Chapter 739 A Dream of Youth 271
In Xie Ning's eyes, the club is not just an organization for entertainment. It is a place for learning and communication. The upper-level members do not have to worry about food and clothing. For them, the club may be more for entertainment.
But people from disadvantaged backgrounds can also form communities to help each other.
For farmers, planting, picking wild vegetables, raising livestock, etc. can all be exchanged. These skills are not simple. Some people can't do them well, while others can do them very well. Perhaps it is based on experience, but this experience is basically only passed on to family members or close relatives.
Perhaps a community could break down this barrier... It would be best if there were literate people in the community, who could compile their experiences into a book for others to study and read.
Just as the government might talk about intensive farming methods when encouraging agriculture, experienced farmers still have more expertise in the actual farming process. By combining these two approaches, productivity can be further improved.
Seeing that Xie Ning had started changing the paper, Qingxu whispered a reminder, "Miss, we've arrived at the Chen family's house."
Xie Ning blinked her sore eyes and responded softly. She planned to stay up late that night to write down the rest of her ideas. Although they were somewhat immature, she felt they were worth a try. However, she still needed to go back to her hometown to investigate further.
With the issue of the female school teacher resolved, Xie Ning took Xie Qi back to their hometown. They still had about a month of vacation left, but it would take them half a month to return to the capital, so they would have to leave in about fifteen days.
As soon as the two reached the village entrance, they saw several elderly people sitting under the apricot tree chatting. One of them was Li Shi. When she turned her head and saw Xie Ning and Xie Qi, her eyes lit up.
"Oh dear, Qi-ge'er, Ning-jie'er, where's A-Yun?"
The two were unsure of Li's intentions, and besides, wasn't Xie Yun in his hometown?
A panting voice came from behind; it was Liu Ya, holding a kite in her hand, clearly having just returned from playing outside.
Liu Ya also heard what Li Shi said and said, "Didn't Aunt Yun go to town to buy paper offerings? Didn't Great-Aunt know?"
Li didn't know that she had gone back to her parents' home early this morning, and after hearing some gossip, she rushed back.
"Never mind, since A-Yun isn't here, it's the same if I talk to my third sister-in-law." With that, she hurriedly grabbed the basket and ran home.
The three were completely confused, but they still followed behind, because they also wanted to know what had happened.
Unexpectedly, Madam Li pulled Grandmother Xie into the house, giving the three children no chance to eavesdrop.
Xie Qi stroked his chin, then led Xie Ning and Liu Ya to take a detour and hide under the window.
Inside, Madam Li was laughing incessantly, pulling at Grandmother Xie's arm. "Third sister-in-law, do you know who died?"
"who?"
"Guo Dayong!"
Grandmother Xie was in a daze for a moment; if Li hadn't mentioned it, she would have almost forgotten about this person.
"Isn't he in jail?"
"Yes, he was released last year. He was lucky to survive, but he didn't last long. He was gone less than two months after returning home."
"How did he die?"
Li snorted coldly, "The Guo family was ruined by Guo Dayong, and they lost all their land. Now that Guo Dayong is back, without his mother to protect them, they'll be tormented to death by his brothers."
Li picked up the teacup next to her, took a sip of water, and continued, "That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about our A-Yun. She's been married for so many years and hasn't had a child. It's not her fault at all. It's that Guo Dayong can't have children!"
The Guo family is quite adept at framing and slandering!
Grandma Xie was so angry her neck turned red. "They said they took Guo Dayong to see a doctor!"
However, "How did the elder sister-in-law know that Guo Dayong couldn't have children?"
“My niece married into the Li family next to Guojia Village. When Guo Dayong was dying, his father invited Li to see him. At that time, Ayun’s matter caused a big stir, and my niece knew about it.”
She cursed a few times in front of Dr. Li, and then Dr. Li said that the one who couldn't have children wasn't A-Yun.
It's Guo Dayong!
