Chapter 6 — The Fish Was Dumped Into The Trash, The Marriage Also Ended

He doesn't understand. At this time, the mother-in-law came out of the room. In her hand she held an old wooden box.

“Nam Chi, look what I can find for you.”

That's the jewelry box my mother left behind. Yesterday I lost a pearl necklace. Today there was another gold bracelet missing inside. Mother-in-law brought the box.

"We're all one family, stop calculating."

"Tomorrow, when you go try the food at Xuan Hoa Lau, dress nicer."

“If that company pays a high salary, then quit working at the training center, and later focus on helping Minh Xuyen receive guests.”

I opened the box.

“Where is the bracelet?”

The mother-in-law's eyes immediately avoided.

“Which round?”

“My mother's dragon and phoenix necklace.”

Luc Giai Giai poked his head out from the room.

“Sister-in-law, don't slander others.”

I looked at my mother-in-law.

“I'll give you ten minutes.”

“Bring it here.”

The mother-in-law immediately pretended to feel sorry for herself.

“Are you interrogating a criminal?”

“If I'm this old, would I still steal things from my children?”

Right at that moment. The doorbell rang. Luc Minh Xuyen angrily went to open the door. Outside are two policemen.

“Who is Hua Nam Chi?”

I raised my hand.

“I'm the one reporting the crime.”

"A gold bracelet was lost in the house. I have a receipt to prove the value of the property."

The mother-in-law's legs were soft. She had to hold on to the shoe cabinet to steady herself. Luc Giai Giai's face turned pale. The gold bracelet was found in Luc Giai Giai's cosmetic bag. She cried and explained that she only took it out to try on and then forgot to put it back. When the police asked why he brought it into a private room. She couldn't answer at all. My mother-in-law turned to scream at me:

“Do you have to send your sister to jail to be satisfied?”

I calmly replied:

“She's not my sister.”

After sending the police away, Luc Minh Xuyen slammed the door. His face darkened.

“Hua Nam Chi.”

“Tomorrow Giai Giai still has to meet the Trieu family.”

“If you report to the police today, do you want to ruin his life?”

I looked at him.

“When he stole things, did he think about his whole life?”

“It's something in the house!”

I hugged the jewelry box tightly to my heart.

“My mother's relics are not from the Luc family.”

Luc Giai Giai cried so much that she couldn't breathe.

“Brother, I don't want to live anymore.”

“Trieu Minh will definitely not need you anymore.”

"My sister-in-law just doesn't want me to live a good life because she's jealous."

Her mother-in-law hugged her and started crying too.

“My poor daughter.”

“Why do I have to meet such a cruel sister-in-law?”

Luc Minh Xuyen step by step walked towards me. His eyes were cold and scary. I looked at him.

“Sorry who?”

"Sorry Giai Giai, sorry mom. Tonight's story ends here. Tomorrow, follow me to see the Trieu family, then go to Xuan Hoa Lau."

“What if I don't agree?”

Luc Minh Xuyen took out a bank card from his pocket.

“You've wanted this card for a long time, right?”

“Your reward is all in here.”

“You cancel the listing of the house, withdraw the lawyer's letter, I will give it to you.”

I received the card. Mother-in-law immediately scolded:

"Minh Xuyen! Why did you give it to him?"

I opened my phone and tried to look up my balance. The password is Luc Giai Giai's birthday. The balance appeared: 236 yuan and 7 dimes. I showed him the screen.

“This is your reward?”

Luc Minh Xuyen's face immediately stiffened. Luc Giai Giai's crying also stopped. I opened the delivery history pandemic. The most recent transfer was 58,000 yuan. Recipient: Trieu Minh. Note: Engagement party deposit. I turned the screen towards Luc Giai Giai.

“Using your brother's money for the engagement.”

“Using my car to save face again.”

“Does Trieu Minh know about that?”

Luc Giai Giai rushed forward to steal the phone. I took a step back. Luc Minh Xuyen reached out to stop her. Luc Giai Giai shouted:

“You dare to yell at me?”

“Because of her, you yelled at me?”

Mother-in-law pointed straight at me.

“It was all your instigation!”

“If it weren't for you, our house would still be at peace!”

I placed the bank card on the tea table.

“If it weren't for me, you wouldn't even be able to live in this house.”

That sentence seemed to stab Luc Minh Xuyen's self-esteem straight. He tried to suppress his anger.

“Hua Nam Chi.”

“Don't forget, after your parents died, I was the one who married you.”

“When no one else needed me, it was you who gave me a home.”

I looked at him for a long time.

“So from beginning to end, you always thought that I should be grateful to you.”

“Shouldn't it be?”

“Luc Minh Xuyen.”

“The money my parents left behind is enough for me to live very well on my own.”

“It's the Luc family that has relied on my money for the past five years.”

He couldn't say anything more. I walked towards the door.

“Tomorrow, ten o'clock.”

“Department of Civil Affairs.”

Behind him, Luc Minh Xuyen said coldly:

“If you walk out this door, don't come back.”

I pulled the door open.

“I came back to get my house back.”

In front of the gate of the Civil Affairs Department. Luc Minh Xuyen arrived twenty minutes late. He was wearing the most expensive suit, looking like he was about to sign a business contract.
