In 1985, the family planning policy was very strict, with many people discarding their daughters hoping to have a son instead.
Who could guarantee that they would have a son on their first try?
So, when Shangguan Xi and that male classmate were dating, not only did Grandma Shangguan disagree, but both Shangguan Dehui and Ni Cuihua disagreed as well.
Ni Cuihua, deeply affected by the preference for boys over girls, did not want her daughter to experience the same pain she had.
Although Shangguan Xi was not her biological daughter, she loved her no less.
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zheng shook her head firmly, "It's good that it ended, good that it ended! Xiaoxi is such an honest child, she couldn't have coped in that kind of family."
Shangguan Xi's personality resembled that of the deceased Xu Fen, gentle and slow-spoken. If she had to deal with a difficult mother-in-law, she wouldn't manage.
