In this sort of cultural tradition, even if many contemporary women and their husbands enjoy a substantial level of educational achievement and income, when these women return to their mother-in-law's house, they still come down a notch, afraid of offending at every turn, making their in-laws unhappy and causing trouble for their husbands.
在這樣的文化傳統下，儘管許多現代女性擁有與先生旗鼓相當的學歷、收入，但是回到婆家的感覺常常是矮了一截，深怕動輒得咎，惹公婆不高興、先生為難。
