Chapter 11 — He promised to pick me up three months later

“Miss, if Marquis knows about the child, will he come and cause trouble?” I looked at the jade button in my palm. “He will know.” “But not now.” 09 After establishing a female guardian, I did not return to the Tham family. Tham Lam Chu helped me find a small house where my mother used to live when she was still alive. The house is located in Hoe Hoa alley, the yard is not large, and in the corner of the wall there is an old pomegranate tree. When Thai Linh helped me step in, a few dried pomegranates from last year were still hanging from the tree. She said softly. "Miss, wait until next year when the tree blooms, this yard will definitely be very beautiful." I raised my head to look at that pomegranate tree. "I definitely will." "So do we." Nurse Bach comes every day to change my prescription. She said my vitality was damaged and I needed to rest for at least a month. I obediently agreed. But as soon as he turned around, he told Treasurer Nghiem to bring all the books of the stores to the hospital. Female physician Bach was so angry that she slammed the bowl of medicine down on the table. "If you continue like this, I won't treat you anymore." I raised my eyes to look at her. "Sister Bach, if you don't look at the books, your heart will be even more suffocated." She looked at me coldly for a long time, then finally pushed the bowl of medicine closer. "You can see." "One hour a day." "More than a quarter is not enough." I smiled and agreed. This is the first time since I retired that I truly smiled. The three-day deadline quickly arrived. The Marquis only returned half of the dowry. The remaining amount of silver is not compensated even by a single document. Treasurer Nghiem gave me the list. "Miss, the Marquis said the palace is in trouble and can't manage." "Marquis Bui also sent someone to send a message that I hope you will grant me an extension." I flipped through the list. "In the past, when he used my money, did you ever ask me if I agreed to let him beg?" "Come to the mandarin." "Please seal the assets in the Marquis' name that can be used for deduction." Treasurer Nghiem's eyes immediately lit up. "Yes." The capital quickly became bustling again. Up ahead, the storyteller at Thinh Vu Lau had just finished telling the story of the Marquis retiring his wife and seizing the dowry. Behind, the officials have arrived at the Marquis Palace. Bui Nghien was stopped right in front of the palace gate, his face as unsightly as a block of iron that had just frozen solid. The old lady cried to the heavens and the earth, saying that I did not remember my old love and wanted to force the Marquis Palace to the end. However, the officials only work according to the correct records. A manor on the outskirts of the Marquis' Palace was sealed with paper. Two other stores also had their books temporarily seized. When the news reached Hoe Hoa alley, I was teaching Thai Linh to calculate accounts. After hearing that, Thai Linh was so happy that she almost threw away the abacus beads. "It's worth it." "Previously, you ate what belonged to the young lady, what you wore, now you have to give it all away." I closed the book. "It's still not enough." "What I want is not just money." "I want them from now on to not be able to continue to take other people's kindness for granted." At sunset, Tham Lam Chu arrived, also bringing another news. "Lieu Ham Yen has kept it. child." "But the letters that Tong Hoai An gave have been verified, they were indeed written by her own hand." "The owner of that jade pendant has also been found." I asked. "Who is it?" Tham Lam Chu's expression turned a little cold. "The strategist next to Bui Nghien, Ta Van Dinh." I paused. I once met Ta Van Dinh. He often replaces Bui Nghien to handle paperwork. In the past, every time he came to the Marquis Palace, he always looked gentle and respectful. If Lieu Ham Yen really has a relationship with him, then this hat that Bui Nghien wears on his head is truly a very sturdy one. Thai Linh couldn't help but speak up. "So isn't Miss Lieu making fun of the Marquis like a fool?" Tham Lam Chu said. "Bui Nghien still refuses to believe it." "He sent someone to arrest Ta Van Dinh.

But Ta Van Dinh has already escaped." My fingertips lightly tapped on the table. "Running so fast, it shows that someone has informed me in advance." Tham Lam Chu looked at me. "Do you doubt Lieu Ham Yen?" I shook my head. "Now that Lieu Ham Yen is being followed, it is unlikely that she can spread the news." "There are still people in the Marquis Palace to help her." As soon as the words ended, there was suddenly a rapid knocking sound outside the door. Thai Linh went to open the door. The person who came was a little girl who used to serve in my yard at the Hau palace, named A Oanh. As soon as she entered the door, she knelt down, her whole body trembling. "You saved my life." "This slave doesn't dare to return to the Hau palace anymore." Thai Linh quickly helped her up. "What happened?"
