Chapter 9 — I Was Evicted From Home In The Middle Of The Night, I Rebuilt A Home For My Children

Three days before the trial, Han Thanh proactively contacted To Mang. Not through lawyer Phuong. But call yourself. To Mang did not hide it from me. That evening, she played the call recording for me to listen to.

“Two lawyers To.”

“You are To Van's older sister.”

“Can we not take everything to court?”

To Mang's voice was very calm.

“Do you think there is any other choice now?”

“I can rename the house.”

“Money can also be negotiated.”

“But I can't give in to Niem Niem.”

“Nem Niem?”

To Mang smiled coldly.

“Is it you who wants it, or does your mother want it?”

Han Thanh was silent for a moment then said:

“My mother said so.”

“The Han family only has this one blood line…”

To Mang immediately interrupted him.

“Han Thanh.”

"What is the baby in Trieu Tieu Man's belly?"

“Isn't your mother always boasting that it's a boy?”

“That... that's for later.”

“Nien Niem is also the blood of the Han family…”

“So what do you mean?”

To Mang asked directly.

"On the one hand, he criticized To Van for giving birth to a daughter and kicked the mother and daughter out of the house."

“On the one hand, I want to keep the baby in the Han family.”

“I both hate and want it.”

“Han Thanh, don't you find yourself very conflicted?”

The other end of the line immediately went silent. To Mang continued:

“I have conveyed your conditions.”

“But my client's limits will not change.”

“The house belongs to To Van and Niem Niem.”

“The right to raise Niem Niem belongs to To Van.”

“The 194,000 yuan you transferred to Trieu Tieu Man must be fully returned.”

“Alimony paid monthly.”

“If you do not agree.”

“We meet in court.”

Han Thanh's voice became much smaller.

“Lawyer To.”

“Please help me tell To Van something.”

“Next month is Niem Niem's birthday.”

“I want to meet her once.”

To Mang did not agree. Also don't refuse. After listening, she just asked me:

"Whether you let me meet you or not, you decide for yourself."

“Wait for the lawsuit to end and then consider.”

The opening day of the trial is a Thursday morning. To Mang told me to dress a little more neatly. I rummaged through a pile of old clothes and found a white shirt. Washed and washed twice. Niem Niem was sent to the supermarket owner's wife to look after him for half a day. The courtroom is not large. There were a few people in the audience. In addition to the court staff, there was also a young girl I didn't know. Later I found out that it was lawyer Phuong's assistant. Han Thanh sat in the defendant's seat. I sit in the plaintiff's seat. Between us is a path. First time. I watched him in a formal trial. He got his hair cut. Wear a neat suit. There was no special expression on his face. To Mang sat next to me. The entire presentation was done by her on my behalf. The truth of the case: After getting married, the couple bought a house together. During the marriage, Han Thanh voluntarily transferred the name of the house to his biological mother, Vuong Tu Lan. Forged wife's signature. Many times, he transferred money to a third person, Trieu Tieu Man, with a total amount of 194,000 yuan. Using the reason that the plaintiff gave birth to a daughter, the plaintiff and the minor child were evicted from the house. Evidence: Forty-seven fully numbered recordings. Clearly state the time, content and related events. Sixteen copies of the transfer transactions are printed in a separate file. Attached is real estate transfer documents provided by the management agency grant. And forged signature inspection report. When the judge finishes reviewing all evidence documents. He raised his head and looked at Han Thanh. Lawyer Phuong conducted the defense on behalf of Han Thanh. In short, there are only two main ideas. The transfer of property name has objective reasons. Not intentionally dispersing assets. A child living with his father will have better development conditions. To Mang refuted each point in turn. Lawyer Phuong said the name transfer is related to the loan. To Mang immediately presented a certificate confirming that the loan had been paid in full. The time of transfer of name takes place three months after the loan is settled. Completely unrelated. Lawyer Phuong said recording could violate privacy. To Mang directly cited the Supreme Court's judicial interpretation. Recording in your own home is not an illegal act of collecting evidence. Furthermore, the recording content is objective and truthful. Lawyer Phuong said that my current economic condition is not enough to raise my children. To Mang submitted his job confirmation. Proof of income. Rental contract. And also her own financial guarantee commitment document. For an hour and a half. Han Thanh sat in the defendant's seat. Don't say a word. All words are spoken by lawyer Phuong. The judge asked:

“Does the defendant have any additional comments?”

Han Thanh stood up. Look towards me.

“I just want to say one thing.”

“Nien Niem is my daughter.”

“I have never not needed her.”

Next to me. To Mang spoke softly:

“When you kicked her mother out of the house in the middle of the night, you gave up on her.”
