What does Jiang Yang's crimson mean?

Jiang Yang is a talented and charming woman writer. Her masterpiece A Dream of Red Mansions has aroused widespread discussion in society. The word "crimson" in her name is said to be taken from the literary work Lisao by Qu Yuan, an ancient celebrity in the Southern Liang Dynasty, which contains two sentences: "White crane in the crimson cloud" and "the voice of yellow crimson". From it, we can see that the word "scarlet" is used to describe something with a beautiful image, symbolizing the quality of beauty and elegance. Therefore, the word "Jiang" in the name appropriately reflects her own cultural accomplishment and creative style.

In addition to the meaning of the word "crimson", Jiang Yang often uses this word in her works. For example, in See Cooking Smoke Again, she wrote that "in the crimson silk curtain, she wears a hairpin and combs her temples", and the word "crimson silk" is used to describe the details of her secluded life, which reflects her grasp and sensitivity to the details and makes people yearn for and imagine this rural life. But sometimes the word "crimson" has some hidden meanings in her works, which need us to read and interpret carefully.

In addition to its literal meaning, Jiang Yang's choice of this word is also easily associated with other cultural connotations. For example, in the folk proverbs of the Three Kingdoms period, there is a saying that "HongLing goes out and no one is disrespectful", which means that it symbolizes elegant taste and achievements, but it actually means just the same as "crimson". In addition, the word "crimson" is also related to the famous calligrapher Huai Su. Huai Su's calligraphy is praised as exquisite and accomplished, which is in perfect harmony with the quality of "crimson". It can be said that the elegance and cultural connotation in the works are inseparable from the word "Jiang".
