"Lu Qing, I have a good idea!" Shen Qiqi grabbed Lu Qing's hand, her cheeks flushed with excitement, her eyes shining like stars in the sky, "We can expand the sales channels for the crops we reclaimed from the mountains and forests, and let the women in the village participate!"

She turned around excitedly, as if she had already seen a beautiful vision of the future: women would no longer be trapped in household chores, they would also be able to have their own careers, earn income and realize their self-worth!

This is not only financial independence, but also spiritual liberation!

Lu Qing looked at her high spirits, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, his eyes full of pampering and trust.

He knew that as long as Qiqi wanted to do something, she would be able to do it well.

He patted the back of her hand gently, giving her silent support.

Shen Qiqi couldn't wait to run to the village activity center and call everyone to a meeting.

She stood on the stage, her eyes sparkling, her voice clear and powerful: "Fellow villagers, I have a proposal that will make everyone's life better!"

She explained in detail the idea of ​​expanding crop sales channels and involving women in sales work.

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience exploded.

"How can this be? Women should stay at home to take care of their husbands and children. How can they show themselves in public!" Wang, the male villager representative, was the first to jump out and object. His face flushed and saliva flew everywhere, as if Shen Qiqi had committed some heinous crime.

Shen Qiqi was not afraid at all, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Uncle Wang, the times are progressing, and women can also hold up half the sky! Letting women participate in sales work can not only increase family income, but also improve their social status. This is a win-win situation!"

She looked around and said firmly, "I know that many people still cling to old ideas, but I believe that one day everyone will understand that women can also make great contributions to society!"

Wang, the male villager representative, wanted to refute, but was interrupted by Shen Qiqi: "Uncle Wang, don't rush to object, I haven't finished yet..."

Shen Qiqi was well prepared. She cleared her throat and took out a stack of papers from the sack behind her. The papers were densely written with words.

She held the paper high so everyone could see it clearly. "Fellow villagers, this is a comparison of the family incomes of women from the neighboring village who became involved in sales work. Not only did they earn money, they also bought new clothes, improved their meals, and even had extra money to send their children to school!"

There was an uproar in the audience, and many people were talking to each other, obviously shocked by the data.

Wang, the male village representative, looked even uglier, as if he had swallowed a fly. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something in rebuttal, but found that he could not find any excuse at all. He could only stare with his eyes, furious, like a defeated rooster.

Seeing this, Shen Qiqi raised the corners of her mouth slightly. Who doesn't have data these days?

She just wants to use facts to slap those old stubborn people in the face!

She put down the documents in her hand and said firmly, "Facts speak louder than words! Do you still think that letting women work in sales is a waste of time?"

The women looked at each other, and the hesitation on their faces gradually disappeared, replaced by excitement and anticipation.

They hadn't been valued like this for a long time. Shen Qiqi's words were like a bright light, illuminating their dim lives.

"I support Qiqi!" A slightly younger woman shouted first, her voice trembling a little, but full of strength.

"Yes, I support it too!" "Me too!" More and more women stood up, and their voices combined together, like a powerful force that was unstoppable.

Seeing this scene, the blood drained away from the face of Wang, the male villager representative. He sat dejectedly on the chair. He used to look so aggressive, but now he looked like a deflated ball. The frustration overwhelmed him like a tide.

Lu Qing has been standing behind Shen Qiqi, supporting her silently.

Seeing her so dazzling, his heart was filled with pride and honor.

He knew that his Qiqi was born to be a nobody!

He nodded firmly at Shen Qiqi, his eyes so gentle that they could squeeze water out of them.

Shen Qiqi felt Lu Qing's support and turned to give him a grateful smile, which was as bright as a blooming summer flower.

Their eyes met, and a warm atmosphere spread between them, as if everything around them was eclipsed.

Ms. Liu in the crowd looked at their sweet interaction and felt a little envious.

She looked down at her rough hands, a longing rising in her heart. Perhaps, like Shen Qiqi, she could also have her own piece of sky?

"Ahem," Village Chief Sun cleared his throat, breaking the slightly awkward atmosphere. "Qiqi, your idea is good, but if these women want to participate in sales work, I'm afraid they still need some... training? They also need qualifications and so on..."

Village Chief Sun's words seemed to show concern, but they actually contained hidden meanings.

He had a stern face, frowned, and an expression that said, "This is not easy to do," as if Shen Qiqi's suggestion was so fantastical.

"Training? Qualifications?" Shen Qiqi raised her eyebrows and sneered in her heart. This old fox wants to make trouble again!

"Village Chief Sun, what are you talking about? What kind of training qualifications are needed to sell fruits and vegetables? Are you sending them to take the civil service exam?" Shen Qiqi's tone was full of sarcasm, and the women around her also laughed.

Village Chief Sun's face flushed after being confronted by Shen Qiqi, and he stammered, "This...this process still needs to be followed! If anything goes wrong, who will be held responsible?"
