Three Women in the Cage

Chapter 251 Looking for a Job

The driver stared ahead and said, "Leave one of you standing by the door. When someone else gets on, I'll collect the change. Before you get off, I'll take whatever I can. If you don't have enough, you'll have to pay for it yourself."

Upon hearing this, both of them were stunned, and the people around them quickly echoed: "Oh, the driver is fine! Girl, hurry up and guard the door..."

Yaya stood up and walked towards the door excitedly. She stood next to the driver and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, master, thank you so much..."

She was overwhelmed with emotions, and in an instant she went from being disheartened at the beginning to being passionate.

I thought to myself, there are still many good people!

Every time the bus arrived at a stop, pedestrians would get on. Yaya would stand at the door and before they could put in their coins, she would say, "Hello, please give me the change..."

Those people were puzzled, wondering when the toll collector appeared. When they were hesitating whether to pay her, Yaya quickly explained: "It's like this, I put in extra money, and the driver asked me to collect the extra money here..."

After hearing her explanation, those people felt relieved and handed over the change generously. Soon, after just a few stops, Yaya had collected enough change.

She bowed to the driver with gratitude and found a seat to sit down.

After a two-hour drive, they finally arrived at their destination. They hurriedly got off the car with their luggage and found that the surrounding environment was no longer as magnificent as when they got on the car.

The somewhat desolate low houses and muddy roads around them exuded a rural atmosphere. This contrast made them feel like they were back home.

The two looked around in confusion, feeling as if getting on the bus was heaven and getting off was hell. In their eyes, it seemed that their hometown was the poorest place, but wherever they went, they would see a prosperous big city, a place that showed off their wealth.

However, they seemed to be wrong. From the beginning to the end, they just moved from one poor place to another. The beauty they saw in between was just the moon in the mirror and the flower in the water, which was ethereal and beyond their reach.

But there are still differences between this place and their hometown. In addition to the dilapidated residential houses and muddy roads, there is also a large number of factories. Those factories are the reason why outsiders come here from afar.

In fact, the dilapidated residential houses around here are not occupied by local residents, but migrant workers from all over the place. These original residents moved to the city center a long time ago for various reasons.

The dilapidated houses left behind were rented out to migrant workers and became their temporary homes.

These houses are basically unoccupied during the day. Only at night do the workers come home from work and take a nap in them. The rest of the time, they are in the factory.

This is just a place for them to stay, so their requirements are not high, as long as they have a place to stay.

The two sisters stood there, looking at everything around them. Just as they were confused, a familiar voice came from a distance.

"Hey, here!" Yang Yu came running over, waving and smiling.

The two looked in the direction of the sound and were surprised to see their mother. They hurried forward and shouted excitedly: "Mom..."

Yang Yu took the luggage, looked at them for a moment, and muttered: "It's good that you're here, it's good that you're here..."

They hadn't seen each other for several months, and they were both a little excited to meet each other at this moment, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

It was Yang Yu who smiled first and said, "Come on, I'll take you to where you're staying first, and we'll talk slowly when we get there..."

The two sisters followed their mother and walked along one path after another with Yang Yu. Finally, after crossing a wooden bridge, they arrived at a very remote place.

Looking at the dilapidated little house left in the bamboo forest, they showed surprised expressions. They didn't expect that this house was even more dilapidated than their own house.

This is just a thatched house built casually. Behind the house is a bamboo forest full of garbage, and under the bamboo forest is a dirty and smelly ditch.

Because of its location, the abandoned house gives people a gloomy and damp feeling, as if a snake will jump out of the bamboo forest at any time and hide in the house.

Xinxin followed closer to the house with a feeling of loss and fear. She saw her mother unlock the door, push it open, and shout to the two sisters behind her: "Come in, come in quickly..."

The two sisters walked in one after the other and looked at the narrow space inside. There was only a simple bed and a tattered wooden table, nothing else. Xinxin suddenly felt depressed.

She didn't understand why they still felt like they were trapped even though they had escaped.

A feeling of wanting to escape but being unable to do so deeply oppressed her.

The next day, Yang Yu got up early in the morning. Before leaving, she kept reminding him: "There are two steamed buns on the table. Eat them and then go to the nearby factories to find a job. You can earn some living expenses during the two-month holiday. It's useless to play around anyway, so you might as well find a real job..."

After saying that, she took a steamed bun, ate it in big bites, and strode out.

After Yang Yu left, the two sisters also got up. The narrow bed was so small that it was really uncomfortable for three of them to sleep on. In addition, the room smelled musty, and they felt uncomfortable after staying in it for a long time.

In this kind of environment, who would have the mind to slack off and sleep? A feeling of oppression reminds them that they are here to temper their lives.

They forced themselves to cheer up, hurriedly put on their clothes, and went out with steamed buns in their hands.

After walking through muddy roads, we finally arrived at the place where we got off yesterday. We kept walking along the cement road ahead and arrived at the industrial area.

They walked along the industrial zone, looking at each factory one by one. Whenever there was a recruitment notice posted on the door, Yaya would go up and ask.

Yaya is bold and not afraid of strangers. She asked the security guard at the door with confidence. The security guard asked her to go in and talk to the boss herself. Yaya was not nervous and walked in with confidence.

Xinxin followed behind, feeling very scared. She didn't even dare to talk to the security guard, let alone go in and talk to the boss.

She had no choice but to follow Yaya and walked in with a timid look on her face.

They had previously gone into several plastic factories, but because they had to work night shifts, they were unable to reach an agreement.

The company she works in now is a garment factory. Yaya is very satisfied with it. The products made there are not dirty and she does not have to work night shifts.

With an eager mood to try, she found the boss's wife. She responded to the boss's wife's sharp eyes and tricky questions with grace and grace, which pleased the boss's wife very much.

Xinxin's timid behavior made the boss lady frown. She didn't even dare to look her in the eyes, and her answers to her sharp questions were all messed up.

The result was obvious. The boss lady didn't want Xinxin and only wanted to keep Yaya, but Yaya insisted that both sisters stay together. The boss lady had no choice but to take them to the workshop to try them out for half a day.

When I arrived at the workshop and saw all kinds of workers busy working on sewing machines, a heavy atmosphere came over me.

The boss lady asked the team leader to demonstrate it once, and then asked them to operate the sewing machine one by one. Yaya was dexterous and had a talent for handicrafts. She sat down first and followed the movements that had just been demonstrated. She stepped on the sewing machine with her feet and quickly pulled the strips of cloth with her hands. In a moment, the lines on the cloth were smooth and exquisite. The boss lady and the team leader both showed satisfied expressions.
