Indeed, at the beginning of spring, Lou Zheng and his wife had sent someone to propose marriage to the He Family. The He Family also agreed to the match, so Wu Erli and He Dingyu were indeed engaged. It was perfectly reasonable for Wu Erli to come to the aid of his fiancee.
"Uncle Lou Zheng, aren't you going to stand up for your future daughter-in-law?" A few of Dingyu's close friends giggled, rallying Dingyu from the side.
Under normal circumstances, since both families were simply engaged and not married, Lou Zheng, as the future father-in-law, should not be the one to intervene.
However, Lou Zheng, not wanting his future daughter-in-law to be bullied, concurred with the girls, "Since she is engaged to us, she is part of the Wu Family, and no one should bully her."
"Exactly, Erli, if anyone dares to bully Ayu, give him a good thrashing." Before Lou Zheng could instruct his son, his wife, hearing the conversation, instructed Wu Erli first.
