arranged marriage.
Marriage that is arranged by the head of household or parental authority regardless of the will of the parties for their own benefit or purpose.
Well, this is the definition in the dictionary, and in reality, the more crazy thing is the arranged marriage.
It usually consists of having an engagement first, and this process has been made simple and easy.
First, let’s take two families as an example.
Suppose that family A has a lot of money but lacks status and honor, and family B has a high status but lacks money and has a lot of desire to do business.
If so, the two families will have to join forces for the benefit of each other.
However, there are many sailors, so they only doubt each other and doubt each other.
In order to overcome this situation, we had to put restrictions on each other.
An engagement under the guise of an arranged marriage.
By betrothing each other’s children, they enter into a kind of unbreakable contract.
Even if one of them betrays them, their honor will suffer greatly during the official engagement period.
Of course, it is a risk-free business because it is possible to break off the engagement after making all the profits as long as you are engaged.
What if you want to break up the engagement but one party refuses?
Is the engagement broken? Or is an arranged marriage still going on?
As long as one party wants it in the first place, the engagement becomes a real arranged marriage, not a substitute for a contract.
We know each other well anyway, and we can roll the profits that have been called together afterwards.

“That’s… what are you talking about? Is it true that you’re going to get engaged without breaking off the engagement?”
“Well, it’s not bad. Your family isn’t bad either, and you achieved your dream too.”
A man called Xian had a scuffle in the family room early in the morning.
The subject, of course, is the marriage to oneself.
The engagement, which was believed to be broken, was not broken, but rather pushed forward.
“No, obviously with the intention of breaking up the engagement…”
“Sian. You agreed to the engagement, too.”
“That’s for the sake of family relationships.”
The mother, the owner of the house, looked at her son, who had been fussing since morning, as if he was pathetic.
She wanted to say something to the worthless child who rebelled against her words.
“So? Remember what the lessons you’ve been taking are for.”
‘Yes I…’
No matter how this engagement progressed, it was imprinted on the fact that my influence was not very strong.
I am.
because he’s a man
This world is a medieval society where women are superior. A man like me was like a piece of chess used for marriage.
“Can’t we at least graduate from the academy before deciding?”
“That’s a matter for the fiancé and the family to decide.”
“At least let me send you a letter.”
“You don’t have to.”
Mother cut off further conversation and quietly drew the curtains to show outside the window.
What catches Xian’s eyes is a carriage coming in from the fancy front gate.
When I saw the pattern on the carriage, my doubts were cleared.
“Did you have a direct conversation?”
“…”
fiance. No, the person who might be my wife came to visit me in person.
