Uncle Chau was silent for a few seconds.

"The story of your mother leaving the Tham family that year is related to the assets in your name."

“For all these years, the Tham family has always wanted to get it back.”

Hua Man was stunned.

“What do you mean by taking it back?”

“Isn't Van Ninh's money his?”

Uncle Chau replied:

"It's the property my grandfather left for you."

“But the Tham family believes that once a daughter is married, she is no longer a member of the Tham family.”

“Grandchildren are not even qualified to inherit.”

Hua Man was so angry that she burst out laughing.

“In what era are you still playing this game of sharing meat on the streets?”

I bowed my head and looked at the card in my hand. The address written on it is very clear. Tham Cong Quan. I once heard my mother call this name in my dream. Then she kept repeating the same sentence over and over again. Don't return to Tham Cong Quan. Seven o'clock in the evening. I arrive. In front of the gate. Deputy Van Dinh is also standing there. As soon as he saw me, he immediately walked over.

“I'll come in with you.”

"No need."

“The Tham family is not simple.”

I looked at him.

“Is the Pho family very simple?”

“So simple that I was bullied by you guys for five years?”

His expression stiffened.

“I didn't mean that.”

Right at that moment. The butler came out.

“The old lady is waiting for you.”

He glanced at Pho Van Dinh.

“Sorry, Mr. Pho.”

“Your name is not on the guest list.”

Pho Van Dinh's face immediately turned ugly. I continued going in. But the butler spoke again.

“The old lady also told me more.”

"Mr. Chau is also not allowed in."

Uncle Chau slightly raised his eyes. The butler smiled calmly.

“The Tham family's banquet.”

“It is not convenient for outsiders to participate.”

Hua Man was blocked at the door to the point that she almost moved her hand.

"Outsider?"

“I think your whole family looks like outsiders!”

I turned to look at her.

“Wait for me outside.”

Tham Cong Quan is very old. But also extremely sophisticated. Green enamel ceramic vase. Red wooden screen. On the wall hangs a large calligraphy. Peace and prosperity. I took a look and burst out laughing inside. How ironic. There were already five people sitting in the dining room. The old lady of the Tham family sat in the middle. White hair. Hand on stick. On the left is my uncle. Tham Hoai Le. On the right is my cousin. Tham Thanh Thanh. Just saw me. Tham Thanh Thanh smiled first.

“Is this Van Ninh?”

“It looks a lot like you when you were young.”

“It's just a pity that the temperament is a little worse.”

“After all, I've been wandering around for so many years.”

I still stood in place. The old lady raised her hand. I pulled out a chair and sat down. Her eyes evaluated me from top to bottom. The first sentence is again:

“Is your mother awake?”

“Awake.”

“So he must have told you too.”

“The Tham family has never mistreated him.”

I looked straight at her.

“My mother only said one sentence.”

“She told me not to return to Tham Cong Quan.”

The old lady's finger lightly tapped the tip of the cane. My uncle frowned.

“Van Ninh.”

"Don't talk to your elders like that."

I asked directly:

“What did you call me here for today?”

Tham Thanh Thanh smiled and picked up the food.

“Of course we accept relatives.”

"Now your story is causing a stir in Hai Thanh."

“Everyone knows I have a lot of things in my hands.”

“The Tham family cannot be left alone.”

I raised my eyebrows.

“Ignore what?”

Tham Hoai Le spoke up.

"The assets in my name originally belonged to the Tham family."

“It's not safe for a girl to hold so many assets.”

“Give it back to the family to manage.”

“We will take care of it for you.”

If Hua Man was here. She must have turned the tables a long time ago. I picked up the cup of tea. But don't drink.

“Let you manage.”

“Then transfer everything to Tham Thanh Thanh?”

Tham Thanh Thanh's face immediately changed.

“What are you talking about?”

“After all, you are my cousin.”

The old lady looked at me.

“Thanh Thanh grew up in the Tham family.”

“Understand the rules.”

“And you lived outside for too long.”

“Don't understand these things.”

I nodded.

“It's true that I don't understand.”

“For example, kicking your biological daughter out of the house.”

“After that, I missed my grandchild's property.”

“What kind of rule is that?”

Tham Hoai Le slammed on the table.

“So Van Ninh!”

The two bodyguards outside the door immediately stepped forward. I put down the tea cup.

“So today the Tham family invited me here to negotiate.”

“Or do you want to rob?”

The old lady suddenly burst out laughing.

“This personality of yours is exactly like your mother's.”

“You're too stiff.”

“Usually you will suffer a loss.”

Tham Thanh Thanh took out a file of documents from his briefcase.

“This is a power of attorney.”

“Just need you to sign.”

“I will still be Miss Tham family.”

“We will arrange accommodation for you.”

“I will also hire the best nurse to take care of your mother.”

I glanced through the stack of papers. Every sentence and every word is written beautifully. But the meaning is extremely simple. I give all my assets to the Tham family. And they will give me living expenses every month. I raised my head.

“What if I don't sign?”

The old lady replied:

“What happened to your mother that year.”

“The Tham family still has some outstanding debts.”

I looked at her.

“Are you using my mother to threaten me?”

Tham Hoai Le's voice was cold.

“Not a threat.”

“It's a reminder.”

“That year my mother took it upon herself to take away the things my father left me.”

“It has embarrassed the Tham family.”

I replied immediately:

“That is the property my grandfather left me.”

Tham Thanh Thanh immediately objected.

“My grandfather was seriously ill at that time.”

“The mind is not clear.”

“I'm only a few years old.”

“On what basis can you get so much?”

I calmly looked at her.

“Based on the will.”

The atmosphere in the dining room immediately froze. The old lady stared at me.

“Where is the will?”

I smiled.

“Haven't you been looking for it for years?”

An impatient look immediately flashed in Tham Thanh Thanh's eyes.

“Is it at your place?”

I don't answer. The old lady said slowly:

“Van Ninh.”

“Don't follow in your mother's footsteps.”

“That year, because of a man, he turned against his family.”

“What about the end result?”

“Lying paralyzed in a hospital bed.”

I slowly stood up.

“My mother is in a hospital bed.”

“It's not because she left the Tham family.”

"It's because you guys intentionally disclosed your assets to Pho's mother."

“Let her come and force my mother.”

Tham Hoai Le's face suddenly changed.

“Who told you that?”

I looked at him. The corners of the lips slightly raised.

“So it's true.”

He immediately realized he had said something wrong. Face stiff. The entire dining room fell into dead silence.
