Chapter 1
Chapter 1 — To Nhuoc
Verdict: When my sister was found, she got married and gave birth to a child. But her husband is a person with a disabled leg and has difficulty walking. Big brother criticized him for not being worthy of his sister's status, so he forced the two to separate. My sister couldn't bear to leave her son, so her big brother forced me to marry her to the Tieu family, connecting the red line and taking over for her. "If it weren't for you that day, Nguyet Thuc wouldn't have been taken away by human traffickers. If you still have a little conscience in your heart, you should make it up to your sister." After marrying into the Tieu family, I conscientiously fulfilled my duties as a wife, wholeheartedly taking care of the family. The husband's stepson resented me for usurping his biological mother's position and was mischievous and caused trouble every day. As for my husband, he hated my big brother for forcing my sister to break up with him, so he took out all his resentment on him, treating me coldly like ice. After day after day of treating the child well, we gradually receive a little acceptance from the child. Three years later, the palace issued an order to find someone. Only then did I learn that my husband was actually a wandering prince. Because she missed her child, she became sick and often came to the Tieu family to visit. Many times I saw the three of them sitting at the same table, holding hands and walking in the garden, warm and harmonious like a real family. As long as I accidentally express a little dissatisfaction, Tieu Can Nien will immediately scold me for being narrow-minded and deliberately separating Lien Sinh's mother and child from reuniting. Open your eyes again. I have returned to the day when my eldest brother forced me to marry the Tieu family as his successor. I shook my head and refused. "Before my mother passed away, she had chosen a marriage for me. Big brother... has he forgotten?"... Big brother frowned and said in a deep voice: "It's true that before she passed away, mother had engaged me. But Lau Quan Yem went to the frontier many years ago to join the army. Now he's the only one left in the Lau family, so who knows how he will live." "I've also mentioned it since. For a long time, if he's still alive, why haven't I seen him come to marry me?" "A Nhuoc, Tieu Can Nien has a bad leg, but his family is prosperous. I can't bear to leave Lien Sinh. If you marry there, they will naturally treat you kindly." I lowered my eyes and tried to suppress the bitterness in my heart. "Big brother, it won't be long before Lau Quan Viem comes to the door to propose What?" The older sister gently pulled the big brother's sleeve and said in a low voice: "Big brother, if that's the case... then stop it." "Husband... although his legs are inconvenient, he doesn't treat me too bad." Big brother smiled coldly. "Nguyet Thuc, if he truly treats you well, why do you dress so poorly?" "You are the second young lady of the Minister's Palace, how can you marry a crippled businessman?" "The name is Tieu Can." At that time, what else was worth mentioning besides that face?" After a while, the big brother's voice softened a bit and then lowered again. "If you've broken up, don't think about him anymore." Having finished speaking, he turned to look at me. "A Nhuoc, that year, Nguyet Thuc was taken away by human traffickers because he was protecting you. The only thing you're not at ease about now is that Lien Sinh doesn't have a mother to take care of you." "You married there, and you don't have to worry about food and clothes for the rest of your life. Isn't it bad to have to bear the pain of giving birth? "I felt the bitterness rising in my heart. "What about Lau Jun Yan? The Lau family has been kind to us, has the eldest brother forgotten?" The elder brother was silent for a long time, then finally gave in. "Then wait another two months." "If he still hasn't returned, you must marry the Tieu family." After saying that, he opened the curtain and walked out. My sister looked at me, wanted to say something, then stopped. After a long time, he spoke softly: "Ah Nhuoc, if you really don't want to... I'll go tell big brother..." It's useless. I understand too well. Big brother is always merciful to his sister. He remembers that he was arrested when he was little
kidnapped, wandered in many places, and was finally sold into the Tieu family as a farmer, suffering all sorts of hardships. That year, on Lunar New Year, my sister took me out to look at the lights. Amidst the crowded sea of people, the traffickers had their eyes on the two sisters. The one who should have been taken away was me. It was my sister who bit the human trafficker's wrist, creating an opportunity for me to escape. I panicked and ran to call someone. But when I brought the adults back, the sister had disappeared. Since then, my father and mother both blamed me. Big brother also resents me. The day my mother passed away, my eyes still couldn't close. She kept calling her sister's name. Keep repeating over and over whether you can meet her again or not. I held her hand, tears falling down my wrist. But in the end... She still couldn't wait for her sister to return. … My sister sat next to me, gently advising: "A Nhuoc, Can Nien is actually a very good person, it's just that her legs are not convenient. Lien Sinh is also obedient and understanding. If you marry there, they will definitely treat you very well." I looked at her. No matter what, I couldn't overcome the barrier in my heart, so in the end I still spoke up. "Sister, I don't want to." "I already have an engagement." "When you saved me in the past, I will always remember and be grateful for the rest of my life." "I can use it a thousand times, ten thousand times to repay you for other things." "But sister..." I cut my lower lip, word by word, clearly: "I can't. I will spend my whole life to compensate." My sister's eyes were red, tears rolling down her cheeks. She quickly turned away. "It's me who thought wrong... it's me who thought wrong..." But in my past life... How do I know Lau Jun Yan is still alive. Big brother said he died. I immediately believed. On the day she married into the Tieu family, when the red veil was lifted, Tieu Can Nien sat on the edge of the bed. He has an extremely handsome face. It's just a pity... His attitude is as cold as ice. Every day we fulfill our duties as wives. Morning and evening, pray for peace, wash, and clean. There is nothing we dare neglect. But... Lien Sinh hates me. The four-year-old child looked at me with eyes like he was looking at an archenemy. It put poison in my teacup, causing me to lose face in the middle of the banquet.
