Chapter 5 — Proud Mother-in-law Loves Me Like An Ancestor
My sisters and I stood next to them, eyes wide open. The fighting power is too strong! Lieu Phi Phi was scolded until tears rolled around her eyes and trembled as she said:
“Auntie, I… I didn't mean that…”
"I don't care what you mean! Protect!"
My mother-in-law shouted. Two bodyguards immediately appeared.
“‘Please’ this Ms. Lieu come out for me! From now on, don't let her step even half a step into our gate!”
Lieu Phi Phi was dragged out by the hand, losing all face. My mother-in-law was still angry, turned around, held my hand, and said sadly:
"Nim Niem, don't pay attention to that crazy dog. It affects the mood of the child and the baby, it's not worth it."
I was so moved that tears welled up in my eyes, holding my mother-in-law's arm and rubbing it.
"Mom, you're so good! Just now, the look of you scolding someone is so cool!"
My mother-in-law made me laugh and gently poked my nose.
"That's you! If I don't protect you, then who will? You are the great treasure of our family!"
I hid behind my mother-in-law, facing the direction Lieu Phi Phi was pulled away, raising my hand in a V sign. Want to fight me? First ask if my mother-in-law with explosive fighting power agrees! Liu Fei Phi's antics are just a small musical accompaniment. Co Canh Tham's plan to "return to his room" is still proceeding with difficulty. Seeing that all methods declared failure, he began to give up a bit. I look at him every day from a flower garden, using binoculars to look at me, but I feel a little reluctant. After all, I am also a grown woman with normal needs. That night, waiting for my mother-in-law to fall asleep, I secretly searched for my phone and sent Co Canh Tham a text message. 【Husband, are you sleeping yet?】 The other party almost answered in a moment. 【Not sleeping yet! I miss you so much that I can't sleep! Wife, I finally remember you!】 There is also a string of crying symbols attached to the back. I looked at it and was both angry and funny. My fingers move quickly, typing. 【Don't rush, wait until mom is asleep, I'll leave the door for you.】 After sending, I added another sentence. 【Be careful, don't get discovered.】 Click send. But a second later, my heart sank to the bottom. I… apparently… sent it to the wrong person. I sent this message to our family group. In the group were me, Co Canh Tham, father-in-law, mother-in-law, and also my sister-in-law who is abroad... The family group was as silent as death. Three seconds later, the group exploded. Father-in-law: 【???】 Brother-in-law: 【Whew! Buffalo sister-in-law! Is this a plan to act out a deep love scene in the middle of the night?】 Co Canh Tham: 【……】 Perhaps you are also aware of the seriousness of the problem. As for the mother-in-law, she called directly. My hands shook, I almost threw the phone away.
“Hello… mom…”
"Nim Niem! Don't be afraid!"
On the other end of the line, the mother-in-law's voice was both urgent and angry.
"Is that bastard threatening you? Wait there, I'll come right away! Today I'll see if he dares to touch a strand of your hair!"
“No, mom, listen to my explanation…”
“Tut tut tut tut…”
The phone is disconnected. Before I could react, I heard the sound of rapid footsteps downstairs and my mother-in-law screaming.
"Quick! Everyone wake up for me! Level one level! Protect young lady!"
I ran to the window and looked down. Oh my God. The whole villa's lights were on. The mother-in-law wore pajamas, held a baseball bat, and personally led the team. The housekeeper, bodyguards, and servants all mobilized, surrounding my bedroom until the water couldn't get through. That atmosphere is even more flamboyant than in ancient times Great protector of the emperor. Co Canh Tham must have also seen the movement here and sent me a desperate text message. 【Wife, tonight what separates us is not the flower garden, but the Milky Way.】 I looked at the copper wall and iron wall outside the window, covering my face and rolling on the bed laughing. That damn charm that has no place to be mine! Yet it caused a first-level war in the family. Co Canh Tham, I'm sorry, because of your innocence, I can only temporarily let you bear the resentment. That night, my mother-in-law personally guarded outside my bedroom door all night. The next morning, when she saw me with two giant dark circles, her first sentence was:
“Nien Niem, don't be afraid, mom has reinforced the electrical grid next to the guest house, even if it grows wings, it will be difficult to fly!”
Me: “…” Mom, there's really no need. After the "wrongly sent message" incident, Co Canh Tham was completely at peace. His eyes looked at me from plaintive, to desperate, and finally to calmly seeing through the world. He no longer tried to sneak into the main building, nor did he play any more tricks. Every day, I go to work on time, come home, go to the garden, and squat in the corner with my Alaskan dog named "Vuong Tai", contemplating life. One person and one dog, two lonely backs, looking extremely miserable. Soon my father-in-law's sixtieth birthday came. The Co family held a solemn birthday party, inviting all relatives and friends. This is also the first time Co Canh Tham publicly appeared in front of so many people after being "exiled". I can feel that today you want to save some dignity as the head of a family. He was wearing a well-fitting white suit, his hair combed to perfection, and holding a bouquet of champagne roses in his hand, looking just like the cold and noble General of the past. Halfway through the party, he picked up the microphone and walked onto the stage.
“Dear distinguished guests, thank you for coming to my father's birthday celebration today.”
“Taking this opportunity, I still have something to say.”
