"A Dream of Red Mansions" outlines and leads the characters, reminding readers with "false words" and guiding the whole text. Jiayu Village, also known as Shifei, also known as Yucun. Originally from Huzhou, he was born into an official family. But by his time, the ancestral foundation had been exhausted, the population had declined, and he was the only one left. He wanted to go to Beijing to seek fame, but his money was empty, so he had to temporarily live in the Hulu Temple in Gusu City and make a living selling his writings every day. Later, with the help of Zhen Shiyin, he had money to go on the road, passed the Jinshi examination, and became the prefect. Soon after, he was dismissed from his post due to corruption and favoritism, and went to Lin Ruhai's home to work as a tutor. With Jia Zheng's help, he was reinstated. Jia Yucun is a typical representative of feudal bureaucracy. Later, he was tried and convicted for crimes such as greedy solicitation of subordinates. When the emperor granted amnesty, he was released and registered as a citizen. In "A Dream of Red Mansions", Jia Yucun is one of the two characters who has received little mention, but he is a thread-through character in the overall structure of the book, and his role cannot be ignored. Jia Yucun appears as a pair with another cross-cutting character Zhen Shiyin. The beginning of the novel reads: "The author said: Because he had experienced a dream, he hid the real thing, and used the theory of psychics to write the book "The Story of the Stone". Therefore, it is said that Zhen Shi hides it. ... Why not use the false language village dialect to stage a story, which can also make the boudoir known... So the whole novel written by Cao Xueqin claims to be the false language village dialect, which shows that the character of Jia Yucun is no small matter. . Now that the truth has been hidden, what we see is usually lies. So we can also see in the novel that after the second chapter, the character Zhen Shiyin no longer appears, while Jia Yucun often appears in many major turning points. The other two characters who appeared at the same time as Zhen Shiyin and Jia Yucun, the scabby monk and the Taoist Bazu, are also indispensable in the development of the plot of "A Dream of Red Mansions"; but they are almost mythical figures and only play a role in resolving unrealistic contradictions. Scenarios such as Baoyu being possessed by a demon and Baoyu losing a jade must appear. Although a monk and a group of people also foreshadow the fate of the Jia family, they only represent the author's secret warning to the world. In reality, there is no one who is directly involved in the contradictions of the Jia family and plays a driving role in it, and at the same time reflects a kind of snobbish mentality in the secular world, is this author who writes little but leaves an impression. Very profound Jia Yucun. As soon as the character Jia Yucun appeared, he gave people the look of a powerful traitor: "... I looked up suddenly and saw a man in the window. He was wearing old clothes. Although he was poor and embarrassed, he was born with a round waist, a thick back, a broad face and a square mouth. , with sword-shaped eyes, straight nose and right cheeks. "This is the image of a idle scholar, but he is unwilling to stay under others for a long time, as if he will do something great in the future. Zhi Ping commented: This is reckless and careless. It seems that the approval is accurate. This person has a bold personality and sometimes behaves unconventionally, but he hides his desire to find opportunities to make a career. Because of his small gauze and hat, he had to carry the shackles, which is the spiritual portrayal of this kind of character. This is the epitome of an official figure and a living example of those who were enthusiastic about fame and wealth in the society at that time. There was an unpleasant philistine air about him. He exudes a disgusting stench, but he disguises himself as a scholar and a motivated person; he has a dirty heart that is desperate for profit, but he always dresses himself up as a gentleman. Such a character is exactly what the author is extremely evil about, and in the novel "A Dream of Red Mansions", he happens to be a completely different example of the protagonist Jia Baoyu. Chapter 32 writes: "Just as he was talking, someone came to Yu and said: 'The uncle from Xinglong Street is here. The master asked the second master to go.' When Baoyu heard this, he knew that it was Jia Yucun who came, and he felt very uncomfortable. Later, Shi Xiangyun advised him that he should "meet these people who are serving as officials frequently and talk about the economics of official career." However, Jia Baoyu failed to comply with the expulsion order and was scolded by him for speaking "bastard words." The reason why Jia Baoyu despises fame is also due to Chi's deep hatred for Jia Yucun and his ilk. From this we can see that the character Jia Yucun is written as an absolute contrast to Jia Baoyu. The reason why Jia Baoyu did not want to get an official position with stereotyped writing and follow the official path was precisely because he did not want to turn himself into a heartless Jia Yucun. No matter from the structure of the book or the theme of expression, the character of Jia Yucun cannot be underestimated. He not only leaves a deep impression on people with his vivid and unique appearance, but also occupies a very important position in the novel with his typicality. In the development of the plot, he is also an extremely important threading figure, making him indispensable. .

For example, the main characters and some important plot developments in "A Dream of Red Mansions" are all related to the appearance of this character. According to mythology, Jia Baoyu was born into the world by a monk who pushed him into the mortal world, but he officially met with readers. Although it comes from Leng Zixing's mouth: "I didn't want to give birth to a son later. What's even more strange is that as soon as the fetus was born, a piece of colorful crystal jade came into his mouth. There were many writings on it, so he named it Baoyu. "But the first person to have an extraordinary understanding of Jia Baoyu was a large section of Jia Yucun's theory of good and evil. Later, the other two protagonists Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai came to Jia's house, and they were related to Jia Yucun. Not to mention the lawless and stupid overlord Xue Pan. Jia Yucun is indeed like the shadow of a devil, always following Jia's family. He disappears and appears, and in his rise to prosperity, he always brings misfortune to some people. Whether to Jia Baoyu or the entire Jia family, he will always be like a disaster star that makes people rush to avoid it. For Jia Baoyu, he became a touchstone for making choices, and Lin Daiyu never said anything stupid about getting close to Jia Yucun, and regarded him as a confidant. For the Jia family, Jiayu Village has become a mirror of the bleak world. Jia Yucun and Jia She harmed the stone idiot, burying the future disasters of the Jia family and playing a role in fueling the corruption of the Jia family. And when the Jia family was raided, he kicked him hard again, adding insult to injury and exposing the truth. A complete picture of a philistine villain. This is the villain Jia Yucun that the author describes to us. Since then, Jia Yucun has become a synonym for selling for a price, being cunning, being greedy for profit, following others' influence, forgetting one's righteousness at the sight of profit, and repaying kindness with enmity. Of course, the image of Jia Yucun is complicated. He didn't seem so bad at first, so someone has explored the thought process of this character, which is meaningful. But at the same time, the author carefully designed such a thread-through character throughout the book, The intention is very profound.
