Miss Jia Jiasan's way of living in A Dream of Red Mansions

DaDa / tr. by Phil Newell)

I wonder if you have watched "A Dream of Red Mansions", which was broadcast on October 1 last year. The TV series that paid tribute to the 87 edition of A Dream of Red Mansions, which was all performed by post-00 children, was really popular, and the editor went to chase the play at the first time. From the 87 classic version, to the 12 new version, and then to the 17 small play bone version, A Dream of Red Mansions is always an immortal topic. Just like the sentence "there are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people", everyone has different feelings about each character in A Dream of Red Mansions. As a loyal fan of Red Mansions, especially in different age groups, I feel different every time I read A Dream of Red Mansions. But the only constant is the exclusive appreciation of a person.

Whenever we mention "A Dream of Red Mansions", perhaps the first thing that comes to mind is "Sister Lin falling from the sky", Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai, Jia Baoyu who is born with jade, and Wang Xifeng who is so spicy. However, in A Dream of Red Mansions, what I admire most is not the beautiful Sister Lin or the clever Sister Bao, but Miss Jia Jiasan, who has both talent and personality.

First of all, let's talk about the four eldest ladies of Jia Fu, Old Yuan Chun, but the virtuous concubine of the dynasty was not easy to survive in the deep palace. Second, Yingchun, some weak, but also very stubborn, but also quite miserable (married a monster), third, Tanchun (I like this playful "exploration" word very much), talented, personality, the ending is also very good Old four, cherish Chun (a little sad to hear the name), very stubborn, finally became a monk, green lantern ancient Buddha often accompany. After hearing their ending, are you still curious? Just listen to me about the three girls who have a good ending.

It is written on Baidu that "Jia Tanchun, one of the 12 women of Jinling, the daughter of Jia Zheng and his maidservant concubine Aunt Zhao, the half-sister of Jia Baoyu, and the three girls commonly known as Jia Fu. Baoyu and Sanchun all grew up around Jia's mother and received an excellent education, just like her elder sister Yuanchun. Lin Daiyu moved to Mrs. Wang's residence after entering Jia's mansion, and lived in Daguan Garden after Yuanchun Province."

Yes, she is smart, resourceful, decisive, and has the nickname "Rose". Even Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng are afraid of her. She slapped Wang Shanbao's family when she copied the Grand View Garden (impressed by her boldness when reading a book, to put it bluntly, she did it for the sake of self-esteem) She is good at poetry and elegant in taste, and has initiated the establishment of the Haitang Poetry Society, which is a talented woman in the Grand View Garden (her name is "Jiaoxia guest"). She is kind-hearted, and when Lin Daiyu is dying, she and Li Daiyu stay by her side and take care of everything. She was concerned about national affairs and had practical talents. Under the orders of Mrs. Wang, she managed the family on behalf of Sister Feng, and suppressed Aunt Zhao in order to hold her wife's slaves. As a result, it was obvious that the family members of slaves should not have funeral expenses, but they were higher than those of Aunt Zhao, and presided over the reform of Daguan Garden. She was a statesman and reformer.

However, no matter how to say, her life experience is there, quite a lot of helplessness will not be less. Although Jia Tanchun received a good education, because he was born to slaves, and because Aunt Zhao gave birth to a son, he was not rewarded by his wife, so he denied his mother and her relatives without background, safeguarded his wife's interests and was recognized by his wife. Although Sister Feng temporarily held the scepter to launch the reform of the Grand View Garden during her sick leave, the power was limited and it was too late to recover the decline of Jia's mansion. When she copied and inspected the Grand View Garden, she published "the theory of a hundred-footed worm" with great grief (that is, in the slap, she said, "a hundred-footed worm dies without being stiff," but if you start messing up from the inside, it is simply killing yourself). Her fate and outcome was integrated into the important political main line of chaos in the sea and frontier, and her father Jia Zheng decided to marry the Zhou family in Hainan town, avoiding the plagiarism of the family. When the triumphant invaders returned to the sea, she was able to return to Beijing to visit her relatives. Although she married very far, from her personality and ability and the hints in Cao Xueqin's poems, we can easily see that Tanchun is the best married among the girls and has the best ending in the Twelve Women of Jinling. )

When I am alive, I very much admire Mr. Li Shutong's open-minded attitude of "joining the world with the heart of birth". I also appreciate the talented and temperamental girl of Tanchun. If you do not want to read the original book, then go to watch TV series, after all, the classic version and the bone version of this play are excellent! The children are super cute and awesome! )
