Synopsis of the story of "The Contest Under the Red Wall"
Su Wanning, a bride from an official family, married into the Shen Mansion. She originally wanted to abide by the etiquette and education in order to ensure the stability of the family. Mother-in-law Liu spent half her life in a deep house and was deeply shackled by old rules. She turned her own suffering into a yardstick for running the family and strictly controlled her daughter-in-law. Her husband, Shen Yanzhi, is a scholar, but he is ignorant, filial and cowardly, and always tries to be conciliatory when things go wrong, which only exacerbates conflicts. There are constant rumors and instigation in the house, and the gap between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is getting deeper and deeper in the trivial daily life.
A game about stewardship and dignity begins. Su Wanning lost her innocence and struggled to survive between human feelings and rules. The story is not black and white, good or evil, and describes the fateful pull between two generations of women in a deep house in the old days, as well as the joys and sorrows of human nature trapped under ethics.
Purpose: Analyze the ethical dilemma of families in the old era, and show the fate and spiritual awakening of women under the shackles of etiquette.
