Dream of Red Mansions 049 The Eleventh Ningfu Family Banquet

The eleventh birthday celebration of the Ningfu family banquet saw Xifeng Jia Rui lustful.

It is said that it is Jia Jing's birthday, Jia Zhen first packed sixteen boxes of high-quality edible things and rare fruits, and Jia Rong led his family to send them to Jia Jing, and said to Jia Rong: "You pay attention to see if the master likes it or not, you will do Lilly." Say, 'My father did not dare to come at the words of his grandfather, but he led the whole family in the house and saluted upwards.' After hearing this, Jia Rong led her family to go.

Gradually, people are coming. First Jia Lian and Jia Qiang arrived, first looked at the seats everywhere, and asked, "Is there anything wrong?" The family replied, "Our grandfather originally planned to invite him to come home today, so he didn't dare to prepare a stubborn child." The day before yesterday, when I heard that the master was not coming again, I now asked the minions to find a small drama and play ten times at a time, all of which were prepared on the stage in the garden. "After that, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Sister Feng, and Baoyu all came, and Jia Zhen and You Shi took them in. You's mother is here first. Everyone had seen each other and sat down with each other. Jia Zhen and You personally handed over the tea, and said with a smile: "The old lady is the ancestor, and my father is a nephew, so I didn't dare to invite her to the old man's house on such a day; But at this time, the weather is cool, and the chrysanthemums in the garden are in full bloom again. Who knew that the ancestors refused to appreciate their faces. Sister Feng didn't wait for Mrs. Wang to speak, and said first: "The old lady said yesterday that she was coming, because when she watched Brother Bao and them eat peaches at night, the old man was greedy again, and he ate most of them. Because I was asked to go back to my uncle, I couldn't come today, saying that there were a few delicious things, and they would be very bad. Jia Zhen smiled when she heard this: "I said that the ancestors love to be lively, if they don't come today, there must be a reason, if so." Mrs. Wang said: "The day before yesterday, I heard your eldest sister say that Brother Rong's daughter-in-law is not very good, what is going on?" You Shi said: "She is very sick, and she played with the old lady and the ladies in the Mid-Autumn Festival last month, and came home to be well." After reaching the twenties, I feel lazy day by day, and I am lazy to eat, which has been more than half a month. I didn't have my period for another two months. Mrs. Xing continued: "Don't be happy? ”⑤

Wang Xifeng preemptively said that he knew that Mrs. Wang was not good at making up excuses.

It seems that there is no flaw, everyone can accept it, and Jia Zhen will get off the donkey.

Mrs. Wang called Wang Xifeng Jia Zhen's "eldest sister", and combined with the following text, Jia Jing's wife and Jia Zhen's mother should be the Wang family.

You was kept in the dark, so he told the actual situation that the sudden illness was caused by an abortion, and he has been avoiding medical treatment since then.

Jia Mu should have made an excuse not to come to Ning Guofu. First, Jia Jing is her junior, not her biological son or nephewNing Rong's second mansion has long beenSeparation. The second is that Jia Jing, the protagonist of the birthday banquet, is not there, and Jia's mother, as an elder, does not need to come. The third is that Jia's mother is also dissatisfied with her Jinshi background but acts as a stand-in for the emperor, leaving her family and business, although she is dissatisfied, it is difficult to say clearly. Fourth, Ning Guofu is promiscuous, and has a bad reputation.

It is mentioned many times in the book that Jia's mother attaches great importance to health preservation and knows the way of health preservation, pays attention to her diet, and will not eat indiscriminately because of "gluttony".

As he was talking, the person outside replied: "The eldest master, the second master, and the masters of the family are here, and they are in the hall." Jia Zhen hurriedly went out. Here You Shifang said: "In the past, the doctor also said that he was happy. Yesterday, Feng Ziying recommended a gentleman he had learned, and the medical Tao was very good, but it was not a joy, but a big symptom. Yesterday I prescribed a prescription and took a dose of medicine, and my dizziness is slightly better today, but nothing else has any great effect. Sister Feng said: "I said that she is not very unsupportable, and on a day like today, she will no longer refuse to come up." You said: "You saw her here on the third day of the first month, and she was forced to work hard for a long time, and it was also because of the good bosses of your mother and son that she was reluctant to go." Sister Feng listened, her eyes were red for a long time, and she said: "It's really 'unforeseen circumstances in the sky, and people have good and bad luck'." At this age, if you are sick with this disease, what is the fun of being alive! ”③

While talking, Jia Rong came in and asked Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, and Sister Feng to say goodbye, and then replied to You's family: "Just now I went to bring food to the master, and replied that my father was serving the masters at home and entertaining the masters of the family, and he didn't dare to come according to the words of the grandfather." The master was very fond of it and said, 'This is it.'" Tell my father and mother to serve my grandfather and wife, and tell me to serve my uncle, aunts, and brothers. also said that the "Yin Qi Wen" was hurriedly carved out and printed 10,000 loose people. I replied to my father. I'm going to have to go out quickly to send off the grandfathers and have dinner with the family. Sister Feng said, "Brother Rong, you can stop." What is your daughter-in-law doing today? Jia Rong frowned and said, "Isn't it good! The aunt will find out when she comes back and sees. So Jia Rong went out. ④

pointed out that Wang Xifeng and Qin Keqing have an extremely close relationship, which seems to surpass ordinary family relations.

After the volcanic landslide, Wang Xifeng's mentality changed.

Jia Rong's attitude is more like a bystander with interests, and there is no husband and wife relationship.

Here You Shi said to Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang: "Mrs. eat here, or should you eat in the garden?" The little play is now being prepared in the garden. Mrs. Wang said to Mrs. Xing: "Let's just eat and then go over, and save a lot of things." Mrs. Xing said, "Very good." So You Shi instructed his daughter-in-law and son-in-law: "Bring food quickly!" Outside the door, they all agreed, and everyone went their own way. After a while, the meal was served. You Shi asked Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, and her mother to sit down, and she sat on the side with Sister Feng and Baoyu. Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang said: "We came to pay homage to the eldest master's birthday, isn't this actually our birthday?" Sister Feng said: "The eldest master was originally a good cultivator, and he has already cultivated, and he can be regarded as an immortal." When the wives say this, it's called 'heart to god'. The words made the whole room laugh. ①

So, You's mother, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, and Sister Feng all finished eating, rinsed their mouths, and cleaned their hands before saying that they wanted to go to the garden. Jia Rong came in and said to You Shi: "The old man and all the uncles, brothers, and brothers have also eaten. The eldest man said that there was something at home, and the second master didn't like to listen to dramas and was afraid that people would panic, so he went. The other families were all let by Second Uncle Lian and Brother Qiang to listen to the play. The four princes of Nan'an County, Dongping County, Xining County, and Beijing County, as well as six of Zhenguo Bull Mansions, and eight of Zhongjing Houshifu, all sent people to send birthday gifts with their names, and they all returned to my father, and they were first collected in the tent, and the gift list was on the file. The names of the lord's thanks were handed over to the people who came, and everyone who came was rewarded as usual, and everyone who came let them eat before they went. The mother should invite the two wives, the old lady, and the aunt to sit in the garden. You Shi said: "I have just finished eating, and I am about to pass." ”

Jia Amnesty, Jia Zheng can't come to respond to the scene, and the relationship between Ning Rong and the two mansions is not close.

Four Kings &Eight dukes except for the Jia familyExternalThe other six public familiesAll give birthday gifts, one is that the Jia family is still powerful, and the other is that Jia Jing is probably not a Taoist monk just because he wants to cultivate immortals.

The custom of being a substitute monk was inherited from the Mongol Yuan, and the Yuan Dynasty quickly abandoned its own belief in shamanism after entering the Central Plains, and instead believed in Tibetan Buddhism, so this "stand-in monk" custom began to become popular among the upper nobles, and the Ming Dynasty inherited this custom. Emperor Wanli's stand-in monk Dharma name Zhishan, in today's Beijing Cheng'en Temple as the presiding, day and night chanting Buddha, for the emperor to bless. Later, the Qing Dynasty entered the Central Plains, and the Qing Dynasty inherited the Ming system, which also retained this custom. Even Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty, had an exclusive stand-in monk.

Why do we read less and less now Jia Jingying is the stand-in of the Emperor Taishang in the book, Jia Jingjinshi was born and was the founding father of the aristocracy, and he was qualified to make a stand-in for the emperor (later the Taishang Emperor), so the Jia family also received additional protection and care from the old emperor. This kind of thing as a stand-in for the emperor is not publicized to the public, so the four kingsThe six princes tacitly agreed, to Jia JingheShou isExpress filial piety to the Emperor. Jia Jing mentioned "Yin Qi Wen" twice, and asked him to engrave it out in a hurry, printing 10,000 pieces of scattered people, which is likely to be the intention of the emperor, or because he was unwell, or there was something in the palace.
