Chapter 2 — Mon Mi

I continued to say: "If Tham Van Nhu has a marriage contract with Ta Thua An, the child she is carrying is also Ta Thua An's, and the Ta family can completely organize the wedding soon. Why do we have to use my wife's reputation to suppress the rumors?" The eyes of the elders turned to Ta Nghien Tu. There was anger in his eyes. "Chieu Vi, the matter hasn't been investigated clearly yet, don't arbitrarily involve others." I burst out laughing. “Then invite Ta Thua An in.” Ta Nghien Tu's face changed. “You called him?” I look at him. “He is outside.” Ta Thua An had been standing outside the door from the street for half the time. Before I pushed open the door from the street, Thanh Chi followed my instructions and led him from the side door. I cannot let Ta Nghien Tu secretly coerce him. When Ta Thua An walked in, his face turned pale. He was still young, still wearing the gray robe used for traveling, his shoe soles were covered in mud. After entering the door, he first bowed to the clan elders. Then I looked at Ta Nghien Tu. “Brother Tang, when did I have an engagement with Miss Tham?” Ta Nghien Tu's eyes turned cold. “Thua An, let's talk about this later.” Ta Thua An did not back down. "There's no need to wait any longer. Since you've dragged me into this matter today, just say it clearly in front of the clan elders." Tham Van Nhu cried and raised her head. "Brother Thua An, how could you be like that? You clearly said you would marry me." Ta Thua An's face became even more unsightly. "Three months ago, I went to Thanh Ha district to do official duties. I just returned to the capital yesterday. Since when did Miss Tham talk about marrying me?" The old man immediately asked: "Is there any evidence?" Ta Thua An took out the instructions, dispatch dispatch, and seal of the Thanh Ha district translation agency from his sleeve. Each sheet was placed under condemnation. "I left the capital for three months, Miss Tham stayed for two months. If this child is mine, I would also like to ask how I was hundreds of miles away that caused her to die." Someone coughed softly. Tham Van Nhu's face turned pale. Thi Chu supported the maid, her voice trembling. “Van Nhu, I…” Tham Van Nhu immediately knelt and crawled at her feet. "Mother, I don't have one. It must be Thua An brother who is afraid of being responsible, so he refuses to accept me." Ta Thua An was so angry that he burst out laughing. "Miss Shen, you can eat rice haphazardly, but you can't accept it haphazardly." The old man's face darkened to the extreme. “So whose child is it?” As soon as this sentence ended, it seemed like the wind from the street became a little colder. Tham Van Nhu cried and shook her head. Finally, Ta Nghien Tu also spoke up. "This matter will be further investigated later. Dismissed first today." I turned my head to look at him. "What's wrong? When you were interrogating me just now, the clan elders didn't say to investigate further later." Ta Nghien Tu's eyes were as sharp as da.a.o. “Tham Chieu Vi, do you still think it's not chaotic enough?” I reached out to Thanh Chi. She immediately presented a notebook. That is Tham Van Nhu's hospital expenditure record book. In my previous life, after being locked up in the backyard, I heard these stories from the mouth of a woman who was sold. Every few days, Ta Nghien Tu brings medicine to Tham Van Nhu's hospital. Night comes, morning returns. The Tham family and the Ta family both pretended not to know. Now, the books are in our hands. I placed the book in condemnation. “Two months ago, Ta Nghien Tu took from the Ta family's pharmacy three boxes of antenatal medicine and four boxes of ginseng.
nourish the blood, take it to Tham Van Nhu's hospital." Tham Van Nhu's crying suddenly stopped. Ta Nghien Tu's face also changed. I asked Thanh Chi to take out another book. "The lady who kept the door of the Tham family recorded that on the seventh day of the second month, the sixteenth day of the second month, and the third day of the third month, Ta Nghien Tu entered Tham Van Nhu's hospital late at night and did not leave until the next morning." Thi Chu suddenly looked at me. “You investigate these things?” I asked in return: "If he behaves uprightly, why is he afraid of others taking notes?" Finally, Ta Nghien Tu also lost his gentleness. “Tham Chieu Vi, you follow your husband's movements, are you still virtuous?” I look at him. "You came into my sister's hospital in the middle of the night, and yet you still talked about your morals with me." Ta Thua An stood next to him and coldly continued. “If you think this child is not related to you, it would be best if you also showed evidence of where you were during those nights.” Ta Nghien Tu looked at him. Ta Thua An never backed down. "When you wanted me to be the child's father, you didn't ask me if I was afraid of losing face or not." The faces of the clan elders became more and more ugly. They finally understood. This is no longer simply that Tham Van Nhu is unmarried and pregnant. But Ta Nghien Tu secretly had an affair with his sister, and wanted to use his wife's reputation to take on the trouble for them. 3 The Ta family elders quickly changed their attitudes. Before that, they wanted to interrogate me. Now, they are starting to advise us again. “Daughter-in-law Nghien Tu, bad things in the house should not be spread outside. Let's talk about today's matter clearly in advance." "After all, you are the wife of the Ta family, and if the Ta family's reputation is ruined, it won't do you any good." "The child in Van Nhu's womb has not yet been investigated clearly, and the outside rumors are not necessarily related to Nghien Tu. Don't act on your emotions." I stood in the middle of the street, listening to one word from them, one word from me. In their previous lives, they were the same.
