Interesting Talk about Red Mansions 92: The unicorn appears for the first time, Jia’s mother has a hint, a dream comes true, and the tragic prophecy of the end of Jia’s family

Subtitle: Jia Mu suddenly mentioned Jin Qilin and led Xue Baochai to tell Shi Xiangyun. What was her intention?

Jia Mu came to Qingxu Temple originally to be happy. As a result, she encountered three troublesome things that made her unhappy

First, Wang Xifeng beat the young Taoist priest in front of Qingxu Temple, which represented that the descendants of the Jia family had lost all their benevolence. The Jia family has no future.

Second, Taoist Zhang does not respect Jia’s mother and looks down on the descendants of Rong Guogong, which shows the mentality of the old officials of Jia’s family towards the new master. Being disrespectful to a minister is ultimately a recipe for death.

Third, the aftermath of Jia Yuanchun’s Dragon Boat Festival gift also affected Qingxu Guan. Taoist Zhang’s marriage proposal was clearly sent by Yuanchun, telling Jia’s mother that she was supporting a good marriage.

Mother Jia was naturally not happy about these things, and immediately "rebuked" Taoist Zhang. Using "The monk said not to marry early", he put Taoist Zhang's hot face onto his cold ass.

Jia Mu’s words are not nice to hear. How can we not understand that we are all human beings? Wang Xifeng jumped out to smooth things over at that time, complaining that Taoist Zhang didn't send the eldest sister a charm on time, but he still had the nerve to ask her for the goose-yellow satin.

Wang Xifeng's words not only interrupted the bad atmosphere between Jia Mu and Zhang Taoist, but also reminded Zhang Taoist of their relationship.

Of course Taoist Zhang would borrow the donkey from Poxia and took over with a big smile. He did not say that he had forgotten or was not paying attention, but that it was delayed because of Jia Yuanchun's wedding ceremony. The implication is also clear that it was Jia Yuanchun who instigated him. To put it bluntly, "I am not responsible for your family's affairs"!

Taoist Zhang went up the steps to get the name talisman and brought it to him on a plate. Wang Xifeng also doesn't let others do it. You see, she spoke for Jia Mu against the old Taoist priest, and the two sides kept talking back and forth.

Taoist Zhang’s “giving of alms” and the Jia family’s “giving of alms” are essentially the relationship between the two parties in reality. Wang Xifeng used this joke to remind Taoist Zhang not to forget his origins in the Jia family. Everything now is given by the Jia family. Since you can give it, you can also not give it!

Of course Jia Mu was happy when she heard this, and called Wang Xifeng, "Monkey, monkey, you are not afraid of going to tongue-pulling hell."

Jia Mu called Sister Feng "Monkey", which was a common name for the elderly. When she was a child, the elders in the family also called their children "Monkey", which meant that they did not understand the rules and were naughty. However, Mother Jia also made a pun in "Pull out the tongue to hell", mocking Taoist Zhang for not being too talkative!

At this time, special attention should be paid to Wang Xifeng’s words: “We men have nothing to do with each other. Why does he always say that I should accumulate negative energy, otherwise my life will be short!”

She said that she had nothing to do with Taoist Zhang. Irrelevant means that the relationship between the two parties is close. Eliminate the confrontational atmosphere just now.

However, Taoist Zhang is mature and has a vicious vision. He often asked Wang Xifeng to "accumulate yin and stall" to talk about the root cause. In "A Dream of Red Mansions", it is Wang Xifeng who does not accumulate negative emotions. Cao Xueqin used Li Wan's lyrics and music to compare Li Wan's luck and Wang Xifeng's misfortune, which originated from the word "yin stall". Sister Feng's life was tragic only because she was too vicious and vicious in her dealings. Don’t mention it.

Taoist Zhang explained that when he came out with the plate, he did not touch the name talisman with his hands, and secondly, he invited some fellow Taoists to attend the grand ceremony and perform rituals to pray for blessings. These high priests all heard that Jia Baoyu was born with jade in his body and wanted to pay their respects.

Jia Baoyu was "born with jade", which was auspicious at that time. Lin Daiyu said it was a "rare thing", Xue Baochai also wanted to see it, King Beijing thought it was strange, and Taoist Zhang's "comrades" had heard about it for a long time.

The psychic jade is the Jia family’s signature piece, so the Taoist priests wanted to see it so they gave it to Taoist Zhang.

As a result, the old Taoist priest went away not long after carrying the "jade", and when he came back he brought a plate of golden, pearls, jade, and jade ritual objects. These old Taoists are all very rich, and it is difficult to give Taoist Zhang face with nothing. After seeing other people's jade, they gave some gifts in return, and they all came back with a plate.

What Taoist Zhang did was to show the Jia family what he was capable of: Don’t think your family is okay.

First of all, Jia Yuanchun's one hundred and twenty taels of silver could not buy this plate of magical artifacts.

Secondly, the plate he brought was not "alms" but "alms". This plate was his feedback.

Finally, Taoist Zhang has the ability to make all the Taoists respond to his call, and he is not empty-handed even if he wants to show his face. He also gives away the magic weapons that they carry with them. They are not ordinary Taoist priests, which shows that he is really powerful.

Especially when Jia Mu refused to accept her politeness, Taoist Zhang smiled and said: "This is their little respect, and the trail cannot block it. If the old lady doesn't stay, wouldn't she let them see that the trail is meager? "It doesn't seem like he was born under the family."

The more Taoist Zhang mentioned his family background, and the more he showed his great ability, the more he showed that he cared about this, but the Jia family always hinted that he was born under the family. "Taoist Zhang has long been unhappy!

The two sides have been going back and forth with guns and sticks, and there has never been a break. Of course, what is reflected is the conflict and discord of interests.

Wang Xifeng assisted Jia Mu with purpose. Jia Baoyu did it purely unintentionally, but the harm was even greater. Taoist Zhang brought a plate of things, just to show off. When Jia Baoyu heard that he wanted to reward people, he was not interested in it, so he took it out and distributed it to the poor. When Jia Mu heard that it was what she wanted, she smiled and agreed.

The old Taoist became anxious upon hearing this. How could he explain to his fellow Taoists that you gave it directly to the poor? That's too shameless and offends people. He quickly stopped Jia Baoyu, and then completely stopped.

Here Jia Zhen came over to report that she had prepared three "plays" to be performed in front of God. They are "The Story of the White Snake", "The Bed Full of Wat" and "Nan Ke Meng".

Jia Mu listened to both the first and second books, and she was especially satisfied with "Man Bed Wat", which tells the story of the high-ranking family officials and their generous salaries. Just hearing "Nan Ke Meng" made Jia Mu speechless. "Nan Ke is a dream", no matter how prosperous the scene is, it will ultimately be a dream in vain.

These three plays in Qingxuguan are a portrayal of the rise, prosperity and decline of the Jia family. At this time, the Jia family was "making flowers ablaze with brocade and burning oil," so this warning sign was very unlucky.

Jia Mu was not in the mood to watch the show, she just looked at things like Jia Baoyu. Suddenly a golden unicorn caught her eyes. We all know that almost everyone in Qingxu Guan has been working on their imaginations for a long time. The appearance of the golden unicorn at this time is of course the key to the rest of the story and has special significance.

Jia Mu mentioned Shi Xiangyun’s golden unicorn and revealed an old story. Shi Xiangyun and Jia Baoyu were the earliest "golden and jade marriage". Jia's mother must have had the intention to betroth Shi Xiangyun to Jia Baoyu in her early years, and the two families were truly well-matched. It was only because of Lin Daiyu's appearance that she gave up.

Jia Mu's "bringing up old things again" at this time is also to let the Xue family compare themselves with Shi Xiangyun, which is also worthy of the saying of "golden and jade good marriage".

Of course, Jin Qilin corresponds to Shi Xiangyun. As soon as this golden unicorn came out, Shi Xiangyun had two. Qilin does not mean marriage, but its greatest meaning is "Qilin gives birth to a child". Two golden unicorns correspond to two children. I still remember that when I explained the marriage between Feng Ziying and Shi Xiangyun above, it was said that "a golden unicorn lurking on a white-headed double star" was a metaphor for Shi Xiangyun's two children. It is also compared to Feng Ziying's drinking order "My daughter is happy and has twins for her first child."

Shi Xiangyun did not attend the Qingxu Temple ritual ceremony, but the appearance of Jin Qilin also foreshadowed her engagement at this time. Combining the previous article with Feng Ziying's invitation to entertain guests to compose the song "Sorrow and Joy" corresponding to the song "Sorrow in Music", and the following article with "Golden Qilin Fu Baishou Double Star", it can be proven that Shi Xiangyun's betrothed is Feng Ziying (see the previous article for details).

Jia Mu was very angry at Qingxu Temple, especially because all the dignitaries in the capital came to give gifts when they heard about the Jia family's wedding ceremony. She stopped coming the next day. I didn't want the turmoil caused by Jin Qilin to make Jia's mother at home uneasy and bring out all the emotions she had been feeling for the past few days. So, what happened? If you want to know what happens next, let’s watch the breakdown next time!
