"Mom, who says girls have to get married?" Xu Nianhua pouted. She'd seen so many women lose their confidence after marrying, slowly worn down by life, living miserably.
She didn't want to get married. Just like in her previous life, she wanted to live on her own, and, when she's able, help people in need, earn more money, let her parents live in a big house, and have the happiest life out of anyone.
Ji Ying smiled and said nothing. The girl just hadn't met someone she liked yet—if she did, she wouldn't be saying this.

Dawn broke, and Dazhu Village became lively again.
Yao Feng and Cai Gen, after returning home late, of course got questioned by their elders about what happened.
You don't know until you ask—once they did, it was a real shock.
When Cai Gen's mom and Yao Feng's mom learned the truth, they couldn't believe it. They'd heard the rumors these days, and thought Ji Ying's family was struggling, so marrying the brick factory boss's son would be a pretty good match.
