Renowned economist Ma Yunfei is reborn to the year 1990. To his surprise, he finds himself with a beautiful wife and an obedient daughter. He vows to become the world's richest man and create a...
The three children brought by the eldest sister-in-law burst into tears, their cries shaking the heavens and the earth.
Seeing that Deputy Mayor Chang Xiaobao was unable to back down, Ma Yunfei looked helpless.
Suddenly, Ma Yunfei thought: If Erlv complains to his aunt, Liu Fei might soon sever his godmother-son relationship with him, and the town mayor might order the yam sales station to close down.
If this happens, Ma Yunfei's career will plummet.
Although he has already earned his first pot of gold, two million, this figure is still far from being the world's richest person.
Ma Yunfei realized that he needed to find a new patron.
Chang Xiaobao, the deputy mayor, is the youngest and most promising of the three deputy mayors in Qinglong Town. He will take over as mayor sooner or later.
With that in mind, Ma Yunfei decisively walked into the small courtyard of the VIP ward.
He said, "Sister-in-law, the deputy mayor is in the hospital and can't handle your affairs. How about this, I'll help you solve this problem."
The woman looked up at Ma Yunfei and asked, "Are you from the town government?"
Ma Yunfei said noncommittally, "Sister-in-law, I will handle this to your satisfaction."
Deputy Mayor Chang Xiaobao looked at Ma Yunfei. He felt that the man looked familiar, as if he had seen him before, but he didn't remember him well.
Ma Yunfei helped his sister-in-law up and said, "Sister-in-law, you have to believe me, I will satisfy you."
The eldest sister-in-law left with Ma Yunfei.
Ma Yunfei pulled his sister-in-law into his hospital room and asked, "Sister-in-law, your only request is for the village to refund you the 1,000 yuan for the fish fry. Is that all you want?"
"Leader, I'll be satisfied as long as the village can refund me 1,000 yuan."
Ma Yunfei took out a thousand yuan from his pocket and said, "I'll cover this thousand yuan for the village first. In a few days, I'll talk to the village about it. Give me a receipt, then go home. From now on, don't bother anyone else."
The woman said happily, "Leader, you are so kind, you are truly the savior of the people!"
Ma Yunfei took out a piece of paper and a pen.
The older sister-in-law was somewhat educated; she wrote a receipt and left happily with her three children.
Ma Yunfei effortlessly helped Deputy Mayor Chang Xiaobao out of a difficult situation.
He muttered to himself, "Damn it, money can make the devil turn the millstone!"
The deputy mayor was curious when a strange young man helped him out of his predicament. He walked to the entrance of the VIP ward and watched as the woman entered a room.
In less than fifteen minutes, the sister-in-law left happily with her three children.
Clearly, the young man handled his sister-in-law's problem well, and to her satisfaction.
Chang Xiaobao walked into Ma Yunfei's ward with a puzzled look and asked, "Young man, thank you."
"Deputy Mayor, this is what I should do."
"Young man, what's your name? Where do you work?"
Ma Yunfei smiled and said, "Deputy Mayor, I am just an ordinary citizen from Qinglong Town, a farmer."
"Young man, I saw that woman leave happily. I'd like to ask: how did you handle it?"
“Deputy Mayor, the woman only wanted to get back the 1,000 yuan fee for the fish fry, so I gave her 1,000 yuan and asked her to write me a receipt. I was just about to give the receipt to you.”
Ma Yunfei respectfully handed the receipt to Deputy Mayor Chang Xiaobao.
Chang Xiaobao asked in surprise, "You gave your sister-in-law your own personal money?"
"Yes, if we don't give your sister-in-law money, she will keep making a scene. The deputy mayor has a head injury and needs to rest. If your sister-in-law makes a scene here for three days and three nights, wouldn't that make it impossible for the deputy mayor to have any peace?"
Chang Xiaobao asked, "A thousand yuan is no small sum. You seem to be quite wealthy."
"Deputy Mayor, I recently did some small business and just made a thousand yuan."
The deputy mayor said, "Once I'm discharged from the hospital, I'll take care of this and have the village give you 1,000 yuan."
“Deputy Mayor, regarding the money for the fish fry, I questioned the woman in detail. When she put the fish fry into the pond, there was no evidence that she put in 1,000 yuan worth of fish fry. Therefore, the village will never compensate for this amount. My suggestion is: let's just let this matter go.”
"Young man, you're not going to keep this money?"
"Yes, I've asked about the whole story, and of course I know the village won't compensate me for this money, and I don't intend to get it back."
"Young man, why did you do that?"
“Deputy Mayor, to put it nicely, I feel sorry for this woman. To put it bluntly, I want to help you out of this predicament. After all, you are the official in charge of Qinglong Town, and as a citizen, I naturally hope to be able to get on your good side.”
Ma Yunfei spoke frankly and without any pretense.
Chang Xiaobao said appreciatively, "Young man, I'll remember you."
Ma Yunfei rushed to complete the discharge procedures and then went directly to the sales station.
Chen Yuyan said happily, "Honey, you've survived this ordeal, you're bound to have good fortune. Go home quickly and get some rest for a few days."
"Honey, I've been sleeping for a week, and my back and waist are aching. I'd rather come and do some work."
Ye Ya came running over, complaining, "Brother Ma, you were discharged from the hospital without telling me, making me make a wasted trip to the clinic. When I saw your bed was empty, I was shocked and thought you had died."
"Wild girl, can't you say something auspicious? Do you want me to sacrifice myself?"
“Brother Ma, if you were to sacrifice yourself, I would definitely follow you to the underworld.”
"Wild girl, don't be silly. If you come with me, what will happen to your father?"
“My dad has someone to take care of him; the woman next door is very kind to him.”
Ma Yunfei asked curiously, "That woman is so good to your father, doesn't her husband have any objections?"
"Hehe... That woman is a widow. Her husband went hunting in the mountains three years ago and accidentally fell off a cliff, dying on the spot. It was my father who managed to find her husband's body."
Ma Yunfei asked with great interest, "Does your sister-in-law have children?"
"Yes, I have a ten-year-old daughter."
"How old is that woman?"
"In his thirties, I guess."
“Ye Ya, I think you should act as a matchmaker for your father and let that woman marry him. Your father is in his fifties and she is in her thirties, so they are a good match in terms of age.”
Wild Girl frowned and said, "Brother Ma, what nonsense are you talking about? My dad is old enough to be that sister-in-law's father, how can we get married?"
“Wild girl, a twenty-year age gap is nothing. I said: You need to hurry up and find a match for your father. If you’re too shy, let me do it.”
Ma Yunfei's plan was: if he could get married on the first try, then someone would take care of him.
Wild Girl could stay in Qinglong Town without any worries, protecting the young widow on one hand and helping out at the sales station on the other.
Even if this yam sales station is shut down, Ma Yunfei will still pursue other ventures, and he needs reliable helpers.
