Features: In fact, Mr. Xueqin once sighed deeply, "Who can understand the meaning behind it," highlighting an "enigma" — an expectation or call for later generations to explore the unprecedented, rare, and colossal contradiction he had set up: on one side, "absurd words," and on the other, "bitter tears." Both share the same fate as the young, what is the matter? And how to unravel the "enigma" of this "contradiction"? So without overestimating myself, I wanted to try to see if I could take some initial steps to "solve" this strange and unimaginable "puzzle," and that's all. In fact, what is called "Red Studies" is nothing more than solving the peculiar connotation of "both absurd and bitter." — Or to put it another way: Dream of the Red Chamber is merely a novel; you can open the book and appreciate or comment on it freely as you feel. When Cao Xueqin left this book behind, he also left the world with an unprecedented contradiction.
