Chapter 1045: Xiao'ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

"Pah, pah, pah, I'm not that unlucky; I'm doing well right now," Aunt Zhao took another thorough look at Xia Dabao: "You're defending him so vehemently, could it be that you've taken a liking to him? No wonder you rejected our Datu's marriage proposal, Abao. We're neighbors, and I've watched you grow up since you were a child. Let me give you a word of advice—if you're thinking of getting married, you better open your eyes wide. A poor lad like Tian Xiaobei may be able to endure hardship with you, but I fear he won't be able to share the good times. You'll see, if one day he rises high, he'll forget you entirely."

Xia Dabao didn't like to hear this and she was never the type to swallow an insult or to suffer in silence. She just smiled and retorted, "No matter how bad Tian Xiaobei may be, he's still better than your Datu who only knows how to fight and bully the weak. I'd marry anyone but him."
