Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
When a man marries his father's brother's daughter, property is retained in the groom's male line. This is because this type of marriage is a form of patrilineal parallel cousin marriage, where the groom and his cousin are members of the same patrilineage and the property remains within that patrilineage.
