娶妻首選川妹子：內外兼修
Net users are questioning whether people are after love or money in marriage, after survey respondents admitted that they prefer big city spouses from developed eastern China if they cannot find a partner in their hometown.
近來有受訪者表示如果在家鄉找不到合適的伴侶，不排除會在發達的中國東部擇偶的可能。網友就開始騷動了，婚姻究竟是愛情至上還是金錢至上？
he comments come after a widely circulated online survey by a Beijing-based consultancy found that a majority of the 1,000-plus respondents - 54.5 percent of men and 57.7 percent of women - prefer to go after a partners from their hometown before chasing a spouse from richer cities like Beijing and Shanghai. A partner from poorer regions like Gansu and Qinghai provinces was found to be the most unwanted.
這項網絡上瘋狂流傳的在線調查由北京某諮詢公司發起，調查顯示在大約1000多名受訪者中，有54.5%的男性和57.7%的女性傾向找本土伴侶，其次才考慮較富裕城市人選，比如北京和上海。而像甘肅和青海較爲貧窮的省份，選擇性最小。該調查一出，則引起了網友的爭議。
While some Beijing and Shanghai locals were flattered by the results, other Net users said that the people from outside provinces only prefer the city-slickers "because of their urban hukou (household registration) and the fact that they live in China's richest places."
一些北京和上海的居民卻對該結果表示受寵若驚，有網友就說了外省人在這結婚僅僅是因爲隱形的城市誘因。“比如城市戶口和中國最富裕城市的居住環境。”
The survey also revealed Sichuan women, known for their beauty in China, as the most popular among men (13.6 percent), while women from South China tended toward men from North China and vise versa for northern Chinese men.
該調查同樣揭示了因美貌而出名的四川女性在廣大男性中的受歡迎度（有13.6%的男性選擇），而中國南方的女性更傾向選擇來自中國北方的男人，也就是北方漢子。"
The results definitely reflect the common notion that men want a beautiful woman while women want a rich husband," said Net user Huangjinchangleweiyanggong.
“這項調查顯然反映了一個普遍觀念：男人想娶一個美麗的妻子，而女人想嫁一個富裕的丈夫，”網友’黃金長樂未央宮’說道。
But Net user Kunxuehan said that creating a "happy and harmonious family" is the ultimate pursuit of a couple "no matter where a partner comes from or regardless of how much their spouse earns."
但是網友’昆雪寒’卻說：“打造幸福和諧的家庭是夫妻雙方共同追求的終極目標，無論對方來自哪裏，也無論對方的收入是多少。”
Net user Qinqin said that Sichuan women are hardworking and virtuous, which is why they are so appreciated by all Chinese men.
網友’親親’說：“四川女性勤勞善良，這也是爲什麼大多數中國男人欣賞的原因。”
