Abstract
Chinese filial culture is based on ancient family education and oriented towards the society.Fostering the filial consciousness of children is not only for parents but also for social harmony.The Peony Pavilion and A Dream of Red Mansions share not only the bold preaching of the love between the men and women but also the reservation of the filial consciousness.This is the succession of the filial culture of the ancient China and shows a common understanding of the two great writer Tang Xianzu and Cao Xueqin.They broke through the most of the Ming and Qing official culture but reserved some,which is not the same as the 20th overall discard of the traditional culture
