After finishing speaking, he handed the engagement letter to Aunt Wang and said, "See if there is anything wrong. Since the Chen family asked you to cancel the engagement, they must have given you their engagement letter. Since they want to cancel the engagement, then
Just tear up the engagement letter in front of everyone, and the marriage will be over."
"Oh, how can I read?" Aunt Wang smiled, "It's just that this engagement letter was written by Brother Dongming. You must be right if you think it is right. You should also take a look at this one from the Chen family.
recognize."
He Chunmei held her family's share and didn't know what to do. She couldn't read either.
"Mom, bring it to me and see." Lu Ziyuan took the engagement letter from He Chunmei's hand.
For a time traveler, it is not difficult to know some basic characters as long as it is not oracle bone inscriptions. However, Lu Ziyuan is still super lucky. The characters of this era are exactly the same as the simplified characters of the 21st century. This is really good news.
However, even if it is simplified Chinese, not many people in this backward era can recognize it, let alone peasant women. Aunt Wang was slightly surprised when Lu Ziyuan said she wanted to read it, "Oh, Sister Wan, can you read?"
"I know a little bit. When I was a kid, I watched my dad write and learned some from him." Lu Ziyuan made up a sentence casually, then lowered her head to read the engagement letter, glanced at it, nodded and handed it to Aunt Wang.
He Chunmei didn't have any doubts. Lu Ziwan was the couple's first child. Not to mention how much Lu Dongming loved her, he had taken her with him since she was a child. It was not surprising that he would teach her how to read. It was just that Lu Dongming had mentioned Ziwan before.
Not interested in literacy, she thought Lu Ziyuan was still illiterate.
"That's good. Come on, take a look at the one the Chen family gave me and make sure it's true. If so, I'll tear up the two copies together." Aunt Wang quickly gave the portion in her hand to Lu Ziwan while grinning.
He said with a smile, "I think Sister Wan is different. She is actually literate. Whoever marries Zi Wan in the future will be truly blessed for several lifetimes."
"Aunt Wang is so flattering. I only know a few things, but I don't know them all." Lu Ziyuan humbly said, "Aunt Wang, this engagement letter is correct, so just tear it up."
Lu Ziwan admitted that she was a little anxious. Only when the engagement letter was torn up could the engagement be considered truly broken off.
"Hey!" Aunt Wang smiled from ear to ear, and quickly tore the two pieces of paper into pieces, thinking happily that she could go to Chen's house to collect the money later.
"I just know a few words. What's so great about it? Is it possible that I can read and treat people like her father?" Chen Guihua curled her lips in disdain, but she was happy when she saw the engagement letter torn up.
She was even more embarrassed than Aunt Wang, "A woman, even if she is literate, is not married in the end, and if she is literate, she cannot make a living, so she will not be able to achieve much."
"Let me tell you, even if the Lu family Ziyuan really learns some medical treatment methods from her father, she won't treat your family members. If you are a white-eyed wolf, the treatment will be in vain." Some villagers teased.
"It's just that Brother Dongming gave you and your family free medical treatment. I didn't expect how long this man has been gone and you're still helping outsiders to make up some vicious words about your uncle."
Chen Guihua was so angry that everyone in the group put her hands on her hips, "My man is my brother-in-law or his eldest brother. If he helps his family members with their medical treatment and collects money, then he is not a member of his family. If he accepts it, he is afraid that his parents will blame him and he will feel uneasy!"
Lu Ziyuan couldn't help but roll her eyes. Some people's faces are so shameless that even a cannon can't penetrate them. "It's a miracle that the third aunt now knows that she is one of her own."
