686 deed of sale is gone.

Xiao Qinghe also looked taken aback.

Yuchuan strongly nodded, "I swear by the parents in my grave, really!"

Her drained shoulders stiffened, "You're always using your parents to swear..."

"Only to show how serious the matter is."

"Alright." She asked calmly, "When did this happen?"

"A while ago. It was the day when I went to sell goods, came back quite late, and made thirty copper coins."

"That was indeed some time ago." Su Qingyue nodded, "So, am I free now?"

"Yes." He nodded. Actually, he had first taken her deed of sale to the town's government office and only after that did he tear up the contract. Although she was no longer a slave, in the Household Marriage Registration records at the government's office, she was his… Xiao Yuchuan's wife.

This was done behind everyone's back. Second Brother and Fourth Brother were both oblivious.

Except for him and those involved in the Marriage Registration, nobody knew.
