"Yes, since he was injured by Pete last time, he has become more cautious. Every time I go out, he will protect me every step of the way. He is a very dedicated bodyguard." Wang Aiqin went to the coffee.
Put a piece of sugar in it, then pick up a small spoon and stir the coffee gently.
Ma Xiaoyao didn't add sugar, but directly picked up the coffee and took a sip: "It's really bitter."
"Since it's bitter, then add sugar." Wang Aiqin said with a smile.
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "I'm not used to adding sugar, so I'd better drink this bitter coffee." Ma Xiaoyao never likes sweets.
The two of them chatted with each other, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Buzz buzz..."
The sound of a mobile phone vibrating broke the harmonious atmosphere.
It was Ma Xiaoyao's cell phone that was ringing. Ma Xiaoyao said sorry to Wang Aiqin, then took out his cell phone and answered: "Hello?"
"Secretary Ma, I finally got through to you." Liu Mao's loud voice came from the phone.
"It's Deputy Secretary Liu." Ma Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Nothing happened in Gaohe Township recently, right?"
"No, Gaohe Township is as good as before, except that Ding Dahu occasionally makes some noise... But with Deputy Township Chief Zhu and I suppressing it, Ding Dahu can't make any big waves..." Liu Mao said to Gaohe
Reported on the situation in the township.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I'm not here during this period, thank you for your hard work."
"What's the hard work? This is what I should do. Secretary Ma, when will you come back?" Liu Mao asked.
"In a few days, I still have some things to deal with." Ma Xiaoyao thought for a while and said.
"Okay, when you come back, let me know in advance." Liu Mao said.
After chatting for a few words, Ma Xiaoyao ended the call.
Wang Aiqin picked up the coffee and took a sip: "Did someone from Gaohe Township call you?"
Ma Xiaoyao put away his phone and nodded: "Yes, it's Liu Mao, deputy secretary of the party committee. He reported to me some situations in Gaohe Township." In Ma Xiaoyao's heart, Wang Aiqin is a very trustworthy friend, so he doesn't hide many things from Wang Aiqin.
, In fact, speaking of it, Ma Xiaoyao was able to establish a foothold in Gaohe Township and successfully establish a high prestige, which was entirely the result of Wang Aiqin's help. If Wang Aiqin had not funded the road construction in Gaohe Township and established a large-scale breeding base in Gaohe Township,
It is absolutely impossible for Ma Xiaoyao to gain a foothold in such a short period of time.
"Xiaoyao, you have finally gained a foothold in Gaohe Township. The cadres in Gaohe Township have all been subdued by you." Wang Aiqin said with a smile.
"I always convince people with reason. If you respect me, I will give you another foot. If you try to play tricks on me, I won't make it easy for you." Ma Xiaoyao sighed: "I just went to Gaohe Township.
When I was a student, I was discriminated against, and many cadres gave me a hard time. If I hadn't been lucky at that time, my end would have been miserable... Life in this life is really not easy." Ma Xiaoyao picked up the coffee and took a big sip.
, the bitterness of the coffee slowly flowed into Ma Xiaoyao's heart, causing Ma Xiaoyao to frown involuntarily.
"Yes, it is really not easy to be a human being. There are too many things we face every day. Life is really tiring and hard." Wang Aiqin said with deep sympathy.
Ma Xiaoyao put down the coffee: "This society is so unfair. Some people have lived a good life since they were born. When they grow up, they don't have to run around and work hard for life. Some people have lived a very hard life since they were born.
, have poor food and poor housing, have to bear the huge pressure of life since childhood, and live a life that is not happy at all. Why is this? We are all human beings, so why is the gap in life so huge? What is the reason? Where is the fairness?"
"There is no reason, and there is no fairness." Wang Aiqin shook her head: "People are selfish. No matter who they are, they just want to live a good life and want to live a life of superiority. To put it bluntly, selfishness is at work.
." Wang Aiqin has been in the shopping mall for so many years and has a clear understanding of the good and evil of human nature.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "You are right, people are selfish. As long as they are selfish, they will find ways to pursue higher enjoyment."
"Okay, let's not talk about such boring topics, let's talk about something pleasant." Wang Aiqin said with a smile.
"Okay." Ma Xiaoyao had no objection.
Next, the two began to discuss the construction prospects of Gaohe Township and the management of the breeding base, and more than an hour passed before they knew it.
"Buzz buzz..." The mobile phone in Wang Aiqin's pocket suddenly rang.
Wang Aiqin put down her coffee, reached into her pocket and took out a beautiful mobile phone, and pressed the answer button: "Hello..." After hearing a few words, Wang Aiqin frowned tightly: "Didn't I tell you?
The city is dealing with some things now, and I can’t go back for the time being... What? What happened? I have only left the company for a few days? You have caused such a big mess for me, what are you doing for a living... Okay, no.
Explained, I will go back right now, and when I go back, I will deal with you severely!"
After Wang Aiqin hung up the phone, Ma Xiaoyao asked: "Something happened to the company?"
Wang Aiqin took a deep breath: "There are some problems with the company's production. I have to go back and deal with it quickly... It really doesn't make me worry... I wanted to have dinner with you, but who knew..."
"It's okay, isn't it just a meal? I'll eat it when I have time later. Sister Wang, please go back and deal with the company's affairs." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
Wang Aiqin nodded: "Xiaoyao, when will you go back?"
"I have to wait a few more days, I still have some things to do." Ma Xiaoyao said.
"Okay, then I'll go back first. After I finish handling the company's affairs, I'll treat you to dinner." As he spoke, Wang Aiqin stood up and left the coffee shop.
The bodyguard and driver hurriedly got up and followed.
Ma Xiaoyao drank all the coffee in the cup before getting up and leaving the coffee shop. After leaving the coffee shop, Ma Xiaoyao took out his mobile phone and called Meng Qiang. The call was quickly connected. Ma Xiaoyao said: "Come on.
Pick me up at the Lover’s Coffee Shop on Qingzhong Road.”
More than ten minutes later, Meng Qiang arrived in a car.
Ma Xiaoyao opened the car door, got in, and told Meng Qiang to take him home.
Without saying a word, Meng Qiang drove towards the community where Ma Xiaoyao lived. There were many vehicles on the road, so Meng Qiang did not drive very fast. It took about twenty minutes before the car arrived at the community where Ma Xiaoyao lived.
In front of the community gate.
"Okay, go back. I'll call you if anything happens." Ma Xiaoyao opened the door and got out of the car.
After watching Ma Xiaoyao walk into the gate of the community, Meng Qiang drove away in his car.
…
When Ma Xiaoyao walked into the house, his father Ma Dahai and his mother Zhang Chunfang were sitting on the sofa making dumplings. The old couple were very surprised when they saw Ma Xiaoyao push the door open and walk in.
"Xiaoyao? Why are you back?" Zhang Chunfang asked in surprise.
"Yes, Xiaoyao, it's fine, why are you back?" Ma Dahai also had a face full of surprise.
Ma Xiaoyao closed the door with his backhand, put on his slippers and walked into the living room: "I came to the city to do some errands, so I stopped by to see you."
"You came just in time. Your dad and I are making dumplings stuffed with chives." Zhang Chunfang was very happy when her son came back.
"I'm here to help." Ma Xiaoyao went to the bathroom to wash his hands, and then came out to help roll out the dumpling wrappers.
"Xiaoyao, are you going well at work recently?" Zhang Chunfang asked while making dumplings.
"It's very good. The township has just introduced a few projects recently, and they are developing quite well." Ma Xiaoyao smiled and said: "Mom, your son and I are now a famous celebrity in Gaohe Township. I have high prestige in the township and the entire township.
All the people say good things about me."
"Just blow it." Zhang Chunfang smiled.
Ma Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows: "What are you bragging about? Everything I say is true. If you don't believe it, you can follow me to Gaohe Township to see if the villagers in Gaohe Township support and love me..."
"Look at how anxious you are, I was joking with you just now. How can I not be clear about the son who I support by myself? You are flexible even though you are small, and you are also very disciplined in doing things. If you go to the countryside to work, I firmly believe that you will be able to make a name for yourself.
I’m from Fanmingtang.” Zhang Chunfang chuckled.
"Yes, the son I, Ma Dahai, will never be bad at." Ma Dahai also laughed.
Ma Xiaoyao felt very happy when he heard his parents praising him.
"By the way." Zhang Chunfang suddenly remembered something: "Xiaoyao, you came back just in time. A colleague from my company helped you find a partner a few days ago. I was just about to call you and ask you to come back for a blind date...
"
"Date again?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned immediately.
"Stop resisting. You are old now. It's time to find a wife..." Ma Xiaoyao's marriage has always been Zhang Chunfang's worry: "The girl my colleague is looking for for you is from this city. I have met her once.
She is very handsome and quite tall. She is estimated to be about 1.65 meters tall. She is very talkative. Now she is working as a salesperson in a large shopping mall. I think that girl is quite good. I will arrange for you to meet me tomorrow.
I guarantee you will like that girl after you meet her..."
"Yes, let's meet. If you think it's a good fit, we'll date you. If not, we'll throw you away." Ma Dahai agreed.
Ma Xiaoyao twisted his lips: "Mom, how many times have I told you, what I hate most is blind dates... Don't you want a daughter-in-law? Okay, I will get it back for you tomorrow!"
"Seriously?" Zhang Chunfang glared at Ma Xiaoyao: "You can't fool me!"
"I'm definitely not going to fool you, just keep it in perspective. I will definitely get you a beautiful daughter-in-law tomorrow! I will definitely satisfy you!" Ma Xiaoyao straightened her neck and said.
"Okay, then I'll wait to see my daughter-in-law, but I'm going to say something ugly first. If you can't get me a daughter-in-law tomorrow, then you have to go on a blind date for me!" Zhang Chunfang said.
"Okay!" Ma Xiaoyao nodded.
At this time, the dumplings were already wrapped. Zhang Chunfang picked up the dumplings and went to the kitchen.
Just as Ma Xiaoyao wanted to help in the kitchen, he was pulled back by Ma Dahai. Ma Xiaoyao turned his head and looked at Ma Dahai doubtfully: "Dad, what's wrong?"
