He is not wise that is not wise for himself. This matter is said to be a person's basic cultivation in a small way, and people without self-knowledge will inevitably do a lot of unpleasant things and attract the undesirables of others; to say it in a big way, it may have a very serious impact on themselves, and even become a joke.
Especially for slaves of antiquity. Living in that era when the hierarchy was obvious, their identity had certain limitations, and it was important to put themselves in the right position in front of their masters.
However, in "Dream of the Red Chamber", there is one thing that is very difficult to understand - the masters are sometimes too good to the slaves, which inevitably makes some slaves have the illusion that they are on an equal footing with the masters, and may even not pay attention to the masters. In "Dream of the Red Chamber", such examples can be said to abound.
Fang Guan was too favored, so he thought that he was "solipsistic" in the Grand View Garden, not to mention the handmaiden mother-in-law, even the young master Jia Huan was not put in her eyes; Siqi was very important in the Yingchun Room, plus there was also a grandmother who made a room for Lady Xing, and she also thought that she was superior. The fate of these ladies is relatively sad.
However, if you say that the most self-righteous servant in "Dream of the Red Chamber" is still an attacker in the Yihong Courtyard. Although this girl is silent and quiet in her daily life, it seems to be a low-key duty, but because Jia Baoyu cares for and spoils her most, she has actually forgotten who she really is.
Therefore, even if it was two young ladies in the homes of the two relatives of Jia Fu, she did not pay attention to them at all. Miss Qianjin, who attacked people's least favorite, was probably Lin Daiyu.
Although Dai Yu came to Jia Fu since she was a child and received the extreme favor of Jia Mu, in the eyes of the attackers, this cousin who was both intelligent and intelligent was still not considered a person from Jia Fu. Is Lin Daiyu a person from Jia Province? Wang Xifeng must have no doubt that Lin Daiyu was a person from Jia Province, so when she raided the Grand View Garden, she did not go to the Yuanwu Garden, but immediately went to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion. This move is not that Wang Xifeng is deliberately creating trouble for Daiyu, but that she is euphemistically defending Lin Daiyu so that she will not have a different feeling in Jia Province.
Wang Xifeng, who is still extremely valued, is a "lazy person" in the eyes of the attackers. In front of Jia Baoyu, the attackers complained about Lin Daiyu, "I haven't taken needles and threads for half a year, Rao is like this, the old lady is still afraid that she is tired, and the doctor said that it is good to live and recuperate."
People's grandmothers are willing to spoil people, what is the matter with you as a? Is this something that should be a complaining behind his back? Moreover, the attackers also kept their mouths shut, slandering Lin Daiyu, saying that she "loves to make sex", obviously Xue Baochao was left in place by Jia Baoyu, and the attackers had to pull Lin Daiyu out, "If this is Lin Girl, how much do you have to lose?"
A handsome man, who could not put herself in the right position, slandered Miss Qianjin behind her back, and did not know where her courage came from. And another Miss Qianjin, Shi Xiangyun, has almost become a "handmaiden" who attacked people.
There were more than a dozen servants in the Mingming Yi Red Courtyard, and if the raiders had needlework, they still had to be handed over to Shi Xiangyun to do. Even if Shi Xiangyun was in the Shi family, he was not allowed to live in peace, and the raiders would send people to send needlework to the Shi family and let Shi Xiangyun help him do it.
Attacking people so wantonly is nothing more than serving Shi Xiangyun for a few days. As a servant, isn't it her job to serve the master? And what is the credit?
It is said that Qingwen is crazy, in fact, Qingwen is just a little sharp with sharp teeth, and kung fu is used on the skin of the mouth; attacking people is to use kung fu on the heart machine, and her actions are far more crazy than Qingwen.
Once, the raiders earned themselves a very high status, and even Wang Xifeng and Li Feng had to look up to her. But her ending was equally tragic - she was thrown out of Jia Province, married to the drama jiang Yuhan, and became the wife of the lower nine streams, which in ancient times can be said to be worse than death.
The so-called "envy and good fortune" is just Cao Xueqin's most ruthless mockery of the attackers.
