NovelEnglishChapter 108: The Death of Nanny Gui (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Nanny Gui, it seems like you really see me as a hope.” Shen Miao said worriedly, “But how should I save you? In this mansion, is there anyone who will listen to me? What ability do I have to defy the orders of the people of the east courtyard?”
“No, Miss will definitely have a way.” Nanny Gui was anxious when she heard that. Although she knew that what Shen Miao said made sense, in the entire Shen family, the second and third branches were just friends on the surface. Shen Xin and his wife were not in the capital all year round, so it was impossible for Shen Miao to be of any use alone. However, everyone had a desire to live. The only person Nanny Gui could hold on to now was Shen Miao, and she was unwilling to give up. She said, “Miss, you can beg Old Madam. If you really can’t, you can write a letter to your father and ask him to write a letter to the mansion. They won’t disobey your father.”

Shen Miao chuckled and shook her head. She looked at her and said slowly, “Father can indeed save you, but why should he?”
Nanny Gui was stunned.
“Why should he go out of his way to save a servant?” Her voice seemed to be filled with sarcasm. Under the dim light, she did not seem to care about the person in front of her at all.
Nanny Gui panicked. She did not expect Shen Miao to say that. She had watched Shen Miao grow up. A few days ago, Shen Miao was cold to her because she was throwing a tantrum. Nanny Gui knew that Shen Miao was soft-hearted, and that day at the Wolong Temple, they even had a friendly conversation. It was obvious that Shen Miao still valued her. Why did she change her mind now?
Could it be that someone said something to Shen Miao? Nanny Gui thought to herself that it must be Gu Yu and Jingzhe. They had always liked to go against her. Now that she was in confinement, those two girls must have said something to Shen Miao.

For so many years, your parents are often not around, so we relied on each other…” At this point, she even choked, as if she was extremely sad.” You also told me last time that you remembered when you had a fever at night, I went out in the rain to find a doctor for you… and because of that, I fell ill…”
As Nanny Gui spoke, she glanced at Shen Miao. The first branch of the Shen family, be it Shen Xin, his wife, or Shen Qiu and his sister, all valued friendship. Perhaps this was the inheritance of a military family. Now, Nanny Gui was also hoping to use friendship to make Shen Miao sentimental.
However, in the light, the girl lowered her head and smiled. She did not look moved at all. She said softly, “Nanny Gui, you did treat me well in the beginning. Then, how did my family treat you?”
......
Nanny Gui hesitated for a moment before saying, “Madam and Master treat me very well, and Miss also treats me very well. The monthly salary is very generous. and I’ve never been scolded…”
“Not only that.” Shen Miao continued, “I’ve helped your son and grandson wherever I could. I’ve never treated you as my nanny, but as my family. I trust you and am close to you. Don’t you think so?”
“Yes,” Nanny Gui said. Indeed, it was precisely because Shen Miao was young and easy to coax that she coaxed Shen Miao into submission. Shen Miao would believe whatever she said. In the west courtyard, she could almost be considered half a master.
