Chapter 288 A Woman's Game



Xiao He looked extremely miserable. If Aunt He hadn't recognized his voice first, she would have almost not recognized him.

She walked forward and signaled the guard to open the door. Seeing this, Xiao He hurried forward and grabbed Aunt He, as if she was grabbing a life-saving straw.

"Aunt He, please save me, help me, for the sake of us being relatives. If you don't help me, I will be dead!" Xiao He said with tears streaming down his face, holding Aunt He's hand tightly and refusing to let go.

Aunt He was also frightened by Xiao He's behavior. "Xiao He, what happened to you? Didn't you go back to your hometown? Why are you back again? And you were beaten like this?"

Although Aunt He was disheartened by Xiao He's actions, it had been so long since the incident, and she was a soft-hearted person. Furthermore, with Xiao He now so injured, she temporarily forgot her anger towards him.

Facing Aunt He's questioning, Xiao He was at a loss for words. He just grabbed her hand and cried, gasping for breath. "Aunt He, please let me in. I'll tell you... please save me, please help me..."

Seeing Xiao He's miserable appearance, Aunt He could only nod and said to the guard, "She is a distant relative of mine. She used to work at the mansion. She is injured now. I will take her inside to apply some medicine or something."

The current security guards are all new, and they don’t know Xiao He. According to the instructions from above, they cannot let anyone in easily.

But the one who is speaking now is Aunt He. She is the housekeeper of the Wei family and a person trusted by the master, so there is definitely no problem with her.

In that case, there should be no problem letting in the people she asked for.

After all, anyone could harm the eldest young master, but Aunt He was absolutely impossible.

Thinking of this, the guard agreed to let Xiao He follow Aunt He into the Wei family mansion.

Returning to the mansion he had not seen for a long time and looking at everything familiar, Xiao He felt mixed emotions.

Especially when he saw Aunt He who had now been promoted to housekeeper, Xiao He felt even more annoyed.

If she had not been bewitched and listened to Wu Mei's words and helped Wu Mei, she would not have been kicked out of the Wei family by Ye Qin. Then, with the friendship of taking care of the eldest young master, her status in the Wei family would definitely rise.

Even if he couldn't be a housekeeper, he would definitely be able to walk around the entire mansion like Zhu Xiang's relatives did.

How could it be like now, where my life is held in the hands of others...

Thinking of this, Xiao He hated Ye Qin even more.

If that woman hadn't spoken up, she wouldn't have been kicked out!

After all, Xiao He was driven away by himself. Although most of the servants in the Wei family have been replaced, there are still a small number of them left. It would be somewhat embarrassing for those people to see Xiao He like this.

So after Aunt He brought Xiao He into the Wei family mansion, she took her directly to her room.

After all, the most important thing is that Aunt He is afraid that Ye Qin will see Xiao He.

Seeing how Xiao He helped Wu Mei frame Ye Qin, she would definitely be unhappy when she saw Xiao He.

Xiao He looked at Aunt He's now oversized room, which was no less than the master's room, and was amazed. "Aunt He, are you living here now?"

"Yeah." Aunt He responded lightly and walked to Xiao He with the medicine box.

"Oh my God, it's thousands of times better than the small building we lived in before!" Xiao He continued to exclaim in amazement.

Aunt He took out cotton balls, alcohol gauze, etc. and said, "Come here, I'll apply medicine on you."

"Oh." Xiao He walked over and let Aunt He apply medicine to him.

"You haven't told me how you got injured like this? You asked me to save you, to help you. How can I save you, how can I help you?"

When Aunt He mentioned this, Xiao He shuddered, as if remembering something, and started crying again. "The news that I was kicked out of the Wei family spread back to my hometown a long time ago. Everyone laughed at me when I went back. My parents wanted me to get married, and they introduced me to an old bachelor who was more than 20 years older than me. I didn't want to get married, so I ran away. I worked in a restaurant, and then I accidentally offended someone. They beat me and wanted to kill me. I had no choice. I was so scared, so I ran away and came here to find you."

Listening to Xiao He's words, Aunt He frowned, "Letting you marry such an old man? What was Sister Fen thinking? How old are you?"

Xiao He lowered his head. "My age is not considered old in the city, but in my hometown, it's the right age to talk about marriage. I was kicked out and have a bad reputation. The good families in my hometown don't look down on me. Only that old bachelor is willing to..." As he spoke, Xiao He's tears began to fall. He begged Aunt He, "Aunt He, you are the only one who can help me at this time. Please keep me and let me continue to stay in the Wei family. As long as I stay here, no one outside can bully me. This time I promise to do a good job and will not cause you any trouble or do anything bad again."

Hearing Xiao He's request, Aunt He flatly refused, "No, you were driven away by the young lady. The Wei family would not keep you if you did that."

Xiao He looked at Aunt He in despair. "Aunt He, you watched me grow up. If you don't help me, no one else can. I can't stay in the city anymore, so I have no choice but to return to my hometown and marry that forty-year-old bachelor. Aunt He, can you bear to let me marry a man like that?"

Aunt He hesitated...

Looking at Xiao He, who is as young as a flower, if she really marries an old bachelor, wouldn't it be equivalent to ruining the rest of her life?

But……

After a long while, Aunt He finally sighed, "Okay, you stay here first. I'll talk to the young lady and see what she decides. If the young lady doesn't want to keep you, I can't keep you either."
