Chapter 3 — Exterior Hugs Her Belly, Drives My Master And Mother Out Of The Main Court
I didn't argue with her about who this house belonged to, I just looked at her coldly.
"If you want me to yield to the main court, you can make a commitment."
The old lady was stunned.
“Make what paper?”
"Write clearly in black and white that the Bui family voluntarily accepted this exterior into the palace. If the exterior causes any trouble in the future, it has nothing to do with my Tham Tri Vi."
The old lady probably felt that this request was too simple, so she immediately ordered the maid to get a pen and paper, neatly wrote it down, and then pressed the hand seal. I took the commitment paper, blew the ink dry, and gave it to Thanh Hoa to keep safe.
“Thanh Hoa, pack up my things, let's move.”
I turned around and walked towards the interior. When passing by the old lady, I didn't even stop.
"Also, the two chefs who specialize in cooking medicinal herbs in my hospital, I will also bring with me to the Western Academy."
The old lady was so pleased that she didn't think too much and immediately nodded in agreement.
“Take it away, take it away, don't let you stay in the main courtyard anymore.”
I took the two chefs with me and walked out of the main gate. Just as he had just finished arranging his things in the West courtyard, there was the sound of Bui Nghien returning from court outside. He heard what happened in the back yard, so he quickly ran to the main yard. Before he even stepped through the door, he heard Lieu Oanh Oanh's melodramatic cry.
“Brother Yan, that poisonous woman is very scary, she let the dog bite me, and even wanted to kill our children!”
Bui Nghien strode across the threshold, Lieu Oanh Oanh immediately hugged her stomach and threw herself into his arms, tears wetting the front of his official uniform. Bui Nghien's face turned pale, he suddenly waved his sleeve and strode straight to the west of the courtyard. He kicked open the courtyard door. Just as Thanh Hoa was about to stop, he pushed him aside.
"Tham Tri Vi! Are you crazy?"
Bui Nghien stood in the middle of the courtyard, pointed straight at me and shouted loudly.
"Can you think about my reputation a little bit? In the back yard of the royal court, if you dare to let dogs bite people, if this story spreads out, do I still need this face?"
I sat on a stone bench in the courtyard, in my hand holding a Van Cam notebook that had been trampled on by a small private with footprints.
“Is your dignity based on my patience?”
I brushed the dust off the books and brought them in front of him.
"The person you brought broke my porcelain bar, destroyed my books, compensated me at the original price, then reported to the mandarins."
Bui Nghien immediately pushed the notebook away, the notebook fell to the ground, the pages scattered everywhere.
"Report to the officials? You want the government to investigate the matter of my housekeeping? Are you planning to ruin my future as an official?"
He stared at me, his eyes filled with anger.
"If she swallows this lump, will she die? In her womb is my child, won't you be a little more generous?"
I looked at his face distorted by anger, his voice still calm as before.
"I'm generous? She pointed straight at my nose and scolded me for being a loser, and even kicked me out of my own courtyard. Now do I still have to be generous to her?"
My four words "our main institute" seemed to have hit Bui Nghien where it hurts. He lowered his voice and gritted his teeth. said:
"This is the Bui palace! I am your husband, my words are the rules!"
He pulled out a piece of paper from his sleeve and shook it in front of me.
"If you continue to cause trouble, I will retire you! Let you Tham family become the laughingstock of the entire Jiangnan!"
That's a retirement letter. I looked at that piece of paper and said nothing. Bui Nghien saw my silence and thought he had controlled me, his tone softened a bit.
"Tri Vi, be a little obedient, go and apologize to Oanh Oanh, this matter can be forgotten."
I raised my head and looked at his fake eyes. The love between husband and wife, at this moment, has completely turned to ashes. I stood up, picked up the book from the ground. Bui Nghien breathed a sigh of relief and was about to turn around and leave when I opened my mouth again.
“Bring over the compensation money, one hundred and twenty taels of silver, not even one penny short.”
Bui Nghien's footsteps stiffened, he suddenly turned his head and glared at me, then coldly snorted and waved his sleeves away.
