The very first paragraph introduces us to Zhenbao,and even before we know anything about his character,we are told that there are two women in his life.They are,significantly,symbolised in ideal form:a white rose (a chaste woman) and a red rose (a passionate woman).In the very next moment,the narrator deems it necessary to comment,somewhat critically:
Isn't that just how the average man describes a chaste widow's devotion to her husband's memory—as spotless,and passionate too?- p.255
When,in the next paragraph,the narrator says “maybe every man has had two such women—at least two”,the assumption of the desirability of both a chaste and a seductive,passionate woman may appear strange to a Western reader.It should be borne in mind that when the story was written (1940s),China had only recently become a republic.Traditional values still held sway.Classical images (for instance the line of a poem by Li Po) are contrasted with mundane,negative images (such as a bloody mosquito):
Marry a red rose and eventually she'll be a mosquito-blood streak smeared on the wall,while the white one is “moonlight in front of my bed”.Marry a white rose,and before long she'll be a grain of sticky rice that's gotten stuck to your clothes; the red one,by then,is a scarlet beauty mark over your heart.- p.255
The classical images come across as artefacts from another time.The wife is described through the eyes of a married man,as someone annoying.Neither a passionate woman nor a chaste woman,once she becomes a wife,can hope to remain romanticised in his mind.In each case the mistress,on the other hand,is idealised.This is not simple hypocrisy on the man's part.There is an indirect co-dependency between these descriptions:the romantic memory of his mistress is like the spice in curry,covering the underlying rotten meat that he wants to avoid tasting
