"Sister, I'll do whatever you say!" Su Dazhi quickly declared.
If my sister can even handle Liu Mei, why wouldn't he trust her? My sister truly cares about him.
When they arrived at the factory, after Su Dazhi went to the warehouse, Su Yu pulled Su Zhi aside and said, "Keep an eye on your brother and sister-in-law. If anything seems amiss, remember to tell me."
Su Zhi said unhappily, "Why? I want to play by myself. Who has time to keep an eye on them?"
"You fool, I'm doing this for your own good. If I keep an eye on your brother and sister-in-law, they won't have a chance to get back together and fight over dividing the family property. You think I'm only taking care of Liu Mei for your brother? There's you too. If I keep her in check, you'll have a good sister-in-law to take care of you in the future."
"Why not just have my older brother divorce her?"
Su Zhi muttered to himself.
Su Yu tapped his head. "You're really stupid. You think getting married doesn't cost money? One person can get married, why are you expecting to get two? You'd be better off using that money to get married yourself. When you get married, I'll buy you an extra quilt."
Su Zhi suddenly realized why his sister had kept his sister-in-law there; that explained it all. Of course, his brother's wedding last time had emptied the house.
If it happened again, what would happen?
"Sister, I'll definitely keep a close eye on things. I won't give Big Brother a chance to betray us!"
After instructing Su Zhi, Su Yu hurried to the workshop to start work. Before work began, she took her admission notice to Director Xu's office and asked him to change her shift. From now on, she would no longer be able to work the evening shift on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.
Looking at Su Yu's admission notice, Director Xu asked in surprise, "You managed to get a spot?"
"Yes, Director Xu, as you know, I can never keep up with the experienced workers, which is also related to my poor health. I feel ashamed and sorry for the factory, so I've been thinking about learning something so that I can learn from their strengths and make up for my weaknesses. I'll strive not to fall behind, not to hold the factory back, and to become a truly useful person to the factory."
Director Xu sighed, "Studying is hard work, you still need to take good care of your health. Okay, I'll arrange it for you later, you can work two night shifts every week from now on. That way, I won't arrange any for you this month, you just focus on your studies, and I'll arrange night shifts for you once your studies are more stable."
Hearing Director Xu's words, Su Yu was filled with gratitude. "Director, don't worry, I'll try my best to finish learning the material in a month, and then I can work the Saturday night shift every week without any problem!"
Director Xu: "...Take your time learning, there's no rush." Su has no idea how difficult learning is. Don't ruin your health in the end.
After leaving the production department office, Su Yu hurried to the labor union to find Yan Fang and tell her the good news. Partly because of their recent interactions, she felt Yan Fang was a friend worth making. Another reason was that she wanted more people to know she was now a vocational school student. She wanted to subtly change people's impressions of her.
Yan Fang was overjoyed, a feeling of relief welling up inside her. It felt like she was watching a child grow up. Cough cough, no, it was more like a motivated comrade finally getting better and better.
After Su Yu went to work, Yan Fang went back to her office and discussed the matter.
"This comrade is quite ambitious," said Committee Member Zhang.
Committee member Hu nodded in agreement, "Generally speaking, it's rare for someone her age to be able to keep up with their studies. It's quite remarkable that she still has this determination after falling behind for so long."
Taking the opportunity, Yan Fang said, "Since our union is recruiting this year, how about we let Comrade Su Yu come? She's capable and has a degree..."
“Fang, this diploma is only two levels. So many workers have gone to study it, but none of them have been able to get a graduation certificate,” said Lin, the union official.
Committee Member Zhang nodded, "Yes, we haven't even started learning yet, there's no rush."
Committee Member Hu is fine; it's all true. Going to school is one thing, but very few people actually graduate normally. Otherwise, countless people would have become vocational school graduates.
Moreover, the students attending the lectures were majoring in accounting.
This will probably take at least a year and a half to learn...
Yan Fang couldn't refute what everyone else said; in fact, she herself was a little unsure. Although Comrade Su Yu was very determined, studying was not such a simple matter.
She now hopes that Su Yu can obtain her graduation certificate in a year, so that even if she misses this year's recruitment, she will still have a chance next year.
Su Yu had no idea that everyone had high hopes for her; her goal was to pass the exam within a month.
Last night, she flipped through the books at home. Aside from memorizing some theoretical knowledge, she had no problem with the case studies and calculations. Besides, vocational school isn't like university; they don't teach much—just three books. Su Yu felt she could finish one in a few days.
To save time, she would flip through books during lunch.
Su Lin casually flipped through the book beside her and asked in surprise, "Sister, you can understand this?"
"What's there to not understand? I understand everything at a glance," Su Yu said confidently. She had to let these brats know that she, the eldest sister, wasn't just all talk, but also had real skills.
"Bullshit!" Liu Mei pursed her lips and lowered her head to eat.
If my sister-in-law were that smart, would she have been able to languish in the factory for so long? She knows perfectly well what kind of brains the Su family members have, with Su Dazhi and Su Zhi being so stupid.
But now she dared not utter a sound. She was starving in the morning, and at noon she finally got the same amount of lunch as everyone else. If she offended her sister-in-law, she would cause trouble again.
Su Lin didn't believe it either, "Sis, why didn't you go to high school before?"
Seeing that she was being suspected, Su Yu rolled her eyes and glanced around. "Why? It's all because of you heartless people! If I hadn't taken care of you back then, I might be in college by now! And you're asking me why I didn't go to high school? I'm not as lucky as you to have such a good older sister like me!" This was the truth; the original owner's grades were actually quite good. It was all because of these brats!
