They oppose the feudal ethics of the social system and are unwilling to violate their conscience for self-protection, so they are not allowed to be secular, and the outcome is either to destroy incense or to become a monk.

Creation background

Cao Xueqin wrote it according to his prosperous old dream in Nanjing in his early years. Because I lived in the western suburbs of Beijing at that time, I was mediocre and accomplished nothing. I suddenly recalled all the girls in my family when I was young, and felt that their knowledge and talents far exceeded their own. I couldn't help feeling ashamed and sorry.

My ancestors established this family business after a narrow escape. In those days, I was happy, but I didn't do my job well and didn't listen to my parents and teachers. As a result, I grew up with nothing and was down and out for half my life. What do you feel in your heart? Write it down.
