Chapter 834: Master Zhong is still a thief
Cheng Qingnian suddenly felt a chill on his back, as if all the blood in his body had stagnated.
She spoke so confidently, but when she thought about how she had been lying in bed for more than 20 years and was out of touch with society, she felt that she had never seen many new things in the world and was even inferior to a seven or eight-year-old child.
What can she do with thirty or fifty thousand yuan in the capital?
Rent a house, eat, and then look for a job?
She didn't study hard and didn't have a good diploma. She had no work experience or interpersonal experience in all these years.
What can she do?
If these people ignore her, how long can she live?
The fear of the unknown swept over my whole body.
Before, she didn't take her father's threats seriously, thinking that these people would not do anything so drastic.
But now it has gone too far.
She...what should she do?
Cheng Han looked at her pale face and said, "Go upstairs and pack your clothes now, or I'll ask Xiaoyuan to help you pack. If you're not clear-headed, go out and suffer for a few more years and learn the hardship."
"dad……"
Are we leaving now?
This really means she's going to be driven away.
Sun Weimeng was annoyed by the idea of being in love and said, "I'll go pack your things for you. You can leave right away after you're done."
"No need!" Cheng Qingnian didn't expect that she was so annoying. Everyone of them wanted her to leave.
She was tough for once: "I can pack my things myself! You don't have to rush me!"
She wiped her tears and ran upstairs.
Sun Weimeng patted Cheng Han's shoulder somewhat rudely and said, "Don't worry, old man. I will ask my friends to take care of her life and safety, and will never let her be in any danger. As for working to earn money, let her endure a little hardship."
"Thank you." Cheng Han said in a hoarse voice.
He still reeked strongly of alcohol, but he soon relaxed. After decades of trials and tribulations, he finally realized that Moon Village was his final destination. From then on, he would also treat patients.
If those people come to him for medical treatment, he will also agree.
When the time comes, I can hire a helper and my life will be stable.
…
The Huo family's master bedroom.
Qiao Xi covered her lips and couldn't help vomiting again. Her emotions fluctuated greatly after returning from the court.
Morning sickness is more obvious after pregnancy.
After rinsing her mouth, she took a towel and gently wiped her lips before walking out of the bathroom.
Huo Xingzhou poured her a glass of warm water: "Drink some, you will feel much better."
"Um."
Qiao Xi took a sip of water, and Huo Xingzhou helped her lie down on the bed. "Rest well for a while, don't move around. The doctor said you still need to pay attention in the early stages. If you feel tired, just lie down and rest."
As Qiao Xi lay down on the bed, she heard bursts of noise coming from outside.
She looked up and asked, "What's going on outside?"
Why does it feel like someone is moving something? It's such a loud noise.
"Cheng Qingnian was moving things, and Mr. Cheng kicked her out of the house." Huo Xingzhou was in the bedroom, but he knew everything about the situation outside.
"Did they really drive him away?"
"Um."
"I didn't expect Grandpa Cheng to make such a decision. It shows he's extremely disappointed in Cheng Qingnian. She must have known about today's verdict and was speaking up for the Lu family, so Grandpa Cheng was so heartless."
Huo Xingzhou stretched out his fingers and rubbed her frowning brows: "Don't worry about other people."
"good."
He leaned over and kissed her forehead. "Get some sleep. You wasted too much time in court this morning."
Qiao Xi closed her eyes obediently.
She was very tired, and her breathing soon became long and slow. However, she was somewhat conscious and could feel Huo Xingzhou sitting by her bed for a while, and then he left quickly.
She was immersed in the state between wakefulness and sleep, and felt as if her soul had drifted back many years.
She and Grandma Qiao lived in the countryside in poverty but happiness. Their biggest difficulty was lack of money. The grandmother and granddaughter worried about money every month, but they managed to get by despite the difficulties.
She also asked for advice from Grandpa Cheng next door and embarked on the path of studying medicine.
Suddenly one day, he brought back a young man, that was Ayi. From then on, her memory was filled with some beautiful things.
The scene changes, and it is a rainy day when she hears the sad news of his death.
She cried for a long, long time.
Later, she met a young man in Haicheng who said his name was Zhong Yi. Everyone called him Zhong Shao and said he was a candidate for the first family in the imperial capital.
He asked her if he looked like someone she cared about.
Qiao Xi's memory was a little confused, and another face overlapped with his and said, Xixi, I am Ayi.
It turns out he is still alive!
Qiao Xi thought it was great that he was alive!
In the dream, she was smiling happily, but outside the dream, she was lying on the bed with her eyes closed and tears flowing out.
She dreamed of her grandmother again, dreamed of how helpless she was in the fire that night, and dreamed that her grandmother died just like that.
Qiao Xi burst into tears!
Trapped in a nightmare!
Can't wake up!
In the corridor.
Huo Xingzhou was talking to Lao Chen.
The sentencing of Lu Bannong and Lu Yingxue sparked a furor online. The Lu family's businesses were falling apart, and many people were vying for a piece of the pie. The four great families had just emerged, and one of them collapsed.
The Guan family took advantage of the opportunity.
"Young Master, many people online are speculating about who will be the next president of the Chinese Medicine Association. Mr. Cheng Han is still alive, and he was previously the honorary president of the association. Our young mistress is his apprentice and also the vice president. She's well-deserved..."
"Suppress the public opinion and don't let Qiao Xi get caught up in the storm. She shouldn't be the one to clean up the mess that the Chinese Medicine Association has."
Huo Xingzhou was acting out of selfish motives. Qiao Xi liked traditional Chinese medicine and she didn't like management.
"Yes, I think someone is deliberately inciting public opinion. Maybe it's those old guys from the Chinese Medicine Association and the Xiao family. Now the only person they can rely on most is our young lady."
Old Chen followed Huo Xingzhou and became more and more perceptive in his thinking.
"What's going on over there, Zhong Yi?"
"Young Master Zhong met with Miss Feng alone today, and he also went to the hospital to see the old man in the evening. The old man of the Zhong family has not woken up yet..."
Whether this old man wakes up or not affects the situation of the imperial capital, which is more important than anything else.
Huo Xingzhou frowned slightly: "He met Feng Nanxi?"
Feng Nanxi was also acting abnormally today.
"Yes, I found out something. Young Master Zhong bought a rare large pearl at an auction house. Could it be..."
What a coincidence.
Feng Nanxi also wants to give Qiao Xi a pearl.
Huo Xingzhou's lips curled up into an inexplicable smile, and he commented indifferently, "So many tricks."
Old Chen was filled with righteous indignation: "That's right! That Young Master Zhong is really a thief who has not given up, actually thinking of such a way to give the Young Madam a gift. I think he did it on purpose, luckily it was confiscated."
Huo Xingzhou lowered his eyes.
But I heard faint crying coming from the room.
His expression froze, and he quickly pushed the door open and walked in.
