"Dream of the Red Chamber" sixty-first time has a more lively plot, that is, "Siqi big fuss small kitchen", this is a "lively play", the average reader often only reads the surface of the "lively", and this "small hilarity" is hidden behind the "big hilarity" of "Baoyu Concealing Dirty", so it is impossible to read what is behind it, and let us calm down and carefully taste the taste behind this "small hilarity"——
Yingchun's big girl Siqi wants to eat egg soup, send the little girl Lotus to say, and ask for "stew tender", the kitchen manager of the small kitchen, Liu Sister-in-law, is not willing to do it, find a reason to deal with, say that eggs are not easy to get, Lotus calculates the old account, said that before eating tofu is also sloppy, turned over the eggs, Liu Sister-in-law and find reasons, in short, do not want to do. Lotus then revealed the old story, saying that Qingwen ate reeds, and Sister-in-law Liu knotted and rushed to send it to her. Lotus Went back to report to Siqi, who brought two little girls and smashed the kitchen, and Liu's sister-in-law quickly compensated and made eggs to send.
(Siqi big fuss small kitchen)
There are still things in the follow-up, Liu Wu'er was taken wrong, and the siqi operation allowed Qin Xianjia to take over Liu's sister-in-law's errands. However, after "Baoyu concealed dirt", Liu Sister-in-law and Liu Wu'er's grievances were calmed down, and Liu Sister-in-law returned to the kitchen to work as an errand boy.
In order to find a kitchen errand, the Qin Xian's family gave gifts to the Lin Zhixiao family (the housekeeper) and gave gifts to others:
SiQi and the others were empty-headed for a while. That Qin Xianjia easily waited for this loophole to come, and only xingxing for half a day. In the kitchen, he was receiving rice, grain, coal, and other items, and found out many deficits, saying: "Japonica rice is two stones shorter, and the commonly used rice has been spent for another month, and the charcoal also owes the amount." "On the one hand, he also made a little gift to send Lin Zhixiao's family, quietly prepared a basket of charcoal, five hundred pounds of firewood, a load of japonica rice, and sent his sons and nephews to the Lin family outside, and then made some gifts for the accounting room, and prepared a few vegetables and vegetables to invite several colleagues...
This description can sort out this information:
(Sister-in-law Liu)
1, the small kitchen kitchen lady is a fat difference (procurement has a difference, cooking has a surplus), in order to seek this errand, Qin Xian's family gives gifts everywhere, whether it is the general manager Lin Zhixiao's family, or the accounting room, and the corresponding colleagues, to give gifts; 2, the kitchen rice deficit, proving that Liu sister-in-law bears this difference, but also four times to give gifts; 3, SiQi also participated in the promotion of this errand, because Siqi is Qin Xian's niece (Siqi surname Qin, Qin Keqing is also surnamed Qin, all harmonic "love"), and later also wrote" Even SiQi was angry and fell backwards."
Let's take a closer look at --
(Siqi)
At the beginning and end of the Siqi big fuss in the small kitchen incident, it can be concluded that: 1, the lower layer of Jia Fu, there is also a class hierarchy ("Dream of the Red Chamber" explains this all the time), the status of the class is uneven, the status of the big guy is higher than the average pawn, and the little girl is lower than these general pawns; 2, people at each level are struggling for themselves, Liu Sister-in-law is making a difference for her daughter, and SiQi is also fighting for her own position; 3, the corruption of Jia Fu does not only exist in the upper levels, even if it is the lowest level of people, There is also a phenomenon of corruption, Jia Fu is rotten to the end, and it is not only Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, and Jia Rong who are rotten; 4, there is an obvious struggle between Jia Fu, Jia Fu, Jia Zheng, and jia zheng.
The first three items are easy to understand, mainly talking about the fourth item:
Sister-in-law Liu is on the side of Qingwen's forces, that is, on the side of Baoyu's forces, that is, on the side of Jia Zheng's forces, and she is still trying to operate to let her daughter Wu'er enter the Baoyu Courtyard to serve, so Qingwen wants to eat and drink, Liu Sister-in-law is tightly supplied, Siqi wants to eat eggs, she pushes three blocks and fours;
Qin Xianjia was on the side of the Siqi forces, that is, on the side of the Yingchun forces, that is, on the side of the Jia Shu forces, so the failure of her small kitchen substitute was not only her own chagrin, but even Siqi was not lightly angry.
(Jia Yingchun)
We can think about where siqi people's resentment comes from, of course, from Yingchun (in fact, Liu Sister-in-law's confidence comes from Qingwen, that is, from Baoyu, and her watching people have a previous cause for cooking dishes). The status of Yingchun and Tanchun is the same, they are all daughters, but when the Grand View Garden is assigned to the courtyard, Yingchun is not only inferior to Daiyu and Baochao, or even inferior to the same status of Tanchun, the position of "Embellished Jinlou" is far more than that of "Qiu Shuangzhai" (of course, the position of Xichun is worse), not to mention, Yingchun's age is greater than that of Tanchun.
Xue Baochao lived in The Wuyuan, Lin Daiyu lived in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Jia Yingchun lived in the Yujin Building, Tanchun lived in the Qiu Shuangzhai, Xi Chun lived in The Fengxuan, Li lived in Daoxiang Village, and Baoyu lived in yihong courtyard. (23 times)
(In the Grand View Garden, the location of Qiu Shuang Zhai and The Golden Pavilion)
Yingchun's daily resentment will inevitably affect the close-fitting chess, this is for sure.
What's more, Siqi and Qingwen have the same status and get different treatment in the small kitchen, in fact, it is the exchange of disputes between Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, which is the current situation of Rong Province, because in Rong Province, it is the boss Jia Amnesty, but the housekeeper is the second elder Jia Zheng; jia amnesty who occupies the title is justified, but can only live in the small courtyard in the southeast, and Jia Zheng, who has no title, lives in the main house and occupies the RongXi Hall, which of course has the reasons for Jia Mu and historical reasons (we said earlier why Rong Fu Jia Zheng is a housekeeper), but Jia Amnesty, The potential rivalry between Jia Zheng and Jia Zheng has always existed, because the disobedience of the management of Rong Province and the order of the elder and the young naturally exists.
(The difference between Jia Amnesty Yuan and Jia Zheng Yuan)
Is there anyone who can really recognize the current situation of Rong Province? Yes! It was Ping'er, so she advised Sister Feng:
According to me, even if you a hundred points of your heart in this room, after all, we will go to the house over there. (Sixty-one times)
Although Sister Feng was the housekeeper for Jia Zheng and Lady Wang, she was still Jia Lian's wife in the end, and naturally she was the one who was on Jia Yu's side in the end.
(Ping'er)
In fact, what can really recognize the situation of Jia Fu is Ping'er, who is cold-eyed but also knows the current situation of Jia Fu, she not only shuttles through the personal contacts of Jia Fu, but also knows the financial situation of Jia Fu, to some extent, Ping'er's sobriety is more than Feng Jie, because Feng Jie is slightly on top, she does not understand the life of the people at the bottom.
