It's not scary to go to the Red Mansion. What's scary is to become the most embarrassing person in the Red Mansion. Fortunately, I am not alone, but my husband is more embarrassed than me, which is embarrassing.

Bad review

The heroine is such a holy mother. It doesn't matter if she reaches out to help when she encounters someone else, but she insists on stepping in even though she hasn't met and it hasn't happened yet. She thinks that she is the savior of the world or the Buddha who saves all sentient beings. When the Buddha saves me but not others, the heroine wants to help everyone. In order to save others, she pushes the people around her into the abyss. This is the second book I have given a one-star review. For the other books, I only commented without giving them a rating or abandoned the article. But for this book, I am really speechless. You want to save all sentient beings, but don't let the people around you pay for it. Just because you are a fan of Red Mansions? You want to save the lives of all the people you think are tragic. Why? Do you think that what is bad must be bad? Do you think that if a good person does something bad, it must be caused by others? What about three views? What about IQ? I'm not targeting the author or anything else, I'm only targeting the heroine, thank you!

I really don't understand why the heroine insists on taking care of the Xue family's affairs. She can't even take care of her own affairs! If someone doesn't appreciate it and still insists on getting in on it, it's really too much! ! ! !

The writing is very messy, I just write whatever comes to my mind.

I have always disliked Xue Baochai because she framed Lin Daiyu. I once read a book: They are obviously two good friends, but one of them is not in every possible way. The other is made better and better, but the better one still pretends not to know. There must be something wrong. Although I can't remember the original text clearly, the general meaning is this. Only then did I know that Xue Baochai was suppressing Lin Daiyu to improve his status. And now I understand that after delving into the details, it turned out to be like this. Although Xue Baochai is a scheming person, some classmates actually said that they liked her all-around attitude. Think about the fact that people you consider to be good friends will plot against you and frame you behind your back, shouldn't you avoid them as much as possible? Compared with honesty, even if she is lonely, I still think Lin Daiyu is cuter.

The heroine is really a white lotus, she is very kind to everyone. Is it possible that such a person is really innocent?

He is not a saint, yet he pretends to be a saint and shows compassion to all living beings.

Overall, this book is pretty good, but the heroine is a little too soft-hearted in the early stages.

Western

Both of the author's books include Western things. I don't know if I like them too much and put too much in the book. It would be fine if it were a Qing Dynasty novel. A Dream of Red Mansions is a book. Even if it has a broad background, it does not match the history of China. If the Qing Dynasty is used as the background, when Cao Xueqin was there, we were in the process of seclusion. At that time, China looked down upon foreign countries. He also talked about promoting our country's prestige and saying that his own things were the best. He was partial to admiring foreigners and favoring foreigners. He said that he was learning technology, but studying abroad was completely disdainful because of the pride and complacency of people at that time. Moreover, the status of foreign women is also very low. Even if they go abroad, they will not go to women's colleges.

Delicate and good book

I have read a lot of books about The Red Mansion, mostly about harem, pillow beauty, and human beings. There are many books about women, but this book makes people want to put it down. It makes people read it easily and follow it slowly.

The author is male or female.

Although I haven't finished reading it yet, I found a problem. Although the men in it are bad, the reasons seem to be attributed to the women. Either the elders did not educate them well or the wives did not persuade them well, just like many dynasties and the fall of the country are blamed on women.

The author of this book writes well and fluently, and the dialogue language basically matches the character. The biggest problem is that the author is not capable of constructing plots. He seems to be afraid of heart-wrenching plots, so he arranges the fate of the protagonist too smoothly. After only ten chapters, it is said that Jia Mu and the protagonist are as close as mother and daughter. This is a collapse situation. It should be noted that Jia Mu is the final boss in Red Mansions and the source of the entire tragedy of Red Mansions. Perhaps, some people say that the tragedy of the Red Mansions was caused by the evil deeds of Jia Zhen, Jia She and others. If you look at it that way, you will look at the profound realistic metaphor of Red Mansions too superficially. Red Mansions is by no means an exposure and criticism of ordinary crimes in feudal society; it is an exposure and criticism of the original evils of feudal society. The core of all Wanjie's crimes is Jia Mu. First of all, Jia Mu is the staunchest advocate and enforcer of the feudal hierarchical order. The biggest impact of Baodai's free love is the feudal order, that is, the lack of freedom in life under feudal autocracy. So when Jia Mu knew that Bao Dai was privately committed to life, she killed her without thinking. In fact, the combination of Baodai and Yuchai had little impact on the Jia family. Although Xue Baochai was rich in wealth, she was the daughter of a merchant after all, and her status was far inferior to that of Lin Daiyu, an official. Some people may say that Lin Daiyu's frailty and illness are a negative point, but Lin Daiyu's physical weakness came after her love failed. Before that, he was not at a big disadvantage in physical competition with Baochai. After all, Sister Bao also takes Lengxiang Pills all year round. Therefore, the greatest impact of Bao Dai's love affair is not the interests of the Jia family, but the fundamental feudal autocratic order. As the largest parent in the Jia family, of course he was a clear-cut opponent. Although Jia Mu's love for Daiyu is real, this love is in quotation marks and has impurities. Once it conflicts with her own interests, Jia Mu will be left behind. Therefore, Jia Mu, who was the final decision-maker to break up Bao Dai, could not be cleared away no matter how hard she tried. If it is cleared up, the fundamental contradictions and conflicts in the entire Red Mansions will disappear. If the conflict in Red Mansion disappears, the foundation of fan fiction will be lost. Secondly, Jia's mother was good at house fighting but lacked foresight. As the actual most powerful person in the Jia family, she was mainly responsible for the decline of the Jia family. Although Jia Mu sometimes seems to be very kind, for example, she keeps Yingchun and Xichun by her side, and she is very kind to people like Grandma Liu. But as the leader of the Jia family, she is very unqualified. The unprincipled doting on Jia Lian, Jia Baoyu and others, the unabashed revelation that Jia Cong and Jia Huan were different from the concubines, and the visible partiality towards the eldest and second wife can all be seen as manifestations of her short-sightedness. It would be an understatement to say that he is short-sighted. Based on the above, the author quickly makes the protagonist's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get married, so the novel lacks the fundamental motivation to advance, and the plot becomes mediocre.
