"Women's friendships are all conditional. Under the same circumstances, in the case of economic conditions, emotional encounters, and work performance that are similar to each other, if the atmosphere is relatively consistent, women are very close, and the intimacy is so close to each other. The feeling of a confidant. Once a piece begins to change, a woman's mentality will also be out of balance. It
is impossible for a woman and a man to become a true friend. If you go farther, it is called a good relationship; if you go closer, then I have another idea. In
this way, women have no friends."

This is a passage from Jiechen's novel "Poisoning", a very sad conclusion, maybe it is correct. Every woman is lonely, selfish, her own defender, fighting for herself.

Zhuo Yun is a woman who fights for herself.


Life experience:
Zhuo Yun's net worth background is not clearly explained in the work, but her appearance as a woman in a feudal family has a representative meaning. Zhuo Yun is nothing special, there are too many women like her, she is just one of them.

Image:
Zhuo Yun has gentle eyebrows and eyes, is demure and elegant, and is delicate and gentle. Zhuo Yun's appearance is not clearly depicted in the work, but from Song Lian's words, "Women like Zhuo Yun are easy to be liked by men, and women will not hate her too much." We can infer.
As a result, Zhuo Yun has a unique combat advantage. Her kind eyes are the cover for her insidious intentions. She smiled again and again, but from time to time she gave people a fatal blow.
Song Lian and Yu Ru have a grudge because of the eldest young master Feipu. Zhuo Yun cares about persuading her clearly, but secretly provokes each other, lest the world will not be in chaos.
Zhuo Yun's daughter, Yi Yun, was beaten, and she took this to show her power, and she vowed to investigate and find someone to identify Mei Shan.
When Zhuo Yun was cutting her hair, Song Lian cut her ear. She did not hold him accountable in front of Song Lian, and she was still as close as a sister, but she complained bitterly to the master.
A sword with a honey belly, ulterior motives, and a knife hidden in a smile, these are the faces of Zhuo Yun.
Zhuo Yun lived shrewdly in this feudal mansion. She was well versed in the rules of survival and various rules, and she abide by these rules and rely on them. Relying on these rules, she killed Mei Shan and drove Song Lian crazy. In this house, Zhuo Yun is a terrible fighter hidden behind a kind face, but behind Zhuo Yun is a more terrible feudal ethics, they support Zhuo Yun and kill for Zhuo Yun.

Attitude:
There is a book called "Attitude is Everything", which is an exaggeration. Zhuo Yun is definitely an outstanding self-attitude controller, but not only can she not decide everything, but she is also manipulated by the feudal ethics.
Zhuo Yun's attitude towards people and things is quite measured.
For Song Lian, this newcomer, Zhuo Yun showed great enthusiasm in person. Greet her as a sister and give her silk. Behind the scenes, Yan'er was instructed to curse Songlian with witchcraft. This kind of smile hides the knife, Zhuo Yun copes with it flexibly and freely.
For Mei Shan, she fought openly and secretly, just to keep her status. Mei Shan is prettier than her and can sing. Thanks to Mei Shan's offending temper, the master would not be completely inclined towards Mei Shan. So Zhuo Yun showed more and more virtue and virtue. Secretly speaking ill of Mei Shan. Mei Shan is pungent, Zhuo Yun is generous; Mei Shan is charming, Zhuo Yun is honest, Zhuo Yun is the guardian of feudal ethics, and feudal ethics is Zhuo Yun's weapon. Mei Shandu said that she was not Zhuo Yun's opponent.
To the master, she is completely obedient, not willful, and has no temper, in order to serve him well. In order to give birth to a boy ahead of schedule, Zhuo Yun spent money to buy foreign oxytocin needles and burst her vagina; in order to please the master, Zhuo Yun did not hesitate to give up his self-esteem, and he had to serve the master well under the suspicion and contempt of other wives. Such unhesitating abandonment of self is not out of love, but out of a balance of interests. When the master is comfortable, she can be at ease; when the master is satisfied, she can straighten her waist. She lives to live for herself, she fights to fight for herself, but she has to surround herself with a man she doesn't love all day long. Sad but can't give up.



Ending:
Zhuo Yun wins in this war without gunpowder between women, but she can't decide everything. Zhuo Yun is just a pawn in the feudal ethics, a submissive pawn.

Comprehension:
Is Zhuo Yun a villain? She just recognizes the environment and recognizes herself. She will not be young and beautiful forever, and the days of being alone in an empty house are just around the corner; she has no son as a backer, and she can only rely on herself in this cold-blooded feudal compound. She is awake, she understands.
She doesn't learn from Mei Shan, saying that life is like a drama, and being a person is acting. Zhuo Yun lived a real life, she was realistic, she remembered every rule handed down by her ancestors, this was her shackle and her weapon. She used every useful person in the compound to sacrifice her life for herself, and exchanged the life of others for her own, without showing mercy.
She doesn't learn Song Lotus, this new daughter-in-law who has drank foreign ink still has a little shadow of women in the new era. She is not willing to be imprisoned and shackled in the courtyard, so she has a bad temper. She wanted to break free, but was unable to break free. She didn't know what this rotten rule was all about, and it had been swallowed up by this thousand-year-old rule. But Zhuoyun is sober, in this big mansion, she knows how to abide by the rules. She knew that the master would "never let a woman climb on a man's head", and she knew that the master hated women to look at him the most. So Zhuo Yun bowed down to the master, endured humiliation and burdened, and obeyed. Throwing away all the self-esteem of a woman, even if it is an insulting request made by the master, she will accept it all. Song Lian didn't understand what a woman was, but Zhuo Yun knew it very well. She knew that she was a woman in the house, she had to depend on men, and she had to be flattering to men in order to live well and live. The master married a new daughter-in-law, she pretended to be generous, and treated Song Lian with kindness and naturalness, unlike the eldest wife Yu Ru who sprinkled the beads on the ground; unlike Mei Shan who came to grab a man on the wedding night of the new daughter-in-law; Zhuo Yunren All the resentment. She was quiet, down-to-earth, did not act rashly, and waited for the opportunity.

Zhuo Yun is a fighter with long endurance. In the long tug-of-war in the mansion, the eldest wife is old, the third wife is dead, the fourth wife is crazy, and only Zhuo Yun has come to the end. But her grief continued, and in a blink of an eye, the fifth wife, Wen Zhu, was welcomed. Another round of new war begins, Zhuo Yun can't handle it, she is too weak to fight against the entire patriarchal feudal society. She knew that her own daughter called her father's concubine behind her back, and she knew that the master disliked her already loose. She knows that her fate is like this, she is just doing the last powerless struggle, and the sober people are the saddest. Zhuo Yun suppressed his whole life, suppressed his sexuality, suppressed his personality, suppressed himself, and finally became only a symbol in the feudal society. A victor, a tragic victor, a woman who completely lost herself, her life revolved entirely around men, so she won the only final victory, but could not avoid a sad ending. The fifth wife Wenzhu, maybe there will be a sixth wife, a seventh wife... When will Zhuo Yun know that women should not be her enemies.
