What is the meaning of Pan Jinlian's four baths in the Water Margin?
Let's take a look at the first time, in the cake room at four o'clock in the morning, Pan Jinlian prepared everything, and then gently woke up Wu Dalang, Da Lang, the medicine is good, get up and take the medicine, Da Lang should work hard, with Da Lang shouted the slogan, and when he went out to sell cakes, Pan Jinlian began to bathe, this first bath can only be said to be her love of clean, washing away a woman from a good family, the stinky sweat produced by hard work, at this time Pan Jinlian is definitely extremely virtuous, better than Pan Qiaoyun who won two nights and two years, and won the Yan Po of Song Jiang's master and apprentice
Let's look at the second time, after seeing Wu Song for the first time, Pan Jinlian once doubted the martial arts genes, and said that he was still growing up when he married Da Lang, but why didn't he grow into Wu Song, he looked tall and his brothers had all the abdominal muscles, and this bath gave more close-ups, and a scoop of bath water split his head and face from top to bottom, as if he was dousing his lust for Wu Song, or pondering his fate, is this the end of his life? At this time, Pan Jinlian has begun to disagree with his fate
For the third time, after getting along day by day, Pan Jinlian began to take special care of Wu Song, not only making a bed for him, but also sewing clothes for him personally
One day, while Da Lang sold cakes and did not return, Jin Lian took the initiative to mention a cup, and said that if you have my sister-in-law in your heart, then it will be done in the form of a glass of wine, after she played a lot of tricks, she wanted to get Wu Song drunk, but he Wu Song thirty bowls are not enough, Jin Lian naturally took the lead in getting drunk, and began to confide in the truth, expressing her love for Wu Song, but she was scolded by Wu Song for being dishonest, Jin Lian suddenly burst into tears, I didn't expect Wu Song to be so ruthless, I wanted to explain it again, but Wu Dalang returned in time, and blamed Wu Song
After that, Jin Lian took a bath again, this time while crying and washing, he hugged himself, put his hands on his shoulders, and imagined that Wu Song hugged him, and after a short period of intoxication, he turned from love to hate, since he couldn't get it, then he would ruin you and your brother's family
Finally, the fourth time, Jin Lian opened the window without anything, an iron rod fell, and hit the heavenly cannon star Ximen Qing, so the two of them began to know each other and fall in love with each other under the matchmaking of Wang Po, and soon had their first date, and then Jin Lian took a bath, it seemed that she was a little remorseful, wanted to wash away the evidence of the crime, or was a little excited, and wanted to wash away the smell of cooking cakes, anyway, this bath made Jin Lian completely figured it out, instead of following the three-inch Ding Wu Dalang plain, it was better to follow the scenery of Ximen Daguan, he completely incarnated into the sky burning star, and then Wu Dalang arrested people on the spot, but was seriously injured by Ximen Qing, and then was fed poison to death by Pan Jinlian
Then Wu Song came back to take revenge, first stabbed Pan Jinlian to death, and then killed Ximen Qing, it can be said that Pan Jinlian deserved it, these four baths made him more and more unclean, and it also represented her development process from a good woman to a slut, so the deepest detail hidden in the Water Margin must be Pan Jinlian taking a bath, and every time she took a bath, she promoted the development of the story
