Completely Severed

With the villagers of Lengshui Village acting as witnesses, Zhao Chuchu accepted the emancipation proof, and her ties with the Zhao clan were severed entirely from that moment onward.

"I've already given what you asked for. Hurry up and save them!" Madam Yang said angrily.

Zhao Chuchu read through the proof and raised her head to look at the older woman. "Why are you even in such a hurry? I still have to head into the mountain to find the herbs for that. But, since everyone is here, I'll make this clear first. Even if I managed to cure Zhao Baogen, he would still become half a cripple. Do you still want to do it? If not, I'll just return your silvers."

"No! You've already taken them! You have to make sure they can walk again!"

"Is that so? Then, I won't help them. Here. You can have the money back."

Zhao Chuchu acted as if she wanted to return the silvers.
