Chapter 2 — No Date to Meet Again

"Second young lady, the old master has been sending someone to look for you for a whole day. Since you're back, you should quickly go to the main street to pay your respects to the old master." I bowed my head low and silently walked behind the butler to meet my father. As soon as his heel touched the threshold of the main street, a cup of hot tea hit him hard from above, grazed him and plummeted to the ground. The burning tea splashed, drenching a corner of my dress. My father's voice filled with anger and thunder immediately hit my ears: "You naughty girl! Where did you go today?" I bowed my head respectfully and replied discreetly: "Father, my grandfather's family in Qingzhou sent a letter to my daughter, my daughter just went to the service station to send a reply." "Unexpectedly, when I returned, I got lost and walked around for half a day before finding the way home." I never said these words. lie, while outside the palace, I actually sent a reply letter to my maternal grandfather in Thanh Chau. Years ago, before my aunt passed away, my mother was in Thanh Chau and arranged a marriage for me. The person chosen was Wei Du - the great-uncle's maternal grandson. The great-uncle's mother's family background was also an extremely famous merchant family in Thanh Chau, with a rich family and wealth not inferior to her grandfather's. Furthermore, this cousin has been wiser than others since he was young, and is extremely talented in studies. That year, when the princess returned to Thanh Chau to visit relatives, the great-uncle took the initiative to secretly mention this marriage. After observing and seeing for herself, Princess Di felt that Wei Du was indeed a rare good husband in the world. In people's hearts, they are naturally extremely satisfied and moved. After returning to Kinh, he immediately reported the story clearly to his father to ask for a decision. When my aunt was still alive, my father treated me well. Furthermore, he also had to rely heavily on his concubine's dowry for expenses and preparations for socializing with officials. After all, it was just the marriage of a lowly concubine, so he casually waved his hand and agreed. By nature, he didn't care about me at all, so after his wife passed away, he seemed to put this matter to the back of his mind. Not long ago, my aunt sent a letter to inform me that Nguy Du passed the Bachelor's exam last year. In a day or two, he will return to Kinh to participate in the Association exam. At the same time, he promised to wait until he received the gold medal and passed his doctorate, then he would immediately propose to me and officially ask me to marry him. In his previous life, it would be another month before Wei Yu set foot in the capital. As soon as he arrived, he immediately sent a greeting card to his father's palace. It's just that at that time, I was soon forced to hastily marry Luong Sam, imprisoned and miserable in the depths of the Marquis Palace with no way to escape. In this life, I wrote a letter to beg him to speed up the time and quickly come to Ta Palace to propose to me. Because I understand my father's nature very well, he will absolutely never accept being stuck in a deadlock or sitting on his hands and knees. If today's matter doesn't work out, you will definitely think of hundreds of other ways to get rid of me and marry Luong Sam. My father furrowed his eyebrows but didn't bother to dig deeper. He basically didn't care about my going back and forth or contacting my maternal grandfather's family. His eyes stared and examined the precious stone on my body for a long time, then finally revealed an extremely satisfied smile and said: "Ky Thu, you were born with such a beautiful appearance, it must have been created by nature, your future is great."

This government cannot be lost. Today was originally a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but it's a pity that you don't know how to seize it yourself." "However, the father has already accepted the bride price from the Marquis Palace, the wedding date is set for two months later. When the wedding day comes, you should replace your sister and step into the palanquin." The wedding date was set for two months later, compared to the time when I was forced to marry Luong Sam in my previous life, which was a month later. I still had enough time to carve out a way out for myself. I didn't dare to raise my head, I just deliberately looked shy and timid and whispered in a low voice: "Father, I don't dare... Little Marquis is inherently devoted to you." Sister." "If my daughter had the audacity to replace her sister, and the little Marquis was so angry, I'm afraid our Ta family wouldn't have had any good endings." Father glanced at me and used a reassuring and coaxing tone: "You don't have to worry so falsely. Once the father has decided to let you marry, he will automatically find a way to force the Marquis to grit his teeth and admit to this marriage. "I laughed coldly in my heart. Your so-called "measure", after all, isn't it just putting all the blame on me? All you have to do is tell Luong Sam that it's because of my cruel intentions, jealousy and envy that my sister has a good relationship. beautiful, that's why he secretly used a despicable trick to exchange the palanquin. With just one word, he can completely remove all responsibility and make himself innocent. No matter how angry Luong Sam is, he can only find me to vent his anger. Moreover, at that time, the Marquis will absolutely not be able to return the person back to the Ta family. I don't have enough strength to openly resist him. If I open my mouth to refuse, he will definitely go back to his old ways, directly order someone to knock me unconscious, then tie me up and throw me straight into the palanquin. My heart is constantly turning around to find a solution, but on the surface I still have to pretend to be obedient and obedient: "My daughter, everything is willing to listen to your arrangements and be in charge. father." Father smiled with satisfaction, changed the subject and continued: "You are still understanding and obedient. As far as my father can see, the little marquis doesn't seem to be completely indifferent to you." "Today, after he woke up, he was still in the mansion looking everywhere for your whereabouts." "By the time you get married there, taking advantage of this stunningly beautiful appearance to seduce and bind his heart is not a difficult task." As soon as I heard those words, an extreme terror suddenly arose in my heart. At this moment, I and I Luong Sam has only had the chance to meet her twice. After waking up, he didn't go look for the murderer who had cruelly kicked him, but instead went everywhere to look for a concubine like me. This is really too unusual and strange. Could it be that Luong Sam has also come back to life? Thinking of this possibility, my whole body suddenly felt cold, and my father's limbs trembled When I changed, I looked at me suspiciously, not understanding why my face suddenly turned pale, without even a drop of blood. "Why is your face so unsightly? Is it the cold wind outside in the afternoon? Hurry down and rest first." 04. I returned to my room with the confusion and inconsolable fear. Maybe it was because I was thinking too much.

Many things piled up, that night I fell deeply into a long dream full of dreams. In the dream, I was once again imprisoned, miserable all my life in that place of Marquis that was as deep as a living grave. After marrying Luong Sam, he treated me extremely badly and cruelly. He often used matters of the bedroom and bed to humiliate and torture me, always using all kinds of ways to torment and mess with my body. I bit my lips to the point of bleeding, determined not to let out even a single moan. He then got close to my ear and let out a low, sarcastic mockery: "Madam, isn't all of this something you've done with all your heart and mind?" It's absolutely ridiculous." I could only close my eyes, speechless, letting the tears of humiliation roll down from the corners of my eyes, soaking into the lonely brocade mattress. It seems that as long as you don't listen, don't look, don't think, this pain that gnaws at your heart will automatically lessen a bit. It is also because my reputation has been completely smeared and completely destroyed, so from top to bottom in the Marquis Palace, from the master to the servants, no one even looks at me with half an eye, and despises me to the end. Every time Luong Sam is not at the palace, they don't even bother to deliver the usual rice and soup to my room on time. Later, when news spread loudly in the capital that the Ta family, in the name of the eldest lady, had their marriage stolen, his cold heart and cold heart did not care about the world, so he proactively asked to go to the hermitage to practice in solitude. After Luong Sam heard the news, his heart was filled with endless torment and guilt towards his sister, so he turned himself into a crazy person, changed his appearance and poured all his sins and torture on me. I also tried to explain to Luong Sam that that day in Ta Palace, the person who kicked him unconscious was not me at all. But he didn't believe it, just coldly questioned me: "If it wasn't you who did it, then who did it?" I deeply hate my father's selfishness and lovelessness. Of course, I will no longer be foolish enough to continue to hide and cover up his sins. I frankly told Luong Sam that it was my sister who suddenly went crazy that was the reason she kicked him unconscious. Father saw that and immediately plotted to use me as a chess piece in his life. After listening, Luong Sam just ferociously grabbed the person and then violently slammed it down on the ground, violently pressed my hands together and then frantically used force to attack: "Ta Ky Thu! You cruelly took away A Van's promised marriage, forcing her to bury her youth for the next half of her life, alone in a cold monastery." "Why have you come to this point, you still want to shamelessly fabricate stories." Such a clumsy, despicable lie to defame and harm her?" He refused to believe what I said ten thousand times. In Luong Sam's eyes, Ta Uyen Van is a noble fairy on cloud nine, and a fairy will never do anything wrong. So the person who committed that heinous, despicable and shameless mistake could only be a vile person like Ta Ky Thu. Thinking of this, a wave of resentment suddenly rose up in my chest. I suddenly didn't want to continue gritting my teeth and patiently enduring all of this any longer. Unconvinced, I spoke up, let out a sarcastic, sarcastic word right in Luong Sam's face: "Luong Sam, when you open your mouth, you say you love and swear to my sister, saying that missing her is the biggest regret and regret.

in your life." "But that temple on the outskirts of the capital is less than half an hour away from your Marquis' Palace. It's been more than half a year since your sister was taken there. Have you ever set foot there to visit her?" Luong Sam seemed to be stabbed by my words into the most selfish and despicable corner hidden deep in his heart. Force: "Shut up! If it weren't for the kind of despicable trickery like you, I would have married a good wife like A Van." "I didn't go see her, it's just because I accidentally married someone like you, and I no longer have the face to face her anymore!" He panicked, frantically looking for reasons to justify himself, as if he only needed to blame all the blame on me, then he could cover up his ungrateful nature. My own ungratefulness and selfishness. My father truly understood the psychology of men. Luong Sam despised me, but he couldn't help but fall deeply into my beautiful appearance. After that day, I fell ill for the first time. Luong Sam invited countless famous doctors to diagnose me, but all the answers he received were due to the sadness that had accumulated in my heart. I was exhausted, there was no way to save me, I didn't have much longer to live. Luong Sam didn't believe in fate. He frantically ordered people to prepare all kinds of rare, once-in-a-lifetime nutrients to force me to swallow, but my body was still like a lamp in the wind, day by day, it was clearly withering away until the last moments of my life. He could only hug me, helpless and confused, asking: "This marriage. It's obvious that it's because of your own planning. What exactly are you complaining about? "I didn't bother to give him a single word in return, just silently counting down my final days in my heart. The day I died, the weather that day was truly extremely beautiful. The sunlight was radiant, the blue sky was sky-high, ten thousand miles without a single cloud. When the warm rays of sunlight I hadn't seen for a long time gently fell on my skinny body, the last breath of resentment. The suffocation in my chest that had been holding me for so long was finally released and dissolved. In my last blurry vision, I vaguely saw the figure of Luong Sam holding a bowl of food, frantically rushing towards me with a look of panic and despair. Before I closed my eyes, my mind suddenly flashed back to the time when my wife was still alive Holding me in his arms, stroking my hair while meticulously counting each item of dowry that he had painstakingly prepared for me: "Take my sister, wait until you grow up, don't marry into a wealthy family, find a lover with a loyal and sincere heart to spend the rest of your life with." It's just a pity that my relationship, right from the start, was already a mile away These thorns of mine are written everywhere: "It's not worth it." 05. I woke up from a long nightmare, my whole body was covered in cold sweat. All the painful things in my previous life had finally become the past, passing away like smoke and clouds. In this life, I wanted to live a good life, for my own sake, early the next morning, I stood up and walked to my sister's hospital Looking at her condition, her condition today seems quite good, she is mentally alert, and seems to be able to communicate with her

I was sitting quietly at the dressing table, needle and thread in hand, face filled with joy and happiness, meticulously embroidering the brocade piece to wear as a robe. Seeing my appearance, a clear trace of surprise flashed across her eyes. The relationship between us as sisters has always been extremely weak, as calm as stagnant pond water, I rarely take the initiative to go find her. She gently put down the needle and thread in her hand, smiled gently and asked me: "Sister Thu, why are you so interested in coming to see me today?" I didn't want to continue to cover up and hide from her anymore, so I frankly opened my mouth, exposing my father's plan to replace her in marriage to her: "Sister, because I'm afraid of your madness, I'm planning to force you to marry me and step into the Marquis' Palace instead." She listened. After saying those words, his face still looked extremely calm, as quiet as a lake surface without any ripples, just softly asking me back: "Sister Thu, how do you personally feel about this person Luong Sam?" "I'm afraid this disease of mine is incurable and cannot get better in this lifetime. If you have feelings for him in your heart, then marrying instead of me, after all, there is nothing bad at all." Turns out she knew from a long time ago. clearly understanding the dirty scheme her father was secretly planning, she was even willing to let me take her place. But she was willing, but I was ten thousand times unwilling. I absolutely did not want to go down the same path and marry a man like Luong Sam again. I raised my eyes and looked straight at her, my eyes were determined and stubborn as I spoke: "Sister, I don't want to." "I don't like Luong Sam at all, and I don't want to marry him. I've had a fiance since a long time ago in Thanh Chau. He promised to wait until he passed his doctorate and immediately marry me." After hearing that, she was stunned for a while, with a bitter, slight smile on her lips. whispering self-mockingly: "It turns out you don't want it... But with this current half-human, half-ghost form of mine, how can I marry Luong Sam?" "If I just completely give up and end everything here, at least I can leave in his mind the most beautiful, perfect appearance of the past." I stood there indifferently, not knowing what words to find to comfort her, because I knew Luong Sam too well in my past life. Before, he was inherently an ungrateful and ungrateful person. She gently used her hand to caress the winding embroidered lines on the robe, as if she had just made some great determination: "If you don't want to marry Luong Sam, then let this matter go, tell your fiance to hurry up and decide the marriage as soon as possible." Huyen." "I want to make this bet, bet on whether Luong Sam really loves me or not." I moved my lips to say something to stop her, but in the end I still swallowed the words I wanted to say back into my heart. There are walls where men, in the end, have to stab themselves head-first until they have a dent in their head before they know the way to turn back. Ta Uyen Van is so deeply in love and passionate about Luong Sam, even if I say everything right now, exposing all of Luong Sam's bad habits and ungrateful nature, she will absolutely never believe a word of my words. I bowed slightly to pay my respects and thanked her. I only prayed that in this life, she would be able to fulfill her wishes and not have to meet a tragic end like me.

days ago.
