"I figured it out!" Shen Qiqi announced excitedly, with wisdom glittering in her eyes.

"We can ask the educated youth for help!" Lu Qing's eyes lit up, then dimmed again. "Although the educated youth have received education, they may not know much about fruit tree planting..." Shen Qiqi smiled slyly. "How do we know if we don't try? What if there are some knowledgeable people? Even if there aren't, we can pool our wisdom and maybe find a breakthrough!"

The next morning, Shen Qiqi took Lu Qing straight to the educated youth point.

It was early morning, the air was filled with the faint fragrance of earth, and the birds' singing was clear and melodious.

Some of the educated youth were reading and studying, while others were tending to the vegetable fields. It was a peaceful scene.

When Shen Qiqi explained her purpose, Captain Zhao Zhiqing frowned and shook his head helplessly, "Qiqi, it's not that we don't want to help, it's just that our professional knowledge is limited. Most of us are high school graduates, and we only studied math, physics, and chemistry. We really don't know anything about fruit tree planting."

A feeling of depression spread among the educated youth, and the atmosphere of oppression gradually became stronger.

Shen Qiqi did not give up. She looked around and her eyes fell on Li Zhiqing who was drawing.

"Li Zhiqing, I see you're such a good painter. Could you help us draw some illustrations for fruit tree planting?" Li Zhiqing's eyes lit up: "I can give it a try!"

At the same time, the rumors in the village also reached Shen Qiqi's ears.

Aunt Wang led a group of villagers and found Village Chief Sun in an angry tone: "Village Chief, if these educated youth really help the Lu family, then won't all the fruit trees in our village be taken away by them?" Village Chief Sun was in a dilemma. On the one hand, there was pressure from the villagers, and on the other hand, there was the hope of developing new industries.

Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing looked at each other and made up their minds.

After returning home, Shen Qiqi frowned. Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes became firm: "Lu Qing, let's go find..."

Shen Qiqi leaned close to Lu Qing's ear mysteriously, her voice low but unable to conceal her excitement: "Lu Qing, let's go find my old friend in the city! Her dad is from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences!" Lu Qing's eyes widened when he heard this: "Really? This relationship is too strong!" Shen Qiqi raised her eyebrows proudly: "Of course! Let's go!"

The two rushed to the town's post office and sent an expedited telegram.

While waiting for a reply, Shen Qiqi felt like every day was a year. She counted the days on her fingers and even dreamed at night that the fruit trees were full of golden fruits.

Three days later, the postman rode his bicycle, the bell ringing throughout the village, and stopped at the door of the Lu family.

"Chen Qiqi, your package!" Shen Qiqi heard the shout and rushed out, took the package and opened it impatiently.

Inside was a thick pile of books and materials, and the big words "Fruit Tree Planting Technology" on the cover were particularly eye-catching.

Shen Qiqi jumped up excitedly, hugged Lu Qing, and kissed him hard on the face: "It's done! It's done! Now our fruit trees are saved!" The atmosphere of hope spread in the village like ripples.

The news spread throughout the village as quickly as if it had wings.

Aunt Wang and a group of villagers gathered at the door of the Lu family's house curiously, craning their necks to look inside.

Shen Qiqi did not give the information directly to the educated youth, but organized the villagers and the educated youth to study together.

She stood in the yard and greeted everyone enthusiastically: "Fellow villagers, fellow educated youth, for the great cause of our village's fruit trees, let us study together today!"

Shen Qiqi's positive attitude created an atmosphere of unity. People around her cast curious glances at her, and an atmosphere of surprise spread throughout the village.

She distributed the information to everyone, found a piece of wood as a blackboard, and began to explain the basic knowledge of fruit tree planting.

The villagers listened with great interest, and the educated youth also actively participated in the discussion, with everyone talking at once, and the atmosphere was very lively.

"I seem to have seen this grafting technique in a book somewhere..." Li Zhiqing said thoughtfully, holding his chin.

Li Zhiqing's words were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

The villagers' originally puzzled eyes suddenly lit up, as if they had grasped some key information.

Aunt Wang slapped her thigh and said, "Oh, I remember now! When I was young, I think I heard the older generation talk about this grafting thing!"

Now, the learning atmosphere is even more enthusiastic.

The villagers shared the folk methods they had heard, and the educated youth analyzed them from the perspective of theoretical knowledge. The combination of the two produced unexpected sparks.

Shen Qiqi watched this scene with satisfaction, a sense of pride welling up in her heart.

Who would have thought that the villagers and educated youth, who were originally at loggerheads with each other, could sit together and study in such harmony?

This feeling is sweeter than eating honey!

Lu Qing stood aside, looking at Shen Qiqi's glittering appearance, his eyes full of love and pride.

His wife is so awesome!

Shen Qiqi felt Lu Qing's gaze and turned to smile sweetly at him.

There is no need for many words between the two of them; a glance is enough to convey each other's feelings.

After a few days, the villagers had a preliminary understanding of fruit tree planting. The educated youth also drew inspiration from the villagers' experience and found the connection between theory and practice.

"Qiqi, I think we can try grafting some apple trees first and see the results." Captain Zhao Zhiqing suggested.

"Good idea!" Shen Qiqi nodded in agreement. "We can first select a few apple trees for the experiment. If it's successful, we can then expand it to other fruit trees."

The villagers expressed their support and were eager to give it a try.
