Baoyu:
The image of Jia Baoyu Jia Baoyu is the main central figure. As a descendant of the Rong-Guo mansion, he was born with extraordinary intelligence and wit, and he was the heir of Jia's great hope. But his thoughts and personality prompted him to betray his family. The formation of his rebellious character is not accidental. The novel fully describes the living environment that caused his character and his specific situation in all aspects, and profoundly reveals the subjective and objective reasons for his character growth. On the one hand, the aristocratic society centered on men is so hypocritical, ugly and decadent that he feels lifelong regret for being a man; On the other hand, the purity and beauty of the girls made him feel that he would only be satisfied with them. He was also sent to his home school to study the Four Books and Five Classics, but the content and atmosphere of his home school were so decadent, and the masters who took this educational route were so vulgar and disgusting. His feudal education was emotionally inappropriate. He seldom contacts with his father who is an official. He is as scared as a tiger and gives him a wide berth. His parents gave him to a group of wet nurses and maids when he was young. Those ladies who surrounded him and treated him with a pure heart were his first teachers. The profound purity and freedom of the maids infected him, and the misfortunes they suffered because of their social status also inspired him. In Jia Baoyu's intuitive life, they are in sharp contrast with the leading forces of the center, which are mainly secular men: wisdom and stupidity, innocence and decay, cleanliness and filth, innocence and hypocrisy, kindness and evil, beauty and ugliness. In such an environment, Jia Baoyu gradually formed a love-hate tendency of his thoughts and feelings.
The core of Jia Baoyu's personality is to treat others equally, respect individuality, and advocate that everyone can act freely according to his own will. In his mind, there are only true and false, good and evil, beautiful and ugly. He hates and despises secular men, and is close to and respects oppressed women. He said, "Daughters are made of water and men are made of mud. I feel refreshed when I see my daughter, and I feel turbid and smelly when I see a man. " In connection with this, he dislikes the family from which he came, and loves and is close to those who have similar personalities and smells and come from humble origins. This is essentially a denial of the aristocratic class from which he came. At the same time, he strongly resisted the traditional life path arranged for him by feudalism. For the sake of feudal ethics, except in the morning, he tried to avoid taking part in the fellowship and entertainment of literati. I am very disgusted with the highest ideals of feudal literati, such as fame and fortune marriage, and completely deny them. He just wants to live as he pleases, resigned to his fate, that is, to startle flowers in the daughter country of the Grand View Garden, sing quietly and live freely. "If I'm lucky this time, I'll die while you're all here. If you can cry my tears again, I will flow into a river, float my body, send it to a lonely place and disappear with the wind. I will never be born again. This is my death. " Limited by the times, Jia Baoyu could not find a way out of real life. He wants to get rid of the shackles of aristocratic society, but he can't help but cling to the aristocratic class. This makes his thought and character have tragic and serious contradictions. His ideal is undoubtedly a denial of feudal life, but it is hazy and has a strong sentimental and nihilistic color.
Jia Baoyu's pursuit of personality freedom is embodied in love and marriage. Feudal marriage depends on parents' orders and family interests. Jia Baoyu, on the other hand, devotes himself to sincere ideological friendship and has no scruples about family interests. He loves Lin Daiyu because Lin Daiyu's life experience, situation and inner character reflect all the objective and subjective characteristics of all the girls who moved him and made him dear in his living environment. His love with Lin Daiyu is based on thoughts and feelings and has profound social content. On the contrary, this contradiction between love and feudalism became the main supporting force and motive force for him to overcome his own shortcomings and weaknesses step by step and develop and improve his ideological character day by day. This kind of love with rebellious thoughts as the core is increasingly oppressed by feudal forces. According to Cao Xueqin's original arrangement, Lin Daiyu will die in tears, and Jia Baoyu will marry Xue Baochai after his death. Xue Baochai's personality and marriage life made him completely desperate, and he finally abandoned his home and ran away, returning to the slim nothingness.
Jia Baoyu's rebellious character was not fixed at the beginning, and his works focused on describing the development history of his character. He lived in a sinful and corrupt aristocratic environment, inevitably contaminated with the bad habits and decadent ideas of some aristocratic children, and these bad habits coexisted with the good tendencies in his character. However, with the stimulation and education given by the major events he saw and heard in his life, and with the mental setbacks and blows he suffered when he was involved in realistic contradictions, some decadent and bad things in his ideological character gradually decreased and eliminated, and his rebellious ideological character gradually became firm and mature.
His attitude, sympathy and love for the girls around him have always been the dominant aspect, but at first it also contained some decadent and evil elements. Qin Keqing's death, Qin Zhong's death, Lin Daiyu's wandering life experience and her inner bitterness as a noble sister made him realize the difference between respect and playing, purity and decay, beauty and sincerity, and sin and hypocrisy in the relationship between men and women. From then on, he gradually showed a serious attitude towards the relationship between men and women and a deep dislike for the society in which he lived. He used to think that all the girls' tears would be sent to him. He loves Lin Daiyu, but when he meets the gentle and lovely Xue Baochai and the elegant and free Shi Xiangyun, he is dazzled and deeply touched. Because of the uncertainty of feelings, Lin Daiyu constantly exerted influence on him with blood, tears and life, so that he gradually got rid of the entanglement and attraction of social forces and aristocratic bad habits from his painful experience, which made his character tend to be purified, his mind tend to be sober, and his thoughts and feelings tend to be stable and firm.
In addition, the maid's personality and experience also influenced him, making him realize that "love in life is different." He is generally gentle and docile to girls, but sometimes he exposes some violent styles in his early days, such as kicking snow, punching and kicking, and training Qingwen. Mother superior. Blow neon on the wall? What happened to the basket? Hey? After this series of events, he not only abandoned the act of beating and cursing the servant girl forever, but also greatly strengthened his rebellious thoughts and deepened his understanding. Since then, his sympathy and consideration for the oppressed and devastated girls have become more profound and thoughtful. And on the basis of deepening my understanding of women's social status and destiny, I further pay tribute to her. Is it a cangue that wishes neon to welcome Xin's death? Servant? Hey? Disdain? I made a clear choice, for example, for Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun, for Qingwen and Xiren and Sheyue, I feel close to each other. Based on this kind of ideological understanding, there was a plot of "congenial", and his love for Lin Daiyu matured and consolidated from then on until death do us part. Another suppression by feudal forces was the raid on the Grand View Garden initiated by Mrs. Wang: Qingwen and Siqi were forced to death, and Fangguan was driven away, and the Grand View Garden finally became a desolate place. This is mainly because the feudal forces want to destroy the relationship between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, sweep away all the factors that violate etiquette, and prevent Jia Baoyu from embarking on the feudal right path. However, after witnessing the tragedy of Qingwen and others and the disaster in the Grand View Garden, Jia Baoyu abandoned his delusion of feudal forces and rushed into the shield with his own blood. Rong's daughter is tantamount to a declaration of resistance to the end.
Jia Baoyu denied the feudal social order, but he did not reach the height of denying monarchical power and clan power, that is, feudal sovereignty. On the one hand, he developed his rebellious thoughts step by step, completely leaning towards the oppressed and supporting them; He insisted on his love with Lin Daiyu and urgently demanded the autonomy of marriage; In fact, all this was due to the privilege given to him by feudal forces, and he could not deny feudal rule. What he hates is exactly what he relies on; What he opposes is exactly what he relies on. He can't completely break away from feudal rule, nor can he give up his democratic ideological requirements. Therefore, his way out does not exist in reality, and he can only go to the illusory surreal world in the end.
Xue Baochai
Xue Baochai is an important figure in A Dream of Red Mansions. Her importance lies not only in the fact that she is one of the protagonists in the love tragedy of Bao, Dai and Chai, but also in the rich connotation and innovation of this artistic image.
There have always been different views on the image of Xue Baochai. Some respect Xue and restrain Lin, while others respect Lin and restrain Xue. The story of He Xu mentioned above is a typical example. Even today, there are still different views. Some people think that Daiyu is mean and narrow-minded, and loves to tease her young children, while Baochai is dignified and steady, gentle and generous. Some people think that Baochai is ruthless, hypocritical and treacherous, and she is a "female Cao Cao". Have diametrically opposite views on the same character. One reason is that different people have different views, but it also shows the complexity, richness and objectivity of this image. So, what do you think of this picture? First of all, we should abandon personal prejudice and love-hate relationship, and make a concrete analysis from the description of the works.
As soon as Xue Baochai appeared, the author described her beauty and personality incisively and vividly. She wears "not luxury, but elegance", and she is "square in character and beautiful in appearance"; "Few words, people call it a fool; Follow the time and be self-sufficient. " This summarizes her personality characteristics of abiding by feudal ethics and adapting to the environment and outlines the outline of a feudal lady.
A prominent feature of this character is that she faithfully believes in feudal ethics; Especially the slave morality imposed on women. She has repeatedly advised Jia Baoyu to take the road of "career economy" and "making a name for himself", and even aroused Jia Baoyu's great disgust, saying that what she said was "bullshit" and that "a good innocent woman also learned to seek fame and reputation and became a traitor and ghost"; She also preached to Daiyu and Xiangyun many times that "a woman without talent is virtue" and "chastity is always the main thing". All these are enough to show that among the aristocratic girls in the Grand View Garden, she was deeply poisoned by feudal orthodoxy and feudal morality. But they can't be equated with Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng, and they can all be regarded as feudal rulers. Although she belongs to the "master" camp, she not only has no ruling power, but also, as a girl in feudal society, she can't even master her own destiny; Everything was at the mercy of feudal parents. On the one hand, he is a "master" and lives a pampered life; On the other hand, under the oppression of feudal ethics, this is the particularity of Xue Baochai's social relations. Its special social status determines that its ideological character is essentially different from Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang and Feng. It is wrong to equate Xue Baochai with Jia Zheng, Mrs. Wang and others.
Another outstanding feature of Xue Baochai is that she is very sophisticated, that is, she is good at being a person and dealing with the world. In Jiafu, a big family with complicated factions and many contradictions, on the one hand, she adopted the philosophy of "keeping silent when something happens, shaking her head and not knowing" to protect herself; On the other hand, she is good at dealing with interpersonal relationships and maintains a cordial, natural and appropriate relationship with people in all aspects; As the fat comment said: "When people are indifferent, not far away, not close, disgusting people can't see the cold state at last, and will form various sounds;" The gratifying people have not seen intimate feelings and all kinds of voices. " In this seemingly impartial attitude towards life, she paid special attention to trying to figure out and cater to the wishes of the Jia rulers in order to win their favor, but she never showed indifference and contempt for Aunt Zhao and others, so she was praised by all kinds of people in the Jia family. Jia Mu praised her as "stable and peaceful"; Aunt Zhao, who never praises others, also calls herself "generous". Even the little girl is close to her.
There is hypocrisy and affectation in Xue Baochai's character. She likes to please and flatter people. Jia Mu is going to celebrate her birthday and ask her what she likes to listen to and eat. Knowing that old people like lively operas and sweet and rotten food, she answered according to Jia Mu's usual hobbies. She also flatters Jia's face. She said: "I have been here for so many years, so I should pay attention. It seems that Miss Feng is not as clever as the old lady. " As a result, Grandmother Jia praised her: "Speaking of sisters", "From the four girls in our family, they are not as good as Baoyu." After Jin Chuaner committed suicide by jumping into a well, Mrs. Wang felt uneasy. She comforted Mrs. Wang and said: Kim will not commit suicide; If it's suicide, it's just a fool It's not a pity to die. Just give me a few taels of silver. Mrs. Wang said that clothes for Lin Daiyu's birthday were not good for the dead. Xue Baochai was afraid of her taboo and automatically took out her new clothes for Mrs. Wang. This passage not only says that she courted Mrs. Wang, but also shows how heartless this feudal believer is. On the occasion of the "Shouyihong Night Banquet", she took off a toothpick for drinking, which was painted with peony and had an afternoon poem on it: "Being ruthless and moving". According to the standards of feudal society, Xue Baochai was called the crown of beauty, but she also said "heartless". "Ruthless" means that she is a believer and practitioner of feudal morality; "Also touching", but only her beauty. Maru said Leng Xiang, probably implying that she is not enthusiastic. But "ruthlessness" and indifference do not mean adultery. The butterflies flying in Shuige naturally show that she has a plan. But its purpose is to make Xiaohong and Zhui Er think that she didn't see this relationship and didn't mean to frame Lin Daiyu. Jin Xun did not consciously make Mrs. Wang dislike Lin Daiyu. In doing so, she completely followed the feudal philosophy of preserving our sanity and naturally showed her hypocrisy and selfishness. The hypocrisy of her thoughts and words is mainly the hypocrisy of feudal morality itself. Her mind is saturated with feudal thoughts, and she is a lady who faithfully believes in feudal morality and feudal ethics. She believes that it is the most moral thing to do according to feudal ethics; So she naturally achieved the "four virtues". Some people say that Xue Baochai is a "villain and thief", and fear of "Bo" refers to her loyalty and implementation of feudal morality; Because this morality itself is hypocritical. She won the trust of Jia Fu and was finally chosen as Baoyu's wife, which is mainly the natural result of her personality and environment, and should not be simply regarded as the victory of her or Aunt Xue's intrigue. The view that all Xue Baochai's activities are consciously and planned to serve Baoyu is not consistent with the description in the book, and it also narrows the ideological significance of this character. In fact, her character is not treacherous, and she is not always scheming everywhere, but she acts according to feudal orthodoxy, and she is so ignorant. That's like a duck to water. The hypocrisy that people see from her is the embodiment of feudal moral hypocrisy. Xue Baochai's scheming and Xi Feng's duplicity are completely different.
The image of Xue Baochai was created by the author, not just a traitor, a ghost and a delicate villain. It is not to create a hypocritical and treacherous "female Cao Cao"; Even more than shaping a standard feudal lady image; However, in the image of Xue Baochai, the author has entrusted complicated feelings and deep feelings: praising the intelligence of this beautiful girl and sympathizing with her unfortunate tragic fate; She also deplored her servile belief in feudal ethics and criticized her philosophy of "drifting with the flow". So what he wants to create is a girl with dignified character, beautiful appearance, outstanding talent and profound knowledge, but she is poisoned or even destroyed by feudal ethics. Because of this, the author's exploration of Xue Baochai's character did not stop there, but showed the seemingly contradictory but wonderful unity between the beautiful and healthy factors and the stale and suffocating components in her character in many ways with delicate brushstrokes. This is the fundamental feature of Xue Baochai's typical image. The more profound and full the author shows this fundamental feature, the more profoundly he exposes the poison and destruction of feudal ethics to the girl spirit, and the more sharply he criticizes the "cannibalism" essence of feudal ethics. In criticizing the profoundness of feudal society, this image is no different from Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, except that the destruction of the former is the tragedy of rebels and the destruction of the latter is the tragedy of martyrs. However, they are all victims of feudal ethics. Although Xue Baochai's tragedy is not worthy of sympathy, its critical significance is very profound. Cao Xueqin's outstanding understanding of a generation has been shown here, and the author's ingenuity in shaping the image of Xue Baochai has also been shown here. Only from this fundamental feature can we truly understand these two artistic images.
A Dream of Red Mansions has a prominent feature in depicting characters, that is, it grasps the basic characteristics of the characters repeatedly to make them stand out, and also describes and depicts them in other aspects around the basic characteristics of the characters, making the characters more complex and rich. The image of Xue Baochai is also shaped in this way.
As a typical feudal lady, Xue Baochai's personality is not only a believer, executor and martyr of feudal ethics, but also manifested in many other aspects.
Xue Baochai is not only square and beautiful in appearance, but also intelligent and knowledgeable in nature. Her childhood upbringing, family environment and intelligent mind have created her profound artistic accomplishment and extensive knowledge. She has extensive knowledge of literature, art, history, medicine, hundred schools of thought and Buddhism, even Jia Baoyu, who is famous for his "miscellaneous studies", is far behind. Such as Yuan Fei's instructions on changing "sapphire" to "green wax" in Baoyu's poems about returning to the province, and Xiang Yun's explanation on "tree". She has a profound understanding of artistic creation and has published incisive opinions. For example, when talking about painting, she pointed out that artists must have hills and valleys in their hearts before creating, so as to accurately cut and treat materials and achieve the purpose of truly reproducing life; In poetry creation, she proposed to "express her own opinions", "be different" and "be deadly novel and open up a new look". Her view of opposing imitation and following others' footsteps is undoubtedly quite insightful. Obviously, in these places, the author endowed this talented girl with her unique views on art.
Her own poetry creation is also quite distinctive. Among the poets in the Grand View Garden, only Lin Daiyu can compete with her. In many poetry competitions, she often wins the championship. Her poems are novel in conception, profound in artistic conception, elegant in style and profound in implication. In this way, the author endows the image of Xue Baochai with rich book spirit and beautiful poet temperament. In these places, the author appreciates her very much.
The complexity and richness of Xue Baochai's character are also reflected in some beautiful characters she has. For example, she is considerate, fair, caring, considerate and helpful. Once, xiren wanted to ask Xiangyun to do some needlework for her. When Baochai knew this, she immediately explained to her the difficulties of Shi Xiangyun's "not being in charge at home", "working in the middle of the night" and "being tired when she came", and accused her of being "inconsiderate for a while" and took the initiative to undertake the work that Shi Xiangyun wanted to do. On another occasion, Xiangyun wanted to open a cooperative as the host, and Baochai gave her a crab feast, because her expenses caused complaints from menstruation. Therefore, this outspoken and generous young lady once sincerely praised Baochai: "None of these sisters can compare with Sister Bao. Unfortunately, we don't have maternal love-I don't care if I have such a sister, even if I don't have parents. " We also gave various kinds of help to the benefactor Lin Daiyu and Xing Xiuyan, whose family was poor. Even the servants in the Grand View Garden, she can understand their hard work by getting up early and staying up late all year round and plan some extra benefits for them.
Xue Baochai's attitude and role in the love and marriage of Bao, Dai and Chai has always been an important content in analyzing Baochai's image. In the eyes of ordinary readers, Chai and Dai are rivals in love, and some even think that Baochai has tried her best to compete for the throne of "Bao Er Grandma"; It was she who "cheated Baoyu and killed Daiyu" and ascended the throne of Grandma Bao Er. She became the chief culprit of destroying Baodai's love and the executioner of Lin Daiyu.
We cannot draw such a conclusion from the description of the work; What we see is the truth of life and art.
At the beginning of their relationship; Their news is really quite tense; When Baodai was a childhood friend, suddenly came a "square personality and beautiful appearance" Xue Baochai, which was a threat to Lin Daiyu; Especially after the "good fortune" was said, Daiyu felt that Baochai was a powerful rival in love. Therefore, she took the opportunity to cast a hostile and sharp-edged irony on Baochai everywhere, and constantly watched Baoyu and Baochai warily. It has been written many times in the book that when Baochai was talking to Baoyu, Daiyu either came in in time or eavesdropped behind her back. For example, when "knowing the psychic" and "recognizing the golden lock"; When Baoyu looked at the incense string on Baochai's wrist; On another occasion, Grandmother Jia asked Baodai to have dinner, but Er Yu did not agree and left alone. Baochai's envoy advised Baoyu to accompany Daiyu to dinner; Baoyu said at that time: "Ignore him, it will be all right in a minute." Afterwards, Daiyu repeated this sentence many times in front of Baoyu and Baochai, showing that their conversation was eavesdropped behind Daiyu's back; There are many books about this situation. It can be said that the tension between Chai and Dai is not caused by Baochai and Daiyu fighting for Baoyu, but the result of Daiyu taking precautions to protect her love. On the contrary, Baochai took a wise evasive attitude towards the intimate relationship between Bao and Dai. There are many clear descriptions about this in the book. To say that Baochai is spying on Baochai and Daiyu everywhere for the throne of "Grandma Bao" is not in line with the actual situation described in the book, and it is also unfounded.
However, this does not mean that Baochai has no feelings for Baoyu, but that she loves and hates Baoyu. Sometimes it shows up. However, due to the severe bondage of feudal moral concepts, she didn't even have the courage to express her hurt feelings in a painful and tortuous way like Dai Yu. In her opinion, marriage depends entirely on parents' life. If the matchmaker shows any positive intention and action, it is immoral and shameful. Xue Pan said that if she fell in love with Baoyu, it would hurt her sense of shame. She was very angry and cried all night. In fact, Baochai often shows an outsider's detached attitude towards Bao and Dai. When Baochai hears someone playing a joke on them, she often adds a few words of ridicule; Sometimes I play jokes on them myself, but I don't show jealousy. This is Chai Dai's attitude towards love before reconciliation.
To some people's surprise, this pair of "friends in love" finally reconciled, and it was because Daiyu voluntarily admitted that "I was wrong in the past" that it led to reconciliation. Some people think that this is the victory of schemer Xue Baochai, and naive Lin Daiyu has been cheated. Is that really the case? Please look at the time when you blaspheme "autumn rain is boring, autumn rain is boring, and gold painting language". Baochai did conquer Daiyu, but not with intrigue, but with feudal ethics that she believed in. From this incident, Daiyu saw that Baochai did not use her "misconduct" as an excuse to make a fuss everywhere, but sincerely advised her, talked about her and enlightened her, thus eliminating "suspicion" and taking the initiative to make a gesture of reconciliation. Since then, she has passed chapters such as "Aunt Xue loves to comfort her". It further describes the development of their friendship. Their relationship is so close that even Baoyu feels strange and "secretly surprised". When writing about the establishment and development of their friendship, the author clearly ruled out the misunderstanding of Baochai's image, that is, the author's artistic conception. Baochai is not a clown who makes trouble, let alone the culprit who destroys Baochai's love. She and Daiyu are both victims of feudal ethics. In this way, the criticism points to the real culprit-the feudal rulers killed the love between Bao and Dai.
Finally, among Xue and others, the ruler of Jiafu chose Xue Baochai, so Daiyu "died in tears". So, can it be asserted that this is the victory of Xue Baochai's conspiracy and Lin Daiyu is the victim of it? The previous analysis has given a negative answer. In fact, Jia Mu and others chose Baochai because they like her "good character" and "stability and peace", which is by no means the result of her intrigue. If the marriage between Baoyu and Baochai is described as a "golden marriage" painstakingly managed by Baochai, it just denies the evil that feudal ethics and codes play in endangering the happiness and life of young people. The fact is, after marriage, Baoyu "pulled back from the cliff" and became a monk. The love between Baoyu, Baochai and Chai Hai is a tragedy in the end-the double tragedy of the rebels and followers of feudal ethics-although they have different meanings-but they are all tragedies, which can be described as "dry red tears" and "Wan Yan shares the same sorrow". This is the significance of the marriage tragedy in A Dream of Red Mansions and the depth of the evil feudal ethics it criticized. This tragedy; It is not only a tragedy of personality and love, but also a tragedy of society and the times. Like Bao and Dai, Xue Baochai's artistic image is a criticism of feudal ethics.
Shi Xiangyun
Shi Xiangyun is one of the characters created by Cao Xueqin in A Dream of Red Mansions. She ranks among the best among the "Twelve Women in Jinling" and occupies a very important position in the complex image system of A Dream of Red Mansions. Her image has played an important role in profoundly exposing social contradictions and widely expressing her works.
"Xiangyun Judgment" says: "What is wealth? Parents were disobedient when they were babies. In a blink of an eye, Xiangjiang died of Chu Yunfei. " The verdict summed up Xiang Yun's tragic experience of being born with wealth, being longer than suffering, losing his parents since childhood, and unfortunately living a miserable life in poverty. Because her life is full of changes, her personality also changes with the change of life situation.
Because she lived in the high wall and deep courtyard of feudal rule and was imprisoned in the feudal residence like the sea, the long-term standard feudal upbringing made Shi Xiangyun accept a set of stale traditional concepts. In the paragraph "Shi Xiangyun and Maid Cuilv Talk about Yin and Yang" written in the 31st time, Shi Xiangyun thinks that "heaven and earth are endowed with Yin and Yang, no matter good or evil, strange or strange, ever-changing, they are all obedient. How many lives come out, people are rare and strange, and the reason is still the same. " When Cui Lu put forward that "everything has yin and yang since ancient times", Shi Xiangyun called her "confused" and "fart", and then went on to elaborate his own point of view: "Everything has yin and yang, can there be another yin and yang?" The word yin and yang is just one word, when yang is exhausted, it becomes yin, and when yin is exhausted, it becomes yang; It is not the exhaustion of yin that gives birth to another yang, and the exhaustion of yang gives birth to another yin. "Shi Xiangyun's macro theory highlights the depth of her suffering from feudal idealism. Exposed the essence of its feudal class.
In this sense, Xiangyun and Baochai belong to the same ideological system. When she first appeared in Jiafu, she slept in the same bed with Lin Daiyu, but when she was invited to join the poetry club for 37 times, she was dragged to Wu Hengyuan by Xue Baochai. On the 2nd1,when she saw that Jia Baoyu wanted to eat rouge, she slapped the rouge and scolded him, "How long will it take to get rid of this problem?" From this point on, the feudal Taoist spirit of this noble girl began to appear. Then, in the tone of Xue Baochai, he persuaded Jia Baoyu to make friends with people like Jia Yucun and take the road of career economy. Xue Baochai's style of speech angered Baoyu, and immediately dismissed it as "bullshit" like Xue Baochai, embarrassing her and driving her to another room. It can be seen that in Shi Xiangyun's bones, it is still a deep-rooted feudal thought. However, Catkin Poems at the Last Poetry Meeting, with its unfortunate experience of being dependent on others, the decline of four big families and the turmoil in the Grand View Garden, clearly shows her reluctance to the feudal class's "spring gone" and her infinite attachment and sorrow for the complete fall of Heaven.
However, the biggest change in Xiang Yun's personality was in 1976. On a bright night of the Mid-Autumn Festival that year, Jia Mu led the whole family to hold a banquet in Daguan Garden to enjoy the moon. Although they played hard and had a good time, beating gongs and drums, singing poems and telling jokes, a cold and shabby atmosphere surrounded them tightly. Coupled with the whimpering and piercing flute from time to time, sensitive and sad Daiyu naturally felt sorry for her writing and leaned against the bar to cry. At midnight, the banquet broke up, leaving only Shi Xiangyun, who was in the same boat, to comfort Lin Daiyu. At some point, she couldn't help complaining to Baochai that she was haunted. "I hate sister Bao, and I've been saying that everyone should enjoy the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival this year. To join a club, I abandoned us today and went to enjoy the moon by myself. " After the great changes in Jiafu, she was snubbed by Baochai and realized that Xiangyun was finally isolated from feudal forces. Together with Daiyu, she sang a desperate lamentation of the aristocratic class before the collapse of "crossing the crane shadow in the cold pond and burying the flower soul in Leng Yue". In addition, in Shi Xiangyun, we can also see a series of following images such as "heroic and broad", "needing the scenery of the moon" and outstanding talents. As a successful artistic model, Shi Xiangyun's dialectical character thought plays a very important role in revealing the social contradictions expressed in his works.
Daiyu
Cao Xueqin shaped Lin Daiyu with deep love and compassion, history and future, reality and ideals, philosophy and poetry, full of blood and tears. She is a tragic image with poetic beauty and ideal color in A Dream of Red Mansions. For more than 200 years, I wonder how many people shed tears of sympathy for her tragic fate and were fascinated by her artistic charm. She is the holy and beautiful goddess of love in the eyes of readers of A Dream of Red Mansions.
In the grand view garden of the daughter country where flowers are blooming, there are charming and rich Xue Baochai, romantic and charming Shi Xiangyun, brilliant Jia Tanchun, and Xue Baoqin, who is as beautiful as her sister ... Why is Daiyu the only one who touches people's hearts, and even some people are crazy about her and die for her? Why does she have such strong artistic charm? Where is her beauty and moving? It should be said that there are many reasons, but the fundamental point is that Lin Daiyu has a tragic beauty. When people say A Dream of Red Mansions is a tragedy? I'm afraid it refers to the tragedy of Baodi's first love; Secondly, it refers to the * * * tragedy of the young girl "a thousand tears make Wan Yan feel the same way". Among them, the saddest thing is Daiyu's sadness. The real tragedy is always touching, because tragedy is to destroy beauty for people to see. The more beautiful and valuable life is destroyed, the more magnificent, profound and moving its tragedy is.
Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, once described the surprise brought by the grandeur of Mount Tai in Dongyue as "making people by nature and giving the charm of nature here". Nature concentrates its magic and beauty on Mount Tai. Jia Baoyu explained his theory that "women are pure and men are turbid": "The beauty of heaven and earth is only for daughters, and men need men.
