Chapter 34 8. Good luck loses gold but no color - Golden Oriole

Yinger is Baochai's confidant, and the first time she speaks in the book, it has a great effect.Seen in the eighth chapter "Than the Psychic Oriole Slightly Revealing Meaning Exploring Baochai and Daiyu Half Sour": After Baochai finished reading it, she turned it over again to take a closer look, and said in her mouth, "Don't lose and never forget, the longevity of immortals will prosper." After reading it twice, she turned to Ying'er and smiled, "If you don't pour tea, What are you doing here in a daze?" Ying'er giggled and said, "I hear these two sentences, but they seem to match the two sentences on the girl's collar." Baoyu laughed and said, "So There are also eight characters on my sister's collar, and I appreciate it too!" Baoyu read it, read it twice, and said his own twice, and asked with a smile: "Sister, these eight characters are really related to mine. A pair." Ying'er laughed and said, "It was given by a monk with a scarlet head, and he said it must be carved on a gold vessel." Before Baochai finished speaking, she annoyed him for not pouring tea, and asked Baoyu where she came from.

"Golden jade and good fate" was originally said for the first time from Oriole's mouth.Therefore, the title of this chapter is called "Slightly Revealed than the Psychic Oriole". Although Ying'er didn't talk much, she said one sentence, and each word was very important. She not only said the words on the Tongling jade and Baochai's collar, "It's a pair", but also pointed out the words on the lock, "It's a tortoise. It is given by the head monk", and "must be chiseled on the gold", its function is naturally to match the "jade".

What a "呖呖呖呖骑声声流弹圆", this is really a word, shocking. And it was not just this time that Yinger leaked the secret, and her name appeared in the review not only this time, but also the thirty-fifth chapter "Bai Yuchuan Tastes the Lotus Leaf Soup, the Golden Oriole and the Plum Blossom Network": Baoyu watched Yinger play the net and gossiped, because he asked him, "Ten years old?" Yinger was beating in her hand, and replied, "Sixteen." Yinger said, "My surname is Huang." Baoyu laughed and said, "That's the right name. It really is Huang Yinger." , Just call Yinger, and now it's called out." Baoyu said: "Sister Bao also loves you. Ming'er sister Bao leaves the cabinet, and you must go with her." Yinger pursed her lips and smiled.Baoyu laughed and said, "I often tell Xiren that tomorrow I don't know who will be blessed to take care of your master and slave." Ying'er laughed and said, "You don't know how many advantages our girls have that the world doesn't have. The appearance is still the same." Baoyu saw that Ying'er was so sweet and tactful, her words and smiles were like idiots, and she was already overwhelmed with emotion, so let's talk about Baochai!Then he asked him, "Where are the benefits? Good sister, tell me carefully." Ying'er laughed and said, "I tell you, you are not allowed to tell him again." Baoyu laughed and said, "It's natural." As they said, they only heard the outside saying: "Why is it so quiet!" When they looked back, it was none other than Baochai.

This is another "slightly revealing meaning", which is really itchy to say, but it was interrupted by Baochai's uninvited arrival.Over the past three hundred years, many Red Chamber experts and readers have guessed what Baochai's "several benefits that the world does not have" are. Now let's not guess him, just say that this is the first time that Yinger's original name has been clearly explained. It was originally called "Golden Oriole", but Baoyu just said "Huang Yinger" by the way.In this way, there is a famous song "Girlfriend's Resentment" that is ready to come out:

The future fate of Baochai and Yinger is clear at a glance. They must embrace loneliness and die in this life.Baoyu said, "Tomorrow I don't know who will be blessed to accept your master and slave." But we all know that the person who married Baochai according to the will of "golden and jade marriage" was himself.However, he is unlucky, after all, he can't appreciate Baochai's "benefits that the world doesn't have", "even if he raises the case with his eyebrows, it's hard to understand in the end". However, for this meeting, Ying'er has already registered with Brother Shi, and is eligible to be included in the Second Book of Twelve Beauties.

The third time Ying'er's name appears in the chapter is the fifty-ninth chapter "Calling the General Flying Talisman in the Yanjiang Yunxuan at the Edge of Liuyezhu".This time, the text was full of flowers, and it was very lively on the surface, but inside it showed ups and downs and dangers, and it directly led to Fangguan who was kicked out when he searched the Grand View Garden later—— Seeing the willow leaves spit out shallow blue, and the silk is like gold, Ying'er smiled and said, "Can you make things with wicker sticks?" Ruiguan laughed and said, "What are you making?" Can’t weave it? You can do whatever you want. I’ll pick some leaves and weave a flower basket with the leaves, and I’ll pick all kinds of flowers and put them in it, so I’ll be so stubborn.” Saying this, she didn’t go to pick up the nitrate, but Stretching out his hand to hold the emerald green and covering it with gold, he picked a lot of tender slivers, and ordered the pistil officer to hold it.But he weaves flower baskets one by one, picks one or two branches as he sees flowers along the way, and weaves an exquisite basket with lintels.The branches are originally covered with green leaves, and the flowers are placed on them, but they are also unique and interesting...

Seeing that the old woman had picked many tender willows and lotus root officials had picked many flowers, she couldn't use it in her heart; looking at Yinger's weaving, she couldn't say anything, so she said Chunyan said...the Chunyan cried and went to Yi The Red Court has gone.His mother was afraid to ask him why he was crying, and afraid that he would say that he beat him again, and she would be angry with Qingwen and others, so she couldn't help becoming anxious, and hurriedly shouted: "Come back! I'll tell you to go again." Chunyan Are you willing to come back there?The anxious mother ran to pull him again.When he turned around and saw it, he also ran forward.His mother only cared about chasing him away, but the moss slipped under her feet, which made all three of Ying'er laugh.Ying'er threw all the flowers and willows into the river in a fit of anger, and went back to her room.

Here, Yinger breaks willows to weave baskets and picks flowers for decorations, but because of being disturbed by her mother-in-law, "throws all the flowers and willows into the river in a fit of anger".Before this scene, it was Fang Guan who was bullied by her godmother; after this scene, Liu Wuer was wronged.Fangguan once said that his surname was Hua when he was serving the wine order, and Mrs. Wang once said clearly when she dismissed Fangguan: "Let me ask you, who instigated Baoyu to ask Liu's girl, Wuer, when we went to the imperial mausoleum the year before last?" Fortunately, that girl died short-lived, otherwise, if she came in, you would have ganged up and killed this garden. You even bullied your godmother, not just others!" These words have already put Fangguan and Wu'er together. It is clear that they are connected together, and Fang Guan's expulsion is related to her godmother.

The act of Yinger picking willow branches to weave flower baskets and then throwing them into the river actually foretells the fate of Fangguan surnamed Hua and Wu'er surnamed Liu, and even covers all the beautiful and tender girls in the garden. children's fate.These flowers and tender willows are obvious symbolic techniques, and their fate is ultimately to be broken and broken, drifting with the water. At that time, where will Yinger go? The golden oriole revealed the secret three times, but she alone could not predict her own fate. It is really sad and deplorable! It is about the story of "gold and jade", in which anyone who wears "gold" and "jade" must have a deep meaning.

The head of the "golden" group of women is naturally Xue Baochai who wears a "golden" lock, and the rest are Shi Xiangyun who wears a "golden unicorn", Jia Yingchun who wears a "tired gold phoenix", and "golden silk eight treasures on his head". Wang Xifeng, who wears a beaded bun, wears a red gold disc chi wreath on her neck, and wears a thread of gold and a hundred butterflies in a red satin narrow jacket with flowers, and her confidant Ping'er, who wears a "golden shrimp beard bracelet", all worship "gold "Family.

And those with the word "gold" in their names are naturally the "gold" faction that deserves their name. Among them, Baochai's confidant maid Huang Jinying is the first one, and Baochai's sister-in-law Xia Jingui, Jiamu's maid Jin Yuanyang, and Mrs. Wang's maid Bai Jinchuan are all typical "golden" girls. That's all, and apart from Jin Yuanyang, there is also a person surnamed Jin in the article, that is, Jin Rong in the episode "Naughty Boy Troubling the School", who is arguing with Baoyu and Qin Zhong. — This is a bit puzzling.Jin Rong, a small character, only appeared this time in the 80 chapters in the book, and did not appear a second time. Why was he given such a sensitive and brilliant surname? "The True Story of Ah Q" asked a good question: Do you also deserve the surname Jin? Turn around and turn to Chapter 10 "Golden Widow Greedy for Power and Humiliated by Zhang Tai Physician's Discussion of Diseases and Poor Sources", and the answer is suddenly revealed—— It is said that because of Jin Rong's large number of people and the order of Jia Rui, he kowtowed to Qin Zhong, and Baoyu stopped making noise.After school was over, Jin Rong returned home, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and said, "Qin Zhong is just Jia Rong's brother-in-law, not a descendant of Jia's family. He is just like me when he goes to school. If you get along well with him, he is defiant. Since he is like this, he should do some serious things, and no one will say anything. He usually sneaks around with Baoyu, just thinking that we are blind and can't see. Today he went again Hooking up with someone just happened to hit me in the eye. Even if something goes wrong, what am I afraid of? " His mother, Mrs. Hu, heard him muttering, and asked, "Why are you fighting for your time? It was so hard for me to tell your aunt, and your aunt did everything possible to tell their Second Mistress Lian in the West Mansion. You just got this place to study. If it wasn’t for others, our family still has the strength to hire a teacher? Besides, tea and rice are also readily available in their school. You have studied there for two years, and your family has saved money. It’s a big chew. If you save it, you like to wear bright clothes. Besides, it’s not because you study there that you know Mr. Xue? If Mr. Xue doesn’t give it for a year, what will happen in the past two years? It also helped us with seventy or eighty taels of silver. If you want to make a fuss out of this school now, and then find such a place, let me tell you, it is harder than reaching the sky! Give me an honest and stubborn one Go to sleep later, there will be a lot." So Jin Rong swallowed his anger and went to sleep after a while.I still went to school the next day.No problem. Let's talk about his girl, who was originally hired by the descendant of the Jia family's Yu family, named Jia Huang.But all the people in his clan can match the wealth and power of the Ningrong Second Mansion, so it doesn't need to go into details.Jia Huang and his wife kept a small property, and they often went to the Ningrong Second Mansion to say hello, and they flattered Sister Feng and Youshi, so Sister Feng's son Youshi also often sponsored him, so that he could live like this.Today, the weather was fine and there was nothing to do at home, so I took a woman, got in the car, and came to the house for a walk to see the widow's wife and nephew. During the gossip, Jin Rong's mother mentioned what happened in Jia's school room yesterday, and told his sister-in-law everything from the beginning to the end.If Grandma Huang didn't listen, it was fine. When she heard it, she became angry for a moment and said, "This Qin Zhong bastard is a relative of Jiamen. Isn't Rong'er a relative of Jiamen? Don't be so snobbish, besides. What kind of good deeds are you doing! Even Baoyu can't afford to do this to him. When I go to Dongfu to visit our grandma Zhen, I will talk to Qin Zhong and his sister and ask him to comment on this reason. When Jin Rong's mother heard this, she was very anxious, and hurriedly said: "This is all my quick talk, I told my aunt, please don't go, don't care who they are. If there is trouble, why are you here?" It can stand up there. If it can't stand up, the family will not only be unable to hire a husband, but will add a lot of trouble to him." Grandma Huang heard this, and said: "There are a lot of control over there, wait until I tell you, see What's the matter!" He didn't allow his sister-in-law to persuade him, so he asked the old woman to call a car, and he got in and went to Ningfu. "Huang" is connected with "yellow", which is the color of gold, so it is called "Grandma Huang", which is the same reason as Jin Ying's original surname "Huang".Grandma Huang came to "see the widow and nephew", so her sister-in-law was called the "golden widow".And the widowed wife only appears this time in the whole book, and apart from these two paragraphs, there is no more words.However, her name appeared majestically in the review, for nothing more than to attract attention and emphasize the words "Golden Widow". In other words, the word "widow" is the general trend of the fate of the "Golden School" women.The future Xue Baochai, Xia Jingui, Shi Xiangyun, and Wang Xifeng will not be able to escape this fate. The fate of Baochai is clearly stated in "The Twelve Songs of the Red Chamber", which is "the sky is facing the crystal snow of the nobles in the mountains"; Those who are imprisoned again, Xia Jingui will guard the vacant room alone at that time; as for Wang Xifeng, "one obeys two orders and three people are wooded", he will be divorced by Jia Lian, and an abandoned wife is equivalent to a widow, and she will die alone; Although the widow Li Wan has no gold on her body, there is a sentence in the verdict that "the golden seal is hung on the chest, the grandeur is high, the grandeur is high, and the dark spring is near the road". It can be seen that she is also a widow of the gold school. The so-called "good luck is not golden, but it's a pity that the good luck is not good", since the "golden and jade marriage" has finally come to nothing, the golden oriole accompanied by Baochai is also destined to be a bright pearl cast in the dark, and the fate is ill-fated.
