"Old Fourth, don't speak!"
Old Yuan glanced at Yuan Zhaodi, then turned to Mrs. Xiao Li and said, "Fourth daughter-in-law, discuss this matter with Old Fourth when you get back. Whatever you two decide will be final!"
Mrs. Xiao Li glanced at her father-in-law and then lowered her head.
In fact, just as Mrs. Li had mentioned earlier, Mrs. Xiao Li also had concerns in her heart about the special treatment Yuan Bao received.
In this era, men were prioritized over women.
Women's status was always lower than men's.
Whether it was Mrs. Li, Mrs. Song, or Mrs. Peng, or even Mrs. Xiao Li, when they were girls in their parental home, their status was not as high as their brothers'.
When it came to work, they had to be at the forefront; during mealtime, they had to line up at the back, or just watch.
In their hearts, sons were more important than daughters.
Even if it was their own daughters, they shouldn't be more important than sons.
