Chapter 4: Breaking Off the Engagement with Wang Yu

Ye Chuhe said this and kicked Liu Zhaodi hard before angrily opening the door of the main hall.

The villagers outside all stared at the main hall with wide eyes, wanting to see if Liu Zhaodi had been stripped naked.

Liu Zhaodi was now lying on the ground, glaring at Ye Chuhe’s back with hatred.

It was all because of the Yun family! Otherwise, why would she be so humiliated today?

A woman’s reputation was the most important thing, and now she was a grown girl, almost exposed to the whole village.

How could she live if she lost her reputation?

She would be drowned in spit!

Ye Chuhe clearly wanted to kill her.

Sun Xiang saw the people in the courtyard all looking at her main hall, so she quickly got up and closed the door.

She said to Liu Zhaodi inside, “Zhaodi, are you okay? Quickly put on your clothes.”

Liu Zhaodi heard her mother’s words and quickly put on her outer garment and tidied herself up before opening the door of the main hall and limping out.

The old lady Yun thought that she had gotten the one tael of silver, her precious baby had woken up, and the bracelet had been found.

Everything was fine, so she turned around and left.

When she got back, the whole Yun family learned that Yun Nian’an had regained consciousness.

The family surrounded Yun Nian’an, asking her questions one after another.

The old lady Yun excitedly grabbed Yun Nian’an and wouldn’t let go, “My precious baby, how did you wake up? Do you recognize all of us?”

Yun Nian’an heard the old lady Yun’s words and nodded, “Grandma, I’ve been in a daze all these years.

I wasn’t really stupid, I lost my soul, and it went with the old immortal to learn some skills.”

The old lady Yun heard this and her eyes widened, “What? You went with the old immortal to learn skills?”

Yun Nian’an nodded. Yun Nian’an thought clearly, she would definitely make this family rich in the future.

After all, the family was still eating gruel and rice, and they might even have to flee famine in the future.

She couldn’t be the only one eating, while everyone else watched.

Besides, since she was the original body, everyone in the family was especially kind to her, and they all treated her like a precious treasure.

Even though she had been silly and stupid for so many years, she had never been rejected.

The old lady Yun slapped her thigh, “Oh, oh, oh, I knew my precious baby would wake up one day.

Look, my precious baby has been learning skills from the old immortal.”

The old man Yun also nodded from the side, “My dear, what skills did you learn from the immortal?”

The old lady Yun heard the old man Yun’s words and slapped him on the back.

“You old fool, our precious baby learned skills from the immortal, how could you, a mere mortal, ask such a question?

These are secrets! Hurry up and kill a chicken, we have to celebrate properly today.”

The old lady Yun didn’t think that her precious baby had actually learned skills from the immortal, maybe she had been silly and stupid for so many years, and now the little girl had regained consciousness.

Yun Nian’an saw the old lady smiling so hard that her mouth was almost reaching her ears.

The Yun family was filled with joy, but the Liu family was different.

Liu Xiahe sat on a stool in the main hall and looked at Liu Cuifang, “Mother, don’t try to persuade me anymore, we have to split the family today.”

Liu Cuifang looked at her second son and frowned, thinking that her second son was becoming increasingly difficult to control.

Liu Cuifang looked at her eldest son, “Dahe, what do you say? Your brother wants to split the family!

Our village has a custom, we don’t split the family while our parents are alive, and your mother is still alive, but your brother wants to split the family, you, as the older brother, have to control him.”

Liu Dahe heard his mother’s words and just shook his head without saying anything.

After a long time, he said, “I’ll listen to you, mother.”

Liu Cuifang saw Liu Dahe’s expression and slapped the table, “You useless thing, you always listen to your mother! Why don’t you have any opinions of your own?”

Liu Zhaodi was about to speak, but Sun Xiang immediately covered her mouth and took her out of the main hall.

Liu Zhaodi looked at Sun Xiang, “Mother, why didn’t you let me speak?”

Sun Xiang saw Liu Zhaodi’s expression and said, “If you speak now, your grandmother will scold you. Think about how big a mistake you made today! Quickly go back to your room and hide.

Don’t go near your grandmother for the next few days, I guess she’ll scold the second family and then she’ll scold you.”

Liu Zhaodi shuddered when she heard her mother’s words, it was an instinctive fear of Liu Cuifang.

Main Hall

Li Yun looked at Liu Cuifang at this time, “Mother, no matter what, my two sons are your grandsons.

If you weren’t so partial, so partial that there’s no end to it.

We wouldn’t have to split the family, wouldn’t you say?

If we don’t split the family now, the two brothers will become enemies in the future.”

Liu Cuifang heard Li Yun’s words and finally sighed, “Fine, fine, if you want to split the family, then split it.

There’s no money left in the house, there’s only one tael of silver left, take it and split it between the two of you.

There’s only one house, we’ll build a wall in the middle and that’s the split.”

Liu Xiahe heard his mother agree and nodded.

Li Yun disagreed, “Mother, did you hear what the village head said?

The eldest son’s daughter made a mistake, we can’t cover for her.”

Liu Cuifang rolled her eyes at Li Yun, “I know! You’ll get what’s yours.”

Li Yun happily nodded, “Mother, I knew you were the fairest.

Don’t worry, even if we split the family, my family will take care of you just like the eldest son’s family.”

Liu Cuifang snorted, “Of course, your father is gone! If you don’t take care of me, will this old woman have to go out and beg for food?”

Liu Dahe heard his mother’s words and quickly shook his head, “Mother, don’t worry, even if the second brother doesn’t take care of you, I will.”

Liu Xiahe heard his older brother’s words and rolled his eyes at him.

Over here, the old lady Yun urged Yun Nian’an back to her room.

“My precious baby, you just woke up, your body is still weak, quickly go back to bed and lie down.

Your mother will cook a chicken later, and your father will bring it to you in your room.”

Yun Nian’an heard the old lady’s words and nodded, “Grandma, I have something to tell you.”

The old lady Yun heard this and nodded, “What is it? Tell me.”

Yun Nian’an thought for a moment and organized her words, “I want to break off the engagement with the Wang family.”

The old lady Yun heard this and her eyes widened, “You want to break off the engagement with the Wang family? Didn’t you used to love chasing after the Wang family boy?”

Yun Nian’an heard her grandmother’s words and shook her head, “I was stupid before, I didn’t understand.

Wang Yu always tricked me out of things, and then he gave them all to Liu Zhaodi to eat. They’ve been holding hands and kissing in private.”

The old lady Yun heard this and her eyes widened, “What? What did you say? Liu Zhaodi is only thirteen or fourteen years old.

Wang Yu is probably only fifteen. Although grandma always disliked the Wang family boy for being five years older than you.

But this was arranged by your great-grandfather, I never thought he would dare to treat you like this.”
