Chapter 422

Chapter 422: Chapter 422: Getting Too Big for Their Boots "Yahong," Director Liu interrupted her, "Your second uncle isn’t afraid of her. Don’t you understand by now? You keep referring to her as a mere individual peddler of buns, but she’s the person in charge of the Qin Family Village’s vegetable greenhouses. Even the few technicians our bureau sent to the Qin Family Village were opportunities your uncle thick-facedly begged from the county head and forcefully inserted there. Frankly speaking, they’ve already sought technicians from the Capital Agricultural Science and Technology Institute; they don’t need us at all. You can’t even see that. It seems you’ve really been spoiled by your older brother and the others."

Liu Yahong was unconvinced, "But we went there and did help the villagers, didn’t we? The village chief of Qin Family Village said that one technician was not enough, and they needed our support, right?"

Director Liu was so angry that he started pounding the table, "Can’t you tell that was just polite conversation?"

"Even if it was just polite conversation, we truly did help them. Why should they treat me this way? They are in the wrong for hitting someone, Uncle. I won’t go back to the office..." If she went back to the office, she would have no chance at all.

"What will you do if you don’t go back to the office? Continue to pester the technicians from the Agricultural Research Institute in the Qin Family Village? Do you know that his fiancée is still waiting in the capital for him to return and marry her?"

Seeing her deluded demeanor, Director Liu frowned.

"I never expected you to go to Qin Family Village with such intentions. Yahong, do you understand what the vegetable greenhouses in Qin Family Village mean? They are the first national case of large-scale promotion of off-season vegetables. If successful, not only will Qin Family Village be celebrated, but also the participating technicians will have their names go down in history. It’s a tremendous honor, and I secured such a great opportunity for you, yet all you think about is love..."

Director Liu waved his hand tiredly. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com "Just go. Don’t go to Qin Family Village tomorrow, return directly to the bureau to work. I will send someone else there, and also, don’t think about creating opportunities to go against Lin Chuxia anymore; she’s not someone you can contend with. Your second uncle isn’t afraid of her; he doesn’t want to offend her."

With that, Director Liu only hoped his niece would take his words to heart.

Liu Yahong was shocked by Director Liu’s words, but became dismissive again upon hearing the latter part.

What ’names going down in history,’ that’s an overstatement.

Second Uncle always deals in mystical nonsense, in the end, it’s just because he’s afraid of offending Lin Chuxia and doesn’t want to help her.

...

Director Liu was still considering how to handle this matter. Although the village chief was quite easy to talk to and had agreed to give Liu Yahong another chance, the conflict with Lin Chuxia was there, and it wasn’t appropriate for him to send Liu Yahong back to Qin Family Village.

Apart from that, the conflict between Liu Yahong and Lin Chuxia appeared to have put Liu Yahong at a disadvantage on the surface, but he couldn’t take her word for it. He might even need to give Lin Chuxia some face and inquire about it.

Liu Yahong incessantly referred to Lin Chuxia as just a bun seller, but Director Liu wasn’t as shallow or naive as his niece.

Not to mention what the vegetable greenhouses could bring to Qin Family Village and Ancheng County at the moment, Lin Chuxia’s name was tied to the Xiyang Food Factory, Qin’s Buns Shop, and other Qin Family Village industries. Which one wouldn’t be noted in the County Committee’s annual report?

She was a talent that even Bai County wanted to woo before the New Year. How foolish would he be to offend her?

Moreover, he had already dispatched technicians to Qin Family Village. Once the vegetable greenhouses achieved results, he, the chief of the Agricultural Bureau, would be the first to benefit.

Director Liu would say he had no regrets now, but it was impossible; he shouldn’t have sent his niece to Qin Family Village out of consideration for his older brother’s face.

Director Liu still hadn’t figured out how to properly deal with the situation when Liu Yahong’s mother, his sister-in-law, came to his door.

Liu Yahong’s mother, Sun Miaofang, is in her forties and also works at the Agricultural Bureau.

Yahong told her about this incident the moment she returned yesterday. Sun Miaofang didn’t rush to Director Liu right away because she felt her daughter lacked sense.

Even if her visit to Qin Family Village was for Technician He, it wouldn’t interfere with other matters.

Focus on the technology work at Qin Family Village, time will pass, and affection may grow. Who cares if there is a fiancée or not?

In the end, what does it have to do with Lin Chuxia?

But she just had to butt heads with Lin Chuxia.

Still, her daughter was hit by Lin Chuxia. Even if her daughter doesn’t go to Qin Family Village anymore, she can’t just come back so dejectedly. How would she face anyone in the Bureau after that?

Director Liu pinched his brow, "How is this coming back dejectedly? The village chief of Qin Family Village came to me yesterday with a request. It’s a good opportunity to send a male comrade over, isn’t it?"

Sun Miaofang scoffed coldly, "How is that good? Yahong’s beating was in vain? She’s your own niece, and I have never laid a finger on her since she was born. Why should she be hit by another woman? Did she commit some heinous crime? Even if she did something terrible, we have the police station and public security. How are you going to handle this? I can’t just let it go. If it comes to it, I’ll call the police."

"What does Sister-in-law think should be done? Surely you don’t expect Yahong to hit back? I make it clear here: even as the head of the Agricultural Bureau, I can’t condone my staff assaulting others."

Director Liu’s voice also turned cold.

His sister-in-law had always been strong-willed, with even his brother listening to her.

Now that he was the head of the Bureau, everyone flattering her had made her lose all sense of proportion.

Seeing that her brother-in-law had cooled down, Sun Miaofang moderated her tone as well.

"I’m not insisting that Yahong should retaliate. We are not that kind of unreasonable, barbaric people who call for fighting and killing every day. It’s just that Yahong can’t come back like this without explanation. Even if she doesn’t need to go to Qin Family Village at some point, it shouldn’t be this time.

I’ve already spoken to Yahong, she won’t target Lin Chuxia anymore and will concentrate on her work."

"I’ve already said it, Qin Family Village had come with a request to send a male comrade over," Director Liu persisted with his stance, this time he had made up his mind not to cater to the pride of his brother and sister-in-law.

Sun Miaofang raised her voice, "They want to change, and we just change? Since when do we need the village’s consent when the county leadership dispatches a technician? Has Qin Family Village become too arrogant? Younger brother, you have to stick to your principles on this one. It’s not just about saving face for Yahong, but also about the reputation of our Agricultural Bureau."

Director Liu was about to say something more when suddenly there was a commotion outside.

Secretary Xiao Wang knocked and came in, "Director Liu, a lot of folks from outside have come saying they’re from Qin Family Village and want to speak with Director Liu about some issues. What do you think..."

"Seems like it."

"I won’t see them. If they have issues, let their village chief come," Sun Miaofang turned to look at Director Liu again, "See what I said? We shouldn’t be too polite to these troublemakers, lest they get above themselves."
