Cheng Maixiang said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "If you take this position, it means half of the garment factory's lifeline is in your hands. You can't just sit there all day and let everyone go hungry."
Shen Qingyun's wife was startled and patted her chest, shaking her hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, Maizi, I get nervous when I think of so many people waiting to eat. Please don't lift me up so high, I'm afraid I'll fall and get hurt."
Everyone burst into laughter.
Cheng Maixiang wanted to talk to the female workers about the future development of the garment workshop, but suddenly someone rushed in from outside and said breathlessly, "Maizi, hurry up, come with me to the brigade headquarters."
Cheng Maixiang saw that it was Accountant Liu from the brigade. He was sweating profusely in the cold weather and it seemed that he had run all the way from the brigade headquarters.
Aunt Liu threw him a towel from the garment workshop and couldn't help asking, "Accountant Liu, what's the hurry? You're sweating profusely from running around. Be careful not to catch a cold if you go out."
Accountant Liu wiped his head with a towel and said anxiously, "Maizi, someone from the county is here and wants to see you. The team leader asked me to come and see you. You should go to the team headquarters right away."
Cheng Maixiang was shocked. She didn't know what she had done to provoke the county and have them come all the way to Shuangshui Village to look for her. She hurriedly followed Accountant Liu to the brigade headquarters.
In the brigade headquarters, there were two men who looked like cadres. The eldest brother Cheng Maiqing was accompanying them and seemed to be whispering something. What Cheng Maixiang did not expect was that Ruan Peiling had also come to Shuangshui Village.
When Ruan Peiling saw her, she winked at her and silently said three words, "Something good has happened."
Cheng Maixiang's heart was immediately relieved. Seeing his sister coming, Cheng Maiqing hurriedly introduced her to the two people beside him, "Secretary Song, Secretary Fang, this is my sister Cheng Maixiang, and she is also the person in charge of our Shuangshui Village Garment Factory."
Then he said to Cheng Maixiang, "Maizi, this is Secretary Song from Linwen County, and this is his secretary."
Before Cheng Maixiang could greet the two, Ruan Peiling added, "He's also the top scorer in liberal arts in our East Province, and a classmate of mine."
A tall man in his forties said with a smile, "At only seventeen or eighteen, you've got so much drive and determination. It's not easy!"
"Secretary Song, don't dare praise her like that. She's still young, and if you praise her, I'm afraid she'll be so proud of herself."
Secretary Song laughed and said, "This young comrade studied very hard in school and won first place in the liberal arts in the eastern province. She also opened a garment factory in the village, created a clothing brand, and sells clothes to Guangzhou and Hong Kong, which has brought great benefits to the villagers. She has made such great achievements, and it is not worthy of my praise. Not only should I praise her, but I should also establish her as an advanced figure in our county!"
What? Become an advanced figure? Cheng Maixiang was stunned.
