Chapter 319 Bullying
"Let me meet Zhaodi again and explain everything to her, and then I'll leave willingly."
Mrs. Cai tried to use her little bit of affection as a threat.
Old Master Huo first glanced at Chen Zhuyi, and seeing that she didn't seem to care at all, he nodded and agreed.
Su Yunya wanted to take the responsibility, but Chen Zhuyi had already seen through her intention and said first: "Grandpa, Mom, let me handle this matter."
She knows a lot, so it's only natural to give it to her.
Huo Jinzhi put a little more strength into his fingertips, and Chen Zhuyi shook his hand back, smiling: "I can handle it, don't you believe me?"
Seeing that she had said it to this extent, no one cared whether to believe it or not, so they just let it go.
Even if Chen Zhu wants to poke a hole in the sky, their family will face it together!
The warm gazes from the people around her softened Chen Zhuyi's heart, and she became more determined to protect this home.
The next morning, after breakfast, Mrs. Cai couldn't wait to go to the hospital with Chen Zhuyi.
Jinhua hadn't received any news for the past two days and was taking care of Zhaodi. The friendship between girls always develops quickly. When Chenzhu went in, he saw the two of them huddled together and whispering.
Zhaodi had a bright smile on her face, completely different from her cautious and timid self of the past.
"Why are you here?" Zhaodi asked coldly, her smile disappearing completely.
Chen Zhuyi quickly held her hand and said, "Don't be afraid. Mrs. Cai is here to make things clear with you today. From now on, you will no longer be bound by others."
These words were like a life-saving straw that a drowning person could grasp at with all his might. She looked up in surprise, tears rolling down her face.
"How could such selfish people like them let me go?" Zhaodi murmured to herself, and could only hold on to Chen Zhuyi tightly, begging for her help.
Mrs. Cai had a stern face and wanted to curse her, but when she saw Chen Zhu's warning look, she didn't dare to say anything too harsh.
"You are my granddaughter after all. It's just that because you are a girl, not many people at home pay attention to you. But you are my child after all. How can I treat you badly?"
Zhaodi didn't respond. Wasn't it enough that she had been mistreated since she was a child?
She even sold her admission letter just to get some money for her family. She was deeply ashamed of such a family!
"Don't be so angry. You are where you are today because we raised you with all our heart and soul. Now that you feel you have a little support, you want to abandon your family?"
Mrs. Cai wanted to pull Zhaodi away, but she anticipated it and slapped Mrs. Cai's hand away.
That crisp voice made Zhaodi's frown relax a little, and she found her voice again: "Grandma, can I break off all ties with the Cai family from now on?"
Even at this time, her tone when talking to others was still negotiable.
As a bystander, Chen Zhuyi felt very sad when he heard it, and could only stroke Zhaodi's little hand full of calluses.
She is obviously a young girl in the prime of her life, but she has worn herself out and looks more mature than those married women.
"I've thought it through. I don't want you relatives anymore." Zhaodi felt the warmth and became bolder, speaking word by word.
"From childhood to adulthood, I have already sacrificed a lot for you. You raised me, but since I was five years old, I have been supporting the whole family."
"I go to cut grass for the pigs before dawn. When there's no big pot for cooking, I boil water for you, wash dishes, do laundry, and cook. I also do all the housework."
"I don't feel like I owe you anything. You haven't been very kind to me, always beating and scolding me, and even trying to sell me out. I've had enough!"
After saying this, her breathing became heavier, but she felt so good!
I have been holding these words in my heart for so many years, and it is finally time to express them.
Seeing Mrs. Cai's dumbfounded expression, Zhaodi felt more relieved. She wanted to study hard, go to school, and then change her name. She even gave up her surname and wanted to take her benefactor's surname.
"You little bitch, you're really outrageous! I've been a little tolerant of you, but you're so eager to get ahead of me. I might as well just beat you to death!"
Mrs. Cai cursed sharply, jumped up and rushed over.
Chen Zhuyi was on guard, but he was no match for Mrs. Cai who suddenly attacked. He was pushed aside and bumped into the bedside table.
Mrs. Cai jumped onto Zhaodi, turned her fist into a palm, and slapped her granddaughter in the face.
Her eyes were gloomy and she struck harder. A layer of crimson instantly appeared on Zhaodi's little face, which looked scary!
"If you want to escape from home, then spit out everything you've eaten and drunk over the years. I'm giving you some color, and you really want to open a dyeing factory!"
Chen Zhu held the lower back that was hit and watched as all this happened in a flash!
Zhaodi is not a soft-hearted person, especially after listening to Jinhua's words recently, she has come to understand more and more that only by relying on herself can she truly stand up.
She took the opportunity without hesitation and pressed Mrs. Cai under her. She didn't even bother to slap her and put her hands on Mrs. Cai's neck.
The old woman's strength was still incomparable to that of the young people these days. Mrs. Cai's eyes rolled back and she almost fainted.
But even so, she was still making trouble.
"Are you okay?" Huo Jinzhi rushed in and supported Chen Zhuyi first.
"Don't kill anyone!" Chen Zhuyi stabilized his body and shouted loudly.
These words were like thunder from a clear sky, bringing Zhaodi's originally scattered mind back to normal. She immediately let go of his hand, jumped off the bed, shook her head helplessly, and kept repeating it.
"I didn't mean to kill anyone, I didn't..."
Years of resentment erupted in one day, and she failed to completely strangle Mrs. Cai, which showed that Zhaodi had a gentle character.
She curled up in the corner, staring blankly into the distance.
When Chen Zhu saw her attitude, she felt the thorn in her heart pierce deeper. She slowly walked over and hugged Zhaodi.
"It's okay, everything will pass, don't be afraid."
Her palms gently patted Zhaodi's back again and again to soothe the tremors.
"I'm here to help you. Your grandma won't bully you anymore."
Mrs. Cai on the bed coughed several times and sat up. Her voice was hoarse, but she still didn't forget to chase her soul and lock her life: "You tried to murder my grandmother. I will sue you and have you arrested!"
"Even if I die, I will take you with me!"
Mrs. Cai's eyes were full of murderous intent, and it seemed that she was ready to throw the jar into the air.
Useless people can only become commodities to be exchanged. Even if they are to be sold, they still have to suck blood!
