Chapter 8
Chapter 8 — Statue of the Poison God

Thuy Nhi is deeply in love with Quy Thieu Lang, even if she dies, she doesn't want to do anything to hurt him. But there are many punishments in life more cruel than death. Same as being sold. Being sold to a good home as a slave, and being sold to a low-class place, becoming the plaything of countless men, are completely different. Besides, we had prepared well in advance. You just sold Thuy Nhi's entire family to a human trafficker. The person arranged by my father immediately used a high price to buy them all. On the surface, that person does not have any relationship with the Thoi family. Even if the Quy family thought about this matter and investigated, they could not find any trace. Thuy Nhi had just lost her child, her body was still bleeding, and in her heart she hated Quy Thieu Lang even more. Her entire family's life is in my hands, of course she has to work for me. She dragged her miserable body along to bang the drum to complain in front of Kinh Trieu Doan's palace, publicly announcing that she and Quy Thieu Lang had had an affair for many years. In each bloody cry, she admitted that Quy Thieu Lang had promised to accept her as his concubine. Because of that, he did not hesitate to touch the statue of the god to bring it back to me, making it impossible for me to have children for the rest of my life. This accusation is completely consistent with the fact that the Pearl Blood Marrow was hidden in the praying statue. No matter how talented Quy Thieu Lang is, he cannot argue. It is a crime for a slave to sue his master. Thuy Nhi knows that she has offended both the Quy family and the Thoi family, and even if she survives, she will have to endure enough torment. Wanting to preserve the lives of her parents and relatives, she took one last look at Quy Thieu Lang on the street, then directly hit her head on a pillar and died. That blow completely nailed Quy Thieu Lang to the pillar of humiliation.
“The young master, in order to win a favorable position as a seven-name concubine for the maid he loves, has truly wasted a lot of thought.”
My tears rolled around in my eye sockets, but I clenched my teeth to not let them fall, just said in pain:
"Having been married for two years, I never knew that I would be an obstacle between two people who truly love each other. If that's the case, we will separate, from now on we go our separate ways."
“Uan Nhi, things are not like you think!”
Quy Thieu Lang was completely panicked. He staggered forward and tried to pull my sleeve, but his brother blocked him in front of him and kicked him out. How could he not panic? He lost the ability to have children and became an invalid. Now charged with plotting to murder his wife, his reputation is completely ruined. If they separate, don't say that the noble lady of the royal family can't marry him. Even the daughter of a normal literary family did not bother to get married to him. Two sons, one plotting to harm the elder brother, the other plotting to murder the wife. Your Lady's reputation was also completely lost. Elder Quy used the excuse that she did not teach her children strictly and took her to the family temple to practice and atone for her sins. On the day she left the Quy family, Lady Quy, who had always been extremely elegant, wore only a rough cloth outfit, with only two loyal servants who had served her since childhood. She is very pitiful, but never innocent. In her previous life, she clearly knew that I couldn't get pregnant for many years because Quy Thieu Lang used the Blood Marrow Pearl to frame her. harmful. But not only did she show no mercy, on the contrary, she also used that as a reason to find every way to torment me. What she has to endure now is nothing more than retribution.

After completely turning my face that day, I returned to my mother's house to live. Quy Thieu Lang knelt outside the door of Thoi palace, cried and begged in every way, absolutely refusing to separate. Not only did his father not soften his heart, but on the contrary, he became even more angry, and directly presented a piece to the emperor's court. The emperor was already dissatisfied with the powerful, deep-rooted family. Now that there is a legitimate reason, of course people will not miss the opportunity to oppress the Quy family. The Emperor used the excuse of not teaching his children strictly, got angry and scolded the owner of the Quy family, then personally issued a decree allowing me to separate and remarry. After receiving the holy order, my father and elder brother led more than a hundred servants of the Thoi family and came to the Quy family to inventory every item in my dowry. The treasures that the Lady previously tried to take out of my dowry were all reclaimed. At this point, Quy Thieu Lang completely ended. Old Man Quy's spirit is still quite good. He had just turned forty years old, while his body was healthy and full of strength. If two children can't use it, it's okay to give birth to more. In order to quickly give birth to a son, he took in five young and beautiful concubines in one breath, and his life was even more comfortable and happier than before. The more proud Mr. Quy became, the more he did not want to see his stupid son, Quy Thieu Lang, who had made the whole Quy family lose face. Quy Thieu Lang completely lost his spirit and locked himself in his room every day to drink alcohol. His body became weaker and weaker, and eventually he fell ill and was unable to get up. Before he died, he kept mumbling that he wanted to see me one last time. I won't come, just let Linh Nhi pass on a sentence for me. Linh Nhi hates to the core the hurt Quy Thieu Lang has caused me. She leaned close to his ear, using a voice that only the two of them could hear, slowly saying each word:
"There's something the young master doesn't know. Thuy Nhi has never had an affair with a wild man."
“The child in her womb is your lifeblood.”
“The person who personally ordered the death of his only child in this life.”
“…”
Qui Thieu Lang's eyes suddenly widened. In despair and unwillingness, he breathed his last. The ringleader is dead, and the resentment that has been suppressed in my heart since my previous life has finally been released. Father saw that my mood was much better, so he wanted to arrange to find me a new husband. The civil style of this dynasty was not too conservative, and it was not uncommon for women to remarry twice or thrice. This time, his father no longer paid much attention to the household registration, and only focused on choosing people with good morals and temperament. I smiled and shook my head. Knowing someone's face is difficult to know their heart. Before the bad news was exposed, Quy Thieu Lang was also one of the most elegant gentlemen of the aristocratic family. What about the results? The so-called cause and effect is just that each person has their own type of torment. I have my father and elder brother to support me, and I have a rich dowry with me. Why rush to push yourself into another mud puddle, not knowing what the future will be like? While you're still young, go Throughout the mountains and rivers, freedom and joy are the most important things. Complete
