Chapter 140 Reform and Opening Up

In the spring of 1978, Ma Siqing entered the school.

She was assigned to the English major, while Sulan was assigned to the mathematics major.

Ma Siqing felt that she had been reborn and God had been particularly kind to her.

In her previous life, she was in the clothing business. When the country opened up, she seized the opportunity, but her English was not good, and she did not get as much bonus as others.

Otherwise, she would have been rich in her previous life, not just a small rich woman.

But she still went to study English. Her English in her previous life was not too bad, but it was not professional enough.

The four of them began to run back and forth between school and home.

Tong Shiyu and Chen Xiaowei went home less often because of their special majors in special schools.

Ma Siqing and Sulan each supported their own families.

Both of them had the support of their families.

Uncle Wu looked after the small department store for Ma Siqing. The business was so prosperous that he could not handle it alone, so he hired two young people to help.

However, Ma Siqing still handled the purchase of goods by herself.

Every once in a while, a truck would bring goods to the store.

In fact, Ma Siqing brought the goods from a warehouse in the suburbs. Now her children are in the nursery, so she can operate the store during the day when she has no classes.

A year later, the department store grew bigger and turned into a small supermarket.

She made a lot of money, and her wallet gradually became fatter.

Ma Siqing's experience in her previous life finally came in handy, allowing her to reap the first wave of dividends after the end of the movement.

At school, teachers and classmates were amazed at her oral level and knowledge of English.

Ma Siqing just said it was a natural talent.

The days of studying in college were tense and fulfilling. In the systematic study, Ma Siqing made up for all the knowledge gaps in the previous life.

Sulan also sent her child to the nursery.

Xiaohai studied in Jingshi for another semester as a senior high school student, and in 1977 and 1978, he took the college entrance examination with Huzi.

Ma Siqing suggested that they either stay in Jingshi or go to Haishi or the south.

In the end, Huzi went to Haishi Jiaotong University, and Xiaohai went to Zhongda University.

When Sulan was free, she helped in the department store, and Ma Siqing asked Uncle Wu to pay Sulan a salary.

At this time, Uncle Wu was already the person in charge of half of the supermarket.

Ma Siqing was only responsible for purchasing goods, and the sales, hiring of servants and accounting were all handed over to Uncle Wu.

The lives of the people around her became prosperous.

In 1979, the country introduced a major policy of reform and opening up.

This was an inspiring thing.

Foreign products and culture poured into this land that had just experienced a disaster, but it also brought many negative effects.

Ma Siqing felt that the current situation was the best.

The three children were in the first grade in September 1979.

Ma Shuhua quit her job to help take care of the three children. Ma Siqing finally let go of her worries. When Ma Shuhua quit her job and lived in Ma Siqing's house, she called "Mom".

Ma Shuhua cried with joy.

Ma Siqing officially started her days of studying and doing business at the same time.

Uncle Wu, at his age, has actually developed a business skill. His sickly body before can now kill a tiger.

After Xiaomei studied in high school for two years in Jingshi, she was admitted to an art school.

She was prettier than Sulan, taller, and had a good voice. She

was more eye-catching when she arrived at the school, but she did not dare to forget the advice of her family to study hard.

The few who were admitted to the university all had decent grades. Sulan had a hard time studying, but she was diligent.

Uncle Wu helped pick up and drop off the children while watching the store.

In the end, he was too busy, so he hired more people.

The scale of the small supermarket expanded a lot.

In 1980, Jingshi established the Urban Development Corporation, and the real estate industry began to take off.

Ma Siqing knew that the future land prices in Jingshi would be ridiculously high. She had money in her hands, so she might as well buy some land.

In the summer of 1980, Ma Siqing went outside the Fifth Ring Road, picked out a few vacant lots, negotiated the price, and bought them all.

She even told Ma Zizhong not to sell their house and land, and he was not allowed to sell them.

Because the Ma family has a strong background in Beijing, they still have three very large courtyard houses in the alley.

Ma Siqing's second uncle took his family abroad during the reform and opening up because of work needs.

Ma Zizhong thought of dividing the courtyard house among his three children.

Then he gave the smaller house he lives in now to Ma Siqing directly.

Ma Siqing originally refused, because she can afford to buy a house now.

But who would complain about giving up too many houses? It can be regarded as the compensation of the Ma family for the previous life.

Ma Siqing asked Uncle Wu to buy a piece of land as well.

In the past few years, Uncle Wu helped Ma Siqing manage the store and made more money than he could have imagined in his entire life.

It was a pity for Sulan's mother that she didn't have the luck to see all this.

In 1981, Ma Siqing's supermarket had become one of the largest in Beijing.

Ma Siqing also went to purchase goods, but the place she purchased goods from was her own warehouse every time.

Ma Siqing asked Uncle Wu to calculate the sales every day and pay taxes on time.

Because of Ma Zizhong's relationship, almost no one came to check her supermarket, so the business was smooth.

At the end of 1982, several people graduated from university and were assigned jobs.

Sulan was assigned to the best high school in Beijing to teach mathematics, and Ma Siqing stayed in school.

Tong Shiyu and Chen Xiaowei were handed over to the country.

One went to the aerospace research department, and the other joined the National Security Bureau.

Cheng Sihua applied for studying abroad and went to Britain to continue his studies.

Zhong Guofan was assigned back to the local post office after graduation.

Xiaojun stayed in school to teach.

Uncle Wu was so happy that he cried like a baby while holding Baiyun's memorial tablet, and he kept saying, "Look, the children have all made it, don't worry."

Ma Siqing sighed that her identity in this life was very different from that in the previous life.

Before embarking on a new journey, the two families returned to Danjiang.

Sulan wanted to go home to pay tribute to her mother, and Ma Siqing also wanted to go back to see her, so she brought her children and a dozen people back to Danjiang during the holiday.

On the street of Danjiang, Lin Chunhua met Ma Siqing.

It was just like the scene when Ma Siqing met Lin Chunhua at the airport in the previous life.

But now Lin Chunhua no longer has the face she was proud of, and she has suffered a lot of torture in the Xu family, and her body is no longer the same as before.

Lin Chunhua saw Ma Siqing and rushed up quickly.

She wanted to settle accounts with Ma Siqing.

But she was stopped by Ma Shuhua.

"You crazy woman, what are you going to do to my daughter?"

Lin Chunhua looked at Ma Shuhua: "Are you Ma Siqing's biological mother?"

Ma Shuhua: "Where did your little beggar come from?"

"Ma Siqing's biological mother's family is not Ma Boheng's family?" Lin Chunhua realized that she was being plotted against.

"How is it possible? How could such a small and insignificant family be our Siqing's family? Our Siqing's family is one of the most prestigious Ma families in Beijing."

Ma Shuhua knew that the person in front of her was Lin Chunhua, the vicious woman who tried to take Ma Siqing's identity and get by her side.

Ma Siqing: "You went to Ma Boheng's house and became Ma Boheng's daughter. Did you think that was my home, so you went there?"

"Someone gave me a token, saying that with those two tokens I could go to the Ma family and become the eldest daughter. I really went there and had a good time for a while. I didn't expect it to be fake, fake. Haha, I became a fake Ma Siqing, haha, haha!"

Lin Chunhua walked away madly.
