Chapter 422: Chapter 422: Getting Too Big for Their Boots

"Yahong," Director Liu interrupted her, "Your second uncle isn’t afraid of her. Don’t you understand by now? You keep referring to her as a mere individual peddler of buns, but she’s the person in charge of the Qin Family Village’s vegetable greenhouses. Even the few technicians our bureau sent to the Qin Family Village were opportunities your uncle thick-facedly begged from the county head and forcefully inserted there. Frankly speaking, they’ve already sought technicians from the Capital Agricultural Science and Technology Institute; they don’t need us at all. You can’t even see that. It seems you’ve really been spoiled by your older brother and the others."

Liu Yahong was unconvinced, "But we went there and did help the villagers, didn’t we? The village chief of Qin Family Village said that one technician was not enough, and they needed our support, right?"

Director Liu was so angry that he started pounding the table, "Can’t you tell that was just polite conversation?"

"Even if it was just polite conversation, we truly did help them. Why should they treat me this way? They are in the wrong for hitting someone, Uncle. I won’t go back to the office..." If she went back to the office, she would have no chance at all.

"What will you do if you don’t go back to the office? Continue to pester the technicians from the Agricultural Research Institute in the Qin Family Village? Do you know that his fiancée is still waiting in the capital for him to return and marry her?"

Seeing her deluded demeanor, Director Liu frowned.

"I never expected you to go to Qin Family Village with such intentions. Yahong, do you understand what the vegetable greenhouses in Qin Family Village mean? They are the first national case of large-scale promotion of off-season vegetables. If successful, not only will Qin Family Village be celebrated, but also the participating technicians will have their names go down in history. It’s a tremendous honor, and I secured such a great opportunity for you, yet all you think about is love..."

Director Liu waved his hand tiredly. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

"Just go. Don’t go to Qin Family Village tomorrow, return directly to the bureau to work. I will send someone else there, and also, don’t think about creating opportunities to go against Lin Chuxia anymore; she’s not someone you can contend with. Your second uncle isn’t afraid of her; he doesn’t want to offend her."

With that, Director Liu only hoped his niece would take his words to heart.

Liu Yahong was shocked by Director Liu’s words, but became dismissive again upon hearing the latter part.

What ’names going down in history,’ that’s an overstatement.

Second Uncle always deals in mystical nonsense, in the end, it’s just because he’s afraid of offending Lin Chuxia and doesn’t want to help her.

...

Director Liu was still considering how to handle this matter. Although the village chief was quite easy to talk to and had agreed to give Liu Yahong another chance, the conflict with Lin Chuxia was there, and it wasn’t appropriate for him to send Liu Yahong back to Qin Family Village.

Apart from that, the conflict between Liu Yahong and Lin Chuxia appeared to have put Liu Yahong at a disadvantage on the surface, but he couldn’t take her word for it. He might even need to give Lin Chuxia some face and inquire about it.

Liu Yahong incessantly referred to Lin Chuxia as just a bun seller, but Director Liu wasn’t as shallow or naive as his niece.

Not to mention what the vegetable greenhouses could bring to Qin Family Village and Ancheng County at the moment, Lin Chuxia’s name was tied to the Xiyang Food Factory, Qin’s Buns Shop, and other Qin Family Village industries. Which one wouldn’t be noted in the County Committee’s annual report?

She was a talent that even Bai County wanted to woo before the New Year. How foolish would he be to offend her?

Moreover, he had already dispatched technicians to Qin Family Village. Once the vegetable greenhouses achieved results, he, the chief of the Agricultural Bureau, would be the first to benefit.

Director Liu would say he had no regrets now, but it was impossible; he shouldn’t have sent his niece to Qin Family Village out of consideration for his older brother’s face.
