Chapter 3 — The New Marriage Digs the Truth

"That's not enough. She dared to insult my mother's family right in front of you, and behind her back she would dare to say that the Luc family married a cheap product. Luc Thua Nghien, today you stopped me because you wanted the whole Giang Thanh to know that the Luc family married without saving their face?" He stared at me, after a long while he turned to Butler Ngo. "Open the warehouse." Butler Ngo couldn't believe it: "Master!" Luc Thua Nghien repeated: "Open." The warehouse door is opened. Aunt Tan personally counted the items according to the gift list. When I passed by housekeeper Ngo, she lowered her voice and said: "Young lady, don't be complacent, she won't let you go." I stopped. "Then tell her, don't let the servants rush in first. She doesn't feel sorry, I'm still afraid to get my hands dirty." Butler Ngo's face turned pale. Luc Thua Nghien stood in the rain, for the first time not speaking up to defend others. But I know you're not on my side. He was just afraid that the Luc family would lose face. The day I returned to my mother's house, Luc Thua Nghien arrived exactly two hours late. The relatives standing in front of the Kieu family's door were all waiting. The smile on my aunt's face was almost unbearable. Kieu Yen's cousin looked through the crack in the door three times. My mother sat in the living room, holding a cup of tea with both hands. "Ninh Ninh, let's start the party first." I looked at the time. "Wait another ten minutes." Kieu Yen said sarcastically: "Brother-in-law is really busy, the third day after the wedding, when he gets back to his wife's house, he still forgets. Sis, you don't live very well in the Luc family, do you?" My wife immediately interrupted. "Kieu Yen, what are you talking about? Your sister married into the Luc family, no matter how many people wanted it, she couldn't get it." My mother's hand touched the teacup, the lid made a slight sound. I looked at Kieu Yen. "You care about me like that, how about I go to the door and wait for you? As soon as Luc Thua Nghien arrives, I'll be the first to greet you." Kieu Yen pouted. "I don't dare, what if people think I also want to marry into the Luc family." Outside the door, the sound of a car was heard. Finally, Luc Thua Nghien arrived. When he got off the bus, next to him was Lam Chi. The whole yard immediately fell silent. Lam Chi held a gift box, timidly standing half a step behind Luc Thua Nghien. "Young lady, I heard that today is the day you return to your mother's house, so I specially came to apologize to Uncle Kieu. Last night, if I hadn't been unwell, Mr. Thua Nghien would not have slept late, nor would he be late today." Kieu Yen's eyes lit up. The smile on my aunt's face stiffened. My mother put down her teacup and slowly stood up. Luc Thua Nghien said: "Kieu Ninh, Chi Chi have good intentions." I walked up to Lam Chi. "What identity do you have here?" Lam Chi bit his lip: "I'm just a guest of the Luc family." "The Luc family's guests came to the Kieu family's mother's house party to apologize?" I looked at Luc Thua Nghien. "You brought her here to criticize the Kieu family, haven't they lost enough face?" Luc Thua Nghien frowned. "She has already apologized." I said: "She's not apologizing, but telling everyone that I'm late today because I'm with her." Lam Chi's tears were about to fall again. "I don't have one." My mother spoke up: "Mr. Luc, today is the day my daughter returns to her mother's house. If you look down on the Kieu family, you can't come. Bringing an outsider here, is it bullying the Kieu family, we don't have anyone?" Luc Thua Nghien's face changed slightly. "Auntie, you misunderstood." Kieu Yen suddenly smiled and said: "Mom, brother-in-law also has good intentions. Ms. Lam is so weak, could it be that she was thrown along the road?" I looked at her. "You know how to sympathize, will you invite Ms. Lam to my house for dinner tomorrow?" Kieu Yen immediately closed her mouth. Lam Chi gave the gift box to my mother. "Uncle Kieu, this is the bracelet Thua Nghien personally chose." My mother did not accept it. I reached out to take it, opened it and took a look. Inside is the jade bracelet I personally checked in the warehouse yesterday. It's just that the box has changed to pink, Lam

Just like. I asked Luc Thua Nghien: "Is this your choice?" Lam Chi quickly said: "Mr. Thua Nghien is busy, I will choose for him. Young lady will not mind, right?" I closed the box. "The Luc family's gift to your mother's house was taken by you as a favor. Lam Chi, are you a guest, or are you the housekeeper?" Lam Chi's face turned pale. Luc Thua Nghien said in a deep voice: "Kieu Ninh, don't make a fuss in front of your elders." I gave the gift box to Aunt Tan. "Throw this box away, keep the bracelet. The box that Ms. Lam touched is not worthy of entering the Kieu family's ceremony cabinet." Lam Chi hugged her breasts. "Young lady, why do you have to insult me like that?" I looked at her. "Insulting you? You wore a white dress, followed someone else's husband to the party to the new bride's mother's house, and hugged the gift box saying it was your choice. If it were me, I would have I already found a hole in the ground to hide in.” Among the Kieu family's relatives, someone couldn't help but laugh. Luc Thua Nghien's face darkened to the extreme. "Sorry." I asked: "Who do you want me to apologize to?" "Lam Chi." My mother walked up to me. "Mr. Luc, my daughter is not apologizing for this." Luc Thua Nghien looked at my mother, trying to suppress the anger in her voice. "Auntie, this is between me and Kieu Ninh." My mother said: "I am her mother, if she bears her anger, I have the right to manage it." Lam Chi's tears rolled down.
