Xiaolan

14 years old. A lower-ranking court lady in the harem who arrived around the same time as Maomao, she was sold to the harem from her impoverished farming family but does not show any signs of her dark past. She is a girl who treats Maomao without prejudice and interacts with her closely. She likes gossip and sweet treats, and often brings various pieces of information, so Maomao frequently uses sweets to coax information out of her.

After two years, her service period ended, and she left the harem, but thanks to being favored by a lower-ranking consort, she secured a job at the consort's family home and is apparently working there safely. It seems she occasionally sends letters to Maomao, but since the crucial address of her workplace is not written, Maomao herself has not been able to send a reply.
