Chapter 5 — Peace Is Home
"Look at her current appearance. The Hua family's fortune has been destroyed by her. Now she's even putting her life on the line, demanding money from me in the middle of the road. When she can't get money from me anymore, how do you think she'll treat you?" The mother's whole body trembled, her cloudy eyes flashed with panic. She unconsciously turned her head to look at Hua Thanh Ha. Hua Thanh Ha's thoughts were exposed, her eyes avoided but she still shouted loudly: "Don't stay here and separate us! She is my biological mother, how can I leave her?" In Vinh Lac Ward, in the eastern part of the city, the Hua family's eldest daughter, Hua Thanh Ha, was unable to pay off her gambling debt, so she signed her name at the casino. If she doesn't collect fifty taels in three days, she will use the Hua family's land deed and the Hua family's matriarch to mortgage it for the casino, to act as a servant." As soon as the words fell, the sound of cold air suddenly sounded around. Even the cashier's expression changed. Let's not mortgage the house, but also mortgage your biological mother to the casino to work as an errand boy? This is a great crime of disloyalty and will be struck by lightning! Mother stiffened on the spot, looking at Hua Thanh Ha in disbelief, her lips trembling violently. "Thanh Ha, you... did you mortgage your mother to the casino?" Hua Thanh Ha's face turned pale, she took two steps back in panic, waving her hands repeatedly. "No! Mother, don't listen to her nonsense! That contract was forced by the casino people to sign, you didn't look carefully!" "Hua Thanh Tu, you forged government documents. I will sue you!" I took the paper back and coldly looked at her. "Is it fake or not? The great seal of Thuan Thien Phu is stamped on it. You just go to Thuan Thien Phu to beat the drum to complain." "Let's see if the manager of the casino will bring out the original and smash it in your face right on the street." I looked at my mother again, looking at her face that seemed to have aged ten years in the blink of an eye. "Mother, that year for fifty taels of bride price, You want to marry me to the old man in the west of the city to be your next wife." "Now your good daughter, because of fifty taels of gambling debt, wants to mortgage you to the casino to be an errand girl." "You are doing it, the sky is watching. There are causes and effects, you can't help but believe." I turned around, no longer looking at the two mothers with ashen faces on the ground, holding Minh Chau's hands. "Going back to the palace."09 On the carriage back to the palace, Minh Chau was still holding on. ” 09 On the carriage back to the palace, Minh Chau always held my hand tightly.it. Although she was still young, she understood the argument on the street just now. "Mother, your grandmother is so pitiful." Her voice was soft, carrying a bit of hesitation. I patted her head, disobeying her words, and looked at her seriously. "Minh Chau, do you think she's pitiful?" Minh Chau thought and nodded, her big round eyes filled with pity. "She knelt down and bowed her head, bleeding a lot." "But she's pitiful because of her own tolerance, creating bad consequences." Minh Chau was raised in a boudoir from a young age, respected by the servants in the palace, loved by her parents, it's not strange to have such thoughts. I held her hand and slowly guided her. "If today I am soft-hearted and give fifty taels of silver, tomorrow her eldest daughter will owe five hundred taels." "At that time, she will ask me to take your jewelry, even the property of the Tran Bac Marquis Palace to fill that bottomless hole." "Minh Chau, there are some people in this world, if you treat them well, it will not change your gratitude, it will only make them more greedy and demanding more. Grandmother An ancestor is a person
Like that, I don't deserve pity." Minh Chau seemed to understand but also didn't understand, nodded slightly, but held my hand tighter. "Mother hostage." Returning to the Marquis Palace, Tham Tu Yen was already waiting in the main courtyard. Seeing that my expression was still normal, he silently breathed a sigh of relief, pulled me to sit down and ordered someone to serve me hot tea. "I've heard about the things outside. That copy of the file..." "It was last night that I told the housekeeper to come to Thuan Thien Phu to get it." I raised the tea cup and took a sip. "I had long ago sent someone to follow Hua Thanh Ha. That sister stepped into a place like Vinh Lac Phuong, how could she come out wholeheartedly?" Tham Tu Yen sighed softly and grabbed my hand. "If you don't want to take care of it, just leave it to me to handle." "No need." I shook my head. "Thuan Thien Phu has already filed a case. Casinos using living people as collateral is a violation of Dai Luong law. Hua Thanh Ha forged a land contract and was involved in a gambling gathering. Thuan Thien Phu's government will not miss this opportunity to make achievements." "As for the Hua family, that is the fate they themselves chose, they cannot blame others." A few days later, Thuan Thien Phu's people sealed off Vinh Lac Phuong, and at the same time arrested Hua Thanh Ha in prison. Hua family's house was previously used as mortgage by Hua Thanh Ha, the interest piled up on the principal, and was finally taken away. The mother was taken by the gang. The casino's foot kicked him out of the house and wandered down the street.
