Chapter 49: Naughty

49

Thinking of Lady Woo's two children, and then looking at Xiaoruo, so thin that a gust of wind could blow her away, the headman's wife felt an even deeper pity for her and completely trusted her words.

"Auntie, Lady Woo is Qin Fu and Qin Xiaoyue's birth mother; she only ever shelters Qin Fu and Qin Xiaoyue. How could she possibly stop them? It's just that I feel so sorry for my father..." Qin Xiaoruo said, her voice thick with tears.

"You really have it tough," the headman's wife said, her heart aching more for Xiaoruo and her disdain for the Woo Family Mother and Son growing stronger.

"Auntie, I want to ask you for a favor," Qin Xiaoruo said, putting aside her pitiful look and speaking earnestly.

"Xiaoruo, there's no need to be so formal with me. Just tell me what you need help with," the headman's wife replied kindly.
