Being born a girl to a patriarchal family, which was quite a piece of bad news since to a patriarchal family, boys were always the main priority, boys were always the best.
Her parents thought that only boys could do amazing things once they grew old or provide for them so they were stupidly partial to her waste of a brother. However, due to being excessively favored and pampered, the brother instead grew into a game addict, a bag of straws that only wanted to depend on his parents forever.
Yet although the parents could see this, they still preferred him over her, their diligent and intelligent daughter. The reason? Simply because he was a boy, and they thought that all boys go through their rebellious phase, and then after that, things would be on the right track. He would go back to the right course and do stuff that would make them proud.
They never saw Shao Ying's excellence.
