After the frail beauty went to the countryside, she went crazy with scientific research.

Chapter 313, Episode 338: On the Train (Part 3)
Yang Wenjie was very smart; he could learn anything quickly and easily. Compared to his daughter, who couldn't learn no matter how he was taught, Bai's father began to value him as his son-in-law.

Teach him medicine.

As fate would have it, an accident happened just like that. Two years ago, a month before the wave of educated youth returning to the city arrived, Bai's father was on his way back to the village after rescuing someone in the neighboring village when a loose rock on the hillside slid down and happened to hit him as he was passing by.

“When the notice came from above that the educated youth could return to the city, we were all worried that the guy would be like some of the educated youth in the next village, and would get a divorce and then run away with his wife and children.”

Bai Erban spoke more and more fluently, and became increasingly angry. What he said must have touched a nerve with Bai Sanni, who was squatting there holding her child, crying silently, with occasional sobs.

“At that time, Yang Wenjie said that Uncle Bai saved his life, Sanni was his wife, and the two children were his own son and daughter. He would never forget his kindness and would never abandon his wife and children.”

Compared to the educated youth from the neighboring village, Yang Wenjie's statement earned him even more praise from the village.

Yang Wenjie did indeed achieve that, before that.

As the educated youth left in batches, he not only remained unmoved, but also worked diligently to take over as the village doctor in place of Bai's father.

As the wave of educated youth returning to the city gradually subsided, the villagers felt reassured that he would never leave again.

Hearing this, Lin Yuexi blinked. It seemed that the villagers didn't really trust this 'Yang Wenjie' completely. There were probably some people who were grateful to Bai's father and were keeping an eye on him.

“Two days ago, my older brother, who works as an official in the town, suddenly ran back and told us that a friend of his who works at the train station told him that Yang Wenjie might be running away and that the train tickets had already been bought.”

Yang Wenjie told Bai Sanni that he was going to town to treat a patient whose family had some connections. If the patient was cured, the family might not benefit, but if the patient was not cured, they would definitely be retaliated against. So he had to keep an eye on things and wouldn't be able to return for at least two or three days.

Bai Sanni is just an ordinary country girl, not very bright, and not very knowledgeable. When her father was alive, she listened to him, but now that he's gone, she listens to her husband.

They quickly packed Yang Wenjie's luggage and personally escorted him to the village entrance.

She didn't check the house much when she got back, because she never imagined that her husband would abandon her and their children.

It was only after Bai Erbao learned from his elder brother that Yang Wenjie had already bought his train ticket that he suspected that Yang was trying to run away like the other educated youth. He reminded Bai Sanni to check the house to see if any valuables were still there.

At this point, Bai Sanni was completely stunned. She listened to everything Bai Erbao said, and then she discovered that not only were all the money and tickets in the house gone, but her father's savings book was also gone, as well as a medical notebook left by her father.

Bai Sanni sniffed, mustered her courage, and grabbed Ding Wen's trouser leg. "If he wants to leave, I won't stop him. My dad told me that if a man's heart isn't with you, forcing him to stay will only make life harder. I'm strong, I can support my children. I just want to find him and make him return my dad's things to me."

Having already understood what had happened, the old lady slapped her thigh angrily, "This person was probably after your father's... hand."

"Sounds like it."

Some people agree with this view, while others disagree, saying, "I think they're just after their money."

It's not hard to tell from what this person named Bai Erbao said that Bai Sanni's family is quite well-off in the village. Doesn't Dr. Bai even have a savings account? Rural people like to keep their money at home. If it's not five hundred or a thousand, who would put it in the bank?

Besides, Dr. Bai's family only has one daughter!
That fake 'Yang Wenjie' probably wanted to live off the Bai family after learning about their situation, or even exploit them for their own benefit.

It's highly likely that all the valuables in the family were previously in Bai's father's possession. After his death, coinciding with the wave of educated youth returning to the cities, Bai Sanni might have worried that 'Yang Wenjie' would also abandon his wife and children and take control of everything Bai's father had left behind. 'Yang Wenjie' spent so much time gaining Bai Sanni's complete trust, taking all of Bai's father's things, and then turned around and prepared to run away. After all, even his name was fake, so he wasn't afraid that Bai Sanni would find him.

Damn, what kind of scum is this?

Not only did he abandon his wife and children, he also stole the inheritance left to his wife and children by his father-in-law.

How is this any different from taking the lives of his wife and children?
Ding Wen was very calm. He could tell everyone with the air of someone who had seen it all, that he had seen all kinds of scum since the educated youth began to return to the city.

On the train, he boasted smugly about how he had charmed his simple-minded country wife and seduced a young widow in the village. When he left, they were all reluctant to part with him, giving him money and food. Have you ever seen a person like this?

Ding Wen had met them, and not just one or two.

Having seen so much, he was gradually trained to be a man of few words and no emotions. Now, even if someone performs a live home run on a train, he can read an advertisement in a standard announcer's voice without any expression.

“I know you’re in a hurry, but don’t worry, listen to me. If the person is on this train, which has just departed and won’t arrive at the next station for another half hour, he can’t escape.”

Ding Wen, somewhat self-satisfied, took out a walkie-talkie from his pocket. Under the curious gazes of the crowd, he moved something and then shouted into the walkie-talkie, "01, 01, this is 07, please respond if you hear me, please respond if you hear me."

Lin Yuexi: "..."

She felt like she was on a completely different channel.

Xu Shan suppressed a laugh and continued to act as the commentator: "Sir, do you still remember the technology company that was opened in your name? After your chip research was successful, the company manufactured many things, including that walkie-talkie."

After successfully developing the chip, Lin Yuexi created her own mobile phone. Inspired by her, everyone started to think outside the box, trying to make what was available abroad and even thinking about what wasn't.

This walkie-talkie was made by a few recent college graduates.

Who says we don't have talented people?
Look, it's just that the technology is blocked. Once someone brings out the knowledge, our country has no shortage of people who love to use their brains.

Seeing the proud look on the train police officer's face as he shouted into the walkie-talkie, Lin Yuexi felt both gratified and heartbroken.

After he finished speaking, the people in the carriage had almost completely surrounded him, asking him all sorts of questions about what it was.
They know about telephones, but those require a wire. What is this that doesn't require a wire? How can it make a call without a wire?
Is there anywhere I can buy it?
Is it expensive?

"You can't buy this outside. It was specially designed for military and police use. Don't get too close and damage public property."

Lin Yuexi smiled.

She used to wonder why, even though she herself was sometimes conflicted—she didn't feel like she belonged to this world, and she didn't feel a strong sense of belonging—she was still willing to dedicate herself to science and technology, leading the technological advancement of a country that was being bullied because it lagged behind in other countries.

Don't tell me she has family here who are good to her; kids who have experienced the apocalypse are all hard-hearted.

Seeing this scene, she understood. She liked the warmth of everyday life, and she wanted to preserve the proud yet simple smile on the train police officer's face.
