Bailuyuan : The virgin body was sold by his biological father, and it became a medicinal stove for yin jujube. Tian Xiaoe Why is it so miserable? An indescribable weird smile, until I opened "White Deer Plain" and saw Guo Juren eating Paoyin Jujube, I must not say it, although I have seen and heard a lot of things with heavy tastes, but I also feel a little disgusting. .
However, the author of wrote this piece of content that makes people feel uncomfortable, but wrote it down in "White Deer Plain", is it really intentional to attract people's attention?
When I read the whole chapter, I suddenly realized that the paragraph is not only unnecessary, but it is still an important key to make this book a masterpiece.
What is "Baoyin Jujube"? Yin jujube is also called "Menggan", which is an ancient method spread among people in Shaanxi, and it often appears in Taoist books. Whether it is raw materials or production methods, in my opinion, it is the same as "red lead", which is a set of feudal dross of "harvesting yin and replenishing yang", but it is the treasure that the ancients regarded as the standard.
Because the ancients have a deep understanding, as long as you take this, you can live forever, rejuvenate your youth, and borrow another five hundred years from the sky!
So since it is feudal dross, does it still need to exist in the book? Let's take a look at the writing background of "White Deer Plain".
This is a novel written by the writer Chen Zhongshi in six years. It takes Bai Jiaxuan as the core of the narrative, and constitutes the main body by showing the two contradictions between Bai and Lu. The protagonist of this article, Tian Xiaoe, also It is based on the name of the virtuous martyr Chen Zhongshi found in "Lantian County Chronicle".
We all know that the feudal society has severely suppressed women, and women will be severely punished if they fail to comply.
Even if there is no problem with women, they cannot remarry after the death of their husband. This kind of woman who "has been one husband for a lifetime" will be named a virtuous woman. It seems that she defends the dignity of the whole family, but it also ruins their happy life. .
I have seen a movie and TV series before. It was about a woman who disappeared unexpectedly after her husband died. The people of the tribe thought she died for her husband, so they reported her as a virtuous woman and received a chastity memorial from the royal family.
did not expect that the woman would come back soon after, and the clansmen knew that once she was found to be a crime of deceiving the king, the clansmen not only did not let her live, but also planned to kill her in person. This poor woman,
, thought that the people who came back would accept her, but the person she trusted the most sent her to a dead end.
It can be seen that in feudal society, many women have no status. They are bound by the so-called three cardinal guides and five permanent members, and they are not allowed to have their own thoughts. In the end, what they get is just a false name on the county annals, but who will remember them in future generations? Woolen cloth?
And "White Deer Plain" is precisely through the description of Tian Xiaoe's unfortunate experience, to criticize thousands of years of decadent feudal ethics, so that everyone has more places to reflect.
and the bridge "bubbling yin jujube" is the best embodiment of this criticism.
Tian Xiaoe was born in a scholarly family, but as a woman, she still cannot escape her tragic fate. She was sold to Guo Juren by her father. Not only is Guo Juren in his 70s, but the key is that this lousy old man is still full of bad water.
On the surface, he took Tian Xiaoe as a concubine, but in fact, he made her a medicine stove for making yin jujube.
The father who sold his biological daughter, and Guo Juren who regarded Tian Xiaoe as a medicine stove, this is the poison of feudal bad habits on women. In front of these cannibalistic etiquette, women are not treated as a person, but only as a person. Just a tool.
and Tian Xiaoe chose to useWith his own life, he completed the indictment of this feudal cannibalism. Yes, in the eyes of some people, she is a "soup woman" who doesn't understand ", three obedience, four virtues, ", but to her, she is a living woman who pursues true love and longs for freedom.
Chen Zhongshi later recalled that when Father Tian Xiaoe stabbed Tian Xiaoe to death with a shuttle dart, his hands trembled and he wrote on another piece of paper: " The pain of life, the pain of life, the pain of death"!
It can be seen that Chen Zhongshi couldn't bear the death of Tian Xiaoe, but he had to write it like this.
Although Tian Xiaoe's life was tragic, she didn't do anything wrong, it was just that the society could not tolerate the existence of a woman like her. It is not so much that Lusan killed Tian Xiaoe, it is better to say that the feudal ideology of the society at that time pushed her to the abyss of death.
Tian Xiaoe's tragic life is just a true portrayal of women in the social background at that time, and a microcosm of the society at that time. It represents that era, when women were used as a tool for inheriting the lineage in a male-dominated society, and were subjected to a state of enslavement and oppression.
Chen Zhongshi's "White Deer Plain" is the most representative work of Guanzhong culture. As a masterpiece with such a heavy theme, "White Deer Plain" is destined to be intricate and memorable: Tian Xiaoe was sold by his father For Guo Juren, not afraid of living a hard life but also choosing to fall in love with Heiwa, who was later abandoned by Heiwa and used his body to compromise with the patriarchal society, and was finally killed by his father-in-law because of his "notorious"...

Therefore, we should not only look at some details, but also pay attention to what the whole book wants to tell us, so as to trigger reflection, which is the real meaning of the author to write this book.
