Hsiang-ling was a spoiled young girl, but on her
wedding day, she gave a purse full of riches from
her mother to a less fortunate bride getting married
on the same day. Later, Hsiang-ling was separated
from her husband and son after a horrible storm. She
found work taking care of a spoiled young boy in a
wealthy home. The boy’s mother turned out to be
the poor bride Hsiang-ling had helped so long ago.
The mother was so grateful that she split her family’s
fortune with Hsiang-ling and helped her find her
husband and son.
