Yang Ruxin looked at Gao Dazhuang with a smile that was not quite a smile.
"What a cunning fellow," Qi Jingyi coldly snorted. "Don’t tell this dagger is fake, even if it were real, stabbing on the right side wouldn’t kill you." After all, the heart is on the left side.
Gao Dazhuang’s face looked sowhat strange.
"Alright, I’ll take you in," Yang Ruxin cheerfully interrupted Qi Jingyi, "But my people are all bound by a death covenant, think it over and you can follow Du Man to sign the Selling Covenant." Others might not know, but she knew that this old man’s heart was on the right side.
"Ah, Xinxin, you..."
"I am being rciful," Yang Ruxin did not plan to reveal the old man’s peculiarity.
"Alright, but if there’s anything improper with these people, let this Prince know, I’ll support you..."
"Thank you, Prince," Yang Ruxin smiled, then turned to look at the ten won, seven of whom she personally rescued from the basent of the Ji Residence, and the other two were saved from an outside camp. They were the ones among the won who had fallen very ill and many thought they could not survive, but Yang Ruxin revived them with a few needles. One of them was the young girl Caoya.
All the won looked at Yang Ruxin apprehensively. They did not know whether following Yang Ruxin would turn out well, but they knew that staying here would definitely not be favorable, so they would rather sell themselves to strive for a way to live.
Yang Ruxin glanced at Du Juan: "Give them needles and thread." Once everyone had needles and thread, "Embroider a flower in a quarter of an hour, any flower will do, start now."
The won were stunned, but they did not dare to delay and hurriedly began to embroider with their heads bowed.
"Xinxin, are you recruiting embroidery girls?" Qi Jingyi ca closer.
"How did you like the doll that I sent to Beijing last ti?" Yang Ruxin asked him.
"Good, but Thirteenth Sister saw it and took it away. I’ve been aning to ask for another one, and then the war broke out," Qi Jingyi’s eyes lit up, "Are you planning to make those?"
"Interested?"
"Definitely," Qi Jingyi quickly nodded, "You know, supporting troops requires a lot of silver..."
"I’ll take them back to make those; I have a lot of designs, many styles. We could release a new model each month, and even if soone copies them later, I’m not afraid..."
"Can these people do it? Should I send you so top-tier embroidery girls? You know..."
"No need," Yang Ruxin shook her head, as top-tier embroidery girls would be underutilized making those.
A quarter of an hour is very short; truthfully, it’s not possible to embroider a complete pattern. Yang Ruxin just wanted to see everyone’s needlework level. Of course, since she couldn’t even hold a needle steadily, the judgnt could only be left to Du Man and Du Juan.
Soon, everyone stopped their needles, so of them exhaled deeply, and others had faces full of annoyance.
Du Juan and Du Man quickly collected the embroidered pieces. The best one was from Gui Family. Although it was only a quarter of an hour, she had already embroidered a plum blossom albeit rudintary, but the stitches were very fine.
Next was Liu Ai; her craftsmanship was the best among them, while Huaya and Azhu were among the middle.
"Sister Xin, is mine the worst?" Caoya asked Yang Ruxin with pursed lips, looking uneasy.
"But it’s much better than Sister Xin’s," Yang Ruxin touched Caoya’s head, "Sister Xin isn’t as good as Caoya, wait until you grow up, you’ll definitely be amazing."
