Xuemei 1939 When my family settled in Anqing to sing opera, Xue was a very popular Peking Opera Wudan. They fell in love at first sight and developed into a father relationship. Xue Zu was born in Zhejiang, and raised silkworms for generations. Because she is a posthumous child, her family told her that her life was hard. She was sent to the nursery shortly after her birth, and was later called back by her aunt to learn from her singing adoptive father.
