Thirteenth Aunt

Thirteenth Aunt, Chinese given name Siu-kwan (少筠; "Siu-kwan", incorrectly translated in some subtitles as "Peony"), is a character created by Hong Kong director Tsui Hark for his 1991 martial arts film ''Once Upon a Time in China''. Siu-kwan (Rosamund Kwan) is the Western-educated love interest of the protagonist, Chinese folk hero Wong Fei-hung.
Kwan reprised her role in four ''Once Upon a Time in China sequels'' films: Tsui's ''Once Upon a Time in China II'' (1992), ''Once Upon a Time in China III'' (1993), ''Once Upon a Time in China V'' (1994)〔Thirteenth Aunt did not appear in ''Once Upon a Time in China IV''.〕 and Sammo Hung's ''Once Upon a Time in China and America'' (1997). As a result of these films Siu-kwan became linked with the Wong Fei-hung legends, and was played by other actresses in later Wong Fei-hung media.
Wong Fei-hung respectfully calls Siu-kwan "Thirteenth Aunt", in accordance with Chinese traditions emphasizing generations and family status. In imperial China it was considered disrespectful to refer to Thirteenth Aunt as "Siu-kwan", despite her later insistence that Wong Fei-hung do so. Their romance is forbidden, since they are considered relatives; Siu-kwan's father is a blood brother of Wong's grandfather.
==Historical basis==
Wong Fei-hung (1847–1924) had four spouses: Lady Lo (羅氏) (m. 1871), Lady Ma (馬氏) (m. 1896), Lady Sam (岑氏) (m. 1902) and Mok Kwai-lan (m. 1915, nominally a concubine). His first three wives died during their marriage to him. It is unlikely that Thirteenth Aunt was based on any of those wives; Siu-kwan's Chinese surname was not given in the film series, to avoid any association.
