"The new three are the first to debut"

Lin Daiyu

Lin Daiyu is the only daughter of Lin Ruhai and Jia Min. She has been studying and literate with the teacher since she was a child. Because of her intelligence and photographic memory, her poems and poems have led her to surpass all the sisters in the Grand View Garden, and she has been called a talented woman. Because his mother died, his maternal grandmother Shi Taijun was afraid that he would be lonely, so he took him to live with Jia Mansion. Soon her father also passed away, and Lin Daiyu became an orphan.

Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu were childhood sweethearts and loved each other. She never advised Baoyu to pursue an official career, but instead watched "The Romance of the West Chamber" with him. She did not grovel or flatter the powerful. When Baoyu gave her the sweat towel that King Beijing had given her, she said it was given to me by some stinky man and I didn't want it, so she refused.

Lin Daiyu was born weak and sickly, and she started taking medicine as soon as she could eat. "Two curved eyebrows that look like a frown but not a dragon, a pair of eyes that look like joy but not joy. The sadness in the eyes teaches the disease of the whole body. The four corners of the trap attract water, and the movement is like a willow supporting the wind. The heart has one more hole than the stem, and the disease is like Xizi wins three points." Lin Daiyu was extremely sensitive because she was living under someone else's roof. Since Qingwen didn't open the door for her, she went to bury the flower in pity. The theory of "a good match" also caused a lot of mental pressure on her. She has a strong self-esteem and is unwilling to be left behind . Every day I shed "tears a little and gasp a little", and I can't let go all day long. Lin Daiyu was sentimental and cried at least two or three times a day. Most of her tears were for Baoyu. The book explains that Lin Daiyu is the reincarnation of Fairy Jiangzhu [UH3] (Jia Baoyu was originally a waiter of Shenying in heaven, and later came to the world with a monk to experience calamities ("I live here, the peak of Qinggeng. Where I travel, Hongmeng Space. Whoever swims with me, who will follow me? I am boundless and boundless, and I will return to the wilderness"), and Lin Daiyu is a plant of purple grass watered by Shenying's waiter on the bank of Sansheng Stone on the bank of Linghe River in the west in the sky, to repay the dew. En, came to the mortal world together with the attendants of Shenying.), because Fairy Jiangzhu once made a vow: "He is the benefit of nectar, and I don't have the water to repay it. Since he has been a human being in the next life, I will also be a human being in the next life, but I will I can repay him with all the tears in my life, and I can't repay him." Finally, Lin Daiyu died in tears.

The actor who plays Lin Daiyu, Chen Xiaoxu, was originally a student at the Anshan Theater. She secretly sent a thick self-recommendation letter to the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions", which contained her photos. The trace of melancholy passing between her eyebrows is Lin Daiyu's characteristic. . Chen Xiaoxu said that participating in the filming of "Dream of Red Mansions" was the best memory in her life, because "Dream of Red Mansions" allowed her to understand a special life. Chen Xiaoxu's original personality was very similar to Lin Daiyu's. In the eyes of others, she was a weird, angular, and intolerant "Sister Lin." In the three years after filming "Dream of Red Mansions", except for her role as Cousin Mei in "Family Spring and Autumn", no one approached her for filming, because no matter how she acted, people thought she was still "Sister Lin". At that time, she was really indistinguishable from "Lin Daiyu".

Chen Xiaoxu spent three years in confusion. During this period, she moved many times and made many attempts to adapt to this real society, but the result was failure. After reflection, Chen Xiaoxu believes that people's wisdom is limited when they are confused, and the decisions they make are sometimes even "stupid" choices. Finally, based on her creative expertise, she chose the advertising career and opened her own advertising company.

Nowadays, Chen Xiaoxu is nearly forty years old. In addition to the beautiful and smart sister Lin's temperament, she also has an extra sense of tranquility. According to Chen Xiaoxu herself, her current state of mind is not only calmer but also happier than before. It is what people often say, knowing how to be satisfied and then always happy. And all these changes stem from the enlightenment of the sages' classics, or in other words, when she realizes that the sages advocate contentment and constant happiness, and stops the endless pursuit of material desires, only in this way will people's hearts be calm and their thinking will be clear. , wisdom can spring forth, and decisions can finally be wise.

Life is inherently a mixture of suffering and happiness. To be able to deal with sudden heavy blows calmly must be based on a full understanding and cognition of the value and meaning of life. The complete change in his heart is the foundation of Chen Xiaoxu's peaceful appearance. After Chen Xiaoxu adjusted her mentality, she believed that she could face any life challenge calmly, because she knew that "God has the virtue of good life", and if fate dictated, she should accept it happily. Chen Xiaoxu finally said that her wish is that she can become a person who has the ability to help others and try to be more honest with everyone.

Although Chen Xiaoxu has a successful career and a smart life, when people ask her what she most wants others to call her, she still answers: Sister Lin.

Jia Baoyu

Jia Baoyu is the second son of Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang. Because there was a piece of jade in his mouth when he was born, he was named Baoyu, and the Jia family regarded it as a treasure. Jia Baoyu grew up among celebrities, and got along very well with his sisters. According to his words: "Daughters are all flesh and blood made of water, and men are all flesh and blood made of mud." Therefore, his happiest thing is to interact with The sisters are together, but they don't like to have too many interactions with men. In the third chapter of "Dream of Red Mansions", there are two poems about Xijiang Yue, which describe Jia Baoyu. After reading these two words, the appearance, appearance, words, deeds and temperament of Jia Baoyu are vividly displayed on the paper:

First, looking for sorrow and hatred for no reason, sometimes as stupid as crazy. Even though he was born with a good skin, his belly turned out to be rough. He is poor and ignorant of world affairs, and he is too stupid to read articles. If your behavior is eccentric and eccentric, then the world will slander you;

Secondly, wealth does not know how to enjoy life, and poverty is intolerable and desolate. It is a pity that we have failed to live up to the good times and have no hope for our country and our family.
The most incompetent person in the world, unparalleled in ancient and modern times. Send a message to the dandy and the rich, don't imitate this child's shape.

Jia Baoyu, who did not pursue fame and fortune, despised becoming an official, so he dismissed Baochai's advice as "bastard words." Baoyu has a gentle temperament, a straightforward and sincere person, and is extremely generous to her subordinates, especially her sisters who grew up together. Living in such a big family, his frankness cannot be tolerated by the vain, greedy, and deceitful people around him. Whenever Baoyu reveals his true nature, he will be scolded as "talking crazy again!" In Daiyu's case, Before meeting Baoyu, Mrs. Wang commented on Baoyu like this, "He talks sweetly at one moment, is arrogant at other times, and is crazy and stupid at other times. I can't believe him." People often say, "Everyone is drunk, but I am sober." Maybe Jia Baoyu was in such a situation. In order to win a smile from his maid Qingwen, Jia Baoyu even allowed Qingwen to tear the paper fan he carried with him into pieces in public. As for Sister Lin in Baoyu's eyes, he loved her with all his heart. Similarly, Lin Daiyu also knew music and taste. In addition to scorning the pursuit of power, she also surrounded Baoyu's true love with an infinite and pure heart. Their shadows can be seen everywhere in the Grand View Garden, and the scene where Bao and Dai read "The Romance of the West Chamber" together left a deep impression on people.

Jia Baoyu was originally a waiter of Shenying in heaven, and then he came to the world with a monk to experience calamities ("I live here, at the peak of Qinggeng. Where I travel, there is the vast space. Whoever travels with me, I will follow.") "Boundless and boundless, returning to the wilderness"), and Lin Daiyu was a plant of purple grass watered by Shenying's waiter at the Sansheng Stone on the bank of Linghe River in the west. In order to repay the kindness of watering dew, she came to the mortal world together with Shenying's waiter. When Baoyu met Baoyu for the first time, "Daiyu was taken aback and thought to herself: 'It's so strange, it seems like I've seen her there before, how familiar she is!'" Baoyu was the same way, and said with a smile: "This sister I I've seen them before." After living in Jia's house, Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu had similar interests and similar aspirations. When they grew up, they developed a sincere and pure love for each other.

The actor who plays Jia Baoyu is Ouyang Fenqiang, who was an actor at the Emei Film Studio at the time. Because he has a baby face with a lot of makeup, he looks like a natural "Jia Baoyu". Ouyang Fenqiang believes that participating in the filming of "Dream of Red Mansions" was like taking a class in the university hall of life. He learned how to behave. This unforgettable experience also played a major turning point in his future life.

Due to the great success of "Dream of Red Mansions" and his own image, Ouyang Fenqiang believed that it would be difficult to break through the role of "Jia Baoyu" in this life, so he began to try to become a director when he was 24 years old. In the following twenty years, he made many TV shows and movies, and won almost all the awards. But what people still remember is that Ouyang Fenqiang is "Jia Baoyu", not which movie he directed. works.

Ouyang Fenqiang's own experience is somewhat similar to the Jia Baoyu he plays. Xue Baochai became pregnant soon after marrying Jia Baoyu, but Jia Baoyu became a monk, so it was expected that he would not be able to enjoy the joy of having children. In 1992, Ouyang Fenqiang's premature son died a few months later. He also failed to enjoy the blessings of being surrounded by his parents and children.

Nowadays, Ouyang Fenqiang, who works as a director at Sichuan TV Station, has emerged from the gloom. Just like in "A Dream of Red Mansions", his free and easy approach to life can be seen in his conduct. He no longer has the mentality of making an earth-shattering career, but he wants to play a role in society. For him, directing is just a job, and he must do it well.

Xue Baochai

Xue Baochai is the niece of Mrs. Wang and the aunt of Jia Baoyu. She was born in the Xue family of the four major families in Jinling. She is a daughter of a wealthy family. Because his brother was involved in a life-threatening lawsuit, the whole family went to Beijing to temporarily live in Jia's house. Later, he became deeply loved by Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang. Because she was equipped with a gold lock, and Jia Baoyu was also wearing jade, the saying of "gold and jade" spread like wildfire. Xue Baochai has a beautiful jade body, graceful and charming, ice-snow and smart, "most beautiful among all the beauties". She is a well-rounded person, able to meet people from all over the world, and has a profound power, which can win over people's hearts. Because Jia Yingchun was weak and incompetent, she pawned her cotton robe to please her servants. The pawnshop happened to be owned by the Xue family, so Xue Baochai secretly deducted the pawn ticket, took back the cotton robe and gave it back to Yingchun. Yingchun was grateful. Xue Baochai is not only scheming but also ruthless. When the girl Jin Chuaner died unjustly and Mrs. Wang was afraid of ghost revenge, Xue Baochai advised: "It is not a pity to commit suicide only if you are stupid."

Xue Baochai repeatedly persuaded Baoyu to get a good name and get an official position, but Baoyu denounced him as "bastard talk. In the end, he married Jia Baoyu justifiably." It's a pity that Yongxu's talent is poor. "The jade belt hangs in the forest, and the golden hairpin is buried in the snow." But destiny cannot be changed by human beings. There is a time in life, but there is no time in life. Don't force it. After marriage, Baoyu's soul is still with Sister Lin. In the end, he abandoned his home and his wife because he had no similar interests, and became a monk, leaving Xue Baochai to sleep alone on the pillow. "Both Taoists are a good match between gold and jade, and I only remember the alliance between wood and stone." Facing the sky, you can see the crystal clear snow in the mountains; never forget the lonely forest in the fairyland. Lamenting the world, there is a fly in the ointment. Today Fang Xin believes that even if the case is raised with eyebrows raised, it will be difficult to settle the matter. No matter how ruthless it is, it is also touching. "

Baochai is played by Zhang Li, a dancer from the Chengdu Military Region's Zhanqi Art Troupe. During the fitting, she was found to be the best candidate for Baochai. Zhang Li's inner expressiveness is very good. After performing "Dream of Red Mansions", he went to study in Toronto, Canada in 1990. While studying abroad, I filmed TV series that focused on international students. She is now engaged in real estate investment. According to Zhang Li, she will tell the audience when she has a happy marriage and family.

Jia Yuanchun

Jia Yuanchun is the eldest daughter of Jia Zheng and Mrs. Wang, and the eldest granddaughter of Jia Mu. She was born in the first month of the lunar month, hence her name Yuanchun. She was trained by Jia Mu since she was a child. She was virtuous and kind. Later, she was selected as a female official in the palace and was immediately named a virtuous concubine. When he was enjoying the great favor, Jia Yuanchun was specially allowed to return home to visit his relatives. To this end, the Jia family invested heavily in building the Grand View Garden, a villa for the relatives. In the garden, there are pavilions, pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, using the best of craftsmanship. It is extremely luxurious. Yuanchun felt it was too wasteful.

The episode of the TV series "Dream of Red Mansions" in which the Lunar New Year wedding ceremony is held is a climax in the drama. It not only shows the beauty and magnificence of the Grand View Garden, but also the extreme atmosphere of the festival celebrations of aristocratic families. In the play, through the complicated etiquette of visiting relatives, people can understand the graceful, luxurious and orderly microcosm of the Chinese emperor's family. Yuanchun represents the nobility of the royal family and also brings the royal style.

Yuanchun brought great prosperity to the Jia family, and her fate also affected the rise and fall of the entire family. Yuanchun was still in her prime when she entered the palace, but she was already a member of the royal family when she was elected to the palace. She could not fully enjoy the happiness of living with her family, brothers and sisters. She and the Jia mothers "cry and say a word", describing the palace as "a place that is ultimately boring and not allowed to see people".

After Yuanchun's marriage visit, he had no chance to return home until he died violently in the palace. "It's just the right time to be happy and prosperous, but the hatred of impermanence comes again. With eyes wide open, I throw away everything. I wander around for a long time, and my soul is consumed. Looking at my hometown, the road is far away and the mountains are high. So I tell my parents in my dream: My son's life has entered the underworld, what a family relationship. , we need to step back and get out early!”

The actor who plays Yuanchun is called Cheng Mei. She was originally a salesperson in the cultural and sports department of Xinjiekou Department Store in Nanjing. After filming "A Dream of Red Mansions", she took on several more movies. She later went to the United States to study and obtain a bachelor's degree, and now lives in Jacksonville, Florida. She has a successful career and a happy family.

Jia Tanchun

Jia Tanchun was the third child born to Jia Zheng and Aunt Zhao. Because she attaches great importance to the concept of feudal hierarchy, she is extremely shy about not being the daughter of Mrs. Wang. She even despises and alienates her biological mother, Aunt Zhao, on weekdays. She is smart and capable. Apart from Wang Xifeng, she is the only one in Jia's family. When Wang Xifeng was ill, she was in charge of the affairs of the family, taking care of everyone from top to bottom. "Talent comes from being shrewd and ambitious, and I was born in the last days when my fortune was on the decline. I shed tears on the Qingming Festival and watched the riverside, thousands of miles away in the east wind, just a dream away." In the end, he could not escape the master of fate, and was appointed by the court to marry a foreigner to relieve the trouble of the war.

Jia Tanchun is played by Dongfang Wenying. She is a fast-talking girl with an aggressive personality, which fits the role of Tanchun very well in the play. Dongfang Wenying vividly expresses Tanchun's strength and ability.

Shi Xiangyun

Shi Xiangyun was the grand-niece of Jia's mother, Shi Taijun. Although she was born into a wealthy family, her parents died and she had no one to care for her. Fortunately, she had a cheerful personality, was outspoken, dared to speak out, and was open-minded. Although Shi Xiangyun and Lin Daiyu have similar life experiences, they have completely different personalities. One is magnanimous and the other is suspicious. Shi Xiangyun once said, I am in the same situation as you, but I am not as narrow-minded as you. With the decline of the Jia family, Xiangyun's fate also changed, and finally she was bought into a brothel. "What's the point of being rich and rich? When I was a baby, my parents were against me. I opened my eyes to look at the slanting light, and the water of the Xiangjiang River passed by. Chu Yunfei. When I was a baby, my parents sighed that they were both dead. Living in the beautiful bush, who knows how to be pampered? Fortunately, I was born to be a hero and magnanimous. I have never cared about the personal relationship between my children. Just like the moonlight and the wind shine in the jade hall. I am worthy of a talented and beautiful man, and I will win a long life. I will definitely lose the rough shape of my childhood. In the end, the clouds will disappear in Gaotang. , the Xiangjiang River has dried up. This is the number of ups and downs in this world, so why be sad in vain!"

Guo Xiaozhen, who plays Shi Xiangyun, has disabled parents who have shouldered the burden of the family's life since she was a child. She is an actress from Huangmei Drama Troupe of Anhui Province. She once performed in "The Cuckoo Girl" and was spotted by the director and joined the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions". After filming, he got married and had children. She once played Tan Yuling in the TV series "The Last Emperor", but she finally returned to her hometown of Anqing. ( Guo Xiaozhen was one of the candidates for Baochai at first, and finally played the role of Xiangyun. Her parents are both disabled, and they have shouldered the burden of the whole family's life since she was a child. But what is rare is that she has not become depressed and decadent, and she has worked hard to achieve herself. After drama school, she performed in "The Cuckoo Girl", had a calendar shot, was spotted by the director, and joined the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions". After filming, she wanted to continue developing in the entertainment industry, but was unwilling to be a "Beijing drifter". She wanted to be admitted to an art school, but failed both times because of cultural classes. She could have chosen to attend at her own expense, but her family still needed her support, so she had to return to her hometown in Anqing and write down all the diaries she had written during the three years on the set. I got burned, got married and had children, and went out with my husband two more times, singing in Hainan karaoke bars, and looking for movies to film in Beijing. I also got some roles, such as Tan Yuling in Chen Daoming's version of the TV series "The Last Emperor", but in the end I returned Hometown Anqing.

Miaoyu

Miaoyu, originally a young lady from an official family, was frail and sick, so she had to lead her to practice in order to live longer and be blessed. After her master passed away, she was invited by the Jia family to live in Guancui'an. Miaoyu was handsome, arrogant, and very fond of cleanliness. She found the tea set used by Grandma Liu too dirty and asked people to throw it away, but she kept her usual The "green jade bucket" used for drinking tea was given to Baoyu for tea. After Jia's house was confiscated, Miaoyu's fate also plummeted. 'If you want to be clean, how can you ever be clean? The clouds are not necessarily empty. Poor gold and jade, eventually sinking into the mud. 'The temperament is as beautiful as Lan, and the talent is as fragrant as immortals. It is rare for people to be solitary by nature. You say that eating meat is fishy and rotten, and you are disgusted by the beauty of the world; but you don't know that you will be jealous of those who are superior, and you will be disgusted by those who live in a clean world. It's a pity that the old people in the ancient Qingdeng Palace have failed to live up to the red and pink vermilion tower! In the end, the dust is still dirty and contrary to one's wishes; just like the flawless white jade is trapped in the mud; why, the prince and grandson lament that they have no chance.

Ji Peijie, who plays Miaoyu, was chosen because of her melancholy and resentful eyes. She was originally a temporary worker in a leather shoe factory in Beijing. After filming "A Dream of Red Mansions", she changed her name to Ji Yu because she felt that her destiny had changed. Lin Daiyu and Chen Xiaoxu also became Buddhists.

Jia Yingchun

Jia Yingchun was the second child born to Jia She and his concubine. Because of her timidity, cowardice and incompetence, she was known as the "Second Wood". Her servants stole her golden phoenix jewelry to gamble, but she not only dared not punish her , and even pawned his cotton robe to please his servants. Because of her habit of swallowing her anger and being submissive, she was finally sold to the Sun family by Jia She for 5,000 taels of silver to pay off the debt, and was tortured to death soon afterwards. "Zhongshan wolf, a ruthless beast. It doesn't even think about the reason for that day. Blindly, arrogant, extravagant, lustful and greedy. Looking at it, the beauty of the Hou family is the same as that of Pu Liu; the one who practices it, the daughter of the palace is as dirty. Sighing the beauty of the soul, one It's a long ride."

The first person to play the Spring Festival is Jin Lili. She is a farmer in the suburbs of Hangzhou. She once worked at a radio station. During the filming of "Dream of Red Mansions", she worked hard to pass the Central Academy of Drama because the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" could not solve the problem of rural household registration for her. , so director Wang Fulin had no choice but to reluctantly allow Jin Lili to leave the crew. Jin Lili is still active in the entertainment industry.

The second character who plays the role of "Yingchun" is named Mou Yi, who is a clerk in the labor department of Chengdu Auto Transport Company. She was discovered on the streets of Chengdu. After filming "Dream of Red Mansions", I went into business.

Jia Xichun

Jia Xichun, Jia Zhen's younger sister, moved in with Jia's mother because her mother died young and her father Jia Jing only knew how to make alchemy and had no one to take care of her. She had developed a withdrawn character since she was a child. Cold." Her character is unique. After seeing the tragic endings of Yuanchun, Yingchun, and Tanchun, I had the idea of rebirth, and finally became a nun. "After seeing through the three springs, what will happen to the pink peach and willow trees? Destroy this youth and find the pure peace. How about the peach blossoms in the sky and the apricots in the clouds? In the end, who can see the autumn? Look at that, The people in the poplar village are sobbing, and the ghosts are moaning under the green maple forest. Moreover, the grass is covering the graves. This is the toil of the poor yesterday and the torment of the rich today, and the torment of spring and autumn. Who can escape the calamity of life and death like this? ? I heard that the precious tree in the west is whirling, and it bears the fruit of longevity."

The actor who plays Xichun, Hu Zehong, comes from a family of Shaoxing opera. Due to her lively nature, cheerful personality, and outspokenness, she was changed from Lin Daiyu's candidate to Xichun. She played Xichun to life. She and her husband went out to work together twice, and sang in Hainan karaoke halls successively. ( The actor of Xichun, "Hu Zehong", was also Lin Daiyu's candidate. "Hu Zehong" was born in a Yue opera family. She studied under Wang Wenjuan when she was studying. Her petite figure always made her stand out on the stage. She played the role of Xiaohuadan, such as Qingwen and Zijuan. The teacher of her Beijing Hongqi Yue Opera Troupe strongly recommended her to the crew. Unexpectedly, she, a "girl professional", was asked to audition for the role of Daiyu and Baochai. She once The candidate who was classified as "Lin Daiyu" was ultimately rejected because of her lively nature. From Hu Zehong's stills and daily life photos, I feel that she is relatively sweet, and she is indeed not suitable for playing Daiyu. Source: http://ent.xaonline.com/new /20069/content_18398.html )

Wang Xifeng

Wang Xifeng is the wife of Jia Lian. Jia Lian just took care of some housework for Jia Zheng at first. Later, Wang Xifeng married into the Jia family and won the favor of Mrs. Wang and Jia's mother. Because she was smart and capable, she became the head of hundreds of people. She is charming and beautiful, with a slender figure and a fierce personality, especially her pair of red and triangular eyes and two willow-leaf eyebrows, which will make the servants shudder when they see her. She was flattering in every possible way to Jia Mu, Mrs. Wang, etc., but she was vicious, ruthless and merciless to her servants. She can seduce and tease her nephews such as Jia Rong, whom she likes, but Jia Rui, who she doesn't like, will kill him by "poisoning the lovesickness trap". Her greed for money was also endless. She "took power in the Iron Kan Temple " and risked two lives for only three thousand taels of silver. She borrowed money by delaying monthly payments, and her greed for money also accelerated the demise of the Jia family. Wang Xifeng's jealousy was so strong that she forced Sister You and her unborn child to death. What she often said was, "I never believe in retribution from the underworld. Whatever happens, I can do it as long as I say." The agency was too clever and ended up counting Qingqing's life! The heart was broken during life, and the nature is ethereal after death. People who live in a rich family are content; eventually there will be a family that dies and everyone goes their separate ways. It's a waste of time to hang my heart for half a lifetime, just like a long dream in the middle of the night. Suddenly, it was like a building falling down, and it was like a dim light that was about to burn out. ah! A moment of joy and sudden sadness. Sigh, the end of the world is uncertain! "You must know that in the cycle of cause and effect, good and evil will be rewarded. Her only good deed (rescuing Grandma Liu with twenty taels of silver) saved the life of her daughter Qiao Jie.

No one can compare to Wang Xifeng played by Deng Jie. Although she is only 1.58 meters tall, because she is a student of Sichuan Opera, her movements are very much like what people imagine Wang Xifeng to be. The director immediately decided to cast her in the leading role. She brought Wang Xifeng to life and also vividly demonstrated the grandma who is the head of a big family. Chen Xiaoxu, who plays Lin Daiyu, said that Deng Jie and Wang Xifeng are exactly the same in terms of "financial management". I remember that Chen Xiaoxu and Deng Jie, who became famous for starring in "Dream of Red Mansions", sometimes went to acupoints to make money. Chen Xiaoxu's approach was to spend half and save half, while Deng Jie would spend all the money earned. Locked all the money into the cash box, and then sighed: "I have no money again"!

Sister Jia Qiao

Sister Jia Qiao, the daughter of Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng, was born on the seventh day of July, which coincided with the taboo ghost festival of the ancients. Grandma Liu named her Sister Qiao in order to solve the problem. Wang Xifeng has always been a mean person, but she only helped Grandma Liu with twenty taels of silver. It was this accumulation of virtue that brought blessings to her children and grandchildren. After the Jia family was confiscated, Qiaojie was sold by her uncle. Thanks to Grandma Liu, she rescued her and later married Ban'er. "If the situation is defeated, leave Yunnan and Guizhou. Don't talk about relatives if you forget your family. Occasionally, I help the Liu family and meet a benefactor by chance."

Li Wan

Li Wan, Jia Zhu's widow, Jia Baoyu's sister-in-law. She follows the "three obediences and four virtues" and "it is virtue for a woman not to have talent." She usually takes care of her parents and children, and in her free time, she and her sister-in-law make pornographic videos and recite poems. "The spring breeze of peaches and plums has finished bearing fruit. In the end, they are like a pot of orchids. They are like ice water and jealous of each other. It is useless to joke with others."

The final actor who played Li Wan was Sun Mengquan, who came from the China Radio and Television Troupe.

Qin Keqing

Qin Keqing, Jia Rong's wife, Jia Zhen's daughter-in-law. She died of depression after her affair with her father-in-law Jia Zhen was exposed. "Love in the sky, love in the sea, and love in the body are illusory. When love meets, it will lead to adultery. Any unruly words or unkind words will come out, and the beginning of quarrels will be peaceful."

Zhang Lei, who plays Qin Keqing, was originally Lin Daiyu's choice, but because she was older, she changed to play Qin Keqing. Now she and her husband run a company in the United States and have two children.

The unparalleled elegance has gone with the wind, and the youthful beauty of the past is no longer there. The actors who once performed this classic Red Mansions are also performing real life, joys and sorrows, joys and sorrows; what remains in their hearts is not just beauty. With their youth and memories, the broad traditional Chinese culture and thoughts reflected in "A Dream of Red Mansions" have entered the depths of their hearts and influenced every step of their lives.
