All the sisters hurriedly told him, "This is Sister-in-law Lian." Although Daiyu didn't know, she had heard her mother say that Jia Lian, the son of her uncle Jia Yu, was married to the niece of her second uncle, Wang's family, and she was raised as a boy since she was a child, and her scientific name was Wang Xifeng. Daiyu was busy laughing and saluting, and called her "sister-in-law". ”
Last time, when Jia Mu introduced Wang Xifeng, she only said that she was "splashing skin and breaking down" and "spicy", but she didn't tell who it was. Lin Daiyu didn't know how to deal with it, but fortunately, the sisters relieved her.
☞ Let's talk about the Red Chamber series 147, and use the smallest space to talk about the details in "Dream of Red Mansions".
After talking about Wang Xifeng several times, I finally want to say her name.
"Wang Xifeng" is now her daughter's name when she hears it.
But in ancient times until the end of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, the word "phoenix" was basically monopolized by men's names. It is rare for a daughter to use the word "phoenix" for her name.
The reason for this is that although the phoenix and the phoenix are one kind, they are divided into male and female. Just like the mandarin duck, the mandarin duck is male, and the duck is female. And the phoenix is the male, and the phoenix is the female. That's why there is "Phoenix Seeking Phoenix".
In ancient times, daughters were named, and the phoenix was available, but the phoenix was not available.
For example, no daughter wants to have a name like so-and-so, so-and-so, strong, iron pillar, and steel egg.
Although Feng is good-sounding, it has the same meaning when used for her daughter.
In history, those who are named after phoenixes are basically men. For example, Wang Feng, Pang Zhifeng, and even Miao Renfeng in Jin Yong's novel "Snow Mountain Flying Fox", Mao Renfeng, a special agent of the Republic of China Military Command, etc. Not to mention.
The eldest man of the Wang family not only named his daughter Wang Xifeng, but also raised him as a boy.
is different from Lin Daiyu, who was raised as a son and hired Jia Yucun, who was born as a jinshi, to teach culture and inherit the fragrance of books. Wang Xifeng was raised as a man, but he couldn't read a basket of big characters, indicating that the Wang family, as a family that started with military achievements, did not pay attention to culture, but paid more attention to the character and means of cultivating children.
Wang Xifeng's "awesomeness" comes from the upbringing of his parents since childhood. Not to mention dancing with guns and sticks like boys, it must be as naughty as splashing and rolling, and going to the house to reveal the tiles.
This also corresponds to Jia's mother saying that she is sloppy and settled, and she has an informal style of dealing with things.
The first to use "phoenix" for women is the empress Wu Zetian, so far the male emperor is called the dragon, and the female emperor is called the phoenix.
Wang Xifeng's name is "Phoenix", and the author is implying that Wang Xifeng has Wu Zetian's character and ambition.
But whether there is the ability of the empress or not, it will be seen.
Wu Zetian and Li Zhi's husband and wife "turned against each other", which also reflected the ending of Wang Xifeng and her husband Jia Lian in the future.
It should also be noted that Wang Xifeng in "Dream of Red Mansions" is not just Sister Feng, but also has a protagonist named Wang Xifeng in "Feng Qiuluan". This character and story unveiled the internal contradictions and struggles between the four major families of the Wang family and the Jia family, which will be discussed later.
Looking at Wang Xifeng's name, it probably reveals that she is ambitious, has a desire for power, and will do whatever it takes to achieve her goals. But whether she can truly realize life depends on her personal ability.
As Lian's second grandmother, Lian Tonglian, like Zhen Yinglian, really deserves pity.
No matter how domineering the name of "Wang Xifeng" is, in "Dream of Red Mansions", "Wang" is "death", and the ending is destined to be sad and pitiful.
