A dream of red mansions was circulated in the form of a dream of red mansions manuscript in the early days. Only 80 manuscripts have been handed down to this day (according to some scholars' research, there are actually 79 manuscripts handed down, and the 80th manuscript that exists now is only the second half of 79 manuscripts, which was separated by later generations to form an integer of 80; Some scholars think that the two editions of 1979 and 1980 are sequels. Since the Qianlong period, various sequels about A Dream of Red Mansions have been released one after another. According to the statistics of relevant scholars, there are more than 100 sequels to A Dream of Red Mansions.
Nu Wa tried to make up the sky by refining stones, but one stone was not used. It was abandoned at the foot of Gengqingfeng, an absurd cliff in the barren mountain. This stone has spiritual power, big and small, and comes and goes freely. Because I was not selected to fill the sky, I often felt sad and blamed myself. Monks, monks and Taoist priests saw his cuteness and took him to "a prosperous country, a home of poetry and propriety, a land of flowers and willows, a country of wealth and tenderness." I don't know how long it took. When the empty Taoist passed by, he saw his experience carved on a stone, so he copied it from beginning to end and gave it to Cao Xueqin to read, add, delete and divide chapters. Here are the things carved on the stone. There is a gourd temple outside Nagato in Gusu. Zhen Yinshi, a town official, lives next to the temple. Poor Jia Yucun, a poor Confucian scholar living in a temple, became like-minded friends with him and gave him money to catch up on the exam. On the night of Lantern Festival, Zhen's daughter Zhen (homophonic) was abducted; Soon because of the Hulu Temple fire; The Zhen family was burned down again. Zhen brought his wife to the father-in-law who was looked down upon. His father-in-law is a stingy and greedy man, and he keeps what little money he has left for himself. Really "bitterness and pain" and "poverty and disease" are really cornered. One day, he was walking on crutches in the street when he suddenly saw a lame Taoist coming and mumbling something. Yin Shi listened, asked someone, knew it was a "good song", and then explained the answer to "good song". After being instructed by the Taoist priest, I was completely disillusioned and became a monk with the lame Taoist priest. [1] The county magistrate Zhong Jinshi was dismissed for being greedy for money, and later went to Lin Daiyu, the daughter of Lin, a salt policy tutor. Workers returning from Beijing. Jia Yucun asked Lin Ruhai to ask Yue's family for help: Lin Ruhai's mother-in-law, Jia Mu, wanted to take Daiyu to her side because she had lost her mother. Lin Ruhai asked Jia Yucun to send Daiyu to Beijing. Jia Yucun is connected with the Guo Rong family. With the help of Lin Ruhai's brother-in-law, Jia Zheng, he was appointed as Yingtianfu in Jinling. When Daiyu entered the mansion, in addition to Jia Mu, she also met her great aunt, that is, Mrs. Xing, the wife of Jia She, and her second aunt, that is, Mrs. Wang, the wife of Jia Zheng, the niece of Mrs. Wang, the wife of Jia Lian, the son of Jia She, and Jia Baoyu, who was born in Yingchun, Tanchun, Xichun and Baoyu. Baodai and Baodai had a feeling of deja vu at first, but Baoyu saw that his beautiful cousin Daiyu had no jade and thought that jade was ignorant of people, so he smashed his psychic Baoyu, causing an unhappiness. Jia Yucun was on trial in Yingtianfu, and Lian Win was kidnapped. The buyer is Xue Pan, the son of Aunt Xue, the sister of Mrs. Wang, and the home of Imperial Merchants. Although Xue Pan killed the original buyer for Lian Win, Jia Yucun decided the case at will and let Xue Pan go. Xue Pan and his mother and sister Xue Baochai also live in Guo Rongfu. Plum blossoms are in full bloom in Ningguo Mansion, and Jia Zhen's wife, You Shi, invited Jia Mu and others to enjoy the plum blossoms. Jia Baoyu took a nap, lived in Jia Zhen's daughter-in-law Qin Keqing's bedroom, fell asleep, watched the album Twelve Women in Jinling, listened to the song A Dream of Red Mansions, and had sex with the fairy. After waking up, wet dream was discovered by the maid, and they had an affair. Wang Gou, a descendant of Beijing officials, has been reduced to farming in the countryside. Because the ancestors once lived with Mrs. Wang and Xifeng's family, they asked their mother-in-law Granny Liu to go to the mansion to find Mrs. Wang for a windfall. Wang Xifeng accepted it and gave twenty taels of silver. Xue Baochai once received a monk's golden lock and has been wearing it ever since. Daiyu was jealous of the idea of a good marriage and often secretly laughed at Baochai and warned Baoyu. Jia Zhen's father, Jia Jing, abandoned his official position and left home to seek immortality. On his birthday, Jia Zhen held a banquet at home to celebrate. Because Lin Ruhai was ill, Jia Lian took Daiyu to Gusu, and his brother Jia Rui molested Xifeng, who teased him in every way and eventually died of missing him. After Qin Keqing died, Jia Zhen lived a luxurious life. Not only did he choose the best things, but he also spent two thousand dollars to donate a dragon to his son as a funeral set. On the way to the funeral, Feng coveted 3,200 pieces of silver, separated her lover, and made a young man and woman commit suicide in anger. After Lin Ruhai's death, Daiyu had to live in Fu Rong. A feeling of desolation hung over her, and she often secretly shed tears, and her illness became more and more serious. Yuan Chun, Jia Zheng's eldest daughter, was made a princess, and the emperor allowed the mothering. In order to welcome this grand ceremony, Guo Rongfu built an extremely luxurious Grand View Garden, and also purchased actresses, nuns, Taoist priests, and Miaoyu, who was born in a famous family and entered Guo Rongfu due to illness. On the night of Lantern Festival, Yuan Chun went back to her mother's house for a while and asked Baoyu and other sisters to present poems. Daiyu wanted to show off her talent, but she was ordered to write only one song. Chen Jiao, the xiren, said that he would leave Baoyu. Baoyu was deeply sorry and begged Allen not to go. Aaron took the opportunity to persuade Baoyu to study and "get down to business." Baoyu and Daiyu are young and affectionate. Because of Xue Baochai or other trivial matters. The two often quarrel, and their feelings get deeper and deeper in constant quarrels. Baochai sang opera on her birthday, and Xiao Dan looks like Daiyu. Shi Xiangyun, the granddaughter of Grandmother Jia's family, quickly said that Baoyu was afraid of Daiyu's anger and stopped her, which made both of them angry with Baoyu. Yuan Chun is worried that the Grand View Garden will be idle. So Baoyu and his sisters moved in. Baoyu went into the garden and hung out with these girls all day; The book was so full of gas that he stole books such as The West Chamber into the garden and Baoyu and Daiyu enjoyed them together. This is a classic era. To celebrate Xifeng's birthday, everyone has held a banquet since the time of Grandmother Jia. Xifeng drank too much and wanted to go home and rest. I ran into Jia Lian seducing the servant girl. Xi Xifeng cried and forced the maid to hang herself, while Jia Jia forced Jia Lian to make amends to Xi Xifeng. Guo Rong Mansion is full of contradictions. Jia Huan met rosacea at Baoyu's place and asked for some. Baoyu's maid Fang Guan gave Jia Huan some jasmine powder. Aunt Zhao went to Baoyu to make a scene. Fang Guan also gave her foster mother some rose dew, which led her nephew to steal poria cream. Several things made a mess, almost breaking the balance between servants. Baoyu was celebrating his birthday when Jia Jing Tundan died. You Jia was busy with the funeral, so she asked her mother, You Erjie and You Sanjie for help. Jia Lian sees the second sister is beautiful, wants to be a mistress, and lives outside. Second sister and Jia Zhen are not innocent, Jia Zhen wants to make waves, and Jia Lian wants to play with Third Sister for Jia Zhen's sake. You Sanjie was awed and cursed Jane and Lian, saying that she had a lover who hit Xue Pan. Jia Lian provided Liu with media materials, and Liu agreed. After arriving in Beijing, Liu Xian gave Third Sister's mother a dowry. Baoyu became suspicious while chatting with you. He went to ask for a gift to end his marriage. You Sanjie committed suicide and Liu became a monk. Xifeng knew that Jia Lian had stolen the marriage and pretended to be virtuous. Take second sister into the house. Please ask Jia Mu and others to agree. Jia Lian came back and gave him a concubine. Xifeng used my aunt's hand to force Second Sister You to swallow gold and commit suicide. The maid silly elder sister picked up a sachet embroidered with erotic palace pictures in the garden, and Mrs. Xing happened to bump into it and embarrass Mrs. Wang, who was in charge. Mrs. Wang was very angry. When Wang Shanbao's family urged him to check the Grand View Garden, Wang Xifeng was in command, and Xichun was timid. When he saw the socks of the man (actually his brother) found in Xichun's box, he shouted indiscriminately that he would be punished for taking part in the painting, but when Wang Xifeng said that he could take part in the painting without punishment, Xichun was not sure. Tanchun made a scene because Wang Shanbao's family stripped her clothes. She got angry and slapped Wang Shanbao's family. At this time, Xichun broke off contact with her brother and sister-in-law. Qingwen was driven out by Mrs. Wang and died with regret; Jia Baoyu was helpless and wrote Lotus as a sacrifice to her. After Xue Pan and her marriage, at Xia's instigation, Xue severely beat Xiangling, but Aunt Xue refused. Xia Jingui quarreled with her mother-in-law. Xue Pan can't be at home. Had to go out. (Later, due to the loss of the original, the content is unknown. In order to make it easier for some readers to understand a dream of red mansions, here are some related information for reference only) 1 According to the previous judgment, at present, the generally accepted outcome is: four big families fell, Daiyu died in tears, Yuan Chun died suddenly in the palace, Yingchun married Sun Shaozu by mistake and was tortured to death, Tanchun married far away, Xichun became a monk, Wang Xifeng died, and Qiaojie rescued Granny Liu to marry Banel. Xiangling died and xiren married Jiang Yuhan. 2. In the CCTV TV series A Dream of Red Mansions, the screenwriter and the Dream of Red Mansions consultant wrote the same ending, adding tragic endings such as Shi Xiangyun becoming a prostitute, Miao Yu going out to find a shell book, Baochai being a widow for Jia Baoyu, thinking strangely, Yuanyang and others committing suicide. There are so many people that it is not convenient to list them here. The writers and consultants of TV series are authoritative people, and this ending can be used for reference. According to the author, at the beginning of the 20th century, the question of "Who is the original author of A Dream of Red Mansions" once caused a debate in China academic circles, and this debate still exists today. But most scholars have won * * * A Dream of Red Mansions was written by Cao Xueqin, a great writer in China in the Qing Dynasty. His real name is Zhan (the same as "Zhan"), and his name is Qin Pu. He was born in rich Hebei (Tieling, Liaoning, Liaoyang, Liaoning) and was born around 65,438+. Cao Xueqin grew up in splendor. Its predecessor was the Han nationality, and later it was the Manchu Zhengbaiqi (domestic slave). Cao Xueqin's great-grandfather won an official position because of his meritorious service in entering the customs with the Qing army. Cao Xueqin's great-grandfather Cao Xi, his grandfather Cao Yin, and his parents Cao Qing and Cao Fu worked as Jiangning weavers for more than 60 years, which was highly prized by Emperor Kangxi. So the Cao family became a "century-old family" at that time. Kangxi made six expeditions to the south, four of which were led by Cao Yin, and Vega was his palace. The Zhen Shi family in the south of the Yangtze River mentioned in A Dream of Red Mansions "riding alone for four times" is this favor. In the early years of Yongzheng, due to the internal struggle of the feudal ruling class, the Cao family suffered many blows, was dismissed from office and imprisoned, and their family property was confiscated and returned to Beijing. Since then, his family has been going downhill. This turning point made Cao Xueqin deeply feel the coldness of the world and more clearly understand the essence of the feudal social system. From then on, he lived in poverty, but he was good at writing and devoted himself to the writing and revision of the novel A Dream of Red Mansions. He read it for ten years, added and deleted it five times, and wrote this literary masterpiece that pushed China's classical novel creation to the peak. A Dream of Red Mansions, with its rich content, tortuous plot, profound ideological understanding and exquisite artistic techniques, has become a great realistic work in China's classical novels. In the twenty-seventh year of Qianlong (1762), his youngest son died prematurely, and Cao Xueqin fell into excessive grief. On New Year's Eve of this year (1764 February 1), he died of poverty (about the year of Cao Xueqin's death, there were twenty-eight years of Qianlong (1763). On New Year's Eve, before the book was finished, Qin died in tears. I cried, tears stayed), and the burial expenses were funded by friends. Because it is still unclear, Cao Xueqin's Dream of Red Mansions only stays for the first eighty times. Some people say that Cao Xueqin also wrote the last twenty-eight, and the high temple (Qianlong) refused to give birth, so he ruined the last twenty-eight written by Cao Xueqin and asked Gao E to write it, locating the whole book one hundred and twenty times. The earliest extant manuscript is the reign of Qianlong Xu Jia (1754), but there are only 16 discontinuous manuscripts. Later, a number of manuscripts were discovered, the most important of which was the manuscript of Gan Long Chen Geng Year (1760), which is now 78 times. These manuscripts are all titled "The Story of the Stone", and there are many comments signed by people such as "Zhi Yanzhai", so they are also called "Zhi Pi Shu". Why fat books appear and spread is still controversial. Gao E: Preface to the movable-type printed version (Cheng Jiaben) of A Dream of Red Mansions by Cui Wen Bookstore in the fifty-sixth year of Qing Qianlong. According to Zhang Wentao's poem "Zhoushan Poetry and Fu, Presented to Gaolan Book in the same year", it says: "After the legendary Dream of Red Mansions is eighty times, Julan Book supplements it." Moreover, there is a saying that "the chivalrous man can be empty, and the lascivious man says" The Red Chamber ". It is generally believed that the last forty chapters of the novel A Dream of Red Mansions were continued by Gao E. On the one hand, Cheng Weiyuan and Gao E continued to co-write; on the other hand, according to the preface and introduction of Cheng Weiyuan, the book A Dream of Red Mansions, which was extracted from the study by Gan Long, was reportedly continued after 40 books were purchased one after another. It is believed that Cheng and Gao, the continuation writers, only did the restoration and sorting work. In the first text of A Dream of Red Mansions, the author is called "Stone", which is naturally said by the novelist. Then I mentioned that Cao Xueqin read this book for ten years, added and deleted it five times, compiled it into a catalogue and divided it into chapters. However, a large number of fat reviews in early manuscripts pointed out that Cao Xueqin was the author. For example, there was a comment in the JOE edition for the first time: "Yun Xueqin added or deleted after reading it. Who wrote this book after it was opened?" "It shows that the author's pen is very cunning." According to the textual research of some redologists, Zhifu has repeatedly said that many stories in A Dream of Red Mansions are based on the historical facts of the Cao family and can also be used as circumstantial evidence. As the author revealed in Zhi Pi is closely related to Cao Xueqin and his family, and he is familiar with and even partially involved in the creation of A Dream of Red Mansions, it can be said that Zhi Pi is the most direct evidence that Cao Xueqin is the author of A Dream of Red Mansions, but some factions believe that Zhi Pi is purely fabricated by later generations and cannot be used as textual research evidence. Fu Cha Yiming, a poet in the Qing Dynasty, said in the preface to tihongloumeng: "A Dream of Red Mansions written by Cao Zi Xueqin is a record of the prosperity of romantic scenery, which was built by Jiangning Weaving Room. Its so-called Grand View Garden is the former site of today's garden. I regret that his book has not been passed down, and little-known people in the world will see his manuscript. " Yong Zhong, another poet of the imperial clan in the Qing Dynasty, wrote a poem called A Dream of Red Mansions in the thirty-third year of Qianlong (1768), in which he wrote: "Looking at the novel A Dream of Red Mansions with Mo Xiang, there are three quatrains (surnamed Cao)". This is probably the earliest record that Cao Xueqin is the author of A Dream of Red Mansions besides A Dream of Red Mansions itself and Zhi Pi. Ming Yi and Yong Zhong are both Cao Xueqin's contemporaries. Although there is no evidence that they know Cao Xueqin, they have close contacts with Cao Xueqin's friends Duncheng and Dunmin, so their statements are considered highly reliable. But so far, in the works of Duncheng and Dunmin brothers, there is no record that Cao Xueqin is the author of A Dream of Red Mansions. But most people still think it was written by Cao Xueqin.
[Edit this paragraph] Back to the discussion.
It is generally believed that the first eighty chapters of A Dream of Red Mansions were written by Cao Xueqin, but this is not the case. According to textual research, A Dream of Red Mansions was not written by Cao Xueqin from the seventy-eighth time. There are several times about A Dream of Red Mansions, which is also a mystery. Some people agree with Gao E's theory of 120 chapters, while others think that the "last 30 chapters" mentioned by Zhi Yanzhai should be the 78th to 108th chapters. In other words, when Cao Xueqin was alive, A Dream of Red Mansions was published only 78 times, not 80 times. In fact, the first eighty chapters of A Dream of Red Mansions, published after 100 years and completed by Gao E, are not entirely Cao Xueqin's original works, but some scholars believe that they are Gao E's tampered works or supplemented by Zhi Yanzhai. The last forty chapters of A Dream of Red Mansions written by Gao E were not all written by Gao E. Everyone knows that Cao Xueqin's Dream of Red Mansions was lost in the second half of the manuscript, but I don't know why. It is possible that Gao E edited and rewritten the lost articles in the second half of A Dream of Red Mansions after collecting them, forming 120 chapters of A Dream of Red Mansions. 1 Back to Zhen Yinshi, dreaming, knowing, psychic, and pregnant, the second time Mrs. Jia died in Yangzhou City, Leng Zixing gave a speech in the mansion, the third time in Jinling City, Jia Yucun Mansion, the fourth time to recycle the unfortunate daughter of Lin Daiyu, the doctor's gourd monk, the judge's gourd case, and the fifth time to dream, to carry out a dream in a Dream of Red Mansions, to set new scenes and spread illusions. Granny Liu went to Guo Rong for 7 times to spend Zhou Rui in Tan Tan Qin Zhongjie Baoyu's eighth visit to Xue Baochai's minor illness, Jia Baoyu's drunkenness in pear fragrance court, announcing the ninth affair, friends entering the school, suspected urchins making trouble in the school, 10 back to the gold widow's greed for power and humiliation, Zhang Taiyi's theory of disease, the source of poverty,1kloc-0/back to the birthday party, Wang Xifeng's assistant Ning Di 14 returned to the donation museum, Jiabaoyu Road in Yangzhou, Wang Di 15 in Beijing, Tiejian Temple and Qinqu Mantou Temple 16 returned to Fengzao Palace, where Qin died.

On the 2nd1,Xian attacked people and praised Baoyu's clever and gentle words for saving Jia Lian. return
[Edit this paragraph] The relationship between people
How many characters did A Dream of Red Mansions write? During the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty, Jiang Qi counted 448 people. In the early years of the Republic of China, Lan Shanghang compiled Biographies of Characters in a Dream of Red Mansions, which included 72 1 person, each with different biographies. The book also included 23 ancient emperors mentioned in A Dream of Red Mansions, including the ancients 1 15, the empress 65438 and the woman 22. A total of 983 people received * * *. Xu Gongshi made a new statistic. The basic work is: in the course of reading over the years, firstly, taking Chen Geng's books as the base, taking notes on the names of people one by one, reading extensively, checking the genealogy of each family, and finally classifying the characters. Statistics show that: (1) Rong Ning government is male 16, female 1 1, and Rong Ning government is female 3 1. (2) There are 34 males and 8 females in the Jia family. (3) There are 52 males and 43 females in Jia Fu Yin Ya. (4) There are 73 maids, 25 maids 125, 67 footmen and 27 page attendants. (5) There are 9 men and 6 women in the royal family.

(9) There are only two female foreigners. (10) There are 19 girls and 6 boys in the fantasy sky. Total: 495 males and 480 females, a total of 975. Among them, there are 732 people with names and 243 people without names.
First, Jia Baoyu
Jia Baoyu, the hero, is a strange and vulgar figure. The main feature of his character is rebellion. His behavior is "distant and exaggerated" and he is a rebel in feudal society. He despises fame and fortune and is unwilling to take the official career of "learning to be excellent and becoming an official". He hates stereotyped writing, insults the "traitors" who study and are officials, and is too lazy to meet them. Jia Baoyu doesn't like so-called "serious books". He prefers "miscellaneous books" and loves The Peony Pavilion and The West Chamber. He also boldly questioned Zhu Cheng's Neo-Confucianism, thinking that "there are too many fabrications except the Four Books", which fully shows that he is the "rebellious son and two ministers" of the feudal monarchy. He believes that "the beauty of mountains, rivers, the sun and the moon is only for daughters, and men with beards are just scum." Under the guidance of this shocking thought, Baoyu "wandered around at home" all day long, cherishing girls, their beauty, purity, exuberance and intelligence, their unfortunate experiences, their marriage to smelly men and the loss of their holy beauty. Jia Baoyu said that women were pearls before marriage, but after marriage, they lost their light and became dead pearls. If she is old, she will walk with a dirty man and become a dead fish eye. He even felt irreparable regret for having a man. In his life, the most important thing is undoubtedly his love with Lin Daiyu. This love, on the one hand, began with rebellious character, on the other hand, it promoted the final formation of his rebellious character. This is the biggest and most important treason in his life history. In love, Bao and Dai both demanded the autonomy of marriage and deviated from the lifestyle of feudal society. They went further and further on the road of rebellion, which eventually led to their tragic ending.
Second, Lin Daiyu.
In A Dream of Red Mansions, Lin Daiyu may be a fairy, which is beyond my power. Lin Daiyu seems to be a kind of marriage, and she doesn't want to play tricks on fate so much. Its characteristics can be summarized as "sad beauty". "Sadness" is mainly manifested in Lin Daiyu's "bleak life experience, delicate and sickly", while "beauty" is manifested in "exterior, connotation and art". The combination of the two forms the tragic image of Lin Daiyu's "sad beauty". At first glance, the author did not directly describe her beauty, but skillfully used Xifeng's mouth and Baoyu's eyes to highlight Lin Daiyu's peerless beauty. Feng, who spoke frankly, was surprised when she saw Daiyu. "There are such beauties in the world! I saw it today! " In Baoyu's eyes, "two bends seem to frown, and a pair of eyes seem to cry but not cry, which makes him feel sad and charming." Tears a little, breath slightly. When it is quiet, it shines like a flower on the water, and when it is moving, it is like a weak willow. The heart is a little more than the stem, and the disease is not as good as the west. "What a daughter and a fairy sister! At this point, a living "beauty" of Daiyu has jumped from the page, which is Lin Daiyu's "external sadness". Inner sadness Lin Daiyu is sensitive and kind. On the one hand, her dependence on others makes her always cautious when dealing with people, forming a mentality of "fear of being looked down upon"; On the other hand, the narrow-mindedness of a girl with a heart and wisdom can add something "smart and lovely" to her, thus making the role of Lin Daiyu more vivid, vivid and touching. This is the genius of the author. In a large part of some literary works, the author often praises the positive characters too much, which makes the protagonist almost deified, leading to the characterization divorced from real life and becoming empty and boring. In terms of Daiyu's kindness, we can also see it from her words with Baochai. Although they were tired of love and had some friction on weekdays, she later treated Baochai "ten times better than others" and regarded Baochai as her thoughtfulness. Furthermore, we can also see her inner kindness from her teaching Xiangling's poems "teaching people tirelessly" and her behavior of burying flowers. Facts have proved that it is not that Baochai is always "kind to others", but that Daiyu is "sincere to others without reservation", which shows her kindness and frankness. This is a flying fairy, why is it so bleak? The god of Cao Weng's pen and ink is also here. On the one hand, it makes Daiyu "beautiful" to the extreme, on the other hand, it makes her "miserable" and die! As a result, a long-lasting tragic figure spanning countless time and space-"beautiful Lin Daiyu" became a "sculpture" and stood in front of her, making people feel sad and unforgettable for her.
Third, Jia Mu.
Jia Daishan's wife was a young lady in Jinling before her marriage. She began to be a great-grandson's daughter-in-law in Jia's family, and Jia had another great-grandson's daughter-in-law. With her shrewdness, she kept the position of the supreme ruler of the Jia family. She likes her granddaughter and dotes on her grandson Baoyu. We can see from the first 80 chapters that Jia supports Baochai's love, but the sequel says that Jia does not support Baoyu and Daiyu's love. Her thoughts are also influenced by Baoyu and Daiyu, and she has some avant-garde thoughts. In a word, Jia Mu can be respected by everyone, which shows that her position cannot be ignored and her ability is there. Can she maintain the long-term status of feudal society?
Fourth, Wang Xifeng
There is another unusual person in Fu Rong, and she is Wang Xifeng. Wang Xifeng's malice is well known. As the "general manager" of Fu Rong, she plays politics. She killed Jia Rui with a poisonous trick and plotted to force Second Sister You to death. She was mean by nature and finally killed the whole family. She has a fiery personality, and I never forget to point this out in my article. Just like on her birthday, it is enough to have a conflict with Bao's daughter-in-law and ask the old lady for help. But after all, she is very capable and smart. She has the final say in all the affairs of Rongfu, and she is good at catering to it, which won the favor of the old lady. Her fundamental purpose is to collect money. Aunt Zhao once said: "This half of the family property doesn't ask her to move to her parents' house. I'm not a human being."
Verb (abbreviation of verb) Xue Baochai
One of the twelve women in Jinling, the daughter of Aunt Xue. She is beautiful, her bones and muscles are smooth, and Xue Baochai's manners are refined. On the surface, she seems to be a model of an orthodox lady at that time, but in fact, she has a cynical personality factor and deep talent in her bones. She abides by women's morality, but she also has a strong critical spirit to the society at that time. For example, in the thirty-eighth chapter of A Dream of Red Mansions, she wrote Ode to a Crab, which made a sharp satire on Jia Yucun and other lawless officialdom figures. And her own favorite lyrics, in fact, is also a richest man with loneliness, anger and rebellion. Parasitic grass. Because of being misled by Cheng Gaoben, the understanding of Xue Baochai's thought and character in the red chamber has long deviated from reality. For example, the traditional view is that Xue Baochai is "smart, can win the hearts of the people and is praised by the Jia family." On the 40th trip, Grandmother Jia took Granny Liu to the Grand View Garden. The interior furnishings of Baochai Garden were simple, and Grandmother Jia was very dissatisfied, saying that she had lost face in front of her relatives. "。 To Baochai, Grandmother Jia said "Stop it", "Stop it", "Don't be too detached" and "Our old lady is going to live in the stable more and more". -All negative comments. Later, at the "Rongguo Mansion Lantern Festival", the grandmother ordered her beloved Baoqin, Xiangyun, Daiyu and Baoyu to accompany her to sit at the main table, only pushing Baochai out of the main table and sitting with Li Qi. Undoubtedly, these are all important signs that Baochai changed from "favored" to "out of favor" in front of Grandmother Jia. Zhi Yanzhai also commented on Chai and Dai's poems: "Now, I never bother to do this, but in Daiqing, it is not enough." Really sympathize with the weak, but "despise" the strong, which is the keynote of Baochai's behavior. As she said in "crab fu", "wine doesn't make enemies, chrysanthemum is still used, and ginger is needed for cold. "Later, Baoyu read Baochai's" Xie Fu "and couldn't help applauding Baochai's cynicism and shouting" Happy Writing "! Even so, Baochai has her talent to some extent. For example, when Lady Wang's maid, Kim Jong, died, Baochai said, "Aunt, don't be too attached to this. Just give her a few taels of silver. And because she overheard Zhui Er and Redjade at Didi Cuiting, she framed Daiyu. "。 Although she didn't make it clear, she knew Baochai was shrewd! For this kind of situation in the book, Cao Xueqin's former confidant and close friend, Zhi Yanzhai, is even more ignorant. He (she) has long pointed out that in the choice of these outlook on life and values, "Chai and Yu are closer than anyone else in appearance, and ... they are far away and close. As close as Baoyu, as far as Baoyu. " "Chai and Yu are far apart and close to COSCO. These are two important stocks, which cannot be taken lightly. "! Therefore, Baoyu and Daiyu seem to have the same interests, but in fact their ideological positions are diametrically opposite; Baoyu and Baochai seem to have different ideals and interests, but in fact their choices are the same! -all based on the extreme dislike of the society at that time!
Six, Tanchun
Jia Tanchun, the daughter of Jia Zheng and his aunt Zhao, is not as delicate and compassionate as Daiyu, clever and clever as Baochai, and lively and cheerful as Xiangyun, but she has some talents, extraordinary wisdom, profound knowledge and far-sighted vision, which is vividly displayed in the fifty-sixth chapter of "Exploring the spring to promote the benefits and eliminate the disadvantages, and Debaochai always benefits". Wang Xifeng was bedridden because of illness, so Tan Chun, Baochai, Li Wan and others presided over the housework. During this period, Tan Chun checked the family accounts and found that the money paid to each room overlapped with the money paid to the comprador, so she came up with a satisfactory solution. She consulted Baochai and others, and went to Lai everyone during the year to get inspiration from Lai everyone. Compared with her own situation, she finally put forward a good solution. Isn't it enough to see her ability and ability to handle affairs? Who blames Baochai for saying, "Well said! Although you are a daughter, you don't know these things. " Baochai said with a smile, "You've only been working for two days, and you're so greedy that you don't care about Zhu. Going out again to see such advantages and disadvantages, even Confucius is becoming more and more vain. " Hearing this, Tan Chun solemnly replied, "You are an ordinary person, but you haven't seen Ji Zishu. On that day, Ji Ziyun said:' People who make profits, people who are logistics, are not good at words, and recite the way of Confucius and Mencius ...' "Such brilliant words are said by an ordinary daughter, so you should have a political vision! Although he was born a concubine, he demanded his own master status everywhere. In order to gain equal status, she had to cut off the "natural umbilical cord" with her biological mother Aunt Zhao and connect an "artificial umbilical cord" with her first wife, Mrs. Wang. She denies her uncle, but she always calls Mrs. Wang's younger brother Wang Ziteng her uncle. In fact, Tanchun is very helpless. In this Jia house, I wish you ate me, and I ate you, and she had to do so.
Seven, Qingwen
Qingwen Qingwen is one of the most important maids around Jia Baoyu. She is not only honest and frank, but also very original. She was loved by countless people because she was not afraid of the unreasonable oppression of feudal rule and disdained to use some small means to achieve her goals, but these advantages eventually became the tools of detractors. Qingwen has three highlights in A Dream of Red Mansions. In short, Qingwen's most heroic time is to "copy the Grand View Garden". When I visited the Grand View Garden, only two women expressed strong dissatisfaction, one was Tanchun and the other was Qingwen. All the maids searched silently, but Qingwen grabbed her hair and broke in, throwing the box on the ground with one hand. How can you have such verve with that girl? Qingwen's resistance, of course, met with vicious revenge. Being driven out of the Grand View Garden by Mrs. Wang, she died of depression, leaving Baoyu with sincere feelings.
