There are always people who accuse Madame Wang of being vicious with jin Jun'er, and today I saw someone mentioning Madame Wang's remarks in the comment section: "It turned out that she broke one of my things before, and I got angry for a while, hit her, and beat her down." This made me realize that Madame Wang was really kind to the extreme, and she covered up the truth, but in order to cover up Jin Jun's fault, she took the blame on herself.
Jin Jun'er's mistake was to provoke a contradiction between Baoyu and Jia Huan's brothers, and how to punish them could not be excessive.
Although Jia Fu has a family style of "being lenient and treating the next person", it is not soft when it comes to punishing the next person. For example, Xi Xue, who was implicated by Grandma Li, Liang'er, who stole jade, and Xiang'er, who stole the bracelet, were all thrown out. What is more serious is the nursing mother of Yingchun, because of the gambling, Jia Mu strictly ordered to beat "forty big boards, throw out, always not allowed to re-enter."
However, if you want to say that the fault is great, they are not as good as Jin Jun'er.
Jin Jun'er's fault was not that she and Baoyu laughed at each other, but that she said the last thing she should have said to Baoyu: "I would like to tell you Qiao Zong'er, you go to the east courtyard to take Brother Huan with Caiyun." ”
The book says that "Although Lady Wang is a kind and benevolent person, she has never beaten the servants, and now she suddenly sees Jin Jun'er doing such a shameless thing, which is the most hated person in her life", some people misunderstand this as Lady Wang's hatred of Jin Ju and Baoyu's ridicule, in fact, her "most hated person in her life" is to cause brother discord and provoke family conflicts.
You know, because of the existence of Aunt Zhao, an ignorant concubine, In order to maintain the harmony between Baoyu and Jia Huan, Lady Wang made too many efforts and sacrifices. The most prominent case is that Bao Yu was burned by Jia Huan and almost blinded her eyes, but she confessed to the people present to hide the matter.
Why hide? Because the old lady is too precious Baoyu, if you let her know that Jia Huan did it, Jia Huan will be severely punished. This kind of punishment will not make Jia Huan change, but will make Aunt Zhao and Jia Huan's mother and son more resentful, thus making the relationship between Baoyu and Jia Huan completely deteriorate.
In Confucian society, we pay attention to brothers and brothers, and treat younger brothers with kindness as brothers, so as to win the respect of younger brothers to older brothers. If the older brother does something that embarrasses the younger brother, don't blame the younger brother for having ill intentions towards the younger brother.
Jin Jun'er instigated Bao Yu to "go to the east courtyard to take Brother Huan with Caiyun", which was to put Jia Huan in an embarrassing situation, and the consequences were extremely terrible. So Madame Wang "got angry, hit her, scolded a few words", and threw Jin Jun'er out.
No wonder Madame Wang was angry, the things she was trying to maintain were almost destroyed by Jin Jun'er. If he didn't punish him severely, he didn't know what heinous disasters Jin Jun'er would cause in the future.
Madame Wang's words were to cover up for Jin Jun'er and to take the blame on herself.
If Jin Jun's mistakes are said, she will be pointed out by thousands of husbands, especially the ugly things of Jia Huan and Caiyun. If you look at it from a selfish point of view, Madame Wang can tell the truth. She stopped Jin Jun'er's provocations, Baoyu did not listen to Jin Jun'er's instigation, their mother and son were not wrong, the fault was Jia Huan and Caiyun and Jin Jun'er.
But can Madame Wang tell the truth? Of course not!
If you tell the truth, Jia Huan, Caiyun and Jin Jun'er are all difficult to be human.
However, this matter always needs a statement, otherwise why should Jin Jun'er go out?
The kind Madame Wang took the blame on herself: "It turned out that she broke one of my things a while ago, and I got angry for a moment, hit her, and beat her down." "The next person accidentally broke something, this is not much wrong, the generous master can teach a few sentences at most, and the harsh master is only corporal punishment or deduction of wages, which will not be serious enough to "beat her down." Madame Wang's remarks can only show that she is a master who is particularly harsh on her subordinates, and she refuses to let go of even this fault.
If this were to be passed on, it would damage the reputation of Madame Wang's master mother.
This is Madame Wang's kindness and consideration of the overall situation, preferring to sacrifice her own reputation, but also to preserve the reputations of Jia Huan, Caiyun and Jin Jun'er, so as to ensure the harmony and stability of the family.
Note that Madame Wang said this after Jin Jun'er threw herself into the well, which makes people think that Jin Jun'er's death was because Madame Wang was punished too much, and Jin Jun'er was forced to die by her.
Just think, which is more beneficial to Madame Wang, this statement or the explanation of the truth? Explaining the truth, jin Jun'er deserved it, and Madame Wang was properly handled as the head of the house. This statement is to take all the blame on himself, so that Jin Jun can have a clean reputation. This is not only good for Jin Jun'er, but also good for the Bai family. Otherwise, there is a daughter pointed out by a thousand husbands, and their family can't lift her head anymore, and maybe she will be retaliated against by Aunt Zhao Jia Huan's mother and son.
For a large family like Jia Province, the population is complex, and harmony and stability are the top priorities. Although Madame Wang was not smart enough, she spared no effort to maintain the stability of the entire backyard, and did not hesitate to sacrifice herself.
This is the quality that managers should have. In the face of the contradiction caused by the favor of Jia Mu on the top, and the contradiction caused by the up and down jump of Aunt Zhao, the Rong Guo Mansion can maintain stability for so many years, and Lady Wang is indispensable.
