" red Lou Meng " one book, the character is numerous, use up number hard; Among them lifelike vivid person, also count with 10 plan. However opposite at grand sight those a thousand pieces of gold beautiful woman inside garden, more those who suck eyeball still is one horn of Liu grandmother. Although she is the fabaceous mustard besides a thousand li only small, but the conduct behavior like her scene drama, make she comes on the stage however surpass Gu Fu many men and women, position of leading role of race to control, this kind excellent not 2 people are set by the lifelike of Cao Gong depict, each detail sees an author carry alone to the craftsmanship of this part.
《红楼梦》一书，人物众多，难以尽数；其中栩栩如生又有血有肉者，也数以十计。然而相对于大观园里面那些千金佳人，更为吸睛的还是刘姥姥一角。她虽只是千里之外的豆芥之微，但她情景剧般的行为举止，却使她一出场就胜过贾府众男女，抢占主角位置，这种绝妙的不二人设被曹公刻画的活灵活现，每一个细节都可见作者对此角色的匠心独运。
Look from figure figure, liu grandmother is an as disparate as aroma of the cosmetics in garden of Gu Fu grand sight female horn. To regarding the Liu of countrywoman as grandmother, the content of the houseful in grand sight garden resembles is in dazzling win honour for, everything all is the novelty that had not seen. Hear be used to then the Liu grandmother of clay breath is obliged to be at a loss the ground " nod smack pray to Buddha " . This kind of reaction is plain true, " Amitabha " , it is she gives her ease ball. Liu grandmother seem is full of the artist of life breath, the idiom that receives with, adage and phoenix elder sister echo each other, call another good play. Write a story, taste eggplant dried fish, drunk lie happy red courtyard, liu grandmother exert all over skill, become farce protagonist, performance of exert to one's utmost, laugh for Bo Jun only.
从人物形象上看，刘姥姥是一个与贾府大观园里脂粉香气截然不同的女角。对于作为村妇的刘姥姥，大观园里满屋之物都像是在耀眼争光，一切皆是没见过的新奇。于是闻惯了泥土气息的刘姥姥只得不知所措地“点头咂嘴念佛”。这种反应质朴又真实，一句“阿弥陀佛”，便是她给自己的安心丸。刘姥姥好似一个富有生活气息的艺术家，用一句接一句的熟语、谚语和凤姐一唱一和，唱出一出又一出好戏。编故事，品茄鲞，醉卧怡红院，刘姥姥使出浑身解数，成为闹剧主角，卖力表演，只为博君一笑。
Cao Gong does not have depict Liu grandmother to have how to work hard in this performance, between the lines is be laughing and playing and joy completely, but it is that feel sad that the nobody pays hard rear. To Gu Fu, a string of coin is scant mention, arrived when this string of money however when Liu grandmother hand is medium, be written down by firmly however a loving-kindness, aux would rather finally sell cropland to sell the ground to also want redemptive clever a general term for young women, this is her tell favour graph newspaper. The way of the world at the heart, play the part of ugly everybody to " interesting " . Liu grandmother looks be like is around the move is tragic the colour, rock-bottom unimportant person that fills feel sad again, be in however of everybody mock and in be laughing and playing, only alone this old lady lives so that understand to be connected again to appear.
曹公没有描写刘姥姥在这场表演中有多么辛苦，字里行间满是嬉笑和欢乐，但背后则是小人物努力付出的那份心酸。对贾府来说，一串钱币是不足挂齿的，然而当这串钱到了刘姥姥手中时，却被牢牢记作一份恩情，最后宁愿卖田卖地也要赎回巧姐，这便是她的知恩图报。人情世故了于心，扮丑人人都道“趣”。刘姥姥看似是个围绕着悲剧色彩、又充满心酸的底层小人物，然而在众人的嘲弄和嬉笑中，唯独这个老太太活得明白又通透。
Liu grandmother is one side mirror. Cao Gong refracts another arrangement that gives riches and honor with her eye not only, let " riches and honour " with " poor and lowly " generation speaks, more take the other one side that gave other part with her. Be like merchant mother, she all one's life high position and great wealth of drink to the dregs, saw a kind of as disparate as riches and honour life state from Liu grandmother body however, it is difficult that experience arrived in Gu Fu some vitality; Be like black jade again, ferial li of depressed sadness, see Liu grandmother, say she is continuously however " mother locust " ; Compare a person again, liu grandmother is drunk lie happy when red courtyard, it is she helps conceal, reveal benevolence...
刘姥姥是一面镜子。曹公不仅用她的眼睛折射出富贵的另一个层次，让“富贵”与“贫贱”产生对话，更用她照出了其他角色的另一面。就如贾母，她一辈子享尽荣华富贵，却从刘姥姥身上看到了一种与富贵截然不同的生命状态，体会到了贾府中难有的生命力；又如黛玉，平日里忧愁伤感，见到刘姥姥，却直说她是“母蝗虫”；再比袭人，刘姥姥醉卧怡红院时，是她帮忙隐瞒，彰显善心……
Not 2 people are set, craftsmanship is built alone. Blood of with one one's heart of Cao public use up all one's resources goes designing depict such with Gu Fu " riches and honour " contrary " poor " part, what show fully is a feudal society completely oppress stiflingly and manacle after the flesh, but she is why a glisten light heavenly body in this darkness society? From Liu grandmother in this one part, the only not intentional acid that we can numerate, the broadness that more one belongs to a poor only bright with able-bodied vitality, be just like the eggplant dried fish that lost aubergine taste, after all unlike aubergine.
不二人设，匠心独造。曹公倾尽心血去设计刻画这样一个与贾府之“富贵”对立的“贫穷”角色，透露出来的全是封建社会令人窒息的压迫和世俗的束缚，但她又何尝不是这黑暗社会里一颗闪闪发光的亮星呢？从刘姥姥这一角色中，我们能读出的不只有心酸，更有一份专属于穷人的阔朗和强健的生命力，就好比失了茄子味的茄鲞，终究不像个茄子。(文/李玲娜)
