The house by the river

#### 1. New Beginnings

Thu Ha is a young woman who has just experienced a broken marriage. She decided to leave the city, which was full of sad memories, to go back to her hometown to live with her grandmother in a small village called Hien Luong. My grandmother's house is located by the river, separate and quiet. Ha hopes that this place will help her find peace and rebuild her life.

When she arrived at the village, Ha realized that life here was simple but full of vitality. The villagers are friendly, the green rice fields stretch out, and the river meanders gently. Ha's grandmother, Ms. Tam, is a gentle woman, always smiling and giving unconditional love to her granddaughter. She always taught Ha the importance of patience and optimism in life.

#### 2. Reconnecting with Nature

One day, Ha decided to take a walk along the riverbank to feel the life here. She sat under an ancient tree, watched the river flow, and began to feel her heart lighter. Every morning, she wakes up early, takes care of the vegetable garden with her grandmother, and cooks with fresh ingredients from the garden. This simple but full and peaceful life helps Ha gradually find the joy of life.

Ha also began to get to know the kind neighbors. Uncle Tu, who specializes in net fishing, often brings her fresh fish. Ms. Lan, the owner of the grocery store, always gives Ha useful advice on how to live in the countryside. Gradually, Ha felt part of this community.

#### 3. Discover new talent

During a house cleaning, Ha found an old guitar from her grandfather. Ms. Tam recounted that Ha's grandfather used to be a talented musician, and this piano was his commemorative gift. Ha began to learn to play the piano through online lessons and gradually found a new passion. She spends a lot of time every day practicing, and the sound of her piano begins to spread throughout the village.

One day, Ha decided to hold a small concert at her home. People in the village came in large numbers, they brought delicious food and enjoyed music together. The sound of Ha's piano not only captivates people's hearts but also creates a warm atmosphere and brings people together. The concert was a great success, and since then, Ha has become "the artist of Hien Luong village".

#### 4. Friendship and love

Through concerts and daily activities, Ha befriended Nam, a young man who works as a carpenter. Nam has bright eyes and a warm smile, always helping Ha in heavy work. The two quickly became close, shared many stories with each other and gradually developed a relationship.

Nam not only helps Ha in her daily life but also teaches her many things about life in the countryside. He took Ha on a tour of beautiful places in the village, introduced her to new friends and worked with her on small projects such as planting trees or repairing houses. The love between them grew day by day, and Ha felt lucky to have Nam by her side.

#### 5. Challenge and Grow

One day, Ha received news that her mother was seriously ill. Ha's mother lives in the city and needs special care. Ha decided to return to the city to take care of her mother, even though her heart was full of worries. She knew that life in the city would be very different and challenging, but she also understood that this was her responsibility.

Nam supports Ha's decision and promises to always be with her, even though the distance is far away. Ha said goodbye to her grandmother, friends and loved ones in Sen village, and set off to return to the city. Life in the city is not easy, but Ha has grown and become stronger thanks to her experiences in the countryside. She takes care of her mother, and at the same time does not forget to spend time on her passion for music.

#### 6. Endings and New Beginnings

After a while, Ha's mother's health gradually stabilized. Ha decided to stay in the city and start over. She found a new job, continued to pursue her passion for music and often visited her grandmother and Nam. Every time she returns, she brings joy and happiness, sharing it with everyone.

Ha and Nam decided to hold a simple wedding in Hien Luong village, where they found love and meaning in life. The wedding took place in a warm atmosphere, on the riverbank where they used to sit and talk and give each other words of love. Ha's life is now full of joy and hope, she understands that no matter how many challenges she goes through, she always has her family and loved ones by her side.

The house on the riverbank is not only a shelter but also a place where Ha finds herself again. Ha's life story is a testament to her strength and perseverance, showing that no matter how difficult life is, as long as we know how to find joy and hope, we will overcome it all.
