"I’m begging you, can you act normal? I don’t know if you gain anything, but what gets harmed in the end is women’s rights!"

Many netizens started making jokes about it.

"What’s the probability that your son is really yours?

Eighty percent!

Why only eighty percent?

The other twenty percent belongs to someone else [tongue out]."

"You should probably check their skin color for that remaining twenty percent, right?"

"Bro, don’t look at me like that, you know me, if I’m dating you, his brother’s tuition would have to buy me a handbag too."

"High dowry!

Tough mother-in-law!

Old relatives from Gan Province are both tall and tough!"

"I’m a guy, but I’ve always thought what they’re saying makes sense. I don’t know why just because I support them, many men around me have isolated me. I want to find someone to talk to, preferably a long-legged lolita."

"Damn! It was outrageous enough in ’Let The Bullets Fly,’ now you’re making money off a war!"

"The abacus beads are hitting me in the face, get out!"

"..."

Granny Wang couldn’t listen anymore, passionately grabbing the mic:

"Let me ask you, do you know how much an average person can earn in their lifetime?"

The old woman sneered, "Why would I care about average people, why should I care about them?"

Granny Wang looked at the audience and said, word by word:

"Let’s assume an average person starts working at twenty-five and retires at sixty-five, working for forty years.

If I remember correctly, last year’s average monthly salary for new graduates was six thousand yuan, so let’s calculate it as six thousand yuan per month.

Six thousand yuan a month, that’s seventy-two thousand a year, for forty years, a total of 2.88 million!

That means, in a lifetime, an average person can’t even make three million if they don’t eat or drink!

And this is under the condition that this person can’t take any days off, can’t get sick, can’t be laid off, and the family doesn’t need to be taken care of!"

Then, Granny Wang sighed: "A dowry of six hundred thousand, what you’re asking for is not a dowry but his life."

The old woman just rolled her eyes: "So what? My daughter is so outstanding, why would she marry an average person?"

Then she turned to a male guest and, in a tone that ordered servants, said disdainfully:

"You should be able to afford this dowry, right? We haven’t even talked about the house and car."

"Ah, I..."

The male guest widened his eyes, just about to say something, when the old woman interrupted him.

"Okay, okay, even if you can’t afford this dowry, your parents can, right? Have your parents fork out the money, surely that’s fine."

The male guest wasn’t angry initially, so he didn’t confront her, but showed more tolerance.

After all, he wasn’t interested in this woman and didn’t plan to interact with her in the future.

Given that, in front of the camera, he decided to act magnanimously, no big deal.

But now, the old woman’s words made him nauseous, staying here a minute longer felt like an insult to his dignity.

Without saying a word, he left the stage and soon disappeared from sight.

Seeing this, the old woman couldn’t hold back her ridicule: "Ugh, a man who doesn’t even respect women, I would never want him! If my daughter really got with him, who knows what kind of miserable life she’d have, disgusting!"

Viewers of the live stream felt as if they were struck by Five Thunders, feeling deeply uncomfortable.

"Now I finally understand why the ancients always emphasized family upbringing, ’leading by example’ is not an empty phrase. Just look at them, it’s so evident."

"Like mother, like daughter, this is truly frightening. Meeting the parents when discussing marriage isn’t just about the future mother-in-law assessing the groom, the groom also needs to evaluate the parents."

"What shamelessness! It’s obvious they weren’t interested in your daughter, why are you stubbornly holding on? Why demand money from their parents? On what grounds?"

"I don’t even have to think—I can guess with my toes that once their parents fully pay for the house, she’ll surely insist on adding her daughter’s name to the deed, claiming it’s to protect her daughter’s rights, and then demand an agreement, calling it ’voluntary’."

"I can’t hold it in! Dude, what you’re describing is exactly what I went through. I wasn’t even married to my ex-wife for three years before she wanted a divorce. Now the dowry of three hundred thousand is gone, and she took half the house, which means she took thirty years of our family’s savings in three years."

"Huh? Dude, that’s horrible, isn’t that a social disaster?"

"Hold on, pause this for a moment. I see this guy’s IP is from Sichuan Province, dude, you’re not even from Gan Province, go to court!"

"Court? How do I fight a case where the entire bench from the judge to the jury is male? What can I use to fight, what can I fight with?"

"..."

Granny Wang could no longer hold back what was in her heart.

From the start, she felt very uncomfortable with the customs and traditions here.

She was repeatedly bombarded by absurd mentalities and could no longer tolerate it.

"No, I can’t agree with you, why do you assume the man can’t make your daughter happy? Or do you really think your daughter is so exceptional that he would fancy her?"

The old woman’s expression changed, but before she could speak, Granny Wang completely took over the stage.

"Many of us are brainwashed by some foreign ideologies, saying that if a guy doesn’t spend money on the girl, it means he doesn’t love her."
