Chapter 6 — My Husband Forced Me to Serve Him, I Flipped the Books to Collect Debt
"Phung Thien inherited the fortune, the Emperor's edict wrote: Lam Tu Vien's virtue has shortcomings, is not worthy of use, from today he is dismissed from the position of editor of the Hanlin Academy, he will never be employed!"
“Try it!”
The curtain in Lam Tu Vien's hand fell to the ground and rolled into the mud. His knees were weak, his whole body fell to the ground, as if all the bones in his body had been stripped clean.
“No… no way…”
“Ten years of studying… my path to becoming an official… my great ambition…”
As if he was crazy, he rushed forward and grabbed the eunuch's shirt to pass the instructions.
"Gong Cong, I was wronged! It was that poisonous woman who framed me!"
The eunuch hated him, lifted his foot and kicked him hard, kicking him away.
"Is it unfair? The story between you and your sister-in-law has spread throughout more than half of the capital!"
"The Emperor doesn't banish you to Ninh Co Thap, it's already illegal to show mercy, so don't quickly kneel down and thank him!"
After the eunuch left, Lam Tu Vien lay on the ground, letting out desperate screams like a wild animal. Lieu Thi hid behind the door, looking at Lam Tu Vien who had lost all his officials, a trace of regret and calculation flashed in her eyes. She knew that this man... was completely useless. She is no longer able to follow him and live out her days as his wife. People, once cornered, will often do extremely ridiculous things. Lam Tu Vien still has the dream of coming to me to ask to reconnect with her old love. In the middle of winter in December, heavy snow filled the sky. My carriage stopped in front of the Tu Tien Cac restaurant in the capital. Today, I came here to hold a party for a distinguished guest. As soon as I got off the horse-drawn carriage and followed the foot pedal, a beggar with ragged clothes and a foul-smelling body rushed straight towards me.
"Nhu Y! Nhu Y, you finally agreed to meet me!"
Our rescue team immediately rushed forward and fiercely pinned that person down on the snowy ground. I bowed my head and looked closely. Unexpectedly, it was Lam Tu Vien. He was so thin that he was only skin and bones, his face was full of cracks due to the cold, and he no longer had half of the appearance of the young actor of the past.
"Nhu Y, I was wrong! I really know I was wrong!"
He lay prostrate on the snowy ground, crying until tears were running down his nose, even trying to reach out to touch the hem of my precious fox fur coat.
"Liu Thi is a flirtatious bitch! Seeing that I lost my official position, she took all my last bit of money and ran away!"
"Now I'm empty-handed, I don't even have a place to live anymore."
"Nhu Y, we are husband and wife! Before, you loved me so much and treated me so thoughtfully!"
"As long as you are willing to let me come back, I swear that I will only treat you well from now on. I will offer you tea and water, and I will be a buffalo and a horse to repay you!"
He raised his head, his eyes flickering with the passionate light of hope. Perhaps he thought that my decision that day was just a temporary temper tantrum. He thought that as long as he bowed his head and admitted his mistake, a merchant's daughter like me would be moved to be grateful and welcome him back. I looked down at him from above, like I was looking at a maggot that made people nauseous.
“Does the husband and wife tie their hair?”
I laughed out loud, my voice colder than the cold December wind.
“Lin Tu Vien, you also deserve to mention four that word?”
“What do you think you are, worthy of making me Tham Nhu Y turn around and eat old grass again?”
“Before, when you were still carrying an official, I didn't even hesitate to sweep you out the door like a pile of trash.”
"Now you are nothing more than a useless person, not even better than a beggar. What right do you have to think that I will look at you one more time?"
I took a step back, disgusted and used my handkerchief to cover my mouth and nose.
"Throw him away for me, don't dirty the ground of the Immortal Gathering Pavilion, and don't ruin the pleasure of me and the distinguished guest."
“Who dares to ruin Boss Tham's elegant mood?”
A low, magnetic voice echoed from inside the tavern. Right after that, a pair of black shoes embroidered with auspicious clouds with sunken patterns stopped right next to me. The person who had just arrived was wearing a dark black robe, bright eyebrows and bright eyes, and an intimidating aura. It is the major general who has won glorious victories in the dynasty and is also the biggest business partner of the Tham family today - Tieu Tinh Tran.
