Xia Baolin thought that more than half of the villagers were illiterate, and couldn't help but worry about Mingyue. It would probably be difficult for those people to understand. "Comrade Mingyue, you've worked hard."
"It's not hard work. I love educating others."
Mingyue saw through Xia Baolin's thoughts at a glance, but it didn't matter. There was nothing she couldn't teach, only things she didn't want to teach.
In less than a day, the village chief efficiently set up a platform and began making announcements at the broadcasting station.
Mingyue continued eating the snacks Xia Baolin fed her, her bright eyes looking at Xia Baolin, "Why don't you come and lend me a hand?"
“Me?” Xia Baolin waved her hand in surprise. “I don’t understand these things.”
If she had understood, she wouldn't have been speechless when she fell into the water, but she would definitely have gone back to attend the class.
"It's alright, everyone in the village knows you, right?"
Xia Baolin hesitated before nodding. She had been in the countryside for a year and had gotten to know everyone she needed to.
"Okay, tell me if anyone misbehaves."
Mingyue's smile was exceptionally kind, and Xia Baolin didn't see anything wrong with it, so she smiled and agreed as well.
Since everyone is busy working during the day, this opportunity was specifically chosen to take place in the evening.
Many people came, most of them curious and just wanted to join in the fun. The village chief, holding a megaphone, cleared his throat and spoke earnestly.
"Fellow villagers, the incident of Xia, a educated youth, falling into the water last time revealed that our village is full of illiterate people! Their words are no different from those of hooligans!"
The village chief didn't mince words, leaving everyone present blushing. Someone couldn't help but retort, "Village chief, you can't say that. Didn't everyone handle things the same way before?"
"So that was in the past! We live in a new society now. To avoid this kind of incident from happening again, our village specially invited Comrade Mingyue to give us some knowledge."
The village chief, beaming, beckoned Mingyue to the stage. "This is Comrade Mingyue. From now on, at least two people from each household must attend every Saturday!"
Some villagers were unhappy when they heard that the police would have to come every week. They thought that as long as they didn't steal or rob, why would the police bother with their business?
The village chief is such a senile old fool, wasting their rest time.
Mingyue calmly took the loudspeaker, and Xia Zhiqing stood beside her, quietly introducing the villagers who were about to leave to Mingyue.
"Wang Dahai is a ruthless man who often borrows money under the guise of borrowing and then doesn't repay it."
"Wang Dahua is a notorious gossip in the village. No matter what happens, what she says always means something else. I've heard that the rumors she spreads have harmed a lot of people."
Xia Baolin spoke of this person with eyes full of disgust. It was fortunate that this person wasn't around when she fell into the water, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to explain herself at all.
"And that one..."
The village chief tried his best to stop the villagers from leaving, but just as he was about to give up, Mingyue spoke up.
"Wang Dayong, Wang Sancheng, Wang..." Several villagers with the surname Wang were mentioned in succession.
The person whose name was called out was confused and stood there scratching their head.
Mingyue smiled, "Does Wang Dahai owe you money and isn't paying it back?"
Yes, yes.
Wang Dayong muttered to himself, regretting that he couldn't beat Wang Dahai, otherwise he would have gotten the money back.
Wang Dahai laughed quite wildly when he heard Wang Dayong's words; once the money was in his hands, he had no chance of getting it back.
“If someone owes money and refuses to pay, you can go to the police or apply to the court. If Comrade Wang Dahai still refuses to pay, coercive measures will be taken against him.”
Mingyue smiled as she looked at the villagers who had come to stay, saying, "If you have money, pay it back; if you don't, pledge something of equal value."
