The second generation of officials Yu Zhiyun and Yang Yuanfang

In the play, Yang Jikang has five daughters and a clear personality. The eldest daughter, Yang Yuanfang, obeyed the rules and duties, and when the eldest son-in-law, Yue Zhiyun, was unwilling to take in her parents, she had no choice but to kneel and plead, marry her husband, and did not dare to fight. The second daughter, Yang Shuangtao, has been spoiled since childhood and is good at playing tricks. Learning of the case of his uncle Yang Jisheng may have caused his parents to hurry home. Knowing that his parents came to the big sister's house in Suzhou, he thought that his parents had not harvested the plant, afraid that his mother's 300,000 private money would be swallowed by the big sister, so he quickly went to pick it up. As a result, it was self-defeating, and the shame turned into anger, so that the parents went to the kitchen to eat, and the parents humiliated the parents in the way that the parents humiliated the three-daughter couple.

The second daughter is the second generation of officials and the second generation of wealth

The third daughter, Yang Sanchun, is the adopted daughter of Yang Jikang, and the flowers and branches have different roots in the garden. He also married a poor scholar Zou Yinglong, and his adoptive mother looked down on him. Lai Bai Shou was stolen by thieves and entangled, and he had no choice but to come empty-handed. The adoptive mother would not let them eat at the same table as other daughters and sons-in-law. Sanchun took the opportunity to make up shou shoes for his parents, which were said to be worn by the two women and double peaches. The maid Cuiyun was insulted by Xia Lian, who was a double peach lady, and Cuiyun slapped Xia Lian. Shuang Tao asked Sanchun not to succeed, went to her mother to complain, Yang Mother blamed Sanchun, let Sanchun make reparations, Sanchun retorted, and was said by Yang Mother that it was filial piety and expelled from the palace. The eldest sister was blocked by Yu Zhiyun in sending silver, and only The lady Cuiyun sent silver to send clothes, which made Sanchun feel that "the lord is better than the mother-daughter relationship". The fourth daughter, Yang Sixiang, and the fifth daughter, Yang Wufeng, were both well-behaved daughters who listened to their parents, and were married to Chen Songnian's two sons after Yang Jikang's close friend Zai Xiang. There is no opinion in the face of great right and wrong.

The fourth daughter Yang Sixiang and the rich second generation Chen Wenxin

Among Yang Jikang's five sons-in-law, the eldest son-in-law, Yu Zhiyun, was the son of Shangshu and a standard second-generation official. But he had no great ambitions, and he did not achieve what he said about being a son-in-law like a half-son. When Yang Jikang was about to be affected, he dragged Yang Yuanfang home and advised the four sons-in-law and five sons-in-law to "not stand under the dangerous wall." Hou Hua used 10,000 taels of silver to worship Yan Song as his righteous father. Not only did he not take in his father-in-law and mother-in-law, but he also wrote a letter to Chen Songnian that he could not take in Yang Jikang, which was really a villainous act. The second son-in-law, Ding Dafu, is the son of the richest man in Suzhou, a standard rich second generation, who is afraid of his wife everywhere and listens to his wife when things happen. He also worshiped Yan Song as his righteous father with the help of Yu Zhiyun.

"Five Daughters Worship Shou" has made Tao Huimin a teacher

The fourth son-in-law, Chen Wenxin, and the fifth son-in-law, Chen Wenhua, were both prime ministers and second-generation officials, but they had no opinion when they encountered danger. Only the third son-in-law, Zou Yinglong, although born in the cold door, but read and cultivated, and finally zhongzhuangyuan, and the plot finally got rid of Yan Song.

Through the above analysis, the officials and the rich second generation have been people with no great ambitions, inflammatory tendencies, lack of kindness, and overwhelmed since ancient times. Only those who are born in the cold door know how to be kind, filial, inspirational, serve the country, and achieve great things.

Another typical example of the second generation of officials is the Dang Jinlong in the opera "Butcher Zhuangyuan", who was originally killed by Yang Hunt and should be determined to avenge Xue Hate. However, after winning the Middle Title, he defected to the enemy, and even kicked his mother and sister down the river, losing his conscience. Finally, it was picked up by the butcher Hu Shan.

History proves that the second generation of officials and the second generation of the rich are ultimately overwhelmed and cannot achieve great things. The success of "Five Daughters Worshiping Shou" shows that a good play should have a good intention, a good story, a good performance, and a good singing voice. Costume drama still has to have some relationship with history in order to be deeply loved.
