贾雨村 / Jia Yucun

日谈串台｜红楼梦：还是可以读一读的 names 贾雨村 as a clearer bad actor inside [[HongLouMeng|《红楼梦》]] than gray figures such as [[XuePan|薛蟠]] or [[JiaLian|贾琏]]. The episode also mentions him as possibly connected to the [[JiaFamilyHousehold|贾府]]’s final downfall.

His role in this source is therefore comparative. Jia Yucun helps the hosts show that moral judgment in the novel has degrees: not every flawed male character is the same kind of danger, and the social world can contain spoiled foolishness, gendered vulgarity, and more actively corrupt careerism at once.
