Chapter 4
Chapter 4 — When I was born, the day I got divorced, I turned around and married the person who had been waiting for me all my life
In my previous life, it was this river bank that had problems. The crime of embezzlement was blamed on his father, while Tham Nghien Chi stood by and watched, even ordering someone to bring the evidence to Do Sat Vien. Father was half convinced, half doubted, but in the end he nodded: "Okay, tomorrow I will send someone to investigate." After that, I went to the brother's hospital again. At that time, I was drinking wine with a few colleagues in the pavilion. As soon as he saw me walk in, he immediately stood up and quickly called someone to put down all the wine and food.
“A Chieu is here?”
“Quickly come here and sit.”
I raised my hand to stop him:
“I have something to ask you.”
I pursed my lips slightly, then went into the study room with him. Waiting for the door to close, I lowered my voice and said:
“Brother…”
"That Tran Van Cu who just drank with you, you should stop hanging out with him in the future."
Hearing that, the leader frowned.
“Did you find out something?”
"Right now he seems polite, but if you accidentally say something you shouldn't say in the future, he may not help you hide it."
The disaster of the previous life was because the elder brother, after being drunk, let out a few words of complaint against the saint, as a result, Tran Van Cu denounced him to Ngu Su Dai. The elder brother was frightened by my serious tone. He was stunned for a long time before nodding: "I know." I walked out of my brother's yard and raised my head to look at the sky. It's about to get dark, the clouds are pressing down very low, like it's about to rain. Phuc Linh held an umbrella to cover me and asked in a low voice: "Miss, where do we want to go now?"
“Go to General Tran Bac Palace.”
“Ah?” Phuc Linh was startled and surprised, "Right now?"
"Right now."
I'm afraid that if I continue to hesitate any longer, I won't have enough courage to come here. General Tran Bac's palace is located in the east of the citadel, about seven or eight streets away from our residence. By the time the carriage arrived, it was completely dark. The gatekeeper entered the media and soon led us to the main hall. The wife of General Tran Bac Palace, Tieu Tan Thi, is a woman with a straightforward and cheerful personality. As soon as she saw me, she immediately grabbed my hand: "Chieu Ninh is here, why didn't you give someone a warning? Have you had a meal yet?"
"I've already used it, don't worry about it, auntie."
I smiled and replied: "Just now passing by the eastern part of the city, I suddenly thought I hadn't come to visit my aunt for a long time, so I ventured to the door." Lady Tieu smiled and told the maid to bring tea, her eyes roamed around my face: "Today I heard that there was an divorce at the Marquis of Tinh An Palace over there, is it true?" News travels really fast. I nodded: "We broke up." Lady Tieu opened her eyes wide.
“It's good to say goodbye.”
I raised my teacup and took a sip: "Forcibly picked melons are not sweet at all."
“On the contrary, I'm really open-minded.” Mrs. Tieu sighed softly, looking like she wanted to stop talking.
I didn't beat around the bush anymore, put down the tea cup and said directly: "Uncle, I came here today because there is something I want to ask your opinion on."
“What?”
“Tieu Canh Dich, is he married yet?”
Mrs. Tieu almost choked on her tea. She quickly covered her mouth with a towel and coughed a few times, then looked at me with wide eyes: "What did you say?"
“I said, if Tieu Canh I'm not married yet..."
I looked straight into her eyes: "I want to marry him." Lady Tieu was stunned for three full breaths. Then she suddenly stood up, holding my hand tightly with one hand: "Chieu Ninh, you're not joking with your aunt, are you?"
“I'm not joking.”
I seriously replied: "If your aunt feels that a person like you who has been divorced is unlucky, then that's fine." Mrs. Tieu's eyes immediately lit up: "Who said being divorced is unlucky?
"If you're really willing to get married, my stupid brat can even laugh out loud in his dreams! Don't you know that during those three years in Bac Canh, he didn't mention you with his mouth, but in his heart..."
“Mother!”
A voice suddenly rang out from outside the hall. I raised my head and looked up, only to see Tieu Canh Dich striding in. He was wearing a neat and strong mysterious robe, his body was still covered in dust from the windy road, and he hadn't even had time to take off the sword at his waist. After three years of not seeing him, he was much taller than before, his shoulders were also broader, and between his eyebrows there were still a few more cold and sharp points that had been honed in the battlefield. Only this time, her face turned red. He stood at the door, glaring at Mrs. Tieu Tan Thi: "What are you talking about, mother?" But as soon as his eyes glanced at him, his breathing clearly stopped.
