The Rebirth of an Orphan

There was a sound of unlocking the door, and then the door was pushed open from the outside, and dust suddenly flew up in the room.

Zhao Xihua was about to rush over with a stick in hand, but when he looked closely, he saw that it was a little boy of about ten years old who was staggering backwards. Zhao Xihua quickly stopped and the stick in his hand dropped.

"Tell me, what is this place? Why are you trying to hurt me?" Zhao Xihua grabbed the boy's arm and asked.

But the boy seemed to be frightened by Zhao Xihua's appearance. He struggled to break free from Zhao Xihua's hand, and then his hands kept waving. He shouted in his mouth but couldn't say a word. It turned out that he was deaf-mute.

She knew she couldn't get anything out of the question, so she angrily pushed the boy to the ground. The little boy was really scared, so he got up and ran away.

Zhao Xihua looked around again and found that he was in an abandoned Taoist temple, which was already empty.

She could only stagger down the mountain along a mountain path in front of the Taoist temple entrance. Unexpectedly, when she was halfway there, she heard many people shouting in the distance, and they were actually calling her name.

She hurriedly walked towards the direction of the voices and soon heard the voices of Pingshui and Chunfeng. The two girls saw her running towards them with fear on their faces.

She looked up and saw Uncle Lin and the others were there too. Then another group of people came, from the Sun and Zhao families. Walking in the front was actually her adopted brother Zhao Chenyang.

When Zhao Chenyang saw Zhao Xihua, his expression changed and he said in a very concerned voice: "Fourth sister, fourth sister, are you okay? How could this happen? Did you see the thief who kidnapped you?"

Zhao Xihua looked at Zhao Chenyang in disbelief. What did he mean by someone who kidnapped her? Was she kidnapped?

A girl like me was abducted to an abandoned Taoist temple on the mountain on her wedding day. Would the Sun family still accept her? But Zhao Xihua now appeared outside the mountains with disheveled hair instead of at the wedding, so it was useless to say anything.

What happened yesterday was so sudden that everyone was stunned and caught off guard.

Zhao Chenyang looked at Zhao Xihua and said, "Fourth sister, go back first. I will definitely help you catch the person who hurt you. Don't worry."

Zhao Xihua needed to figure out what had happened, so she ignored Zhao Chenyang and let Pingshui and Chunfeng take her home.

Back at the Zhao family, Pingshui and Chunfeng helped Zhao Xihua bathe with tears in their eyes. Zhao Xihua had been freezing on the mountain for a whole day and now she was soaking in the steaming hot bath. She felt her body warm up a little bit and asked Pingshui: "What happened?"

Pingshui burst into tears: "This is too much bullying. I want to kill them. Is that still called human?"

Chunfeng also kept crying as she said, "Yesterday, the young lady's wedding car was replaced by someone else. The young lady was dragged to another place, and the young lady was replaced in the wedding car."

"Zhao Ziqin?" Zhao Xihua sneered, "The eldest wife is very calculating, but it was also father's idea, right?"

Not one person is brave enough to replace the first wife at the Sun family's wedding, but I guess there is someone in the Sun family who is willing to do so.

It seems that there are many people who don't want her to marry into the Sun family, but this method is too dirty.

Zhao Xihua is now very clear that the current situation is not favorable to her. She suddenly disappeared on the wedding day. Her eldest sister was wise enough to marry her off in place of her, saving the reputation of the Sun and Zhao families. But she became the disgraced woman again.

"I want to be alone for a while. You all can go out." Zhao Xihua leaned weakly against the bathtub. Things had already happened. She had to grit her teeth and hold on no matter what. After her rebirth, she didn't care about her face. As long as she could survive, what did face matter?

"Sister," Pingshui's voice was choked with sobs, and she was worried and unwilling to leave.

Zhao Xihua forced a smile and said, "Don't be afraid, I'll be fine. I'm just a little tired and want to rest for a while.

Pingshui and Chunfeng had no choice but to leave the room, but they were still worried, so they just stood guard outside the door.

Zhao Xihua looked at her wrinkled hands after being soaked in hot water and murmured in a low voice: "I've died once, so what am I afraid of?"

After taking a bath, Zhao Xihua slept for a whole day, then locked herself in the room and refused to go out.

Everyone in the Zhao family thought that the fourth young lady was hiding in the house and not coming out to explain because she was too embarrassed to see anyone.

Until the third day, which was the day when the eldest daughter and her husband came back, the Zhao family was filled with joy and excitement. Everyone felt that the fourth daughter was too absurd and that the eldest daughter was more reliable.

Only the small courtyard of Zhao Xihua was so quiet that it was frightening.

Suddenly, the servant beside the eldest wife came over to inform: "Fourth Miss, today is the day when the eldest lady returns home. Now the eldest lady and her husband are here. The eldest wife and the eldest lady ask the fourth lady to go over. After all, the fourth lady is also the legitimate daughter, and it would be inappropriate not to go."

A hint of sarcasm appeared on Zhao Xihua's face. Is Zhao Ziqin coming back to demonstrate?

The servant looked at Zhao Xihua provocatively after he finished speaking. Wasn't this girl very arrogant before? Let's see how she will deal with it today.

Maybe he had waited too long, so he said impatiently, "Give me a definite answer whether Fourth Miss is going or not, so I can go back and report."

"Why are you rushing me?" Pingshui was a straightforward person and immediately got angry: "Is your eldest daughter doing human things? You know what dirty things you have done. Why are you pretending to be so high and mighty here? My sister is not feeling well and won't go."

"Haha, Pingshui, your temper has gotten worse. Do you think you can talk nonsense to the eldest lady? Are you itching for trouble?" As he said that, he was about to go up to Pingshui and slap her in the face.

But her hand did not fall, and was instead caught by Zhao Xihua, "Who do you think you are? Why are you showing off in front of me? Get out!" The servant looked up at Zhao Xihua and suddenly felt a little scared.

Zhao Xihua then said calmly, "Didn't my elder sister come back just to see me? It's no big deal, Pingshui, help me change my clothes, I want to go see my elder sister and brother-in-law."

The servant's face was a little embarrassed. He had just followed the eldest lady's instructions and tried to force the fourth lady to come if she didn't come.

Zhao Xihua changed into a pink pleated skirt, which, paired with her long, smooth black hair, made her look exceptionally pretty and eye-catching.

She led Pingshui and the others towards the main hall. As soon as they reached the door of the main hall, they heard Zhao Chishu's voice from behind, "Fourth sister."

Zhao Chishu turned around and looked over. Today was the day when his eldest sister came back home, so the sisters in the family would definitely have to come and deal with the situation.

Zhao Chishu grabbed Zhao Xihua's hand and asked, "I went to see you yesterday, but Pingshui said you were asleep, are you... okay?

Zhao Xihua felt warm in her heart, held her hand and smiled: "Don't worry, I'm fine, it's okay."

"That thing can't be true, right? It's been spreading everywhere in the house, Fourth Sister..."

Zhao Xihua knew that she was really anxious, so she said calmly: "Third sister, seeing is believing, hearing is not. Sometimes what you see may not be true, not to mention what you hear. I will tell you slowly when I have time."
