abstract

Red peony, a singer, was deeply influenced by feudal ethics because he played old plays since childhood. When she grew up, she unfortunately married a rogue husband, Chen Faxiang, and she was always treated inhumanely. But she abides by three obedience and four virtues without complaint.

At the beginning, she was famous on the stage, and her monthly income was rich, but it was still not enough for her husband to squander. Later, due to excessive stimulation, he fell from the protagonist to a third-and fourth-rate supporting role. Until his life was down and out, he still compromised and let his husband abuse him. The family was in financial difficulties, and her husband forced the red peony to sell his daughter because he had no money to squander, so he lured her out and sold her to a prostitute.

What happened was known by the wealthy businessmen who secretly pursued the red peony. Because he sympathized with her, he invested in redeeming his daughter and returning to China. When her husband was upset about selling girls, he accidentally killed someone and was arrested and imprisoned. She still lets bygones be bygones and treats each other sincerely. On the eve of going to see a foreign performance, I made a special trip to visit the prison. Later, she found someone to rescue her husband from prison and finally made him repent and turn over a new leaf.
