Mrs. Wang has several labels on her body: Jia Zheng's wife;The second lady of the Wang family of the four major families;The second house of Rongguo Mansion is the mother and hostess;The biological mother of the concubine Niangniang;Eat fasting, recite the Buddha, be kind and charitable;The daughter-in-law and mother who are filial and benevolent are ......
Wang Xifeng commented that his aunt was a "Buddha", and Jia's mother said that her second daughter-in-law was "honest, not talking, and like wood", so for Mrs. Wang, she left a generous, generous, and honest reputation for readers.
Is Madame Wang really such a person?
It's really not, although Cao Xueqin hardly uses a derogatory term on Mrs. Wang, but what she does, the language of her actions, the more she understands, the more she shudders. Mrs. Wang's heart is vicious, and even her mouth is dirty, even Aunt Zhao, who is recognized as vulgar, can't catch up.
Jia Zheng only has one wife and two concubines, his wife, Mrs. Wang, Aunt Zhao and Aunt Zhou. Aunt Zhou is a person who has no sense of existence at all, Jia Zheng almost completely ignores her, generally speaking, concubines are used to love men, Jia Zheng's attitude towards Aunt Zhao can show that this woman is not his will, nor does it conform to Jia's mother's aesthetics, it can be imagined that this is Mrs. Wang's handwriting.
The indifference of Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang is incomprehensible, because even if the old husband and wife have long lost their passion, there are examples in Jiafu, even like Mrs. Jia Xing, they can't talk about feelings, but the two of them are still of the same mind. Mrs. Wang is not, she is resentful of Jia Zheng's indifference, but because there is a high hall above, there is a group of descendants below who are not good at attacking, Mrs. Wang only needs to place her spirit on eating fasting and chanting Buddha, Jia Zheng is completely different, he is quite normal with Aunt Zhao, and he looks harmonious and loving.
Readers know that in Cao Xueqin's pen, Aunt Zhao is almost the only character in "A Dream of Red Mansions" who can't find any merits, jealous, vulgar, stupid, and vicious The world recognizes, and Jia's mother, who is kind and kind-hearted, only shows extreme hatred for her, Ping'er says that she is "not two of three", and even her own Tanchun also says that she is "not self-respecting". Of course, using someone like Aunt Zhao is also to tell readers that Jia Zheng and her person have the same smell as Aunt Zhao, but Aunt Zhao, a good-for-nothing woman, is it just to set off Jia Zheng?She actually defeated Mrs. Wang, of course, she was also making a comparison, Mrs. Wang was not even as good as a woman like Aunt Zhao, no matter how unbearable Jia Zheng was, he was also a highly rated reader by Lin Ruhai.
is not as good as Aunt Zhao in her husband's mind, this is the real background of Mrs. Wang, she not only can't get Jia Zheng's heart, but also can't get Jia Zheng's most basic respect and recognition.
Why do you say that Mrs. Wang's heart is vicious?Because the objects and methods she targeted are not understandable to normal people, for example, her dislike for her eldest daughter-in-law Li Kun and eldest grandson Jia Lan is not in line with human nature and common sense, the eldest son is dead, and the grandmother with a normal brain must love her grandson very much, and be grateful to her daughter-in-law who is dedicated to raising her young son. Mrs. Wang is not, she has not had a single communication, no care, or even any interaction with Li Kun's mother and son from beginning to end.
Mrs. Wang fought with her mother-in-law Jia Mu from beginning to end, the reason was Baoyu's marriage partner and the choice of concubine, in the face of Lin Daiyu, who was chosen by Jia's mother, she tried her best to obstruct it, and she cut off the Qingwen selected by Jia's mother, put people to death, and lied to her mother-in-law when it was over, today's people will not understand it too much, you must know that in the background of "Dream of Red Mansions", as a junior, fighting against Jia's mother is equivalent to disobedience, which is to risk the world's disapproval, but Mrs. Wang did it.
The women of the Red Chamber swear words, and the reader can easily think of the scolding battle between Aunt Zhao and the little actors, and Aunt Zhao scolded Fang Guan as a "little prostitute" and "prostitute powder".
Let's compare Mrs. Wang's words when she scolded Qingwen:
"What a beauty!It's really like a sick Shih Tzu, who do you do this frivolous way every day to show ......”
"Go, stand here, I can't look at this wave!"In the past few years, I have become more and more short-spirited, and I can't take care of it, and I haven't seen such a goblin-like thing. ”Sick Xi Shi, this is not just scolding Qingwen alone, in fact, when I saw Qingwen, I thought of Daiyu, at this time, I scolded Qingwen and actually scolded Daiyu, and Aunt Zhao's scolding was different from the anger after being humiliated, Mrs. Wang's scolding was an emotional hatred, is it necessary for her to be so angry with a slave with a huge disparity in status?Of course, there is no need, because it is too unequal, I don't like a maid ring, just let a housekeeper lady dispose of it, ** I need to go out myself, so Mrs. Wang treats Qingwen like this with great fanfare, but she wants to let out a bad breath, that is, she can't win in Daiyu and Jia Mu, can't get the upper hand, and must lower her eyebrows and be patient.
Mrs. Wang's hatred, poison, and dirtiness make readers feel cold when they read this.
