"Du Shiniang Sinks Her Jewel Box in Anger" (¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿), originally written by Feng Menglong (¿¿¿, 1574-1646, a Ming Dynasty writer, thinkers, and opera artist), is one of the most outstanding short stories in the history of ancient Chinese literature.

No matter how hard Du Shiniang would try, she couldn't escape the shackles of her tragic fate. Li Jiasheng turned his back on her faith, and eventually, coupled with Sun Fu's (¿¿) instigation, he sold Du Shiniang.
