In "Dream of the Red Chamber", all New Year's festivals have rules and etiquette, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is no exception. The following by the editor to bring you this article, interested partners can continue to read down.
The Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as the Reunion Festival, began in the Tang Dynasty, flourished in the Song Dynasty, and has become a relatively influential traditional festival in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and since 2008, the Mid-Autumn Festival has been listed as a national statutory holiday. In fact, even if it is not listed as a statutory holiday, the Mid-Autumn Festival is still a traditional festival that Chinese value, and it is also a reunion day, and "Dream of the Red Chamber" is no exception.
There are at least three places in "Dream of the Red Chamber" where the Mid-Autumn Festival is written, one is when Jia Yucun was down before his death, and Zhen Shiyin talked about poetic life during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the other is to borrow You's mouth to point out the time when Qin Keqing was ill, that is, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, he suddenly fell ill. Another place, which is also a more important description in "Dream of the Red Chamber", is the last Mid-Autumn Festival in Jia Province.
When Jia Mu looked at it, the two Baochao sisters were not seated, knowing that his family had gone to the full moon, and Li Fengfeng and sisters were sick again, and without these four people, they felt colder. Jia Muyin smiled: "In previous years, your grandfathers were not at home, we all invited our aunts and wives to come to everyone to enjoy the moon, but it was very lively." Suddenly I thought of your grandfather, and I couldn't help but think that mother and son, husband and wife, and their children could not be together, and they were not happy. And this year your grandfather came, it is time for everyone to reunite and have fun, and it is inconvenient to invite them to laugh and laugh, and they have added two people this year, and it is difficult to stop them from running here. He was alone to talk and laugh, and he also had the space of ten people: it can be seen that things in the world are always difficult to complete!" After saying that, I sighed unconsciously and took a large cup to pour hot wine.
This is a description of Jia Mu at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the seventy-fifth episode of the Dream of the Red Chamber, and Jia Mu felt that this Mid-Autumn Festival was particularly sad because she lacked Wang Xifeng, a person who could be amused.
In fact, Wang Xifeng's absence is just a lead-in, no matter how big things happened before, there was Wang Xifeng around to amuse and explain, Jia Mu did not feel particularly sad. Although it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Reunion Festival, although the flesh and bones are reunited, the Zhen family, who are good friends with Jia Fu, has an accident, and it may also implicate the Jia family, and Jia Mu is worried about this Mid-Autumn Festival.
First, the Zhen family in Jiangnan was raided, and the Jia family may be implicated.
The Zhen family in Jiangnan is inextricably linked to jia fu. Before Jia Yuanchun returned to the province, Jia Fu wanted to build a grand view garden and go to Jiangnan to buy dramas, when Jia Lian let Jia Qiang take the silver two placed in the Zhen family in Jiangnan.
Later, after the festival, as well as Jia Mu's birthday, the Zhen family in Jiangnan sent congratulatory gifts, and they were all very valuable. When the news of the Zhen family in Jiangnan being raided reached Jia Mu's ears, Jia Mu did not dare to believe it, but did not want to believe that it was true, and was even more afraid that the Zhen family would be raided and would bring the Jia family with it.
Second, Wang Xifeng is seriously ill and hides a sad voice.
If Wang Xifeng can support it, there is no reason why she should not come to such a big party, and with her temperament and personality, Jia Mu can basically see her figure when she goes there.
In the seventy-second dream of the Red Chamber, the dialogue between Mandarin Duck and Ping'er can be seen that Wang Xifeng's condition at this moment has been serious, and it is precisely because of her serious illness that she has missed this important holiday banquet.
Wang Xifeng has always been a pistachio around Jia Mu, this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Wang Xifeng was absent, Jia Mu was originally some sad, coupled with Wang Xifeng's absence, so that Jia Mu's sadness was magnified.
This sad atmosphere of Jia Mu also affects everyone in Jia Province. In Wang Xifeng's absence, You Shi played the role of Wang Xifeng, she tried to make Jia Mu laugh, and as a result, You Shi's joke was not funny, and Jia Mu almost fell asleep. And if Wang Xifeng is around Jia Mu at this moment, even if Jia Mu is particularly sad, as long as Wang Xifeng says a word, she can amuse Jia Mu.
However, Wang Xifeng was partially ill, and the author arranged it this way, which already hid the tragic sound and the tragic ending of Jia Fu. And Wang Xifeng's absence is only a lead-in, and Jia Mu's sadness has already set a sad tone for this Mid-Autumn Festival.
