"Talk about wealth and my career in officialdom..." Ma Dajun said cautiously, the two things people adrift in the bureaucratic sea care about the most!
"I wonder if Bureau Chief Ma wants to hear the truth or some pleasantries?" A'niu said, feigning mystery.
"Of course the truth, just lay it on me, Brother Liu," Ma Dajun, in his urgency, mistakenly thought A'niu's last name was Liu.
A'niu smiled slightly, "The truth is, before you married this young wife, your career in officialdom was smooth sailing, but now unless..."
Upon hearing this, Ma Dajun was greatly alarmed. Indeed, it was after marrying this young wife that he was dispatched to Peach Blossom Town, whereas he was supposed to have been promoted to the city last year.
"Unless what?" He asked eagerly.
"Unless you break the black magic that's been cast on you, neutralize the elemental conflict between you and your wife," A'niu said as he picked up a piece of beef and chewed it with loud smacks.
