"Silly child, what are you thinking?" Ni Cuihua continued, "As women, it's only natural for us to marry!"
Ni Yang raised an eyebrow slightly, "But why must a girl get married? Mom, don't you see we are doing just fine without men now? Not only have we managed to survive, but we're also living better than before! This just shows that men aren't necessary at all!"
Ni Cuihua was momentarily speechless.
Because what Ni Yang said did make sense.
After pondering for a moment, Ni Cuihua answered, "But if you don't get married and have children, who will take care of you when you're old?"
Ni Cuihua, having not received an education, was narrow-minded and held a small worldview.
The confining notion that a woman's purpose was to bear children was deeply ingrained in her.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have previously felt guilty for being unable to produce a son.
Such misconceptions needed to be rectified.
