Although Zhao Yi was not yet married, she was already betrothed to Liu Zhenhai, and many people had long considered her a part of the Liu Family. Over the years, no man had dared to approach her, partly because of her sensitive status and partly for fear of offending the Liu Family.
The patriarch of the Zhao Family was a stubborn, old-fashioned man who believed that once his granddaughter was engaged to Liu Zhenhai, she was practically considered half a daughter-in-law to the Liu Family. Hence, he would insist that Zhao Yi visit the Liu Family every time the New Year or other festivals came around.
