Married young: Meet China's teenage brides - CNN.com: "Thirteen and just married, Jie looks at her wedding picture framed in white. Next to it, incongruously, are stickers from the Pixar movie "Cars."
Jie married her 16-year-old husband three days after they met during the Lunar New Year in 2014. Not long after, she was pregnant.
It sounds like a scene from China's feudal past, when early marriage was customary, especially for girls, but teenage brides and grooms aren't uncommon in some poor and rural parts of the country's hinterland."
