Zhou Rui's family sent palace flowers for Aunt Xue to wear for the Jia family, and when they came to Wang Xifeng's courtyard, they found that there was a little girl Feng'er sitting at the door, and shook her hand to signal her to go to another room. So Zhou Rui's family would understand, turned around and went to the "big sister's" room, and soon heard Jia Lian's laughter, and saw Ping'er come out of the room.
(The seventh time) was talking, only to hear a burst of laughter over there, but there was Jia Lian's voice. Then the door rang, and Ping'er came out with a large copper basin and asked Feng'er to scoop water in.
In the chapter "Sending Palace Flowers Jia Lian plays Xi Feng", the whole text does not see how Jia Lian "plays" Wang Xi feng, but from the ears of Zhou Rui's family, jia Lian's laughter is heard, and Ping'er comes out with a large copper basin and orders Feng Er to scoop water.
Li Yanzhai commented that this passage of wind and moon was described as the method of "Liuzang Parrot Language FangZhi", using Zhou Ruijia's eyes and ears to perceive the story, all in silence.
However, Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng have a good relationship as a young couple, and there is nothing to say about the same room during the day. Why does Ping'er have to wait in the room?
Regarding this matter, the first thing that comes to mind is Ping'er's identity as a "room girl".
At the beginning, Wang Xifeng married into the Rongguo Mansion, in addition to the accompanying room, there were four other people who accompanied the dowry, and Ping'er was only one of them. At the end of the four people, Ping'er said, "The dead marry the dead, only she is left."
Wang Xifeng was jealous of people, and after marriage, he sent jia Lian's original roommates and his dowry maids away. Worried about being talked about behind his back, he forced Ping'er to make Jia Lian a room maid.
Ping'er knew Wang Xifeng's disposition and was reluctant to get involved in their husband and wife. Even if Sister Feng insisted on doing so, she couldn't resist.
The concubines are also "concubines", but they are the lowest concubines. In ancient times, the division of concubines was very strict. Concubine, side room, side room, side room, side room, side room, accompanying room, concubine, concubine, through room, outer room, foreign woman.
Although there are outer chambers and foreign wives behind the "tongfang", they are not recognized by the family. The lady of the house is actually the lowest "concubine" in the family, and she should be called a girl.
This "girl" is different from the ordinary girl called a girl. Corresponding to the status of the concubine "aunt". Also called a girl, Ping'er girl is of course of higher status than the attacking girl.
However, "girl" is called from the perspective of the in-laws, and it is destined not to be as high as the mother's angle of calling "aunt". Therefore, the concubines are half masters and half slaves, and the concubines are still servants.
In the future, when You Erjie was married to the second room, Wang Xifeng went to pick her up, and Ping'er wanted to kowtow to the second sister, only because the second room side room was a good concubine, and she wanted to be called the second grandmother. Ping'er needs to kowtow to the master as a servant.
Since the concubine is a concubine, she has the right and obligation to serve the master's pillow. The so-called "through the room" means that the room where you live is connected to the master bedroom.
The bedroom layout of ancient buildings is generally the master room in the innermost part. The outside is separated by partitions into a bisha cabinet, and then the door, living room, and main entrance.
Ping'er's daily residence, most of which is in the bisha cabinet, is connected with the room of Jia Lian Wang Xifeng, which is actually two partitions of a large room, which is convenient for daily service, of course, including pillow mats.
However, Wang Xifeng was jealous and looked at Ping'er more strictly, and Jia Lian could not touch Ping'er with only his eyes.
But when Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng had sex, it was not like modern times when it was a husband and wife affair. In the houses of the ancient nobles, most of them had servants standing by and waiting.
It is also the reason why Ping'er was in the room when Jia Lian played Xi Feng.
So, is it that the only person who serves the master to have sex is the housemaid? Nor is it! If the owner does not have a roommate, he needs to be close to the maid.
In the feudal era, there were differences between masters and slaves, and slaves had no human rights at all. For things like the master's intercourse, they can only stay in the room waiting for summons and service, at most in the inner room and outside the door, in fact, it is still in the room.
Of course, in general, the probability of these servants slowly becoming tongfang servants is very high, just like Ping'er, or Ximen Qingyuan's handmaiden Sun Xue'e with Chen's concubine, it is also easy to become a concubine
However, the status of the concubine who was promoted by the concubine was undoubtedly the lowest among all the concubines, just like Sun Xue'e herself was not as powerful as Pang Chunmei, and anyone could bully her.
Born in the house, it is also destined to be so. Jia Zheng's concubine, Aunt Zhao, does not rule out that she is also a room maid, so that everyone can go up and step on it.
Ping'er was trapped in the room while the master was having sex, which is a tragic portrayal of the maid of that era. But if you can do it, you will have the hope of being a concubine. There are still a lot of ladies who flock to it. Once you become a concubine, you will turn around and decide. Comparing slaves is the difference between heaven and earth.
Therefore, although the status, work, responsibility, and obligations of the housemaids are inevitably embarrassing, they are also fragrant. After all, there are a few people who are as strictly guarded as Wang Xifeng was to Ping'er.
It can only be said that Ping'er's fate is mediocre.
