But the truth in the novel is that Xiren cried her eyes out when she heard that her mother and brother were going to redeem her. Qingwen and Baoyu quarreled and vowed "never to go out." Not only first-class girls, but also the dirtiest girl in Yuan, who is caught stealing bracelets, will be thrown out.
However, among these girls who "died in Yuan", there is another difference, that is.
Maybe some people don't remember who Chun Yan is.
Chun Yan, usually called "Xiaoyan" in A Dream of Red Mansions, is the girl in Jia Baoyu's room. In the sixty-third chapter of A Dream of Red Mansions, the maids in Hongyi's yard all chipped in for Jia Baoyu's birthday, and xiren, Qingwen, Sheyue and Qiuwen each gave five dollars. Fang Guan, Bi Hen, Chun Yan and Si Er are San Qian. This shows that Chun Yan should be regarded as a second-class girl in the hospital.
Among the four second-class girls, Bi Hen has a friendly relationship with Qiuwen, which can be regarded as a series of attacks. Fang Guanhe then raided the Grand View Garden, but was driven out by Mrs. Wang, which ended badly. There is only one Chun Yan left, but you can't see that this is obviously related to this series of attacks. On the contrary, he was closer to Fang Guan and Si Er, and often appeared together, but he was unaffected and survived when he attacked the Grand View Garden.
Exploring Chun Yan's family background is somewhat similar to Xiaohong's. She came in while building the garden and was assigned to Yi Justin. Although Xiaohong is a slave, she actually has a "prominent family background". Her father, Lin Zhixiao, is the housekeeper of Guo Rongfu and a powerful faction. (Qingwen and others crowd out Xiaohong, really without foresight). Similarly, Chun Yan can be assigned to share a pot with Yuan Tong, which should have some background. In the book, Chun Yan's mother, Lao He Ma, cried in front of Baoyu and said that she was a "widow and unemployed", which was very pitiful and probably a sign of weakness. From Chun Yan's mouth, we can know that her mother, menstruation and aunt all work in the Grand View Garden, and their relationship is intertwined. Moreover, in the reform of the Grand View Garden, they were assigned to all-in-one fields and became management. I also recognized Fang Guan and Ou Guan as goddaughters respectively (this is actually a high-welfare civil servant position with money and no job). There are indications that Chun Yan's family should at least be a mid-range slave, and the situation is much better than Qingwen's.
Chun Yan walked into YiHongYuan, YiHongYuan may be very similar to Xiaohong. When he arrived at Yihong Courtyard, Baoyu had not moved in yet. The garden was very leisurely, with little work and little chance to get in touch with any master. In other words, the parents of the two families didn't expect to rely on their daughters to climb the dragon and attach themselves to the phoenix, but only hoped to find a leisurely and high-welfare job for their daughters until they got married and had children. This concept of parents also determines the difference between Xiaohong and Chun Yan and most of the maids in the Red Chamber. All belong to a more sober category.
To tell the truth, there are many clever maids in A Dream of Red Mansions, but not many with clear heads. It's no wonder that when there is only one idol in the whole world, and the idol is so tender and affectionate, it's normal for girls' hearts to be pounding, but if the idolization catches up with themselves, such as Qingwen, Jinchuan and Fangguan, the consequences will be even more serious. In the Grand View Garden, it is obvious that idolization is not here, such as Siqi, Cai Yun, Xiaohong and Chun Yan. As for many little girls, they are not included. Siqi and Cai Yun were not in Baoyu's room, which is another matter. Xiaohong seems to want to attract Baoyu's attention. If she didn't do this, she immediately stopped pestering and adjusted her goal. She is very mobile and knows how to choose, which is admirable.
And Chun Yan is very interesting. Although she doesn't appear much, I can see that she should belong to the person who enters Baoyu's inner circle. It was she and Fang Guan who wanted Liu Wuer to enter the hospital, and they even fooled the attacker together. On Baoyu's birthday, he asked Chun Yan to "follow him alone" and inquired about Liu Wuer in detail, showing Baoyu's trust in her. Although this incident was a shot in the arm for Fang Guan, it was a "fuse" for Chun Yan. She knows the ins and outs like the back of her hand. For example, the crown is more secret and safer. Although she made great efforts in this matter, Chun Yan kept a low profile and never went to the Liu family as a "benefactor" like Fang Guan, so that few people knew that she was involved. Mrs. Wang drove Fang Guan out of the garden, and one of the charges was to instigate Baoyu to invite Liu Wuer into the garden. But at this time, Chun Yan did not spread, and she usually knows how to converge wisdom.
The greater cleverness is that although she is quite liked by Baoyu, she is drunk and can lie with her master, but she never regards Yee Hong Court as her home. Because CSI scolded Inger, Jia Baoyu asked Chun Yan to take his mother to Xue Baochai to apologize. There is such a description:
Two girls should come out, take a walk and chat. Chun Yan said to his mother, "I have always advised your old man not to believe me. Why make a fuss?" . "His mother smiled and said," Little hoof, let's go. As the saying goes, nothing gains wisdom. I know now. You should ask me again. " Chun Yan smiled and said, "Mom, if you stay in this room for a long time, you will have many benefits. Let me tell you something: Baoyu always said that in the future, all the people in this room, whether at home or outside, will belong to us, and they will go back to his wife to let them all come out and help my parents themselves. Can you just say this? When his mother heard this, she asked happily, "Is this true?" Chun Yan said, "Who can tell such a lie?" The woman listened, and then chanted.
This is a very warm plot. Influenced by Jia Baoyu's remarks that "girls are pearls and women are dead fish beads", most of the girls in A Dream of Red Mansions have forgotten that they were raised by their parents, and they will grow old. But Chun Yan and her mother were not, humiliated or spoiled. It's just a job, boss. Their parents and family are close relatives. I have also beaten and scolded, and my tone reveals my affection. And both of them are looking forward to "venting and helping themselves with my parents one day." This is their greatest happiness. Csi: Ma is happy to read Buddha. When xiren heard that her brother and sister-in-law were going to atone for themselves, she cried until her eyes were red and swollen. Qingwen said that she would never leave this door again. As soon as Fang Guan came out of Hongyi Courtyard, she cut her hair and became an aunt. This is a different world.
What is the result of Chun Yan's "going out"? I shouldn't be a concubine like Cai Yun. Although the old hippo is called "groggy", she is not a bad person. There is nothing wrong with being diligent in protecting flowers and trees and making girls feel uneasy. Actually, she loves her daughter very much. Even if she is stingy, she is not the person who will "sell her daughter". In Chun Yan's mind, he shouldn't play chess in private. She and Yan Ming are very likely to be a couple.
When Jia Tanchun led the restructuring of Grand View Garden, he allocated industries. It was mentioned that the strict mother, Master Ma, was in charge of the income of flowers and trees in the hospital. Later, Chun Yan also mentioned that her menstruation was in charge of this matter, which may be the same person. The names of Lao and Lao He (He Ma) are also involved. If the hypothesis holds, then the two should be aunts and cousins. At that time, they were the first choice of relatives. Yan Ming is also a popular figure in the novel. He is Xiaohong's dry brother, but Xiaohong and Jia Yun are no longer possible. The old horse also became friends with Yinger's mother (perhaps this was also facilitated by Baochai), but Baochai became Baoer's grandmother, and Yinger might end up as a maid with Pinger.
Chun Yan has no intention of being the master's concubine, and her family status does not allow her to go outside and find someone to marry. Therefore, Yan Ming, who has the same identity and mutual understanding, is the best candidate. And strict intelligence and Chun Yan's sedate and low-key, just complement each other in character. If it succeeds, it will be a good marriage.
Attachment: the friendship between the old man's mother and Yingying Niang.
At the scene of the reform of the Grand View Garden, Xue Baochai inadvertently revealed a message. Laomaye, the most capable and strict mother of Jia Baoyu, has an unusual relationship with Yinger, a big girl around him. This news seems little known before, but it is also very strange. For generations, it is normal for the Jia family to have a complicated relationship with slaves. But Yinger's mother came to Jiafu with Baochai. Why is it so good? Of course, affinity is something that no one can tell, but because children's "positions" are sensitive, it is inevitable that people will be suspicious. Earlier, according to Baochai's sentence "Jinchuan often wears my old clothes", I speculated that Xue Baochai might often get the news of Mrs. Wang's room from Jinchuan, which is straightforward and brainless, through some small favors. In Baoyu's room, Baochai deliberately pleased xiren, which is well known. But xiren is a girl after all and can't go out with her. She is strict, a confidant, and can go out with her to learn about the situation outside Baoyu's house. Baochai herself and the girls around her are not suitable for direct communication, so she adopts a more circuitous way-their mother. This is of course only a speculation, but it is not necessarily untrue. A Dream of Red Mansions looks like a chicken feather at first glance, but after careful exploration, there are articles everywhere. Sister Bao, it is really amazing!
