Chapter 13 — Being Slagged by My Mother-in-Law in the Crowd, I Turned to Sell the House

In a completely new place, beautiful and peaceful… Starting our new life. Hang up the phone. I dried my tears, feeling lighter and clearer than ever. The phone vibrated again. It's Tran Khai's WeChat message.

“On Tinh, are you okay?”

"The Giang family won't come to cause trouble anymore, will they?"

Seeing those words of concern, a warm current suddenly arose in my heart.

"I'm fine, my parents are fine too. Thank you, Tran Khai."

"If it weren't for your timely notification, the consequences are truly unimaginable."

"It's just a small matter, it's good that you're okay."

He attached a silly smiling expression.

"Oh right, where are you now? Is it convenient to talk?"

I looked at the blue sea in the distance and answered.

“I'm in Sanya, very convenient.”

The other party was silent for a moment, seemingly thinking about how to express it. A few minutes later, he sent a very long message.

“On Tinh, I don't know what your plans are for the future right now.”

“But I have a somewhat sudden request.”

“A college friend of mine is working on a high-end homestay project in Sanya, the future is very promising, and is currently looking for angel investors.”

“I can guarantee his dignity and ability.”

“I just think the money in your hand, instead of sitting in the bank, can create greater value.”

“Of course this is just a suggestion, don't pressure me.”

“Looks like you talk too much.”

I looked at that message for a long time without replying. Not because of hesitation. It's because I'm thinking about my future path. My life is lived for Giang Ha. Because of that so-called family. And now... I want to live once for myself. Start a business. Become a truly independent and strong woman. Looks like not a bad start. I took a deep breath and slowly tapped the screen with my fingertips.

“I am very interested in this project.”

“Can you send me his contact information and the project plan?”

“I thought… maybe we could meet up and talk.”

The moment the message was sent… It was like I saw my life unfold on a completely different track. A track full of unknowns. But also full of hope. Is the best filter. It will get rid of useless impurities in life. At the same time, it also causes all retributions to finally fall into their proper place. One month later. Giang Ha was finally fired by that fake import-export company. The reason is very simple. He has lost his "support", which is me. Working capacity was miserably poor, repeatedly damaging several important contracts with customers. The boss has long been dissatisfied with him. Just out of respect for my family, I have always been patient. The mountain that supported me has disappeared. He naturally became the first to be cleaned up. After losing his job, Giang Ha completely turned into a deserter. No skills. Lazy and enjoying enjoyment. Basically, I can't find any decent job. He rented the cheapest small room in the working-class village. Every day we live with instant noodles and cheap white wine. Gradually becoming unkempt and humble, his whole body reeked of alcohol. Every time the landlord came to ask for rent, he would get angry and scream. Neighbors criticized him for being noisy, so he glared at them fiercely. He brings all the misfortune in life... Blame it all on my "betrayal". Every day he used different public phones to frantically call my old canceled number. One time, after being drunk, he even went to the lawyer's office where we had signed the divorce agreement, made a scene, said lawyer Truong was a fraud, and forced him to return his wife to him. When the security guard heard the news, he ran over and dragged him like a dead dog, then threw him straight out. He became a famous joke in the whole street. As for Luu Ngoc Tran and Giang Kien Quoc, after returning to their old hometown... Life was not any better. In the past, in the countryside, they always considered themselves city people, looked down on this person, looked down on that person. Now returning in such a pathetic form... It has become the biggest laughing matter in the whole village. Those who had flattered them before, now saw them with undisguised mockery in their eyes. Luu Ngoc Tran could not stand that difference, his temper became increasingly hot-tempered. She vented all her anger on the weak and honest Giang Kien Quoc. Just because the food is a little salty or bland, she will scold you. Just because the grass in the field had not been completely pulled out, she beat and pinched it. She considered him... As "the second Wen Qing". But Giang Kien Quoc is not me. One time, just because of a small matter, Luu Ngoc Tran threw a bowl of hot porridge on him. The man who had been silent all his life... Finally exploded. He picked up the shoulder pole in the yard and ferociously whipped it down on Luu Ngoc Tran's body one by one.

"You crazy woman! I let you continue causing this chaos!"

“I let you continue making trouble!”

"This house was destroyed by you and you still haven't woken up!"

“Today I beat you to death!”
