    Lightlend, any divorced woman with kids is almost next to impossible to get marry again in China, and she is with a mix-blood. It looks to me she is pushing you, she might just not thinking right, for her, divoce is lose cause.
    I have a feeling she is spoiled child, without consider her family wealth, i make no conclusion.

    Another cultural note...If the girl is not married around Spring Festival time, her Friends will give her money, even her Boss at work will give the unmarried female money!!
    again....Shameful

    so there is a strong push not to be single
    True. The money is put in red envelope. It's also a custom.

    p.s. Silly me, I didn't read daughter (left to you) part closely. One attemp to solve problem is to contact parents-in-law. Probabaly need a translator. Unlike other cultures, Chinese parents influnce their child's decision in great deal.
