Before he finished speaking, a middle-aged woman stepped into the garment workshop.
Although Cheng Maixiang did not know this person, she could guess that she was Yang Jihong, the wife of the Liujia Village Brigade Secretary, Liu Wenzhen's mother, and the person in charge of the Liujia Village Garment Workshop.
Manager Wu felt embarrassed when he saw that everyone's eyes were on him.
She did make an appointment with Yang Jihong to visit the Liujia Village Garment Factory today, but both parties agreed to go in the afternoon, and they would go to Liujia Village after visiting Shuangshui Village, so that neither party would be too embarrassed.
But she never expected that Yang Jihong was so unreliable that he actually snatched people from Shuangshui Village.
The people present were all smart people, so they naturally saw through Manager Wu's plan. Section Chief Zeng smiled and shook his head slightly.
Manager Wu has been following Section Chief Zeng closely, hoping to leave some impression on him, but he didn't dare to go too far, fearing that he would think he was deliberately trying to curry favor with him, which would be counterproductive.
Everything was going smoothly, and Section Chief Zeng would chat with him from time to time. But when Yang Jihong arrived, everything was completely ruined.
Manager Wu was a little annoyed, and his face showed some anger involuntarily, but Yang Jihong didn't understand and kept inviting everyone present to go to Liujia Village to take a look.
Seeing the situation becoming increasingly awkward, Cheng Maixiang smiled and said to the three of them, "Since we've seen enough of Shuangshui Village, and Aunt Yang has invited you so graciously, why don't Section Chief Zeng, Manager Wu, and Reporter Ruan all go take a look? It's also a way to support our collective economy and take care of our fellow farmers. If Aunt Yang doesn't mind, I'll go along and see if there's anything worth learning from our Shuangshui Village garment workshop."
Section Chief Zeng immediately developed a favorable impression of Cheng Maixiang. He never thought that a young girl like her could be so broad-minded. When others were clearly trying to steal her business, she could speak up for them without any hesitation.
Manager Wu was also very grateful to her. If she had gone alone, it would have been extremely embarrassing, but Cheng Maixiang suggested that everyone go, which invisibly helped her out of the predicament.
Manager Wu smiled and nodded at her, but Yang Jihong misunderstood, thinking she wanted to go along and take the opportunity to say bad things about Liujia Village Garment Factory and ruin this cooperation. She couldn't help but frown and said, "Cheng Maixiang, I see your garment factory is quite busy. Do you still have time to come to our Liujia Village?"
These words were extremely rude, and Zhou Minqi and Ruan Peiling's expressions immediately changed. Cheng Maixiang didn't care at all, and continued to smile and said, "Aunt Yang is right. Then please treat them well."
"Don't worry, they are all distinguished guests of Liujia Village. We will definitely treat them well and won't be as shabby as you are."
Cheng Maixiang smiled and sent everyone out. Section Chief Zeng turned around and looked at the female workers in the garment workshop. From the time Yang Jihong entered the door to the time everyone left, no one looked up. They were all busy, as if nothing had happened. Section Chief Zeng couldn't help but look at Cheng Maixiang deeply again.
Cheng Maixiang watched the Liujia Village tractor drive away before returning to the garment workshop. The female workers breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, it's different when a leader is inspecting. I was so nervous I almost got the size wrong."
Shen Qingyun's wife couldn't help but ask, "Maizi, that Yang Jihong is clearly here to steal our business. Why don't you just kick her out? Why are you so polite and persuade everyone to go to Liujia Village to see it?"
"That's right. If Maizi hadn't said yesterday that no matter who came or what happened, she was not allowed to look up, let alone make a sound, and could only embroider clothes, I would have beaten that old hag out with a stick long ago. She would never have been so arrogant in our place."
Seeing everyone's indignation, Cheng Maixiang couldn't help but smile and comfort them, "Don't worry, aunties, whatever Liujia Village plans, it's all in vain. Your most important task now is to make clothes. Now that the Guangshi Garment Factory has been affiliated and the contract has been signed, everyone's tasks will be even more difficult from now on."
"Since you have an idea, we won't worry about it. As for the clothes, don't worry. Earning money is hard work, but it's much easier than digging in the fields."
Now the female workers in the garment workshop are convinced of Cheng Maixiang's abilities and naturally obey her orders. Now that they see that she doesn't care, they are relieved and work seriously.
Cheng Maixiang walked into the office and saw that Cheng's mother had already inspected all the clothes and packed and sealed them. She smiled and said, "Mom, don't do it anymore. Let's go home first."
Cheng's mother nodded, locked the office door, and said goodbye to the female workers in the garment workshop. Everyone knew that every weekend, Cheng Maixiang's boyfriend would come from the city, and Cheng's mother would leave work early to entertain him. Seeing her about to leave, they all smiled and nodded.
When they arrived home, they saw Lin Qingwan busy in the kitchen. Cheng's mother quickly snatched the things from her hands and said repeatedly, "No, no, it's unacceptable that you are asked to cook on your first day as your in-laws. This is unacceptable in any way."
Lin Qingwan did bring her daughter to visit the Cheng family today, but she was used to being busy and didn't have the awareness of being a guest. Seeing Mrs. Cheng busy in the kitchen alone, she couldn't help but come over to help.
Sister Cheng smiled and said, "Mom, I've been trying to persuade Sister Lin for a long time, but she won't listen. Now that Maizi is here, why don't you take her out and talk to her?"
Without saying a word, Cheng Maixiang pulled Lin Qingwan out of the kitchen and came to her own room. She saw Qiaomai and Yingying playing Gobang, and Lin Jiayu was helping them by pointing and gesturing. The two little girls' faces were tense. Qiaomai glanced at Lin Jiayu from time to time, her mouth pouting, a look of disgust on her face.
Cheng Maixiang came in and immediately ran over, holding her hand and acting coquettishly, "Aunt, please take your boyfriend away quickly. He's always giving stupid advice here, and it's making it impossible for Yingying and I to play chess properly."
