Chapter 870 New Alliance
When they got to the road, Lin Chen arranged everything for her. Except for calling Huairu sister... everything else was arranged by age. Everyone was on an equal footing when eating. Free and easy...
Besides, Qin Huairu has a good personality, so it's just a formality.
Although Liu Lan often cooks, she is not a maid... She is also Lin Chen's little darling, who can blame her for her abundant capital...
"Hello, Sister Huairu, I...I was not able to get here for a few days, so it took me ten days to get here."
When facing Qin Huairu, who was four years younger than her, Chang Siqi still called her "sister" in a polite manner.
"Yes, yes, everyone understands. I'll take you to meet our other sisters. Tonight is your big day. Huizhen and Wenli are all clamoring to pass on their experience to you..."
After hearing what Qin Huairu said, Chang Siqi became nervous again...
Song has already set up the bridal chamber at home, and she will tell everyone about it tonight...
"Hey, thank you all for accepting me... I will also treat you all as my family."
In this way, Qin Huairu and Chang Siqi walked to the backyard hand in hand.
When Chang Siqi saw Lou Xiaoe and a group of little girls playing hide-and-seek in the yard, she realized that she was not Little Nineteen...
Qin Jingru and the others came over to say hello...
Miss Chang was very happy to be called Sister Siqi. Lin Chen also came to the yard with An Xin, who was about to give birth...
Chang Siqi looked at Chen Xueru and the others who were also holding the little one, and thought to herself, no wonder Lin Chen was so greedy. It turned out that he had a whole family to support... It would be hard to get by without a few dozen dollars a day!
Everyone looked at Chang Siqi's temperament and knew at a glance that she was a lady from a noble family. Although Chen Xueru was beautiful, her family background was not as good as the Chang family.
The only person who can be compared to her is Lou Xiao'e, but this girl is acting crazy now and doesn't look like a lady at all...
"Come on, let's start with Bai Ling. Those who work at the steel mill will be back early this afternoon... and then I'll introduce you to her."
Qin Huairu took the other party aside and introduced them one by one.
……
The day passed quickly, and it was time for the workers at the steel mill to get off work...
Everyone went home from get off work in groups of three or five as usual.
On the way home from get off work, Qiao Zuwang and Liu Haizhong were bragging...
Xu Damao followed Sha Zhu and continued to mock Nan Yi, saying that there was not much time left before the New Year, and if he still had no clue, he should prepare some wine and food.
Today is the fourteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and there is only half a month left until the Chinese New Year.
If tomorrow's blind date is unsuccessful, it will be a bit difficult for Nan Yi. Since no matchmaker is found for him, he can only rely on acquaintances to introduce him.
But this is exactly the result Lin Chen wanted. He arranged for Zhang Fenglan to delay the time for Nan Yi and Gao Shuzhen to go on a blind date... which meant that Nan Yi had no choice. Under the ridicule of the young people in the Siheyuan, Shazhu and Jia Zhang's picking on him... he had to consider marrying Gao Shuzhen, who was married for the second time.
"Don't laugh at me, I won't lose. Silly Zhu, just wait till you get married for me!"
A group of young people were laughing and chasing each other as they ran home...
It was a foregone conclusion that the steel mill would complete its task ahead of schedule, so everyone was in a good mood.
……
Just past Jiudaowanzi
Qiao Zuwang pretended to go to the toilet and sneaked away. Xu Damao in front of him also quietly slipped away and left the team... Xu Damao and Qiao Zuwang had the same idea that everyone in Jiudaowanzi had gone home now... there was no need to worry about meeting them.
In this way, the two of them broke away from the main group and secretly went to Wangfujing.
Qiao Zuwang and Xu Damao will have a drink together tomorrow because they don't have to go to work.
The Jinshan brothers at Xuji Old Tavern in Wangfujing were also notified and are now waiting for the two to arrive.
……
Guanhuyuan
In order to wait for Jin Canlan, Bai Manning and the others, the rules for tonight were changed. Chang Siqi planned to have dinner with everyone and then accompany Lin Chen back to No. 69 Nanluoguxiang...
Chang Siqi had already integrated into the sisterhood in one afternoon. When she saw piles of gold bricks in the underground fortress, even the worldly Miss Chang was shocked, because these things were not from her family. The gold bars of the Chang family were all cast with the word Chang, but these were not marked.
In other words, Lin Chen didn't need her dowry at all, and could support the whole family very well... I misunderstood him! At this moment when she figured it out, Chang Siqi's intimacy with Lin Chen instantly reached 100.
In the evening, big red lanterns were hung everywhere in Guanhu Garden, and the atmosphere immediately became lively...
Now the only ones missing are the two sisters from the Qiao family... Lin Chen plans to find a way to pick them up during the New Year. After all, after tonight, Qiao Zuwang will beg Bai Ling and Lin Chen for help on his knees.
"Brother Lin Chen, is your roasted whole lamb ready? Sister Lan has already started serving the dishes in the kitchen..." Lou Xiao'e asked as she smelled the fragrant aroma.
"It'll only be ready in five minutes, just waiting for the spices to be sprinkled on... How come you're hungry after a crazy afternoon?"
Lou Xiao'e laughed and took Lin Chen's arm without any shyness.
"Hmm, my stomach is growling with hunger! I haven't had roasted whole lamb for a long time. I'm kind of craving this..."
"Let's eat, let's eat. We can't let my little Ezi starve..."
The two began to sprinkle seasoning and prepare to serve.
……
Wangfujing
Xuji Old Tavern
Qiao Zuwang and Xu Damao came over, talking and laughing.
"Comrade, please come in. Are there only two of you?"
Qiao Zuwang smiled at Jinshan and said, "It's just the two of us. Let's arrange a warm seat!"
Who doesn’t want to get closer to the fire to warm up in such cold weather, especially Qiao Zuwang from the south.
"Okay, both of you, please come this way... there's just one empty table."
In this way, the two guys sat down happily...
Qiao Zuwang ordered a pound of Erguotou, a plate of fried peanuts, and a plate of spiced pork head.
Xu Damao was very satisfied. After all, life is not easy these days!
"Thank you, Uncle Qiao. I'm sorry for making you spend money today! I'm so embarrassed..."
Xu Damao and Qiao Zuwang went out to drink today with a mission, which was that Old Xu planned to kick out the He family and the Qiao family...
It would be best if this dinner could be turned into an alliance dinner, so that the two families can unite as one and act together in the courtyard.
The Xu family and the He family simply can't get along, so now they can only win over Qiao Zuwang's family.
Qiao Zuwang chuckled and picked up the wine cup.
"Why are you being so polite to Uncle Qiao? Damao is the first friend I met after coming to Sijiu City! You've been guiding me recently... Uncle Qiao wants to thank you! Come on, let's go for a walk."
Xu Damao also raised his glass
"Okay, okay, I felt like we got along great the first time I saw Uncle Qiao... Let's go, we'll all be family from now on. Let's see who dares to bully us in the courtyard..."
Qiao Zuwang also wanted to form an alliance with the Xu family, so that his position in Siheyuan would be more stable.
During this period of time, Qiao Zuwang has already seen the situation in the courtyard. Yan Bugui is in a group with Yang Laosan, Nan Yi, Cui Dake, Liu Haizhong and the Jia family... Xu family and He family...
Yi Zhonghai’s reputation is average, and the Qiao family doesn’t want to form an alliance with him... Now the Xu family is interested in forming a partnership... Qiao Zuwang is naturally happy.
Now the two companies have hit it off... and reached an agreement.
As for the He family, they are strong in both military and military power and have no interest in forming an alliance with anyone.
