Why did Granny Liu want Banel to marry Qiaojie, who used to be a fireworks girl?

A Dream of Red Mansions has created many women with unique talents and different personalities, each of whom has a distinct color. They all come from official families. Imperial power and national interests naturally have many conveniences. As long as the family background lasts, this person is destined to be rich all his life, and ordinary people can't get three days of happiness by working all their lives.

However, if something unexpected happens, these rich women will become scapegoats and become the five most pitiful female groups in the world. There is no way to ask for help, and they should not call for help.

For example, at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, the royal women who suffered the humiliation of Jing Kang were given to Jurchen as debts at different prices. As a result, these pampered women ended up in a desolate place, some became the concubine toys of the nobles, and some became the handmaiden of the laundry room. Except for a few heroic women who committed suicide, most of them were trampled to death, and some of them lived in the world.

Fate is impermanent, 30 years east and 30 years west, the wind and water turn, and people's fate often has many possibilities. For women, their fate is more like duckweed, drifting with the wind, and most of them can't decide their own fate. It is their nature to go with the flow.

The genius of A Dream of Red Mansions lies in writing the rise and fall of time through a group of rich children. It also tells the world that no matter how much credit and glory the ancestors have, the descendants who fail to live up to expectations and have no skills can't escape the fate of family destruction, whether they are ordinary people, literati, royalty or dignitaries.

At this time, if you don't accumulate virtue and do good deeds in advance, or even do a lot of bad things that are rich and heartless, others will inevitably take the opportunity to retaliate and hit people when they are down. If you are lucky enough to be anxious about a little kindness, you will return at the right time. In A Dream of Red Mansions, Jia's experience is like this. As the old saying goes, there must be Qing Yu.

Yan thought her purpose was to warn others to do more good deeds and not to bully others. Although retribution is a confusing thing, sometimes you have to believe in this evil.

Both Rong and Ning have experienced prosperity, and most people go with the flow. When the family is good, they run amok like parasites. When we fall apart, we even fight in the same room, regardless of the bottom line of human feelings.

After the Jia family's property was robbed, Wang Ren, Jia Qiang and others colluded to sell it to foreign vassals and became brothels. If granny Liu hadn't been sponsored by Wang Xifeng, she would have been the worst of the twelve women in A Dream of Red Mansions, but because she helped granny Liu occasionally, her daughter became the one with a good fate.

Grandma Liu knew that Qiaojie had been bought into the fireworks Liuxiang, and ran around in many ways, pulling her out of the abyss with her grandson. Regardless of the so-called concept of chastity, she arranged for her grandson Banel to marry Qiaojie. Compared with other women who have sad life experiences, this is definitely a blessing, much better than 996.

This was all done by Wang Xifeng. He gave Granny Liu twenty taels of silver, and Granny Liu went to Jia Fu for help. For Wang Xifeng, there are only nine Niu Yi hairs, and she doesn't even sneeze. Moreover, it was unintentional goodwill at that time, and it was completely pity and poverty alleviation. This is the so-called karma. At that time, Wang Xifeng didn't expect her family to go bankrupt, and neither did Granny Liu.

However, for an old peasant woman, getting help from others is definitely a great kindness. Moreover, for her, twenty taels of silver is not a small sum. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, a county grandfather earned only one year's salary, and 20 taels of silver was a windfall for ordinary people.

Of course, unlike dignitaries, she won't hit people when they are down. On the contrary, she will repay them in good faith. Compared with Wang Ren, who is a beast with a human face, Granny Liu is the moral high ground in the book at this time. She spares no effort to help the family of a criminal, if nothing else, just because she was helped at the beginning.

After Qiaojie was rescued from the fire pit, she arranged for her to marry her grandson. In granny Liu's view, this is her grandson's nature and she can marry Jia's daughter. At this point, she doesn't consider any secular concepts. First, she wants to protect Qiaojie. Second, she wants to find a good wife for her grandson. In the past, this was unimaginable.

The so-called secular prejudice is the time when the concept of chastity was strong in Ming and Qing Dynasties. Although dignitaries love to go to fireworks Liuxiang, no one will really marry a woman who comes out there. It's just a day of greed at most. For ordinary people, forget it, think about it, there is no spare money.

Moreover, the concept of chastity shaped by Neo-Confucianism in Ming and Qing Dynasties is only the concept of literati and bureaucrats. For ordinary people, morality is far more important than so-called chastity, and it is not practical for illusory things. It is important to find a good woman and understand her roots.

Although Qiaojie had an unfortunate experience, Granny Liu knew her past, which is why she dared to let her grandson marry her. Without secular prejudice, you will be grateful if you are practical.
