Xu Deying, who was born in Putian city in Fujian, was the daughter of Xu Yanlong of the Jiajing period (1522-1567). According to historical records, while her two sisters are recorded as having been capable poets and authors, her husband Yu Mou did not value scholarship, even though he was from a family of officials. Xu authored many essays and poems, but later her son burned most of them.
