THE HUMBLE FAMILY'S DAUGHTER HAS A SPATIAL POCKET!

Chapter 293: Chapter 274, Degrees of Kinship_1

Daohua had always been reluctant to marry.

Even though she had lived in ancient times for twelve years and had grown accustomed to the rules of the era, there were still some concepts she found unacceptable.

Ancient marriage customs emphasized parental authority and the matchmaker’s words, valuing the alignment of social status and family interests above all, with little to no concern for the affections between the man and woman involved.

Many people got married without even having seen each other’s face.

The very thought of living the majority of her life with a complete stranger made Daohua shiver uncontrollably.

In these ancient times, families who were slightly indulgent towards their children would, at most, allow the prospective bride and groom to meet during the matchmaking process. Daohua’s desire for shared values, temperament, and mutual understanding was nothing short of a daytime fantasy.

Moreover, she had no sacrificial spirit to speak of, managing concubines and educating illegitimate children for the sake of a so-called husband was out of the question for her.

Not to mention the inescapable mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship.

Could someone like her lead a good married life?

Her fifteen-year-old cousin Sister Zixuan had already started the matchmaking process. Daohua herself was twelve this year. Wouldn’t that mean, in three years, she would face the same situation?

In the modern world, marriage was a choice: people could decide to marry late, to choose their partners, or to live alone. But in these ancient times, if she dared to say she did not want to marry, even the grandmother who doted on her the most would jump out in strong opposition.

Daohua felt increasingly restless, her future life seeming vague and unsettling. She did not want to compromise, yet she did not know where the way out was.

Meanwhile, Madam Li prattled on. Suddenly, her gaze swept over and noticed her daughter daydreaming, and she felt somewhat helpless. “Are you even listening to your mother?”
