Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress-Chapter 2003 - 2011: A Chance Encounter with My Older Sister (Part 3)

In the dark, the maiden’s voice was slightly cool, carrying undisguised hatred.

Walking to a table, I sat down on an old chair and said, "You have completely broken ties with them to help me. Don’t you think you’re being reckless? Aren’t you afraid you bet on the wrong person? What if you helped me, but I can’t protect you? What would you do then?"

She sat down on the chair opposite me and said calmly, "Since I was a child, I’ve never done anything without certainty. From the first moment I saw you, I knew you could save us, so that’s why I took a risk to help you."

As she just sat down, the chair creaked, seemingly barely able to support her small body’s weight, evident it was dilapidated.

Hearing her trust in me so much, an unexplainable happiness arose in my heart, and I said straightforwardly, "Speak then, how do you want me to save you?" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Third Miss said, "It’s simple. I will prove they indeed mixed the Fragrance of Temptation with pear account fragrance to scheme against you. You can then demand Dong Wenguang to remove us siblings from the family registry. From then on, my younger brother and I will have nothing to do with the Dong Mansion, never see each other until death. Also, there’s Nanny Zhang. She’s our babysitter. We’ve survived till now thanks to Nanny Zhang protecting us desperately, so we must take her away too."

She showed such concern for an old nanny yet directly mentioned Prince Consort Dong’s name, not even calling him father, clearly showing she hated that convenient dad extremely, eager to sever ties with them immediately, never see each other until death.

For me, this matter isn’t difficult. If I get the concrete evidence of their scheme against me, no matter how tough it is, I’ll definitely force them to agree.

However, I’m not sure how this Third Miss will live after severing ties with the Dong Mansion, bringing along a younger brother and an old nanny. Although this isn’t my concern, I feel quite favorable towards this girl and asked an extra question.

Third Miss said indifferently, "I can make perfumes and over ten different types of rouge with various effects. With this craftsmanship, supporting my younger brother and Nanny Zhang shouldn’t be an issue."

I said, "Isn’t your maternal grandparents’ house in the capital? When I return to the capital, I can take you, your siblings, and the master-servant trio back together. With elders to care for you, it’s better than a young woman struggling alone outside. Besides, the human heart in this world is sinister. If you and your siblings are outside, you will certainly be targeted."

She was silent for a while, then softly said, "No need. My entire maternal family unfortunately died in the earth dragon turnover in the capital over ten years ago. I have no relatives in the capital, so what difference does it make whether I return or stay?"

However, I didn’t think so, "I believe that even if you don’t have relatives in the capital, it is far safer than here. This way, after leaving the Dong Mansion, Princess Zhao Qing will certainly retaliate against your siblings. If they have malicious intentions, wouldn’t the three of you be fish meat on a platter, at their mercy?"

Third Miss sighed and said, "When my mother was killed by her, Dong Guanghui unusually quarreled with her. She agreed to leave us siblings be. Tongzhou is different from the capital; it’s Dong Guanghui’s old home and earth disk. Besides, she has already been disliked by the Emperor and wouldn’t dare to be too arrogant. So, she shouldn’t act against us."

"Your mother was killed by her? Are you sure?"

I looked at her in surprise, becoming even more curious about this girl. This young girl seemed to be only about thirteen or fourteen years old, a stage when impulsiveness is common, yet she could face the enemy who killed her mother without changing her expression, even pretending nothing had happened and calling her mother, showing utmost respect and filial piety. Truly, she was extremely enduring.
