~Thế thì gai để làm gì mới được chứ?
~ So what is the point of the thorns? ( 대체 뭐 하러 가시가 있는거지?)
"mới được" is just a way to emphasise. The one who says this sentence really has no idea why there must be thorns

It appears you are learning the northern dialect. People from the North of Vietnam can be quite creative and tend to exaggerate their expressions. I suggest that you learn the meaning of the whole sentence. I bet you that you can't find another person who uses #2 and #3 exactly how you write it.
"bận mù lên" literally means the person is so busy that it blinds him.
In English, there is the expression "knots in the stomach." "thắt ruột" means knots in the intestine.
