Eighty Red Theory: Mandarin Ducks

Mandarin duck is Jia's mother's eldest girl, so she has a high status among the girls in Jiafu, according to Shi Xiangyun's thirty-first ring to see that Mandarin Duck is one of the four major maids in Jiafu. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Mandarin Duck's father's surname is Jin, and he has been a slave in the Jia family for generations, and Sister Feng said in the forty-sixth chapter that her family "His father's name is Jin Cai, and the two of them are looking at houses in Nanjing, and they never go to Beijing." His brother Jin Wenxiang is now the comprador on the old lady's side. His sister-in-law is also the head of the old lady's pulp." The directories directly related to Mandarin Ducks include the 40th "Golden Mandarin Duck Three Xuan Tooth Plate Order", the 46th "Mandarin Duck Girl Swears to Never Encounter Mandarin Duck Couples" and the 71st "Mandarin Duck Girl Unintentionally Meets Mandarin Duck". Because the male and female birds are often together, they are also used as a metaphor for pairs of auspicious things. In ancient times, mandarin ducks were compared to husband and wife, which first came from the Tang Dynasty poet Lu Zhaolin's poem "Chang'an Ancient Meaning", which has a sentence "I am willing to be a mandarin duck and not envy the immortals", which praises the beautiful love. In other words, the mandarin duck is a symbol of harmony, and at the beginning of "Dream of Red Mansions", the mandarin duck does play such a role in such an environment, but with the development of the story, it shows a situation of disharmony and disharmony.

The appearance of the mandarin duck is related to Baoyu, here is a look at the appearance. Baoyu moved into the Grand View Garden in the twenty-third time, and in the twenty-fourth time, when he "found the attacker to find the room" and asked the sick Jia for peace, he met the mandarin duck "crooked on the bed to watch the attacker's needlework", which triggered a plot, and the attacker persuaded "The left persuasion will not change, and the right persuasion will not change, how are you?" If you do this again, this place will be stumped." Fat Yan Zhai's comment on "You are like this again" is "There is a deep meaning in these five words", and this deep meaning is reflected in the seventy-seventh episode of "Pretty Girl Hugging and Humbling Love"; As for "this place is stumped", just like Mrs. Wang's words, "It is not appropriate to move this year, for the time being, I will still move out next year, and my heart will be pure" to remove this Yihong Courtyard, Baoyu or go back to the study or return to the original residence, in short, the prosperity of the relatively independent small kingdom of Daguanyuan is no longer be. Baoyu's twenty-third encounter with Jin Chuan and the twenty-fourth encounter with Mandarin Duck are all related to rouge, but the twists and turns in the lives of these two daughters are not small. In Baoyu's eyes, "I saw the mandarin duck wearing a water red silk jacket, a green satin vest, a white crepe sweat scarf, his face was looking down at the needlework, and he was wearing a flower collar around his neck", and in the forty-sixth episode, Mrs. Xing's eyes were very specific "wearing a half-new silk jacket in lotus color, a green satin pinching vest, and a water green skirt underneath." Bee waist shaved back, duck egg face, black hair, high nose, a few freckles on both cheeks", the attacker said, "We shouldn't say this reason, this old man is too lustful, and if he has a slightly flat head and face, he won't let go", so the mandarin duck's appearance is also good. According to the thirty-ninth time, Grandma Liu's behavior before and after entering Rongguo Mansion to see Mandarin Ducks is an empathetic beauty, although Mandarin Ducks have teasing meaning to Grandma Liu, but the two have a tacit understanding in the result.

Due to the feudal hierarchy, patriarchy, and personal dependence system, the mandarin duck was ultimately lonely in the first eighty books. Mandarin Duck's personal intention is not to be an aunt, she and the children of the children said that "such as raiders, amber, Suyun, Zijuan, Caixia, Yu Chu'er, Musk Yue, Cuimo, Cui Wei who went with Miss Shi, Keren who died and Jin Chuan, and Qian Xue who went", these people are all fruitless. At that time, there were only Jia Yun and Xiaohong husband and wife with good results and prospects in the book, Jia Yun helped Jia Lian do things, Xiaohong helped Sister Feng do things, and the housekeeper Lin Zhixiao and his wife were in the middle, and Zhou Xuan's happiness in the future was expected. Then, the mandarin duck should understand and have his own expectations, but there is no description of the mandarin duck's future partner in the book, such as Ximu Jia Lian and Baoyu in the dialogue with Ping'er and the attacker, and the mandarin duck's tone of refusing to live behind the words can be guessed, but the appearance of Jia Yu blocked the mandarin duck's future path. The mandarin duck's words are "The old lady is here for a day, and I will not leave here for a day; If the old lady goes to the west, he still has three years of filial piety, and he will accept the little wife first if he dies! After three years, I will know what the situation will be, and then I will talk about it. In the midst of the urgency, I cut my hair and became my sister-in-law; Otherwise, there is still one death. What if you don't marry a man for the rest of your life? Happy to be clean", Jia Yuren Lao Chengjing said: "I tell you this, ask your woman to go to him, just say my words: 'Since ancient times, Chang'e loves young people', he must think I am old, about he is in love with young masters, most of them are in love with Baoyu, but I am afraid that there is also Jia Lian." If he has this heart, let him rest his heart early, I want him not to come, who will dare to accept it after that? This is one piece. The second thing, thinking that the old lady loves him, will naturally hire him as a husband and wife in the future. Let him think carefully, depending on whose family he marries, it will be difficult to get out of my palm. Unless he dies, or never marries a man for life, I will lay down on him! If not, tell him to change his mind as soon as possible, how good will it be"; Jia Yu made Ping'er, Raider and Jia Lian and Baoyu become "but nowhere to make a joke by accident", which can no longer be the way out in the future; Like the story of Ruo Jia Lian and many girls, it is true, as Jia Yu said: "Thinking that the old lady loves him, he will naturally be hired as a husband and wife in the future." Let him think carefully, and it will be difficult for him to get out of my hand according to whose family he marries"; The-for-tat confrontation between the two made the mandarin duck have no choice but to "swear to never be a mandarin duck puppet" in front of Jia's mother.

The disharmony in Mandarin Duck's life lies in not comforting Si Qi in time. From the book, it can be seen that Si Qi is a person and the later result has the meaning of evil and evil retribution, and the mandarin duck was unintentional to meet but did not expect that the turmoil would affect many people in the Grand View Garden. From "the mandarin duck girl unintentionally met the mandarin duck" to "the idiot girl mistakenly picked up the embroidered spring sac", and then to the "confusing and treacherous copying and inspecting the Grand View Garden" and finally "the pretty girl hugged the concubine", Jiafu carried out a major purge as a whole; If the mandarin duck comforts the two in time the next day, there will be no later right and wrong to make up for the mistake; There is no if the result is that the once prosperous Daguan Garden of Jiafu is facing closure, as Baochai said in the seventy-eighth chapter, "I also want to persuade my aunt to reduce some now, and it is not because of losing everyone's dignity." As far as I can see, this fee in the garden can be waived, and I can't say anything about the day. My aunt knows my family very well, could it be that we were also snubbed like this that day", Jiafu's adjustment was completed in the plot of the mandarin duck threading the needle. The ancients said that "success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He", Jiafu Ronghua relied on the operation of mandarin ducks in Jia's mother and Baoyu's life, and the depression and coldness of Jiafu also lie in the fact that mandarin ducks only think about wishful thinking.

Throughout the book, the mandarin duck is indeed a rare woman as a character who combines rigidity and softness, and the criticism of Fat Yanzhai "Mandarin duck is also a fantasy cave sky", "Yu is also a twelve-hairpin according to this" is not too much in the list of twelve hairpins.
