The girl beside him called out softly, "Mom, don't cry. It makes me sad when you cry."

She gently pulled the woman's arm and shook it.

Her aggrieved expression was obvious.

The woman was already quite upset, and upon hearing how sensible her daughter was, she burst into tears.

The cries were deafening.

Seeing her mother cry, the daughter also started to wail loudly.

One after another, the mother cried, then the daughter cried, back and forth.

Xiao Tang finally lost her patience. "Stop crying. Get to the point. If you want to sell your daughter, you need to find someone rich. I look like a poor wretch."

They both looked at her at the same time.

“Your Honor, how can you be a poor man? It doesn’t matter how much you give. I can tell you’re a good person and you’ll definitely take good care of my little Jin’er.”

Xiao Tang really wanted to ask this woman, who gave her the courage to think like this?

She looks like a bad person, okay?

The woman said, "My little Jin'er is named Zhang Jinxiu. If you take her back, she'll do anything for you, even be your slave."

Xiao Tang originally wanted to refuse.

Suddenly, she looked at the girl's appearance.

Zhang Jinxiu?

She knew who it was without even needing to say it.

The villain number 10-15 in the book.

Before the main villain is defeated, the male protagonist is injured and rescued by Zhang Jinxiu on the road. To repay her kindness, he promises to bring her into the palace after he ascends the throne, and even gives her the title of Imperial Concubine.

Because of Zhang Jinxiu's humble status, she naturally cannot be compared to Xiao Rourou.

Later, Xiao Rourou became jealous and, through the actions of others, caused Zhang Jinxiu's death.

Even with such a character, Zhang Jinxiu is... a woman who appears gentle but is actually ruthless.
