"However, before taking revenge, you must first save your life and have a place to stay."
"How can two ten-year-old girls go to the home of a noble person when they arrive in the prosperous capital city?
I searched around the capital desperately, and the only way was to sell myself to a wealthy family and work as a maid. It wasn't that I didn't want to rise to the top, but my status was too low, so I could only be a maid. I didn't expect that by some strange combination of circumstances, I ended up in the Shangshu Mansion.
To be a maid, you have to sign a living contract. Du Qixuan and I have similar looks, we can read, and we can play music, chess, calligraphy and painting, so we stand out among the girls who applied for the job."
"Actually, I'm not as good as Du Qixuan in getting along with others. Maybe it's because she has been living outside since she was a child, but I have been doted on by my parents for at least ten years. I am a young lady soaked in a honey pot, and I always have an arrogance that cannot be washed away.
, this arrogance makes many people dislike it.”
"Du Qixuan is very able to put down her dignity. She talks nonsense to others and lies to ghosts. She knows how to show weakness in the face of strength and is very tolerant. This is something I am not as good as her. If I could have these advantages of hers, maybe everything would not be the same.
There are so many twists and turns, and the ending is not a thousand arrows. The pride in me has offended many people without knowing it, and the unsettled eyes make people dislike it. Unknowingly, I and I
Du Qixuan's reputation in Shangshu Mansion is very different."
"Du Qixuan's style is that she behaves in a well-behaved manner, knows how to assess the situation, understands the general situation, and is neither arrogant nor impetuous."
"My impetuousness, arrogance, and ambition are all written on my face."
"At that time, because of our good looks, Du Qixuan and I were both sent to the Shangshu's son Yang Yucheng by Madam Shangshu. This Yang Yucheng was the son of Concubine Ye who I exchanged with at the beginning. I didn't expect that we would meet again like this after going round and round. However,
At that time, we didn’t know anyone.”
"When I found out that I could stay with Yang Yucheng, I started racking my brains, hoping to get Yang Yucheng to treat me differently.
It is undeniable that Yang Yucheng is handsome, elegant, and talented. What girl would not be attracted to him? If I say what I feel when facing him, half of it is the admiration hidden in my heart, and the other half is the hope that one day he will be able to win after being favored by him.
Help me investigate the Du family massacre case."
"Maybe I'm too radical. Yang Yucheng doesn't like me like this. Even though I'm getting better and better, I'm far behind Du Qixuan. He prefers Du Qixuan. After learning about this,
I felt slightly sour in my heart, because the other person was also the person I admired in my heart. But compared to avenging my family's destruction, I suppressed this discomfort. What I was thinking at the time was that Yang Yucheng liked Du Qixuan
He just likes her, and as long as she can be favored, he can still let him help investigate the Du family's murder case."
"But Du Qixuan is not me, and what she has in her heart is not revenge. As time goes by, I hear from her again and again that revenge is too difficult. It has been so long, how can we start to investigate it? Why not?
Live well. At that time, I thought Du Qixuan was dazzled by glory and wealth, but I didn’t know that she wasn’t too interested in revenge from the beginning. She was so good at pretending, and always looked so gentle and pleasant, that she didn’t care about revenge at all.
I can’t see clearly what she is thinking.”
"In the fourth year after entering the Shangshu Mansion, Du Qixuan was adopted as an adopted daughter by the Shangshu couple. The reason announced at the time was that the Shangshu couple wanted a daughter and felt that Du Qixuan was gentle, well-behaved and good in everything. Later, much later, I
They knew the real reason was that they found a jade pendant on her body and learned about her life experience. She was the daughter of General Fu. Back then, General Fu was executed as a traitor. They knew there was something hidden in it.
That’s why I adopted this loyal minister’s daughter as my adopted daughter.”
