There is a famous saying in "White Night", "There are two things in the world that are most difficult to look at, one is the sun, and the other is the human heart." "Looking directly at the sun will make you dazzled and dizzy; looking directly at people's hearts will make you shudder and shudder."
Some people always hide the most unexpected dirtiness and ugliness in their hearts, and may also be divided into two completely different personalities, making people uncertain and difficult to distinguish between true and false. Sometimes, whether a person is a good person or a bad person, it is difficult for us to make a conclusion. Because in different things, the person may show completely different attitudes and conduct.
The most difficult person to look at in "Dream of the Red Chamber" is probably Jia Yu Village. The man who first appeared in "Dream of the Red Chamber" was once a down-and-out student who lived in a broken temple and made a living by selling words.
"A Biography for the Boudoir", "Dream of the Red Chamber", which mainly describes the life of the nobility, why would a poor man be used as the opening work of the entire book? In fact, it is precisely because this man who looks the most inconspicuous at this time will play an irreplaceable role in the book, and his life will also have a major impact on the "Jinling Twelve Chao".
The process of Jia Yucun's major influence on "Dream of the Red Chamber" can also be summarized as his deep love for the confidant of The Red Face, and the revenge of the three benefactors.
Not abandoning one's confidant and loving oneself is a man's sense of responsibility, which is worthy of appreciation and praise; revenge for the benefactor is a person's most despicable conduct and the behavior that should be spurned the most. These two points are shown in a person, and it has to be said that this is the most complex side of human nature, and it is also the most difficult to be looked at directly by the human heart.
Jia YuCun's confidante is Jiaoxing, the handmaiden of Zhen Shi's hidden family. In fact, the so-called "confidant with a red face" is just Jia Yucun's self-made sentimentality. Only because Jiaoxing looked at Jia Yucun a few times out of a moment of curiosity when she was picking flowers, this downcast student thought she was a "giant-eyed hero" and saw that she was definitely not a thing in the pool. Since then, Jia Yucun has been obsessed with Jiaoxing.
Until he relied on the help of Zhen Shiyin, he did achieve fame, and met Jiaoxing on the road, and immediately thought of trying to adopt her as a concubine, and after Jiaoxing gave birth to a son, he helped her to be the main room. A young lady, with the rise of Jia Yu Village, became the Lady of the Great Sima Dynasty. This is unexpected "good luck". Jia Yu Village's pair of jiaoxing can also be called inseparable.
In the era of "expensive and easy to make friends, rich and easy to wife", it is really a bit precious.
However, what Jia Yucun did to his three benefactors was disgraceful.
The first benefactor of Jia Yu Village was Zhen Shiyin. Without Zhen Shiyin's help, he would not have had the opportunity to go to Beijing to seek fame, and he would not have his Qingyun straight up. However, when Jia Yucun personally tried the sale of Yinglian, he still did not hesitate to push the daughter of his benefactor into the fire pit until Yinglian fell into the tragic end of "since the birth of a lonely tree in two places, causing the soul of Xiang to return to his hometown".
The second benefactor of Jia Yu Village is Lin Ruhai. At that time, he was dismissed from jia yu village and was Lin Daiyu's teacher. It was precisely because of Lin Ruhai's help that Jia Yucun had the opportunity to enter Beijing to resume his post, and soon became the prefect of Yingtian. How did Jia Yucun "repay" his benefactor?
Readers who are familiar with "Dream of the Red Chamber" know that a very tragic incident occurred in the forty-eighth time, and twenty stone idiots of Xiangfei and Yuzhu Ancient Fans were framed by Jia Yucun for defaulting on official silver and imprisoned, and their lives and deaths were unknown. The twenty ancient fans were also given to Jia Yu. As I have analyzed in my previous articles, in fact, these twenty ancient fans are the symbols of Lin Daiyu; the stone idiot is Jia Baoyu. In other words, Lin Daiyu's tragic ending, like Yinglian, is inseparable from Jia Yu Village.
Dai Yu was Lin Ruhai's only daughter and the most reassuring person for Lin Ruhai before she died. Jia Yucun's persecution of Lin Daiyu is a betrayal of Lin Ruhai, and it is also his most desperate revenge for his benefactor.
The third benefactor of Jia Yu Village is naturally Jia Zheng. Jia Zheng not only helped Jia Yu Village to reinstate, but also admired Jia Yu Village, there is anything in Jia Province, Jia Zheng likes to invite this "nephew" to participate in it, even the Grand View Garden built for the relatives of YuanChun Province, Jia Zheng also believes that Jia Yu Village must be inscribed with a plaque.
However, according to the contents of the first eighty times, especially after the seventy-second time Jia Yu Village was demoted, it is clear that in order to climb to a high position again, he betrayed Jia Fu, and when Jia Fu was at its worst, he stomped on it fiercely, so that Jia Fu would be doomed.
The most complex human nature is vividly reflected in Jia Yucun. He is a confidant of the red face of a humble origin, and he does not abandon him, and he seems to be a good man in the world; but he is unkind to several benefactors who have helped him, and he will take revenge, and he is a despicable person who is not compromised.
