Abstract：As a special marriage pattern, uxorilocal marriage has provided good ideas for solving the current rural endowment problem in the area of pension resources arrangements and allocation. Based on the survey of Shanxi rural areas, we found that the intergenerational relationship in rural uxorilocal marriage had changed with the new characteristics such as separate living in coexistence with economic independence, and deepened emotion related with intergenerational harmony. Moreover, the endowment demands of the wifes parents in uxorilocal marriage also have transformed from the most basic economic support to a higher level of emotional needs, but the common sense of endowment in rural areas was no longer stable. “Uxorilocal marriage in the disguise of normal marriage” and “taking care of the parents from both sides” had made the rural uxorilocal marriage endowment be faced with challenges different from the past. Therefore, it is necessary to further explore the development changes of rural uxorilocal marriage from the realities.
