Huh? What? The raw material factory needs someone like me?
Without me, the raw material factory simply couldn't function properly in the area of translation.
At first, Xu Zhitie was confused, but by the end, he felt elated. "That's right, the raw material factory is my home!"
"The raw material plant is mine! If it prospers, I prosper too!"
When Chen Yunyun mentioned that she planned to work for a few more years before retiring, Xu Zhitie's eyes widened in surprise. "Are you serious?"
Chen Yunyun started to lie again, "Of course it's true. You see, I'm a woman with three children. In a few years, I won't be able to take care of them all, so I'll definitely have to hand over the factory manager position to someone more capable."
Xu Zhitie had wanted the position of factory director for a long time, and had tried many dirty tricks in the past, but had failed.
But one day, Chen Yunyun suddenly told him that she wanted to give it up. Although it was several years later, it was a stroke of good luck for Xu Zhitie.
Xu Zhitie's expression could be described as ecstatic. In such a state of joy, Xu Zhitie became unusually respectful towards Chen Yunyun.
"Director Chen, although you are a woman, I truly admire you!"
Chen Yunyun leaned against the bedside and chuckled.
"When I become the factory manager, I will definitely lead our raw material plant to get better and better!"
Chen Yunyun: ... (I just said a few words of praise to you, and you actually took it seriously)
[System Notification: The male protagonist's crisis has been resolved, and the reward has been sent to your system inventory. Please check back at any time.]
The system notification finally arrived, and Chen Yunyun breathed a sigh of relief.
She interrupted Xu Zhitie, who was rambling on about his future, and said in a distant tone, "Alright, I'm sleepy, you can go now."
Xu Zhitie was speaking enthusiastically when Chen Yunyun interrupted him. Seeing that Chen Yunyun had closed her eyes, he had no choice but to leave.
"What mischief are you plotting now? Didn't you say Xu Zhitie is a scumbag?" Xia Lan had heard almost the entire conversation, and she was certain that Chen Yunyun had no good intentions.
Chen Yunyun, who had been pretending to be asleep, opened her eyes and was clearly very alert. "Director Xia has good eyesight; you can't hide this from me."
Chen Yunyun then explained, "Too many people want this factory manager position. My good-for-nothing brother and Xu Zhitie are both no good. Let them fight for it."
"Moreover, Xu Zhitie is the kind of person who is most prone to getting carried away. It will be easy to find fault with him when the time comes."
"Well, you've got quite a few tricks up your sleeve. When I first heard this, I thought you were really going to give him the factory manager position."
Actually, it's not Xia Lan's fault. The blame lies with Chen Yunyun's acting, which was so realistic that Xia Lan almost misunderstood.
Thinking about all the exciting things that would happen in the future, Xia Lan and Chen Yunyun couldn't stop laughing.
——
Song Xiaofen and Chen Laosan, who claimed they were going to collect firewood, actually ran off to slack off.
"Mother, I won't serve that ungrateful woman." Chen Laosan picked up a small bundle of firewood and complained to Song Xiaofen.
"And I only found out today that Chen Zhaodi has actually divorced Xu Zhijun!"
"What?" Song Xiaofen was stunned.
How could we possibly get a divorce?
Chen Yunyun's mother-in-law passed away, and she is now the only one in charge of the household. Her husband is serving in the military and provides her with living expenses every month.
Why is she so upset about wanting a divorce?
Wait a minute, they're divorced, so why is Chen Yunyun still raising someone else's child and living in the Xu family's old house?
This news is probably fake.
"It's absolutely true!" Chen Laosan heard many people say the same thing; Chen Yunyun's divorce was common knowledge in Xujia Village.
As for why Chen Yunyun is still able to live in Xu Zhijun's old house, it seems that Xu Zhijun gave the old house to Chen Yunyun.
Song Xiaofen was even more dumbfounded.
This couple is really bizarre.
One divorced woman still raised someone else's child, while the other divorced woman gave away her ancestral home.
They didn't know that Chen Yunyun had earned all of this through her own efforts (and threats).
"Mother, don't you think Chen Zhaodi is like a different person? Before, did she ever dare to disobey you and Father?"
"But look at her now, she won't suffer any loss. We only hit her a couple of times, and she colluded with these people to swallow up our family's savings!"
"Mom, will I still be able to get married this year?!"
As Mrs. Song pondered her son's words, she felt a pang of sadness. Yes, how could people change so much?
Chen Zhaodi was someone she watched grow up. She used to have a bad temper and was easy to control.
But now, people are full of tricks and schemes, and it's easy to fall into their traps.
The two were gathering firewood on their way home when they happened to pass by Ziyun Field.
Someone was busy in the field, saying, "It's still Director Chen's family secret recipe that works! Look how fast this purple cloud is growing!"
Song Xiaofen had sharp ears and overheard Director Chen mentioning the family secret recipe. She and Chen Laosan exchanged a glance. What family secret recipe? How come they didn't know about it?
It took the two of them a while to figure out what was going on.
It turns out that Chen Yunyun got her factory manager position through a family secret recipe.
Chen Laosan said, "Mother, why did you give this secret recipe to her but not to me?"
Grandma Song was still protesting, "What secret recipe do we have? If there really were such a magical recipe, would your father still need to toil in the fields every day?"
"If it's not from our family, where did Chen Yunyun get the secret recipe from?"
Grandma Song was also thinking about this matter.
The more they thought about it, the more suspicious they became; there were quite a few things about Chen Yunyun.
"Mother, do you think it's possible that Chen Yunyun has been replaced?"
There are actually quite a few such sayings in rural areas, and Grandma Song thinks so too. How could a person's personality change so much in just one year?
