People who have read the Water Margin legend know that there is a pair of adulterers and adulterers who have been spurned by many people, that is, Ximen Qing and Pan Jinlian, especially Pan Jinlian, she cheated on her, and also killed her husband Wu Dalang, but there are also some views that Wu Dalang was poisoned to death by herself, what is the matter?
All along, Pan Jinlian and Ximen Qing, the "adulterers and adulterers" in the novel, have been spurned by the world, especially Pan Jinlian, who has inferior character, poisonous means, and snakes and scorpion hearts. As a victim, Wu Dalang has always been a party sympathetic to the world. Let's first look at how Wu Dalang got Pan Jinlian.
What is explained in the Water Margin is not detailed, and many friends do not know. Pan Jinlian was originally the daughter of a tailor's family, and was later sold to a rich man's house as a maid, because her appearance was too charming, and finally she was transferred to Zhang Yuanwai's home by the rich man. Although Zhang Yuanwai was over sixty years old, his heart did not change, but this old man was afraid of his wife, and at first he did not dare to act recklessly. It just so happened that Wu Dalang was living with Old Man Zhang at that time. Wu Dalang's daughter-in-law died, and he took his daughter Ying'er to do some small business outside, life was difficult, and he met Old Man Zhang, a good man, who let them live in the courtyard. Later, by chance, Zhang Yuanwai's wife went out of the house, and zhang Yuanwai was successful. Later, Zhang Yuan's wife came back and jumped violently, refusing to let Pan Jinlian go. Zhang Yuanwai had no choice, so he rewarded Pan Jinlian to Wu Dalang as his daughter-in-law.
Wu Dalang became a family, and he had the idea of establishing a room, and it didn't take long for him to buy a house with Pan Jinlian and move in with his daughter Ying'er. People who have seen the Water Margin do not have much deep impression on the role of Ying'er, but she is indeed the key figure in Wu Dalang's life fate, and she is also a decisive person. Why? At the beginning of the period to read the Water Margin, I thought that Ying'er was Pan Jinlian's maid, and later when I read the novel, I learned that it was the daughter of Wu Dalang and his deceased wife.
Pan Jinlian is actually a typical "stepmother" type of character, who scolds corporal punishment at every turn and is not allowed to eat. Wu Dalang actually understood his psychology very well, but he did not stop Pan Jinlian. His own daughter, is Wu Dalang really thick? Later, Wu Dalang was poisoned by Pan Jinlian, Wu Dalang lay on the bed, Ying'er did not call Lang Zhong, and even Wu Dalang wanted to drink water, asked Ying'er to bring him a bowl of water, and Ying'er did not care about him.
Ying'er is his own daughter, when he is going to die, he does not say to save his life, and he is not even willing to give him a bowl of water, how much does this Wu Dalang usually have to go too far? Heaven's sins are forgivable, but their own sins cannot be lived. Therefore, Wu Dalang was poisoned, although it is true that Pan Jinlian was poisoned, but Wu Dalang was not an honest person, and death was also self-inflicted.
