Chapter 4
Chapter 4 — In my previous life, I saved my son. In this life, I give in to my younger sister
“But because I have experienced enough suffering in my previous life, I have sworn that in this life I will never have anything to do with you or have anything to do with you again.”
Luc Thieu raised his hand to cover his rapidly red face, his eyes filled with anger. After hearing me mention the story of my past life, a trace of guilt and remorse appeared.
"Zhi Nghi, you don't have to be so strong. The whole capital knows about the engagement between you and me. If you don't marry me, do you really want to cut your hair and become a nun?"
"If you feel that being a concubine is humiliating, after entering the Marquis Palace, as long as you understand things a little more, I will find an opportunity to raise you to be an equal wife, it is not impossible."
He once again stood up straight, showing a noble and superior appearance, waiting for my gratitude and gratitude. I knew it was useless to say more, so I used my strength to pull out my wrist that he was holding tightly, and turned around to return to the room. Behind him, Luc Thieu's angry and unwilling voice came:
"Tiet Chi Nghi, when that time comes, don't come crying and begging for me!"
The next day, the Marquis brought the bride price. A total of one hundred and eight chests of brocade, silk, jade and ivory treasures filled the entire Tiet palace. Luc Thieu himself followed and together with Tiet Chi Nhu opened each gift box to take a look.
"Brother Thieu, thank you. Until now, no one has ever treated a woman like me with such care and respect."
When the father in the room heard these words, his face was so angry that he turned pale. I couldn't hear it, the window spoke:
"Up until now in the Tiet family, from clothes, expenses to everything we use every day, we two sisters have been the same. The love that father has for us has never been different."
"On the contrary, it's you who, time and time again, opens your mouth as your daughter, your concubine, making outsiders who hear it think that your father and the Tiet family have mistreated you. Aren't you afraid of pretending to be pitiful, making up lies and then facing retribution?"
After venting this anger on my father's behalf, I sat down again. Continue embroidering the scented bag in your hand, preparing to give it to Quy Thu Nghieu. Right after that, the curtain was forcefully lifted. Luc Thieu, full of anger, boldly walked in:
"Tiet Chi Nghi, I thought you understood things better now, but I didn't expect that in your heart you still hold hatred towards Chi Nhu!"
"In the future, Chi Nhu will be the mother of the Marquis Palace. You dare to be rude and collide with her like that. Do you still have a hierarchy in your eyes?"
This time, before I could answer, father couldn't bear it anymore. He took a step forward, standing between us:
"Tu Tu, even though Chi Nhu will later become the Crown Princess of the Marquis Palace, in the Tiet family, Chi Nghi is still his older sister! Is there anything wrong with teaching your younger sister a few words?"
Tiet Chi Nhu followed behind him, her eyes filled with tears, her appearance extremely pitiful:
"Forget it, Brother Thieu, as long as you have me in your heart and value me, that's enough."
While talking, the jade pendant on my chest slipped out of my outer layer. As soon as Luc Thieu saw it, he immediately reached out and forcefully pulled the jade pendant down from my neck. He completely ignored my cry of pain and conveniently handed over the jade pendant Let Tiet Chi Nhu stand behind:
"Zhi Nhu, this piece of jade pendant can be considered as my penance for your sins."
I was extremely surprised, tried to endure the pain and shouted loudly:
“That is the relic my mother left me, give it back to me!”
His father was also so angry that his face turned pale:
“Luc Tu Tu, you really oppress people too much!”
“Chi Nhu, quickly return the jade pendant to your sister.”
Tiet Chi Nhu's eyes turned slightly, a hint of calculation flashed in his eyes. She intentionally made her hands shake. The jade pendant immediately fell to the ground, breaking into two halves. My heart was in so much pain that I rushed forward despite everything, wanting to pick up the broken jade pendant. But Tiet Chi Nhu lifted his foot and stepped hard on my hand. I was in so much pain that I cried out, only then did she hastily take a step back, her face filled with fake guilt:
“Sister, I didn't mean it.”
Father finally couldn't bear it any longer and raised his hand to hit her. But right before his hand fell on Tiet Chi Nhu's face, Luc Thieu reached out and grabbed his wrist tightly.
