"We've finally had Jin Gui, and we just want him to have a good life. Now that you sisters are capable, you should help your own brother. If the brother from your maternal family is doing well, it reflects well on you, and you'll have someone to stand up for you when you face grievances in your marital home."
Liu's family said it as if it were the most natural thing, as if a woman's life is only to serve men, right?
She had regarded this as the truth for half her life.
Qiao Duo'er rolled her eyes. Dependent on others for a living, how could one stand firm for oneself, let alone support others?
Cough, cough, not that kind of "stand."
But judging by Qiao Jingu's frail appearance, it seemed unlikely anyway.
Qiao Laixi, afraid that Liu's family might ruin things, quickly said, "Your mother and I have thought it over, and all the silver in the world isn't as good as having the family together. From now on, even if we have to beg for food, we won't sell our children."
