Jia Zheng had a wife and two concubines, and Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao were both in Lady Wang's room. The blessings that seem to be in the qi people are actually intriguing.
The Jia family is an aristocrat, not to mention the group of wives and concubines, there should be no less concubines. In addition to the wives and concubines in Jia Shu and Jia Zhen's room, there are not many concubines in Ji and Tongfang.
However, there were very few people in Jia Zheng's room, not only were there no room ladies, but the Song and Dance Ji people were even more absent.
The reason for the lack of people in Jia Zhengfang, in addition to his bad manners, also reflects that Madame Wang's women's morality is problematic.
In ancient times, it was not up to men to take concubines and take over their own hands, and when they were unmarried, their mothers were the masters, and after marriage, their wives were in charge.
For example, Xue Pan wanted Na Xiangling as a concubine, so he asked Aunt Xue for permission. And the Qing Emperor Linxing Concubine, not only can flip the card, but also get the empress's consent.
In ancient times, wives had an absolute say in the affairs of their husbands' rooms. Lady Wang did not give Jia Zhengna concubines a concubine, and Jia Zheng only had Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao. Even if he is willful like Jia Amnesty, if he wants Mandarin Duck to be a concubine, he will let Lady Xing go to Zhang Luo for him.
Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao were both Concubines of Jia Zheng, and the title of "Aunt" was destined to be a lowly concubine, and they were from a handsome background. A good concubine like Sister You would be called "Grandma".
Because Aunt Zhao is the biological mother of Jia Tanchun and Jia Huan, Jia Zheng also spoils her, and her sense of existence is extremely strong. Unfortunately, it is not a good impression, and it is hated as a negative teaching material, and Ping'er said that she is "not two in three" and does not attract respect.
Unlike Aunt Zhao, Aunt Zhou is equivalent to an invisible person, and a limited number of appearances have been used as a foil for Aunt Zhao, without saying a word. On the contrary, Jia Tanchun borrowed Aunt Zhou's duty several times to have a measured measure, and counted down Aunt Zhao's restlessness.
Madame Wang was also obviously different from Zhou Zhao. Aunt Zhao was favored but suppressed, and Aunt Zhou was never bullied, and no one bothered her.
Madame Wang is not a good person, and like Wang Xifeng, she is a jealous person, but she is more secretive. Why would you turn a blind eye to Aunt Zhou? If you read the original text carefully, you will find that Madame Wang's methods of dealing with Aunt Zhou are even more fierce and ruthless.
Jia Zheng took wives and concubines after he became an adult, and generally speaking, his concubines mainly came from four aspects. That is, given by the parents, the promotion of the person in the house, the wife's dowry maid, and the wife's re-opening after middle age.
Qiu Tong's kind is given by her parents, although she is still an aunt, her status is very high and arrogant. Attacking people and Qingwen being favored by the elders is also like this.
People in the room were promoted, for example, Li Feng personally admitted that two people in Jia Zhu's room stayed after marriage to become concubines.
The promotion of the dowry maid is like Ping'er.
After middle age, his wife Zhang Luo was the kind of Aunt Zhao, and Lady Wang was old, and to show her virtuousness and generosity, she needed to find a young concubine for her husband.
The origin of Aunt Zhou is not explained, but from Wang Xifeng's behavior after marriage, it can be seen that Aunt Zhou was neither given by Jia Mu, nor promoted by a person in the room, nor was she a young concubine like Aunt Zhao, but definitely a dowry of Lady Wang.
Lady Wang's companion Zhou Rui and Aunt Zhou happened to have the same surname. Cao Xueqin would not be so lazy and coincidental. Aunt Zhou was born to the Wang family and became Lady Wang's dowry maid, and the Zhou family also followed the dowry to the Jia family to accompany the house.
In this way, Aunt Zhou's age is about the same as Or even only big or small compared to Lady Wang. Naturally, it is no longer in Jia Zheng's eyes, and it is even more unpopular.
In fact, Aunt Zhou would not be favored even if she was young. All because she is The confidant of Lady Wang's dowry, like Ping'er, she is separated from the male host.
At that time, Lady Wang was still young when she gave Aunt Zhou to Jia Zheng, but she did not let the two of them contact. Jia Zhengtian was also like Jia Lian to Ping'er for a long time, dissatisfied and no longer close.
Aunt Zhou was nothing more than Lady Wang's tie up Jia Zheng's reputation as a virtuous person, and she did not give excuses and tools to take concubines again. She sacrificed her happiness and reproductive power to escort Mrs. Wang's birth and childbearing.
Madame Wang knew aunt Zhou's efforts and would not be too harsh. In addition, Aunt Zhou had no children and no daughters, unlike Aunt Zhao, who had a son Jia Huan, which threatened Lady Wang's children and grandchildren.
Aunt Zhou's life was ruined, and Lady Wang gave Aunt Zhou's brother Zhou Rui's family a certain amount of compensation. They are not without reason.
Thinking about Aunt Zhou's life can't help but make people shudder. Madame Wang was far more mean and unkind to her than Aunt Zhao. Just like Wang Xifeng treats Ping'er, it seems that his confidants are actually ruthless and unjust, all of them are used, which is too chilling.
Aunt Zhou ruined her life for Lady Wang. When Lady Wang was satisfied, she took the place of Jia Zhengna's concubine Aunt Zhao to show her virtuousness. Aunt Zhou was like a used rag that was thrown aside, really pitiful and helpless.
