Outline of Xiao Guxian's Story (1953)

Yao's husband died at the age of 25, and she raised a son and a daughter with great pains. Daughter Yingying is born smart, and son Meng is very filial. After Meng got married, the couple had a good relationship, but Yao, who had feudal thoughts, was very unhappy about it. Yao loves his daughter very much, just like the apple of his eye, but he regards his daughter-in-law as a thorn in his side and often makes much ado about nothing. One day, the daughter-in-law brought breakfast to her mother-in-law. Mother-in-law criticized her cooking for lacking salt and sauce, which was not to her taste. She deliberately embarrassed her daughter-in-law and asked her to cook 86 meals for her to choose at once. Daughter-in-law really can't. Yao's excuse was that his daughter-in-law intended to hit her, so she picked up the whip and hit her. At this moment, it happened that my daughter Ying Ying came into the room, begged her hastily, and promised to make another bowl of noodles for her mother. Ying Ying saw that her sister-in-law cooked a good dish, so she took the bowl of noodles made by her sister-in-law out of the room and brought it in again. Yao thought it was really his daughter's cooking, and kept praising it while eating. After dinner, Yao found fault with his daughter-in-law, thinking that the yard she swept was not clean and the soles were not neat. Ying Ying was afraid that her mother would blame her sister-in-law, so she said that she did all these things, such as sweeping the yard and taking care of the soles. Yao immediately turned anger into joy and praised his daughter for her skill. Ying Ying was very dissatisfied with his mother's partiality, so he told the truth on the spot, which embarrassed her. Yao became angry from embarrassment and put the blame on his daughter-in-law, accusing her of teaching her sister-in-law badly and killing her. When Ying Ying found something bad, he used his quick wits. On the one hand, he advised his mother to give his sister-in-law to his younger brother for discipline, on the other hand, he taught his younger brother how to pretend to beat his sister-in-law. According to Sister Meng's plan, he deliberately dragged his wife into the house angrily, hit the chair cushion with a stick, and made her pretend to cry and die to scare her mother. Yao thought that his daughter-in-law had really been killed, and he was going to sue for death. He trembled with fear. Ying Ying saw that her mother regretted it, so she pretended to save her sister-in-law, and her sister-in-law pretended to come back from the dead. Yao was relieved to see his daughter-in-law awake. Ying Ying took the opportunity to help her mother get through feudal thoughts, and for a pretence cried and jumped into the well to commit suicide, fearing that she would meet her mother-in-law like her mother when she got married. Seeing this, Yao was very anxious. Faced with the conditions put forward by her daughter, she can't be angry with her sister-in-law and let her eat and wear like herself. Yao had no choice but to agree. Since then, Yao has never found fault with his daughter-in-law, and this family is harmonious and happy.
