218 Unbelievable

Li Ping burst out laughing when she heard this. “Although your mother gave birth to useless people, she’s smarter than you.”

As Madam Sun, who was sitting at the side, watched the women argue, she smoked calmly. As long as there was someone serving her three meals a day and she could smoke, these people could do whatever they wanted. When her son came out and she had someone to support her again, she would deal with these unruly women.

It was fine if Li Ping said that, but when she saw that her mother was also discouraging her, Sun Nan was so angry that she took a deep breath and said, “Mom, how do you know that it won’t work? No matter what, I want to give it a try. If I really can’t get chosen, I’ll give up and won’t think about this anymore.”

When Li Ping heard this, she continued to make sarcastic remarks. “You’re just a good-for-nothing. Do you even remember how to write so many years after graduating from primary school? What are you boasting about?!”

Although Li Ping felt that Yu Bing wouldn’t let Sun Nan apply, it was best to make Sun Nan give up on this idea just in case. If Sun Nan really got lucky and became a factory worker, wouldn’t Su Qi be able to use her second daughter to bully her at home?

Li Ping couldn’t tolerate this, so she spared no effort in mocking Sun Nan to make Sun Nan give up on this idea.

Unfortunately, Sun Nan didn’t fall for it at all. In the next few days, she attended night school and read and practiced writing whenever she had the time.

When Sun Nan successfully passed the selection and joined the food factory, the Sun family was still in disbelief.

Yu Bing disdained abusing her power to take revenge for personal grudges. As long as there was nothing wrong with their moral character, she was willing to give capable people a chance.

Sun Xi ran into her and Sun Nan’s room and looked at her second sister excitedly. “Second Sister, did you find an opportunity to take revenge on Yu Bing for getting Father arrested?”

When Sun Nan heard this, she frowned and asked, “Who said this to you?”

Sun Xi replied honestly, “I overheard Aunt talking about it. She said that since you entered the factory, you have a chance to attack Yu Bing.”

Sun Nan was stunned for a moment. After a moment of silence, she said to Sun Xi solemnly, “Listen, Dad did a lot of wrong things. He helped Sun Yu target the factory director, so he was arrested and sentenced! However, the factory director disregarded the past and gave me a fair chance. If it weren’t for the factory director’s magnanimity, I might not have been able to enter the factory and become a worker.”

“We have to distinguish right from wrong.” Upon hearing this, Sun Xi nodded. She had always been conflicted about this.

On the one hand, she felt that if not for Yu Bing, her father wouldn’t have been arrested. However, she also knew that Yu Bing couldn’t be blamed for this. It wasn’t Yu Bing who forced her father to accept bribes, nor was it Yu Bing who forced her cousin, Sun Yu, to set her up. Now that she heard her second sister’s words, she understood what she couldn’t figure out previously.

It was the farming period, so Wu Jin stipulated that every family in the village send out a young and strong laborer. Therefore, in just a week, the brand-new factory was constructed. It would be put into use after having putty powder left on for three days.

The production time of the red oil bean paste was a month. Yu Bing specifically arranged for two workers to wash the bean paste that they had bought with warm water in advance before being parched.

Yu Bing did the first round personally, then she parched them for another five days.

They had purchased enough chili for this round. In order to achieve the best taste, after washing it, they still had to dry it for two days.

The new round of recruitment was already completed, so Yu Bing taught the newcomers how to concoct the red oil chili. At this time, the factory’s construction was already completed and there were more than ten large earth vats placed inside.

Yu Bing moved all the materials from the courtyard into the factory. Then, she mixed the red oil chili and bean paste evenly for the second round of condiment mixing.

After stirring it evenly, she placed it in a large jar and poured in a suitable amount of oil. Then, she sealed it and marinated it for 20 days before dividing it into small sterilized glass bottles.

There were already 33 full-time employees in the factory. Coupled with Xiao Sheng, a part-time employee, the food factory could be considered a small processing plant now.

There were two people in the finance department, the accountant, Wen Qin, and the new cashier, Zhou Mi.

Zhao Lin, the female director, was in charge of the administrative department, which was mainly in charge of the logistics and personnel assessment of the factory. The position of the director had very few responsibilities, so after Yu Bing and Wu Jin discussed it, they let her hold two positions.
