A Dream of Red Mansions comprehensively and profoundly reflects the characteristics of the ups and downs of feudal society. It does not describe the love story of "wedding candles and being the first"; It is about the love and marriage tragedy between young feudal nobles Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai.
The great social significance of the novel lies in that it does not describe this love tragedy in isolation, but focuses on this love and marriage tragedy, and writes about the rise and fall of four representative families at that time, including Jia Fu, which exposes all kinds of darkness and evil in the late feudal society and their insurmountable internal contradictions.
It strongly criticizes the decadent feudal ruling class and the feudal system that is about to collapse, making readers feel that it is bound to perish. At the same time, the novel also expresses a new hazy ideal by praising the noble rebels.
