The story of Jia Tanchun and Jia Yingchun

Jia Tanchun is the main character in China's classic novel A Dream of Red Mansions. She is the illegitimate daughter of Jia Baoyu, the protagonist of the story, born to Aunt Zhao and her mother is Jia Huan. She is also the founder of Haitang Poetry Society, nicknamed Xiake, and lives in Qiushuangzhai in Daguan Garden. She is smart and capable, and infers from the judgment of twelve women that she will eventually marry the other party.

Evaluation of literary image

In A Dream of Red Mansions, the third young lady of the Jia family was born with a thin waist, a slender figure, an oval face and fine features.

The portrait of Jia Tanchun (19) is wonderful, with the essence of literary talent, but forget the customs when you see it. "Tanchun" is a visionary, ambitious and accomplished woman. She dares to say that she is aggressive and practical. Her best performance was to run the Grand View Garden during Xifeng's illness, which promoted the advantages and eliminated the disadvantages and was full of reform spirit. When the Grand View Garden was attacked again, it sensitively noticed the Jia family's signs of murder and luck, and denounced Wang Shan who made waves.

However, Tanchun's heart is also suffering from deep pain, and the distinction between ancient and vulgar is very clear. Tanchun is talented, but because it was written by Aunt Zhao, it caused a lot of embarrassment. This is not the tragedy of Tan Chun alone, but the tragedy of all illegitimate children in feudal times. According to moral standards, their biological mother is only half a master and still has the status of a slave. They can only recognize their first mother as their mother, so Jia Huan's excessive inferiority and Tan Chun's excessive self-esteem are all manifestations of illegitimate children being distorted by ethical codes since childhood.

Tan Chun is an advocate of poetry club and likes calligraphy. She is generous and talented, and she is the favorite of the granddaughters. When the Nan 'an people arrived at Jia's house, the old lady called Bao Daixiang to accompany them, and the old lady only called Tanchun. Tanchun's maids are also eloquent when waiting for books.

Tanchun in A Dream of Red Mansions

"A Dream of Red Mansions" wrote: Sailing through three thousand storms, the family of the same flesh and blood was thrown together. I'm afraid crying will damage my old age. Tell my parents not to worry. Poverty has been fixed since ancient times, and there is no chance of clutch. From now on, we will be divided into two places, each keeping safe. I want it back, don't get involved. -This shows that she left home late. In the last forty years, she continued to write that she married the son of Zhou Qiong, the general manager of Haimen and other places, but according to Cao Xueqin's original intention, she may have married a prince and become a princess. In the sixty-third chapter of the book, "Shouyi Hongfang Group gave a banquet", Tan Chun drew lots, and the sign said, "Whoever wins this sign is your husband. Let's congratulate you and have a drink together. " They laughed. "... we have a princess in our family, so you have become a princess. "exultation, exultation" may seem like a joke, but it may also be a foreshadowing. She painted a brand of apricot flowers, which read "Xian Pin in Yaochi", and introduced a poem by Gaochan in the Tang Dynasty, "An apricot rose out of the wall and planted in the clouds". According to the traditional customs of feudal times, "Sun" is the symbol of the emperor, and "Rising Apricot" should refer to the ladies around the emperor. According to the notes in the 556 Years of Qianlong read by Grandpa Shu, there is a queen in A Dream of Red Mansions and a princess outside (see Shu Pi's Poems with the Garden), or the early manuscripts do have the plot arrangement of Tanchun marrying a princess. However, according to Mr. Wang's anecdote, Tanchun was reconciled by the emperor and she was far from home.

Jia Yingchun, a person's name, mainly refers to a tragic figure created by Mr. Guo Xueqin, which originated from the novel A Dream of Red Mansions in Zhang Hui style, was born to Jia She and his concubine, and was listed as Miss Jia Fu. She is honest, incompetent, timid and has a nickname "Ermu". She is not only inferior to her sisters in guessing poems, but also knows how to give in and be bullied. Her pearls and jewels were gambled by servants, but she didn't pursue them. Others wanted to get it back for her, but she said, "I'd rather not. Why get angry?" Her father, Jia She, owed the Sun family 5,200 pieces of silver, so marrying her to the Sun family was actually paying her debts. Shortly after marriage, she was abused to death by Sun Shaozu.

Yingchun is Jia She's daughter, Jia Lian's half-sister and Jia She's concubine. The third time I wrote about her appearance, "The skin is slightly rich, the figure is in the middle, the cheeks are fresh and fragrant, the nose is greasy, gentle and silent, and amiable", but her character is weak and incompetent, as Xing Er said, "The second girl is nicknamed Ermu, and I don't know how to poke the needle." All women in the Jia family have one specialty. Jia's four seasons of spring correspond to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting respectively, and Chun is good at chess. Although it is rarely mentioned in the book, you can know it from the name of the servant girl. However, if she is a poet, she is mediocre. In dealing with people, she only knows how to give in and let others bully her. Her pearls and jewels were gambled by servants, but she didn't pursue them. Others tried to get them back for her, but she said, "I'd rather not."

If so, why are you angry? "At the time of copying the Grand View Garden, Qiqi, a girl from Yingchun, was engaged independently because of her secret contact with her cousin, and was expelled from the Grand View Garden. Siqi begged Yingchun for help in every way, but Yingchun was indifferent and didn't ask right and wrong. Ren Siqi was humiliated and driven out, and finally committed suicide by hitting the wall in a rage. Her father, Jia She, owed the Sun family 5,200 pieces of silver and married her to the so-called "grandson of a family friend" Sun Shaozu. In fact, he paid off her debts. "The wedding is very urgent, but this year has passed." Shortly after marriage, she was abused to death by Sun Shaozu. Therefore, Yingchun, a weak woman, is doomed to no good end: in the verdict of the first edition of Twelve Women in Jinling, she wrote: "My son is a Zhongshan Wolf, and if he succeeds, he will be mad. Golden bouquets are the quality of willows. They went to Huang Liang for a period of time. Later, it was written in the book that she was married to Sun Shaozu, a native of Datong. She was born as an official and is now the governor. "。 The man, nicknamed "Zhongshan Wolf", is a sadist who indulges in luxury and debauchery and abuses women. Poor Yingchun, Mrs. Jin, died in just one year under the torture of fists and feet.

In the Song Dynasty, there was a poem praising the spring flowers: Li is eye-catching, and the east wind enters Jiuchong City first. No one cares about huanghuateng, and the waves are famous all over the world. So the Spring Festival in A Dream of Red Mansions is actually just a name.

Marriage tragedy

87 version of the Spring Festival wedding

There are many reasons for the tragedy of the Spring Festival marriage. On the one hand, her father, Jia Di Ya, is indifferent to her daughter. On the other hand, the contradiction between her grandmother Jia She and her son Jia She led to her concern for Yingchun, and her younger brother Jia Lian had little affection for this sister. Finally, coupled with Yingchun's cowardice, she couldn't follow the maid Siqi, and she was killed by Sun Shao Group. It can be described as "mourning its misfortune and angering it." Yingchun's marriage tragedy also reflects the deterioration of Jia family from one side. People with fame and fortune like the group, if the Jia family is still strong, dare not abuse Yingchun even if they are presumptuous.
