The marriage between Changsheng and Huiniang was decided before they were even born.
The two families have known each other for many years. A boy and a girl are childhood sweethearts, and they have a marriage contract left by their parents. Everyone in the town feels that it is only natural for them to get married when they grow up.
Hui Niang has always felt this way.
It wasn't until one day that she found out that the Du family had hidden this from the Zhao family for many years.
When Changsheng was born, he was not the "son" that the Zhao family thought he was.
Is the engagement a sham? Is the friendship we grew up with over the years also fake?
What Changsheng thought about for the first time was not how to keep this marriage.
She wants to break off the engagement.
Because she really wanted to marry Hui Niang, but she understood more and more that wanting someone and being qualified to ask that person to marry her were two different things.
The old engagement was annulled.
But after the engagement was gone, Hui Niang really started to think for the first time:
Without the words her parents had promised her, would she have chosen immortality?
Purpose: A true marriage is not about fulfilling the old covenant, but about being willing to make new choices after getting to know each other.
