Chapter 3 — Eating a piece of sea cucumber, I sent my husband's family out the door
To Thien covered her mouth. A look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
“Mr. Hao, why do you hit women?”
“That's not good.”
Tran Hao scratched his head. Looks a bit embarrassed.
“She doesn't understand the rules.”
“I'm just teaching a little bit.”
Vuong Thuy Phan pulled To Thien to sit down.
“Thien Thien, you don't know.”
“It's just a girl these days, it's nothing.”
“I don't know how to cook.”
“Don't know how to do housework.”
“Every day I just want to run out.”
"No one can be like you, both understanding and talented."
To Thien smiled gently.
“Auntie is so praising.”
“I only learned a little Western stuff while I was abroad, it's nothing.”
Tran Kieu immediately stopped by.
“Sister Thien Thien!”
“The tiramisu you made is really delicious.”
“Can you make it for me again someday?”
"Okay."
The three people talked and laughed. Completely see me as air. Tran Hao's eyes when he looked at To Thien were completely different from when he looked at me. There was light in those eyes. I sat on the chair, looking at the scene before me. Suddenly it felt so funny. It turns out that's it. No wonder he treats me so badly. It turns out there's always someone else in my heart. To Thien suddenly turned to look at me. She smiled very sweetly.
“Sister-in-law, what do you do?”
“Mr. Hao said you do software, right?”
I put down my chopsticks.
“Wow, that's really good.”
Her eyes were filled with admiration.
“So how much money do you earn each month?”
Tran Kieu immediately responded:
“How much do you earn?”
“Probably only a few thousand yuan.”
"As I told you, she's just a coder."
“Overtime every day.”
“The income is not even the same as my brothers.”
To Thien covered her mouth and laughed.
“So that's it.”
“So it was quite difficult.”
She stopped for a moment then looked at Tran Hao.
“Mr. Hao is very good now.”
“As a project manager in the company.”
“The annual salary is 300,000 yuan.”
Tran Kieu immediately nodded proudly.
“That's right.”
“You guys are the ones with the most money in the family.”
Vuong Thuy Phan also followed:
“But nothing else.”
“Our family Tran Hao has been smart since he was young.”
“Right now, the company is still a core employee.”
I looked at them. Say nothing. Tran Hao's face was full of pride. He glanced at me. The feeling in his eyes was full of superiority.
“Nhuoc Van.”
“You also have to try harder.”
“Don't work overtime all day long and still not make much money.”
I nodded.
“I will try.”
To Thien stood up and walked next to Tran Hao.
"Brother Hao, this time I returned home and wanted to discuss something with you."
Tran Hao was immediately excited.
“What?”
“You say it.”
To Thien smiled shyly.
“I met an investor abroad.”
“He wanted to open a Western restaurant in the country.”
“Ask me if I'm interested in collaborating.”
"I think if Mr. Hao helps me, the two of us working together will definitely succeed."
Tran Hao's eyes lit up.
"Really?"
“That's great.”
“How much money do you need?”
To Thien raised a finger.
“Not much.”
“1,000,000 yuan is enough.”
The smile on Tran Hao's face immediately stiffened.
“1,000,000 yuan?”
To Thien nodded. Looks a bit disappointing.
“It's really a bit much.”
“But this is a very good opportunity.”
"Mr. Hao, if you help me, we'll split the money later."
Vuong Thuy Phan immediately decided to change.
“My family paid this amount of money.”
Tran Hao turned to look Mom.
“Where did we get 1,000,000 yuan?”
Vuong Thuy Phan glanced at me. There was a flash of calculation in his eyes.
“Doesn't Nhuoc Van have money?”
“Tell him to let go.”
I laughed.
"I have no money."
Tran Kieu immediately jumped up.
“Are you still saying you don't have money?”
“Isn't this house you bought?”
“Surely you have money.”
I looked at her.
“I bought the house.”
“But I don't have 1,000,000 yuan in cash.”
Vuong Thuy Phan laughed coldly.
“No?”
“So mortgage the house.”
“Go to the bank to borrow money.”
I shook my head.
"Impossible."
Tran Hao suddenly stood up. He stepped in front of me.
“Nhuoc Van, what do you mean?”
“To Thien has such a good opportunity.”
“Aren't you going to help?”
I raised my head to look at him.
“Why should I help her?”
To Thien's eyes immediately turned red. She bit her lip.
“Sister-in-law, I know you don't like me.”
“But this is a really good opportunity.”
"If Mr. Hao succeeds, both of their future lives will also be better."
Tran Kieu pointed straight at me and scolded:
“What a selfish thing.”
“You guys treat me so well.”
“Even this little thing still refuses to help.”
“Do you still have a conscience?”
Vuong Thuy Phan also stood up.
“Nhuoc Van.”
“You must take this money out today.”
“Otherwise, don't continue to stay in this house.”
I looked at them. Suddenly felt extremely tired. I suddenly felt very tired. Is this the family I've always wanted? Is this the marriage I longed for? I stood up. Slowly walk to the window. Three black cars are parked under the street lights. I looked at the clock. Five minutes left.
