"Dream of the Red Chamber" has created a large number of characters, some of which do not appear much, and the author can emerge his distinct personality with a few strokes. The words and deeds of individual small characters can also lay down a number of clues for the later text, the so-called "grass snake gray line, thousands of miles". In the first eighty times, there are still many characters with duplicate names, not because Cao Xueqin's writing skills are not enough, but the author wants to borrow these names to reflect the fate of the main characters.
Shi Xiangyun, the first of the twelve noble personalities. She is the niece and granddaughter of Jia's mother's family, her parents died since she was a child, she lived with her uncles and aunts, and she was often picked up by Jia's mother as a guest, and she and Jia Baoyu had been fighting with her ears since childhood. At the beginning of the thirty-second time, the attacker laughed and said, "Big girl, you were very happy to hear the former son." Xiang Yun was red-faced and ate tea without saying a word. The first eighty times it was not clear who Xiangyun married.
Yun'er, a prostitute in Jinxiangyuan, appeared in the twenty-eighth "Jiang Yuhan Love Gift To Qian Xiangluo Xue Baochao Shame Cage Red Musk String". Feng Ziying set up a family banquet and invited Baoyu, Xue Pan, Jiang Yuhan, and Yun'er. Bao Yu issued a liquor order to say his daughter's "sorrow, sorrow, joy, and happiness", plus a song and a poem. Inside these liquor orders, there are many clues to the ending.
For example, Jiang Yuhan's liquor order: "The daughter is sad, and the husband will not return." The daughter was worried and had no money to play osmanthus oil. Daughter hi, lantern flower and head knot double buds. Daughter music, husband singing woman with truth and harmony. The poem quoted by Jiang Yuhan is: "Flowers attack people and know the warmth of the day." It was pointed out that the attackers eventually married Jiang Yuhan when Baoyu left home and had no news.
Feng Ziying and Yun'er's liquor orders must also have hidden some of the contents after eighty times. Let's look at the original text: The next Feng Ziying said: The daughter is sad, and the husband is dying. The daughter was sad, and the wind blew down the dressing building. The daughter is happy, and the first child has twins. Daughter Le, privately digging crickets into the garden. [Jia Shu side comment: Ziying mouth should be so.] ]
After saying this, he took up the wine and sang: You are a lovely person, you are an amorous, you are a tricky and strange ghost spirit, you are a god and a spirit. You didn't believe what I said, so I only told you to inquire behind your back, only to know that I hurt you or not! After singing, he drank the door cup and said, "Chicken sound Mao Shop Moon." "When the order is finished, the cloud will be lowered."
Yun Er then said, "Daughter is miserable, who will she rely on for the rest of her life?" [Side Comment: The road is up. ]...... The daughter is worried, and the mother scolds when to take a break! ”...... The daughter is happy, and the lover is not willing to return to the family. Daughter Le, lived in the pipe to play with the strings. After saying this, he sang: Cardamom blossoms on the third of March, and a worm drills into it. Drilled for half a day and could not go in, climbed on the flowers to play on the swing. Meat careful liver, I don't open how do you drill? [Koji side batch: pun, wonderful!] After singing, he drank the door cup and said, "Peach of dreams." ”
In Feng Ziying's mouth, the husband's illness and twins should be reversed: husband and wife and beauty, after giving birth to twin sons, the husband and wife can not afford to be sick. Such a hint is exactly in line with Xiang Yun's sentence: "In the midst of infancy, parents sigh and die." Who knows how to live in that Qiluo Bush? Fortunately, he was born heroically and magnanimously, and never slightly cared about his children's private feelings. It was like a beautiful sight, ji moonlight and wind shining in the jade hall. He is talented and beautiful, and he has won a long time, and he is about to fold to the bumpy shape of his childhood. For a long time, the clouds scattered high Tang, and the water dried up the Xiang River. This is the number of long in the dust, why should we be sad! ”
The sentence "Daughter is happy, the first child has twins" in the wine order reminds me of the thirty-first retrospective of "Tearing the fan to make a thousand gold and a smile because of the unicorn fu white head double star". When Yuan Chun asked Jia Fu to go to the Qingxu Temple to fight, among the magic tools that Zhang Daoshi presented to Baoyu was a slightly larger golden qilin that Xiangyun had worn, and Baoyu kept it for Xiangyun to give to Xiangyun.
This Qilin was haunted in the book, and Baoyu carried it on his body every day, but he accidentally lost it and was picked up by Xiangyun. After Xiang Yun picked it up, Gengchen Ben's fat batch: Dozens of times Ruolan in the shooting garden of the Qilin is this Qilin also. The outline lies in this return, the so-called "grass snake gray line, thousands of miles away." This comment was interpreted by everyone as Xiangyun married Wei Ruolan after eighty times. And because Baoyu had briefly obtained the Qilin for a short time, it was speculated that Baoyu would eventually grow old with Xiangyun Baitou.
I don't think so. I speculate that Baoyu's end is to follow in the footsteps of his sweetheart and live for Dai Yu's tomb in a distant land. Jin Qilin was not originally an ornament of Baoyu, and was regained by Baoyu, so this plot would not indicate Baoyu's marriage to Xiangyun. The white-headed double star must have meant something else. According to the twenty-ninth time, when Jia Muqing was fighting, Bao Yu had just taken Jin Qilin into his arms, and Feng Ziying sent someone to give gifts to this small detail, speculating that Xiang Yun's "talented Xianlang" was Feng Ziying.
Xiangyun's Golden Qilin has always been on her, but the other Golden Qilin has been displaced, first the magic weapon of a certain Daoist friend, and then given to Baoyu by Zhang Daoshi, and after it was lost, it was picked up by Xiangyun and Yahuan Cui, which proved that Baoyu and Xiangyun had no connection. Then, along with the second half of the Red Chamber, he was also lost, and he could only learn according to the fat batch that the shooting garden had reached Wei Ruolan.com. Jin Qilin's several changes in master, and the duplicate names of Yun'er and Xiangyun, hid an experience of Xiangyun falling into the wind and dust after eighty times. Yun'er's wine order "Peach Of Death" is an auspicious word for the girl to get married, which is also the first time in the book that Feng Ziying and Xiangyun's marriage is hinted at.
Feng Ziying was both talented and had a good time with the mischievous xiangyun after marrying Qinser and Ming, and then gave birth to twin sons. Who knew that the good times were not long, Feng Ziying was critically ill and died, xiangyun suffered a change (the wind blew down the dressing building), and was separated from his family and became a prostitute. The liquor order of Yun'er in Jinxiangyuan reflects the scene of Xiangyun's life in the brothel. The huge gap makes Xiangyun miserable and abnormal, and the old duck's scolding is even more commonplace. Fortunately, when he met a nobleman, perhaps Wei Ruolan, he reached out to help. Xiang Yun, who escaped from the bitter sea, found the twin sons, who were as widowed as Baochao to the point of whiteheading. As hinted at in "Good Song", "Say what fat is thick, pink is fragrant, how to make two sideburns into frost?" (Jia Shu side batch: Bao Chao, Xiang Yun Yi Ganren.) ）”
Feng Ziying's quotation from the poem "Chicken Sound Maoyue Shop" describes the hardships of the road. The cause of the twenty-eighth party was that Xue Pan got Cheng Rixing's birthday gift for the twenty-sixth time, feasting on Baoyu and Feng Ziying, Feng Ziying explained to everyone that his face was injured due to going to the Iron Net Mountain to fight, pointing out that the trip was "a great misfortune and a great fortune", and also promised that "I will treat Yidong for this, please talk about it in detail; second, there is something to be pleaded about." ”
According to Feng Ziying's subtle clues and Xiangyun's famous sentence "Hantang Duhe Shadow", can we imagine the plot of the last eighty times: Feng Ziying's father and son conspired with people to do a big thing, because of the exposure, they were hunted down and killed by another political force, detained outside, facing the miserable moon, homesickness, lovesickness has nowhere to go; Xiangyun mother and son lost the protection of Feng Fu, displaced, Xiangyun even became a prostitute for a time, looking at the cold moon that once looked at the concave Jingxi Pavilion, recalled the years in the Grand View Garden, and did not know what kind of sighs would arise in their hearts. Yi Anjushi once wrote: "One kind of lovesickness, two places of idleness." There is nothing to be done about this. Only to lower his eyebrows, but to his heart. "It's just feng ziying and Shi Xiangyun's sorrow, definitely not idleness."
