Human behavior is unfolding step by step, and it is the result of the development of things and situations. Many later acts, the subject did not think at the initial stage, let alone have any obvious ideological basis and action planning.
Of course, it is not excluded that some things from planning to landing, there is indeed a process, or even a longer process. But – first, not everything has such a process; second, not every process is that long.
But the human mind is often easy to fall into the "God perspective", after understanding all the information, often for everything to find some "long-standing" "clues", followed by a series of logical inversion, the introduction of a very early and very early starting stage, making it seem as if many things have been brewing for a long time.
Reading "Dream of the Red Chamber" also has this problem, especially after we know all the things, we tend to follow this line of thought, especially with the perception that some characters have formed in the later text, and then come to some conclusions with confidence - some conclusions seem to have become general.
However, if we put aside the "God perspective" and look closely at the specific situation, some conclusions may not be valid.
"Dai Yu enters the Jia Mansion" - If by the time Bao Yu appears, there are less than five thousand words in total, it is seen that there are at least three "big pits" that seem to have been planned for a long time, and Dai Yu's career of "wind and frost and sword is strictly forced" (the twenty-seventh time) seems to have begun at this time.
So let's take a closer look.
First, in jia mu crying to receive her granddaughter, the next faction of sadness contains a harmonious atmosphere, and mixed with the comedy of Feng Jie's "appearance". It was precisely in this bridge section, in the process of fengjie and Mrs. Wang's exchange of housework, a sentence suddenly appeared: "You should take out two at any time and give your sister to tailor clothes"!
It is said that this is the first "pit" that Madame Wang dug for Daiyu: the word "casual", showing contempt for Daiyu.
And do not rush to analyze, first count the "great sins" of Madame Wang in this book.
Second, he came out of Jia Yu's room and went to the "three small main rooms" in Jia Zheng's room. "Lady Wang sat on the west side of the head", "When she saw Daiyu coming, she gave way to the east", and "Daiyu expected in her heart that this was Jia Zheng's position".
It is said that this is the second "pit" that Madame Wang dug for Daiyu: misleading Daiyu to "trespass". Fortunately, Dai Yu was clever, "sat down on the chair", and in the case of "Madame Wang repeatedly took her to the kang", it was also "Lady Wang sat down" - or "the head under the west" and successfully "hid in the pit".
Third, Madame Wang instructed Daiyu to "I have a evil root and a demon king in the family", "Don't pay attention to him in the future", "Sweet words in my mouth for a while, a day and a day, a moment of madness and stupidity, only to believe in him."
It is said that this is the third "pit" that Madame Wang dug for Daiyu: do a good job of preventive injections, warn Daiyu, and prevent Bao Dai from approaching.
Madame Wang's "conspiracy" is almost over, let's think about it and think about it carefully.
To be a person, you must have a role positioning. Whether it is true or not, Madame Wang, as the daughter-in-law of the head of the household, cannot show obvious sloppiness and indifference to the object of the warm welcome of the old ancestors, but also her own juniors.
More importantly, there must always be an overall subjective motivation for everything. Belittling Daiyu, misleading Daiyu, and warning Daiyu, Madame Wang is nothing more than to achieve her desired purpose and realize her vision and vision of her son's marriage.
However, at this time, Madame Wang's vision and vision was still a bird in the sky, not a dish on the plate- Baochao was still in the "to be selected" (the fourth time) stage, and Aunt Xue could not retreat to the second place and consider the marriage of Jia Fu. As for the call for "golden jade good fortune" of Rauschzi, it was even after Baochao got the "new flowers in the palace to pile up yarn flowers" (those who have watched the draft TV series know what is called "picking up the brand and giving flowers"), "Madame Wang and Aunt Xue said some housework and other words at length" (the seventh time), and after the planning of the golden warbler to create public opinion", it was like the two sentences on the girl's collar are a pair" (the eighth time).
In the absence of the above scene, there was no need for Madame Wang to risk offending the old ancestor and blatantly commit such an act.
What's more, if Baochao is successfully selected and Lady Wang does not have a pro-branch close faction candidate, Dai Yu, as a cousin, as the daughter of Tanhua Lin Ruhai, is included in the daughter-in-law candidate, Lady Wang is not unwilling - as for her attitude towards Dai Yu later, it is also due to Bao Chao's entry and the contrast between relatives and distances, and it is impossible to ferment at this time.
Ten thousand steps back, even if there is no comparison of Baochao, Madame Wang will not be cold to Daiyu, which will gradually arise in later life, where will it surface at this time? Unless it is according to some kind of theory, Lady Wang and Jia Min's sister-in-law are at odds, so they are naturally disgusted with Daiyu, but there is no evidence to support this.
Moreover, Bao Dai has not yet met, whether "The Yellow Eagle caught the harrier's foot" (the thirtieth time) is impossible to predict, and what reason does Madame Wang have to give a preventive injection, warn Daiyu, and prevent Bao Dai from approaching? If according to this logic, in addition to Baochao, Lady Wang will have to see a warning - if Baochao is successful in entering the palace, Lady Wang will have to let Brother Shi be single for life, isn't it absurd?
After the above analysis, if we insist that Madame Wang is "digging a pit" for Daiyu, then there is only one possibility - she knows the existence of the "Mushi Qianmeng", knows that her son is the "sick god Ying", and the one who comes is the "Bitter Daizhu" (the ninety-eighth time). But then, she would not be Madame Wang, but a police fairy or a leper monk or a lame Daoist.
Once relieved, I understood that Mrs. Wang's motives were not so complicated at all, and then looking at her few actions, it was a very normal family life and the atmosphere of receiving relatives and friends:
"You should take out two and give your sister to tailor clothes" - "Casual" is actually a manifestation of closeness, especially the aunt's niece, this attitude is very natural, both obviously concerned and not false, but also Mrs. Wang's duty as a family member.
Don't say "casual", say "solemn, carefully selected"!? It seems that there is a problem, maybe the old ancestor will have a "child's family, there can withstand this" nagging.
As for "Madame Wang was sitting on the west side of the head", "When she saw Daiyu coming, she gave way to the east." Although that place should usually be the "position of Jia Zheng", it can also be regarded as the position of the respected. As a distant guest, Dai Yu did not have any major problems sitting there, and on that day Jia Zheng "fasted", not at home, there would be no position conflict, and there was no problem to speak of.
If Madame Wang is "digging a pit", then at dinner, Dai Yu is arranged to "sit down on the first chair on the left", and Jia Mu clearly states that "you are a guest, you should have sat like this" - is Jia Mu also "digging a pit" for Dai Yu? Then it is better to simply analyze and analyze, Jia Mu received Daiyu and what conspiracy it contained!
Of course, dai Yu "sat down on the chair" at the beginning, and later "sat down with Madame Wang", which was not wrong - but it was only careful and humble, and it was not to talk about "hiding in the pit".
Besides, there was nothing wrong with Madame Wang telling Daiyu to "not pay attention to him in the future." For Baoyu, Lady Wang is of course fond of and even doting, but she is different from her son - "stubborn and abnormal, does not like to read, most like to mess around in the inner world", "sweet words in the mouth, a moment of daylessness, a moment of madness and stupidity", although not as deeply disgusted as the political master, but also feels that it is not like a look. It is not an exaggeration to say such two words in front of relatives who have come to the door for the first time.
In fact, the later text attacked people to persuade Daiyu, "Girl don't do this!" In the future, I am afraid that there will be more strange jokes than this" Is also the meaning, and it is the same as Madame Wang- of course, if we must interpret the sentence of attacking people according to the "perspective of God" as Madame Wang's confidants cooperating with Madame Wang to "dig a pit", there is no way, although at this time the attacker is not Madame Wang's confidant at all.
In the fold of "Dai Yu entering Jia Mansion", and even in the whole "Dream of the Red Chamber", some things may really be that we think too much, bringing the plot presets and perception stereotypes of the later text to the previous text. In fact, if you think about it calmly, you will understand that if the internal contradictions and conflicts really began to be exposed so early, then I am afraid that "Dream of the Red Chamber" will be difficult to unfold its magnificent and climactic picture.
I am afraid that there is another reason for the deviation of the cognition of the problem, that is, a certain expanded and absolutized understanding of Cao Gong's superb skills of "grass snake gray line, thousands of miles of volts", and regard everything as a premonition and a sign. "Grass snake gray line, thousands of miles" as a literary technique, must be done very cleverly, if it is separated, if it is intermittent, hazy in the outline, there are signs but not clear, until the final "unveiling" only makes people feel unexpected, reasonable, shooting the case is amazing, hit the festival applause. If "grass snake gray line, fu pulse thousands of miles" is as shallow and straightforward as the understanding of Madame Wang's behavior described in this article, then where is it still from "Dream of the Red Chamber"? Where is our Cao Gong's big pen?
