Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang were both grown boys, the latter being in his rebellious period. How could he tolerate such humiliation? The two brothers exchanged glances and understood each other's thoughts. They absolutely could not let Yan Jiecheng come home.

As long as Yan Jiecheng returns to the Yan family, it means that things will not end well. It is best to wait until Yan Jiecheng is released and then deal with the other party first, so that he dare not return to the Yan family again.

Yes, just do it!

The two brothers did not think of telling Yan Bugui about their plan, as they were afraid that their father would not agree. They just needed to wait until Yan Jiecheng was released.

Back in the courtyard, life went on. Chen Xi compiled a prescription and recorded it. The experiment on Xu Damao was not finished. Fortunately, there were workers with the same symptoms in the steel mill.

After so long, Chen Xi has also figured out a universal version of the prescription that can increase the survival rate of that thing. The female version is to promote ovulation.

Of course, he had no idea what to do if the patient showed no reaction at all.

Chen Xi handed over the prepared prescription again, and Deputy Director Li helped contact the people in the medical department. Chen Xi had already caught the attention of the upper management, and this time he made the leaders above take notice of him.

Someone from the medical department took the initiative to contact Chen Xi and asked if he was willing to work in the hospital and set up a department of traditional Chinese medicine.

Chen Xi refused, saying that he was fine staying at the steel mill. There was no shortage of good doctors in the hospital, but there was a shortage of good doctors in the steel mill.

This spirit once again moved the top leaders. What a good comrade! He must be rewarded.

Chen Xi was promoted to deputy chief of the Medical Department, receiving an 18th-level salary and additional subsidies. If he was required to make additional visits, the consultation fees would be calculated separately.

The Chen family was really excited now. Both brothers were deputy section chiefs, especially Chen Xi. He married a college graduate whose salary increased every year. Sooner or later, she would become a cadre.

Following the previous two families, Chen Xi once again sponsored two needy families in the Siheyuan. Suddenly, his popularity in the Siheyuan reached the top.

Even those who did not receive any funding admired Chen Xi's actions from the bottom of their hearts. That was real money, and not everyone could do that.

The street office even presented Chen Xi with a banner, and the steel rolling mill also gave Chen Xi the title of advanced individual. He was definitely the big winner.

Amidst the harmony, there are always some dissenting voices, such as Jia Dongxu, who said indignantly: "Why don't you help my family? My family is in such a difficult situation!!"

In response, Chen Xi gave a well-reasoned answer: "It is true that your Jia family is in trouble, but you have found the wrong person."

"What do you mean?"

"You, Jia Dongxu, are not an orphan, right? No matter whether Aunt Zhang remarried or not, she is still your mother. If your Jia family is in trouble, why would you look for me instead of your biological mother?"

"..."

"The first uncle is your master, and he has a good relationship with your family. He should help you. In addition, your mother married the first uncle. Even if she doesn't have a job, the first uncle's salary is considered the common property of the couple. She has the right to control half of it."

Jia Zhangshi and Jia Dongxu's eyes suddenly lit up, and Yi Zhonghai felt upset.

"If you have any trouble, just go to your mother. How can your mother ignore you?" Chen Xi pointed to the Jia family's room: "Bang Geng is the only grandson of the Jia family."

Yi Zhonghai was already holding his heart and breathing heavily.

Jia Dongxu turned to look at his mother, but Jia Zhang was immersed in her own world. Yi Zhonghai's salary was half of hers?

Doesn't that mean you can take painkillers however you want in the future?

Ignoring the tit-for-tat between the mother and son of the Jia family, Chen Xi patted his butt and went home, keeping his achievements and fame to himself.

The one who was spanked by Chen Xi came over to him with seductive eyes when he got home, and kept drawing circles on his chest with her fingers: "Come on~ Let's celebrate~"

Chapter 309 Shadow Guard Marries

Yan Jiecheng was released. A month's work had left him exhausted and completely drained. He walked slowly on the road, as if his feet weighed a thousand pounds.

Yan Jiecheng was worried and his mind was full of thoughts about the future. He was dragged into the alley without paying attention. He looked closely and saw that it was his two younger brothers.

Yan Jiefang had a serious expression on his face and said solemnly, "Yan Jiecheng! You have no relationship with the Yan family now. You are not allowed to go home."

"Get lost!" Yan Jiecheng still acted like a big brother: "I have nothing to do with you. It has nothing to do with you."

"Yan Jiecheng, I'm warning you, don't be shameless. Do you know that your family has been hurt by you?"

Yan Jiecheng was furious and was about to beat Yan Jiefang, but he was hit on the head by Yan Jiekuang from behind.

Yan Jiecheng staggered a few steps and touched himself, finding that he was bleeding.

Yan Jiekuang was terrified. He didn't intend to be so cruel.

Yan Jiecheng's eyes turned red. How dare this little brat hit his big brother?

"I will kill you!" Yan Jiecheng roared and rushed over, pressing Yan Jiekuang under him, and pinching Yan Jiekuang's neck tightly with both hands.

Yan Jiekuang's eyes rolled back due to being pinched. Yan Jiefang was also terrified. Seeing that his little brother was about to die, he gritted his teeth, picked up the fallen stick, and hit Yan Jiecheng hard on the head.

The noise in the alley still alarmed the people outside. Some kind-hearted people took the initiative to find the police. When the police arrived, Yan Jiecheng had already fallen to the ground and his life or death was unknown, with blood flowing from his head.

Yan Jiekuang was not in a much better condition, he was strangled to death. Yan Jiekuang's pupils trembled and he leaned against the wall. It was obvious that after he calmed down, he was frightened by the scene in front of him.

Don’t say anything, just take them all away.

After seeing his two sons at the police station, Yan Bugui suddenly seemed to age ten years older. He beat his chest and stamped his feet, thinking how unfortunate his family was!

Yan Jiecheng was beaten into a vegetative state. He did not die, but he had excessive intracranial bleeding and the blood was pressing on his brain nerves. The doctors could not say when he would wake up.

Yan Jiekuang's vocal cords were injured by being pinched, which did not affect his speech, but his voice would be hoarse from then on.

Yan Jiefang didn't suffer any injuries, but beating his elder brother like that with his own hands was a huge psychological trauma for him. Then, being taken to the police station and frightened him, he completely collapsed mentally.

Strictly speaking, this matter was also an internal fight among the Yan family. The third aunt cried and said that it was just a fight between three brothers. It was not a criminal case but a family dispute.

The family members of the parties involved don't care, and the police station is too lazy to meddle in other people's business, so let it be. Take your people back and discipline them properly. Even though they are a family, don't use such harsh methods next time.

The Yan family's savings, which were not generous to begin with, were reduced again due to the treatment of Yan Jiecheng and Yan Jiekuang. It was unknown how many years they had saved that little bit of money. It was originally intended for Yan Jiecheng to marry a wife and find a job, but now it was all gone.

The money was spent, but the patient was not cured. Yan Jiecheng has become a vegetable. He was carried back to the Yan family and lay in bed, unaware of anything. The third aunt cried every day, but she couldn't just ignore him.

Now that Yan Jiecheng has become like this, no one is holding on to the previous severance of ties. They can't just watch Yan Jiecheng die outside.

At this point, Yan Bugui also learned from the children that everything was instigated by Chen Xi. He was furious and went straight to the Chen family.

Facing Yan Bugui's questioning, Chen Xi sat there calmly, not panicking at all: "Third Uncle, you are making no sense. What did I originally say?"

"..."

"I just explained the facts, the cause and effect of this incident and the possible impact. Did I personally tell Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiekuang to hit Yan Jiecheng with a club?"

“You didn’t say it directly, but you guided it!”

"Then go report it to the police and see what they say."

Yan Bugui remained silent. He knew it was useless to report to the police as they could not find any evidence. Chen Xi's words could be understood as having impure motives, but he did not specify what to do. Everything was understood by the Yan family themselves.

"Because of Yu Li, is that so?" Yan Bugui's glasses were flashing with a cold light, and he wished he could die with Chen Xi in his arms.

"What does it have to do with her, Uncle? Stop imagining nonsense and work hard. Yan Jiecheng is gone, but you still have a family to support."

Yan Bugui understood Chen Xi's meaning in an instant. Stop here, otherwise you will lose your job.

Yan Bugui felt so stuffy in his chest that he almost vomited blood. He gritted his teeth, turned around and left.

Yan Jiecheng is already in this situation. He has to consider his family and cannot lose his job!

To sum up the whole thing, it was Yan Jiecheng's own fault. Why did he harass Yu Li for no reason?

Yingwei and Yu Li got married and held a banquet in the yard where he lived. The chef was of course Chen Xi. Many leaders from the steel mill attended the banquet and gave Yingwei face.

In the eyes of the leaders, Chen Xi had more face. After learning that Yu Li did not have a job, Deputy Director Li said nothing at the time, and then approved a note.

Yu Li became a temporary worker in the steel rolling mill, working in the logistics department, and would be able to become a regular employee when the time was right.

Yu Li's parents were extremely excited. This son-in-law was a great choice. Especially Yu's mother was extremely satisfied. Her sister-in-law even came to show off, saying that their daughter got a job in a steel rolling mill. It was no big deal, because her daughter got one too.

The person Yu Haitang found was the nephew of Director Yang. With the help of this relationship, she entered the Propaganda Department. However, this time the title of factory beauty had nothing to do with her. Compared with Kawakami Tomie, she was far inferior.

The two sisters both work in a steel mill, but they are not close. Firstly, they are cousins, and secondly, they have a bad relationship behind their backs.

The relationships they had when entering the factory were obvious. Yu Haitang was from Director Yang's faction, while Yu Li was from Deputy Director Li's faction. If there was nothing to do, they should just stay out of it.

Of course, Yu Li cares most about Chen Wei and his will. She doesn't want Deputy Director Li behind Chen Wei to think too much because of Yu Haitang's matter.

After Yingwei got married, he also contacted Chen Xi privately to ask about the child.

Chen Xi: [Can you give birth to a child? ]

Shadow Guard: [Yes, I ate the Human-Human Fruit. After switching states, I am no different from a normal person.]

Chen Xi: [Then why weren’t you born in the world of One Piece? ]

Shadow Guard: [I deliberately used contraception. That world is too dangerous. I don’t want my child to be a pirate after birth.]

Chen Xi: [Since you can have children, then have them. You need to fit in with this era. In this era, people will always gossip about you if you don’t have children. It doesn’t affect anything, but it’s annoying to hear.]

Shadow Guard: [Okay, I'll listen to the boss.]

Chen Xi: [There are no missions this time, just live your life well. It's a rare opportunity for you to become a human, so experience the life of an ordinary human. You used to be full of fighting and killing, so it's time for you to calm down.]

Shadow Guard: [Boss, I'm fine. I'm mentally normal.]

Chen Xi: [That is also the credit of Mahavairocana. After practicing in Tianyin Temple for so many years, he has washed away a lot of the murderous aura in you.]

Shadow Guard: [Was I so obvious before? ]

Chen Xi: [Well, it's like a sword out of its sheath. It's much better now. Just let it settle down slowly. Just treat yourself as an ordinary person. Different worlds require different ways of living.]

Shadow Guard: [Okay, Boss, I understand. I will live my life well.]

Yingwei and Yu Li were living a prosperous life, and Chen Xi's reputation was growing. Many difficult and complicated cases began to be treated in his clinic.

Chen Xi has now become Deputy Director Li's most useful magic weapon for building relationships with the outside world. Everyone in the upper-level leadership circle knows that there is a Chinese medicine doctor with excellent medical skills in the steel rolling mill, who is also a good cook.

Even though Chen Xi knows so many leaders, he is very dutiful. If you want to find him, you have to go through Deputy Director Li. He never contacts other leaders privately.

The most taboo thing in life and in standing on the right side is to be vague. If you have a little more connections, you will not be able to recognize yourself. Chen Xi certainly won't be arrogant. He still has to rely on Deputy Director Li as a backer to get through this special period.

So Chen Xi didn't go anywhere and just worked as a factory doctor in the steel rolling mill. No matter how strong the wind was outside, it would not reach him.

Half of 1963 passed quickly, summer arrived, and the yard became lively again. It was so hot at home that everyone in the yard came out to cool off and sit in the yard chatting about everything.

The older generation of women gathered together, the younger wives gathered together, and the old men gathered together, smoking, chatting, and occasionally bragging, and then bursting into laughter.

Chen Xi didn't put on airs as a deputy section chief. He just chatted with other extras like an ordinary resident. The real protagonists of the courtyard house had no intention of coming out to chat.

Yi Zhonghai and Jia Zhangshi's life was a mess, just like in a spy movie, with all kinds of hiding of money, and when things got out of hand it became an anti-Japanese war movie, and the couple started fighting directly. The good news was that there were no more pig squeals.

Liu Haizhong's family was not much better. There was a fight every few days. It didn't matter if people were injured, they could just recover slowly, but so many things in the house were damaged that he was shivering with heartache.

There is nothing much to say about the Yan family. Yan Jiecheng hasn't woken up yet. He drinks rice soup every day to stay alive, and he has become very thin.

The Jia family was still the same, barely able to eat enough, and only managed to hold on thanks to Qin Huairu's various efforts to defraud money from Sha Zhu.

Sha Zhu's life is not going well. He and the deaf old lady are now disgusted with each other. Why didn't he realize that the old lady was so selfish before? Sister Qin's family is in such a difficult situation, why doesn't she understand at all?

The deaf old lady also couldn't stand Shazhu. He was just a fool. If she hadn't been counting on him to take care of things, she would have kicked him out long ago.

Xu Damao's life remained the same. Since he was able to go to the countryside, he basically stayed there and rarely returned to the courtyard. He didn't like the looks of those people in the courtyard.

Xu Damao would send some food back home every now and then so that Xu's mother would not go hungry. Xu's father had already experienced a second spring in life, and he didn't mind that his new widow had a child, as long as she could give birth.

It was at this time that the shadow guard brought Yu Li to Chen Xi's house, wanting him to check if she was pregnant.

"Brothers, you guys continue chatting. I'm going to go back and take a look." Chen Xi said hello to the others and went home.

At the Chen family, Chen Xi felt Yu Li's pulse and nodded: "She is indeed pregnant."

Yu Li was overjoyed and smiled for less than three seconds before she realized something and quickly controlled her expression.

Kawakami Tomie, on the other hand, smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to be like this. We don't mind."

This made Yu Li feel a little embarrassed, so she just smiled and said nothing.

The shadow guard patted her on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. If you really minded, I wouldn't have brought you here."

After hearing this, Yu Li felt relieved.

"The pulse looks good. Just be careful not to do any heavy work. I'll send you something later that will be good for the fetus."

"Okay, thank you, little brother." Yu Li was not polite. They were all family. Besides, if the Chen family didn't want to be extinct, they would have to rely on her.

Shadow Guard couldn't cook, and Yu Li's cooking skills weren't very good either, so Chen Xi simply said, "You guys can come to my house for dinner from now on. I'll cook for the two of us, and I'll cook for four people."

Yu Li looked at the shadow guard, who nodded. Of course he wouldn't feel embarrassed. Since his boss had spoken, he just had to listen.

"Don't eat in the cafeteria at noon. Ask Tomie to bring you lunch later."

"Will this... be too much trouble for my younger brother and sister-in-law?"

"It's no big deal, let's start from tomorrow."

"Well...ok."
