Fun Kan Red Chamber 259: Mother funeral joy, attacking people alone to guard the empty house, loyalty and filial piety are not complete, Jia Mu preached the rules
At the Lantern Festival Jia Mu Night Feast, Jia Zhen and Jia Lian led the team to toast Jia Mu and other elders, which fully demonstrated the aristocratic etiquette of the Jia family for nearly a hundred years. The kind of observance of etiquette and rules that goes deep into the bone marrow is even more impressive through the slightly inferior children such as Jia Zhen and Jia Lian.
Cao Xueqin deliberately let the readers understand that the defeat of the Jia family was not in "education", but in the aristocratic and decadent way of life, "rich and obscene", which had too great an impact on the children. The influence of those around them on their children is far greater than that of their parents.
Gossiping less, Jia Zhen and Jia Lian finished toasting, and Jia Baoyu got up and left the table to go out. Jammu immediately asked, "Where are you going!" Outside the firecrackers are at stake, carefully hanging fire paper from the sky to burn. Bao Yu replied, "Don't go far, just go out and come." "Mother Jia ordered her mother-in-law to follow.
The great child, still in his own home, could not leave a single step. Someone has to follow. Don't say exercise children, that is, these people follow every day, in order to please the master, what "flattering" things can not be done? What bad idea didn't you have?
They follow the less masters, how can they not be affected from small to large. No matter how parents educate, how can they compare to the subtle influence of these people.
Therefore, the generation of the Jia family's children is not as good as a generation, not education, but a rich and luxurious life, which corrodes people's hearts and minds, and only causes bad consequences.
Here Jia Mu saw Musk Moon and Qiu Wen following Jia Baoyu, and only then did she remember that she had not seen the attacker.
(Fifty-fourth time) Jia Muyin said, "Why don't you see the attackers?" He is also a little older now, and he makes the little girl come out with a single branch. Madame Wang hurriedly got up and smiled back: "His mother was gone the day before yesterday, because of the hot filial piety, it is inconvenient to come forward." Jia Mu nodded and smiled, "But I can't talk about filial piety or filial piety with my master." If he's still with me, won't he be here? Because we are too wide, some people have made it an example not to look up these things. ”
Jia Mu is the mentality of the old grandmother, the handmaiden is the handmaiden, and the master cannot pay attention to what is the "hot filial piety" of his own family.
When Madame Wang saw that Jia Mu was not satisfied, she immediately stood up and smiled for the attackers. She and Jia Mu's attitude towards attacking people is very different.
When the attacker's mother was seriously ill, Hua Zifang came in and begged Madame Wang to let the attacker go home to fulfill his filial piety. If it weren't for Madame Wang's appreciation of the attackers, she would have agreed or not.
The attacker was sold by the Hua family for a "death contract", that is, the people of the Jia family, and had nothing to do with the mother's family. She was going to follow her master's rules.
Folk have rules, people who are hot and filial should avoid the liveliness, and the New Year's Festival home can not be full of joy.
The attacker's mother died, and he was guarding the Yihong Courtyard, which was logically correct. But Jia Mu believes that she is "something" as a handmaiden, and serving the master is the main thing. There is no reason why the master should also accommodate her "rules".
Jia Mu used "take big" to attack people, and the words outside the words were to criticize her pride and ignorance. Obviously, at this time, Jia Mu showed a psychologically dissatisfied attitude towards the attacker.
Sister Feng busied herself and smiled back: "Tonight he has no filial piety, and he must watch in that garden. Here a play is sung, and the people in the garden who do not steal to see. He was also attentive and took care of everything. Moreover, after this dispersal, the Bao brothers went back to sleep, and all colors were complete. If he comes again, and the people are careless and scatter, the covers are cold, the tea is not complete, and the colors are not cheap, so I told him not to use it, but to look at the house. Scattered and ready, we are not worried here, and we can give him all his gifts, wouldn't it be beneficial in three places? The old patriarch wanted to call him, and I told him to come. Jia Mu listened to this and said busily: "Your words are very, more thoughtful than I thought, don't call him." But only for a while, how I don't know. ”
Wang Xifeng saw Lady Wang's explanation that the attacker could not come because of filial piety, which made Jia Mu not satisfied. Hurry up and take responsibility. She arranged for the attack not to come.
First, let the attackers take care of the family properly, take care of Yihong Courtyard to avoid going out of the fire.
Second, Jia Baoyu can go back at night to complete the color and avoid the cold kiln.
The third is the grace that completes the "filial piety" ceremony of the attacker.
Wang Xifeng's explanation was much more sophisticated. First talk about the responsibility and obligation of the attacker, and finally give the attacker a full gift of "grace" by the way, which is also the master's temperament? Then hint at yourself thoughtfully, and make arrangements clearly. Don't be afraid of Jia Mu to pursue it again. It's so clever!
However, it is very intriguing to say here that Jia Mu's change in attitude towards attacking people.
The attacker was originally from Jia's mother's room, but at this time he was appreciated by Lady Wang, who passed from Jia's name to her name, and secretly promoted to an aunt-to-be, and Jia Mu must have known it earlier.
After the attacker's mother died, she returned and told Jia Mu. As a result, Jia Mu actually "forgot". She said, "I thought, he served me once since he was a child, and then served Yun'er once, and at the end he gave a demon king Baoyu, thanks to him for several years." He is not a native slave of our family, and he has not received any great grace from us. His mother was gone, and I thought I was going to give him a few silver or two to send, but I forgot. ”
Jia Mu forgot to attack people's mother's death, and also forgot to reward money, although it is old and forgetful, why not be dissatisfied with the attacker, do not care?
You listen to what Jia Mu said, "I have served me since I was a child", and it is said that there should be feelings. The raider is Jia Mu's handmaiden, and she has today's ability and status, all of which are the credit of Jia Mu.
"Served Yun Er again", Jia Mu remembered the old days, always thinking about the hardships of sending her to serve Shi Xiangyun.
"At the end, he gave a demon king Baoyu, thanks to him for several years", Jia Mu trusted the ability of the raider to take care of people, and sent her to take care of her baby grandson. Jia Baoyu's "demon head" is generally not easy to manage. The raider really the heart... These jammus remember.
The old lady said the merits of the attack one by one, which is to miss the old.
"He is not a native slave of our family, and he has not received any great grace from us." The raider is a handmaiden bought from outside, and it is very hard to serve the owner of the Jia family. Although the slaves of the Jia family who have children are also hard, they are not all handled by the master from food, clothing, housing, and transportation to life, old age, illness, death, marriage, funeral, and marriage. In comparison, the raiders really did not really receive any "grace".
Jia Mu finally said, gone, I thought I was going to give him a few silver to send, and I forgot. ”
Everything is remembered, but "grace" forgets. It's like a rich man who "remembers the bittersweetness" of the year and tells about the love of that year. I remember everything clearly, the only thing that does not mention that when I was a child, I was "beaten" by a small "beaten" father and mother. Fa Xiao thought that the rich man did not care about the previous suspicions and only thought of friendship to pay money for benefits, and as a result, the big rich man patted his ass and left... It's that feeling of "falling short" .
Obviously, Jia Mu's dissatisfaction with the attackers "wrote off" her benefits, and the more Jia Mu "counts the family treasures" corresponding to "a dime", the more she expresses her emotions and positions.
Jia Mu's dissatisfaction with the attackers is mainly several.
First, attacking people to make up their own minds and Jia Baoyu secretly testing yun and rain is also said to be an unwritten rule of the Jia family. The problem is that the attacker is Jia Mu's handmaiden, and in the name of the old lady, it is not in accordance with the rules to act with Jia Baoyu. And it is disrespectful to Jia Mu.
Second, the attacker was Jia Mu's handmaiden, and without Jia Mu's consent, she followed Madame Wang, which was again a self-made and typical betrayal.
Jia Mu's handmaiden has always been her initiative to give it to people. Raiders and Qingwen give Baoyu; Cui Wei gives Shi Xiangyun; Purple Crane gives Lin Daiyu.
Strictly speaking, the attacker is a "secondment", her hukou is different from Qingwen's, and she is still Under jiamu's name, she is still Jiamu's handmaiden.
In this case, the attacker took the initiative to follow Madame Wang and did not tell Jia Mu, how can it be done?
Third, attacking people to "betray" Jia Mu was a taboo for ancient slaves. Loyalty has always been a basic test of slavery.
The raiders exchanged "two surnames of domestic slaves" for promotion positions, were appreciated by Lady Wang as expectant aunts, and their treatment was promoted such as Aunt Zhao,000s, which were not told to Jia Mu.
Fourth, by secretly testing Yun Yu's love with Jia Baoyu, the raiders talked to Madame Wang to gain a chance to advance, and behind each piece was a hidden heart.
Jia Mu is a bystander Qing, who is even less optimistic about the attackers, and does not like the personality of "stuffy gourds have a number in their hearts".
Attacking people has a heart and an idea, and in the end he is not a truly generous person. Although outwardly loyal and good, when it comes to self-interest, it will desperately strive for and defend.
This kind of personality is no problem in small doors. In the Jia family, such a family destined to have a group of wives and concubines, it is a blessing in disguise!
Jia Mu took precautions, and it was reasonable not to like to attack people, she did not want Jia Baoyu to have a terrible crisis in the family in the future. On the contrary, I am more appreciative of Qingwen's flamboyant but "heartless". Everything is in the open, it is harmless!
In this overall view, Madame Wang is obviously inferior to Jia Mu.
To find out what happens next, look at the next breakdown!
