Wang Xifeng and Grandma Liu, one is the grandmother in the rich family, and the other is the village old woman in the poor household, which can be described as one in the sky and one in the underground.
But it is such a pair with great contrast, but it can be said that the most harmonious relationship in "Dream of the Red Chamber" has reached a state of "trust" (which is not easy for Wang Xifeng). In particular, Wang Xifeng's daughter Qiao Jie'er, not only had her name entrusted to Liu Grandma, but she had all grown up under the protection of Liu Grandma after the defeat of Jia Province.
Obviously, in the relationship between these two, Wang Xifeng holds the initiative. So, why did Sister Feng get along so well with Grandma Liu?
They didn't spend much time together, mainly because Grandma Liu had entered the RongGuo Mansion twice before.
When Grandma Liu first entered the Rongguo Mansion, Wang Xifeng received her, needless to say that she was condescending and very arrogant, as can be seen from one detail:
Sister Feng didn't take the tea either, nor did she look up, but just brushed the ashes in the stove and slowly asked, "Why don't you invite in?" As he spoke, when he lifted up to ask for tea, he saw that Zhou Rui's family had already brought two people to stand on the ground. Only then was he busy getting up, and when he didn't get up, he greeted him with a spring breeze on his face, and he scolded the Zhou Rui family for not saying it earlier. Grandma Liu had been praying underground for several prayers and asked Her Aunt Ann. Sister Feng said busily, "Sister Zhou, get up quickly, don't worship, please sit down." I was young and didn't recognize me, but I didn't know what the number was, and I didn't dare to call it. ”
A series of words and actions vividly painted the image of Feng Jie's towering above. Zhou Rui's family stood on the ground with Grandma Liu and Ban'er, how could she not know? I had to "slowly ask" why I was not invited in; when Grandma Liu "prayed for a few times" in the underground to greet Ann, she was busy with Zhou Rui's family to pick up and "don't worship".
In a word, very fake.
Then she said politely for a moment:
"Relatives don't move around much, they are estranged. You know, saying that you have abandoned us and refused to come often, and that little man who doesn't know is only as if there is no one in our eyes... The imperial court also has three poor relatives, not to mention you and me. ”
Finally she was sent off with twenty-two pieces of silver. Of course, this is already a windfall for Grandma Liu, and it is "only a thousand thanksgiving.".
In view of the fact that the RongGuo Mansion "smoked Feng" may not be Liu Grandma's family, it cannot be said that Sister Feng is too stingy, but the meaning of charity is still quite strong.
When Grandma Liu entered the Rongguo Mansion, the situation was different. Although Feng Jie is still condescending, this time it is not simply to take a few silver to send it off; in order to make Jia Mu happy, she also showed her prank means, joined hands with Mandarin Duck, and used Liu Grandma as a female version of "Xiang Gong", and played a good play.
Supposedly, this would have been the same ending as the first time I entered the house. But the truth is that the relationship between Feng Jie and Liu Grandma has undergone subtle changes. Although there is still a huge difference, it is only in terms of identity. Psychologically, it is approaching.
When she first met Liu Grandma, Wang Xifeng had already felt her simplicity and contentment, but it was not obvious; when she met for the second time and arranged "entertainment activities", Sister Feng truly felt that when Liu Grandma faced all kinds of teasing, it was as if she was good at the method of "four or two strokes of a thousand pounds", and she unloaded all the hidden malice, leaving only good-natured jokes and happiness; and all this was so natural and sincere, so naturally sincere that Sister Feng and Mandarin Duck felt that it was a little embarrassing to tease Grandma Liu.
And perhaps what has aroused Feng Jie's respect even more is that in the face of their "embarrassment", what Grandma Liu said was:
"Let's coax the old lady to open her heart, but what's the fuss!" You tell me first, and I'll understand, but everyone makes a joke. ”
That is to say, she did not see herself as a teasing object, but as a role in a "joke drama", together with Feng Jie, Mandarin Duck and others, to make the old lady happy. Whether you are being teased or playing the "role" of being teased may seem to be one thing, but it is essentially different.
Obviously, Wang Xifeng could feel The "wisdom of life" from here that Grandma Liu based on the experience of life at the bottom. It is conceivable that this touch on Wang Xifeng was very great.
We know that Wang Xifeng mainly relies on "subjugating", with hard rules and cruel means. The advantage of this method is that it is worry-free and efficient, and everything comes according to the rules! But the disadvantages are also obvious, the face dress is not necessarily the heart is satisfied, once the situation changes, it may not be able to hold back.
Wang Xifeng should know this, so his opponents (except Ping'er), especially those in-laws, are very distrustful. And these people, as long as she is not paying attention, will make a moth. This can also be seen from Feng Jie's illness and the process of visiting the spring council.
And this Liu Grandma is different. Although she actually came to Jia Fu to smoke and seek benefits. But she was indeed grateful. She seems to be like Feng Jie who "knows herself and knows the other", satisfying both the other party and herself, and the most important thing is "sincerity". This was something that Wang Xifeng could not feel in the others in Jia Province.
In summary, Wang Xifeng especially had a sense of affinity for Grandma Liu.
