"If these people dare to cause you trouble, don't be soft-hearted. You are an official and they are the people." Gu Hong said coldly while looking at the women of Wanning Village in the yard.
When Gu Hong glanced at the village women, they all shrank their necks guiltily.
Shen Ningsi glanced at them and then assigned them tasks.
These people brought cloth and needles and thread and worked quietly in Shen Ningsi's yard for two days. After that, they took the things back home to make them like everyone else.
"Who made this?" Early in the morning, these women came to pick up things. Shen Ningsi stood among them with a few panda-shaped dolls in her hands.
“I didn’t do this!”
"It wasn't me who did it!" When the women from Wanning Village saw the crooked rag doll in Shen Ningsi's hand, they all shook their heads like rattles, and no one admitted it.
When Ana Shen saw this scene, she was not angry, but looked at them seriously.
"I'll give you one last chance. Who did this? As long as you admit it and come forward, I'm willing to give you another chance."
Ana Shen spoke lightly.
She has done her utmost!
As these people listened, they shook their heads even faster!
"County Lady, this is really not made by me. Besides, there are so many people making rag dolls, why do you think we made it?" A woman said with a dissatisfied look on her face.
"We come here to make money, not to be framed by you!" Soon, her words resonated with the others, and everyone looked at Shen Ningsi with dissatisfaction.
"Even if you are the county lord, you can't be so arbitrary!"
For a moment, everyone pointed their fingers at Shen Ningsi.
"Maybe you forgot something. The dolls they make are different from yours!"
Shen Ningsi spoke calmly. "I just wanted to give some of you a chance, but you gave up! Maybe you don't know, but all the needles, threads, and fabrics I distributed are actually different."
Hearing Shen Ningsi say this, the expressions of the two women changed immediately!
They didn't expect that Shen Ningsi actually had this trick! For a moment, they were passive.
"Since you are unwilling to admit it, I have no choice but to find it out for you." Shen Ningsi said lightly.
"But before that, I'll send someone to call the head of the village over." After Shen Ningsi finished speaking, Liu trotted out. When several village women saw her, they were terrified, but at this point, they had no choice but to bite the bullet and deny it!
Not long after, the angry headman walked in from outside. When he saw these women, a look of disappointment appeared on his face.
"You are the black sheep among you! When you first came to the county lady's place to make rag dolls, each of you said something nicer than the other! Now, only a few days have passed, and what are you doing now?"
If the captain had a crutch in his hand at this moment, he would have hit these people with it long ago!
"Head of the village, does that mean everything Shen Ningsi says is true? We even said she framed us!" A woman said with dissatisfaction.
"Nonsense! What did the county lady accuse you of? She accused you of making bad dolls?" The head of the village said with a cold face.
"right……"
"Fuck you! Whoever did this, come forward, or forget about any future collective distributions in the village!"
The head of the village was so angry!
He had made a promise in front of Shen Ningsi at the beginning, but now these people slapped him hard in the face!
How could he have the nerve to ask Shen Ningsi for something in the future? These people had simply shattered the last glimmer of hope for Wanning Village!
The head of the village had a look of deep sorrow on his face. Shen Ningsi certainly understood what he was thinking, but she was not a saint. Giving the people of Wanning Village a chance this time was her last chance to be kind!
Of course, she had already guessed such an outcome!
"I saw that these dolls were made by Sanshunzi's wife. She mixed them in with the dolls, and I told her off! But she didn't listen and told me to mind my own business!"
A woman already knew that the situation was hopeless, and now she stood up and pointed the finger, maybe she and others could be spared! After all, they all did it according to Shen Ningsi's request!
"Wang, stop slandering me here! Why don't you tell me that you made these dolls!" San Shunzi's wife suddenly became anxious!
She didn't expect that Wang would betray her!
"San Shunzi's wife, don't let one person's mistake harm everyone! You'd better admit it!" The other women who saw it stood up at this time.
They have also earned some money these days, and their status in the family is much higher than before!
You can also buy some snacks for the kids!
If I work for a while longer, I'll be able to earn enough money to buy new clothes before the New Year! If Shen Ningsi sends me back now, everything will be ruined!
"Bah! I didn't expect that all of you would become Shen Ningsi's lackeys for a little bit of immediate benefit! So what if I made this rag doll? Doesn't she earn more than us? I heard that this rag doll is very expensive in other places!"
San Shunzi's wife said this with a dissatisfied look on her face.
Now it is her last dying struggle!
When Shen Ningsi heard her say this, she couldn't help but laugh!
"I think you're mistaken. What I earn is what I deserve. If it weren't for the drawings I drew, the dolls you made might not sell so well!"
Shen Ningsi said with an indifferent expression.
When everyone heard her say this, they all lowered their heads, as if to agree.
"Daughter-in-law Sanshun, don't forget that the needlework and fabrics we use to make the dolls are all provided by the county lady! All we have invested is our time. We have only been working for a few days, and we can earn a good amount of money every day. You should be content! I guess your man doesn't earn as much as you do now!"
Everyone was talking about how bad it was for Samsun's wife to do this!
She was annoyed when she heard that!
"Hmph, you guys just stay and continue to curry favor with Chen Ningsi. I won't keep you company! I don't want this salary!" Sanshun's wife said proudly.
She didn't want to wait for Shen Ningsi to fire her! If that happened, she would definitely become a joke in Wanning Village!
After saying that, she was about to walk out.
"Stop!" Just as she was about to leave despite the village head and many people trying to stop her, Shen Ningsi spoke softly.
When Sanshun's wife heard her words, she subconsciously stopped, then turned around and looked at Shen Ningsi with a wary look.
"Have you admitted that you made this doll? Of course, it's okay if you don't admit it. I have a way to prove that you made this doll. Besides, everyone's stitches are different. When the time comes, we can find the embroiderer and we'll know for sure."
As soon as Shen Ningsi finished speaking, Sanshun's wife had already walked in front of him with an unwilling look on her face.
"Shen Ningsi, are you willing to force someone to death?"
