Why did Daiyu change the maid's name given by Grandmother Jia to Zijuan? What fate did Daiyu imply?

Zi Juan is Mu Dan's favorite maid in A Dream of Red Mansions. She is "sentimental". She is the second-class maid of Grandmother Jia. When Daiyu was six or seven years old, because of her mother's death, she had to leave her father in Jia's house and give it to Daiyu by her grandmother. From then on, the girl's fate was the same as that of Daiyu, and she was called the master servant, feeling like her sister. Zijuan also said that "it is ten times better than that brought by Suzhou".

Many people have analyzed the loyalty and wisdom of Zijuan, and Mu Dan Jiuzi just wants to analyze its name. Did Jia Mu or Dai Yu change their names? If Daiyu changed it, why did she change it to Zijuan?

At first, it was called a parrot, which conformed to the characteristics of the name of Jia's maid. For example, the beautiful girl, the chief of Jia Mu, is called Yuanyang and has a bird's name. I spent my childhood with Daiyu, and after the eighth time, I became a cuckoo. At present, it is recognized that it was modified by Rhododendron. So who modified it? Mu Dan Jiuzi thought it was actually Daiyu.

Baoyu changed his name to Xiren and Fangguan in the book, and changed Fangguan's name many times, such as "Lu Ye Xiongnu", "Venus Glass" and even called "Wild Donkey". Baochai also changed the names of Xiangling and Yinger, and then Xia Jingui changed Xiangling's name. It can be seen that it is normal for maids to change their names, most of which were changed by their owners, expressing their mood, status and even fate at that time. Xiangyun, for example, is very generous. It was renamed Kwai Guan Wei Camp, which means "Only heroes are true". From this point of view, the name of Zijuan was actually changed by Daiyu, implying the meaning of "cuckoo weeping for blood".

Why did Daiyu change "parrot talk" into "cuckoo cries for blood"? Actually, there is an allusion. There is a saying in Shuo Wen Jia Bu: "The king of Shu committed adultery with his wife, and he died of shame like a bird, and the people of Shu heard about it. They all say that they are in line with the emperor. " It is Du Yu who looks at the emperor here. After Du Yu's death, the locals turned it into a cuckoo to express their nostalgia for Du Yu.

In spring, Daiyu wrote two long-tune, old-fashioned poems, one for mourning and the other for peach blossom. The former has "Du Fu is speechless at dusk", and the latter ends with "Du Yuchun is exhausted and the curtain is empty". These two poems are full of sadness, especially the poem Peach Blossom Walk. Baoyu did not praise them as before, but shed tears. Baoqin joked that she made it herself, but Baoyu didn't believe it. Baochai used the diverse styles of Du Gongbu's poems to prove that Baoqin could also write such poems. Baoyu said with a smile, "That's true, but I know my sister will never allow her to have such a funeral speech. Although my sister has this talent, she will never do it. I can't compare with Sister Lin's funeral. "

You know, this poem has appeared 70 times in total, and it contains the element of "poetic prophecy", that is, it is not far from Daiyu's tearful death, Jia's family being looted and the family being ruined. It is an obvious prediction that "tears are easy to dry when you look at flowers with tears, and tears are exhausted in spring". "Du Yuchun is exhausted, and the curtain is empty." It implies that all flowers will wither in different ways, and Daiyu is the first to wither.

It can also be seen from these two poems that Daiyu actually died in late spring. In late spring, when the cuckoo cries blood, the color of blood is purple. Does Daiyu's change of parrot's name to Zijuan also indicate Daiyu's final death time and fate?
