Chapter 574 - The Box

Song Ning fell deep into her thoughts. After a moment, she said, "I can't really think of anything now. The embroidery manual was passed down from my grandmother's side of the family. It was part of my grandmother's dowry. Traditionally, it was passed down to female descendants. Each generation would choose an outstanding daughter to inherit the embroidery manual. In the olden days, the person who inherited the embroidery manual had to marry a husband into the family instead of the other way around to ensure that the embroidery manual stayed in the family. In any case, my grandmother had always been open-minded. Hence, when it came to my mother, my grandmother didn't say anything when my mother married my father. She told my mother that when she was no longer around, if I wasn't good at embroidery, the embroidery manual should be donated to the country since it's the quintessence of the nation."
