In a traditional Chinese family, interpersonal relationships can be quite intricate. A natural mother-son relationship is established when a mother gives birth to a son, but this relationship is absent in the experience of a stepmother. The traditional Chinese etiquette attempts to foster a connection between a stepmother and a son. The norms also expect the stepmother to act the role as the birth mother, and the stepson to be as obedient as he can be. However, this patriarchal ideal is challenged in real-world situations as the conflict between the system and people's emotions is specifically observed in the stepmother-son relationship. This study examines the case of Wan Wang and Cheng-Qing Wei to illustrate the stepmother-son relationship under the influence of etiquette and social norms of the Tang dynasty. |
