Xu Yun smiled and said, "Although we joked about getting the two engaged when they were young, the children are grown up and have their own ideas now. We're not old-fashioned parents; we should listen to and respect our kids' opinions. I've given my children plenty of freedom, so they grew up very independent, including Shi Xiu. I've never forced my kids to get married, and I won't start now."
Bai Jie smiled. "Of course. It's the twenty-first century after all—arranged marriages are a thing of the past. However, it's really not an easy feat to find a suitable marriage partner for families like ours. I don't mind if the kids want a love match, but we can't just let them fool around, right?"
