With the Xiao family gone, he was left all alone.
Even though Xiao Linghan was a powerful minister at that time, respected by everyone, he was also despised by many.
Those who wanted to marry Xiao Linghan all harbored ulterior motives.
He never got married.
In this new life after her rebirth, Wei Jinxiu only wants to find someone who can protect her.
If it weren't for her aunt's appearance, she might have planned to help Xiao Linghan avoid this disaster.
When the time comes, as her benefactor, she can make some requests, and Xiao Linghan will surely agree to them.
But after her aunt appeared, Wei Jinxiu gradually let go of the various hardships and self-torture of her previous life. She found herself again, worked hard to become a better person, and had no time to care about others.
She has too many things to do on a daily basis.
Her aunt did not allow her to slack off in her studies. Even though she was pretending to be dead to recover from her illness, she never missed a single day of her homework.
Jiang Tian specifically hired a maid to keep an eye on her, so Wei Jinxiu couldn't even find a chance to slack off, her mind was full of all kinds of knowledge.
By the time she remembered this incident, the case had already occurred and was the talk of the town.
For her to try to save people again was nothing short of a pipe dream.
Left with no other choice, Wei Jinxiu had to turn to her aunt for help.
Her aunt changed her fate, giving her the courage to pursue her own life, and she had long since given up her vague idea of marrying Xiao Linghan.
It was her aunt who made her aware of the existence of hope.
With more skills and the ability to survive on her own, Wei Jinxiu naturally wouldn't force herself to have any involvement with a man she didn't like at all.
However, if he can make the most of it, Xiao Linghan will definitely be able to bring some benefits to his aunt.
Although my aunt was a prominent figure in the Northwest, she wasn't exactly a popular person when she came to the capital.
Even though she became famous, it wasn't for a very good reason.
Wei Jinxiu knew that it was the mother and daughter who had implicated her, so she wanted to repay them.
But she's just a young girl now, how can she repay the favor? All she can do is push the opportunity to her aunt.
She only remembered a few major events; the rest were trivial matters in the inner quarters of the household.
She would never again have anything to do with the man who ruined her life, so those things just faded away.
As for the capable people she remembered, there were very few.
Xiao Linghan was the greatest benefactor among them.
If his aunt could offer timely help at this critical moment, Xiao Linghan might be spared so much humiliation.
I heard that when he was at his lowest point, he had to wash the feet of the prison guards every day, wipe their feet, and pour out their foot bath water.
He suffered so much that he became somewhat extreme in his actions. If it weren't for the emperor's protection, he might have been impeached and dismissed from his post by the censor.
Wei Jinxiu had vaguely heard that Xiao Linghan was an outstanding person. Even if he hadn't suffered so much inexplicable humiliation, he could have become a pillar of society. It's just that no one gave him the opportunity.
In this way, once his aunt extends a helping hand to him, she will surely become his great benefactor.
He was always grateful and remembered even the commoner who gave him a steamed bun on his way to exile. Later, when he became successful, he returned a hundred taels of gold and gave the person land.
If his aunt were to lend him a hand now, he might be rewarded handsomely in the future.
The capital is about to descend into chaos, and the Northwest will not be peaceful for long either. If Xiao Linghan follows the route to the Northwest to lead troops into battle, he will be able to ensure his aunt's safety.
