At this moment, Song Danru was also examining Qingtan.
She rescued this young maid two years ago, and after she recovered from her injuries, she stayed on as a lowly cleaning maid.
I had never really looked at this girl before, but now I see that she is quite pretty, even more so than the head maid in my room before. The maids in my room before were all selected by the Marquis's mansion and sent to my side, and they were to accompany me to the Crown Prince's mansion as part of my dowry.
However, this girl has a somewhat gentle and delicate personality.
Since Song Danru fell into trouble, all of his servants have turned against him and sided with Song Yuqing.
Only the green sandalwood remained.
When Qingtan first came to the Marquis's mansion, Song Danru did not trust her and dared not keep her by his side to give her important responsibilities. However, her true feelings were revealed when she fell into trouble, which shows that she had been blinded by misplaced trust and actually believed those heartless people.
Song Danru pulled herself back to reality:
"Qingtan, I am no longer the young lady of this Marquis's mansion. From now on, you don't need to call me 'young lady'. You can call me 'elder sister' instead."
“How can this be? Miss saved me, so you will be my Miss for life.”
Shen Danru sighed. Alas, she had lived in the modern world for too long and was no longer used to the idea that women in ancient times had masochistic tendencies and were willing to be slaves.
Thinking about her situation in the Marquis's mansion, Song Danru couldn't help but worry about her.
"Qingtan, what are your plans for the future?"
Qingtan, a clever little maid, panicked upon hearing this. She stepped forward and knelt before Song Danru's legs:
"Miss, Miss, are you not going to take me anymore?"
Song Danru couldn't help but feel sorry for her. What a good girl she was. She had suffered with her for almost half a year, not having enough to eat or wear. The fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, who should have been growing, was thin and bony, and she was often injured.
However, she could never stay in this cannibalistic manor.
As for her father and mother, she had seen through them; they only used her and had no affection for her whatsoever.
Even right after her death, Song Yuqing ordered her to be thrown into a mass grave to be fed to dogs. When her parents found out, they not only did not try to dissuade Song Yuqing, but also instructed all the servants in the Marquis's mansion to listen to Song Yuqing, and that she would be the only legitimate daughter of the Marquis's mansion in the future.
If it weren't for Qingtan protecting her day and night, her body would have been ruined long ago.
"Qingtan, I'm leaving this place. I wonder if you...?"
Would you like to come with me?
