What was the old society in China like?

Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, under the control of the concept of "early marriage, early adoption and early benefit", underage men and women got married prematurely. The youngest marriage age for men is 12, and the youngest marriage age for women is 15. Some parents define their children as "early marriage" or consanguineous marriage, which leads to marriage tragedy and deformity of offspring. 1950 after the promulgation and implementation of the marriage law, this vulgar custom was gradually curbed until it was eradicated. In the old society, the social status of women was very low. Women are deprived of the right to study and participate in social activities, and even the right to inherit. In the old society, women began to wrap their feet at the age of five or six and wrapped them tightly with cloth to inhibit their growth until they formed pointed feet. The old custom regards feet as beauty, resulting in many women being artificially disabled for life, which is a typical manifestation of women's oppression in feudal society. 1950 after the implementation of the marriage law, it advocated equality between men and women, and now it has gradually abandoned the old concept of son preference. In the old society, gambling prevailed in the countryside, and gambling such as watching cards, playing mahjong, rolling dice and gambling was openly set up. There were so many participants that some gamblers lost all their money. In the old society, the science was underdeveloped, the villagers' cultural level was low, and they had a deep belief in superstitious ghosts and gods. Superstitious activities such as asking witches for immortality but not seeking medical treatment, fortune-telling and praying for rain to the Dragon King are prevalent during the drought of geomantic omen. Bring spiritual constraints and property losses to the villagers. After the founding of New China, with the popularization of scientific knowledge, superstition became increasingly indifferent.
