Aunt Zhao was Jia Zheng's concubine, and her impression of her was mainly focused on "three is not two", which brought a lot of trouble to her daughter Jia Tanchun, raised her son Jia Huan badly, and became a "hidden danger" within Rong Province, and Jia Baoyu and Wang Xifeng were almost killed by it.
Then, in addition to these, other information about Aunt Zhao is very vague, such as her origin, and the original text does not explain too much.
This article will explore the origin of Aunt Zhao, clear the clues in the original text, and try to restore the past story of Aunt Zhao.
In fact, to explore Aunt Zhao's origin, there may only be three sources.
First, the sons of the family of Jia Fu;
Second, Mrs. Wang accompanies the room;
Three, buy it from outside.
The first thing to rule out is "bought from outside", and Aunt Zhao is definitely not bought from outside! She has several relatives in the Jia family to prove it.
As for which one should be between "family children and accompanying rooms", Junji Yakan's view of the Red Chamber is that it is "accompanying the room", and it is more likely that children who are not born at home are greater.
First of all, Aunt Zhao was not a child from the family.
Madame Wang's personality is "jealous" and nepotistic. She could not have had children from the Jia family's house.
The jia family's children are all old people of the Jia family, and the advantage is to balance the interests. Aunt Zhou is the Wang family, and Aunt Zhao is just right if she is the Jia family.
However, Lady Wang was very strict in controlling the issue of Jia Zhengna's concubines, otherwise she would not have been Aunt Zhou for more than ten years after marriage, but she would not have been able to keep her life like Ping'er, but she would not be favored.
Lady Wang didn't care that the concubine she chose needed to balance her interests, just like Wang Xifeng wouldn't care who she chose to be a concubine for Jia Lian! They choose only what they need.
The Jia family has the support of the Jia family behind the child, and it needs to be cautious everywhere, and it is not easy to target and cannot be easily pinched, and Mrs. Wang will not use it.
Secondly, Aunt Zhao is more likely to be a "companion room".
There are a total of eight rooms for Lady Wang, namely "Zhao Qian Zhang Li, Zhou Wu Zheng Wang" these eight.
The characters that appear in life, such as Chang Sui around Jia Baoyu, have "six people, namely brother Li Gui and Wang Rong, Zhang Ruojin, Zhao Yihua, Qian Qi, and Zhou Rui".
Most of the people who serve Jia Baoyu come from Madame Wang's "accompanying room", which is also the embodiment of Madame Wang as the hostess of the house.
Aunt Zhao did not explicitly say that she was Madame Wang's roommate. However, the surname Zhao biao belongs to one of the "eight house surnames" that Lady Wang married, just like Aunt Zhou.
In addition, Aunt Zhao also has a nephew named "Qian Huai", although it is not clear how a nephew can be surnamed Qian. But there is no doubt that it proves that the Zhao family and the Qian family are people together, and the probability of being Mrs. Wang's companion like the Zhou family is very high.
Finally, Jia Tanchun said that Zhao Guoji was Lady Wang's slave.
While visiting the housekeeper, Aunt Zhao's brother Zhao Guoji died. In order to reward twenty-two pieces of silver or forty two pieces of silver, the mother and daughter had a big fight.
(Fifty-fifth time) Tan Chun took the account and looked at Aunt Zhao, read it to him again, and said: "This is the old rule in the hands of the ancestors, everyone follows it, but can I change it?" Not only will it attack people, but in the future, those who will receive the outside of the ring will naturally be the same as those who attack people. This is not a matter of contention, and it is not possible to talk about having a face and no face. He was a slave to his wife, and I followed the old rules. If he says that he does a good job, he receives the grace of his ancestors and the grace of his wife; if he says that he does not do it evenly, he is confused and does not know the blessing, and he has no choice but to complain about it. My wife even rewarded people with a house, and I have nothing to face; if I don't reward anything, I don't have any face.
Jia Tanchun believed that Zhao Guoji should reward twenty-two pieces of silver on the basis that Aunt Zhao was not a person outside, unlike the attackers.
According to Jia Mu's old accounts that year, the kind of people who attacked people bought outside was called outside, and the later Yanhong was also outside. But the family and the accompanying room are not counted as outsiders, they are counted as family.
Whether Aunt Zhao was accompanied by the Wang family or the Jia family had a son, her family died with twenty-two pieces of silver.
In particular, Jia Tanchun said that Zhao Guoji was "a slave of his wife", which was not said in vain.
In the Jia family's family, the children born in the family are all slaves in the family, and only the accompanying room can be said to be the slaves of the wife.
For example, When Wang Xifeng accompanies the room, Jia Lian uses "your girl" when he talks about Wang Xifeng to them.
Zhou Rui is Madame Wang's companion, and Grandma Lai said that he was the son who made a mistake, "He is not as good as the son of our family, he is now the wife's companion." Grandma only took care of him, and the wife's face was not good-looking", this statement cannot be wrong.
If Zhao Guoji is the son of the Jia family, Jia Tanchun will only say that he is a slave in the family. For it is impossible for all the children of the family to be divided among any individual. It is even more impossible to say in public that he is "the slave of the wife."
It also stems from this, Aunt Zhao's origin, nine times out of ten is Lady Wang's companion Zhao's family's big handmaiden.
Madame Wang thought that she was in good control, but she did not know that Aunt Zhao let her move a stone and drop it on her own feet, which was also ironic.
