Annotation :::: The paper takes a sociological approach to discuss and analyse the issue of women in labour migration. Using methods of field research, the author finds that most young women migrant workers would like to return to their home villages after marriage because of institutional restrictions and for individual reasons. According to on-site investigation in several villages, such adverse migration can be divided into five types: attaining contentment; returning to work in the urban area; woman escaping marriage; wife committing suicide; and the couple residing in the urban area. Some factors like the exchange of information in the couple before marriage, the synchronization of marriage-related migration, and community migration become key variables affecting the quality of marriage for women migrants.
