There are few books like this that describe how a wealthy family in the future was repeatedly plundered by domestic slaves and bandits. It is written in detail. It is so meticulous. When the troubled times came, most of the wealthy families were wiped out by internal and external troubles. The ending of the Jia family in the troubled times was very well written, almost exactly the same as the collapse of the Ming Dynasty in the late years. It's much better than Gao E's Dog Tail, and fans of Red Mansions must read it three times.
It's so well written! This is the ending that I think is relatively reasonable. His disgust towards Xue Baochai grew even more. In fact, it was within my expectations that Daiyu was able to organize her servants to fight against the bandits in the face of danger. From the fact that Daiyu taught Xiangling to learn poetry and did not like Li Shangyin, it can be seen that she did not like poems with gorgeous rhetoric. Only the sentence "Leave the lotus leaves to listen to the sound of rain" can reflect her integrity and pride. Unexpectedly, Didi Cuiting attracted the shrimp beard bracelet. She was responsible for the raids on the Grand View Garden and the robbery by bandits. She came up with a counter-intentional plan that resulted in Xiao Hong's death. How could a person like Xue Baochai be included in the official list?
After watching "Zhiyanzhai's version of Dream of Red Mansions", there is a lack of follow-up episodes. Looking at "Guiyou's version of Dream of Red Mansions", I got too many answers and fully described the tragic situation of decline, which makes people sigh. It seems that the ending of this book has already been decided before there are many foreshadowings at the beginning, which is also the closest to the ideas that the original work wants to express.
The Elegy of China uses a family as a metaphor for the country, a true description of the love between children, and a hidden tragedy of the Chinese civilization where the country is broken and the family is destroyed.
When will the physical book, a complete set of 108 chapters, be released? So looking forward to it!!
The entire last 28 chapters are full of plot and climax. The fall of the Jia family is far more tragic than other sequels. From Yuanchun being executed by the emperor, Jia Huan killing his father, to Daiyu hanging herself, Miaoyu falling into prostitution, and Baochai finally being abandoned by Jia Yucun, the fate of all characters has reached the ultimate collapse, completely tearing apart the poetic beauty of the Grand View Garden in the first 80 chapters. Reading it will bring a strong emotional impact. It has wrapped up almost all the confusing threads in the first eighty chapters, and the endings of most of the characters can be closely matched with the verdict and criticism. It does not use "Lan Gui Qifang" to forcefully leave a tender escape route for the story like Cheng Gao's sequel, and completely achieves the sense of complete destruction of "the white land is really clean". Many readers feel that this is the cruel truth that "Dream of Red Mansions" should have.
I hope to see more books about this kind of real history in the future. I would rather face the pain than live in the Truman world woven by barbarians.
This result is good
The vernacular "Dream of Red Mansions"!
