Chen Yuyan asked in surprise, "Did you two rescue the boss's daughter?"
"Yes, Sister Yuyan, I was almost bitten to death by two big wolfhounds. Luckily, the iron chain was a little short, otherwise, my head would have been swallowed whole by the wolfhounds. The wolfhounds' mouths were as big as washbasins."
Chen Yuyan asked in a trembling voice, "There are such big wolfhounds? Oh my god! I'm so scared."
Ye Ya pouted and said, "Sister Yu Yan, the boss's daughter is quite pretty, with a very slim figure, just like a model. However, her face is a bit pale, probably because she was frightened."
Chen Yuyan turned to Ma Yunfei and asked, "Are you very familiar with the boss's daughter?"
"I'm not very familiar with him, but I'm more familiar with the abbot."
Although the abbot was honest, he wasn't a fool. He chimed in, "Sister-in-law, every time I deliver yams to Jiufa Company, the boss's daughter is the one who receives me. The eldest brother doesn't handle these things, so he doesn't associate with the boss's daughter."
Ye Ya pouted and said, "Abbot, you're lying. I think the boss's daughter and Brother Ma are very familiar with each other, and they're very close. She keeps calling him Brother Ma. I'm getting a little angry. If I hadn't seen her being kidnapped by thugs, I would have called her shameless."
Ma Yunfei interrupted, "Have anything happened at the sales outlets lately?"
“Husband, since you left, the abbot and Tuqiu have been helping me. Everything at the sales station is going well, but now we can only collect a little over 10,000 catties of yams every day.”
Ma Yunfei pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that we really need to diversify our business; we can't put all our eggs in one basket like yams."
Wild Girl retorted, "Brother Ma, how is buying yams like a crooked tree? Your analogy is inappropriate, and I object!"
Ma Yunfei laughed and said, "Girl, I did use a less-than-ideal analogy. I should say: Don't cling to one tree, but hug this tree today and that tree tomorrow."
Wild Girl put on a stern face and said angrily, "Brother Ma, what you're saying is getting more and more outrageous. Do you want to find a wife today and another one tomorrow?"
"Girl, I was talking about doing business. Don't misunderstand and try to label me."
The young widow chuckled and said, "My brother will only have one wife in his life; he's a responsible man."
Ye Ya became even more unhappy and said, "Sister Meng, you're wrong. I think Brother Ma can only have two wives in his life. If his illness is cured, he has to marry me. That way, Brother Ma will have two wives in his life."
The young widow chuckled and didn't continue to refute the wild girl. She knew this girl well and knew she was stubborn.
After finishing his meal, Ma Yunfei went to the barbershop.
Grandpa Li was getting a haircut when he saw Ma Yunfei in the mirror. He turned around and asked, "What are you looking at so suspiciously? If you're going to come in, just come in openly. Don't act like a thief all the time."
Ma Yunfei laughed and said, "Grandpa, it's not that I'm afraid of you. I just wanted to see if there were any wooden sticks in the shop. If there were, I would have to be ready to run for my life at any time."
Grandpa Li asked, "I heard you went to City A. Why were you gone for more than ten days?"
"Hehe... I went to discuss business matters. Now, there are fewer and fewer yams, and they are becoming less and less profitable. If this continues, I'll be starving."
Old Master Li snorted and said, "Kid, don't try to fool me. If yams weren't profitable, you wouldn't have been working on them for four months. I think you might have made a fortune, but you're just hiding it because you're afraid the people of Qinglong Town will be envious and someone will steal your job."
Ma Yunfei deliberately sighed and said dejectedly, "Well, I'm just a pretty face now. I look good on the surface, but inside I'm all rotten."
Grandpa Li asked, "Young man, you said last time you would introduce a boyfriend to my daughter in the city, why haven't you said anything about it?"
“Grandpa, I went to the city to discuss business this time, and I also contacted a rich second-generation. The problem is: this rich second-generation has gone abroad and won’t be back for a few days. As soon as he returns, I will contact your daughter immediately and arrange for them to meet as soon as possible.”
Just then, Li Sha returned from outside.
Ma Yunfei exclaimed in surprise, "Sasha, you...you've really transformed! I've only been gone for ten days and you've already lost weight. Congratulations!"
Li Sha said proudly, "There's nothing I can't do if I want to. I said I wanted to lose weight, and I was determined to succeed. In these ten days, I lost a full fifteen pounds. Brother Ma, look, isn't my figure perfect?"
Ma Yunfei nodded repeatedly and exclaimed, "Sasha, your figure is absolutely top-notch now, you can rival those models."
Li Sha asked ambiguously, "Brother Ma, are you a little envious?"
"Haha... I have a wife now, so even if Chang'e descended to earth, I wouldn't be envious."
Grandpa Li glanced at Ma Yunfei and warned, "Kid, I'm warning you: don't be greedy. You're a married man, so don't flirt with my daughter."
"Grandpa, don't worry, your daughter isn't stupid. She wouldn't be interested in me. Besides, there's a rich second-generation guy in the city waiting for your daughter right now."
Old Master Li promised, "Young man, if you introduce a rich second-generation to my daughter, I'll treat you to dinner at the Mantanghong Hotel, order the best dishes, drink the best wine, and I'll even toast you three times."
"Hehe... old man, you're lucky if you don't hit me with a club."
Ma Yunfei said to Li Sha, "Don't go running around lately. Once things are settled, I'll take you to City A for a blind date."
Ma Yunfei left the barbershop, thinking to himself: He rescued Xia Tian. When that old lady returns home from her private plot, she will be stunned. Perhaps she will even faint from fright.
Ma Yunfei underestimated that old lady.
Around noon that day, the old woman returned from her private plot and found the gate ajar. Startled, she quickly pushed it open and saw two wolfhounds lying on the ground, seemingly dead.
The old woman ran over, squatted down, and touched the wolfhound's belly. She discovered that the wolfhound's heart was still beating.
One of the wolfhounds slightly raised its head and winked at the old woman.
The old woman knew something was wrong and rushed into the house. She found that Xia Tian's bedroom door was open and there was a broken pin tumbler lock lying on the floor.
The landlady rushed into Xia Tian's bedroom, only to find it empty.
The old woman looked around and concluded that nothing was missing, only that Xia Tian had run away.
She sighed and murmured, "It seems this group of people who broke in came here specifically for Xia Tian."
