註釋
"An arranged marriage of a young woman, Precious Jade, is brokered to help solve the problems of a floundering family in rural southern China at the end of the 19th century. Precious Jade, a spirited girl, is determined to find a way to make life interesting and bearable in this highly structured society. Through her wits and recollection of advice and stories from a dearly loved grandmother, she is able to win over the members of her new family. Her final success lies in gaining the heart and support of her reluctant husband. And in the bargain she outsmarts a condescending trader and an arrogant magistrate"--P. [4] of cover.
