     In Wu-feng hsien “the marriage contract of a pan-tzu pan-hsü only stipulates that the son-in-law is "to support his parents-in-law while they live and to bury them when they die. It does not specify the number of years he is to remain with the family." But in Chu-ch’i hsien, Ma-ch’eng hsien, and Hsing-shan hsien, "the agreement specifies how long he is to remain with his parents-in-law or notes that he cannot return home until they die."
