But for Wan Qiqi, this was actually enough!
However, the house had been in disrepair for many years and no one lived there, so it looked somewhat dilapidated.
Some of the tall grasses have grown almost up to Wan Qiqi's waist!
It will take some manpower and resources to manage this.
All four were worldly people, so they treated visiting the house as a normal experience, even showing some disdain.
"Sister-in-law, it will probably take some time to clean this up and repair the roof tiles." Chen Yongliang pushed open the main room door and coughed for a while as he was choked by the dust that rushed in.
Fortunately, although the main room was all gray, the floor was not yet intact, and the roof did not leak, it looked better than the other rooms.
Wan Qiqi, fanning away the dust, strolled inside, looking around, and said, "Gousheng, have Uncle Xiang arrange for some people to come and clean the house. Pay them the wages they would receive outside."

"No, no... I just feel that even if you teach those women to read and write well, they will only be able to do those kinds of things in the future, which will not be of any real help to you."
Chen Yongliang is pragmatic and values profit more.
That's why Wan Qiqi felt that Chen Yongliang was suited to be a businessman and good at doing business.
“I don’t need them to help me. Their well-being is enough for me.”
The three men didn't understand Wan Qiqi's thoughts.
Spending so much money and effort just for this kind of satisfaction?
They didn't know that this was Wan Qiqi rebelling against feudal ideology.
If these people can benefit from learning, more women will be drawn to it, gradually changing the status of women.
This is a long-term issue.
