The second sister is getting married and is engaged to Wang Yuzhi, the eldest son of the Wang family.

I sat with my eyes closed in the carriage, but my mind was filled with thoughts of the second sister.

Wang Yuzhi, the eldest son of the Wang family, has a good reputation in the capital city. He has a handsome appearance and is very considerate and caring towards women. He is often referred to as "the reincarnation of Pan An".

His father, Mr. Wang, is known for his integrity as an official and remains faithful to his deceased wife. He has not remarried even after many years.

A priceless treasure is easy to find, but a lover with true feelings is hard to come by.

Such a family background, such a husband.

This should be a perfect match, or so everyone thinks.

Except for me.

The summer in the capital city is quite hot, and the cicadas on the streets have not yet finished their chorus.

Accompanied by the intermittent "chirping" sound, the voices of people discussing the matter entered my ears.

"Miss Liu from the Liu family is truly a good person with good fortunes. Young Master Wang is talented and good-looking, and his character is highly esteemed. He is truly a rare ideal husband. From now on, she will live a life of happiness."

"Yes, Miss Liu is kind-hearted. She deserves such good fortune. It's truly a blessing from the Bodhisattva."

"Indeed, a few years ago, when our hometown was hit by a flood, I fled to the capital city with my wife and children. Thanks to Miss Liu's three months of daily porridge distribution, my wife, who had just given birth, would have died without her."

"Miss Liu is such a good person..."

"..."

"Pang Er, drive the carriage faster!"

I pinched my brow tightly and urged the coachman loudly, hoping to drive away those piercing congratulatory voices from my ears.

Along with Pang Er's response came the increasingly jolting and creaking sound of the wheels.
