Chapter 2 — Six Falls From Horses

Again, he borrowed another loan from everywhere, collected ten thousand taels, handed it all over to Huyen Nuong, and placed it on the door "Toi Anh fell off his horse". When my sister told me this, she was so angry that her face turned pale: "I've never seen anyone so despicable." I patted her hand: "It's okay, otherwise how can we get some money from him? Have you finished placing your order yet?" Sister A nodded: "Place 20,000, put Van Ky injured." "That's good." After I got on the horse, sister A gently pulled the corner of my shirt behind me, her voice rising: "Brother Anh, maybe we shouldn't take revenge anymore, I'm afraid something unexpected will happen..." I turned around and smiled at her: "Sister A, if I can't let go of this anger, I won't be able to get over it in this life. Don't worry, I know it in my heart." I pushed my horse slowly into the middle of the yard. Things from the past appear one after another in my mind. 6 The first time I fell off my horse, the other horse suddenly went crazy, its hooves slipped and then suddenly deviated from the direction. Before I could react, I was thrown away, my knees hitting crushed stone. It hurt so much that tears immediately flowed from my eyes. Van Ky rushed to kneel beside me to support me, his eyes were red, his voice trembling: "Brother Anh, how are you? Don't scare me." The second time was when running around the corner, the horse suddenly rushed towards the fence like crazy. I desperately pulled on the reins, but was still thrown out. That time I injured my right leg and it was swollen for half a month. Van Ky stood next to my bed, his eyes were dark, as if he hadn't slept well for several nights. The third time I fell down, my back rubbed against a patch of rough sand and gravel, and my skin was scratched. I lay on my stomach to heal for twenty days before I dared to turn over. That day Van Ky stood outside the door for a long time, not entering. Sister A said he was crying. My heart tightened, but I worried that he would feel even more uncomfortable. The fourth time was the heaviest. That black horse went crazy and rushed forward, I was dragged out a few steps, my ribs hit the fence, I lay for a whole month unable to get out of bed. Van Ky came every day to watch, but at night he did not leave, lying down next to my bed to take a nap. One time I woke up from a daze and heard him talking to my brother outside: "Cui Chieu, please scold me, it's my fault, I really hate that it wasn't me who fell." The leader said nothing, just sighed heavily. I was in the room when I heard it, and my heart softened. The fifth time I rolled down from the horse, my left leg was sprained, limping for more than half a month. That time, Van Ky was very angry, scolding the horsemaster until dog blood covered his head, asking why unexpected things kept happening. The sixth time I was thrown down, my forehead hit the saddle stirrup, leaving a scar, still faintly printed on the tail of my eyebrow. 7 I sat on the horse's back, bowed my head and looked at the old scar on my palm. I don't know how many times I fell down and was cut by rubble. Van Ky once held my hand and said he would definitely not betray me in this life. His tears fell onto my palm, hot as real. But it's fake. Six falls, six tricks. Every scar on my body was given to me by him. I raised my head and tightened my bow. Van Ky stood twenty meters away, wearing a white shirt and a jade hat, with a golden pear on his head. The sunlight falling on him was truly a bountiful style. On the side of the yard, there was a woman in a low voice, exclaiming in a low voice: "Mr. Van is really in love, willing to try with Miss Thoi for the seventh time." "I don't know what kind of blessings Lady Cui had in her past life." "Sigh, why are the lovesick husbands all from someone else's family..." Van Ky heard those words, slightly curled the corners of his lips, giving me a gentle smile: "Brother Anh, don't be afraid." I also smiled at him, clamping the horse's stomach. The horse suddenly neighed softly, swayed slightly, and a chorus of exclamations rang out in the yard. We sway a little, amidst the sound

Everyone inhaled the cold air, I drew my bow and nocked arrows. Van Ky's smile stiffened. He doesn't understand why I don't fall down. I let go. The arrow tore through the wind and flew away. 8I heard the sound of the wind being torn apart. I thought it would last a long time, but in reality it was just a blink of an eye. The arrow grazed three inches below his navel, pinning it into the grass behind him. At this moment, everything fell silent. Everyone was stunned, including Van Ky himself. He looked down at his robe, then looked up at me. Then his legs went weak, he sat down on the ground without a trace, the blood on his face drained away, leaving only pale white. A puddle of liquid slowly seeped out from his clothes. First there was a shrill scream, I don't know which woman it was. Immediately after that, everyone's sound was like a rushing ocean wave, and the Van family rushed down from their seats. Huyen Nuong crawled and ran over. Van Ky's mother rushed forward to hug her child who was sitting on the ground, tears pouring down like rain. When she turned her head to look at me, her eyes were filled with resentment: "You are truly a mischievous person. I already told you that you would hurt my child!"
