My Mother
My mother had lived in my hometown before she married my father. My father’s family lived in a small village. According to Chinese tradition, women were supposed to live in their husbands’ families after they married.
My mother was considered to go to a bad place from a good place as the living conditions in towns were always better than those in villages.
Since my father worked for the local government, my mother did most of the housework and farm work for my family.
My mother had a bad temper. She got angry easily. My siblings and I were often scolded or beaten by her. I couldn’t get along with her.
She liked to have the privilege to speak to others, which led people not to like her. I told her about this many times, but she never took my suggestions.
She lived in the village for a few years after my father died, and then she moved to the city to live near my sister and me.
During the time she lived in the same city as my sister and me, we often visited her and took her somewhere for sightseeing.
Compared to my father, my mother lived a happy life in her later years as we were still poor in the years before my father died.
China has a saying “父母在，人生尚有来处；父母不在，人生只有归途”. It may be translated into English like this: You still have a place to return to when your parents are alive, but when they pass away, you only have the road back.

According to Chinese tradition, women were supposed to livemarry into their husband's’ families after they marriedy.
Here you can either say "live with their husband's family" to just say they lived with them but were not an official member, or "marry into their husband's family" to say they actually became official members with the same family name. You can say "families," but subject-object agreement is not necessary. In this case, plural "families," sounds a bit unnatural to me.
