Xiaoxiao was also full of surprise; wasn’t this the girl she t on the road? How could she be here? Could it be?
"Ah, isn’t this the old girl from the An Family?"
"Yes, isn’t this An’an?"
"An’an, weren’t you supposed to get married today? Why are you back?"
"You didn’t elope back, did you?"
"You sure have so nerve, don’t you?"
"..."
"..."
The whole village knew about the An Family’s old girl being forced to marry a fool. The whole village felt sorry for the little girl but had no choice; after all, they owed Silver.
At this mont, soone shouted towards the yard.
"Old An, your old girl is back."
The people inside the house heard the shout and, full of amazent, didn’t care about anything else and ran out.
Outside the main door, they saw that figure in red.
No doubt, it was their An’an who had returned.
"An’an." An’an’s mother called out her daughter’s na in excitent.
Upon hearing the voice, An’an turned around suddenly and saw her parents, along with her elder brother and sister-in-law.
Tears welled up in her eyes again as she ran over to tightly hug her mother, crying, "Mother, An’an is back."
An’an’s mother, not good with words, just held her daughter and continued crying without saying a word.
The An Family mbers beside them watched the mother and daughter crying and wiped their eyes, feeling deeply saddened.
After a mont, Old An finally spoke, "An’an, how did you co back? Would that family let you return?"
He was happy his daughter ca back, but sothing must be up; that family wouldn’t let his daughter go easily. If it were possible, they wouldn’t have taken her to pay off the debt in the first place.
An’an released from her mother’s embrace and spoke, "Father, let’s talk inside."
"Yes, let’s talk inside, talk inside." Such matters shouldn’t let outsiders know.
An’an’s parents hugged her, intending to walk into the yard.
Here, An Quan shouted towards the group at the entrance, "Everyone, scatter. Our An Family has nothing for you to watch. Scatter, scatter."
The An Family had been watched by villagers recently due to certain matters, and they were really fed up.
Yet the villagers were still reluctant, eager to understand what had happened to the An Family’s old girl and why she returned.
Seeing An’an walking towards the yard, Xiaoxiao sighed to the sky, girl, did you forget sothing? Did I give you those twenty Silver for nothing? Shouldn’t you help your sister at this ti?
Being embraced by her parents, An’an took a few steps and then freed herself from their hold, "Father, Mother, wait a mont."
The old couple was puzzled but allowed their daughter to go.
An’an went to Xiaoxiao’s side, holding her arm affectionately, "Sister, you’re here at my house, right? Let’s go inside together."
An’an pulled Xiaoxiao towards the yard, and at this mont, Xiaoxiao truly believed in the saying that good deeds are rewarded. If it weren’t for eting this girl on the road, they wouldn’t have been able to enter the An Family’s door.
Perhaps, heaven has its arrangents.
Just like that, Xiaoxiao and her family of three followed An’an into the yard, and the old An couple, seeing the people their daughter brought back, widened their eyes instantly.
Xiaoxiao was puzzled by their reaction but remained very polite, nodding and smiling, "Uncle, Aunt."
"Father, Mother, let’s talk inside," said An’an.
