Kapitel 80: Chapter 78 She is His Karma

Ruo Xuan hurriedly ran out of her house, and as she passed by the Zhen Family's place, she suddenly overheard a conversation inside mentioning her family, and couldn't help but stop.

The Zhen Family's house had been washed away by the flood; what wasn't swept away collapsed. Now the family was living in a makeshift straw shed, sheltered from the wind and rain by the remaining two walls.

This was also why old man Zhen was so anxious to go to the town to discuss the marriage arrangement with the butcher Zhao.

They needed silver to build a house.

Butcher Zhao's son had such a terrible reputation that no one dared to give their daughter to him in marriage. He looked down on the ugly ones, but fortunately, Zhen Yi was beautiful. He insisted on having Zhen Yi, and since Zhao was the butcher's only son, whom he doted on tremendously and who he hoped would carry on the family lineage soon, they couldn't have gotten over a hundred taels as a betrothal gift otherwise.
