Analysis of Characters in A Dream of Red Mansions

Jia Baoyu, the hero, is a strange and vulgar figure. The main feature of his character is rebellion. His behavior is "remote and perverse" and he is a rebel in feudal society. He despises fame and fortune and is unwilling to take the official career of "learning to be excellent and becoming an official". He hates stereotyped writing, insults the "traitors" who study and are officials, and is too lazy to meet them.

He doesn't like so-called "serious books", but prefers "miscellaneous books" and loves Peony Pavilion and The West Chamber. He also boldly questioned Zhu Cheng's Neo-Confucianism, thinking that "there are too many fabrications except the Four Books", which fully shows that he is the "rebellious son and two ministers" of the feudal monarchy.

He believes that "the beauty of mountains, rivers, the sun and the moon is only for daughters, and men with beards are just scum." Under the guidance of this shocking thought, Baoyu "wandered around at home" all day long, cherishing girls, their beauty, purity, exuberance and intelligence, their unfortunate experiences, their marriage to smelly men and the loss of their holy beauty. Jia Baoyu said that women were pearls before marriage, but after marriage, they lost their light and became dead pearls. If she is old, she will walk with a dirty man and become a dead fish eye. He even felt irreparable regret for having a man.

In his life, the most important thing is undoubtedly his love with Lin Daiyu. This love, on the one hand, began with rebellious character, on the other hand, it promoted the final formation of his rebellious character. This is the biggest and most important treason in his life history. In love, Bao and Dai both demanded the autonomy of marriage and deviated from the lifestyle of feudal society. They went further and further on the road of rebellion, which eventually led to their tragic ending.

Second, Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu is a talented and aloof woman. "It's a pity to stop, but it's a pity to praise." The jade belt hangs in the forest, and the golden hairpin buries the snow ",which is her portrayal. She lost her parents when she was a child and lived in a mansion in Guo Rong. Although the grandmother loves her, she is often sad because of her lofty personality and self-esteem.

She is sentimental and often tears for small things that others don't pay attention to. The scene of "Daiyu burying flowers" described in the novel highlights this point. Flowers bloom and fall, which is a natural scene, but she thinks of vicissitudes and impermanence of gathering and dispersing. She sighed for the fallen flowers. She took Baoyu as her confidant, watched The West Chamber together, and pinned all her hopes for life on Baoyu. She loves Baoyu deeply, but she can't get what she wants. So, because she tried to fight for her position but failed many times, she felt sorry for herself and sobbed where no one was there.

Her inner world seems elusive, but it is often exposed. If Baoyu "offended" her, she would be angry, shed tears and even get sick for him. On the surface, in fact, I still miss him very much and find an excuse to see him. When Baoyu was ill, she was very sad and cried for it. However, due to the shackles of feudal ethics, she could not express herself or help herself. In the end, she died of depression on the day Baochai got married and failed to do so.

Cao Xueqin loves Lin Daiyu, everything about her, her smiles and tears, her joys and sorrows in her works. It is precisely because of this unforgettable love that he vividly interpreted Daiyu's infatuation with Baoyu and portrayed it vividly, creating a glorious image of "knowing from the heart" and anti-feudal ethics for the world.

Third, Wang Xifeng

There is another unusual person in Fu Rong, and she is Wang Xifeng. Everyone knows Wang Xifeng's malice. As the "general manager" of Fu Rong, she plays politics. She killed Gary with a deadly trap and plotted to force You Sanjie to death. She was mean by nature and finally killed the whole family. Her character is fierce, and I don't forget to point this out everywhere in my article, just like when she had a big fight with that whore on her birthday and asked the old lady for help, which was enough to see. But after all, she is very capable. She has the final say in all the affairs of Fu Rong, and she is good at catering to the old lady and won her favor. And envy it.

Fourth, tanchun

Jia Tanchun, Jia Zheng's daughter, has Zhuo Chao's talent, extraordinary wisdom, profound knowledge and far-sighted vision without Daiyu's delicacy and pity, Baochai's cleverness and Xiangyun's liveliness and cheerfulness, which was brilliantly displayed in the fifth and sixth chapters of "Exploring the Spring to Promote Advantages and Eliminate Disadvantages, Chastity and Baochai's Small Understanding".

Wang Xifeng was bedridden due to illness, so Tan Chun, Baochai, Li Zhi and others took charge of the housework. During this period, Tan Chun audited the accounts at home and found that the money allocated to each room overlapped with the money allocated to the comprador, so he came up with a way to kill two birds with one stone and discussed it with Baochai and others. "I went to Lai everyone in that year and chatted with the girls there, only to know that the fish and shrimp with bamboo shoots they ate were still counted in one year, with a total of 200 at the end of the year." Overlapping monthly payments has long been a disadvantage of Jia family, and no one in the garden can point out one thing or two. Tanchun was inspired by Lai's family and finally put forward a good solution according to his own situation. Isn't it enough to see her ability and ability to handle affairs? In the present words, it is to analyze the quality of comprehensive problem solving. Who blames Baochai for saying, "Well said! Although you are a daughter, you don't know these things. " Baochai said with a smile, "You've only been working for two days, and you're insatiable, and you're betting on Zhu. Going out again to see such advantages and disadvantages, even Confucius is becoming more and more vain. " Tan Chun listened, but solemnly replied, "You are an ordinary person, but you haven't seen Ji Zishu. On that day, Ji Ziyun said,' Those who climb the fields of wealth, those who are in traffic, those who are not good at words, recite the Tao of Confucius and Mencius ...' Did an ordinary daughter say such brilliant words? You should have a political vision!

In episode 56, Tanchun showed her talent in Zhuo Chao with her determination and skills, but Baochai's joking words led to her political remarks, which really left people with endless memories and were amazing!

Verb (abbreviation of verb) Xue Baochai

Butterflies fly around the courtyard and the east wind blows several times. The fan shadow shakes the jade wrist, and the powder marks are oblique and wet. Occasionally amused by the game, but kept in the dark. It's strange to whisper in the pavilion, in case someone suddenly opens the window. Xue Baochai plays an important role in A Dream of Red Mansions. She was the guardian of various feudal ceremonies, and she suffered greatly. She has a good relationship with her family and is deeply loved by the audience. Her personality includes Wang Xifeng's smoothness, Lin Daiyu's caution and the feudal bondage completely opposite to Jia Baoyu. For example, every forty-eight times, Aunt Xue said, "... it's not enough to wait on Ying Er, so don't buy you a maid. Baochai said, "I don't know the details of what I bought. If I make a mistake, spending money is not naughty. It's time to find out. People who know the place of origin will buy it back. "This shows that she is very careful. Another example is Xiangling's way to Baochai: "I was going to tell my wife, so I'll go with the girl when I go. "I think I was afraid that my wife was too suspicious to say that I was greedy to play in the garden, but you did it!" Baochai said with a smile, "I know you have envied this garden for two days, but there is no time ... so I took the opportunity to go up for a year. I have many companions and won your heart." This shows that Baochai knows her family's heart and is smooth. In a word, Xue Baochai is a man deeply bound by feudalism.

Sixth, granny Liu

There are more than 400 characters in A Dream of Red Mansions, and all of them are lifelike. Even the minor characters with little pen and ink write like people, such as hearing their voices. Take granny Liu for example.

Granny Liu from the countryside came to Jia's house, and Xifeng directed a farce. When eating in Jia's house, the servant girl only picked up a pigeon eggs and put it there. Grandma Liu said shamelessly, "Old cow, old cow, eats like a cow." At this time, Lao Liu's straightforward and quick-talking peasant character was vividly displayed. Then granny Liu said that "the eggs are handsome and small", which means that she has little knowledge and only knows how to eat. Later, pigeon eggs rolled to the ground, and Granny Liu hurried to pick it up. The image of the peasant family in her works is hard, diligent and poor, which is in sharp contrast with the aristocratic and rich Jia family, reflecting the huge gap between the feudal bureaucrats and the poor and satirizing the feudal society at that time. Finally, she wrote couplets with all the girls in vulgar language, which showed that she had no culture and made everyone laugh.

In a word, Granny Liu's feudal, poor and ridiculous image is fully reflected through the author's pen and ink.

Seven, Qingwen

Qingwen is another rebel of feudal ethics in Jiafu. His naturally rebellious, outspoken, willful and fearless writing presents readers with another distinctive character image.

Qingwen didn't humble herself because Baoyu was her master, and tolerated his unreasonable troubles, but argued for it. Example: "I don't feel bad about how many treasures are broken on weekdays. Today, a fan caused such a big problem. " A fan is like this today. "Why come? If you don't like us, send us and then adjust. " "I'm a fool, where to accompany the fruit to eat? It will be even worse if you smash the plate again! " . I saw her rebellious spirit. However, xiren's kind advice was ironically refuted by her, which shows her frankness. And she tore the fan for fun, regardless of other people's opinions, and she was happy alone. He won't pay attention to what comments she will make afterwards and what impact it will have. There are also a few words: "I dare not provoke you", "If you say so, just take the fan and I will tear it" and so on. These sour and bad words all show her willfulness and rebellious spirit!

It is also this series of languages that make Qingwen's unique role leap from the page.

Eight, Pinger

To say that the maid in a dream of red mansions is the most beautiful, Pinger has to. Because I married Jia Lian, my status is different from other ordinary maids. However, the fact that she was born in a humble background will never be erased, which also determines that Pinger's position in the Grand View Garden will not be too high.

Pinger is talented, but she has a master-servant relationship with Wang Xifeng, which seems a bit "dwarfed". However, Pinger helped Xifeng a lot in daily affairs, so Wang Xifeng was also very kind to Pinger.

However, although she followed Wang Xifeng to drink spicy food, she also had some disappointments. For example, Pinger actually had an affair with Jia Lian, but with Wang Xifeng around, she didn't dare to act too much. Because she had been married for a long time and was infertile, she took care of Jia Lian more and prevented him from getting too close to other women. Of course, on the surface, all this is not obvious. So sometimes Jia Lian and Pinger secretly make out while Wang Xifeng is away, and when Xi-feng finds out, she has to be sarcastic.

However, Pinger is kind. Jia Lian philandered outside and hooked up with Second Sister You, but Wang Xifeng hypocritically went to take Second Sister You back, but did something bad behind her back, which caused Second Sister You's formed fetus to fall off, and Second Sister You hanged herself because of shame. During this period, Pinger was the only person in Jia's family who was kind to her. She always takes good care of him, and she will die well. This shows that Pinger's heart is very kind. Such a lovely girl, who can not be tempted?

Pinger didn't fall behind in Jiafu and became a nun. She escaped into an empty door all her life and has nothing to do with the secular world since then. Alas, Pinger, poor, pathetic Pinger!
