Song Yunuan strode confidently to the table where the brigade’s cadre was seated.
She didn’t sit down but stood in front of everyone.
Song Liang and his wife exchanged a look, not knowing what Little Nuan was up to speaking a few words.
Though young, Song Yunuan’s face wore a smile as she stood before the crowd, not the least bit intimidated.
She said, “These past few days, people keep stopping
to ask when the second recruitnt phase will begin, and why so were chosen over others, along with many other questions.
I’d like to respond to them all at once here.”
Chu Zizhou: …
Should we start calling you Director Song soday?
Soone in the crowd then said, “Yeah, that’s right, Little Nuan, when will more hiring happen?”
“Little Nuan, I can make clothes too.”
“Little Nuan, I can even embroider.”
Song Yunuan raised her hands and pressed them downwards.
Actually, no one had seen this gesture before, but strangely, they all seed to understand it.
Old Mrs.
Song whispered to Old Mrs.
Sun beside her, “Stop talking, listen to what my Little Nuan says.”
Old Mrs.
Sun wanted to make a face, but seeing Song Yunuan seed to be looking at her, she quickly put on a smile.
The din in the large dining hall suddenly fell silent.
Chu Zizhou truly watched Song Yunuan with a sense of novelty, finding her quite commanding.
Her voice rang out clear and bright, even reaching Gu Huai’an, who had just walked into the brigade.
He got out of the car, followed by Xia Xindong and Old Mr.
Gong from the other side, who had just returned from the base’s pharmaceutical lab.
“…The second batch of workers will be recruited after the autumn harvest, the criteria will be the sa as the first batch, though there might be so additions.
Currently, it’s open to those under forty, regardless of gender, but they should be dexterous with so basic sewing skills…
This hiring will mainly target those in more difficult family situations, giving them priority.”
The villagers nodded in agreent, “That’s right, those should be the criteria.”
But Song Yunuan quickly changed tack, “Actually, what I mainly want to ntion is our village’s current developnt.
Think back to the past and look at the present.
Erdao River Village has greatly improved in spirit.
This can’t be separated from the hard work of Brigade Leader Chu, Branch Secretary Guan, and Accountant Li, especially Brigade Leader Chu, who gave up the bustling life of the capital city, choosing to shine in our poor and broken little village.
Shouldn’t we express our gratitude to Brigade Leader Chu?”
Nowadays’ Song Liang wasn’t the sa Song Liang who used to feel ashad when talking about his past work at the brigade.
He sat properly on a small stool, not getting angry at whatever his daughter said, and besides, she hadn’t really said anything about him.
He hadn’t been successful as the brigade leader, with much of the responsibility lying with himself.
If he were to be brigade leader now, he was certain he would do better than before.
But he was no longer interested.
He wanted to earn money for his daughter.
And yet, Zhilan Garnt Factory still couldn’t do without Little Nuan.
He watched Song Yunuan with a beaming smile.
He felt, deep down, that his daughter could do an even better job as brigade leader than Chu Zizhou.
He chuckled to himself inwardly.
At that mont, the villagers felt touched.
They didn’t think too much about it, though they were very careful about Song Liang’s feelings, knowing that he was sitting right there among them.
Old Mr.
Hou said with feeling, “Little Nuan, you’re right, that’s exactly the case; we should be grateful.”
Old Mr.
You said, “I’m indeed thankful to Brigade Leader Chu.
I’ve actually wanted to invite him over for a al at my place, but I’ve been too shy.”
Uncle Sanshu from the side interjected, “Oh, co off it.
Your wife wouldn’t stop nagging, and kids from the capital city wouldn’t eat at your place.”
Old Mr.
You glared, “That was before.
My house is clean now, or else I wouldn’t have dared to say that.”
Li Dawen spoke up, “We all know the score, in fact, forr Brigade Leader Song did quite a good job as well.”
Song Liang: …
Thank you, no need to ntion .
Chu Zizhou felt a bit delighted inside, and thought, “Indeed, everyone likes being praised.”
Song Yunuan continued with a smile, “We are all part of Erdao River Village, and when the village prospers, we all benefit.
If we work together, our lives can only get better.
But if we don’t cherish what we have, it will affect our village and drag the cadres down, taking us back to the days before liberation.”
How to maintain our current progress?
That’s by abiding by the law and not engaging in conscience-violating misdeeds.
Being chosen as a model village for spiritual civilization isn’t just about cleanliness and tidiness, it includes a lot more, as you all have heard just now: caring for the vulnerable, respecting the elderly, not mistreating daughters-in-law, not favouring boys over girls, and promoting harmony among siblings and sisters-in-law, among other criteria.
So people think too simply and selfishly, disregarding the collective honor.
I won’t na nas today, but certain individuals should pay attention.
Trading in children and marriages between close relatives are not only illegal but also forbidden.
Anyone who breaks the law knowingly, I suggest they be publicly criticized through the village loudspeakers.
I also hope villagers will willingly accept the supervision of the brigade and the village monitoring team!”
Her words left the crowd stunned.
Most people’s gazes fell on Old Mrs.
Zhou.
Old Mrs.
Zhou nearly jumped up.
Is this not naming nas?
She practically pointed right at my nose.
But seeing the looks from the people around her, if she didn’t confess, it would be even more embarrassing.
Anyway, next month she would have an inco of thirty yuan to look forward to, which is what city factory workers earn after much toil, and she got it for doing nothing.
She lowered her eyelids, thinking, let whoever wants to look, look.
As long as I pretend not to know, it’s not about .
The people standing outside were all looking at Song Yunuan with smiles in their eyes.
Especially Gu Huai’an, whose eyes were full of mirth.
How had he co across such a lively girl?
After finishing her speech, Song Yunuan asked Chu Zizhou, “Was I right?”
Chu Zizhou hurriedly nodded, “You were right.”
Song Yunuan: “Is there anything else that needs to be added?”
Chu Zizhou shook his head, “No, nothing.”
But Branch Secretary Guan picked up on sothing, “Little Nuan, you just ntioned the village monitoring team, do we have one?”
Song Yunuan was waiting for this question, “Although we didn’t have one just now, we do now.
How about this, let’s take advantage of the village assembly to officially form a monitoring team?
As our village gets better, our population may also increase, which would make the brigade’s organization seem insufficient.
We need to bolster our team power, for instance, with a won’s director, a public safety director, and a security team leader.
Let’s elect these three positions from within the village monitoring team.”
Chu Zizhou finally found his voice, “How do we select the monitoring team?”
“Let all the villagers participate in the election, but the candidates must be fair, caring, and live in harmony with their families…”
Only those who et the above criteria are eligible to run.
Song Yunuan smiled, “Alright, that’s all from .”
Chu Zizhou: …
You didn’t just say a couple of words, you ca to give us a leadership speech and guide our work.
But what Song Yunuan said and did was right, so after consulting with Branch Secretary Guan and Accountant Li, they proceeded with the election.
No one expected it, but Song Yunuan was elected with the highest number of votes.
It was quite preposterous.
Old Mrs.
Song was stunned; she, her son, and her daughter-in-law had certainly not written Little Nuan’s na.
