Li Feng is a character in "Dream of the Red Chamber", she is Jia Baoyu's sister-in-law. After Li Yi married Jia Zhu, he gave birth to a son, Jia Lan. Unfortunately, Jia Zhu died early, and she became a widow at a young age. The character of Li Feng is not the main character in "Dream of the Red Chamber", but he often appears. In the end, how to evaluate such a role, there are probably three opinions.
Some people think that Li Feng is a perfect person. A perfect person is a perfect person. This is too high a rating, but you can find evidence in the book. Li Feng embodied the moral code of ancient women, young widows and widows, and obeyed women's morality. From top to bottom, no one dared to underestimate her. There is a detail in the book that Jia Mu feels that her orphans and widows are pitiful and takes the initiative to help take care of them. Jia Mu is the "old ancestor" of the Jia family, and the people she values do not dare to bully. Jia Mu felt that Li Feng couldn't fault this person, so she protected her. From this point of view, she is perfect.
From Li Feng's name, you can also see some clues, 纨, very fine silk fabrics, suggesting that Li Feng relies on textiles to pass the time in his daily life. Li Yi has a gentle personality and is kind to people, and there is no mention in "Dream of the Red Chamber" who she has a conflict with. If such a person is not a perfect person, it really can't be said.
Some people think that Li Feng is a hypocritical person. As the eldest sister-in-law, Li Feng often spent time with Baochao, Daiyu, Tanchun and others, reading books, organizing poetry clubs, and doing some needlework. When Wang Xifeng fell ill, she co-managed with Tanchun and Baochao. At this time, she retreated behind Tanchun and Baochao.
As the eldest sister-in-law, Li Feng's status is slightly higher than that of Wang Xifeng. She was supposed to "take the lead", but she hid. It's not cleverness, it's hypocrisy. She knew that the Jia family was not much, and she did not want to offend people, so she opened a self-protection mechanism. Usually, I talk and laugh with these sisters, and when I reach the critical moment, I want to be alone.
In fact, Li Feng was a poor person. From "Dream of the Red Chamber", it can be seen that every time a poetry club is formed, Li Feng will support it. She served as the president of the poetry club, and everyone was very convinced. This detail shows that Li Feng has ideals and pursuits, and she also wants to live a tasteful life and does not want to become a pool of stagnant water. She found the memories of her youth in the poetry club and found the source of happiness. Do not worry about eating and drinking, lack of spiritual comfort, in order to maintain their own image, do not dare to express resentment. She held it a little hard, she endured a little bit of heartache.
From the verdict, it can be inferred that Li Yi's later fate was very tragic. Even if Gao Hu continued to write "Dream of the Red Chamber", with the ending of "Lan Gui Qifang", Li Feng's fate may not be able to usher in a turnaround. The image of the perfect person is a protective shell of her, which she uses to deal with the rulers in Jia Province. The image of hypocrisy is another layer of her protective shell, which she uses to protect her rights and interests. Such a poor person will eventually live a miserable life.
