After a while, Xue Yan turned around and said to Jiang Yue.

“Go back to sleep. I’m fine.”

“Okay.”

They both stood up and returned to their rooms.

“Jiang Yue, look at this. It’s lunch I prepared for you. When the time comes, Sifu will heat it up for you and Xue Yan.” Li Hehua put the newly-made food in the bamboo basket, while softly reminding her little girl, who was by her feet.

“I will, thank you.” Jiang Yue said.

“By the way, this small bowl is filled with your favorite ribs. I made them this morning. Don’t forget to ask him to heat them up for you too. You’re still young, so it’s best not to eat cold things. It’s hot now, and it’ll burn you if you eat it now. Anyway, it’ll be fine if it’s not too hot and not too cold.”

“Thank you.” Even though Jiang Yue was very polite, she glanced at Xue Yan after she responded the same thing.

At dinner last night, Xue Yan said that Lin Xicui’s family would come to cancel the engagement today, but he didn’t know if it would be in the morning or afternoon.

However, he didn’t mention that they would be staying at home today. Even if they weren’t at home today and went to town with Sifu to sell rice noodles, it would be fine. The family should be able to handle this.

“Alright, everything’s here. Let’s go, I’ll bring you to the ox cart.” After Li Hehua covered the bamboo basket with a piece of cloth, she carried the basket in one hand and held Jiang Yue’s hand in the other. She was about to leave the courtyard, so she placed the bamboo basket on the ox cart at the entrance of the courtyard.

However, before they left, they heard Xue Sifu’s laughter from outside, “Uncle, aunty, what are you doing here? You must be Xicui!”

She hadn’t married into the family yet, so it wasn’t polite to call her sister-in-law, so Xue Sifu called her Xicui.

Xue Sanfu had never seen Lin Xicui before, so Xue Sifu naturally could not recognize her.

“I guess they came in the morning.” Jiang Yue couldn’t help but glance at Xue Yan.

Xue Yan didn’t expect it to be so early. In his previous life, he was studying in school at this time and was not at home. He only knew that he received the news today, but he didn’t know the specific time of the dissolution of the engagement. Fortunately, they were still here when the news arrived.

When Liu Guixia heard that the Lin family arrived, she quickly came out of the house with a smile and invited them in.

“Yesterday, we were still talking about finding a day to go to your house and set a good date for Xicui and Sanfu. It must be such a coincidence seeing you here.”

“Let’s talk inside,” Lin Xicui’s mother said with a smile.

“Alright, alright. Please, come in.” Liu Guixia quickly let the three of them in and shouted, “Sanfu! Sanfu! Don’t go up the mountain to help with the workshop today, Xicui and her parents are here!”

Xue Sanfu was putting on his straw hat in the central room, preparing to go up the mountain. When he heard this, he put down his straw hat and hung it on the wall.

Just as he strode out, he saw Lin Xicui’s father, Lin Xicui’s mother, and Lin Xicui follow his mother into the courtyard.

He had seen her parents before, but this was the first time he had seen Lin Xicui. He gave her a once over and he didn’t feel much about her.

On the other hand, Jiang Yue glanced at Lin Xicui. Lin Xicui looked rather docile as she followed behind her parents, but her eyes were filled with hostility. She had very ordinary looks and a few freckles on her face. Her skin was quite fair as well.

“Let’s go, we should go and listen in.” Xue Sifu called Jiang Yue and Xue Yan into the central room. He was not in a hurry to go to town now that they were here.

Liu Guixia warmly invited him into the main room to sit down. “Hehua, bring the guests a drink.”
