"Please, Miss Cheng, just one night. I can't go home tonight. Can I pay for the accommodation?"
Seeing that Cheng Yue didn't say anything, Xue Hanyu grabbed Cheng Yue's arms with both hands and begged again.
"Miss Xue, can you tell us why you don't go back? You look like an unmarried girl! You live in the Shen Mansion, and we are just country folk. We dare not challenge the Shen Mansion."
Cheng Yue thought for a moment and said.
Xue Hanyu was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head, then raised it again and said, "Miss Cheng, this elder brother, and the younger brother are all good people. It doesn't matter if I tell you. Could you trouble Miss Cheng to let me sit down and talk? My feet hurt."
Cheng Yue helped her sit on a big rock, and then the three of them stood by to listen to the reason why the girl did not return home at night.
"I'm originally from the capital. I lost my mother when I was young, and my father married a stepmother. I was young and in poor health, so my grandparents were worried that I would be bullied by my stepmother, so they negotiated with my father and had me brought to Jiangnan. From the age of three, I lived with my grandparents in Jiangnan with my eldest uncle's family."
"My grandfather passed away when I was ten. By then, my health had gradually improved, but my uncle had no sisters. My grandmother was reluctant to let me go back to Beijing, so she asked me to continue living with her. My father didn't send anyone to take me back to Beijing."
"Last year, my eldest uncle fell ill and passed away. My grandmother didn't get along well with my eldest aunt, but she didn't want to embarrass my eldest cousin, so she brought me to my second uncle's home in Taoyuan County. The Chen Mansion in the city is my second uncle's home. My grandmother and I arrived in Taoyuan County last month. Since we got here, my grandmother has been in poor health. My second aunt sent my grandmother to stay for two days at the Wanfo Temple in the north of the city. I was going to go too, but I was not feeling well, so I stayed in the mansion."
"My second uncle sent my second aunt and grandmother away yesterday. He happened to have something to do in the capital, so, for the past two days, it's just my cousin and I at home."
"My cousin, he..."
Xue Hanyu couldn't continue talking here.
"Your cousin is a piece of shit. He coveted you, but you didn't want him to. So, he wanted to take advantage of the fact that you two were the only ones in the house and make it a done deal. He wanted to marry you off to a cousin, right?"
Cheng Yue combined Cheng Jinxing's words just now and helped Xue Hanyu to say what she couldn't say anymore.
"Yes. Miss Cheng, my second uncle will be back tomorrow, so could you let me stay at your house tonight?"
Xue Hanyu nodded and pleaded.
"No, Miss Xue, you can avoid this matter temporarily, but you can't avoid it forever. If you don't plan to return to your own home and live with your uncle, you will definitely see your cousin every day. Why don't you tell your grandmother and second aunt about this? Doesn't your grandmother love you? Even your second aunt wants you to be her daughter-in-law. Your grandmother won't force you, right?"
Cheng Yue said.
She was very ashamed of such things, and besides, close relatives could not marry.
If it were anyone else, she wouldn't care so much, but after the two times she met Xue Hanyu, she had a good impression of her. Although she didn't want to be her good sister immediately, she also wanted to persuade her and didn't want to see her so pitiful, like a homeless person.
We are all women.
