Attributed from the folk life terms, this paper regard it that "Nvshu" is a popular women's special folk culture. The paper is mainly completed on the basis of investigation at Jiangyong region and some scholars' interviews. In the post-modern narrative theory, feminist theory and performance, it brings us some cultural interpretation exhibited by some of folk things.Human activities is in the process of a certain of time and space. "Nvshu" has a special nature in the humanities space as a folk cultural activities. Millennium Confucian culture and the Yao ethnic minority-based culture mutually disseminated here. Because of detention of Confucian ethics to women's activities in traditional patriarchal society, "bitter feeling" has become the basic content of "Nvshu" writing. Closed "upstairs women" and the impact of Yao's lives and customs , formed a unique customs, "Laotong", among the women. Such sisterhood relations once formed, it will be solid and reliable. This small women group did not have the modern sense of political societies. Activities to the women are mainly "Nvshu", female song, female sew, as the basic contents of his girlfriend. In the Han Yao-based multi-ethnic mixed environment and the suppression of patriarchal society, many of the women's festival have been enriching their hearts and strengthening the tension of their lives. In Jiangyong, civil religion showed the phenomenon of "three forces into one", Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. The women were observing Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism at one time. They also have a remote goddess belief and "Huashan" temple gathering of women is a sacred space. In male society, the women accepted the Confucian School tradition thoughts which fettering them very much; but the women's lofty status of Yao in the family have been affecting the local women deeply. Therefore, their own destiny on the direction of the pursuit is positive.

Not forming the politics strength, self-awareness and awareness of this group of women is ambiguous, spontaneous, limited low-level forms.
