Eighty Red Treatises: Jia Mu
Eighty Red Treatises: Jia Mu
Jia's mother is one of the central characters throughout "Dream of Red Mansions", in which she is the highest-ranking parent in Jiafu, so she is called "ancestor". Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info She witnessed the rise and fall of Jia Mansion and was a key figure in it.
In the poem "Red Cliff" by Du Mu in the Tang Dynasty: "The east wind is not with Zhou Lang, and the copper finch is deep in the spring and locks the two Qiao." "The east wind" became synonymous with the key factor. In "Dream of Red Mansions", because of Jia's mother's status in the house, "Dongfeng" has become her synonym in the metaphor. In the sixty-third episode of "Shou Yi Hong Qunfang Night Banquet", Daiyu drew a lot, "Don't complain about the east wind, be yourself", which is the role of Jia's mother. In the fifth episode of "Wandering Fantasy Refers to the Twelve Hairpins of the Mystery" to explore the spring and marry far away, there is "a thousand miles of east wind and a dream", which means that it should contain the words of entrustment. For Baochai there is a sense of expectation, in the seventieth time everyone filled in the "willow words", Baochai's "Linjiang Immortal" has "Baiyutang in front of the spring dance, the east wind rolls evenly" It can be seen that Jia's mother has no other meaning to look at Baochai, Baochai can only hope that "good wind frequently borrows strength, send me to Qingyun".
Saying that Jia's mother is the key factor in the book is also the main factor in the scene of the discourse in daily life, Jia's mother dominates the development of the plot in the occasions involved, and her power is because her status represents the image of Jiafu. Like the third time Daiyu entered Jia's mansion, Jia's mother became a cardinal figure in the advancement of the plot, and the central role in the development of the story in the future was also obvious. The first eighteen episodes mainly involve Jia Baoyu's education, reflecting the leading role of Jia's mother between the lines, and the seventeenth episode of "Daguanyuan Examination Question Matching" summarizes Baoyu's learning results, and finally Jia Zheng said: "You still don't go?" Isn't it enough to shop! I don't want to go shopping for half a day, the old lady will hang it. Come in, it hurts you in vain", it can be seen what Jia Zheng's attitude towards Jia's mother is "overprotective".
The nineteenth to thirty-sixth chapters of the book mainly revolve around the emotions of Baoyu and Daiyu, and Jia's mother favors Daiyu on the issue of whether to take Daiyu or Baochai. In the twentieth episode, Baoyu's words to Daiyu were explained from the perspective of blood and two little guesses, which is where Jia's mother agrees, and of course, Jia's mother's own temperament. Jia's mother said in the forty-seventh that she married into Jiafu in her early years, and since she was a "great-grandson and daughter-in-law", she has experienced "fifty-four years of even the head and the tail", and has experienced "great dangers and strange things", and this year, the elder naturally hopes that Baoyu and Daiyu will have a good growth environment and a good home in the future, this mentality undoubtedly contradicts the way the parents of the four major families have always behaved. Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue of the four families of Jia Shi and Xue represent the traditional family operation mode, but Jia's mother made a decision in the twenty-ninth round, vetoing the possibility of Xue Baochai marrying Baoyu, interrupting the internal operation of the four major families, which has a significant impact on the future.
The thirty-seventh to fifty-fourth chapters describe the prosperous side of Jiafu, and the prosperity of the prosperous era is extremely colorful in this part. In terms of tracing the footsteps of saints, the ancient literati entered the official career, not just the eight-share imperial examination, but also the regular gear in the history books. Therefore, in the ancient "Three Immortals", it is natural for literati to be able to "stand up" in writing books and sayings, and passing on poems and books to leave a name in history. Cao Xueqin undoubtedly revealed the essence of ancient culture in these eighteen episodes, in which Jia Mu revealed a level of development of ancient feudal society and civilization in addition to the "Two Banquets Grand View Garden".
The fifty-fifth to seventy-second chapters are descriptions of the beginning of the decline of Jiafu, and from the bottom up and from the bottom up, all the Jiafu are not at ease. In "Dream of Red Mansions", the red flowers and green leaves often complement each other, and due to Sister Feng's illness, Jia's mother's "role" in the book began to decrease. The seventy-third to eightieth chapters and even the lost parts begin to reveal the tragic fate of the characters in the book. In this atmosphere, Jia Mu has gradually lost control of the big ship of Jiafu like the seventy-sixth "hazy eyes, as if she is asleep" and is ignorant.
In ancient dynasties, the rise and fall of the show is obvious, such as the 2,000-year-old feudal society, the problem of land concentration is the embodiment of social contradictions, so can not deal with the concentration of social wealth, and can not give social contradictions the release of external space, then the feudal dynasty tends to decline at that time. Under the capitalist system, there is a lot of room for the flow of wealth, and if wealth is concentrated, it will often be passed on to the outside, so although the crisis in modern capitalist countries is constantly developing in the context of the simultaneous development of science and technology, the capitalist system under the trend of integration is still advancing. This situation is in the fifty-seventh episode of "Dream of Red Mansions" Xue Baochai and Xing Xiuyan talked about Tanchun to send Jasper Pei and said: "He saw that everyone has it, but you are not the only one, and he is afraid of people's jokes, so he will give you one." This is where he is clever and meticulous. But there is another sentence you must also know, these makeup came from the young lady of the rich and noble family, do you think I have these rich and idle makeup from head to toe? However, seven or eight years ago, I also came here in this way, and now it is not comparable to a while, so I have saved what I should have saved. In the future, when you arrive at our house, I am afraid that there will be a box of these useless things. We can't compare with them now, we must always follow the actual division, not compare to them. "From a certain point of view, Baochai is a businessman who knows that wealth hoarding is unintentional and flow is the norm. The decline in Jiafu is not a simple accumulation of wealth, but an increase in the number of people in Jiafu who are introspective like Baochai.
For Jia's mother, the colorful ink in "Dream of Red Mansions" is strong, because Jia's mother itself reflects that this book is the shining point of the encyclopedia of feudal society, and Jia's mother's life reflects the achievements of ancient Chinese civilization, the enjoyment of clothing, food, housing and transportation, and the exchange of speech and behavior.
