There is no praise at all for men who occupy the dominant position in feudal families, such as Jia Jing, Jia She, Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, Jia Lian, Jia Rui, Jia Rong, etc., especially Jia She and Jia Zhen.For example, in the thirteen chapters of Qin Keqing's death, it is written that Jia Zhen is in great pain, as if mourning her concubine, she walks with a cane, needless to say the ugly image.Jia Amnesty did a lot of evil and framed good people. See the forty-eighth chapter for a clear example: Who knows that the unreasonable Yucun heard it, so he set up a method to blackmail him into arrears with the official money, took him to the yamen, said that he owed the official money, sold the property to make up for it, copied the fan, and made it. The official price is sent.That stone nerd doesn't know whether he is dead or alive now.The old master took the fan and asked the second master, "How did you get it here?" The second master only said, "For such a trivial matter, it is nothing to do for people who ruin their families." The master listened. Then he got angry and said that the second master was blocking the master with words.So this is the first big one.There are also a few small ones, I can't remember clearly, so I got them all together and started fighting.

In order to have some fun, Jia Amnesty colluded with Jia Yucun and used the power of the officials to ruin the families of the common people. "The stone nerd doesn't know whether to live or die now," Ping'er said unexpectedly, more dead than alive.Although these actions directly came from Yucun, the instruction was clearly attributed to Jia Amnesty.This passage exposes the fact that the feudal landlords and the bureaucrats were in collusion very clearly, and the meaning of the struggle is very sharp.The title of this chapter is, "Excessive love and misunderstood entertainment, and Mu Yanu gathers to recite poems hard", which seems to be about Xue Pan and Xiangling; , It turned out to be a very elegant article.When Xu Ping'er talks to Baochai, it's just a pen.Actually no, and quite the opposite.In my opinion, the title of inserting a pen is actually the main text, and the main text is a foil.The main purpose of this round is to attack Jia Amnesty.

Jia Lian was bad enough, better than his father.He said: "For such a trivial matter, it is nothing to do to ruin the family and ruin the family." Jia She's behavior even looked down on his son, and the evil is obvious.It can also be seen from this that the praise and criticism of characters is relative, that is, although Jia Lian is bad, he is better than Jia She; One step up.This style of writing is very profound and cold.As in the forty-sixth chapter "Embarrassing people will inevitably have embarrassing things", embarrassing people mean evil and unrighteous.This time, everyone in the book hates Jia She and Mrs. Xing deeply, so there is no need to say more.

Regarding the disadvantages of Jia's people, especially men, there is a summary sentence in this book. Readers will know the author's meaning after reading it.Found at the end of Chapter 4: In less than a month, all the nephews and nephews in the Jia clan have already known half of each other... the seduced Xue Pan is ten times worse than before. As mentioned above, Xue Pan was a murderer when he killed Feng Yuan. Here it is said that "ten times worse", how bad could it be?It seems a bit unreasonable, and the bad things of Jia's people can also be imagined. Since he expressed it so clearly, the strangest thing is that later generations like Jia She a little bit.I still don't quite understand this truth.For example, in the seventy-sixth chapter, when Jia Mu was having a meal, someone modified the text a lot, as if it was like showing compassion and filial piety. See also "School Regulations", so I won't talk about it here.The second time when Jia Amnesty met Leng Zixing for the first time, Zhiben and Qiben didn't comment, but they added the sentence "be calm and harmonious" in the Qianlong Jiachen manuscript.This "calm and neutral" is a superficial test in ancient times, but it was added to Jia She for no reason, it can be described as neither fish nor fowl, and it is extremely absurd.However, Cheng Weiyuan's first edited version (that is, Cheng Jia's version) was still in accordance with Jiachen's text, and Cheng Weiyuan and Gao E also liked this Jia She's very much.Cheng Yiben, who was ranked in the second year, changed it to "he is a man but also moderate." Cheng and Gao thought about it, and felt that such a compliment to Jia She was too much, so they changed it back.I usually say that Cheng Jia's book is better than Cheng Yi's book, because Cheng Jia is a little closer to the original.However, if Cheng A has already changed it indiscriminately, and Cheng B revises it, when encountering these points, Cheng B will be better than Cheng A, as in this case.Therefore, the advantages and disadvantages of Cheng A and B are relative. Who is better and who is worse? Someone must carefully compare the two books before the truth can be found out.
