Chapter 325 - 325 Please Blink
325 Please Blink
The girl who had spilled soup on Chen Wei’er was also among the crowd. She was sitting opposite Chen Wei’er. There was anticipation in the other woman’s eyes.
Chen Wei’er gave the thin woman a calm look as she asked, “Sister Wang, what do you girls do in the village every day? Are there any entertaining activities? It’s so boring to just sit around.”
“There’s no entertainment. We just tidy up the house, look after the children, do the laundry, cook meals, hike to gather firewood, and harvest pigweed. The men take care of the farming,” Wang Hua answered casually, and the other women in the village nodded in agreement.
“That’s right! Those who smell need to have a few pieces of spare clothes a day. The worn-out clothes are covered in sweat. They are difficult to clean.”
“My child and husband usually hog the bath for a day. My child is still young, so he has a lot of needs…”
“I can still manage. I have a lot of family members, so it takes me two hours to cook! Don’t even talk about washing clothes…”
Everyone chimed in one after another, and Chen Wei’er also nodded in agreement from time to time.
“Your days are exhausting,” Chen Wei’er continued, “What do you do then whenever you are bored? Perhaps, do you sing around and play cards?”
Wang Hua answered, “We visit each other to chat every few days. Who even likes singing?”
“Give me a plate of melon seeds, and I can eat them all day! I’m just going to kill time.”
“I love to listen to shows, but my radio is always out of signal!”
“I love to sing. Do you know about karaoke?” Chen Wei’er remarked. “We have one at home. When I want to sing at home, I can do it right away.”
“Karaoke? What is that?”
There was almost no television in Osmanthus Village. The only electrical appliance in their houses was probably a radio. There were no mobile phones or telephones either. After all, the signal in the mountain was very poor.
“It is a device used for singing. Do you like singing?” Chen Wei’er also grabbed a handful of melon seeds and cracked them together with everyone—as if she had completely integrated into the crowd.
“I like it! I like it!” A short and thin woman grew excited and exclaimed, “I love singing, but my husband doesn’t like it. He says that singing costs a lot, and my singing is deadly.”
Chen Wei’er laughed out loud.
“Ignore him. If you want to sing, then do it. It’s just entertainment. It doesn’t cost money. Why can’t you sing? Since everyone feels joyous today, why don’t you sing a song for us?”
“Alright!” The petite woman had a fiery personality. She stood up without any stage fright and started singing.
Chen Wei’er had to say…her singing was genuinely terrible. The woman was completely out of tune. The few people around her laughed.
“Sixth Brother’s wife, you better stop singing! You can’t blame Sixth Brother for saying that your singing is deadly! Hahahahahaha!”
“With that broken voice of yours, I was still wondering how good your singing would be!”
The comments continued.
Everyone started to make fun of her, and Chen Wei’er also followed along with her.
The woman wearing a white shirt and the short-haired woman looked in their direction and then closed their eyes. It looked as if they were isolated from the world.
The women felt that Chen Wei’er and her husband were stupid. Couldn’t they see that everyone in the village was treating them as fat sheep for slaughter?
After everyone finished laughing, Chen Wei’er said, “I’ll also sing a song for everyone. I haven’t sung in a long time. It’s so lively here. I want to sing too!”
“Sing! Sing! Sing!”
“Let’s hear what the people in the city are singing!”
The girls and wives in the village had already been moved by Chen Wei’er. They had even forgotten that Chen Wei’er was their target.
Chen Wei’er also stood up and tried to speak as loudly as possible so that the woman wearing a white shirt and the short-haired woman not far away could also hear her.
She chose to sing in a language that the rest of the villagers didn’t understand. At the same time, she tweaked the lyrics.
With the help of the music, Chen Wei’er began to converse with the abducted girls in English.
[Were you abducted?]
[If you are, please blink three times!]
After she finished singing this line, Chen Wei’er saw the woman wearing a white shirt and the short-haired woman react. They looked in Chen Wei’er’s direction in disbelief and blinked three times.
Although she already had a premonition in her heart, Chen Wei’er didn’t feel the weight of the matter because she hadn’t confirmed it in person.
What if?
However, after receiving a definite answer, Chen Wei’er’s heart sank. She felt overwhelmed by reality.
These girls were supposed to be at a blooming age. They must have been the treasures of their parents…
She really wanted to kill those human traffickers with her own hands!
Chen Wei’er tried to calm her voice as much as possible. She didn’t reveal any emotions, nor did she let the people in the village get a hint.
She continued to sing.
[We have brought a lot of bodyguards with us, so try to stay close to me later. Don’t worry. I’ll definitely get you out of here. If you understand what I mean, blink three more times.]
