Chapter 2
Chapter 2 — On the big wedding day, the husband asked me to meet the boss to negotiate
She can only make audible sounds. The kidnapper tilted his head and thought for a moment, then decisively pointed the knife at Ta Nghien Hanh.
“You take out the check, then jump down there.”
He curled his mouth and smiled coldly, revealing his yellow teeth: "Dare to hesitate any longer, I will throw this little beauty down right away." Ta Nghien Hanh's face was pale. On the way here, he was afraid that I would run away, so he left the banknote on him first. Being able to take out a banknote, she was so scared that her face had no blood left, plus she had a beautiful appearance. The kidnapper confirmed that this was the woman Trinh To To hired him to deal with, and the knife in his hand danced even harder.
“You jump down.”
Seeing Trinh To To's angry moaning, he seemed to understand something, pointed at me, and loudly scolded: "Get out of my way!" I was startled by the bandit's threat, so I quickly "got away" immediately. Before "getting away", Ta Nghien Hanh also wanted to reach out and pull me back: "Ah..." The bandit pulled out the short knife from his waist and threw it at Ta Nghien Hanh: "Be honest with me." In another place by the cliff, there was already a carriage waiting for me. As soon as she saw me appear, maid Nhu Van picked up her cloak and walked over to greet me: "Miss, are you okay?"
“It's okay, is everything arranged okay?”
Being blown by the wind for too long makes me a bit cold. Nhu Van put on my coat, brought the hand warmer, and poured me a cup of hot tea.
“Miss, everything has been arranged well.”
A sip of hot tea fell into my stomach, my whole body warmed up, I lifted the car curtain to look out. Faintly, Ta Nghien Hanh's pitiful screams could still be heard. I did not return to the Marquis Palace, but went to Trang Tu in the suburbs to stay one night. The next day, I calculated the time to return, went straight to my mother-in-law's hospital, and cried so pitifully.
“Mother, yesterday…”
I brought the story of Trinh To To being kidnapped, Ta Nghien Hanh took me to ransom him, and told the story clearly to my mother-in-law. I hid the story of Ta Nghien Hanh pretending to be a man, and even more hid the story of the robbers mistakenly identifying Ta Nghien Hanh as me. A handkerchief soaked in pilot water has a strong tear-inducing effect, and tears fall freely without my control. I raised my tear-filled face and choked up and asked my mother-in-law.
"Mother, those ferocious bandits are truly hateful. Now the husband and Miss Trinh have no news, the daughter-in-law immediately went to report to the officials."
A panic flashed in the mother-in-law's eyes. She quickly stopped me: "Don't report to the officials." I pretended to be full of doubt: "Why can't I report to the officials?" The mother-in-law cleared her throat and began to talk nonsense: "This morning, Nghien Nhi sent someone to deliver the letter."
“Ah.” I just in time showed surprise: "What did the husband say in the letter?"
"The kidnapping story was a misunderstanding. The kidnapper was Lord Trinh's subordinate when he was still alive. The anniversary of Lord Trinh's death is approaching. He wanted To To come back to pay homage to his father."
"That person has always liked to joke around, like a good old man. Every day, To To calls her uncle, and only cooperates with him to tease him for fun."
My face was filled with doubt: "Mother, that bandit is extremely cruel and cruel. In his hand is a very sharp knife."
"He accepted the money check given by her husband, but also forced her husband to jump off the cliff. The daughter-in-law was so scared that she almost lost her soul."
I pat my chest and pretend still looks confused and confused. The mother-in-law pursed her lips, looking at that appearance, she was probably silently scolding Trinh To To a few words in her heart. When she opened her mouth again, her voice carried a bit of profound advice: "Dien Nhi, I know that it's because you care about Nghien Nhi, that's why you're so panicked."
"To To's father, Lord Trinh, is grateful to our Marquis. To To is the daughter of a benefactor, we cannot mistreat her."
"Master Trinh used to be Nghien Nhi's teacher, one day a teacher for the rest of his life as a father. He wrote a letter to tell me that he and To To went to Linh Nam to worship Lord Trinh."
I shed tears again: "Even though the daughter-in-law and husband just got married, husband and wife are one body. No matter what decision the husband makes, the daughter-in-law will definitely support him with all her strength." Seeing that I understood things like that, my mother-in-law nodded with satisfaction: "Good child, I have made you bear the pain. When Nghien Nhi returns, I will tell him to stay with you a lot."
