Ms. Qian furrowed her brows, "You're only twenty-six, still young. Are you not going to marry and instead stay home for a lifetime?"
In the house, it was just the three of them, mother and daughters, so Ms. Qian didn't have to hold back. In a low voice, she said, "Right now, your father and I are here, and you staying at home is fine. But what will you do when we're gone and your brothers have divided up the home? Who will you go with?"
Manbao anxiously said, "With me, with me."
"Shut up," Ms. Qian tapped her forehead and said, "You also need to get married. Do you plan on taking an elder sister with you when you do? I've never heard of such a thing."
Manbao pouted.

What if her family looked down on her for bringing shame and didn't want to take her in?
