Wen Li remained silent for a long time. She thought of Grandpa Yuan, who made sure that all the people of China could have enough to eat. He was truly great!

However, the timeline of the novel world is similar to that of the real world. Although the names of the great figures are different, the settings are the same. With the efforts of these predecessors, I believe this world will get better and better!

Wen Li suddenly felt very insignificant; she couldn't change the suffering of these girls on her own.

"Aren't Chen Jie and Zhou Lao Er breaking the law?"

Erlaizi shrugged: "I don't think so! I don't know either! Anyway, if the police station can't handle it, what can a common citizen like me understand?"

Wen Li felt like cursing. Even if she wanted to help those girls, she was powerless to do so.

She can't do business now, and she can't just take those girls away. She needs a letter of introduction to go anywhere now, which is impossible.

One person's power is too insignificant to change anything overnight.

Wen Li admitted that she didn't have the ability, but she felt she could still improve the lives of the villagers.

Wen Li glanced at the back mountain, then rode her bicycle to the county town.

Previously, she only thought about dealing with Jiang Yue'er and surviving under the protagonist's halo before considering anything else.

Now she wants to do something for everyone.

Upon arriving in the county town, Wen Li went directly to the hospital pharmacy.

"Give me the note!" When the nurse saw Wen Li coming over, she thought she wanted to get a prescription, so she put down the knitting she was doing and held out her hand.

"Nurse, I have something I'd like to ask you. Do you have a moment?" Wen Li said, taking out two White Rabbit milk candies and putting them into the nurse's hand.

"Oh? What's wrong?" Seeing that no one was around, the nurse quickly took the milk candy and her attitude towards Wen Li improved a lot.

Do you accept herbal medicines at our hospital?

The nurse frowned. "You want to sell herbs?"

"No, no, no!" Wen Li quickly waved her hand, took out the letter of introduction, and handed it to the nurse.

"I'm an educated youth from the Qianjin Brigade. Coincidentally, I've learned a little about traditional Chinese medicine and I also know about herbs. Our village is located at the foot of the mountain, where there are many herbs. The brigade leader thought I would teach the villagers about herbs, which would also generate income for the village. So I thought I'd come and ask first!"

Seeing that Wen Li was not buying and selling privately, the nurse finally relaxed.

"Yes, I'll take it, but it needs to be properly prepared. You look quite young; do you know how to prepare herbs?"

Wen Li's face lit up with joy. "Of course, thank you so much, Nurse! I'll go back and tell the captain the good news, and I'll come back to thank you again then!"

"Okay, you've made your plan. Just have your village head go to Director Pan at the pharmacy; he's in charge of this!"

"Oh! Thank you!"

After leaving the hospital, Wen Li returned to the village and went directly to the brigade leader.

When Wen Li explained the situation, the captain's face lit up with joy.

Then, as if remembering something, she hesitated, "Wen Zhiqing, are you really willing to teach everyone about herbs?"

Only Old Wu in the village knew about herbs. Although he taught the villagers some common herbs for clearing heat and detoxifying, they couldn't expect to know anything else.

If Wenli could teach everyone about herbs and how to process them, the village would have an extra source of income, and everyone's lives would be better.

"Captain, I know a little about herbs, but when it comes to processing them, Old Wang is the real expert!"

The captain fell silent. Old Wang's identity was special. If he were to teach everyone how to process herbs, there might be trouble later!

"Captain, Old Wang is a person who has been sent to the countryside. The government sent him here for reformation. He has excellent medical skills. If he can contribute to the village, wouldn't that prove that his reformation has been successful?"

The captain gave Wen Li a deep look. "Is this your real purpose?"

Wen Li chuckled awkwardly, "You can't hide anything from me. This is a win-win situation!"

"Let me think about it!" The brigade leader certainly wanted everyone to have a better life, but if he wanted to use the people in the cowshed, he had to submit a report to the commune.

The commune might not agree.

Wen Li smiled and nodded. She believed that the brigade leader would agree, as this was a matter of livelihood for everyone in the village.

How much can people earn in a year just by guarding that little bit of land?

It's not easy for everyone to fill their stomachs these days, so I'm sure the brigade leader will quickly come up with a solution given this opportunity.

Sure enough, after Wen Li left, the brigade leader quickly convened a meeting with the village chief and the accountant.

This is a business that benefits the village, so everyone naturally agreed.

When it came to Old Man Wang, everyone hesitated.

"How about we ask Old Man Wu to teach everyone?"

"Don't even think about it. If Old Wu wanted to, he would have taught everyone long ago. Haven't you heard the saying that teaching a disciple can lead to the master starving?"

The village chief had actually mentioned this before. There are many medicinal herbs on the back mountain, but no one recognizes them. He had asked Old Man Wu to teach everyone.

As expected, he gave a perfunctory lesson on recognizing several common herbs, such as purslane and dandelion, which everyone is familiar with.

As for the others, they simply don't want to teach them.

In the end, the matter was dropped.

That's their ability; if they don't want to, they don't have to!

Now that Wen Li has brought it up, the brigade leader and the village chief agree, but Old Man Wang's identity is sensitive, and they are afraid that something might go wrong at the commune.

"Since everyone thinks it's feasible, then tomorrow Lao Jiang and I will go to the commune to talk to Director Guo. We'll wait until the approval document comes through before making any further plans. This matter can't be rushed; it's not even spring yet!"

"good!"

That's how they decided.

When Wen Li returned to the educated youth compound, it was already dark.

The others had already gone back inside to warm themselves by the fire. Wen Li lit the fire first, and only started eating after the house had warmed up.

She ate two bowls of rice after being hungry all day before stopping.

She didn't rush to rest, but quietly waited for news from the village.

Sure enough, around nine o'clock, the village suddenly became noisy.

Shu Yun slept in the cave until it was almost dark before she woke up. When she woke up, she found that she was all alone in the cave.

After searching for Jiang Chen for several days without finding him, she hurriedly went down the mountain to Jiang Yue'er's house. Upon hearing that Jiang Chen had not returned, both women became anxious.

The two exchanged a few words before remembering to look for Jiang Chen.

When people saw this scene, their first thought was, "Jiang Chen is really skilled. His wife and mistress not only don't fight, but they can also get along peacefully."

The village chief brought Jiang Yue'er and Shu Yun to the educated youth compound and went directly to Wen Li.

"Wen, I heard you were with Shu and Jiang this morning? Do you know where Jiang went?"

Wen Li glanced at Shu Yun. She definitely wouldn't tell the truth; she just didn't know what she had told everyone.

But Wen Li had no intention of hiding anything and told everyone what had happened that morning. Of course, she wouldn't tell everyone where Jiang Chen had gone.

"I beat them up and went down the mountain. As for Jiang Zhiqing... I don't know where he went!"

"That Shu Zhiqing is so vicious!"

After hearing this, everyone started pointing and whispering about Jiang Yue'er and Shu Yun.
