Indeed, rural women are often entrenched in their ways. Look at Guo Hongxiang, the daughter of a capitalist—despite her young age and the upheaval she faced, her insight and cunning were ingrained in her very being. She found her daughter a husband who worked as an accountant in the city; not only did his workplace provide a spacious apartment, but the couple also enjoyed their independence in a separate residence.
As for her son, the daughter-in-law she chose was a young educated woman, initially viewed with suspicion by some as a restless vixen. There were whispers that she longed to return to the city once married. Yet now, it seemed clear that she genuinely wished to build a life with that scoundrel Yexun.
