In the afternoon, when Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng were finished, Pinger took out a "big copper basin" to draw water. What does the bronze basin represent in ancient families?

"Copper basin" is just an ordinary thing, and there is no metaphor behind it. However, in the life of China people, bronze vessels once occupied a very important position, even a symbol of wealth. Cao Xueqin's description of bronzes in A Dream of Red Mansions was quite natural at that time, but it represents a lot of content for readers now. In particular, Pinger produced a copper basin behind the affair between Wang Xifeng and Jia Lian, which was hidden behind the affair. This is a profound meaning about wealth.

Just then, I heard a burst of laughter over there, but it was Jia Lian's voice As soon as the door rang, Pinger came out with a big copper basin and told Xi-feng to scoop water in. ?

Pinger took out a big copper basin from the room and ordered Xi-feng to scoop water for Wang Xifeng to clean it. Cao Xueqin intends to highlight the big copper pot, because in the long history of China, until the reform and opening up, copper pots, copper pots and other copper utensils are still important family heritage. It is often passed down from generation to generation and cherished. Entering the 2 1 century, this important musical instrument accompanying China people gradually withdrew from the historical stage. But even now, in many rural areas in Northeast China, North China, Northwest China and Southwest China, there are still places where bronzes are used and passed down. The most common old Beijing instant-boiled mutton in daily life is still not delicious.

The bronze tripod that Lin Daiyu saw in the Rong Xi hall of Jia family is a symbol of Jia family's status. The people of China have created a splendid bronze civilization, and countless bronzes have been handed down from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. The bronze tripod exhibited in Jia's Rong Hall represents Jia's status as a scholar-bureaucrat. On the fifty-fourth occasion, in front of the main hall of Jiajiaancestral hall in Ningguo Mansion, bronze wares and a bronze tripod were displayed to show their respect.

Copper occupies a very important position in the history of China. At one time, copper was used as gold, which was a symbol of money. The "Confucius Brothers" handed down for thousands of years are made of copper. Deng Tong is a famous rich man in history. He is rich because the emperor gave him a bronze mountain, and he can make money privately. Back to the seventy-second, search and Jia Lian despise Jia Lian when property:

Deng Tong is rich because of copper, and bronzes represent wealth in the eyes of the ancients. Pinger's big copper basin can't be used by the rich. More often, it is a dowry.

The "marriage" in A Dream of Red Mansions is the final result. Personally, I think that the so-called "golden marriage" refers to "wealth and heirloom", and Jia's property was finally robbed in the third generation, which should be cursed by "wealth and heirloom died in the third generation". In ancient times, gold and copper were interlinked for a long time. The Jia family are all bronzes, representing their wealth. Pinger took out a huge copper basin, which was nothing to the Jia family, but a lifelong dream to Granny Liu.

Leng Zixing described the Jia family as "Zhong Ming Shi Ding", both of which were made of bronze. After such splendor is doomed to defeat, it is only a sad ending, such as "withered grass and young trees", "cobwebs full of carved beams", "beggars being slandered in an instant" and "living in a smoky alley". It can be seen that prosperity is a "dream" and floating clouds are like passing clouds. For A Dream of Red Mansions, copper has another meaning. All because "Yue Feng Bao Jian" is also made of copper.
