What do other people in the hotel remember about Kong Yiji? What's the problem?

People in the hotel think that Kong Yiji is a scholar, living in a mess and in rags. It reflects the poison of feudal culture and education to scholars and accuses the evil of the imperial examination system. It reveals that the feudal society is indifferent, people's mental state is indifferent and numb, and society is cruel to the unfortunate, which reflects the decay and morbidity of feudal society from one side. The introduction of Xianheng Hotel at the beginning of the novel explains the social environment in which Kong Yiji lives, and renders two completely different social groups, namely, short-sleeved gangs and long-sleeved gangs, showing serious class opposition and cold relationship between people. Such a snobbish, cold and hypocritical social environment renders a cold and sad social atmosphere for us, which lays the foundation for the development of the plot and indicates the inevitability of the tragedy of the characters. Xianheng Hotel can be said to be the epitome of the dark semi-feudal and semi-colonial society in China at that time.
