When Fang Guan came out, Chun Yanfang quietly told him about Rui Guan and made amends with him. Baoyu had nothing to talk about with Cong Huan, because he asked Fang Guan what was in his hand with a smile. Fang Guan quickly handed it to Baoyu to see, and said it was a rose nitrate for rubbing tinea in spring. Baoyu said with a smile, "It's a pity that he wants it." Hearing this, Jia Huan stretched out his head and took a look. He smelled a fragrant smell again. He bent down and took out a piece of paper in the boot bucket to hold it. He smiled and said, "Good brother, give me half." Baoyu had to marry him. Fang Guan refused to share it with others because it was a gift from Rui Guan. He quickly stopped him and said with a smile, "Don't touch this, I'll get some more." Baoyu smiled at the bag and said, "Get it quickly."
Fang Guan took this, went to collect it himself, and went to find his usual one from the casket. When I opened it, the box was empty, and I was puzzled. There was some left in the morning. Why didn't it go? Because when people are asked, they all say they don't know. Musk said, "I'm busy asking this now, but the people in this room are short for a while." No matter what you give them, how can they see it? Send them away quickly so that we can eat. " Hearing this, Fang Guan wrapped some jasmine powder in a bag and brought it. Jia Huan reached out to pick it up when he saw it. Fang Guan was busy throwing it at the kang. Jia Huan had to pick it up on the kang, put it in his arms, and as a speech left.
Jia Huan is a grandfather at any rate. Where did Fang Guan get the courage to openly deceive his master? Even if he looked down on him in his heart, he could not show it. As a singer, she couldn't figure out how much she weighed. Besides, at that time, the rose nitrate was in Baoyu's hand, which Baoyu wanted to give, and Baoyu was the master of Fangguan. The master said he would give it to Jia Huan, but a slave stopped him. Thanks to Baoyu's respect for women and maids, she was asked to go back to her room and get some rose nitrate for Jia Huan. After taking it out, it was clear that Jia Huan reached out to pick it up and Fang Guan threw it back on the kang. Then, why is Jia Huan's position so low that even a servant girl can play tricks on him!
Because he is an illegitimate child.
In ancient times, men didn't care about the back house, and women were the real leaders of the back house. The county officials were not as good as the current ones.
Someone may have said that I see my child every day. I should be able to see who has wronged him. That's not right either.
Ancient houses were divided into front yards and backyards, of course, referring to large families that can be divided conditionally. Men's living area is in the front yard, while women's living area is in the backyard, so there is a saying that the front door is not allowed to go out and the second door is not allowed. The second door is used to isolate the living areas of men and women.
Because ancient men didn't go into the back house very much, and if the family was big, the children were far away, and the children were mainly maids, unlike modern people who had a meal and everyone got together. In ancient times, it was not said to eat in separate rooms. Even if there was no distinction between men and women, it was rarely said that a daughter ate at the same table as her father. Then the problem came. You couldn't even see this daughter. How do you know if she was doing well? You know, where information is underdeveloped, violence is most likely to occur.
A dream of red mansions is like this. Jia Baoyu goes to Mrs. Wang and Jia Mu to pay his respects every morning and evening, while others are casual. This is because Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Jia like him, and when he comes back late and doesn't go, they have to find someone to call him. It doesn't matter whether the others come or not.
One of the logics of the popular house fighting novels is that if the hostess of the back house forces you not to come to inquire after you, you will be finished. This logic is also tenable. The host is at home in the morning and evening, and if you don't show up at that time, you basically put an end to the opportunity to see another big boss, so there is nowhere to complain.
It's the same reason that you have a stepmother and a stepfather.
Don't underestimate the role of your mother.
They say it's better to talk to a beggar's mother than an official's father. Why? If you think about it, you can actually understand why the office is different.
It's not surprising that the mistress, the housekeeper, and the servant girl at home have to make a living under the mistress's hand every day, and whoever eats is in charge, and the mistress tends all kinds of resources to her own children. If there is another established "difference between the ordinary and the ordinary", it is equivalent to holding the sword of Shangfang.
It doesn't mean that this family is so unfair and bad for the family. On the contrary, it is a compromise for family interests, which is a game result. As a man, who is willing to treat his children differently? But if your daughter is married with a large dowry and your political help to her son-in-law, and her son-in-law still loves children born to other women and doesn't favor your grandson, are you happy? It is precisely to attract families with the same status and ensure that they can marry a daughter-in-law with a high status.
Patriarchal clan, mother clan and wife clan are the three most powerful networks of ancient people.
Men only love their ordinary children, but also see if outsiders pay the bill.
When ancient people met, they should first find out the origin of each other. How do you look at it? It depends on the network of father, mother, wife, teacher and so on. It is impossible to decide a person's status if you want to use a paternal family.
After Xue Pan's murder, he told Jia Yucun about the origin of Xue Pan. First, he was from four big families. Then, his uncle was Wang Ziteng, and his aunt was Jia Zheng's wife. Jia Yucun suddenly react Xue Fan exactly is a master. At that time, it was said that half of the Wangs came to visit Jia Yucun. This is the effect of the mother's force.
There is still a saying that my uncle is bigger than the sky. Think about what is going on. There is a natural distinction between those with and without uncles.
Speaking of it, some people say that concubines are also common in a dream of red mansions, and Tanchun has a higher status than Jia Huan, which shows that concubines are not the decisive factor. That's right, but whether the status of illegitimate children is high is really not given by the host Jia Zheng, but by the hostess Mrs. Wang. Mrs. Wang doesn't like Jia Huan. When she sees Tanchun, Tanchun has a high status. And in the book, Baoyu's uncle Wang Ziteng invited him to dinner. No one called Jia Huan at all. Instead, he called Tanchun. This is one of the reasons for Tanchun's high status. Jia Huan can't get help from his first mother's family, which means he has no uncle. Her own mother's brother, his real uncle, can't be called uncle, and his own uncle is just a slave of Jia's family. It may be worse than the status of the slaves around Jia Huan. How much network does this uncle have to help his nephew?
In the book, Xue Pan, Feng Ziying, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong invite guests to dinner, and basically they are not called Jia Huan.
You have to be respected by outsiders.
Even if Dizi is not favored at home, as long as my uncle likes it, take him out to Dolara, and his status will not come up.
Some people will say, if you have resources, don't use them for your own children and grandchildren, is it sb? Just like Jia Zheng in a Dream of Red Mansions, he was doing five kinds of sinecure and gave Jia Yucun a big job as a Nanjing magistrate. Is he an sb? Then you think that ancient times was a relational society (as if modern times were not the same), and people with huge connections were powerful. This is called in-laws and old friends spread all over the country. You only have your own family. This is called "being alone".
Moreover, the relationship is not a non-renewable resource, and it is not that the more money is used, the more things are used. If you don't say that you will use it for your grandchildren, there will be fewer descendants in your family, and it is not a favor. The more relationships you have, the more relationships you have, whether it's helping or being in debt.
For a long time, there is no imperial examination, and everyone can only come out as an official by the recommendation of big people and the promotion of filial piety and honesty. Then this is a publicity campaign, and my grandfather and uncle will open their mouths to help me. Why don't you just be good and good? I have checked the children of Wang's in the Wang Dao era before, and they are basically military attaché s, so it is impossible to finish all the military attaché s, and at worst there are civil servants. There are so many officials in the world, right? Your family can't finish it. There is a saying that although it is not about this phenomenon, it can barely be used here: a sedan chair carries people.
