Chapter 9 — The day I gave birth to my two children, I gave birth to myself again

Tran Tran said:

“The loan application has not yet been disbursed.”

“Currently the file is being held at the review stage.”

“Our side has already sent a document requesting a blockade.”

I held my daughter in my arms and slowly breastfed her. The baby suckled very slowly. The corners of his mouth were full of milk. I bowed my head to look at my child.

"He intended to take my mother and my child's house... to raise To Man's flower shop."

Tran Tran was silent. Giang Chanh sat next to him. Clench your hands until they turn white.

“I... I just want to tear him apart.”

I shook my head.

“Don't get your hands dirty.”

Tran Tran turned the computer screen towards me.

“I suggest proceeding in three directions at the same time.”

"The first."

“Get custody of the child.”

"Currently, you are the one directly taking care of the two children. The hospital records clearly state that Co Dinh Xuyen was absent during the birth and deliberately used postpartum mental health reasons to steal the children. This is extremely unfavorable for him."

“Reclaiming property.”

“Any money he gives to a third person during the marriage can be requested to be repaid.”

“Money to buy a house.”

“Jewelry money.”

“Bride price.”

“Money for the wedding.”

“Money for wedding photography.”

“Flower shop investment money.”

“Every single item must be listed.”

“Sue for infringement of honor.”

“He spread the news everywhere that you had a mental disorder.”

“At least force him to publicly apologize in writing.”

I nodded slightly.

“And To Man.”

Tran Tran looked at me.

“How do you plan to deal with her?”

“To Man knows very well.”

“Know I'm not divorced.”

“Knew I was pregnant.”

“Knowing all that money came from me.”

“She can't escape.”

Tran Tran nodded. I hugged my daughter tighter.

“No one is allowed to escape.”

The days that followed. Co Dinh Xuyen continues to control public opinion. He called my company leader.

"Giang Duong is mentally unstable after giving birth. Maybe he won't be able to return to work for a while."

“What she said recently... I hope the company doesn't believe it.”

Not long after. General Manager Ly sent me a WeChat message. Duong Duong, health is the most important. If you have any difficulties, just tell the company. I replied: Thank you, General Director Ly. The day I gave birth by cesarean section, Co Dinh Xuyen held a wedding with my colleague in the same department, To Man. All evidence has now been handed over to the lawyer. If the company needs to investigate, I am ready to cooperate. The other side was silent for ten minutes. Then he texted back: Rest assured and rest assured. I will verify this. The very next day. The whole company was in an uproar. To Man asked for leave. Not healthy. Even Co Dinh Xuyen's company started talking. Because in his application for leave on June 18... The reason he wrote was:

"Leave to take my wife to give birth."

The human resources department called me to verify.

“Hello Ms. Giang, I'm sorry to bother you.”

"On the morning of June 18, Mr. Co Dinh Xuyen asked for leave with the reason that he went to the hospital with his sister to give birth."

“May I ask if this is correct?”

I looked at two copies of my children's birth certificates. Calmly answer:

“He is absent.”

The other end of the line was silent for a few seconds.

“Okay. Thank you.”

After hanging up. Giang Chanh looked at me.

“Did you just say that?”

I smiled.

“The company... understands timekeeping fraud better than we do.”

Giang Chanh immediately gave a thumbs up. On the twelfth day of confinement. Trieu Tu Lan brought two relatives to my mother's house. I'm still in confinement maternal side. Three people stood in front of the door. In his hand he carried two boxes of bird's nest. Just opened my mouth. Trieu Tu Lan cried bitterly.

“Sister-in-law... the children cannot be without a father.”

"I advise Duong Duong not to make a big deal out of it."

"Dinh Xuyen also knows he was wrong."

My mother stood right in front of the door.

“The day your son got married, my daughter was still on the operating table.”

“And yet you still have the face to come here?”

Trieu Tu Lan wiped her tears and said:

"Men... are all confused at times."

“Plus, To Man is also pregnant.”

"If you make a big deal out of it, it will be difficult for everyone to see each other's faces."

My mother was so angry that she was shaking all over.

“I was afraid of losing face…”

“So why don't you turn off all the lights on the day of the wedding?”

Two relatives standing next to him quickly spoke up to advise:

“No matter what, we are all family.”

“The two children are still young…”

I told Giang Chanh to open the door. As soon as he saw me, Trieu Tu Lan immediately showed a forced smile.

"Duong Duong, your face looks better. Let me come in and visit the two grandchildren."

I sit on the sofa. The phone that is silently recording is placed right next to it. I calmly spoke up.

“If there's something wrong, say it directly.”

The smile on her face immediately stiffened. After a few seconds, she spoke up:

"Our family plans to hold a first month party for the two children. After all, giving birth to a pair of dragons and phoenixes is a great joy, we should let relatives come and celebrate."

“The location is still Duyet Lan hotel.”

“It's convenient there.”

Duyet Lan Hotel. That's where... Her son married To Man. I raised my eyes to look at her.

“You guys want to have a month-long party?”
