Just as Yao Fang was feeling uneasy, someone knocked rhythmically on the tightly shut door.
"Knock, knock, knock!" There were three rhythmic hits.
This was the signal between Yao Fang and Yang Jiashan.
Yang Jiashan was the man that Yao Fang wanted to elope with. They grew up together and were childhood sweethearts. Before Yao Fang got married, she gave her virginity to Yang Jiashan. Unfortunately, Yang Jiashan's parents didn't like Yao Fang.
They despised Yao Fang's family for being too poor and couldn't afford dowry. They forced their son to marry someone who was more well-off. Yao Fang ended up marrying to Trinity Village in despair. Unfortunately, her life was not good. Her husband died after less than two years, leaving her with the title of a widow. She couldn't even go back to her parents. Once she went back, she would be chased out in disgust.
