Seeing that Xue Xue'er had rejected him completely, the captain understood.

"I'm just here to ask. Those people all want an old mansion, but in our village, your old mansion is the only empty one, so they asked me to come."

The captain smiled awkwardly.

In fact, he knew Xue Xue'er wouldn't sell it, so he just came over to ask.

It was one thing to know that she wouldn't sell it. If he didn't ask, the villagers would definitely blame him.

Xue Xue'er also knew that the captain was in a difficult position. She smiled and did not say anything more.

Seeing that she wanted to continue tidying up the old house, the captain hurriedly asked her.

"Is it that you can't handle it by yourself? How about this, I will ask the young men in the village to come over and help you tidy up the old house."

"Thank you, then."

Xue Xue'er did not refuse and continued to tidy up the old house.

Not long after the captain left, Ouyang Qing'an came with the two little ones.

Grandma was very happy to see the two little ones. She looked at this and held onto that one. She was unwilling to let go.

After getting old, she liked these children.

"Let me help you."

Ouyang Qing'an came to Xue Xue'er's side and saw that she wanted to chop firewood, so he quickly stopped her.

"Don't move, let me do it."

"Okay."

Xue Xue'er handed the axe to him and went to the kitchen by herself. She watched Ouyang Qing'an start the fire and cleaned the rice. Then, she went into the pot and started to boil the rice soup.

Grandma was old. If she ate that kind of rice, her teeth would not feel comfortable. It was better to boil it until it was soft and rotten.

Seeing Xue Xue'er and Ouyang Qing'an busy, Grandma gently rubbed her eyes.

After eating, Xue Xue'er brought Ouyang Qing'an back home.

"I have to go find the village chief."

She said to Ouyang Qing'an, "If we want to build a high school, we need to get the support of the village chief. Otherwise, we can't build it by ourselves."

Even if she invited all the people here and gave them money, if the village did not split the land, the children would not know. The village chief was against it, so it was impossible for them to study.

At least the village chief had to help.

Ouyang Qing'an knew what Xue Xue'er was thinking and did not say anything. He let her go.

Xue Xue'er went to the village chief's house.

The village chief was eating dinner when he saw her coming. He hurriedly pulled a chair for her and warmly let her sit down.

"Xue'er, do you want some food? We are having stewed chicken at home tonight. You can take a few bites with us. Although it is not a good thing, you have never eaten feed. It is home-raised chicken. Don't worry."

The village chief enthusiastically wanted to get chopsticks and bowls for Xue Xue'er.

Xue Xue'er waved her hands repeatedly to stop him from being busy.1

"Don't, village chief. I just came here to take a look. There is another matter that I want to discuss with you. It is to establish a middle school."

Xue Xue'er explained her intentions.

It was inconvenient for the children in the village to go to school, and the parents did not discipline them. The teachers were not strong enough. Even if they were to follow the economic development and earn a few more money, they would still be poor and uncultured in the end.

She had to improve this matter.

Seeing Xue Xue'er open her mouth, the village chief thought for a while and smiled as he rubbed his hands.

"If you want to build a high school, I will definitely agree, but... I have a request."

"Village chief, don't be polite, just say it."

Xue Xue'er's reply was very straightforward. The chief took a deep breath and voiced out his thoughts.

"Actually, I just wanted to see if you could help solve the problem of the tap water and electricity. As long as I can connect the tap water and electricity, the children in our village will definitely be able to live a good life."

Xue Xue'er was stunned.

The tap water and electricity?

These two things sounded like the most basic, but if they really wanted to power the village with electricity and water, the cost would probably be quite high. It would far exceed her budget.

And the middle school would also have to be built up.

It was a little difficult.

Seeing that Xue Xue'er was silent, the village chief was also a little anxious.

"Xue'er, I'm just saying. If you can cook, then do it. If you can't, then don't force yourself. Then, come, eat some chicken."

The village chief's expression was somewhat fearful. Xue Xue'er knew that she could not say anything and could only let out a sigh of relief.

"I will eat. Don't give in. That will be too polite."

"That's good."

The village chief gently rubbed his hands and gave Xue Xue'er some chicken again.

After Xue Xue'er ate it, he finally felt relieved.
