"Dad, what are you doing?" Fang Xiaoxia looked at Fang Zhiyi, who was still writing and drawing under the oil lamp with a coat draped over his shoulders, and couldn't help but feel curious.
Fang Zhiyi didn't turn his head. "Giving you a stepping stone."
"Huh?"
Fang Zhiyi let out a long breath. "Here, this is your tractor. The parts in this area can be replaced, and this part can be slightly modified, and here..." He pointed out seven or eight places in one breath.
Fang Xiaoxia looked at his drawings in shock. Her dad was actually this good at drawing?
"After these areas are improved, the failure rate will be much lower. In addition, some things can be replaced at a very low cost. Memorize this right now."
"Oh, okay." Fang Xiaoxia stopped asking questions and sat down, full of curiosity.
Wei Xiangyang was now feeling incredibly miserable. His good days had only lasted for one day before he was beaten back to his original state the next. Moreover, the educated youths who were previously in his group absolutely refused to have him, and other groups also rejected his joining. They even took the matter to Fang Zhiyi. Fang Zhiyi waved his hand and immediately labeled him as lacking enthusiasm, ordering him to go move stones and build dams. This decision made the educated youths clap their hands in joy. Fang Zhiyi's current image in their hearts was no less than that of Justice Bao.
After Zhang Qingqing was isolated, Fang Zhiyi no longer went to the livestock shed to talk to her, only doing a routine inspection every day. This sent a new signal to the other female educated youths. In particular, Zhou Qiaoyun began to mock and act passive-aggressively towards Zhang Qingqing without restraint, making Zhang Qingqing tremble with anger, but she was helpless.
These two were suffering—one from physical torment, the other from mental torment.
After being insulted by Zhou Qiaoyun, Zhang Qingqing could no longer maintain her previous image and angrily brawled with her. But how could she be a match for Zhou Qiaoyun? In just a short minute, she was pinned down by Zhou Qiaoyun, who grabbed her hair and slapped her face. Finally, two other female educated youths stopped Zhou Qiaoyun.
She sought out Fang Zhiyi for justice, but Fang Zhiyi had no time, so he sent the Women's Director. Although the Women's Director, Aunt Hu, held this title, she was not a meddlesome person on normal days. Like the other villagers, she had also heard a lot of gossip and had some understanding of Zhang Qingqing and Wei Xiangyang.
When she learned that Zhang Qingqing was the one who struck first, she immediately criticized Zhang Qingqing severely. When it was Zhou Qiaoyun's turn, although she also criticized her a bit, it was very light and inconsequential.
This made Zhang Qingqing very uncomfortable. Looking at Zhou Qiaoyun's smug appearance, her heart was filled with resentment.
Fang Zhiyi watched his daughter return home with a face full of smiles. He was listening to her talk about how she proposed the improvement suggestions to Technician Wang today, and Technician Wang's transformation from not caring to being shocked. Fang Zhiyi chuckled happily.
Little Hei leaned over. "The female lead is going all out, do you want to watch?"
"Huh?"
"In order to reconcile with Wei Xiangyang, the two of them are fooling around over at the livestock shed..."
Fang Zhiyi originally wanted to get up, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. "Let her be. This woman is quite scary; she can sacrifice anything to achieve her goals."
"Dad, the technician asked me how I thought of it, and I..."
"You didn't sell me out, did you?"
Fang Xiaoxia shook her head. "I followed what you taught me and said I figured it out myself. But Dad, this isn't good..."
"What's not good about it? I'm your dad. What's mine is yours, and what's yours is still yours." Fang Zhiyi said without hesitation.
"But..."
"No buts. Did you just say he reported this matter to his superiors?"
"Yes."
"Then time is pressing." Fang Zhiyi stood up. "Get some paper and a pen, I'll give you some tutoring."
"Tutoring again?" Fang Xiaoxia had a bit of a headache. Ever since she went to learn how to drive a tractor, her dad seemed to have turned into a teacher.
After their intimate moment, the resentment in Wei Xiangyang's heart had mostly dissipated. Looking at the delicate Zhang Qingqing, he couldn't help but smile.
In short, he had finally gotten what he wanted.
Zhang Qingqing nestled in his arms, her eyes full of calculation.
Zhou Qiaoyun, you are going to be in big trouble!
There was no special plotting. Wei Xiangyang accompanied her to find the old bachelor who usually spoke full of dirty jokes. The old bachelor's eyes lit up when he saw Zhang Qingqing, but he didn't dare to do anything because of the strong young man beside her.
However, hearing Zhang Qingqing say she was going to deliver a wife to him, the old bachelor was overjoyed.
The two agreed on a time, and only then did Zhang Qingqing leave.
She knew that she wouldn't be able to ask Zhou Qiaoyun out herself, but Wei Xiangyang was a different story. Although Zhou Qiaoyun hadn't shown any signs of liking Wei Xiangyang, they didn't have any conflicts either.
So Zhou Qiaoyun didn't overthink it when she received Wei Xiangyang's invitation. It just so happened that she also wanted to use this opportunity to properly insult Zhang Qingqing in front of Wei Xiangyang.
However, she waited by the small hillside at the end of the village for a long time. She didn't wait for Wei Xiangyang, but instead encountered the old bachelor from the village.
Zhou Qiaoyun was terrified. She struggled desperately to no avail. Just when she thought she was finished, the bright beam of a flashlight shone over.
This was immediately followed by the miserable screams of the old bachelor.
"Damn it, doing this kind of thing here! Beat him up!" Fang Zhiyi's voice rang out, and several educated youths rushed forward to beat him.
"Qiaoyun, are you okay?" The female educated youths who followed closely behind hurriedly covered Zhou Qiaoyun with clothes.
"I, I, you guys, why are you here..."
"The captain said he was taking us to the mountain to catch some kind of bug. Everyone thought they had nothing else to do, so we came, and it just so happened..."
Zhou Qiaoyun felt a wave of lingering fear in her heart.
Meanwhile, Wei Xiangyang, hiding in the dark, was dumbfounded. Zhang Qingqing suddenly gave him a push, and only then did Wei Xiangyang run out from the other side. "I'm late, Qiaoyun, what happened to you..."
The educated youths present all turned to look at him.
Wei Xiangyang's heart pounded nervously.
"It's all my fault. I fell on the way and delayed some time. What happened to you..." Wei Xiangyang's clumsy acting seemed a bit comical to Fang Zhiyi, but no one pursued the matter.
However, when the educated youths dragged the old bachelor over, Wei Xiangyang's body began to tremble slightly.
"Insulting women and damaging our village's reputation, I'm taking you to the police station right now! The crime of hooliganism is very serious!" Fang Zhiyi stared at the face that had been beaten slightly crooked.
The old bachelor was terrified.
"It wasn't me, it wasn't me, it was, it was him! It was him!"
Everyone followed his hand to look at Wei Xiangyang. Wei Xiangyang only felt a wave of goosebumps rise from the soles of his feet to the back of his head.
"It was him and that girl who said they would deliver a wife to me! They told me to do it!"
In the original plot, Zhang Qingqing's scheme was much more elaborate than this, and the old bachelor had succeeded, so naturally there was no scene of him coming out to testify. Of course, this also included many people protecting Zhang Qingqing, which led to that ending.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question.

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression.
