Ji Zhenniang was very pleased after hearing this, but she asked sternly, "Is this your true intention? Do you really want to marry a servant and not wish to be a concubine for the master?"
Xie Huaihua replied, "Madam, I am determined to be a lady housekeeper in the Xie Family, so I only seek to marry a servant of the Xie Family. In the future, as a couple, we will serve the lord and the madam, not wanting to be a concubine."
As she spoke, she raised her hand and took a poisonous oath, "I swear, in this life, I will only marry a servant of the Xie Family. If I have any improper thoughts towards the master, let me be captured by fierce bandits on the westward road and die after suffering endless torment!"
"Huaihua!" Nanny Xie felt heartache and almost shed tears. Even if the girl wanted to show her loyalty, she shouldn't have taken such a poisonous oath.
