The Rebirth of an Orphan
Chapter 40 Breaking off relations with the Zhao family
Zhao Xihua smiled coldly and said, "Since the Zhao family can no longer accommodate me, please keep your promise and drive me out of the Zhao family and completely sever ties with them."
"Fourth girl, your uncle just said those words in anger, why are you making such a fuss about it?"
The eldest wife also knew that if Zhao Xihua was really kicked out of the Zhao family and severed ties with the family, she would definitely be despised by others. After all, all the inheritance of the fourth house was under the name of their eldest house, and Zhao Xihua was fostered under their name for this reason.
If they were really driven out now, they would probably be drowned by the saliva of the wealthy families in Yuncheng.
The Zhao family members standing by didn't understand what the fourth girl was going to do. If she really cut off her relationship with the Zhao family, it would not be good for her. Without the status of the fourth young lady, even if she went to the Sun family to get married, they might not be interested in her.
But Zhao Yan became panicked. If the fourth girl left the Zhao family because of this matter and the news got to the Sun family, they would definitely think that the Zhao family was deliberately showing disrespect to the Sun family.
The fourth young lady who was engaged to the eldest young master was almost beaten to death. She also called the eldest young master an adulterer. It seems that the good days of the Zhao family are over.
Zhao Yan hurriedly said, "Hua'er, what nonsense are you talking about? You are the daughter of the Zhao family, how can you say such nonsense?"
For the first time, Mrs. Zhao lowered her status and spoke kindly to Zhao Xihua: "Fourth girl, your uncle shouldn't have hit you today. It was his fault, but you didn't explain it to us clearly before, right? Then I will apologize to you on behalf of your uncle, okay?"
Mrs. Zhao's attitude is unprecedented. Logically speaking, no matter who it is, no one will continue to be in a stalemate.
But Zhao Xihua looked at Old Lady Zhao and said, "Grandma, you just heard it clearly. The Zhao family doesn't have a daughter as shameless as me. He told me to get out of the Zhao family. Since that's the case... I don't want to make him angry anymore. If I get angry, I'll be unfilial. Just let me leave."
Zhao Xihua's words left the old lady speechless. What Zhao Yan said before was too cruel, but if she really left the Zhao family, wouldn't she completely offend the Sun family?
Zhao Yan was filled with shame and anger. He finally understood that Zhao Xihua was deliberately provoking him to make him angry and then say such decisive words.
He didn't expect that this niece, who had never received his attention since she was a child, would become so powerful.
He was about to say something else, but Zhao Xihua rushed to speak, "Grandma, I'm in so much pain right now, I feel very uncomfortable, I don't want to talk anymore, just let me take Pingshui to the hospital to treat the injury first."
"Doctor Qin is here, let him help you." Old Mrs. Zhao tried her best to keep him.
"No need, I will take her to the hospital. Just let the fourth lady and the girl leave with me." Sun Xiao, who had been silent, spoke up.
Zhao Xihua looked at Sun Xiao with gratitude. In her previous life, she was very scared when he lay in bed motionless every day. After all, it was because of him that she had to endure that eternal nightmare.
But in this life, it was this person who saved her from suffering, and she had mixed emotions.
Pingshui was called into the room by Sun Xiao's men. She saw Zhao Xihua's painful expression after struggling for a long time, and she was so sad that she hugged Zhao Xihua and cried: "Sister, does it hurt a lot?"
Sun Xiao, who was watching from the side, inexplicably felt some sympathy for the two sisters, even a little bit of heartache, which surprised even himself.
After coming out of Zhao's house, Sun Xiao had someone help Zhao Xihua into his car, and asked Pingshui and the others to take another car.
After Zhao Xihua got in the car, although the pain in her back was somewhat numb, she insisted on thanking Sun Xiao: "Thank you, thank you, young master, for saving me."
Sun Xiao poured a cup of hot tea from a thermos cup and handed it to Zhao Xihua, "You're welcome, drink some tea first, and then we'll leave."
Zhao Xihua took a sip of the hot tea. Her body seemed to stop shivering and her heart gradually warmed up.
Zhao Xihua suddenly remembered the most important thing. She calmed down and said seriously, "I have asked Wang Lin to send you the cup. You can still use the cup to drink water from now on, but don't take ginseng or other nutritious supplements. If you want to supplement your nutrition, just drink some chicken soup or some high-protein food every day. The most important thing is not to drink tea from the cup, only boiled water. When I find a way, I can help you detoxify completely."
Sun Xiao was slightly stunned and looked at Zhao Xihua's pretty yet pale face. The determination in her eyes made him a little dazed.
Zhao Xihua thought he didn't believe her and said hurriedly, "There's nothing wrong with the teapot, it's just that the cup is made of ivy, which has many good effects on the human body, but it can't be put together with supplements like ginseng and deer antlers, because it's highly toxic. Most people wouldn't even think of that."
Zhao Xihua took a breath and continued, "This was told to me by a skilled master. I cannot tell you who this master is. You also know my current situation. I would never dare to harm you. You might as well try it as I say. If there is any problem, I will give you my life as compensation."
Although Sun Xiao didn't say anything, he was actually somewhat touched. He slowly took out the folding fan from his chest pocket and handed it to Zhao Xihua: "This is what I wanted to bring when I left just now. Now I return it to its original owner."
Zhao Xihua took the folding fan with trembling hands, and her eyes became moist. "Who gave you this?"
Zhao Xihua didn't know what to say. How could she say something that involved her mother's privacy? In fact, she didn't understand why her mother kept such a folding fan with love poems written on it, and she knew it was a man's thing just by looking at the handwriting.
She lowered her head and whispered, "Yes...it's an old friend."
Sun Xiao listened and smiled faintly: "I just asked casually, mainly because I saw that the words on it were well written, so I was a little interested. I wonder if there is a chance to introduce me to him?"
Zhao Xihua smiled bitterly. She also wanted to introduce him, but she had never seen him herself, so how could she introduce him?
The wound on her back was becoming more and more painful, and she was tired and hungry, so her face became even paler.
Although Sun Xiao had many doubts, he also knew that now was not the time to ask too many questions.
He was just about to speak when Zhao Xihua fainted unexpectedly, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
Alas, this girl is too miserable.
He had no choice but to take off his windbreaker and put it on Zhao Xihua. Ye Ying, who was driving in front, asked, "Master, are you going to the hospital? Or are you going to the fourth young lady's place?"
"If you can't go to the hospital, go to Yulin Road." Sun Xiao said.
