"Third, it's okay to not reconcile. You have to sign a guarantee not to abuse Zhang and the five children in the future."

"If you dare to take action again and make peace with the Zhang family, the children, house, and fields will all belong to the Zhang family, and you mother and son will be expelled from Hegou Village."

The reason why Lin Shuangshuang gave the third option was that she knew that divorce in this era was not as easy as she thought.

If you report to the official, you will not be given a harsh sentence for beating your husband.

It is still difficult to reconcile without the help of your parents.

Those thatched huts are fine to live in in the summer, but life-threatening to live in them in the winter.

Moreover, even if the Li family's mother and son are imprisoned, the Li family's house and fields will still be watched by the Li family and will not fall into the hands of the Zhang family.

There are many more problems like this, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many women who would never think about divorce until they were forced to death.

"Third, I choose third." Li Jinyin chose third without hesitation.

"I promise not to beat her again. If I do it again, I will voluntarily be evicted from Hegou Village. The children's house will belong to the Zhang family, and other brothers and sisters cannot fight for it."

In fact, when Lin Shuangshuang mentioned the ownership rights of the house and fields in the third article, Zhang knew that divorce was not as easy as she said.

It seemed that she was delusional after all. After all, she was not as lucky as Gu Xinghua, and without the support of the Face family, it was really difficult for her to survive with five women.

“What you say is unfounded, but what you say is evidence.”

Lin Shuangshuang asked someone to bring a pen and paper and write a letter of guarantee. Everyone looked at her beautiful handwriting and admired her even more.

How about saying that someone has the ability to be an official? Look at the writing. It looks better than those written by scholars.

"Village Chief, could you please read it in public?"

The village chief also knows how to read and write, but if he can't study and do knowledge, there is still no problem in reading a guarantee letter.

After the village chief finished reading it, the Li family's mother and son signed and stamped it.

Everyone thought that the matter was settled, but Lin Shuangshuang said that the matter of Heli was settled, and now let's talk about the beating.

She will not let the mother and son go easily, and it is also a warning to other people who like domestic violence.

In this way, Mrs. Jin was slapped twenty times in public, and Li Jinyin was whipped a hundred times in public.

The whole village was filled with the screams of the Li family's mother and son, as if they were killing pigs. All the women in the village clapped their hands and applauded, while the men were still frightened.

"This Lin is really a good official. Today he vented his anger on us women."

"Yes, it is better for women to be officials. Only when women are officials can we women have a way out."

"Let me tell you, we women are bullied so miserably because we have no rights. If the number of women and men serving as officials is the same, who would dare to bully women?"

"Who says it's not the case? I really hope that our Yu Dynasty will have a few more good female officials like Lin."

"No, I have to send my two girls to study. Studying is a skill."

"Who said it's useless for women to study? It's because we women have never studied, that's why we have been bullied by men."

"Look at how talented Lin is, who dares to bully her?"

The villagers were talking a lot. Some families with relatively good family conditions planned to choose a smart girl from their family to study.

"I can't send all four girls to study. We can't afford it."

"I don't know how to choose. Who knows who is good at studying?"

"Why don't we go find Lin Shuang and ask her to help pick them out? She's so good, she can definitely pick them out at a glance."

"Okay, let's put it together and bring the gifts to Gu's house another day."

"Okay, count me in."

As for Lin Shuangshuang, she didn't know that after this incident, there was a trend of women reading in Hegou Village.

At this time, she had already been taken home by Yang to rest.

The next day, the village chief and several highly respected village chiefs in the clan took the initiative to go to Gu's house.

They were all thinking about teaching the villagers to collect herbs to make money. This was a major matter related to the people's livelihood and they had to take it seriously.

Originally, this matter should have been discussed yesterday, but Lin Shuangshuang was too tired from rescuing people yesterday, so they couldn't disturb him.

So the village chief brought people here early this morning, which saved Lin Shuangshuang from making a trip.

After all, she is a pregnant woman, so take care of her as much as you can. She is the lucky star and God of Wealth of their Hegou Village.

Lin Shuangshuang knew their purpose, so she asked Dong'er to make a few bowls of brown sugar water.

"The village chief and uncles are here about the herbal medicine, right?"

The village chief rubbed his hands and smiled sheepishly.

"Yesterday you taught the villagers how to pick herbs, which is a great thing. I think if you can do it, life in our village will be better."

"It's really inappropriate to bother me this early in the morning."

"..."

The corners of Lin Shuangshuang's mouth twitched. They should have already arrived, so don't say these polite words.

But she was just complaining in her heart that the other party was an elder after all.

"Uncle, don't be polite, let's get down to business."

"Yes, yes, let's get down to business."

"How do you want to teach? Are there any regulations? Anyone is qualified to learn, or do you choose people?"

"Should we go to the mountains to go to school, or should we find a place to serve as a school like children study?"

"The most important question is, can the herb be sold after being picked?"

"Did the villagers take it out for retail sale, or did the village collect it and sell it collectively?"

"Is there a regular seller? Do you sell directly to the drug store or set up a stall in the market?"

"Oh, by the way, I also heard that medicinal materials must be processed before they can be sold. Do you want to teach everyone how to prepare medicinal materials? Is this easy to learn?"

The village chief asked many questions, and Lin Shuangshuang answered them one by one.

"This is what I think. Every family should send one person to learn, preferably a woman. After making money, they will probably pay it to the public and keep two pieces for themselves as private money."

"The reason why I did this is also what happened to the Li family yesterday."

"If a woman can make money, she will have more confidence to live in her husband's family."

"Otherwise, we will all be bullied to death like Mr. Zhang."

"Those who are willing to learn and are willing to sign a pledge can each pay one hundred coins to save their lives."

"This hundred yuan is not for my teaching. My medical skills are not so worthless."

"The money will be used to buy medicinal herbs. After all, I just said that they don't know them. It's more intuitive to hold samples."

"Originally, I could take everyone up the mountain to collect some and then teach them."

"But now I'm too heavy to go up the mountain."

The village chief nodded and said that what Lin Shuangshuang said made sense, but he also felt that there were other solutions.

"See if you can get some of the various weeds from the mountains."

"Then you pick which ones are herbs and which ones are weeds."

"This will not only save the villagers money, but also leave you with a good reputation."

"Although one hundred coins is not much, it will make a big difference to your reputation if it is paid or free."
