What a pitiful child! Seeing this today, I finally understand what it means to have the body of a young lady but the fate of a maid.
Lin Daiyu: She's also a girl from a wealthy family? How can we lose her?
Xiangling trembled violently and knelt on the ground with a thud. "Please don't send me away, young lady. There are many things I can do, such as cleaning and warming the bed. I just beg you to let me stay."
[Oh dear, what a waste to use such a nice girl as a bed warmer.]
Xiangling tugged at Shen Ajiao's skirt, "Please, Madam, take me in. I will do a lot."
"Then stay and serve in the study."
Shen Ajiao dared not ask the other person to kneel down again; that person was a potential poet, and she couldn't compare.
She, Ah Jiao, values talent the most!
Let's find a companion for Lin Baobao.
Seeing that she had been left behind, Xiangling knelt on the ground and kowtowed, then retreated while weeping.
"Why did you keep her here, Madam? What if she's a spy?"
[Hmm? What spy? What secret do we have?]
Lin Daiyu: It seems not...
"You take her with you first, I'll find her family."
Lin Daiyu: So Miss Xue doesn't want to waste money and just throw it at them?

Xiangling tentatively said, "You... our madam is a very nice person."
The Lin family's maid nodded repeatedly, "You're new here and don't know, but our mistress is very kind and treats us servants well. You'll understand after you stay for a few days."
Xiangling nodded, biting her lower lip tightly. In fact, she was terrified. The young lady had asked her to come, but she hadn't mentioned this. She had just heard what Mrs. Lin was thinking and even saw a little person jumping on Mrs. Lin's head. Could it be a monster?
But the mansion was peaceful and harmonious, and it didn't seem like a bad monster. Could it be that some white radish spirit had possessed it?
The servants of the Lin family assumed that Xiangling was a little timid because she was not used to being in a new place, and they didn't say much. They believed that their mistress's kindness needed to be appreciated gradually.
