Ma Yunfei suggested, "Xiao Jie, I think: to deal with a rogue, you have to use a rogue's methods. Otherwise, it's like a scholar encountering a soldier—you can't reason with him. I have a friend who's very skilled in martial arts. He comes to City A every two or three days. Next time he comes, why not have him beat up your ex-husband and make him behave? Of course, when you beat him up, he'll be confused, but he might guess that the beating is related to your argument."
Xiaojie hesitated and said, "That's not really a good idea."
"Xiao Jie, you have to use underhanded methods to deal with underhanded people. This is called fighting poison with poison. Otherwise, you will be inconvenienced."
"Well... then let your buddy give it a try, but whatever you do, don't cripple or kill my ex-husband."
"Hehe... My buddy's specialty is whipping people with a belt. Even if you whip his buttocks raw, it won't leave any internal injuries, and he won't die. I believe that once he's been beaten, he'll never dare to be arrogant again."
Xia Tian interjected, "Brother Ma, your buddy Abbot looks like a brute. If he beats Xiao Jie's ex-husband until he's bruised and battered, he'll never dare to set foot in Xiao Jie's house again."
"Then it's settled. Xiaojie, tell me where your ex-husband lives and send me his photo. I just saw him briefly, but I'm not good at recognizing people, and I'm afraid I won't recognize him if he changes his clothes."
Without saying a word, Xiaojie took out a photo album from the drawer, pulled out a few photos of her ex-husband, and handed them to Ma Yunfei.
She took out another piece of paper and wrote down her ex-husband's address.
"Brother Ma, I'm counting on you then, but please make sure nothing goes wrong."
"Heh... It's just that your ex-husband's butt was beaten raw, it's not even considered a minor injury, nobody takes this kind of case seriously."
Xiao Jie said gratefully, "Brother Ma, thank you very much."
Summer sighed heavily, her face turning depressed.
Xiao Jie asked, "Xia Tian, I noticed you seem to have something on your mind."
“Xiaojie, lately my dad has been pressuring me to get married. First, he introduced me to a bookworm, which I rejected. A couple of days ago, he introduced me to a rich second-generation. Ma Ge and I discussed putting on a show, and Yueyue has to play a role in it.”
Xiao Jie asked curiously, "What kind of play is this?"
"Xiaojie, you need to lend me Yueyue for two hours."
Xiao Jie pouted and said, "Xia Tian, if you like children, you should get married soon. Why do you always resist your dad introducing you to boyfriends? Maybe this rich second-generation heir is a prince charming, and you might feel an electric shock when you meet him."
"Impossible. I felt like throwing up the moment I heard the name of this rich kid."
Xiao Jie asked curiously, "What's his name?"
"Call him Wang Xiaobian."
Upon hearing this, Ma Yunfei chuckled.
Xiao Jie covered her mouth, lowered her head, and smiled silently for a while.
"Summer, the rich kid your dad introduced you to is such a weirdo. You can tell he's a mama's boy just from his name."
"Yes, think about it, if he were an ambitious man, he probably would have changed his name long ago."
Ma Yunfei explained understandingly, “As soon as I heard the name, I knew it was an only child. In the countryside, it’s customary to give an only child a girl’s name or an animal’s name to make him easier to raise, such as ‘Yatou’ or ‘Goudan’.”
Xia Tian frowned and said, "I'm a name enthusiast. I can tell what kind of person someone is just by looking at their name. Take Brother Ma for example, his name is very bold. Look at Ma Yunfei, what a resounding name!"
Ma Yunfei shrugged and explained with a smile, "My name isn't exactly grand. Back then, my mother was pregnant with me and went on a trip, but she unexpectedly went into premature labor halfway there and gave birth to me by the roadside. My mother looked at the white clouds drifting in the sky and casually named me Ma Yunfei."
Xia Tian said, "Your mother must be an intellectual. If she were a country person, she might have given you a name like Wild or Grass."
Ma Yunfei thought to himself: My future incarnation is an abandoned orphan. It is said that a pregnant woman gave birth to him in a grove of trees near Majiawan Village and then abandoned him.
Based on general reasoning, Ma Yunfei's mother must have been pregnant out of wedlock, meaning that Ma Yunfei is an illegitimate child.
The reputation of an illegitimate child is terrible. Luckily, the birth mother abandoned him. If she had kept him with her, he would have been branded as an illegitimate child and people would have gossiped about him behind his back.
Ma Yunfei sometimes wonders: What kind of person was my mother in my next life?
She abandoned Ma Yunfei on the roadside, and more than 20 years have passed in the blink of an eye. Has she never come looking for him?
Ma Yunfei's descendants have never left Majiawan. If his birth mother came to find him, it should be effortless for her.
Clearly, his birth mother never came looking for him; she probably thought he was dead, carried off by wolves, or starved to death.
Ma Yunfei suddenly had a thought: My birth mother in my next life didn't come looking for me, but I can do the opposite and help my next life find her.
I am now living in my future life, trying to find his mother, as a way of doing my part. If it weren't for this future life, I might have suffered a heart attack and never returned to the human world.
Ma Yunfei sighed.
Xiao Jie asked, "Brother Ma, is something bothering you too?"
Ma Yunfei evaded the question by saying, "I was thinking that Xia Tian's father was forcing her to get married, which was really difficult for him. Moreover, he introduced her to one strange man after another, which was really ridiculous."
Xiao Jie agreed, "Xia Tian, I have no objection to you borrowing my daughter to act in a play, but you have to promise me one thing in return."
Xia Tian asked, "Xiao Jie, we're like family. Whatever you ask for, as long as I can do it, I'll agree."
Xiao Jie said quietly, "Xia Tian, you have a good older brother, but I'm a poor only child with no brothers or sisters. Could you ask Brother Ma to be my godbrother too?"
Xia Tian readily agreed, "No problem. If Brother Ma agrees to become sworn siblings with you, I'll give it my all. Brother Ma is my sworn brother, and he's also your sworn brother. We'll be even closer than family."
Xiao Jie turned her face and asked Ma Yunfei, "Brother Ma, what do you think?"
Ma Yunfei was in a dilemma. He had too many god-sisters, but the problem was that the emotional entanglements between these god-sisters and him were causing him a lot of trouble.
Ye Ya is his god-sister; Li Sha also wants to be his god-sister; Xia Tian is his god-sister; if he agrees to let Xiao Jie be his god-sister as well, then he will have four god-sisters.
This might not be too much, does it?
Besides his god-sister, he also has Zhang Mengmeng, his god-older sister.
In addition, Ma Yunfei has two godfathers: one is the town mayor Gu Le, and the other is Yi Qiangzhun from Longwang Mountain.
