Chapter 3 — Mother's Long Minh Lamp

3 "Actually I know, but I also think they're right. You think I'm not worthy, but you don't leave me, that's why you dare to carelessly hurt me over and over again!" The fire swept through Tong Han Thinh's hair, his face turned pale, he put out the fire and shouted: "Lam Nam, when you're angry, you have to know where to look, this is a temple, not a market!" Diep Thanh Nguyet hid behind him, his eyes full of anger. hehe, but her voice sounded pitiful: "Senior brother, it's all my fault. If I hadn't returned home, this wouldn't have happened. Ms. Lam Nam, you can rest assured, tomorrow I will resign and go abroad, and will never come back to bother you again." The more miserable she spoke, the deeper Tong Han Thinh's disappointed eyes looked at me. "Wherever I go, I did nothing wrong. The mistake is hers, the small is big, it's okay. The lion's leg was on his head!" He turned to me, his voice cold: "Lam Nam, I'll give you one last chance, apologize to Nguyet Nguyet!" Melted candle wax fell on the back of my hand, the pain was nothing compared to the bitterness in my heart. "Why should I apologize? I'm the one who was harmed. Did I say I forced her to go abroad? I still wished you two a hundred years of happiness!" "Lam Nam, I'm leaving now, don't be sarcastic."Tong Han Thinh pulled her hand and roared angrily: "Lam Nam, don't force me to break up with you!" Hearing that, I walked straight closer: "Break up? That's not your turn to say. I dumped you a long time ago, you know?" His eyes flashed with tension, immediately blocking Diep Thanh Nguyet's face when he saw me still holding a burning candle in my hand: "Lam Nam, put down the candle first. If anything happens to Thanh Nguyet, I absolutely will not forgive you..." I interrupted, my voice cold: "I wouldn't dare touch her, she has your back behind me. I - an ordinary person, dare to poke you?" Hearing that, he paused, then suddenly realized I was referring to Diep Thanh Nguyet's provocative statuses online. He breathed a sigh of relief, his voice lowered: "Lam Nam, if you're jealous, just say it directly, no need to make such a fuss. I know I've been negligent with you lately, wait for me..." It's that sentence again. He always used superficial coaxing to escape, while I was not only angry because of the ambiguous relationship with Diep Thanh Nguyet, but also because of his own indifference and coldness. "Shut up!" - I interrupted, not bothering to hide my distaste. "Even if you and Diep Thanh Nguyet get married and have children, I don't care. But if you dare touch my mother's longevity lamp, I will risk my life with you!" For the first time, I clearly saw the distaste in his eyes. He stepped back slightly, then lowered his voice: "Nam Nam, how is your health?" My eyes were red and I choked: "Very good." So good that he came down early to wait for me. He couldn't hear the choking in my voice, but breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, I told you, it's definitely okay. I told her to try for a few more days, I'll finish treating a few patients, and will come back to do surgery for her. So, are you satisfied?" I didn't bother to answer, just took a step back, holding the candle in my hand high: "If you know what to do, then go away!" He darkened his face, then deliberately held Diep Thanh Nguyet's hand and knitted ten fingers, as if to challenge him. wake up: "Lam Nam, let's see how long you can be stubborn!" In the eyes of the guests in the temple, I was exhausted, smiled bitterly, put the candle back in its original place, bowed my head and apologized to the temple. After that, I came to the row of Truong Minh lights. I don't know if it was an illusion or not, but among the hundreds of lights, only my mother's was the brightest, as if she was comforting me. I couldn't hold back my tears and fell freely. I sat down, crying until my whole body was shaking. … Then I gave

Mother's ashes returned to her hometown. Since the day my father passed away, my mother took me away, the old house was also covered with dust. Looking at the desolate house, I was determined to clean it up. The next day, when I went to the market to buy things, I saw that the gate to my house had been broken. The small table and small chair that my father had built for me when I was a child were smashed. My mother's clothes that were left out to dry in the sun were also thrown around on the ground, covered in dust and dirt. Diep Thanh Nguyet stood in the middle of the field, arrogantly ordering the crowd to follow. My blood seemed to boil, I rushed forward and shouted: "Stop! What are you doing? It's illegal to arbitrarily break into someone else's house. Believe it or not, I'll call the police to arrest them all!"
