Chapter 5 Embroidery expert
After dinner, we were taken back to the row of cells in the northeast corner by another female jailer, and all the prisoners lined up, a dozen or twenty people, standing in front of their respective cells, and I followed Wu Ying, and after the jailer signaled that they could enter the house, the prisoners went back to their rooms to sleep. I found out that there were hundreds of prisoners here, and there was no point in it. After hearing my question, Wu Ying sneered and said, "This place has been a male prison since ancient times, and no one has ever escaped. β
When I entered the cell, I saw that there was a large bunk against the wall, and there were more than a dozen people in a cell of Wu Ying, including the big man Yu Manli.
There was no light in the room, and the jailer stood at the door with torches, and when he saw that the prisoners had entered the house, he shouted "sleep" and dispersed.
A few people unfolded the bed and were about to go to bed, Wu Ying glared and said, "It's so unruly, Brother Long hasn't spoken yet!" The men hurriedly got up again and stood on the ground waiting for me to speak.
Wu Ying smiled and said, "Brother Long, please first, pick a good place." β
I threw the futon on the bed casually and said, "Let's not do this in the future, if you really let me make rules, then there is only one rule, that is, there are no rules, and they should be treated as brothers." β
Wu Ying scratched his head and said, "Is this okay?" β
"Nothing can't be done, sleep."
Wu Ying waved at the others and said, "Since the eldest brother has said so, don't be stunned." "As soon as the people went to bed, Wu Ying and Yu Manli put the bed next to me left and right, and also went to bed, this group of men lay there and did not sleep, and began to talk about the mountains, but none of them fell asleep.
I touched the martial arts baby next to me and asked casually, "Eh, how did you get in?" β
Wu Ying sighed and said, "Steal." β
"Oh, what did you steal?"
"Manli and I were originally handymen in the kitchen of a large family, shouldn't we see that there was no one in the master's house when we got off work that day, so I stepped forward and took a silver wine glass and was about to put it in my arms, but unfortunately I was bumped into by someone, and I was escorted to the government on the spot, and then I came here, causing Manli to have a lawsuit with me."
Yu Manli said angrily: "If you exchange the wine glass for money, it will naturally be indispensable to my benefits, since you have been arrested, then I will also admit it, this is called blessing and hardship." β
I asked Wu Ying, "How long did you sentence?" β
Wu Ying said: "2 years." β
I was surprised: "Stealing a broken wine glass is so long?" β
Wu Ying smiled bitterly: "Who made us men, in the eyes of those women, men deserve to die if they make mistakes." β
I said carefully: "Do you know that in countries other than the daughter country, it is actually the men who have the final say? β
Wu Ying said: "I've heard people talk about it, saying that the emperor, prime minister, and general there are all men, and even the rough work of farming and striking iron is done by them." β
Before I could say anything, someone suddenly said, "It's terrible!"
I was stunned and said, "What's so scary? β
The man laughed and said, "You want me to go farming and make ironβI'd rather stay in prison than do it anyway!" β
I cried and laughed: "Damn, I thought I was lazy enough, but I didn't expect you to be even lazy." β
Wu Ying said cautiously: "Brother Long, you ...... You can't have thought about that, right? β
I'm speechless.
Wu Ying stammered again: "Brother Long, don't be angry when I ask you something." β
I said, "Just ask." β
Wu Ying hesitated: "Are you really ...... What kind of business do you do? β
As soon as I said this, I suddenly became angry and said loudly: "No! As soon as I shouted like this, others suddenly didn't dare to speak...... Wu Ying said: "Actually, I don't think you are like it, I thought so when you punched me in the face, I really did that, my temper is definitely not as hot as you, you seem to be from those legendary 'man countries'." β
I didn't feel good and said: "Lao Tzu is meant to be!" Let me tell you, Lao Tzu is not only from the 'country of men', but also a sword god! β
A cadre said in horror: "Sword God? Someone also whispered: "Lord Su Jing of our daughter country seems to be the only sword god on the continent." β
I said loudly: "You Su Jing is nothing remarkable, in order to find Lao Tzu and beg me, I also slept in the same bed with her." β
As soon as these words came out, the whole cell was quiet, and after a long time, Wu Ying said to me in his heart: "Brother Long, you are the boss, and you have to deal with whatever you say, but there must be a limit to bragging, brother, don't be upset when you say this, there are no outsiders here, you should listen to a joke, but if you go outside, don't you have to cause trouble?" You said that Master Su slept with you......"
I said angrily: "I slept with her, not with her!" β
"Well, let's just grudgingly believe that."
Someone whispered again: "Master Su doesn't seem to be a good man." "It seems that Su Jing is a household name in her daughter's country, and her prestige is extremely high, I wonder if these guys have been oppressed by women and still protect her like this, but after thinking about it, I understand - this is the same as those little girls in the patriarchal world who like young heroes, regardless of surname.
Fortunately, I already knew that no one believed me when I said it, so I took it as a vent.
Wu Ying diverted the topic and said, "Brother Long, what is the matter with Siying looking for you during the day?" β
I said, "What else is there to knock on a pen." β
Wu Ying said: "We have also thought of this, everyone here has been knocked by her." β
I said, "Listen to her, as long as someone is guaranteed to go out, why don't you have any family?" β
Wu Ying sighed and said: "If someone is in charge, they can't come here at all, there was no male prison in the daughter country before, unless it was murder and arson, and no one cares if a man makes a mistake, even if he goes to court, if the family is willing to move, the government will not investigate it deeply, and he will be released after a little punishment, but people like us who are from poor backgrounds and no one cares about it have broken the law gradually more and more, and then the imperial court has built a male prison camp, Si Ying is the biggest official here, that old man loves money like life, but unfortunately this is a place without oil and water, When the brothers came in, they were inevitably exploited by her, and it was good to be able to honor her less, if she was poor and white, a beating was indispensable, and the court allocated a lot of money to the male prison camp a year, but after three deductions and two deductions from the battalion, it was our turn to be pitiful, so we couldn't even eat. β
I nodded and said, "So that's the case, no wonder that old woman looked dissatisfied, it turned out that she couldn't scavenge oil and water." I asked Wu Ying, "So all the male prisoners in the country are locked up here?" β
Wu Ying nodded and said, "Yes, what you saw during the day is only a small part, and there is also a prison camp in the northwest and southwest corners, and there are more than a thousand people in total." β
I was speechless, "So much? β
Wu Ying said: "It's not much, the population of the daughter country is tens of millions, and there are more than 1,000 of our male prisoners," he smiled self-deprecatingly, "Speaking of which, we are also one in ten thousand." β
I said, "What did you come in for?" β
Wu Ying said: "There is everything, petty theft, stealing behind his wife's back......"
I interrupted him and said, "And stealing from his wife? β
Wu Ying pointed to the side of the shop: "Qi Xiaohuan came in because he hooked up with other women and was denounced by his wife." β
The one named Qi Xiaohuan in the darkness suddenly shouted: "What do you mean by hooking up?" I didn't even hold hands with her, and the vicious woman in my family beat me every day, can't I find someone to complain? β
I broke down and said, "You won't hit her if she hits you?" β
The other prisoners laughed together: "Who dares to hit a woman?" β
If these words were put in the mouth of a modern man, I would respect him as a real man, but at this moment, the situation is different, I inexplicably gave birth to a sadness and grievance in my heart, I sat up straight, hugged my legs and said angrily: "Damn, are you still men?" β
Yigan didn't dare to fight back, but muttered in a low voice: "It's the men who don't dare to hit the women." β
Wu Ying smiled and said, "Brother Long, don't be angry, let's talk about you, don't you have anyone to protect you?" β
"That old. Zi asked me to find the woman who gave me money during the day, where can I find her in Lao Tzu? β
At this time, Yu Manli finally couldn't help but ask: "Big brother, what is a bitch?" β
"That's it...... Women come out to sell. β
Wu Ying frowned and said, "Brother Long, it's not easy for you to do this. β
I hurriedly said, "What's wrong?" "After some conversation, I found out that Wu Ying was clear about the things in prison, and he said this, which made me mention it in my heart.
Wu Ying said: "Like us, there is a deadline for the length of time here, and I will go out in another year, but you are different, you are the person who was sent directly by the Patrol Soldiers and Horses Division, and you haven't passed the hall yet, it is said that you can be big or small, even if the government is strict, you will sit for a year and a half at most, but now the whole country is recruiting new soldiers, how can they take care of you?" In fact, Si Ying has the heart to let you go, and no one will ask if you leave tomorrow, but she wants to calculate your ransom, if that person doesn't come to protect you for a day, she can lock you up for a day, and if she doesn't come for 10 years, she can lock you up for 10 years. β
I changed color and said, "Then you mean I'm going to die of old age here?" β
Wu Ying said hesitantly: "I hope Si Ying sees that you have no oil and water to squeeze, and maybe he will let you go in a few days." β
My heart is half cold, Wu Ying's analysis is reasonable, that old woman will do this, originally in the case of Su Jing's unreliable, my biggest hope is to go out as soon as possible to find the high-level of my daughter country to show my identity, and let them assist me to go back, really like Wu Ying said, I might as well die!
I was at a loss when I thought about it, so I simply put my heart into the quilt and said loudly: "Sleep! β
Wu Ying echoed: "Big brother is right, I still have to work tomorrow, let's go to bed early." β
I poked my head out again and asked, "What kind of work are you doing, digging sand or moving stones?" β
Wu Ying smiled: "How can we do those rough jobs - let's embroider." β
My eyes widened: "Embroidery? β
Wu Ying said: "Yes." β
As soon as I turned over and sat up, I shook Yu Manli desperately and said, "You still strangle me!" β
Yu Manli stretched out her fingers and pushed me aside with a slight block of her big hand like a mallet, and said in a rough voice: "Brother Long, calm down, if you really don't want to do it, I'll embroider for you." β
I cried and laughed, "Just you? Will you? β
Wu Ying said lightly: "Manli embroidery is the number one, and none of the more than 1,000 people in the male prison camp is his opponent." β
