Chapter 147 Family Committee



Guan Wenru didn't give Liu Guiying a chance to struggle and directly pulled her to a corner.

Liu Guiying stumbled slightly as she was pulled. "Why are you pulling me?"

After distancing themselves from the others, Guan Wenru let go of her.

She lowered her voice, "Sister-in-law Guiying, Zhao Mei is still my college classmate, can you please give me some face and just let this go?"

"Ha...who do you think you are? Why should I give you face?"

Guan Wenru smiled, "Have you heard about the feed processing plant that's going to be built nearby, sister-in-law?"

Liu Guiying was stunned for a moment, and then finally realized what was happening.

Her attitude softened. "So...so what?"

"So, if Sister Guiying wants to work in the factory, she should leave herself some room for maneuver. If you're determined to go to extremes and force a pregnant woman to live on the streets..."

Then...the recruitment situation will be hard to predict. Sister-in-law, you're a sensible person; you certainly don't want to miss the opportunity to work in a factory, right? This factory will most likely be under my control.”

Liu Guiying stared intently at Guan Wenru, her eyes filled with anger. "Guan Wenru, don't try to intimidate me with your words!"

"How could I dare to put pressure on my sister-in-law? I'm just reminding her to leave herself an out. We all run into each other in this compound, don't you think?"

Liu Guiying wasn't afraid of Guan Wenru; rather, she genuinely wanted to work in the factory.

After thinking for a moment, she snorted, "Fine, consider her lucky! But this isn't over! The military will deal with it sooner or later!"

After saying that, she left No. 1 Courtyard without looking back.

Jiang Zhaodi, who was still standing at Zhao Mei's door, was dumbfounded.

So... Sister-in-law Guiying is leaving already?

It's not that...

When Jiang Zhaodi met Guan Wenru's gaze, she instinctively shrank back.

She lowered her head and hurriedly left, her back view showing a hint of dishevelment.

Zeng Chunlan breathed a sigh of relief and gave Guan Wenru a thumbs up, "Little Guan, it's still you."

Guan Wenru laughed, "Sisters-in-law, hurry home and cook for the children."

Everyone snapped out of their daze, "Right, right, my kid must be hungry."

After her sisters-in-law left, Guan Wenru asked her grandmother to go inside first to have dinner with the two children. She then knocked on Zhao Mei's door and said, "It's me."

A moment later, Zhao Mei opened the door.

She handed the paper to Guan Wenru, saying, "These are two of the medications. I'll give you the other two once you help me get the official hospital admission documents."

Guan Wenru remained expressionless. She took the paper and went home, not wanting to give Zhao Mei even a second glance.

She glanced at the two medications.

It's quite a coincidence; she had it in her social media profile.

I don't know what the other two medicines are, but I hope they are things she has in her online space.

Moreover, she didn't trust Zhao Mei. After receiving the four kinds of medicine, she had to write down the ingredients and give them to the doctor for research.

......

Although Liu Guiying stopped causing trouble later, what she did still reached the ears of her division commander, Zhang Zhongwu.

When Zhang Zhongwu got home that night, he slammed a document on the table in frustration. “Outrageous! Absolutely outrageous! It’s only been a few days since things calmed down, and now they’re making a scene over these trivial matters again! This compound has become a stage for a farce!”

Zeng Chunlan sighed, "Don't get too worked up. It's just a bunch of old women's squabbles and arguments, it's inevitable."

"Unavoidable? I think it's because they're too idle! The impact is too bad! We must take action! I've decided to establish a family committee specifically to handle these matters!"

Zeng Chunlan was taken aback. "We still want to establish it? But who will be in charge? This is a difficult job; it will offend people."

Zhang Zhongwu turned his gaze to his wife, "I think you are the most suitable. You are the wife of a division commander and have prestige."

"No, no!" Zeng Chunlan was terrified. "Please spare me! I'm just a rural woman who can barely read or write a proper name. How can I be a director? I can manage my own kitchen, but managing this whole courtyard? I can't do it! Find someone else."

"You'll have to do it."

“I can’t!” Zeng Chunlan said with a look of resistance.

There are too many problems in this residential compound now, and she's too soft-hearted to manage them properly.

Just as Zhang Zhongwu was thinking of offering some advice, there was a knock on the door.

Zeng Chunlan quickly went to open the door, "Xiao Guan, you're here."

Guan Wenru smiled and said, "Yes, I've come to deliver cow and sheep milk."

She went to help out at the animal husbandry station this afternoon and brought back some cow and sheep milk, so Wang Dagui doesn't have to make the trip again.

Just as she handed the thermos to Zeng Chunlan, she heard Zhang Zhongwu from inside the room say, "Xiao Guan, you've come at the right time. I was just talking about setting up a family committee. I wanted your sister-in-law to be the director, but she absolutely refused. You can talk to her about it!"

It was eventually established.

Guan Wenru remembered that Liu Guiying was the director in her previous life. She raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly, "Sister-in-law, why don't you do it? This is doing a good thing for all the military families in our compound."

Zeng Chunlan shook her head. "Xiao Guan, stop joining in the commotion. Don't you know what my level is? I tremble when I speak at meetings, and I'm even more clueless when writing reports. This director position should be filled by someone with some knowledge and eloquence."

"Sister Chunlan, you're wrong. What the family committee wants is fairness! They want people who can treat everyone equally!"

Look at the chaos in the courtyard now, why? Isn't it because some people are taking sides, only caring about their own little cliques, or speaking too harshly, getting angry at the slightest provocation?

Zeng Chunlan frowned, "That's true... but..."

"No buts! Sister-in-law, think about it, in the whole compound, who doesn't say you're the most easy-going and reasonable person? When one family is arguing or another is making trouble, when have you ever sincerely tried to mediate?"

You are impartial and fair, and everyone is convinced of your impartiality. That's enough!

As for recognizing and writing characters, those are minor matters. We can learn to read gradually. If we need to write something, we can just ask someone for help. The leader and I agree; we think you're the most suitable candidate.”

Zeng Chunlan was somewhat swayed by her words, "But I'm afraid I won't do a good job and will let everyone down."

"Sister-in-law, you can do it! You have an advantage that others can't match! You're the wife of a teacher! These words may be blunt, but they work!"

Some people are troublemakers; they ignore what others say, but would they dare disobey you?

The division commander is standing behind! You can offend people, but you can also make them obey you obediently. This position... is rightfully yours!

Zhang Zhongwu listened from the side and nodded approvingly.

Zeng Chunlan glanced at her husband, then at Guan Wenru's sincere face, and sighed, "Then...then I'll give it a try? Just so you know, if I don't do a good job, don't blame me!"

Guan Wenru chuckled, "Sister-in-law, if you agree, our family committee will have a pillar of support! I'll be the first to support you!"

Zhang Zhongwu finally smiled. "I've realized it. In this compound, Xiao Guan, you're the real leader. Look at these women, they don't listen to me, they listen to you!"

"Sir, please don't flatter me."

Guan Wenru spoke a few more words to them and then hurried home.

In this life, Zeng Chunlan will most likely be the director.

That would be best!

If someone like Liu Guiying or Gu Siyu were to become the director... it would definitely cause her trouble.
