Rebirth in 88 starts as a carpenter

Chapter 71 The most educated girl in the village

The old horse was buried in the fields smoothly, and Wu Yuan's status also rose accordingly.

In the eyes of the older generation, it is only when the coffin is well-packed that the deceased can pass away peacefully and smoothly.

Wu Yuan's skills as a coffin maker were recognized, and he knew the rules well.

In addition, since he was a respectable young man in the village, the respect he received was doubled.

Several uncles from Lao Ma's family had good words to say to them all the way back.

He even did not hesitate to mention the long-standing relationship between the two families for nearly a hundred years.

In fact, Wu Yuan can't remember these origins clearly.

On the contrary, my father recalled from time to time when he was brave, and mentioned several families in this village who followed him through life and death.

Among them, the Ma family ranks second, and no one dares to claim the first place.

Next is the Dong family who killed the pig not long ago.

But now it is already a new society, and when his father mentioned it, Wu Yuan was unwilling to pay attention to it.

Now that the old couple has long since turned into dust, Wu Yuan's memory is even more sparse.

But Wu Yuan got what the Ma family uncles wanted.

He's not the kind of person who holds grudges.

Now that Ma Mingjun has become his great disciple, he will receive the support and care he deserves.

But wait until you get to the thank you table.

Ma Weishan, the eldest uncle of the Ma family, let out a long sigh and said, "If the second son leaves like this, leaving a eldest daughter like Mingqi to stay in the harem, how will the dowry be paid in the future?"

Wu Yuan picked up a peanut, chewed it carefully and said, "Brother Ma, don't worry about Mingqi, right? She is the girl with the highest education in our village. When she graduates from the Accounting Secondary School next year, she will be a public servant.

Once you step out of the farm gate, you will immediately become a city dweller."

Ma Weishan sighed unabated: "That's what I say, but this girl doesn't talk much. If she really goes to the city and doesn't have the support of her mother-in-law, then she shouldn't be bullied to death?"

Wu Yuan stopped talking because he found that the ideas of these elders did not make sense.

He just winked at Ma Mingqi to express his recognition and support for her.

As a result, the tall and bright-eyed Ma Mingqi blushed till her neck.

Then Ma Weishan continued: "Let me tell you, instead of going to the city to climb a high tree, Mingqi should go back to the countryside and find someone who is well-matched. Don't even give up the public job. You can't find a living anywhere in the village."

?The girls who work on sewing machines in the village are very good, and their wages are higher than those in the city."

Wu Yuan understood this.

Ma Weishan wanted to recruit Ma Mingqi and give her a backer just like he recruited Ma Mingjun.

But the price of giving up is too high.

Even Wu Yuan felt like he had picked up sesame seeds and lost the watermelon.

Looking at Ma Mingqi again, she buried her head deep in her chest.

There is no attitude at all.

However, Wu Yuan thought, Ma Mingqi graduated in accounting, and it would be more than enough for her to return to Xingwang Furniture Factory to work as an accountant.

In the future, when the factory develops and grows, and she becomes a financial manager, or becomes a financial director, it won't be considered as burying her.

Thinking of this, Wu Yuan was really moved.

But even if Ma Weishan breaks his promise, he will not agree rashly.

Because the key to this matter depends on Ma Mingqi's own intentions.

When I came back to my senses, I heard the whole table talking about how happy the girls working on the sewing machines in the village were, how high their salaries were, and how enviable they were.

Wu Yuan immediately expressed his attitude: "Brother Ma, we don't have to worry about Mingqi. With Mingjun and Mingchao as her backing, she can't be bullied by others."

Ma Weishan slapped his thigh continuously and said: "What kind of backing is there? The Ming Dynasty itself can't even protect itself. It doesn't even have a serious job."

These words made Ma Mingchao's resolute face turn red.

Even his wife Mao Qing could not lift her head.

Wu Yuan smiled: "For a guy like Ming Dynasty, and having served as a soldier, if he is willing, he can make a lot of money by going to the south to work as a bodyguard for the big boss. Brother Ma, you really don't have to worry."

Ma Mingchao's face brightened slightly.

It is true that some comrades came to him to be a bodyguard, but he rejected them all.

The passion in his bones made him rather come back to take care of the few acres of land at home and the two acres of pond at his door than to work for private capitalists.

Unexpectedly, Ma Mingjun took the opportunity to say: "Master, just let my brother be your bodyguard. From now on, when you go to big cities for business, it will be more effective to take my brother with you than to take me with you."

Upon hearing this, Ma Mingchao's eyes really lit up.

He doesn't want to be a bodyguard for outsiders, but he really doesn't object to being a bodyguard for Wu Yuan.

You don't have to leave your hometown to earn money to support your family.

Wu Yuan glanced at his eldest apprentice, "You will really give your master and me problems."

But when it comes to Ma Mingchao's conditions, being his bodyguard is indeed unyielding.

It's just that now he doesn't really need bodyguards, but a full-time driver.

Once the Xingwang Furniture Factory was inaugurated and its business expanded from the county to the whole city, it was determined that we could no longer rely on two wheels to get around.

Wu Yuan has been thinking about this issue since he moved out of the furniture factory.

He was specifically not willing to ride a motorcycle.

A body of a thousand pieces of gold cannot sit down in the hall.

Even for Luoyan and his two children, he must put safety first at all times.

But buying a new car is certainly affordable, but in this remote country, it's a bit too eye-catching.

So Wu Yuan was thinking about buying a second-hand car, as long as it could be driven.

The only requirement is that you need a 24-hour driver and you must be able to repair your own car.

So he asked: "Tomorrow, can you drive?"

Ma Mingchao nodded quickly and said: "Yes, I can do everything from Jeep to Jiefang Daka. I have nothing to learn in the army."

"Can the car be repaired if it breaks down?"

"It's a normal malfunction, not a big problem."

"Okay, is it okay for you to come and work for me after the new year?"

Ma Mingchao was stunned for a moment, until he was kicked by his wife, then he nodded repeatedly and said: "Okay, Boss Wu!"

Then he picked up the wine cup and said, "Boss Wu, I respect you!"

This is it, they hit it off and everyone is happy.

In fact, it is not difficult to find a job in the county with just your driving skills and some thinking.

Ma Mingchao simply didn't want to join the camp and didn't want to ask for help.

Ma Weishan also breathed a sigh of relief.

As soon as the Ma family's affairs were settled, it was the twenty-third year of the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye.

There is only one week left until the Chinese New Year.

Wu Yuan simply gave the factory a holiday, paid everyone's wages, and received an extra month's salary as a year-end bonus.

It doesn't sound like much, but for people these days, it's somewhat of an unexpected surprise.

The only exception is Yang Chenyu from the department store.

The department store will be open until New Year's Eve, and as a salesperson at Xingwang Furniture, she has to stick to her last shift.

Fortunately, the year-end bonus is not missing from her either.

Plus, every time she does an order, she will get one more order of commission.

Yang Chenyu could still keep his composure.

On the second day of the holiday, the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, Wu Yuan drove Lin Miaomiao home.

You won’t leave after the Lunar New Year. Do you really plan to spend the New Year at your uncle’s house?

Lin Miaomiao was reluctant to leave, turning back three times every step of the way.

Wu Yuan knew that the niece was not reluctant to leave him, but because she lost the chance to meet Baojun as soon as she returned to the city.

But it's none of his business.

Nothing is as important as the world between him and Yang Luoyan.

Goodbye to you.
