Zhang Chao said with a cold face, "What nonsense are you talking about? This matter can't be taken seriously. Not to mention that Luo Qiao has only recently been recognized by the Luo Family, even before that, the Luo Family never brought up the matter of a child betrothal again. It must have been a joke. Besides, what era are we in now that we're still holding on to those old customs?"
Zhang Xiao said, "Humph, I'm not talking to you anymore, you're so boring."
By the time Luo Qiao and the others returned to the village, it was already late. They had an early breakfast, and Luo Qiao asked Stone to stay home and do his homework while she took the pastries she made to Doctor Gao's place, since it was just across the bridge.
Doctor Gao happened to be tidying up at the entrance. Luo Qiao approached and said, "Doctor Gao, you're busy, I see."
Doctor Gao stood up and upon seeing Luo Qiao, he smiled and said, "You're back."
