At this moment, the housekeeper looked at the four newly brought-in young girls. Two were sold willingly by poor families.
The other two were purchased through special channels.
The housekeeper had a fierce expression. She glanced over the four new girls; the oldest appeared to be ten, and the youngest seemed only five.
No matter how old they were, they all trembled with fear under the housekeeper's gaze, shrinking back timidly.
However, one little girl was an exception.
This little girl looked like a tiger cub, her big eyes watery, and she didn't show much timidity. Instead, she curiously looked around, not seeming very scared.
Seeing this scene, the housekeeper became interested.
*Such naturally brave girls, when properly trained, become excellent sources of income.* Moreover, although this little one was very young, her features were delicate, indicating she'd grow up to be a beauty.
Thinking of this, the housekeeper asked, "Where did this little one come from?"
