Chapter 6 — After Reconciliation, I Was Appointed County King

I gave a few instructions to the old servants who gathered around to ask kindly about what had just happened, then gave the Queen Mother's instructions to the old butler among them. "Early tomorrow morning, please help me make a trip to the Giang family to retrieve the peace book and all my belongings." I thought that with the Queen Mother's instructions, everything would go smoothly. Who would have thought that the next morning, the old butler with an awkward face brought the Giang family's carriage. "Master Giang said, things related to separation, she wants to personally discuss with you." Giang So Uyen came personally. She was still wearing yesterday's clothes, her hair was disheveled, and under her dark blue eyes, she had lost her previous leisurely and calm look. Her eyes were full of blood. When she saw me, she said directly: "Lang Tu will immediately move out of Giang Palace." "From now on, I will treat you well. The matter of separation will be discussed later, okay?" Ve Lang Tu will move out of Giang Palace? I was a bit surprised. But very quickly, I regained my composure: "You don't need to tell me how you arranged Ve Lang Tu." "Have you brought the Book of Peace yet?" I couldn't jump into her pit of fire because of Giang So Uyen's seeming concession. But as soon as he finished speaking, there was a slap in front of him, accompanied by a stern admonition from Mother Giang. "Bui Tac Du, you are truly lawless!" "Short Uyen is just sick, let Lang Tu treat her. How could you misunderstand her character, thinking that she already has a husband and has feelings for other men?" Okay!” I struggled to avoid Giang's slap, almost falling down. My waist suddenly tightened, but Giang So Uyen promptly caught me. I heard her softly say to Mother Giang: "Don't make things difficult for Tac Du." Mother Giang didn't do anything anymore, angrily said to me: "Look, Sister Uyen has always been protecting you. Because of your quarrel, she didn't sleep all night last night." "You still haven't stopped making trouble, obediently reconciled with So Uyen, and followed us back to the Giang family. This time, we won't worry about anything anymore, you're still a good son-in-law of our Giang family." The tone came from above. looked down, as if granting me some favor. One person has a white face, the other has a red face, almost making me laugh out of anger. I pushed Giang So Uyen away and stood up straight. "No need." Looking into Giang So Uyen's eyes, my voice was sarcastic to the extreme. "I'm so ugly, I don't dare to accept being a good son-in-law of your Giang family." "Write a letter of separation." Having finished speaking, the old butler next to him offered him paper and pen. Giang So Uyen opened her mouth, as if she still wanted to say something, either to explain, or to hold back. But I sat down myself, picked up the cup of tea, and I didn't want to respond to anything she said. Seeing this, Giang's mother's face turned pale and was about to scold her. Finally, Giang So Uyen opened her mouth, her voice hoarse: "Okay." She picked up the pen and waved her hand to write a letter of separation. With a few scattered lines of text, our relationship is now severed and will no longer be related. When I pressed the handprint, my heart felt relieved. Just as I was about to call the old butler to bring the divorce document to the official's office for filing, I heard Giang's mother exclaim in alarm: "Sho Uyen!" In front of my eyes, a shadow flashed, and Giang So Uyen's figure fell towards me. I immediately took a step back, letting her fall to the ground, making a dull sound. Giang's mother quickly took her people home, and that night called doctors from all over the city for a consultation. I didn't have the heart to pay too much attention, focusing on arranging the things Jiang family returned. Perhaps I finally let go of the big rock in my heart, the fatigue of the past days rushed in. When we are adjusting the books, we often suddenly fall asleep. After half a month of the new year, during the Thuong Nguyen period, the Queen Mother finally sent someone to welcome me, summoning me to a temple on the outskirts of the capital for an audience. In the temple, there is prosperity and smoke, people pass by

again. As soon as I got off the carriage, I didn't expect to bump into Giang So Uyen right in front of me. Her face was pale as if she had just recovered from a serious illness, her face was haggard, her eyes were still bright. "Tac Du, today is Nguyen Tieu, I went to the temple to pray for peace for you this year, and was about to bring it to you." The custom of Dai Ngu, Thuong Nguyen festival to pray for peace for family members is the most effective. There was a time when Giang So Uyen was a good wife, of course she came to pray every year. But now we are no longer in a relationship. I resolutely refused: "No need, you keep it for Ve Lang Tu." Pausing for a moment, I asked again: "I heard that Ve Lang Tu is still in your yard, when will you two get married?" My voice carried sarcasm. Before, Giang So Uyen said she wanted Ve Lang Tu to move out of the Giang family, but I don't believe it's true. Giang So Uyen immediately explained: "Previously, I was unconscious, only Lang Tu could revive me, mother took the initiative and let him stay." "But don't worry, he has looked at people's eyes, and will soon decide on the marriage." She carefully looked at my face, afraid that I would misunderstand. But I didn't believe a word of her words. "I have nothing to worry about. I'm waiting to drink your celebratory wine." After saying that, I didn't pay attention to her anymore and went straight to the temple.
