The Wu family still favors sons over daughters, even in this new era.
Unlike her younger sister, who has numbly accepted her lot, the older sister has never been willing to give in. Her resentment festers until she becomes twisted, but in the end, she will break free of the fate laid out for her.
Because, amazingly, someone is reaching out to pull her up. She can't give up.
After escaping, Wu Dabai changed her name at the first opportunity.
Wu Bingwu: a name that means there will be no more sons. She only wishes for there to be no more sons.
Theme: Not worth it.
