The Rebirth of an Orphan

In just a few days, the remote courtyard of the Zhao family was once again shrouded in the festive color of bright red. This time, a professional team from Kyoto came to dress up Zhao Xi.

The servants of the Zhao family could not help at all. All of them were men and women in uniform and carrying black leather suitcases, busying around. They all raised their heads proudly, as if they wanted the Zhao family, a group of country people, to see what the style and decency of a big family in a big city was like.

Except for Pingshui and Chunfeng, everyone else in the room was sent outside to wait. Pingshui in the room could only look at these people busy coming in and out, at a loss.

There were three people doing Zhao Xi's makeup alone. The boxes they opened were filled with cosmetics and other things they had never seen before. The one in charge of combing Zhao Xi's hair helped her make a beautiful bun, and the bun was decorated with sashes inlaid with rubies.

The bright red wedding dress was embroidered with gold and silver threads, and the hems of the skirt were all decorated with densely packed precious South China pearls, each of which was very expensive.

Zhao Xihua secretly looked at herself in the mirror, covered in jewels. She was already good-looking, and with such high-end outfits, she looked naturally noble and her aura made people afraid to approach her.

"Miss is really beautiful!" Chunfeng praised timidly.

Pingshui also laughed softly: "Sister looks good in anything she wears, and this set of accessories really suits her."

Zhao Xihua smiled bitterly to herself. The two girls were also very happy. They thought they had become successful and influential this time. They had no idea that the more sudden the wealth, the more frightening it would be.

For a shrewd man like Gu Lun, her status was just a burden to him and could not help him at all. The reason why he came to her now must be that the young lady was having a hard time and thought that she was more resilient or that her life was worthless, but she just didn't want to die.

"Madam, the master is already waiting outside. He said the journey is quite long so it's better to set off early." Aunt Liu, who was sent by the Gu family to take care of her, laughed loudly.

Zhao Xihua nodded, and walked out of the room with the help of Pingshui and Chunfeng. Outside the yard were all people from the Gu family. It seemed that the Gu family was marrying off their daughter, and the Zhao family had no say in it.

This time, the daughter of the Zhao family was going to marry far away in Kyoto. The format of the wedding was somewhat different from the previous one in Yuncheng. Zhao Xihua first went to the main hall to bid farewell to her parents and Zhao family relatives.

Then they got on the car and headed to Kyoto under the escort of Gu Lun's wedding procession. After arriving in Kyoto, they went directly to the Gu family compound and then held the wedding ceremony.

Zhao Xihua walked into the main hall, which was already full of people. In addition to Zhao Yan and the first wife, people from the third and fifth rooms were also there. Even Master Zhao Er, who rarely stayed in Yuncheng, came back. Except for Master Zhao Wu, who was in the army and could not come back, everyone was there.

The prince of the Gu family in Kyoto was getting married, and no one from the Zhao family dared to be absent. Even from the Sun family, not only Sun Xiao came, but even Old Lady Sun had to come and see.

A flower shed was built outside the main hall, and prominent figures in Yuncheng were invited to watch the ceremony. Everyone wanted to see what the prince of the Gu family, who had long been talked about in Kyoto, looked like.

Gu Lun's father was married to Gu Lun's mother by Gu Lun's grandfather. Later, he fell in love with a mistress and abandoned Gu Lun's pregnant mother and divorced her mother. It was also because of this reason that Gu Lun's mother died of depression very early. Since then, Gu Lun has always had a bad relationship with his father. He is unwilling to recognize that father and is even more unwilling to return to the Gu family.

But after the mistress came to power, she only gave birth to three daughters and no sons. Seeing that Grandpa Gu Lun was getting old, the candidate for the heir to the Gu family had to be decided.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Gu actually adopted a boy from the Gu family and even assaulted Old Master Gu. Only then did Gu Lun agree to his grandfather's request and returned to the Gu family and officially became the heir of the Gu family.

Gu Lun, who had been hiding his real name before, suddenly revealed his identity. The whole of Kyoto was shocked. It was really surprising that this rebellious prince refused the marriage proposals of the daughters of wealthy families in Kyoto and married the fourth daughter of the Zhao family from small Yuncheng.

Both of them were people who were at the center of controversy, so of course they were very controversial. However, Gu Lun's status was too noble, and those who came to watch the ceremony were all very curious, but they did not dare to point fingers to their faces.

When Zhao Xihua walked into the main hall, everyone held their breath as they looked at the stunning woman in the sunlight. She was dressed in such elegance and grace, with an air of natural nobility that was compelling.

The eldest wife's face was gloomy. She didn't expect that this woman had such great luck. She could get up even after falling into the dust.

Except for Zhao Ziqin, the other sisters of the Zhao family all had complicated expressions. They didn't know whether to cry or laugh. Why was this unfortunate orphan so lucky?

Everyone had their own thoughts, and for a moment the atmosphere in the main hall was very awkward.

Deng Xiao, who was watching coldly from the side, could not help but sneer. These people from the Zhao family were really weird. It was obviously a great fortune for their family to be able to marry into the Gu family in Kyoto, but why did everyone look like their parents had died?

So he looked at Gu Lun who was standing aside. He was also wearing a set of gorgeous red clothes. The red color set off his extraordinary handsome face, and the evil aura on his body seemed even stronger.

Deng Xiao saw Gu Lun glance at him indifferently, and that look immediately made Deng Xiao feel a little creepy, as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake. This was not ordinary, those cunning guys in the Gu family were no match for him.

After receiving Gu Lun's signal, he deliberately coughed, then stood up and said with a smile: "The mountain is high and the road is long, please say goodbye to your parents, and we will set off as soon as possible."

Zhao Xihua's eyes moved slightly, and a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of her mouth. She bowed to Zhao Yan and the eldest wife and said, "My daughter will say goodbye now. Please take care of yourselves, father and mother."

After saying that, he didn't want to look at the two of them anymore. Zhao Yan's lips moved, but he felt a little panicked in his heart. This girl was now completely out of his control, and he didn't know how she would deal with the Zhao family and him after she knew the truth.

"Hua'er, take care of yourself when you get to Kyoto. No matter what happens in the future, remember that you were once a child who grew up in the Zhao family."

After a long while, Zhao Xihua nodded: "Don't worry, father. I will remember everything the Zhao family has done for me and will never forget it."

Then she walked to the Third Madam who was standing on the side and bowed. The Third Madam looked at the girl in front of her and became more cautious. She smiled and said, "Hua'er, take good care of yourself when you go to Kyoto. Third Aunt has prepared a gift for you and gave it to Pingshui to keep."

Zhao Xihua felt warm in her heart. If her guess was correct, it was the money she had prepared. She was now accepting this favor. Huichuntang had not made any money yet, and this money could be considered a solution to her urgent needs.
