The Rebirth of an Orphan
Chapter 31 Diamonds are too expensive
Zhao Xihua was holding the box and walking towards her own courtyard. Unexpectedly, a voice came from behind, "Fourth Miss, wait for me."
Zhao Xihua stopped and turned around to see that Sun Cong had already walked to her side. He was tall to begin with, and if he bent down a little, he would almost be next to Zhao Xihua's ear.
"Fourth Miss, have we met before?"
Sure enough, this Sun Cong is really a sinister and cunning person. She must not let him see anything. She smiled slightly and said, "Young Master Sun, you are joking. I have never seen you before. Sorry, I have something else to do. I will leave first."
Sun Cong looked at Zhao Xihua's back as she hurriedly left, and always felt that something was wrong. It seemed that this woman needed to be investigated carefully.
Zhao Xihua returned to her own courtyard and happened to see Pingshui asking someone to help move the purchased medicinal herbs into the courtyard. Zhao Xihua took a look and felt very satisfied, so he gave the two pieces of clothing to Pingshui.
Pingshui tried to refuse for a long time, saying it didn't make sense for her to wear new clothes while her sister didn't. But it wasn't until Zhao Xihua said that she would buy them for herself when she had time that Pingshui finally accepted the clothes.
Pingshui closed the door tightly according to Zhao Xihua's arrangement. She sorted the medicinal herbs outside and kept an eye on the door.
Zhao Xihua opened the box and took out the diamonds one by one. When she touched the bottom, she found there was indeed a layer. When she picked out the layer, she saw the cup that Sun Xiao had used before.
It seems that Sun Xiao still believes in her. The diamonds are just a deceptive reward. This young master Sun is quite scheming.
She took out the teacup and put it into a special package she had made, then placed the diamonds one by one into the box, and then called Pingshui in.
After Pingshui quickly entered the room, Zhao Xihua handed her the diamond box and said, "Go out for me now. Don't go through the front door, go through the back door. When you go out the back door, you will see the housekeeper of the Sun family who came to our house today."
Zhao Xihua knew that Sun Xiao gave her the diamond just to test her depth, so she had to respond. After all, the cup was of great importance. Sun Xiao was also very smart. He used the diamond to cover up the truth and made her most suspicious brother give it to her. This was also the best cover-up.
It is estimated that Uncle Zhong should be a relatively important person around Sun Xiao. If I am not mistaken, he should still be waiting outside. When the things are delivered, he needs to get her attitude. Should she check or not? Zhao Xihua knows that Uncle Zhong must tell Sun Xiao the answer.
Pingshui was stunned. The Sun family should have left after delivering the gifts, right? How could they still be waiting there?
However, looking at what had happened recently, she also knew that her sister was becoming more and more mysterious and had her own ideas. All she had to do was to help her.
She took the diamond box nervously. She must not make any mistakes with such a valuable item, otherwise she would not even be able to afford the loss with her life.
"Also," Zhao Xihua smiled and said, "Tell the butler to tell the young master that I will investigate the young master's affairs immediately, but this diamond is too valuable. If I keep it, I am afraid I will die before I can use it. If the young master really wants to thank me, please help me secretly buy a house. It is not convenient for me to do these things now."
Pingshui took the things and walked out quickly, and came back in less than half an hour with a black briefcase.
"Sister, sister," Pingshui was very excited, her face flushed.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Take your time," Pingshui handed the black briefcase to Zhao Xihua and whispered, "I followed my sister's instructions and went out through the back door. Sure enough, I saw someone standing outside the house. It was the housekeeper I saw before."
"What did he say?" Zhao Xihua asked.
Pingshui said hurriedly, "When he saw that my sister returned the diamonds, he said a lot of compliments. I didn't quite understand, but he meant very well to my sister. Then he gave me the bag and asked me to give it to my sister. He also said that if my sister had any results, she could go to the store in West Lane to find Mr. Du.
Although Pingshui is a simple-minded person, she has a good memory. She conveyed every word of her conversation with Butler Sun to Zhao Xihua.
Pingshui took a deep breath and said, “That person also said that since my sister returned the diamond, the things in the bag must be kept safe.
Zhao Xihua nodded and opened the briefcase in front of him. It turned out to be a real estate certificate for a 150-square-meter duplex and a bank card. A small note under the bank card stated that the amount in the card was 20 yuan.
I was a little surprised to see these paintings by Zhao Xi. I didn’t expect Sun Xiao to be so generous when we first met. It was quite unexpected.
"Pingshui, I heard that you have a fellow villager who works as a porter at the freight station, right? Go find him later and tell him that I need him to help me with something. Ask him to come see me tomorrow and accompany me when you come back."
When Pingshui heard this, her face turned slightly red, and she nodded quickly and left.
In her previous life, Zhao Xihua knew that Pingshui had this fellow villager, and the two of them had a mutual understanding and affection for each other, but later Pingshui followed her to the Sun family, which led to trouble again.
However, she clearly remembered that they were locked in the basement and almost froze to death. It was this fellow villager who secretly sent them some charcoal and food every few days. If it weren't for this kind-hearted young man, they would probably have frozen to death that winter.
Now that Sun Xiao has given her a house, she naturally wants to find a reliable person to help her. After all, there are many things that are not convenient for her to do, and Pingshui is a girl and is not very safe, so many things need to be planned slowly bit by bit.
While Pingshui was out, she went to the small room where the medicinal herbs were kept and started to clean them up. She replaced the herbs that had been destroyed before and also added some rare herbs. It turned out that everything could be done with money.
After she had packed up the herbs in the small pharmacy, she returned to the room, took off her long skirt, and changed into a simple set of clothes. The white shirt on the upper body made her look fresh and pretty, while the jeans on the lower body made her long legs look even straighter and taller.
Pingshui came back at about the same time. Zhao Xihua asked her to go out from the back door first and call two taxis to wait for her at the entrance of an alley not far away. She would arrive soon.
After Pingshui left, Zhao Xihua put the small bag containing the cup on his back and walked out carefully from the back door. Pingshui had already called a car and was waiting at the entrance of the alley not far away. Zhao Xihua looked around vigilantly, then got in the car quickly and asked the driver to close the windows.
After getting in the car, she opened her red lips slightly, and said word by word with a rare firmness in her eyes: "Master, let's go to Ning'an Nursing Home outside the city."
Pingshui was stunned after hearing this. She thought her sister just wanted to go to the street to stroll around and buy something, but she didn't expect that she wanted to go out of the city, to the Ning'an Nursing Home.
Although Ning'an Nursing Home has a nice name, it is not a peaceful place.
