Ma Xiulan sighed, "I've really worried my heart out in this life."
"Get Su Wen to pay to support the elderly!" Su Dachun made up his mind.
"But... But which family would let their granddaughter support the elderly? Aren't sons the ones who support their parents in their old age?"
In the countryside, it was the sons who took care of their parents' old age. Generally, after the daughter got married, she would buy things and come back to visit during the holidays. When it came to buying clothes for their parents, celebrating their birthdays, and other things, their sons would be the ones who provided for them.
What parents earned in their entire lives was given to their sons. The daughters didn't get anything. Even the betrothal gift money for marriage had to be given to their brothers.
Therefore, the villagers tacitly agreed that daughters did not need to be supported unless they had no sons.
