Chapter 11 9. Every bird comes from the last days——Wang Xifeng

Wang Xifeng is not a good leader.Why? No, it's not because she is harsh and exploitative, but because she doesn't know how to communicate. Perhaps you will think that I am pretending to be shocking. It is obvious that Wang Xifeng is the best at socializing. She is slick, long-sleeved and good at dancing. I am talking about her kind of person.She joked and joked to her immediate boss, Jia Mu, was considerate to Jia Baoyu, the leader of the company, and was courteous and courteous to the sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law of the middle-level leaders. No, not good enough.Wang Xifeng is not as thoughtful as you might imagine. She has exhausted all her organs, but she has neglected a very important part of the management structure—the honorary members of the board of directors: Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Youshi and others.

Although Mrs. Xing has no power and Mrs. Wang is incompetent, they are the elders of the Jia family after all. It is the top management of the company, even if they do not participate in the specific management, they still have the right to discuss and vote. In the book, Mrs. Xing's suspicion of Wang Xifeng is clearly written. She once said in front of Yingchun: "You are always a good brother and sister-in-law. You are a very impressive couple. Second Master Lian and Grandma Feng, the couple cover up. The sky is full of sunshine, and everything is thoughtful, and I don’t care about this girl.” After saying a word, the person replied: “The second grandma Lian is here.” Mrs. Xing sneered twice, and ordered people to go out and said, “Please go by yourself. To recuperate, I don't need him to take care of me here." The disgust and jealousy were beyond words.

The real reason is just like what Xiaosi Xing'er said to the Youshi sisters: "When you mention our grandma, you are vicious in your heart and sharp in your mouth... Except for the old lady and the wife, there is no one in the whole family who doesn't hate him, it's just because of face. Qing'er is afraid of him... Even his serious mother-in-law and eldest wife dislike him, saying that he's a "flying bird" and a nest of black hens. He doesn't care about his own affairs, but makes a fuss for others. If it wasn't for him The old lady is in the lead, she has already called him."

Onlookers can see that although Xing Er is the most low-level employee, she can see clearly that Mrs. Xing alienates Sister Feng because of two points: one is jealousy and the other is hatred.Jealousy is because Sister Feng's power as a daughter-in-law is greater than that of the eldest daughter-in-law who is a mother-in-law; hatred is because Sister Feng refuses to court her own house, and only knows how to please the old lady and obey Mrs. Wang. However, although Mrs. Wang is Xifeng's real aunt, and has handed over the power of housekeeping to Sister Feng as an agent, it does not mean that she completely trusts Wang Xifeng.She uses her on the one hand, and guards against her on the other, and her psychology is also out of jealousy.Jealous of Sister Feng's ability to be higher than himself, more favored by Jia Mu, and more praised by everyone than himself; hate her for being arrogant, arrogant, and even not giving her face.

Zhou Rui's youngest son spread steamed buns all over the floor at Sister Feng's birthday party. Sister Feng didn't discuss with anyone, so she wanted to expel him, and ordered people to tell the two houses that they were not allowed to hire him.It was Mammy Lai who helped intercede: "Is he right? Beat him, scold him, make him change his ways, and throw him away. He is nothing compared to our family's son. He is now his wife's companion. Grandma I just kicked him out, but my wife didn't look good. According to me, grandma taught him a few tricks, as a warning to him next time, so he should keep it. Don't look at his mother, but look at his wife."

——Even the ignorant old mother knows how to avoid taboos, but Sister Feng doesn't care, so how can Madam Wang not hold grudges in her heart? Mrs. Wang's house was stolen, and the maids refused to admit to each other, so Sister Feng made up her mind, "According to my idea, bring all the maids from the wife's room. Although it is inconvenient to torture them, I just ask them to kneel on the tiles." Under the sun, don’t give them tea or rice. If you don’t say kneeling for a day, you’re made of iron, and you can’t do anything for a day.” ——Knowing that it is inconvenient for the wife's girl to torture without authorization, but still insists on torture and interrogation on her own, is it not a crime knowingly?

Fortunately, it was Ping'er who persuaded him. However, time and time again, there were always things that Wang Xifeng unintentionally did that everyone didn't guard against and couldn't stop, but Mrs. Wang saw it in her eyes and kept it in her heart. So what will Mrs. Wang do? The first is to check accounts.For example, asking Xifeng abruptly: "A while ago, I heard someone complaining in a daze, saying that a penny was short. What's the reason?" It was like reminding Sister Feng: I don't trust you very much, and mine Ear Baoshen understands, don't try to play tricks under my nose.

The second is to take advantage of strength to refute face.Because the gatekeeper's mother-in-law offended You Shi, the head of the Ning Mansion, Sister Feng ordered her to be tied up and waited for You Shi to punish her.Mrs. Xing heard this, and intentionally shamed Sister Feng in front of everyone, and said eccentrically: "I heard that Second Mistress was angry last night and sent Steward Zhou's wife to tie up the two wives, but I don't know what crime she committed. Argue me I shouldn't ask for favors, I think the old lady has a good life, and she is so cruel that she gives money and shemi to the poor, and our family is tormenting others first. Don't look at my face, just look at the old lady, and let them go Let it go." After speaking, he turned around and left without even giving Sister Feng a chance to explain.Sister Feng was ashamed and angry. Because Mrs. Wang asked about it, she hurriedly explained the reason, and said: "Yesterday, because the people here offended the sister-in-law in that mansion, I was afraid that the sister-in-law was suspicious, so I let him go." You don't want to offend me." Who knows that Youshi didn't appreciate it, and just smiled: "Even I don't know. You have too much trouble." Mrs. Wang also said: "What your wife said is true. Even Brother Zhen and his daughter-in-law are not outsiders, and they don't need these vain gifts. The old lady's future is important, so let them go." Then, he stopped listening to Sister Feng's nagging, and personally ordered, and then ordered someone to let the two go. mother-in-law.Sister Feng was so disheartened and unable to say anything, she had to hide in her room and cry secretly.

——Everyone only thinks that Sister Feng is very strong, but they don't know that she is in the middle class and suffers more than anyone else.Out of ten people, even if you deal with nine of them, if you can't take care of one of them, you will gossip too much, after all, the merit is not worth it. It is understandable for Mrs. Xing to have trouble with Sister Feng like this, but why is Mrs. Wang indifferent to Sister Feng?Just because she also wanted to take the opportunity to kill Sister Feng's prestige, she didn't want to see her live too proudly, and she wanted to find some excuse to save her face, and it was best that she didn't find this excuse by herself.Now, using Mrs. Xing and You's mouth to convict Sister Feng, it's enough to add fuel to the flames, so what else is there to say?

This "release" incident was a perfect collaboration between Mrs. Xing Wang and Mrs. Feng, which dealt a heavy blow to Sister Feng. And the next "search for people" incident was the cooperation between the two directors again, and it even stepped down Sister Feng.This is the real reason for "copying and inspecting the Grand View Garden". The silly girl picked up an embroidered spring pouch in the garden. The pattern showed a man and a woman hugging each other naked. It was a private gift from a man and a woman.Mrs. Xing found out, and immediately sealed it up and sent it to Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang angrily took it and came to Sister Feng's room to ask the teacher: "Of course it was that Lian'er didn't grow into dirty seeds. You are kind. Treat it as a family." It's a stubborn thing, young people have private interests in their boudoirs, and you still rely on me!"

Sister Feng was full of grievances, but the crime was too great, so she had to kneel down and cry in tears, and confessed clearly, explaining that the spring bag was not her own.Mrs. Wang was speechless, but she concealed and said: "I also know that you are from the family of a young lady, so why should you be so frivolous, but I am impatient, and I will use this to provoke you." ——Who says Mrs. Wang is dull and has no ideas?Sophistry is better than anyone else.Regardless of whether the spring bag belonged to Sister Feng, or whether Sister Feng's confession was justified or not, in short, he preemptively killed Sister Feng's prestige before speaking, and then gave orders, ordering Sister Feng to lead people to search at night.Sister Feng knew it was wrong, but because she had already lost the opportunity, she could no longer make up her mind calmly, so she had to obey. This is the third trick Mrs. Wang used to deal with Sister Feng.To make a fuss over a molehill, it is good to remind Sister Feng from time to time: Who is the real authority behind the scenes? This hard work made Sister Feng more and more discouraged, so she fell ill before the work was over, and she will be raised for more than half a year before she recovers. During this time, Li Wan, Xue Baochai, and Tanchun were promoted smoothly and replaced Sister Feng as housekeeper.Of these three people, one is Mrs. Wang's eldest son's wife, the other is Mrs. Wang's youngest son's daughter-in-law, and the third is a nominal daughter--although she is not her own, she has been wholeheartedly flattering her for many years. Among these three people, any one who can take the opportunity to grow up and really replace Sister Feng is far easier to control than Sister Feng.At least, these three people are closer to him than Wang Xifeng. The senior management of many companies today are very good at this method of "reserving backup". replaced go. There are also some bosses who adhere to the principle of "prefer excess over excellence": it doesn't matter if the middle-level leaders can't do it, the important thing is to be obedient.It is better to find a wood who is not capable but not causing trouble; do not choose a thorny head who is capable but too individual. Bosses like Mrs. Wang who have no skills themselves believe in this principle even more.That's why Li Wan stood out. Li Wan, the young widowed and silent elder sister-in-law, usually does not show her face, she seems to be the most peaceful logistics supervisor, and she is only responsible for leading the girls to read and write.This is an easy job, but it is a lot of oil. Sister Feng calculated an account for her, saying that her salary is higher than anyone else, and the bonus at the end of the year is double. A poetry club, he said he would be the host, but turned around and brought people to Sister Feng's house to ask for funds.When I asked for money, but didn't see any expenses, when I started the club again, I still asked everyone to join in. However, looking at the entire Grand View Garden and Rongguo Mansion, no one dared to speak ill of Li Wan, let alone point out her corruption; but everyone talked about Wang Xifeng being stingy and filling his own pockets.why? It was because Li Wan was low-key enough to pretend to be pitiful, while Sister Feng was too flamboyant and proud, so people were jealous of her and wished to see her fall.That's why Mrs. Wang knew that Li Wan was incompetent, but still gave her a chance, hoping that she could replace Sister Feng. As the head of the Ningguo Mansion, Youshi is on the same level as Sister Feng in terms of professional title and seniority.She had a good relationship with Sister Feng, but because her younger sister You Erjie hooked up with Jia Lian, even she was hated by Sister Feng.That Sister Feng came to Ningguo Mansion, rubbed and tortured Youshi, and scolded you face to face for a long time, without showing any mercy.Although the two of them appeared to be in harmony on the surface, they had a rift in their hearts. Although You Shi did not want to take revenge openly, as long as there was a chance, he would definitely not make Sister Feng look good.This is why Mrs. You fell into the trap and made sarcastic remarks when Mrs. Xing ran on Sister Feng. Later, Jia's Mansion was raided, Ningguo Mansion's crimes were obviously worse than Rongguo Mansion's, but the person who died tragically in Prison Temple was only Sister Feng, why?The last forty chapters were lost, but the reason can be imagined. Naturally, the ship sank and everyone stepped on it, so Youshi probably didn't play a good role, right? In Sister Feng's verdict, she said that she "was too clever to calculate Qingqing's life." However, thinking about it, Sister Feng was not very good at calculating. Counting people's ulterior motives, the master's achievements will be overwhelmed.No wonder she died unexpectedly. The first eighty chapters of the CCP described in detail four major birthdays: Baochai, Xifeng, Baoyu, and Jiamu. And every birthday, there are many prophecy-like plots: At Baochai's 15th birthday banquet, Baoyu first listened to the prose and realized Zen, which hinted at his destiny to become a monk; Qunfang of Yihong Court held a night banquet to celebrate Baoyu's birthday, and everyone took advantage of the name game, which is a typical prophecy; Jiamu's 80th birthday banquet is the last birthday in the book. Under the bustling surface, "the mist of sadness spreads all over Hualin". . Then, the author spent a lot of ink and wrote the forty-third chapter "Let's take pleasure in leisure and save money to celebrate birthdays without love and temporarily pick up soil for incense" and the forty-fourth chapter "An Unexpected Fengjie Splashed Vinegar and Be Overjoyed Pinger Makeup" for two full days. What kind of information and hints did the Sister Feng's birthday party back to us reveal to us? First of all, it is the mystery in the conversation between Sister Feng and Youshi. Jia's mother made the decision and asked everyone to follow the example of Xiaojiazi and join forces to celebrate Sister Feng's birthday, and then handed over the matter to Youshi. Discussed in the room, jokingly said: "Look how excited he is! I advise you to keep some. If it is too full, it will be poured out." This phrase "splash it out when it is too full" has the same meaning as what Qin Keqing said earlier when she reported her dream to Sister Feng, "When the moon is full, it will lose money, and when the water is full, it will overflow". And Keqing is the daughter-in-law of Youshi. .How do you know that this is not the second time the author leaked the secret through Youshi's mouth? The next day, when Youshi and Sister Feng settled accounts, they saw that Li Wan, who Sister Feng had promised to replace, was short of a share, and scolded: "I see that your master is so meticulous, where can you get the money! It can't be used, and I will bring the coffin tomorrow." Let me go here." Geng Chen wrote this in two lines: "This statement is true, and the rest will be short-lived. Youshi is also capable of doing things, but it is a pity that he cannot persuade his husband to manage the family. It is a pity!" It is prophecy. When they were at the banquet, when You Shi and Sister Feng were toasting, they joked and said, "I tell you, it's so easy to experience what happened today. After that, I know it will be as terrible as today? I'm trying my best to hold the funeral." Just two cups." Zhiyan added another criticism: "Xianxian's words are followed by the words, which is hurtful. The so-called 'a feast is hard to come back'." ——It's "spill it out when it's too full", it's "bring it in the coffin tomorrow", and it's "the feast is hard to come by", reminding again and again: the good life of Jia's mansion It's about to pass, and this bad wind will start to blow from the two inner leaders of Ning Rong Mansion, You Shi and Sister Feng. In Keqing's judgment, there was a sentence in the original sentence that "everything is wrong, and the beginning of the quarrel is really peaceful", and the death of Qin Keqing, the grandson-in-law of the Ningfu, was arranged by Sister Feng; It was caused by one hand; once these two "provocations" of the Ningguo Mansion break out, Sister Feng will definitely be responsible for it-maybe it is because of this that the book uses the mouth of You Shi to warn Sister Feng again and again? Another discordant sound at Sister Feng's birthday banquet came from Baoyu. On the day of the Jia Mansion's feast, Baoyu went to the Narcissus Nunnery to offer sacrifices to the golden bracelet, and when he came back, he met the jade bracelet "sitting alone under the eaves of the corridor and weeping", writing a scene of desolation in the midst of the flowers. It wasn't until the matter of Ping'er's make-up came out that the author revealed the answer: "Baoyu has never done her best in front of Ping'er—and Ping'er is a very smart, handsome, and classy girl, and she can't compare with that girl." Vulgar and stupid thing--deep hatred. Today is Jin Chuan's birthday, so I am not happy all day. I don't want to be behind and cause this incident. Le Ye." It turns out that Sister Feng has the same birthday as Jin Chuan who jumped into the well. What does this mean?Apart from the fact that both of them are members of the "Golden School", what do they have in common?Could it be that the play "The Male Sacrifice" is just an allusion to Jia Lian's sacrifice to You Er later? The affair between Jia Lian and Bao's family was broken by Sister Feng. After a big scene, Jia's mother came forward to mediate the next day and ordered Jia Lian and Sister Feng to make amends. "Jia Lian heard this, and saw Sister Feng standing there, without makeup, her eyes were swollen from crying, she didn't apply makeup, and her yellow face, she felt more pitiful and cute than usual." Zhi Yan specially commented on the back of "yellow face": "It's a wonderful and wonderful article. This sentence will lay the root of the disease. It's a pity that the author has worked so hard to write." Song Qi, Zhang Ailing's former friend, not only did not "take a cursory look", but also wrote an article entitled "Wang Xifeng's Incurable Disease", and concluded one by one that described Xifeng's disease in the book. Described twice, confessed twice, unable to participate in Jia Jing's funeral due to illness, and moon appreciation in the Mid-Autumn Festival; borrowed Jia Rong's mouth, Ping'er and Yuanyang's mouth, Baoyu and Fengjie's mouth three times in total. Various writing methods are used at intervals, It does not show any traces, making it easy for people to read, which shows the author's deep intentions and strong skills." There are so many lines in the article, and the foreshadowing is so grand, it seems that Sister Feng cannot escape the fate of "died". However, the matter is not over yet. In the forty-fifth chapter of "Jin Ranqi's Mutual Analysis of Jinlan Language, Wind and Rain, Wind and Rain, and Wind and Rain Poems", there is another small incident made up by Mammy Lai—— (Nurse Lai) Fang got up to leave, but when he saw Zhou Rui's family, he remembered something, because he said, "But there is one more word to ask grandma, what did sister-in-law's son do this week? Why don't you kick him out?" Hearing this, he smiled and said, "It's exactly what I want to tell your daughter-in-law. I have forgotten many things. Sister-in-law Lai went back and told your old man that the two houses are not allowed to take him in. Let him go." Lai everyone had to agree. with. Zhou Rui's family hurriedly knelt down and begged.Nanny Lai hurriedly said: "What's the matter, tell me to comment." Sister Feng said: "It was my birthday the day before yesterday, and I hadn't had any wine in it, so he got drunk first. The old lady sent a gift, and he didn't say he was there." He was sitting upside down and swearing at people outside, but he didn't bring in the gifts. When two women came in, he took the little ones in and carried them in. The little ones were fine, the box he was holding fell out of his hand, and he spilled it all. Yard steamed buns. People went, sent Caiming to talk about him, but he scolded Caiming. Such a lawless bastard, why don’t you get kicked out!” Lai Nanny laughed: “What should I do? This. Grandma listened to me: Is he right? Beating him, scolding him, making him change his ways, and kicking him out are absolutely impossible. He is no better than the son of our family, and now he is his wife’s companion. After seeing him, the wife's face is not good-looking. According to me, grandma taught him a few tricks, as a warning to keep it next time. Don't look at his mother, but also look at his wife." When Sister Feng heard about it, she asked Lai everyone Said: "In this case, beat him with forty sticks, and he will not be allowed to drink in the future." Lai everyone agreed.Zhou Rui's family kowtowed, and they wanted to kowtow to Lai Mama again, Lai everyone pulled Fang. Since the phrase "Even if there is an iron threshold of a thousand years, there must be a steamed bun", we all know that the meaning of "steamed bun" in the book is extraordinary.Baoyu said: "It's strange that our family temple is called 'Tiekan Temple'." I'm afraid I have to add another sentence: "The strange way 'Shuiyue Temple' is also called 'Mantou Temple'." Of course, the explanation of "Mantouan" in the book is "because the steamed buns made in his temple are good, so he got this nickname", but this is just a lie, and its real meaning is nothing more than reminding people about the relationship between "iron threshold" and The Buddhist gatha of "earth steamed bun". So, what does it mean that Zhou Rui's son "scattered steamed buns all over the yard" on Sister Feng's birthday? This will focus on Zhou Rui's family. The verdict on Wang Xifeng's "one obedience, two orders and three people wood" in the booklet "Jinling Twelve Beauties" has always been an unsolved mystery on the subject of red studies. Some people say that this refers to the three stages in Wang Xifeng's married life: at the beginning, Jia Lian obeyed her, then gave orders to her, and finally divorced her. The two characters "renmu" together form the character "Xiu", which is what Zhipi called "the method of dismantling characters". Some people also said that the two orders combined into one word "cold", referring to Liu Xianglian, because there is a saying in the book "Leng Erlang and Leng Entering Buddhism"; Wang Xifeng was killed by Liu Xianglian in order to avenge Qin Keqing. It's too complicated to talk about this topic, so I won't make an introduction. However, I think that the word cold is not Leng Erlang's coldness, but Leng Zixing's coldness. First of all, the first appearance of the character Wang Xifeng was in the second chapter of the book "Leng Zixing Lectures on the Rongguo Mansion", where Leng Zixing made a brief introduction to Jia Yucun: "If you ask Mr. She, he also has two sons. His long name is Jia Lian, and he has been in contact with him for twenty years. He married the niece of Mrs. Wang's wife, Mrs. Zheng, and has been married for two years. This Lord Lian The donator is a fellow-confessed person, who also refuses to study, and has a chance to change in the world, so now he only lives in Mr. Nai Shuzheng's house and helps with some housework. Who knows that after marrying his wife Ling, There is no one who does not praise his wife, and Lord Lian has taken a shot backward. He is extremely beautiful in appearance, sharp in speech, and extremely scheming, which is beyond compare for a man." This is the first time that Wang Xifeng appears in secret, but it is the only time that the character Leng Zixing appears in front of him in the eighty chapters of the book.After this time, he only appeared sideways once, and it was related to Wang Xifeng. See the seventh chapter "Sending Palace Flowers to Jia Lian and Playing Xifeng".Zhou Rui's family delivered palace flowers to each house for Aunt Xue, when her daughter suddenly came and said that her son-in-law got involved in a lawsuit and was sued in the yamen and wanted to be deported back home—— "It turns out that Zhou Rui's son-in-law is Leng Zixing, a good friend of Yu Village. Recently, because he sold antiques and got into a lawsuit with someone, he taught women to ask for favors. Zhou Rui's family didn't take these things to heart because of the snobbery of the master. , just beg Sister Feng at night, and it's over." With a few words, a short episode was sorted out.Since then, Leng Zixing has never been seen again, so the red scholars have forgotten him, forgetting that he is more qualified than Liu Xianglian to be the spokesperson of the word "cold".Moreover, there are also clear hints in the poem before the second chapter:
