I wrote an article about Jin Chong jumping into a well. "She is the most wronged master of the Jia family, because an unfaithful and unjust servant has been scolded for more than 30 years." Interested parties can click on my homepage to view the article.
The main reason why Jinchuan jumped into the well was that her dream of being rich was shattered. Although she is only a servant girl from a rich family, it is also said in the original book that the servant girl of the Jia family is more noble than the average lady.
As the handmaiden of the Jia family, Jinchuan should be very proud in his heart, so he will have such a big reaction when he loses this position. In her opinion, being kicked out is worse than dying. Although there are also shameful elements, losing Jia's position has hit her the hardest.
On the other hand, if I know this, why should I know it? If you cherish this position so much, why do you take your work so lightly and your host's taboos so lightly?
As Mrs. Wang's personal maid, can she not know what Mrs. Wang hates most If she doesn't even know her master's likes and dislikes, it is absolutely impossible for her to go to the position of a big maid.
Just like why did Wang Xifeng win the trust of grandma? Because she knows how to please Jia Mu and what Jia Mu hates. The same is true of Jinchuan. As Mrs. Wang's right-hand man, it is more important to know what Mrs. Wang hates than what she likes.
Otherwise, I don't know which day it will step on the thunder. How can I become a big maid step by step? Therefore, Jinchuan was well aware of Mrs. Wang's taboo, but she went to violate it without hesitation.
And under what circumstances do you think Jin Chong angered Mrs. Wang? It was when Mrs. Wang took a nap that she hit her leg! First of all, she is working. Second, Mrs. Wang is just around the corner.
In this case, she dared to flirt with Baoyu, which was a naked provocation to Mrs. Wang. Since she looked down on Mrs. Wang's master position, she moved her most valued Baoyu. Can Mrs. Wang not be angry?
Jinchuan knew that once she was thrown out, she could never come back, because she knew better than anyone that Mrs. Wang could not tolerate such a thing and could never forgive her. That's why I beg Mrs. Wang's forgiveness, but is she really that pitiful?
She was plotting evil even when she begged Mrs. Wang. She said to Mrs. Wang, "I've been with my wife for more than ten years, and now I'm out, and I still haven't seen anyone?"
Mrs. Wang is already angry, and she still uses this kind of words to kidnap Mrs. Wang morally. How can it be useful?
Many people think that Mrs. Wang forced money into the well, which really wronged her. Most people who scold Mrs. Wang are women, and they basically replace themselves with the heroine Lin Daiyu. They think that Mrs. Wang is against Baodai being together, so Mrs. Wang is a bad person and will look at everything she does with colored glasses.
People who have this idea have never thought about it. If you were Mrs Wang, what would you do?
Imagine if your nanny was entrusted with your money and molested your son in front of you, knowing that you hate it the most.
Will you kindly praise her and keep her around?
Some people say that throwing gold into a well is a resistance to the system of cannibalism and exploitation in feudal society, which is really ridiculous. Jinchuan neglected her working hours, deliberately violated her master's taboo and attempted to kidnap her master morally, saying that she was unfaithful and unjust.
She didn't refuse Baoyu to feed her and hold her hand. She also told Baoyu that "the golden hairpin fell into the well", which shows that she also has ideas about Baoyu. After all, Baoyu's illegal act of pampering that girl in Hongyiyuan is well known to the Jia family and must be willing in his heart.
After being punished, I was stuck in a corner, but in the end, Mrs. Wang had to carry all the pots on her back. How unfair Mrs. Wang is. Having made such a mistake, Mrs. Wang kicked her out if she didn't sell it, which was very kind.
Although Jinchuan is a aristocratic family, because Mrs. Wang just drove her away and did nothing else, in order to give her a way out, most of the indentures will be returned to her. But she couldn't get over it herself and insisted on jumping into the well.
Cao Xueqin also used the evaluation of "forgiveness" for Mrs. Wang. She never even hit a little girl. The reason why she hit Jinchuan was because she did what Mrs. Wang hated most.
People like Jinchuan do things without thinking, only on impulse. In fact, such people are not uncommon at work. They don't work hard and make excuses when they make mistakes. Poor psychological endurance, can't stand a little frustration. How can I live well?
Of course, Baoyu made a bigger mistake in this matter, but this is another topic.
