There is a law in Dajing: unmarried women over the age of twenty-two must pay a fine to the court every year.
The fine was not much, but it was very humiliating.
Leng Shuyi had been on blind dates for many times without success, and was looking sad.
A young man said: "Sister, I will marry you in the future."
Leng Shuyi knocked his forehead: "I am your sister."
The young man raised his eyebrows: "It's not like we're biological."
Four years later, Prince Dajing rescued three women in the Western Regions. One of them had his mother's relic hanging on her chest: Leng Ningxiang.
He was shocked: Sister, it turns out you are still alive.
Under the starry sky of the Western Region, Leng Shuyi spent her twenty-fifth birthday gently smelling the long-lost Leng Ningxiang that she had recreated.
Someone hugged her from behind:
"Sister, you are already twenty-five years old, do you really not think about getting married?"
She blushed and pushed the man away:
"Since I have paid the fine, I have to double the fine and earn it back."
"Okay, I'll accompany you."
Purpose: Daughters should be self-reliant
