“Let’s not talk about these annoying things. There are a lot of bad men in this world. My junior sister was just unlucky to meet one!” Shu Ruyue said.

“That’s not true. Your junior sister didn’t expect it either! Even your martial uncle didn’t expect it! Speaking of which, getting engaged before birth is the most irresponsible thing to do! Who knows what this child will become like when he grows up?!” Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but complain.

Shu Ruyue thought of something and nodded in agreement.

“Yes, yes, yes. Xiaoran, you’re right. I know two people who got engaged before they were born. In the end, after the two of them grew up and the woman married over, she found out that this man, who had been her fiance since she was young, engaged in prostitution and gambling. She wanted to get a divorce, but the man’s family wouldn’t agree at all. They even sent people to guard the woman all day long and didn’t even let her contact her family.”

“What a miserable life! She barely has enough to eat and gets beaten up all day long. There are also endless chores to do. When her family came to see the woman, there were also people following her and threatening her not to spout nonsense. They said that once she spouted nonsense, they would kill her parents with a knife. Later on, this woman’s biological brother realized that something was wrong with his sister. On the surface, he pretended to leave, but he secretly sneaked back and observed them.”

“That woman’s brother was smart and immediately saw the problem. Seeing that his sister was suffering, he suppressed his anger and quietly retreated. Then, he went to look for the young master of the governor’s family, who he was usually close to, and asked someone to help him. Then, he found some excuses to send the man’s family away before breaking into the house and saving his sister!”

At this point, Shu Ruyue was also furious.

“After that woman returned, she even asked me to treat her! After all, the medicine my family made was the most effective for this woman’s injuries. Because the other party was a woman, she asked me to treat her wound. The woman’s body was bruised and many parts were rotten. Anyway, there wasn’t a single piece of intact part on her body!”

“So, before we women get married, we have to keep our eyes wide open. Not only do we have to see how a man’s character is, but we also have to see how the other party’s family is like! If we’re careless, we’ll be doomed!” Li Xiaoran said.

Ruan Weiwei, who was looking at the bustling streets outside, was attracted by the conversation inside.

At this moment, she looked at Li Xiaoran.

“Sister Xiaoran, infant betrothal isn’t good?”

When Li Xiaoran heard Ruan Weiwei’s words, she suddenly realized something.

“Weiwei, why are you asking this? Could it be that you have an infant betrothal?”

Ruan Weiwei looked at Li Xiaoran and nodded after a moment of hesitation.

“I have an infant betrothal. My mother told me that I was born with an infant betrothal!”

After Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue exchanged looks, they suppressed their surprise. Then, they looked at Ruan Weiwei.

“Then do you remember who your infant betrothal fiance was?” Li Xiaoran asked.

Ruan Weiwei nodded and said, “I know. My mother said that I’m going to marry Brother Youting in the future. Brother Youting is the son of the Third Prince. My mother said that as long as I marry him, I’ll be able to live a good life. My father will also treat us well and bring us over to live!”

As soon as she said this, Li Xiaoran’s expression chanzed and she looked at Zi

Zheng.

Zi Zheng understood and nodded, indicating that he would immediately get someone to investigate.

On the other side, Li Xiaoran gestured for Ruan Weiwei to come over and sit down to talk.

After placing a snack in Ruan Weiwei’s hand, Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and asked gently, “What about you? Do you like Brother Youting?” After Ruan Weiwei took a bite of pastry, she shook her head.

“Sister Xiaoran, I’ve only seen Brother Youting once, but I can tell that he doesn’t like me!”

Children were very sensitive to other people’s emotions. For Weiwei to say that, she must have sensed the other party’s disgust when the two children interacted.

“Then do you want to cancel this marriage?” Li Xiaoran asked again. Ruan Weiwei hesitated for a moment before asking carefully, “Will my mother and I have a bad life in the future after the engagement is broken off?”

Li Xiaoran froze. Then, she deliberated for a moment and said, “If you want your mother to live a good life, you have to rely on yourself. If you’re capable and can earn money to support yourself and your mother, you naturally won’t have to rely on others. At that time, if you don’t want to marry anyone, you don’t have to!”

When she heard Li Xiaoran’s words, Ruan Weiwei’s eyes flashed with eagerness.

“Sister Xiaoran, what should I do to earn money to support my mother and

“Become literate and learn more skills! It depends on what you’re good at or what you like to learn!” At this point, Li Xiaoran reached out and touched her head. ‘Weiwei, don’t be anxious. Think about it carefully! As long as you make up your mind, I will help you!”

Shu Ruyue already understood many things, so she stood up to say, “Yes, I will help you too! I will teach you some self-defense skills. In the future, you can protect yourself and your mother. Then, you can learn some money-making skills from Sister Xiaoran. That way, you won’t have to be afraid!” When Ruan Weiwei heard this, she heaved a sigh of relief and smiled.

“Thank you, Sister Xiaoran. Thank you, Sister Ruyue. I want to rely on myself to protect my mother and myself. I can read. I don’t know any money-making skills, but what I want to learn the most now is martial arts. I wonder if my mother is safe and sound!”

At this point, the eagerness in the little girl’s eyes dissipated bit by bit, and was replaced by worry.

When Li Xiaoran saw this and sensed the worry in the little girl’s heart, she suddenly had an idea.

“Ruyue, accompany me from the east gate of the capital. Perhaps if we let Weiwei take a carriage again, we can find where she lives with her mother!”

Shu Ruyue naturally had to accompany Li Xiaoran to the end.

Hence, the group left.

After packing up the food, the group got into the carriage and headed towards the east gate of the capital.

After arriving at the east gate, Li Xiaoran let Ruan Weiwei sense the speed of the carriage and let her recall how fast the carriage was on the day they entered the capital.

After confirming the speed of the carriage, the group moved according to Weiwei’s reaction and feelings.

Perhaps the heavens were helping the mother and daughter, but after Ruan Weiwei sat in the carriage, she could accurately sense the location every time and tell them to turn left and right in time.

Finally, the carriage stopped outside a quiet house..
