"Uncle Zhang, please get up. If you keep kneeling, I won't dare to agree." Bai Ruozhu said as she helped him up to his feet again. Only then did Zhang Liliang finally stand up.
"Please do not hesitate to order me around from now on," Zhang Liliang politely remarked.
Yet, Bai Ruozhu's face fell. She sighed heavily and said, "Our families have always been close, like relatives. I still remember how, during the busy farming season, you and my aunt dropped everything to help out. Even little Rongrong helps out with chores. If now you wish to revert to formality and distance yourself from us, wouldn't it damage the bond between our families?"
