Many Hong Ying's novels showed the complex relationships among family members, which has an unique value. This paper attempts to study the relationship between family members and the narrative characteristic in Hong Ying novel from the perspective of family ethics and narrative science. It is divided into four chapters:In the first chapter, we analyzes the blood ethics narrative from the daughter and mother-daughter relationship. First we discuss the evolution of the relationship between father and daughter and father figure described by Hong Ying. Father-daughter relationship exhibited a complex state that alienation and Pursuit are interwoven. The unrelated daughter is particularly worth to noting. And the father image in her novels has also undergone a gradual process of idealization. Secondly we explore the mother-daughter relationship and the mother's image of diversity. Daughter relationship exhibited a process from the estrangement to the repentance. At the same time, the mother image also showed the characteristics of the original ecology and diversity.The second chapter has analyzed the narrative mode of the affair. One is dominated by female cheaters born for love, and the other is dominated by male cheaters Indulged in sexual desire. Then explore two attitudes that is tolerance and resistance corresponded to these two modes of the affair. Finally we discuss two endings including returning home and being away from home by female cheaters.In the third chapter, we analyzed the family ethics narrative of Hong Ying's novels from the focalization and the flashback. Internal focalization makes the expression of ethical standpoint more subjective and reality, and has enormous emotional tension because of its diversity. External focalization conveys the author's ethical attitude through the character's behavior and language indirectly. The ethical effect of flashback is to explain things antecedents, enrich characters and visualize ethical attitudes, enabling the emotional expression more hierarchical and shocking.The fourth chapter discussed her novels from cultural metaphors and the self-redemption, intended to dig the connotation of family ethics narrative profoundly through Hong Ying's fictions. On the one hand, the complex relationship between family members is a metaphor for the fusion and collision of various cultures. On the other hand, in the face of traditional and modern family ethics conflict, she has chosen to return to traditional ethics ultimately, in order to obtain self-salvation.
