The answer is: A) the Chinese value that children should obey their parents.

In the passage from "Two Kinds," by Amy Tan, Jing-mei and her mother struggle between American freedom and Chinese obedience. The mother tells Jing-mei that only obedient daughters can live in her house. As a consequence, the mother's concept of an ideal daughter is that the latter submits to the authority of her parents, listens to her mother's viewpoints, and respects the elderly and their advice.
