"This was prepared by Madam for Miss Lin," Hu Meier explained. The two contracts inside were naturally between Hu Meier and Lin Xinyi.

"But Mei'er's previous master wasn't me, was he? Then why doesn't Mei'er have a letter of introduction?"

“Reporting to Miss, Mei’er’s previous master disliked her and was naturally unwilling to write a letter of introduction for her. If it weren’t for you, Miss, Mei’er might not have a job,” Hu Mei’er said. For personal attendants, jobs were obtained through letters of introduction among nobles.

If Bai Yueyue had chosen to send Hu Meier back, her former master wouldn't have been willing to take her in. Hu Meier would have lost her job, becoming an ordinary or lower-ranking servant, or perhaps even nowhere to go. Therefore, Hu Meier was especially grateful for Bai Yueyue's kindness at the time.

Hmm, what a blind master! How could he not like Mei'er, who is so reliable?

Although I don't know what she looked like in the past, I really like Hu Meier and Bai Yueyue now, and I think she is very reliable.

"Why didn't Mei'er's previous owner like her? Mei'er was clearly very reliable."

"Because that lord doesn't like Mei'er's guqin," Hu Mei'er explained.

Bai Yueyue understood. Hu Meier's guqin playing was very impressive. As the master, being outshone by her personal attendant must have made her feel very ashamed.

“But I really like Mei’er’s guqin.” Bai Yueyue put Cui Ye’s contract and letter of introduction inside, locked it, and said, “Besides, Mei’er is very important to me. If it weren’t for Mei’er, I would be troubled by many things.”

"Mei'er also likes the eldest young lady the most, so Mei'er only wants to serve the eldest young lady now."
