Abstract: Tales of Hulan River is Xiao Hong's masterpiece. The novel text permeates a distinct female consciousness, subverts the
male discourse authority, and publicly expresses the female subjectivity. This novel makes the female narrative stand out through the
setting of contrast. Female characters occupy a high proportion of narrative in the text, indicating Xiao Hong's concern for women.
Flexible changes in the intervals deepen the subject of critical patriarchy, and Xiao Hong uses personal narrative voice to keep male
discourse silent, reaffirming women's self-awareness through women's eyes and presenting male-to-female distortions from a male
perspective. Abnormal provincial narration enhances the femininity of narrative voice. The insertion of free indirect speech enhances
the authority of the narrator, and the female narrative authority is constructed in the text.

Key words: feminist narratology, Xiao Hong, Tales of Hulan River
