As a rich man, Jia Lian was contaminated with many bad habits of the men at that time, so the warblers and swallows around him would never be lonely. However, there are only a few women who can officially become Jia Lian's wife and concubines--Wang Xifeng, the second sister of the second room, ping'er, and Qiutong, who Jia pardoned to give to his son.
These women have very different personalities and are very different. As the saying goes, character determines destiny. Therefore, they also have different lives.
As a proper wife, Wang Xifeng was born noble, had a strong nature, was deaf and clear-sighted, and was articulate, and was a woman who could not tolerate sand in her eyes. To a certain extent, the strong Wang Xifeng even suppressed her husband Jia Lian to the point of not being able to lift her head. Those nephews and nephews in Jia Fu also know that if they want to find an errand in the Rongguo Mansion, "it is better to ask for an uncle than an aunt."
Of course, Wang Xifeng's personality cannot be said to be a shortcoming. Because of his shrewdness and ability, many things in Jia Mansion did not need Jia Lian to worry about at all, and Wang Xifeng could handle them properly. But obviously, such a way will also make Jia Lian, who is a man, somewhat faceless in front of outsiders. Therefore, Jia Lian's opinion of Wang Xifeng was getting bigger and bigger, and his mind was inevitably less and less on Wang Xifeng's body.
In order to keep Jia Lian's heart, Wang Xifeng did not hesitate to take his dowry, Ping'er. Ping'er and Wang Xifeng have many similarities, they are both rare shrewd and capable women in ancient times, with unquestionable wisdom and clean means of handling things. But Ping'er was a little more gentle than Wang Xifeng.
Perhaps it was because of the slave's origin that Ping'er could not have Wang Xifeng's strength; or perhaps it was his nature. In short, Ping'er's gentleness is really heartwarming. For Jia Lian, who is accustomed to seeing a strong wife, he also likes Ping'er the most.
However, Ping'er also has a clear shortcoming - she is too afraid of Wang Xifeng. She has been with Miss Wang Xifeng since she was a child, and she knows everything about Wang Xifeng's disposition. She also watched Wang Xifeng with her own eyes and took away Jia Lian's two concubines before marriage. Therefore, she knew that if she and Jia Lian got too close, the next person to be picked up would definitely be herself. Therefore, in order to protect herself, she had to hide from Jia Lian everywhere. This made Jia Lian dissatisfied, so there was Second Sister You.
Speaking of suppleness, there is probably no woman in "Dream of the Red Chamber" who can compare with You Erjie. This woman from a cold door was tender like water in front of Jia Lian, and for a time firmly grasped Jia Lian's heart. In order to make Second Sister You happy, Jia Lian did not hesitate to tell a big lie, claiming that Wang Xifeng was about to die of illness, and when she died, she would take Second Sister You into the main room.
Unfortunately, the love between the two people did not last too long. When Second Sister You entered the Rongguo Mansion, and when Qiutong was pardoned by Jia and given to Jia Lian, this love based on lies was shattered like a beautiful soap bubble.
Qiu Tong did not have the strength of Wang Xifeng, nor did she have the softness of Sister You, and she was not like Ping'er, who was a soft and rigid woman. The biggest feature of Qiutong is spicy, arbitrary and rude. She scolded people, and as ugly as those words were, she spilled them, and even Wang Xifeng retreated. However, Jia Lian just likes Qiu Tong. This is really a puzzling question.
Ever since Qiu Tong entered Jia Lian's yard, Jia Lian had slept in Qiu Tong's room every night. He was no longer afraid that his wife Wang Xifeng would be jealous, nor was he afraid of snubbing the old Aiyou second sister. Qiu Tong simply became Jia Lian's "life", and Jia Lian was obedient to her and did everything.
As a rich man, although Jia Lian has many problems, he has received quality education since he was a child, has a very effective manner, and is definitely a gentle and elegant gentleman on the surface. Why is it that Qiu Tong, who loves to explode and has a vulgar nature, can actually become Jia Lian's favorite?
In fact, the reason is simple and simple. The appearance of Qiutong is a good opportunity for Jia Lian to challenge Wang Xifeng's authority. At this time, Jia Lian's dissatisfaction with Wang Xifeng had accumulated to a certain extent, and the Jia Lian who was scared and yellow because of the girl's hair was no longer there, and he wanted Wang Xifeng to know this.
In other words, Jia Lian's exclusive pet of Qiutong is not really more love for Qiutong, but because she does not love Wang Xifeng, nor is she afraid of Wang Xifeng. At this time, Wang Xifeng also adopted a tacit attitude towards Jia Lian's practice.
The so-called Jia Lian's love for QiuTong is just a prelude to the couple's real breakup.
