"A Dream of Red Mansions" was originally called "The Story of the Stone" and also has other names such as "The Twelve Hairpins of Jinling". The book is based on the four major families of Jia, Shi, Wang, and Xue, with the love tragedy of Bao and Dai as the main line. It narrates the intricate personnel entanglements and conflicts between Jia Jiarong and Ning's father and son, brothers, wives and concubines, and masters and servants in terms of marriage, morality, culture, education, property, etc. It truly and typically reflects the life of the declining nobles in feudal society, and depicts a picture of social life at the end of feudal society: the darkness of politics, the corruption of officialdom, the decline of social customs, and the decline of people's hearts... The whole book is like a perspective mirror, reflecting the various human conditions in the society at that time, so it is known as the "encyclopedia" for understanding and understanding China's feudal society.
