"Okay, okay," Xu Jinfeng said happily, "Then I'll go back and discuss it with your brother-in-law."

Watching Xu Jinfeng's departing figure, Ye Xiaoxiao smiled. In this era, as long as you're willing to work hard, there are plenty of opportunities. She believed that once Xu Jinfeng opened her small shop, her life would get better and better.

At this moment, Li Chenyang came in from outside, carrying car repair tools in his hand.

"Did you go fix someone's car again?" Ye Xiaoxiao asked.

"Yes." Li Chenyang nodded. "I received one yuan."

"That's right," Ye Xiaoxiao said with a smile. "You have a skill; you can't just work for others for free."

Li Chenyang handed the money to Ye Xiaoxiao, saying somewhat embarrassedly, "Honey, you're right. This is a good way; we've helped others without losing out ourselves."

Ye Xiaoxiao looked at him with relief. This man had finally understood a principle: in this era, it's not enough to just have a kind heart; you also need to know how to manage your own life.

"Oh, right," Li Chenyang added, "I heard there's a car repair training course in town, and I'd like to go and learn."

"That's great!" Ye Xiaoxiao perked up immediately. "Go learn! The more you learn, the better. In the future, we won't just be repairing bicycles and tractors, but all sorts of motor vehicles too. The more you learn, the better."

Li Chenyang was amused by his wife's enthusiasm: "Are you trying to train me to be an all-around repairman?"

"Of course," Ye Xiaoxiao said. "Now is a good time; it's always good to learn more skills."

The couple chatted and laughed, and their days were quite warm and cozy. Ye Xiaoxiao thought that although this man could be infuriating at times, as long as he was willing to strive for improvement, there was hope for the future.
