Protagonist:

Chai Mi

The Song Qiushui of her previous life was that unlucky young lady.

Thinking of the Song Qiushui of her previous life, Chai Mi couldn't help but sigh.

The Song Qiushui of her previous life was also in a free love relationship with Chai Dajun...

Back then Song Qiushui also thought this Chai Dajun looked decent and was a decent person.

Chai Dajun was tall, fair-skinned, and wearing a white shirt gave him a rather dashing feel, which captivated Song Qiushui.

Back then Song Qiushui started taking the initiative; she found her cousin sister Song Qiuping, who was Chai You Fu's wife and Chai Mi's Second Aunt, to discuss this matter.

In her previous life, the relationship between Chai You Fu and Chai You De's two families was still quite close, unlike now... now they aren't that close anymore...

Song Qiuping initially felt this matter was mismatched in seniority—her own cousin sister suddenly becoming her niece's wife—it was somewhat unreasonable.

But unable to withstand Song Qiushui's soft persistence, Song Qiuping helplessly went with Chai You Fu to broker both families, becoming the matchmaker for the two.

Although at first Song Qiushui's father Song Qingshan strongly opposed it, after all Song Qingshan always felt the families were mismatched... but since his own daughter was willing, he had no choice.

Just like that, the two families were actually still relatives by this reckoning, and soon the process reached the betrothal stage.

Here they call the betrothal "exchanging cups."

Of course, exchanging cups cannot be considered a traditional betrothal; this form is far more complex than betrothal.

Chai Mi didn't know how this exchanging cups ceremony was passed down; anyway, this ceremony existed in the surrounding area.

Locally, exchanging cups generally means both families' parents have talked things over, the matchmaker has done what needed doing, and then both families hold a ceremony similar to a wedding.

Exchanging cups requires giving part of the bride price, and notifying all relatives and friends.

Other places might have this custom, but Liaoxi here is more simplified; exchanging cups generally only notifies direct relatives, they will also set out a wedding feast, and also return gifts and such.

Song Qiushui and Chai Dajun in their previous life did exchange cups between their two families.

As for what bride price and what chaos, it won't be described.

The point is, after Song Qiushui and Chai Dajun exchanged cups, logically the next step would be marriage.

As long as two people reached the step of exchanging cups, it was basically almost like marriage—the wine that should be drunk was drunk, the words that should be said were said.

As a result...

As a result, less than three or five days later, Chai Dajun and Song Qiushui went out to play on the mountain; since Song Qiushui was young at the time, still young in age, her face might have, because of drinking a few cups during the exchanging cups a couple days before, grown several pimples—although not to the point of being covered all over, she indeed grew some pimples.

It should have been caused by alcohol allergy.

But Chai Dajun refused; he said Song Qiushui was ugly...

This absurdly ridiculous excuse—Song Qiushui initially didn't take it seriously. But when they got home, Chai Dajun said it was impossible, he wanted to break the engagement, saying Song Qiushui had pimples on her face and was unworthy of his handsome and carefree image.

At the time it completely left Song Qiuping stunned...

Song Qiuping even thought she had misheard; how could a perfectly good marriage just fail because a few pimples grew on her face?

This was just too fucking bizarre!

But not only did Chai Dajun want to break the engagement, even Che Lianyun along with Chai You De, and Chai Zhongxiao and these people all agreed that this marriage couldn't happen—this girl was ugly.

She had pimples on her face.

Song Qiuping made a huge scene at the Chai family's old house, but it was still to no avail.
