Reborn in the ’80s as a Group Favorite Bigshot – Chapter 127

Chapter 127: Praising You, and You Take It Seriously

Big Brother Song and Fourth Brother Song saw that their usually meek Second Sister-in-law, under the guidance of their little sister, had actually become so formidable, and couldn’t help but gulp.

They actually couldn’t feel sympathy for Second Brother Song.

Especially Big Brother Song, who now regarded his son and daughter as his pillars of life, “Second Brother, you really did wrong this time. Daughters are for doting on, not for scolding. You’re really out of line.”

Fourth Brother Song added fuel to the fire, “That’s right, Second Brother needs a good talking to.”

“……” Second Brother Song was about to lose it. Had he become the enemy of the whole family?

“A real man doesn’t fight with women. I won’t stoop to your level, woman.” With his little sister and mother present, Second Brother Song didn’t dare to hit his wife back, so he could only quickly open the door and run out.

Second Sister-in-law Song didn’t chase after him. It was just after dinner time when every household was out for a stroll, and it wouldn’t look good if they were seen.

However, she had bravely taken the first step and felt particularly excited. So Second Brother Song wasn’t so scary after all.

Song Chu raised her hand and shouted, “Second Sister-in-law, you’re awesome! Well done!”

A teachable child indeed. Her recent brainwashing and encouragement had not been in vain.

“Mom is awesome!” Song Sanniu threw herself into her mother’s arms.

Ever since her aunt had changed for the better, her dad hadn’t managed to lay a finger on her. And now her mom had finally become strong too.

Second Sister-in-law Song’s eyes welled up, “I, I won’t be afraid of him anymore.”

Then she carefully looked at Tang Feng, her mother-in-law, “I, I won’t hit him anymore either.”

She had been a little impulsive just now, actually hitting her husband in front of her mother-in-law.

Tang Feng waved her hand dismissively, “It’s fine, hit him if you want to. That idiot needs a good beating.”

She had always disliked her lazy and cowardly son. He was in the wrong, so she definitely wouldn’t protect him. Instead, she found her newly-spirited daughter-in-law more pleasing to the eye than before.

“That’s how a woman should be, you can’t let a man walk all over you,” she added.

Song Youfu’s face darkened, and he coughed a few times.

What was she teaching?

Hearing his cough, Tang Feng turned and glared at him, “What are you coughing for? Did I say something wrong?”

Song Youfu immediately backed down, “My throat is a little uncomfortable.”

“I’m going out for a walk.” He immediately got up, put his hands behind his back, and slipped out.

Tang Feng then gave Second Sister-in-law Song a triumphant look, see, that’s how you handle a man.

This earned her Second Sister-in-law Song’s admiring gaze, making her look even more favorably upon her.

The family sat and talked for a while, then Tang Feng and the others went out for a stroll.

Song Chu planned to look for design books in the space, draw down some designs that were appropriate for this era, and let her mother use them as a reference.

Her mother had graduated from elementary school, so reading and understanding diagrams wouldn’t be a problem. So she got up and went to the office.

When she reached the office door and saw that it was open, she walked straight in and saw Gu Yue drawing something.

Hearing someone enter, Gu Yue looked up, “Why are you here?”

“I came to find some paper and a pen to draw something. Are you drawing the design for the vacuum compressor?” Song Chu walked over to take a look.

Gu Yue nodded, “I had an inspiration just now and wanted to draw it all out in one go, then mail it to the Provincial Machinery Factory and see if they can make it.”

“And also ask if the oil press is ready.”

Song Chu found that Gu Yue’s structural drawings were very good, “Gu, the Academic God, your speed is really amazing.”

“It just so happens that I don’t really want to sell live ducks and geese. If the vacuum packaging compressor is made, we can directly process them into various flavored cooked foods and sell them.”

Her purpose in raising ducks and geese wasn’t for meat, but for duck down and goose down.

Gu Yue smiled at her, “I know you want to sell cooked food, that’s why I sped up the progress.”

He was becoming increasingly indulgent and accommodating towards Song Chu.

Song Chu beamed and placed her hands on his shoulders, kneading them, “Gu, the Academic God, you’ve worked hard. You’re the best!”

Seeing her wagging her tail like a little cat, trying to please him, Gu Yue was in a very good mood. His recent overtime work hadn’t been in vain.

“What did you come here to draw?” He asked, enjoying Song Chu’s shoulder massage.

Song Chu explained her plan to cultivate her mother into a fashion designer, “I think my mom has a lot of potential in this area. With some training, she could be very useful in the future.”

Gu Yue smiled and supported her, “There are many older designers abroad. If Aunt has a talent for it, it’s good for you to cultivate her.”

“But how do you plan to talk to the clothing factory? Right now, the competition for worker positions is very fierce. Many workers’ families are still waiting, so it won’t be easy to get in.”

“Do you need my help?” he asked after a pause.

Song Chu replied, “I don’t need your help. I’ve already figured out how to get my mom in there.”

“I’ll use the duck down and goose down to negotiate. If it’s really too much trouble, I can pay her salary myself and just ask them not to tell my mom,” she said truthfully.

She was quite well-off recently, mainly because she often went up the mountain to gather medicinal herbs to practice processing.

She sold all the processed herbs that she didn’t need to Boss Hu for the time being.

Good medicinal herbs were still relatively scarce in the market, so they fetched a good price.

Plus, she had been lucky half a month ago and found a high-year wild Ganoderma, which she also sold.

After more than two months of accumulation, she had a considerable amount of savings.

Gu Yue chuckled, “It’s worth a try. If the down jacket you mentioned is really made and the insulation effect is particularly good, the clothing factory should agree.”

“That’s for sure. I have a lot of confidence in down jackets,” Song Chu said.

Down jackets appeared in the eighties, so she would just let them come out earlier. She had always been sensitive to the cold.

“By the way, is it too much trouble for you to send everything you research to the Provincial Machinery Factory?” Song Chu asked.

Gu Yue said helplessly, “There’s no other way. The technology and equipment at the County Machinery Factory are not up to par.”

Otherwise, he wouldn’t want to do things from so far away.

Song Chu thought for a moment and said, “Then let the County Machinery Factory buy a batch of new equipment, and you can provide technical guidance. Once they produce the vacuum packaging compressor, they can definitely earn back double the investment.”

“They can also take the export route and let foreigners see that our products are more advanced than theirs. Earn some more foreign exchange and promote the reputation of Nan Province and Nan County,” she added.

Gu Yue turned to look at her, raising an eyebrow, “Do you think the factory director will agree? I don’t think they have the guts.”

“Even if they did have the guts, I’m afraid they don’t have enough funds. New equipment isn’t easy to buy,” he added.

Song Chu smiled and continued to massage his shoulders, “For this, we need to go to Sheng Qingyang. We’ll give him some support. I believe with his vision, he’ll definitely agree.”

With Sheng Qingyang’s support, and then some persuasion and encouragement to the machinery factory director, this matter could definitely be accomplished.

“You should have no problem getting some new machinery equipment, right? Then this matter is settled.”

She said with a grin, “It will also save you a lot of trouble. You won’t have to run to the province anymore.”

Gu Yue was quite moved by her words, “Song Xiaochu, I think it’s a pity you’re not a lawyer with that silver tongue of yours.”

Song Chu said proudly, “That’s right, but I prefer creative things, so I won’t compete with other lawyers for their jobs.”

Gu Yue was both amused and exasperated, “Praising you, and you take it seriously.”

This woman had a knack for being conceited, but somehow it made her seem straightforward and cute.
