Zhao Lan grasped Bai Zhis hand. The expression on her face was more serious than ever: Zhier, cant you think about it again? This matter is a lifetime invent, you cant do anything about it even if you regret it.

Bai Zhi smiled: Niang, youre thinking too much, didnt I tell you that this engagement letter is fake? I just need it to fool the Meng Family. We need to do this drama to live a quiet and comfortable life. Why are you taking it seriously?

Zhao Lan shook her head: No, this thing cant be done. Hu Feng is a good boy. If you really like him, I naturally will agree with you, but

Some things shouldnt be said, but she was a mother. Even if she shouldnt, she must say it: But now, he went to the battlefield. We dont know if he can come back. You will be single for a lifetime. I dont want you to grow old alone. Zhier, cant you think about this again? When Hu Feng comes back, as long as he came back, you can get engage with him right away.

This was the difference between the ancient and the modern people.

In modern times, regretting after breaking of engagement was not a common thing. Even divorce became pretty common. But in ancient times, once you break off your engagement, especially if youre a woman, people will look down on you and call you shameless.

Even if it was the man faults, people will say that its because of the womans incompetence. Even if the man was the one who cant keep it, people will criticize the woman and laugh at her.

What an injustice!

Niang, in fact, I am the one who made the engagement letter, you look. She took out the engagement letter from her purse and handed it to Zhao Lan.

Zhao Lan was illiterate, she naturally didnt know what was written in the letter. But when she saw the red stamp, she found it particularly dazzling.

She released a long sigh and returned the letter to Bai Zhi: This child, if thats how it is, then let the heaven decide.

The visitor who came was Wu Mama. Xu Mama was the most trusted person by Xu Furen, so she let her go.

Wu Mamas carriage parked outside Bai Zhis new home. The yards gate was wide open, people where unloading brand new furniture, such as tables, chairs, cabinets, etc. Some people were unloading the furniture, while some were putting them on its proper place.

Wu Mama slowly came out of the carriage but didnt hurry to get down. She just stood there and looked inside. She looked up and down at the new house several times.

This kind of house was quite new. She didnt see anything like this even in the capital.

The next moment, a young boy came out of the house and give directions to the workers. The young boy looked cute but thin.

Who are you looking for? The young boy walked closer towards the carriage and approached Wu Mama, then asked.

Wu Mama stepped on the footstool and looked at the young boy from head to toe: Are you from this family?

Zhou Xiaofeng nodded his head: Yes, I am from this family, who are you looking for? Zhou Xiaofeng slightly frowned. Seeing the old ladys face doesnt look so good, he wondered if she came to look for trouble.

Wu Mama replied: I am looking for Bai Zhi, is she here?

Zhou Xiaofeng turned his head and looked at Bai Zhi, who was in the yard, but he didnt answer the question: Why are you looking for her? Can you tell me?

Wu Mama shook her head: I cant tell you, are you her brother? Then she added to say with a smile that doesnt look like a smile: Rest assured, I wont embarrass your sister. Ill just say a few words.
