Chapter 284: On the Eve of Marriage

284

Most people in Houling Village felt that it was a waste of silver since Fu Family's house was only a few steps away from the village chief's. Nevertheless, all the young girls and young wives in the village felt envious, jealous, and resentful towards Xiao Ruo.

They envied the grandeur of Xiao Ruo's wedding, and were even more envious that, without support from her own family, the Fu Family still treated her with such wholehearted kindness.

The day before the wedding, Xiao Ruo and Qin Anshun were taken in by the village chief's family, who also forbade Xiao Ruo from seeing Fu Hanwen, citing tradition. So, when Fu Hanwen came to find Xiao Ruo at the village chief's house that evening, the village chief's wife sternly sent him away.

"Thump, thump, thump!" Just as Xiao Ruo, chased back to her room by the village chief's wife, had lain down, she heard a knock on the window and immediately jumped up.
