The host is no longer a human today.

"Huh~ I'm finally done with the painting." Shen Zuixue let out a long sigh and looked up from the desk. The sun had already started to set outside the window.

He has been working on the design since he came back from the fields today, and it is finally finished.

He was drawing a design for a waterwheel. The weather in Guangping Brigade was getting hotter these days and it hadn't rained. I still remember that the crop seedlings were wilting and the villagers were all frowning.

However, Shen Zuixue knew that the situation now was not the worst. There would be a severe drought this year and the grain harvest would drop even more significantly next year.

Although making water wheels is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution, it can at least provide some relief.

There was no way. There was no technology in the system, only food and some daily necessities, and these all cost merit points. He didn't care, but other people were ordinary people, and they still had to rely on real production.

"Oh no! Shen Zhiqing! Shen Zhiqing! Aunt Qiu!" He An rushed into the Shen family while shouting.

"What's wrong, Xiao An? Why are you so anxious?" Qiu Yi hurriedly stopped He An.

"Aunt Qiu, Shen the educated youth, it's Brother Yan. Brother Yan rescued a female educated youth from the river today. But in public, the female educated youth threatened to commit suicide in order for Yan Changsui to marry her!" He An barely took a breath as he quickly explained the whole story.

"Shen Zhiqing, Aunt Qiu, please go and save Brother Yan!" He An couldn't help but urge them when he thought of Brother Yan's expression just now.

To be precise, he was urging Shen Zuixue. It looked like his brother Yan was going to take action against that female educated youth. If he really did that, something serious would happen!

"Okay, I'll go right away!" Shen Zuixue took the lead and ran towards the river in the village.

As for the identity of the female educated youth, he felt that it was most likely Tang Qi!

"Comrade Yan, so many people watched you jump into the water to save me. I know I shouldn't force you to marry me, but I'm too embarrassed to see anyone. You should just let me fend for myself!"

Tang Qi was stopped by a group of people and cried and said he wanted to jump into the river.

As soon as the words of moral blackmail came out, Yan Changsui's face became even uglier, and everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

"In fact, although Tang Zhiqing's idea is a bit extreme, it is understandable..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you still a member of the Guangping Brigade? Why are you so ungrateful?"

The person next to him interrupted his confusion and said, "She has a lot of bad personality. We watched Yan grow up. Are you willing to let him marry such a troublemaker?"

Tang Qi didn't hear their discussions. She just stood there with tears in her eyes. She didn't seem to be aggressive, but in fact she was putting Yan Changsui on the spot.

No matter how the people of Guangping Brigade supported Yan Changsui, some people still felt sympathy for Tang Qi when she cried, "I can't live if you don't marry me."

This world always has more sympathy for the "weak", and there is never a shortage of people who stand on their own side and are generous to others.

"Tang Zhiqing, I didn't expect you to be such a person."

A clear voice came from behind the crowd. Everyone turned around subconsciously and saw Shen Zuixue walking to the front and looking at Tang Qi with disappointment.

"What kind of person am I? Shen Zhiqing, I know you don't like me, but I'm just a weak woman. Now I'm being hugged by another man in public. Can't I be sad?"

Tang Qi's tearful look made many people hesitate.

"What Tang Zhiqing said makes sense! After all, she is still a virgin... How about that, Captain, Sister Qiu, you should let Yan take charge?"

Yan Hongren and Qiu Yi also looked unhappy. It was obvious that Tang Qi was not a person who would keep quiet. This matter might have been deliberately designed by her!

But Tang Qi threatened to commit suicide, and they couldn't think of a way to escape for the time being.
