Eighty Red Theory: Smoke

Mingyan is Jia Baoyu's scholar and servant, and he is also called Roasted Tea. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info his character appears in the ninth episode, in addition to him, "Baoyu also has three small guys: a hoe, a sweep, and an ink rain". In the twenty-fourth chapter of "A Dream of Red Mansions", Jia Baoyu's servants are also introduced: "I saw two little guys playing chess with roasting tea, hoeing medicine, and mixing mouths to win the "car", as well as leading springs, sweeping flowers, picking clouds, and accompanying cranes for four or five, and picking small finches on the eaves to play", among which tea smoke is "the first to use", that is, the most effective.

To see the names of the characters in the book, Cao Xueqin is an instant scene, and the events of the characters contain quite charm. The theme event of the ninth episode is "Naughty Boy Troubled School", the names of tea, hoeing, sweeping red, and ink rain are not auspicious, and the twenty-third episode Jia Baoyu moved into the Grand View Garden, and in the twenty-fourth episode, he roasted tea, hoeed medicine, led springs, swept flowers, picked clouds, and accompanied cranes. From tea smoke to roasted tea, there is an explanation in the Cheng book of "Dream of Red Mansions" and the later pass book in the twenty-four chapters: "I saw the smoke of the tea there to dig out the little birds." Jia Yun stomped his foot behind him and said, "The little monkey is naughty again!" Mingyan turned around and saw that it was Jia Yun, so he smiled and said, "Why bother the second master to bluff us like this." Because he smiled again and said: "I don't call it 'Ming Yan' anymore, our second master Bao thinks the word 'smoke' is not good, so he changed it to 'roasted tea'." The second master Ming'er only called me to bake tea'", which shows that Gao He saw the development of Cao Xueqin's characters in the vulgar and elegant book, so the pass book has been "baking tea" since then until one hundred and twenty times. And after the thirty-ninth chapter of the fat review book, "Ming Yan" was used again, and until the eighty times, what was the reason for the change of the name from roasted tea to Ming Yan? In fact, whether it is roasted tea or tea smoke, it is related to the ancients cooking water and making tea, throwing away the fun of "burning the qin and boiling the crane" to attract the fresh water of the small furnace, and the wisps of "tea smoke" on the bell bowl are lingering in the author's aftertaste of the past, and the season brings the warmth of late autumn and midwinter, so it has a different meaning to see "Cao Xueqin has been reading in the mourning red Xuan for ten years".

Jia Baoyu focused on Mingyan, and was assigned to Baoyu in the ninth round, venting his anger and making trouble with all the naughty boys, and the school was for the minions; In the nineteenth episode, Mingyan had a tryst with Swastika in the small study, Baoyu saw it without responsibility, and the anti-attack person can be regarded as a character; In the twenty-third time, he got a lot of legendary corners of ancient and modern novels to relieve Baoyu's boredom, which attracted Baoyu to read "evil books" and became fascinated, not because the characters were ignorant; In the thirty-ninth time, Mingyan was sent by Baoyu to go out of the city to find the statue of the daughter who had nothing in the story of Grandma Liu, and then in the forty-third time with Baoyu out of the city to sacrifice Jin Chuan in the Narcissus Nunnery, he was able to tell Baoyu's heart, and since then it has been shown that it is the "first to use" The benefits of it, there are fat Yanzhai comments in the book: "Suddenly insert the tea smoke into a partial rumor, and at a rough glance, it is a child's joke, and it is also very tasteless." Playing carefully has a deep meaning, try to think about Baoyu's person, shouldn't there be a very clever and well-behaved child? Mingyan's long greetings and Baoyu's brief jokes reflect Jin Chuan's status in Baoyu's heart and Mingyan's meticulousness to Baoyu. There are also many characters in the syllabus of other retrospectives, and there are still flashes of them in the eightieth chapter.

Ming Yan, Li Gui, and Hua Zifang were the vast number of working people in ancient times, and thus formed the foundation of endless social and civil power. In ancient times, due to the existence of a hierarchical system, there were cultural differences between the upper and lower classes of society, but there was no difference in wisdom. Therefore, characters like Cao Di and Hou Ying in ancient times were produced. Of course, the perspective of ordinary people at the bottom of society may be narrow from the perspective of private and others, because ordinary people are indeed born in plants, value plants, and rely on plants. The ancients said in terms of time that "summer insects do not say ice", and from space it is a leaf to a leaf, and the distinction between the finite world and the infinite pursuit is the boundary in the eyes. Ancient China believed in the Confucian state and the Taoist self-advancement, so the society as a whole was very high. The bottom of the society smoothly completes the creation of social wealth, the bottom of the society resists to form social adjustment and promotes social progress, and the social and cultural characteristics of governing the world in troubled times have always existed in the same inheritance. Life is like a song, everything in front of the stage, behind the scenes, and in the background exists in the past and becomes history.
