Chapter 5 — Chief Robber of Destiny

"You're not getting married! Obviously I said I'd let you stay in Jiangnan for three full years, now it's only been a year..." Father slammed on the table: "The marriage has been decided, it's not your turn to mess around!" "Then tell him to marry sister A Ngu! After all, it's not the first time he's replaced you..." Father got angry, stepped up and slapped her. During the struggle, she suddenly staggered. I instinctively stepped up to help. Immediately after that, she clutched her lower abdomen and screamed in panic. Dark red blood gradually seeped out from the hem of her dress, like an apricot rose suddenly blooming. The whole room was silent. Mother immediately rushed over: "You... Are you pregnant?" The elder sister's face was ashen as ash, coldly looking at her mother. I looked at the pool of blood on that sister's dress, and a buzzing sound rang out in my head. Elder sister is not a month. The elder sister had a miscarriage. The doctor came very quickly. Sure enough, after checking his pulse, he looked awkward: "Master, ma'am, this is... a miscarriage." 10 Father let everyone leave, leaving only mother, eldest sister and me. The elder sister knelt on the ground, her shirt covered in blood. Perhaps on the way to be tied up and brought home, he had to endure the tiring boat ride. She didn't eat well and was infected with wind and cold. She didn't even know it herself. Mother's eyes were red, but she couldn't ask a word. I took a step forward: "Sister, whose child is it?" She raised her head and smiled coldly. After a long while, she said in a hoarse voice: "It's the third son of the Lam family. Even though I live in my grandfather's house, I'm with you every day." "You treat me very well, you said you would marry me." She suddenly grabbed my wrist tightly. "A Ngu, please help me tell my father and mother. I only need you, I don't need the others..." I gently withdrew my hand: "If he has said he wants to marry you, It's been so long, has he ever asked someone to marry him?" The older sister's lips trembled, unable to speak. Mother closed her eyes and finally spoke: "The Marquis of An Binh Palace has brought the bride price, the whole capital knows that you are about to marry there." "At this time, the story of you carrying the flesh and blood of another man is spread, do you still need the dignity of the Tham family? Do you still want to be a human being in the future?" "Then you won't marry..." "It's not your turn to decide!" Father walked in from outside, his face pale. "It's because I pampered you too much, so I raised you into an unworthy person." Such shamelessness!" The mother stepped forward and hugged the elder sister. "I will find a secret doctor for you. I heard they can restore that place to its original state." "So when you marry Prince Ta, you will still be clean." "Son, this is the only way." The elder sister fell to the ground, tears streaming down her face. She suddenly turned her head to look at me. There was a strong hatred in her eyes. "Tham Ngu, are you happy? From childhood to adulthood, I have always been better than you. Now that I have fallen, you must be very happy in your heart, right?" I shook my head and sighed: "Sister, in your previous life you took the beating for me, I still remember your kindness." "But today's events are the result of your own choice." "If you really want to marry Lam Tam Lang, why don't you tell him? "If you don't want this marriage, why didn't you say it clearly when father and mother got married?" "Now that it's like this, you can't blame me." Elder sister was stunned. This is the first time I have opposed her like this. Finally, she buried her face in her palms, crying until she couldn't breathe. 11 A few days later, the secret nurse arrived. I consoled the elder sister a few words and then retreated to the outer room. Through a thin curtain, I heard her suppressed moans of pain. When returning to the hospital, I suddenly saw a figure. It's Trieu Kieu. "Your face doesn't look good." He leaned closer. "What's going on?" "Nothing." I shook my head. "In my chest."

What are you hiding?" He opened the hem of his shirt, revealing a small bamboo cage. Inside there was a snow-white rabbit lying down. Its lovely soft ears drooped, it was sleeping very soundly. "I bought it at the end of the street. I thought you were always upset in your room recently, so I brought it to you to entertain you." He stuffed the cage into my hand. The warmth in his palm passed through the bamboo slats, making my heart suddenly warm. But as soon as he handed it into my hand, he smiled evilly and pulled it back. "If you don't want it, I'll take it away." I lowered my head to look at the soft little rabbit, immediately stopping her: "Hey... Who says I don't want it?" He grinned, revealing a row of teeth. white: "Then tomorrow I'll bring you another gray one, put it in a pair." I hugged the soft little rabbit, my heart suddenly melted. "Okay." 12 Three days after the female doctor left, the older sister was able to get out of bed and drink the soup herself, I don't know. I only know that the older sister's face became better and better. But her eyes were no longer as bright and generous as before started to be afraid of people. As soon as she heard footsteps, she immediately hid in the room. Mother said: "Uyen Nhi has thought it through." But I know, right now she is still thinking about Lam Tam Lang.
