In the first story, Ren’s action was wrong. Firstly, Ren will have to face death and his father will experience huge pain and grief for his poor son even if Ren told his sister to take good care of their father. Secondly, he may not face death penalty if he only kills Sheng Jin and Zhou De, but he kills 5 people. Even though, Sheng Jin’s parent and servant are involved in this case by helping them cover up the fact, they should not be dead. Overall, his action is reckless. In the second story, Du Shiniang’s action was wrong. Firstly, people should take care their body no matter what happens, and committing suicide is a wrong decision. Even if she is heartbroken, she should continue to live and make herself better to prove to Li Jia’s that his decision is wrong.

I felt the story tries to tell us to be serious in love and that people are easily hurt in a relationship. If you not ready for it, just stop there until you are ready. In the third story, the author used a diegetic commentary quote to describe Mo ji by saying “Full of hopes to climb high through marriage, He little expects to meet his wife again. Beaten, lectured, and shamed, Why does he bother to see new in-law?” (p.487). I feel that Mo Ji not really in love with Yunu and that their marriage is only to help him go to higher level in
