The old woman thought he was a child from some family in the village. She was old and couldn't remember any young children. So she said, "Didn't the youngest daughter of the Chai family break off her engagement a few days ago? This time she's engaged to a good family. I heard it's from the town."
Shen Yu'an's heart skipped a beat, and she asked, "She broke off her engagement? Who did she break off her engagement with? When did she break it off?"
Seeing Shen Yu'an's eagerness, the old woman seemed somewhat suspicious of his identity: "Whose family are you? Why are you asking about Tinglian?"
