Chapter 113: Little Sister Is Indeed More Skillful
Song Chu hadn’t expected Fang Yue Lan to try to incite people to make trouble and report her for embezzling public funds.
Although it was a bit vicious, it would have been effective if it had been substantiated.
After all, the breeding farm was now collectively owned and state-operated. If embezzlement of public funds was reported, someone would definitely come to investigate.
Fang Yue Lan was actually a bit clever, but unfortunately, her mind was not righteous and was not used for proper purposes.
Song Chu smiled and said to the two with a grateful expression, “Thank you both, Sisters-in-Law, for coming to talk to me so intimately today.”
“After all, I started the oil pressing workshop and the breeding farm to lead our village to prosperity and make everyone’s lives better in the future. I’m so happy that you can understand.”
She was actually a bit surprised by the actions of Fang’s two Sisters-in-Law, but it also made her feel good, indicating that her efforts were not in vain.
Fang’s Second Sister-in-Law took her hand and said, “We understand. No one can compare to your contribution to the village now. If you hadn’t gone back and forth to apply, the breeding farm wouldn’t have been established, and you are the most qualified to be the director.”
“My husband often comes home after work and praises how good the breeding farm is. We also hope it can continue to operate. My Younger Sister-in-Law is just too insensible. We were afraid she would do something wrong.”
Fang Yue Lan really couldn’t compare to Song Chu. Apart from other merits, just her broad-mindedness and vision were far superior.
Song Chu smiled and nodded, “That’s good. With the support of Fang’s Second Eldest Brother and your families, I can do my job better and with more motivation.”
“Don’t worry, the breeding farm will only get better, and the wages and benefits will also increase.”
“I haven’t embezzled any public funds. Our breeding farm’s accounts are clear. I have a clear conscience, so let her come.”
“I’m also very grateful for your heartfelt words today. I’ll remember both of your kindness, Sisters-in-Law.”
Then she looked at Fang’s Eldest Sister-in-Law with a smile and asked, “Does Eldest Brother Fang know carpentry?”
Fang’s Eldest Sister-in-Law was taken aback, then smiled and replied, “He learned a bit from others before, but he’s far inferior to Youfu Uncle.”
“But he can do some simple carpentry. Chu Chu, if you need something done, just say the word. I’ll tell him to do it when I get back.” This was a good thing.
Song Chu smiled meaningfully and said, “I don’t have anything I need to be done, but the breeding farm will be recruiting people with skills and techniques later.”
“Tell Eldest Brother Fang to practice more recently so he can get selected in one go.” She was doing the Fang family a favor.
And she did plan to recruit some skilled villagers to the farm soon to expand its operations.
The Fang family was very sensible and knew their place, so she thought they were usable.
This could also strengthen her relationship with the eldest and second branches of the Fang family and, incidentally, help her keep an eye on Fang Yue Lan.
“Oh, that’s great news. I’ll tell him to pick it up when I get back.”
Fang’s Eldest Sister-in-Law hadn’t expected that coming here, originally to show their stance, would lead to such a good opportunity.
She immediately thanked her, “Chu Chu, thank you so much.”
“It will still depend on Eldest Brother Fang himself,” Song Chu said.
After thinking for a moment, she said to the two, “Let’s pretend you didn’t come today and didn’t say anything. Don’t let Fang Yue Lan know when you go back.”
“No problem, we’ll keep an eye on her for you, but you should also be careful of her,” Fang’s two Sisters-in-Law nodded.
They weren’t disregarding their relative, but Fang Yue Lan had serious issues. She always wanted to harm others, which was wrong.
And stopping such things in time was actually for Fang Yue Lan’s own good.
They felt that if their narrow-minded and malicious Younger Sister-in-Law went up against Song Chu, she would only be asking for trouble.
The two chatted for a while longer, and seeing that it was getting late, they left.

The Song family members also returned one after another.
Song Chu pulled her Second Older Brother and Fourth Older Brother into the room and told them about Fang Yue Lan.
Both were furious. Their sister was rightfully the director, who did Fang Yue Lan think she was to try to harm her like that?
“I’ll take some people to teach her a lesson tomorrow,” Song Lao Si had never hit a woman, but he wanted to teach Fang Yue Lan a lesson. That woman had tried to harm his sister more than once.
Song Lao Er rolled his eyes at him, “Are you stupid? If you take people to teach her a lesson, everyone will know you bullied a Female Comrade. If she accuses you of hooliganism or something, you’ll be making trouble for yourself and for Little Sister.”
“I say we find some hoodlums from another village to deal with her. Then no one will suspect us,” he suggested.
Song Lao Si came to his senses and hugged Song Lao Er, “You’re right. Second Older Brother, you’re full of bad ideas.”
Song Lao Er pushed him away, “What are you saying?”
Then, both of them were slapped by Song Chu, which stung.
“Why did you hit us again?” Song Lao Er immediately rubbed his hand and jumped up.
Song Lao Si also felt wronged, “We were trying to stand up for you, and you hit us.”
Song Chu glared at them, “I called you here, not to hear these lousy ideas.”
“Second Older Brother is right. Your previous idea was completely impulsive and would hand them ammunition. Too stupid,” she said to Song Lao Si.
Then she looked at the smug Song Lao Er and said, “You are indeed full of bad ideas. What’s the point of finding hoodlums from another village to bully a Female Comrade? How is that any different from Fang Yue Lan?”
Song Lao Da was fine now, so she called the two to test them. Sure enough, both still needed reforming and guidance.
Song Lao Er withdrew his smugness and asked sheepishly, “Then what do you suggest?”
“Based on my understanding of Fang Yue Lan’s personality, if one scheme fails, she’ll definitely think of other ways to incite trouble among the people at the breeding farm.”
“I’m giving you a task. Keep an eye on Fang Yue Lan and the people at the farm recently to see if anyone is colluding with her.”
“This way, we can also see who the ingrates are at the breeding farm and fire them directly. I only need employees who are united.”
“If no one falls for it, she might try to cause trouble in other ways. Watch closely and don’t give her any opportunities. It’s best to catch her red-handed. Then someone will naturally deal with her,” she added.
With someone like Fang Yue Lan, you needed to strike quickly, accurately, and decisively so she couldn’t bounce back. So she wasn’t in a hurry.
After hearing Song Chu’s words, the two realized that Little Sister was indeed more skillful. Her brain was just different, too smart.
Song Lao Si chuckled, “Little Sister, that’s a good idea. I’ll have Tang Qing and the others keep an eye out. As soon as she does something bad, we’ll catch her.”
Song Lao Er also said, “I’ll also ask some people in the village to help keep an eye out.”
They each had friends of the same age in the village.
They could bully their own sister, but no one else could.
Well, actually, they didn’t dare to bully her, nor did they have the ability. That was the most frustrating part…
