"Okay, you guys pick it up slowly first. If anything happens, just call me."

The man didn't want to spend any time with them here, so he called the woman in plain clothes over to listen to Qinan and the others' orders, then he opened the door and left.

"Hey, girl, can you help us open that cage?"

Qi Nan pointed to the innermost cage again.

The woman didn't speak, she just smiled and nodded to Qinan, then took the key and opened the door.

Only now did Qi Nan and the others discover something unusual. This woman seemed unable to speak and was probably mute.

Maybe every woman in the village is mute. After all, only mutes can keep secrets.

"Oh! These children look so pitiful! It's a pity that we can only adopt one."

Qinan deliberately spoke loudly to see if the mute girl would react.

"It's okay. Let's raise one first. If the children feel lonely later, we can find them a younger brother or sister to raise. It's the same thing."

"That's true. Hey, poor little boys, which one of you wants to be my son?"

Qinan wanted to delay as much time as possible, so he actively communicated with these children.

She showed that she sincerely wanted to adopt a child, and no matter who she adopted, she would treat him well.

The mute girl silently watched her interact with these children, and her originally dull expression became a little looser.

She has been in Jinzi Village for so many years, so she naturally knows that this is not a good place.

If these children can meet a pair of parents who treat them sincerely, it will be their good fortune.

It's better than being stuck here forever, like her.

The rules here are that if the boys who are never selected are sold to the black mines as laborers, the girls are either left in the village and given to the men in the village as wives, or they are also sold to the land of fireworks. Not a happy ending.

After Qi Nan shouted these words, the children present fell strangely silent.

They all looked at Qinan expectantly, but said nothing.

They are undoubtedly people who abide by the rules. Even though they know that this is their only 11th chance to be selected and live a good life, they do not fight for it. Instead, they are like a group of well-trained wooden people.

He only learned to be obedient, well-behaved and sensible, which made the people who watched him feel more and more distressed.

"Oh, this is really hard to choose!"

"How about we let this girl choose one for us?"

"This is a good idea. This girl is experienced at first glance. She must know which child is best, right?"

The woman in plain clothes did not expect that Qin Nan and the others would bring the topic to her.

She couldn't speak, so she could only smile at them apologetically.

"Girl, don't be shy! Help us come up with an idea, otherwise your master will come to urge you later, and we're afraid we won't have time."

Qinan wanted to use her as a breakthrough to see if this person would be useful to them later.

But the woman just continued to shake her head, looking like she was out of touch.

“Oh, don’t be afraid, we won’t say that you chose it for us.

We really don’t have much experience. No matter which child you choose for us, we will treat him well when we go back. "

Her words made the mute girl let down some of her guard, and the mute girl also led them to the innermost cage near the wall.
