Her grandmother declared:
“Your mother has been married for twenty years and gave birth to only one daughter. That counts as one of the Seven Grounds for Divorceāfailure to produce a son. She should be grateful she wasn’t cast aside already!”
Her father said:
“I risked my life on the frontier so that you and your mother could enjoy honor and status in the capital. She should learn to be satisfied.”
Mother and daughter join forces to tear apart the scumbag father’s carefully crafted facade and expose the grandmother’s hypocrisy.

In a world where women are expected to survive only by depending on men, she refuses to accept that fate.
If no path exists for women, then she will carve one out herself.a
