Coincidentally, someone in Baishi Village just had a quarrel.

Lu Songli and others inquired about it, and found out that it was actually a trivial matter. The two ladies were bickering, exposing each other's shortcomings, and quarreling with each other, and then slowly they got really angry and started fighting.

Men from both sides also came out. If someone hadn't stopped it in time, it would have turned into a fight between two families, or even two big families.

The person who stopped this development was the person they wanted to investigate this time - Aunt Wang.

After listening to the whole story, Lu Songli and Lu Wei found that Mrs. Wang was indeed quite qualified to be a female officer.

Among them, Chen Haifeng is a local expert and is particularly familiar with the villages in this area.

Lu Songli and his party were led by him and went to the village chief's house first.

When they arrived, the village chief rushed back from outside.

"Village Chief Wen!"

When the village chief saw Chen Haifeng, he was cordial and respectful, "Here comes Director Chen? Who are these?"

"They are all my colleagues." Chen Haifeng said vaguely.

Village Chief Wen nodded and didn't dare to ask anything else.After hearing Chen Haifeng's intention, he took them to Aunt Wang's house.

The village chief's wife came out to see him off. After sending the person away, the village chief's daughter-in-law curiously asked her mother-in-law, "Mom, are there any female officials in the group just now?"

The village chief's wife nodded and said, "Probably."

The village chief's daughter-in-law was surprised. Their Pingzhou had changed a lot in the past two years. Before, they had only heard that there were female workers who could work in workshops and earn a monthly salary, and some even became female stewards.Now the person in charge of their affairs in Pingzhou is a woman, and now there is a female officer in the yamen?

Although she didn't know Lu Songli's identity, it didn't stop her from being surprised.

"I don't know why they went to see Aunt Wang?"

"We'll find out when your father-in-law comes back."

The group of them walked towards Mrs. Wang's house.

Along the way, the road was clean and someone had obviously cleaned it.

Chen Haifeng asked about this matter at Master Lu's signal.

Village Chief Wen stopped and said, "Hey, what's this? Pingzhou Yamen has arranged for people to clean the official roads outside regularly. In the village, we also take turns to sweep, at least to clear the road. No, where are you going? Isn’t it convenient?”

The matter of Village Chief Wen seemed not worth mentioning.

Lu Songli and the others were quite silent when they heard this. After the government office took the lead, the people consciously took care of the rest.

Next, Chen Haifeng chatted with Village Chief Wen about the situation in Baishi Village, and then asked him if there was anything difficult to do in the village.

Upon hearing this, Village Chief Wen glanced at Lu Songli, Lu Wei and the others again, hesitating whether to say anything.

"If you have any difficulty, just tell me."

"The villagers want to send their children to study, but the nearest private school is still too far away from our Baishi Village. We want to raise money to build one ourselves, but it is not enough. We discussed with two nearby villages and the three villages jointly contributed funds. That's okay. I am the master of this private school. I hope the government can help." What Village Chief Wen did not dare to say was that it would be great if the government could provide some support for the establishment of a private school.But after thinking about it, he felt that it was more important to find a good wife.If the government feels that the demands made by Baishi Village are too many and rejects one or two, then the gains outweigh the losses.

Lu Songli said in her heart, the village chief of Baishi Village has quite an idea.

"Village Chief Wen, your consciousness is quite high." Lu Songli said with a smile.

"What the hell, Director Lu is overly commendable." Village Chief Wen learned from their conversation just now that the surname in front of him was Lu. When he heard this surname and thought of the person who was now in charge of Pingzhou, he murmured in his heart. But I don’t think it’s such a coincidence, right?

"It's not that my little old man is very enlightened, but that in Pingzhou, illiterate children are at a huge disadvantage."

Young people go out to find work. Better jobs require literacy. The wages for such work are relatively high.

"Village Chief Wen, the Pingzhou government is already thinking of solutions to the problems you are worried about. Soon, the government will build a number of schools to make it easier for children to study."

When Village Chief Wen heard this, his eyes lit up, "This is good, this is good. When will the construction start? Is it available in every village?"

"How can we build it in every village? We can only build one between three or four villages." Lu Songli said with a smile.

Village Chief Wen, a little old man, smacked his lips and said, "This is not bad."

"In addition to schools, health centers will also be built, but health centers will be slower."

After Village Chief Wen understood what a health center was, he was extremely satisfied with the arrangements of the Pingzhou government office.Once the health center is built, it will be much more convenient for their people to see a doctor.

Lu Songli told him, "It takes time to train doctors. We currently have too few doctors in Pingzhou."

"But before these, literacy classes will be opened first."

Village Chief Wen was surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that many people in the village who were illiterate would have the opportunity to read and write?

Little by little, Lu Songli informed the old village chief about what the Pingzhou government would do next.

The first thing is to build the village committee team.This is the foundation. After it is completed, we can start to set up literacy classes, schools, and health centers...

Village Chief Wen quickly said that he would definitely cooperate with them.

"Director Lu, no, Mr. Lu, are you the best of Director Chen? You don't have to deny it, the little old man can see it." Village Chief Wen said proudly.

Lu Songli was amused, "That's right."

On the way, when mentioning Aunt Wang, Village Chief Wen also affirmed Aunt Wang.

"She is less selfish and fair in her comments and judgments. All the ladies and young men in the village admire her. I think it will work if she can be a female official."

Wang's family

Aunt Wang and her daughter were busy pressing oil in the kitchen, and at the same time they were discussing the matter of breaking up the fight just now.

"Mom, you are so powerful. If you hadn't persuaded Aunt Wei and Aunt Liu, these two people would have fought."

"Hey, your mother only has some persuasive skills, so she doesn't deserve such praise."

"The key is that others are willing to listen to your advice."

Aunt Wang didn't hide her secrets and said to her daughter, "This is a skill. To break up a fight, you have to understand the reason why they are quarreling. The most important thing is not to be biased. You can't just talk about the faults of one party, and when criticizing others, you have to The matter of fact means that you can criticize her for something wrong, but you cannot deny her character. For example, you cannot say that she has an extreme temper and has bad moral character."

After Lu Songli, Lu Wei and others went to Mrs. Wang's house and knocked on the door, Mr. Wang was weaving baskets in the main room. When he heard the door ringing, he went to open the door.

After they entered the yard, they happened to hear the conversation between Aunt Wang and her daughter.

Master Duan Shui, Lu Songli said in her heart.

Others also nodded secretly. After hearing this, this Aunt Wang was indeed very good at handling neighborhood disputes.

Uncle Wang saw the village chief bringing so many people, and they all looked different from ordinary people, so he asked a little awkwardly, "Village Chief, what's the matter?"

Village Chief Wen: "Go to the main room and talk."

Uncle Wang quickly invited people into the house.

"We are here to find the guy from your house, please call him over."

Uncle Wang was extremely worried. He murmured and did not move.

Village Chief Wen urged him, "Go quickly, it's a good thing."

At this time, Lu Wei smiled and said, "The oil is probably being refined in the kitchen, look at the fragrance filling the room."

Lu Songli also nodded, "It seems that the common people are living a pretty good life."

Village Chief Wen added, "The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and everyone will try their best to cook something delicious at the end of the New Year. The past two years have been good, and everyone is willing to buy some meat during the Chinese New Year."

At this time Aunt Wang came in a little cautiously.

Village Chief Wen quickly called her in.

"My lords, do you have any business with me?"

"Don't be nervous, Aunt Wang. We are looking for you because we have something to tell you..."

Aunt Wang never expected that because she was good at mediating neighborhood disputes, she would be appreciated by the Pingzhou government officials and promoted her to be a women's officer.

Although there is no salary, some rice, flour, grain and oil benefits will be provided during the New Year and holidays.
