In 1992, a small village owner became the richest man in the village by owning a car.

Chapter 277 The Eldest Disciple's Sudden Visit

"Brother, have you heard of this?" Seeing that everyone was willing to talk to him, Bi Yunjie could only turn his attention back to Yu Dawei.

"Yes, I've heard of it." Yu Dawei frowned, his expression somewhat complicated.

“That’s right. I’m not afraid to tell you, Fanfan Repair Shop was founded by a sworn brother of mine.” As soon as Bi Yunjie said this, everyone’s attention turned to him again, and he put more effort into his words. “Back then, the owner of Fanfan Repair Shop was extremely poor and destitute. He had no parents when he was young.”

“When he grew up, he couldn’t even find a wife! He was almost starving to death!” Bi Yunjie tapped the table with four fingers, then changed the subject, “In the end, thanks to me, I provided him with food and drink and invested in building a factory for him. Although Fanfan Repair Shop isn’t big in Luhe Town, it’s alright, and he has enough to live on.”

Of the five tables in the room, the other four were occupied by lively people, but at this table, Bi Yunjie was listening intently to his words, and he was drenched in sweat.

This person really has no sense of propriety at all. Didn't he see the atmosphere getting increasingly awkward? Didn't he see some well-meaning people constantly glancing at Yu Dawei out of the corner of their eyes?

Are you stupid?! Even Sun Shunli, who had been silent all along, had figured out what was going on, but this guy was still talking big.

"Why aren't you saying anything? You don't believe me, do you?" Bi Yunjie sensed that something was wrong, but feeling guilty, he thought there was a flaw in what he said, so he raised his voice and said, "Okay! Next time, next time you go to the market, go directly to Fanfan Repair Shop, find a boss surnamed Zhang, and when you see a big, burly man, that's the one."

"Great job!" Yu Dawei exclaimed. There were four surnames in the factory: Ji, Yao, Yu, and Jiang.

He figured the other party must have guessed one thing correctly, otherwise what if someone actually went to the factory looking for someone?

As a result, he figured out probability theory and came up with a Zhang that didn't even exist.

"Well, my brother used to be really skinny, but now he's gotten so fat he's almost unrecognizable. He usually comes to the city to see me, so it's normal that you sometimes don't run into him." Bi Yunjie didn't completely rule it out, because he was afraid that some of the honest people present might drive their tricycles to town to find that elusive Boss Zhang.

"Hey, let's drink!" Liu Liguo couldn't stand it anymore at this point. He picked up the pink plastic cup, ready to drink away the embarrassment he had just felt.

"Let's drink! I heard that our village will be getting electricity in the next couple of years," someone said.

"It might not be reliable. Some say the voltage is unstable and it will have to be postponed," someone else said.

"Let's just wait. It'll get electricity sooner or later anyway. Our province is probably the slowest in the whole of Northeast China."

After a drink, everyone racked their brains to change the subject, not to help that simpleton Bi Yunjie.

She simply didn't want to embarrass Xiao Fan's son-in-law, as this was the real person, and she would inevitably have to ask him for help in the future.

Bi Yunjie also sensed that he was not well-liked by these people; apart from Yu Dawei beside him, no one had responded to his words.

"Brother, trust me. After the New Year, I'll take you to Fanfan's repair shop and talk to Xiao Zhang. I'll ask you to be his apprentice or something." Bi Yunjie patted Yu Dawei's broad shoulder, indicating that he was in charge of the matter.

Upon hearing this, everyone who had been talking at once suddenly fell silent, as if they had choked on a steamed bun, and even turned their heads incredulously to stare at Bi Yunjie.

This guy is a complete idiot!

You want the owner of Fanfan Repair Shop to be an apprentice in your own shop?! What were you thinking?!

Are you blind? Can't you see the difference in the height of the eyebrows and eyes?

"Me? Become an apprentice?" Yu Dawei was also confused, pointing his index finger at himself.

What's wrong with this kid? Hasn't he noticed the hints everyone's giving him? Some people are practically shoving their lips at him.

Bi Yunjie thought the kid was not satisfied with his apprenticeship, so he immediately lectured him in the tone of an elder: "Although you can repair farm vehicles, Fanfan Repair Shop specializes in repairing construction machinery and automobiles. They are not the same species at all. So, Dawei, when you go there, you must learn seriously as an apprentice."

"Don't worry, since I introduced you, Xiao Zhang will definitely give me some face. The deputy factory director position is just a formality." Bi Yunjie glanced at everyone and raised his chin. "Anyone else who wants to develop in the town, just tell me. I can't speak for the city, but there's nothing in the town that I, Bi Yunjie, can't handle."

"Drip!"

"Drip!"

Just then, the sound of a car horn came from outside the gate of Old Han's house.

The red car was parked smoothly at the side of the intersection, diagonally close to the ditch.

A few honks of the horn made everyone stop eating, and some people sitting at the kang table started to look out the window, wondering which family's distinguished guest had come to visit again.

Liu Liguo finally breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, the car horn interrupted Bi Yunjie, otherwise he would have been embarrassed to leave his seat.

But when he got up and looked out the window, he froze instantly, his brows furrowing into a deep frown.

He recognized the car; it looked very familiar! Not long after, a boy in his teens got out of the car. He stood in the snow and looked at Old Han's gate several times before quickly walking inside.

Although the big yellow dog in the yard was tied up in its kennel, it still barked loudly at strangers.

Just as Grandma Han was about to get out of bed to greet the guests, the child arrived at the door. He opened the door, panting, and went into the inner room, quickly searching for a familiar figure.

"Who are you looking for, kid?" Grandma Han had never met Xiao Agui before, so she naturally didn't recognize him. She didn't even know that the little red car outside the yard belonged to Yu Dawei and his wife.

“Master!” Little Agui finally found the person he was looking for and quickly walked to Yu Dawei’s table. “Grandpa asked me to come find you. He said someone from the repair shop came looking for us. They said a flatbed truck overturned. The people are okay, but the truck is broken. They need to go and help.”

In the quiet room, everyone could hear the boy's voice.

Some people started to wonder why they needed Xiaofan's husband to come and help with the car breakdown.

Some people even gleaned key information from seemingly minor details: a repair shop? Could it be Yu Dawei's repair shop?

Of all the people present, Bi Yunjie was the most surprised, and a sudden inspiration struck him: the repair shop issue.

Before he could even ask, an older person at the next table chimed in with good news: "What kind of repair shop doesn't let people rest during the New Year? What kind of job are you working, son-in-law Xiao Fan?"

The person speaking was slurring his words and had a flushed face; he was clearly drunk.

"It's my own repair shop." But since he'd already said that, and everyone was watching, Yu Dawei had no choice but to pull Xiao Agui to his side. "Agui, you have to call this Grandma, and this is Grandpa, your teacher's wife's parents. Next time, remember to greet people when you come in. Don't just rush in like that, or you might get the wrong person."

“This child is an apprentice I brought back from Hebei Province. His parents died early, and Xiao Fan and I have been taking care of him.”

Compared to the strange looks from others, Yu Dawei cared more about his apprentice's words and actions. This child had no one to teach him before, but now that he was following him, he should at least know some rules.

While Yu Dawei didn't care, the others present were very concerned, especially Bi Yunjie, whose heart was practically in his throat.

He owns his own repair shop?! Could it be Fanfan's Repair Shop? Fanfan? Han Jingfan?! What a coincidence!

The room wasn't very big to begin with, and most people had heard Bi Yunjie's boasting, but since they weren't at the same table, they weren't really interested in discussing it.

Now everyone is staring at Bi Yunjie with wide eyes.

Mi Yao, sitting on the kang table, glanced at her brother-in-law Yu Dawei with a complicated expression, then turned to look at her own husband with an icy expression.

You can boast all you want, but of all times you've blown your own horn onto the person in question! How is she supposed to face Xiao Fan and his wife now?

"Happy New Year, Grandma! Happy New Year, Grandpa!" At this moment, Xiao Agui realized that he had done something wrong again, so he quickly followed his master's instructions and wished his grandparents a Happy New Year.

"Good, good, good! Happy New Year!" Sitting on the kang (heated brick bed), Grandma Han took out five yuan from her pocket and handed it over, saying, "Here's a red envelope from my grandson."

"It is an elder's gift, and one should not refuse it. Ah Gui, please accept it." Han Jingfan saw little Ah Gui standing hesitantly on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) and couldn't help but speak up to persuade him.

"Okay! Thank you, Grandma." Little Agui accepted the red envelope and then turned to look at his master.

"Elders, saving a car is urgent, so I'll head back now." Yu Dawei turned to look at Bi Yunjie, and seeing the look in his eyes, he guessed that he was the real owner of Fanfan Repair Shop. He smiled and reached out to pat Bi Yunjie's shoulder, just like Bi Yunjie had done. "Brother, you told a good story."

"Wait, I'm full too, let's go back together." Han Jingfan was also about to get off the kang (heated brick bed). Although she knew that Sister Yaoyao was in an awkward situation, she still couldn't help but say goodbye to her. "Sister Yaoyao, I'll be going now."

"Okay, drive carefully on the road." Mi Yao forced a smile.

She noticed a gold bracelet on Han Jingfan's wrist while they were eating. She had always heard people say that Fanfan's life wasn't good after she got married.

Looking back now, it was just a rumor. Even the sweater the other person was wearing looked more high-end than mine.

Grandma Han originally wanted to invite Xiao Agui and Xiao Fan to stay for dinner, but Yu Dawei declined, citing other commitments.

They've already sent someone to my house, which means they're really in trouble, so I can't delay any longer.

Before leaving, Yu Dawei and his wife took the old lady to the storeroom and gave her six thousand yuan.

Grandma Han was flattered and quickly pushed the money back, completely baffled by the couple's intentions.
