Jia Baoyu sleepwalks in too illusory realm, and flips through the sub-book and sub-book of the Jinling Twelve Hairpins in the Bo Ming Division, there are a total of twelve young ladies in the main book, and two maids in the sub-book, but there is only one person in the sub-book, and the identity is special: first the young lady and then the maid. When Baoyu opened the (sub-book) to see, he saw a painting of osmanthus flowers, and there was a pond and marsh below, in which the water dried up and the mud dried up, and the lotus root withered and failed, and the book cloud behind it:
The root and lotus flower are fragrant, and they are really hurt in their lives. Since the two places were born lonely trees, the incense soul returned to its hometown.
It can be easily seen from the verdict that this girl not only has a bad fate, but also does not have a long life, who is this unlucky girl?
From the change of the girl's three names, it can reflect her misfortune: when she was a child, her parents named Yinglian, and when she was a maid in the Xue family, she was called Xiangling, and the third name was changed by Xue Pan's main house Jin Gui, called Qiuling.
In general, they all call her Xiangling.
Let's start with the origin. Xiangling's background was originally very enviable, and her birthplace was Gusu, a city called Changmen, and it was the most first- and second-class rich and elegant place in the red dust; His father, Zhen Shiyin, is a eunuch, and his mother is Feng, who is virtuous and virtuous, and knows etiquette and righteousness. Although the Zhen family is not very wealthy, the local people also promote the hidden family. This Zhen Shi is quiet and tranquil, does not think of fame, and only enjoys watching flowers and cultivating bamboos, drinking wine and reciting poetry every day, but it is a first-class character of the gods. There is only one deficiency in the family: the couple is now half a hundred years old, has no children under their knees, and only has a daughter, whose name is Yinglian, who is three years old.
Growing up in such a wealthy family, Xiangling was inevitably pampered, and she grew up with pink makeup and jade makeup, which was gratifying, and was loved by her parents.
When Xiangling grew up, she was also a beauty. Although there is no specific description of his appearance, there are several signs to follow in the book, one: the fourth time, Xiangling was sold to the son of a small local eunuch when he was a teenager, named Feng Yuan, this son has had his parents died early since he was a child, and he has no brothers, and he is the only one who lives on some meager property. When he was ten years old, he loved men and hated women. happened to meet this kidnapper and sell a girl, so he fell in love with this girl at a glance, and decided to buy her as a concubine, vowing never to marry a man again, and never marry a second one again; Two: In the seventh time, Zhou Rui's family took her (Xiangling's) hand, looked at it carefully for a while, and smiled at Jin Chuan and said, "It's a good look!" It's a bit like the character of our Dongfu Lirong ** milk. ”；Three: In the sixteenth time, Jia Lian smiled (to Wang Xifeng) and said: "Exactly, I just saw my aunt go, and I accidentally bumped into a young daughter-in-law, and she was born so neatly." I suspect that there is no such person in our family, and when I was talking, I asked my aunt, who knew that it was the little girl who came to Beijing to buy, named Xiangling, who was a person in the room with Xue Da Fool, opened her face, and became more and more provocative. That Xue Da fool really insulted her. Wang Xifeng said: "That Boss Xue is also 'eating in the bowl and looking at the pot', this year's situation, he and his aunt can't get it, how many famines he fought with his aunt. is also because my aunt looks good or bad when she looks at Xiangling, she acts as a person, but she is different from other girls, gentle and quiet, and the same master girl can't keep up with her. Therefore, the trouble of setting up wine and entertaining guests, Mingtang and he became a concubine. After less than half a month, I can see the wind in the stable, and I feel sorry for it. ”
Seeing this, I can basically understand why Xiangling "suffered a lot of injuries in her life". It turned out that during the Yuanxiao Festival of one year, Shi Yin's family Huo Qi hugged Yinglian to see the spark lantern of the society, and in the middle of the night, Huo Qi wanted to relieve himself, so he put Yinglian on the threshold of the family and sat down. When he finished his small solution and came to hug him, how could there be any trace of Yinglian? was so anxious that Huo Qi searched for half the night, and he didn't see him until dawn. Then Huo Qi didn't dare to come back to see his master, so he fled to another country. When Shiyin and his wife saw that their daughter did not return overnight, they knew that something was wrong, and then asked a few people to look for them, but when they came back, there was no sound to hear. The husband and wife only gave birth to this girl for half their lives, and once they are lost, they will not think. Therefore they wept day and night, and hardly sought death. Look at January, Shi Yin got sick first. At that time, the widows of the Feng family also suffered from illness and asked for medical treatment every day.
Xiangling has not been heard from since then, and she did not appear in a life lawsuit until she was a teenager. It turned out that this kind of kidnapping of Xiangling was a kind of kidnapper who was five or six years old, kept in a secluded place, and when he was eleven or twelve years old, he took his appearance and took him to another country for resale. Originally, Xiangling sold to her son Feng Yuan, and it was likely that she would be out of the sea of suffering, no wonder she sighed to herself: 'My sins are full today! Who knew that the next day he was abducted and sold to the Xue family, and the two families did not give in, and the son of the Xue family, Xue Pan, was known as the 'dumb overlord', and he was the first person in the world to make a temperament, and made money like dirt, so he beat Feng Gongzi to a falling flower, dragged him to death, and dragged Yinglian away. This Feng Gongzi was overjoyed, and after an attempt, he spent money and gave his life.
Regarding Xiangling in this lawsuit, the judge Jia Yucun had a bystander's words: "This Xue family is richer than the Feng family, and if you want to be a person, naturally there are many concubines and concubines, and there is no indulgence, and it may not be as close to Feng Yuan as one person." “
The facts are as Jia Yucun said. After Xue Pan married his wife, Xiangling was tortured by Jin Gui (a lonely tree in two places) in every way, and although she got rid of Jin Gui, she couldn't help but feel sad about the moon and sighed to herself. was originally cowardly, although he had been in Xue Panfang's room for several years, he was sick in the blood, and he was not pregnant. Now he is angry and sad, frustrated both inside and outside, and even causes dry blood disease, becoming thinner and thinner, eating lazily, and asking a doctor to take medicine, but it is not effective.
As for the proverb at the beginning of "causing the soul of Xiang to return to his hometown", Gao He continued to write "Dream of Red Mansions" and explained Xiangling's fate in a few sentences. In the one hundred and twentieth time, Shiyin (to Jia Yucun) said: "The old gentleman doesn't know anything, the little girl Yinglian, the young man was robbed by the dust, and when the old gentleman first took office, he used to judge. Now the surname Xue is returned, and the birth is over. Left a son in the Xue family to inherit the ancestry. At this time, it is the time when the dust edge is exhausted, so I have to take it one after another. ”
was abducted when she was a child, and the young lady became a maid tragically; After marriage**, the flower season died of dystocia--- a girl's life is like this, it is really unfortunate!
