Sister Qiao, as one of the twelve hairpins of Jinling, her encounter is one of the important plots in the story line of Dream of Red Mansions. Before and after the raid in Jiafu, what kind of crisis and luck did Sister Qiao experience?
At the moment of raiding Jiafu's house, Sister Qiao's fate changed dramatically. As a descendant of the Rong family, she was originally the daughter of the family, enjoying privileges and glory. However, Jiafu made her lose all her privileges and status, and she became a poor little girl who was lonely and helpless. Wang Xifeng was retired back to Wang's house, Ping'er followed her, and Sister Qiao became a helpless lonely woman. She has no relatives to rely on, nor does she have any capital, and the grievances and predicaments she has suffered are indescribable.
Due to the "rebellion" in Jiafu and his home was raided, relatives and friends avoided it. Only Grandma Liu rushed to the scene as soon as she got the news, speculating that she first went to see Sister Feng in prison, then went to Tiejian Temple, and finally rushed to Wang Ren's house, where she met a few people such as Sister Qiao, who was desperate. Grandma Liu doesn't care that Sister Qiao's guilty body will affect herself, and it is the truth to adopt Sister Qiao home with righteousness. This gave Sister Qiao a place to settle down and was able to temporarily get out of danger.
In Sister Qiao's judgment picture, the judgment says "Occasionally, because of Liu's family, I happened to meet a benefactor". This means that Sister Qiao was lucky and happened to meet Grandma Liu, a righteous benefactor.
Grandma Liu went to Jiafu twice to find Wang Xifeng, the housekeeper at the time, and also chose a name for Sister Qiao. When Jiafu was in trouble, Grandma Liu helped Sister Qiao and others with her kindness and righteousness. Regardless of her own situation, Grandma Liu took Sister Qiao and the others to leave Tieji Temple for refuge, providing them with a safe place to stay.
Sister Qiao was able to meet Grandma Liu, which is a coincidence and luck. If Grandma Liu arrives a little late, Sister Qiao may lose her freedom like everyone else and never see each other again. This chance encounter became Sister Qiao's luck and an important turning point in her life.
Sister Qiao is a little person who has experienced a difficult situation, but her sentence picture clearly gives her ending. Sister Qiao married Grandma Liu's son and became a member of the Liu family. In this way, Sister Qiao solved her identity problem and had a new family and sense of belonging.
Sister Qiao's ending shows that her fate has changed, she is no longer a lonely and helpless little girl, but has a family and background. Although she lost her original aristocratic status, she rediscovered hope and joy in life.
Sister Qiao's ending also expresses the consistent theme of Dream of Red Mansions, that is, the interweaving of fate and human nature. No matter what the predicament they find themselves in, people can find a way to change their destiny and pursue their own happiness. Sister Qiao's story tells us that even if the situation is difficult, as long as we stick to our beliefs and work hard, we can find a way out and hope in life.
To sum up, before and after Jiafu raided her home, Sister Qiao experienced a huge crisis and predicament. However, her luck is that she meets the righteous Grandma Liu, so she is sheltered and helped. In the end, Sister Qiao married Grandma Liu's son and was able to start a happy life again. Her story tells us that no matter what setbacks and difficulties we encounter, as long as we keep working hard, we can find a way out and hope in life.
