Chapter 92: A Clever Trap
The rural girls thought that they were making money by these crafts, and they were very happy, so they immediately picked up the silk cloth and sewed it seriously.
Cuihua looked at the thing in front of her, and she didn't mean to do anything at all.
Mu Jiaren took it and was going to help him sew it, when a dark-skinned man came over and looked at them: "You two? Is there a problem? ”
"No, no, my cousin has a bad brain, she can't embroider, I'll help her, let's just get a piece of money."
The man looked at Cuihua and seemed to believe her words, what they did, it would be better to find some fools and save trouble.
Cuihua did this in the room for a day, originally he wanted to go out for a walk, but found that this courtyard was only a few rooms, plus the kitchen and the latrine, and nothing else.
Mu Jiaren had instructed him before to try not to speak, after all, he was a man.
At night, Mu Jiaren let Cuihua sleep on the innermost side and she slept on the outside, so that it was easier to protect him.
She tasted a faint medicinal taste in today's meal, which shows that they are doing their hands and feet in the meal, and the Azure Phantom Butterfly is also a picky eater, and not everyone's blood can be sucked.
Five days passed quickly, and the man gave different money according to everyone's embroidery, and Mu Jiaren's embroidery was relatively detailed and vivid, so the silver was higher.
After that, a man named Li San spoke: "You can go home to visit your parents and report your safety, if you don't think it's necessary, you can go directly with us and go directly to the embroidery workshop to work." ”
In the past few days, many women have come one after another, and some of them are thinking about going home.
Li San is considered to be a steward here, and the other men all listen to his arrangement, he is not tall, but he is very burly, and his voice is low and hoarse.
"The work of the embroidery workshop is calculated by the day, and if you don't go back, you may make more money if you go directly to the embroidery workshop."
As soon as he finished speaking, the women who were just going to go home said that they didn't need to go back.
Li San asked people to bring pen and paper, asked them to write a letter to report their safety, and sent some silver to their home.
Some rural girls are illiterate, and Li San also arranged for someone to write on their behalf.
After that, he brought a few packages and read the name: "This is what your family asked me to transfer to you, you can rest assured, it is very easy to do the work, and you don't need to sell yourself, go to the workshop to talk less and do more things, don't ask, the more obedient the person, the higher the salary." ”
The girls were very happy and agreed obediently.
Cuihua whispered in Mu Jiaren's ear, "What's the problem here?" ”
Mu Jiaren shook her head: "You'll know later." ”
He must not have believed her now, and when he entered the cave, things would be clear.
Cuihua felt that he was so stupid, he would be deceived by such a woman, and he was dressed as a man or a woman, he would definitely not just forget about it!
After a night's rest, they were taken from the old house to a cave, and the whole time they were blindfolded, and one helped the other to go forward.
When I unfastened my eyes, I saw a large stone cave with chairs and embroidery stuff, but flowers and butterflies were flying around.
"It's so beautiful!"
The girls sighed.
Mu Jiaren also sighed a little, the azure phantom butterflies are really beautiful, they are smaller than ordinary butterflies, but there are snowflake-like lines on the wings, plus the bright lake blue wings, the beauty is very bewitching.
The blue color of the lake means that these butterflies are poisonous.
"Everyone can start, the drawings are all ready, the fruit and refreshments are all available, you can access them at any time when you need them, as long as you concentrate on embroidery."
The girls were very happy to see a lot of fresh fruits and gift boxes of snacks on the table on the side, and they each received their things and began to embroider.
At this time, Li San came over with a man: "There is a requirement for embroidery here, that is, to puncture the earlobes on both sides, you have also seen that there are many butterflies here, it is a holy object, if it falls on you, it means that you have talent, and your embroidery will be twice as much as others." ”
"Ahh So good! ”
The girls didn't seem to care about having their earlobes punctured, just thinking about who would be the lucky one.
Mu Jiaren guessed that it was with her fingers before, but she didn't expect them to be smarter, chose earlobes, and did so many details to make the girls completely believe them.
No wonder it has been hidden for so long and has not been discovered.
The reason why he said this was to see who had the right physique, and for the blood that the Azure Phantom Butterfly didn't like, they would send that person away.
The man who came over just now punctured their earlobes, and when it was Cuihua's turn, he was very resistant, and Mu Jiaren kindly suggested: "It's better to prick your hands, my sister's embroidery is not good, and her fingers can't be used." ”
Li San's superb acting skills cooperated: "Then your money will be less than others, I don't raise idlers here after all." ”
"Don't worry, I'll embroider my sister's share, just look at the money."
Li San nodded, and Cuihua reluctantly accepted the matter of pricking her fingers.
After a few days of getting along, everyone got acquainted, chatting about family life and doing embroidery, and after a while, butterflies began to fall into the ears of some people and began to suck.
The girl who was sucked by the blood was not only not alarmed, but felt very honored, so that the things she embroidered were more expensive than others.
After a while, most of them had butterflies on their bodies, including Emerald Flower's fingers.
"Your sister has butterflies falling, but I didn't expect me to have one." A girl in a blue cotton dress said disappointedly, her name is Yang Guizhi, and her family lives on a few acres of land, and her life is very hard.
Mu Jiaren's character for Cuihua is stupid and lazy, and she doesn't speak.
"It's okay, you've taken a lot of money these days, and you can live a good life when you go back."
"But I also have an older brother, and my mother pointed out that I took the money back to my brother to marry a daughter-in-law." The girl began to cry anxiously as she spoke.
Mu Jiaren didn't know how to comfort her, the girl who stayed behind did not sell her body, but sold her life, she was actually very lucky to get out alive.
At noon, someone brought lunch, everyone continued to embroider after eating, and in the afternoon, Li San brought people over to check and called a few girls who did not have butterflies to eat.
"You guys don't seem to have any talent."
What Li San said was very regrettable.
Frustrated, several girls took the embroidery and tried to fight for it again.
"That's it, there are other errands, it's a little hard and tiring, if you want to, you can go with me, and if you don't want to, you can go back."
Hearing this, the girl in the blue cotton coat immediately asked, "It doesn't matter if you are tired and tired, how much is the salary?" ”
"On a monthly basis, five taels of silver per month, but if you can do it for three months, you can give twenty taels."
The girls immediately turned their sadness into joy and nodded in agreement.
Mu Jiaren felt strange, wasn't it their main purpose to suck blood and raise Azure Phantom Butterflies? What else can these girls do?
