the story.
He’s the who commanded Kouan-Yu to make a bell that can be heard the entire
city of Chinese’s tradition ,was seen as sign of
beauty and preparation for marriage. When a girl was of marriageable age, the
mothers of marriageable age men would come to her home to check the size of her
feet. Kouan-Yu had a daughter named Ko-Ngai. She loved her father so much that
she refused a hundred of suitors. The part of the story when Ko-ngai saw her
father’s letter from Yung-Lo telling her father if he won’t succeed for the
third time,he will be killed. Ko-ngai risks her life just for her father’s
sake.

someone, you will care for his/her life even if yours isn’t safe anymore.
