Siheyuan: I am the Smart Pillar

Chapter 167: Jia Zhang's Embroidery Story

The guard, who had a very ferocious look and a baton in his hand, looked at Jia Zhang with a dark face. He snorted coldly and said, "This is the first time and the last time. Considering that you are a newcomer yesterday, I will not punish you. But if it happens again, don't blame me for being rude. Count quickly and loudly. The prison has its own rules, and you must adapt immediately. Well, do you understand?"

The female supervisor looked at Jia Zhang with a dark face, which made Jia Zhang's body hairy. She quickly said, "Yes, yes, I know." The female supervisor snorted coldly and said, "You should say I know, and I didn't hear what you said just now." Jia Zhang imitated others and stood at attention, raised her chest and said, "I know." The supervisor said loudly again, "Louder, I didn't hear it." Jia Zhang used all her strength to stand at attention and shouted, "Yes, I know."

The female supervisor nodded with great satisfaction, and then continued, "I like people who are very obedient. I hope you, Jia Zhang, will not challenge my authority. There will be no good end if you make trouble in here. I hope you are a smart person, do you understand?" Jia Zhang had experienced the horror of prison last night, so she naturally knew that she had to keep a low profile.

She immediately patted her chest and promised, "Please rest assured, I will know the situation and reform myself." The female supervisor nodded with satisfaction, glanced at Hong Mudan and said, "Today your task in this dormitory is to embroider on the quilt. I believe there is no one among you who can't do it."

The girls all shook their heads. Jia Zhang's heart skipped a beat. If it was the insole, she would not be afraid. But she had never done embroidery before. After thinking about it, she wanted to say that she couldn't do it, but when she saw the happy faces of the others, she knew that embroidery was the easiest job. If she said that she couldn't do it, these people would definitely teach her a profound lesson.

After thinking about it, even if she couldn't embroider, she couldn't just slack off. So she followed the other female prisoners and shook her head, saying that she could embroider. The female supervisor smiled and nodded, and led the group to a large workshop. This large workshop had everything, and all of them were female prisoners.

Some female prisoners were making shoes, some were holding insoles, and some were making quilts. The female prison guard took several people to their positions with a sullen face and said, "Don't think about being lazy. Your group must embroider 100 quilts today. I hope you can finish it. OK, I won't say any more nonsense, just hurry up and do it."

Everyone nodded, sat down in their respective seats, and started embroidering with needles and threads. Jia Zhang also sat in an empty seat, and after picking up the embroidery needle beside her, Jia Zhang couldn't help but frown. The reason was that the embroidery needle looked a bit out of place compared to his fat fingers. He usually embroidered on the soles of shoes when he was in the courtyard, and the needles on the soles of shoes were much thicker than embroidery needles. Jia Zhang was a little at a loss.

But seeing that other inmates had already started working, Jia Zhang had no choice but to pick up an embroidery needle that was a hundred times thinner than her little finger and pretend to embroider. It must be said that Jia Zhang was still quite skilled, because when he took the insole, he had to embroider on the insole. Embroidering on the quilt was just a change of things. He quickly embroidered a rough outline, which made Jia Zhang feel for the first time that he had such ability.

Inside the Red Star Steel Mill, Jia Dongxu told his master about the incident. Yi Zhonghai frowned and said, "Why? Why is he still in prison for half a month? Isn't there a letter of apology? This is too outrageous, too outrageous." Yi Zhonghai was a little angry. Of course, he was not talking to Jia Zhangshi. Instead, he was defending his good apprentice and gaining Jia Dongxu's favor.

Sure enough, when Jia Dongxu saw his master was so indignant, he felt a little grateful to him. Even if everyone in the world disagreed with his ideas, his master would still stand on his side. Jia Dongxu thought for a while and said, "What else can I do? I don't know who reported my mother's feudal superstition in the courtyard to the public security bureau."

Yi Zhonghai was naturally unhappy when he heard this. With a red face, he suppressed his anger and said, "This is nonsense. Matters in our courtyard must be resolved in the courtyard. Who is this? How can such things be spread out? How can our Red Star Courtyard be rated as an excellent courtyard in the future? It is really infuriating."

In Yi Zhonghai's idea, the three of them were in charge of the affairs of the courtyard. Because only in this way could his prestige rise steadily. He had to turn this courtyard into his own courtyard. Unexpectedly, it had not been long since he started, but he encountered many obstacles. This made Yi Zhonghai's anger in his heart nowhere to vent.

Jia Dongxu interrupted and said, "Master, I think it was Sha Zhu who leaked the news. Sha Zhu is the worst offender of our family, and he is very happy to see us suffer." Yi Zhonghai clenched his fists and cursed in his heart, why is it this Sha Zhu again! Why does he always go against me? Isn't it better for him to just listen to me?

Jia Dongxu quietly looked at his master's expression. If a master can understand his apprentice, then why can't an apprentice understand his master? Especially since his mother had analyzed for him that Yi Zhonghai wanted to take Sha Zhu as one of his elderly parents, Jia Dongxu felt a little hesitant. Although he didn't want to admit it, Sha Zhu's ability was much better than his.

If the relationship between Shazhu and Yi Zhonghai was alienated after today's incident, then he would have to choose me to take care of the elderly in this courtyard. The money that Yi Zhonghai had worked hard to earn all his life would be his, Jia Dongxu's, easy money. Thinking of this, Jia Dongxu was very happy. She knew how rich her cheap master's family property was.

Yi Zhonghai lowered his head and thought for a while, then said to Jia Dongxu, "I want to ask you if you found the person you were looking for yesterday. It seems like it's time to teach Sha Zhu a lesson."
