Cao Xueqin said in A Dream of Red Mansions that there is no such thing as a feast in the world. Jin Yong also said in his novel: Look at the clouds in the sky, they gather and then disperse, and they disperse and gather again.
Since ancient times, parting and parting is the most difficult thing for us to face, but we have to face it. Life is like this, we are separated and gathered, gathered and scattered, and in the end, it is just a laugh and we leave quietly.
A Dream of Red Mansions wrote many tearful farewells. When it comes to saying goodbye, the most unforgettable thing should be the tears of Jiafu's Lantern Festival and Lantern Festival.
, the eldest lady of Jia's house, was sent to the palace very early to be a female historian. Having said that, the purpose of Jia's house sending Yuanchun to the palace is obvious. She wants to dedicate herself to the family.
Therefore, when Yuanchun finally returned to her parents' home to save her relatives, once the relatives who had been separated for many years appeared in front of her eyes, grandmother, father, mother, younger brother... Yuanchun almost shed tears every time he saw someone.
Yuanchun burst into tears many times, not only because her family sent her to a place where no one could see her, but also because the place was full of danger and unknown, far away from her parents and family, no matter what the outcome, it was destined to devour her.
is more because Yuanchun knows very well that even if the relatives who have not seen each other for many years, even if they see each other suddenly, they are overjoyed and even cry with joy, but they will eventually leave. She no longer belongs here, the time has come, she will leave after all. This time, I don't know what year it will be when we meet again, or even, we will never see each other again.
bid farewell to her family, not only the imperial concubine Yuanchun, but also the third girl Tanchun who eventually married far away. Her lyrics are clearly written: after a storm of wind and rain, three thousand, throwing the flesh and blood together...
Her fate is more tragic than Yuanchun, she will marry to a farther place, that place may be deserted The barbarian land is full of thorns, the language is difficult to understand, and the customs are very different, but she knows that there are tigers in the mountains, but she has to feed the tigers with her body, just in exchange for the short-term peace of the family.
In the ancient times when traffic was underdeveloped, Tanchun, who was married far away, was only separated from his family, but what was the difference between saying goodbye to death? A closer look at Tanchun's lyrics, isn't Tanchun tearfully saying his last farewell to his family in life?
The first 80 chapters of Dream of Red Mansions did not write about Tan Chun's long-term marriage, but her judgment has already described it very clearly. It was the Qingming season. Someone was flying a kite, there was a sea, there was a big boat, and there was a woman in the boat. Covering his face and weeping.
Isn't this woman just a long-distance marriage explorer? Isn't this the tragic scene she couldn't bear to part with when she said goodbye to her family on the day she got married? But who let her be born in a government like Jia's mansion? Regardless of whether they were descendants, they were destined to sacrifice their lives for the family, as the daughters of the Houmen's mansion.
sacrificed for the family, more than Yuanchun and Tanchun? The cowardly second young lady Yingchun was also pushed into the fire pit by her shameless father Jia She.
, this poor second lady, was bullied and neglected because of her cowardice when she was still a girl in her boudoir. After marrying Sun Shaozu , she was even more insulted and scolded, so that it didn't take long for her to die.
Baoyu Hearing that his second sister was married in Spring, he felt very sad. He was the opposite of Lin Daiyu, who likes to get together and does not like to get together. It is very sad when everyone will be separated eventually.
Therefore, during the period after Yingchun got married, Baoyu used to wander around the area of Zilingzhou every day, and when he saw every scene and object there, he was not sad, and in the end he sang it into a song, The last two sentences are: the ancients took pity on friends, but I am now a brotherhood.
Yes, the aggregation between friends has made us reluctant to part, let alone brothers and sisters who grew up together?
When Spring is here, maybe everyone is used to her presence. Even if she is absent, everyone knows that she is there. But once she is married, to Baoyu, to everyone, Grand View Garden There is no such person anymore.
No matter how deeply affectionate sisters are, one day they will run towards their own lives. Just like Xiaohong said, no one will stay with anyone for a lifetime. This is the original truth of life. How cruel, but how real.
is just like Qingwen who once said that she would not leave the door of Yihong Courtyard even if she died, she probably would not have thought that her decision to leave or stay would not count, Baoyu would not count, even Jia Mu Saying it doesn't count, only Mrs. Wang said it.
Qingwen was finally kicked out, and the life of the former deputy lady of Yihong Court came to an abrupt end, and was replaced by a broken house, a broken bed, and she was so sick that she lay there without even drinking water. People fall.
Fortunately, although Baoyu couldn't change the ending, he sneaked out. He had been with him for more than five years and was also his favorite girl, and had a final farewell in his life.
Qingwen was wronged, but she doesn't care anymore. Baoyu was able to see her at this time, she was very satisfied, and Baoyu finally exchanged underwear with her, and she also gave Baoyu her fingernails, so she had no regrets in death.
When Qingwen died, no one was by her side, she called her mother all night. But since she was born, she has no parents and brothers. She was lonely when she came, and the life she left was lonely. It was like in the opera in A Dream of Red Mansions, she came and went without concern.
's lovely life, no matter how long or short, no matter whether it is joy or sorrow, is an experience. How many people are there who can truly walk away without worry? Qingwen said goodbye to Baoyu. When she left, didn't she call out to the mother she had never seen many times in her heart?
In life, there is joy and separation. What Duke Cao showed us through Dream of Red Mansions, isn't it a process from reunion to separation? Maybe that ending was too sad, and people in the world couldn't bear it, so they hid it.
Author: Xi Si Shao, this article is the original work of Red House.
Postscript: Teacher Guo Zhan, who has been reading less of the articles created by the Red Chamber, passed away. I was shocked to hear this, and I was deeply saddened. I have known Mr. Guo since September 2020. For more than two years, he has been reading less than a hundred articles in the Red House. The articles are of a very high standard. Many readers and I have benefited a lot.
Mr. Guo, who has been tormented by illness for many years, is physically and mentally strong, and does not spare no effort for the red school in his heart. Even if he is a high paraplegic, he still insists on studying the red building. Day after day, year after year, I can't imagine how he is. He wrote nearly a million words of Red Mansions article word by word.
However, life is impermanent, sometimes we get together, we just meet each other late, and we are separated by thousands of miles. So far, I haven't been able to meet the teacher, which has become a big regret. Perhaps Mr. Guo had foreknowledge that he had bid farewell to me in April this year. At that time, I couldn't accept it. After a long conversation with the teacher, I learned about the current situation of the teacher, and my nose was sore for a while. Although teacher
is gone, his articles are still there, his contribution to the Red School is indelible, and he still has an unfulfilled wish. When the teacher's brother told me the news of the teacher's passing away, he also told me that the teacher had not sorted out the published part. The manuscript, according to his dying account, will be sent to me by his father one after another.
After 20 years of reading, I am amazed by the writing, and I have been dictating my heart in front of the hospital bed, and it has gradually grown into a million. Mr. Guo, go all the way.
