Shuang'er said indignantly, "When Nanny and I helped that young lady change her clothes, we saw that her body was covered in injuries, without a single patch of unblemished skin. She must have been abused for a long time."
Nanny Fang sighed. "From the looks of it, she must have thrown herself into the river because she couldn't bear the torment any longer."
Zhi Wan was quite astonished.
'To think that young lady had suffered so much.'
"I don't know what kind of monster would treat a young lady like that," Nanny Fang cursed.
Shuang'er chimed in with a few curses of her own.
After hearing them, Zhi Wan felt unsettled as well.
As the matter was weighing on her mind, Zhi Wan took Nanny Fang and Shuang'er to the young lady's cabin to visit her first thing the next morning after breakfast.
Just as they entered, the young lady was waking up. Thinking Zhi Wan and her maids had saved her, she threw off the covers and was about to get out of bed to kowtow.
