As mentioned in the previous lecture, Jia Yuanchun gave the Dragon Boat Festival gifts, and consciously let Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai

Fan two handles; the second is called red musk skewers and two strings; The third is the two ends of the phoenix-tailed Luo - Luo is a kind of Luo

Very thin, but very high-quality textiles; And then there's Fleur - someone blurted out when they heard it

Out said: Second collar. No, it's a collar. It is a kind of mat woven with bamboo silk, a high-grade mat, above

There is a pattern of turnip flowers, why is it a collar? Because it is used by two people, there is no meaning in this

This? There is meaning. And the most meaningful of these kinds of festivals is the red musk string, which can be simplified

Called the red musk deer skewers, this is a very important prop specially designed by the author.

The musk deer is a cervid, but neither male nor female musk deer have horns on their heads, there are

This animal is called the fragrant roe deer, why? The male musk deer has a gland in its hind abdomen

The body secretes a thing, and this thing is called musk. The musk deer is becoming more and more precious as it is

They are scarce and live mainly in Tibet and Tibetan areas bordering Tibet, such as Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan.

Later, some places such as Gansu and even Inner Mongolia also existed in this animal. The use of musk in the past

It's very cruel, first to hunt the male musk deer, and after killing, dig out this sachet from its belly

Musk is obtained. You think, a musk grows to adulthood, it has only one sachet, only one musk,

So in the end, this musk is worth more than gold. Later, I tried to breed musk deer in captivity, and

And the method of taking musk has been improved, so that male musk deer can continue to secrete and produce again after the first harvest

Raw musk, and then to take it, is a little better than the past method, but the musk taken out later, the quality is one

It's not as good as taking it out for the first time. Now scientific research has completely figured out the chemistry of musk

ingredients, so there is artificial musk, which is made by synthetic methods with the same chemical composition as it

Or something like that. Musk is very rare, and it also has two characteristics, one is very fragrant,

It has a strong fragrance and a strange fragrance; Second, it has medicinal value, the aroma can be enlightened, and musk can be used in medicine

Cure many diseases. So, musk is a very precious thing. Mix some more with musk and some others

Materials, especially with red dyes, to make red musk deer strings, it has become very expensive, non-

Often a peculiar kind of counting beads. What is counting beads? It is a string of beads, generally composed of eighteen beads

Yes; People who believe in Buddhism usually wear it on their wrists, hold it in their hands when chanting Buddha, and chant "Amitabha."

Buddha", twist a bead, twist in a loop, twist is equal to counting, accumulating a large number,

In order to express the devotion to the gods and Buddhas, it is called counting beads. The word counting beads is positive in "Dream of Red Mansions".

－１７－

At the end of the twenty-eighth episode, the attacker reported to Jia Baoyu, and she said, "You are the same treasure."

The girl's is the same. Miss Lin and the second, third, and fourth girls only have fans and beads.

Everyone else is gone. There are also "red fan" friends who discussed with me, saying that Lin Daiyu and they are less than the same, no

That phoenix-tailed Luo, there is no water rong, but isn't Lin Daiyu also got the red musk deer skewers? Because she doesn't

Is there a number of beads? But judging from the description in the book, it doesn't look like it, because the attacker reported to Jia Baoyu

said that Daiyu and Ying, Tan, and Xi got the number of beads, and the number of beads Jia Mu also got it, Mrs. Wang and Jia

Zheng and Aunt Xue got it all. Counting beads is a general term for the items worn on the wrist, and the materials used to make counting beads are very

Jade, jade, agate, pearl and sandalwood can be made into several beads, but red musk strings

It is a very special number of beads. A friend who collects antiques told me that he had seen a lot of Qing dynasty ones

Counting beads, but never seen a red musk string of beads, he thinks, this may be only in Cao Xueqin

Something virtual in the artistic imagination. Judging from the description in the early part of the book, the red musk deer string should only be Xue Baochai

And Jia Baoyu has. Because the second half of the twenty-eighth chapter is called "Xue Baochai is ashamed of the red musk deer."

Skewers", it would not be unusual if everyone had red musk deer skewers, so it highlights that Xue Baochai has. She has

What about later? Didn't put it aside and didn't wear it - Jia Baoyu didn't wear it, Jia Baoyu did, but Jia Bao

The jade is not worn, and Jia Baoyu didn't even pick it up and take a closer look after he had it-Xue Baochai took it

put it on, put it on, and it was not very comfortable in her heart, she was "ashamed of the cage". As the text is perused, these places

Fangdu is intriguing and worth pondering.

In the past, there was a saying about the marriage of young men and women, that is, there was an old man under the moon who tied red silk to two people

line, so this couple became a couple. The red musk string is similar to the red silk thread, which has the same metaphorical meaning

This is the meaning of matchmaking and accomplishing good deeds, so Jia Yuanchun expressed one by awarding the Dragon Boat Festival ceremony

is both clear and implicit, that is, to marry Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai. It shows that the red musk deer strings are clearly there

The information pointed out above, because she did not have a clear edict, she wanted to "point to the end" and let the family

The elders to fulfill her wishes. Jia Yuanchun was in the palace at the time, obviously not being able to participate in the draft

In this matter, the emperor did not designate you to participate in the draft, so you cannot interfere in the court without authorization

politics, so Xue Baochai can't be selected, she can only be anxious on the side. But about the draft results

－１８－

She should get the news quickly, for example, from the eunuch Xia Shouzhong, she can get an accurate letter

Xi, say that your cousin was defeated, there is no way, since there is no way, it will be counted. What's more, she's back

When Rongguo Mansion was provincial, he cried with his grandmother and mother and said that the palace was a place where "no one can go."

place", and said to his father: "The house of Insha, although it is salt and cloth, can finally tell the joy of family; Although rich now

It's extremely expensive, all parties are flesh and blood, but there is no fun in the end! So she felt that through this awarding of the Dragon Boat Festival

Boxing ceremony, to give Xue Baochai a comfort, and at the same time she sent a letter to Xue Baochai herself and the entire family

Xi, it's just that this cousin is so good, since she wasn't selected in the draft, it doesn't matter, she can still marry

My beloved brother Baoyu is his wife, and such a result may be more "meaningful" than being elected to the palace

Fun". Therefore, in her bestowal ceremony, red musk deer strings were specially arranged to strengthen her intention to marry

Toward.

In Rongguo Mansion, the core issue in family politics is Jia Baoyu's marriage. albeit

Jia Yuanchun's intentions are self-evident, and Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue are also happy to accept the "golden and soil marriage", but

What is Jia's mother's attitude? Whether Jia's mother supports the "golden and jade marriage" or maintains the "wood and stone marriage".

This is a very acute problem faced by Jiafu. "Dream of Red Mansions" twenty-ninth top ten

Hui, Cao Xueqin wrote "Enjoy the blessings of the blessed people and pray for blessings", but if we read "Dream of Red Mansions" carefully

called, you will find that the initiator of Qingxuguan Jiao is actually not Jia Mu, and its purpose is not for enjoyment

The blessed people further prayed for happiness. What is clear about "enjoying the blessings of those who are blessed and praying for blessings"? Jia Yuan

Chun's instructions on Qingxuguan Jiao are very clear, and Jia Yuanchun's intention to give a festival gift is also very clear, but

There is a person in the house who pretends to be stupid, who is it, it is Jia Mu. Don't underestimate Jia Mu

People, although she is old, she is very capable, and ten Wang Xifeng tied together can't beat her one, in

In terms of family politics, Jia's mother's level is absolutely first-class. Some people will say that there is also family politics in politics

Treatment? Politics, in the final analysis, is the distribution of power and interests, and the state and society have this problem.

There is also this problem in the family. To whom will the power and wealth of Rongguo Mansion belong in the future? Baoyu is Jia Zheng's

The first heir, needless to say, if Baoyu marries Baochai as his wife, then the Wang sisters will be compared

It is easy to control the Rongguo Mansion, and their sisters and even the Wang family can get benefits in the Rongguo Mansion, but

－１９－

If Baoyu marries Daiyu as his wife, the situation will be very different. So, what is Jia Mu fighting?

What's the idea? You see that Jia Mu had a very strange performance in the twenty-ninth episode, first of all, to Jia Yuanchun to clear the void

Watching Jiao's instructions, she carried out a complete subversion. Jia Yuanchun provided a special provision for Jiao

With the funds, she asked Eunuch Xia to send one hundred and twenty taels of silver, which was earmarked for Qingxuguan Jiao.

Please note that the money came from the Yuan Concubine Niangniang, not from Rongguofu, not from Jia's mother. Jiao asked

What is the question, the concubine has a clear indication of hatred, it is to fight Ping'an Jiao, Ping'an Jiao is a kind of prayer for death

It is a sect in which the souls of the dead and the dead can be peaceful in the underworld, and do not run to the yang world to interfere with the purpose of the living

Teach rituals. As for Jia Mu, although she took over the task of beating Jiao, she changed its theme and put it

Praying for peace for the dead and the dead has been changed to "pray for the blessings of the blessed and the blessed" for the living. Yuanchun pair ginseng

There are also special instructions for the people who beat Jiao, which is to ask Jia Zhen to take the gentlemen in the two mansions to burn incense and kneel to the Buddha.

But Jia Mu ignored that, she called on the daughters of Rongguo Mansion to come out of the nest and turned this matter into her

A carnival centered on itself. Originally, this Jiao should have Jia Zhen as the main body, and it was all the masters

A large-scale event, as a result, Jia Zhen became a peripheral logistical support figure, except

Baoyu, all of you are on the sidelines. Do you think this Jia Mu is powerful? And I've already said it earlier

Before, what is the focus of Jiao? It's the third day of the fifth month, did Jia's mother go on the third day of the new year? She's not there

In the first day of May, Jia's mother went for a day, and then she didn't go. Because Baoyu and Daiyu are awkward,

She cares about this matter, she cares about the emotions of these two, she said that this is called "not a family reunion."

head", unless she swallows this breath, she can't see, she can't care, otherwise as long as she lives, she wants

In the end, she was busy dealing with it. Mother Jia understands that the only way to let Jia Baoyu marry Lin Daiyu is in

In her lifetime, the control of Jiafu was in the hands of her and those she trusted, because I was in front

The narration has already told you that from the perspective of the prototype, Lin Daiyu's bloodline is the closest to Jia's mother

, and Baoyu, theoretically, is the grandson of her sweetheart, but in fact, Jia Zheng is

followed, so Baoyu and Daiyu got married, and they didn't even have the disadvantage that close relatives might have stupid children when they got married

Yes With such a union, she is full of people she trusts the most, and it is a perfect marriage, and

She had long seen that the two sisters of the Wang family had hidden evil intentions under the flattery and meekness they had on the surface, and they always wanted to get it

More long-term control of Jia Province. So among them, you see, there they ate and drank and gossip,

－２０－

In the book, it is often written who is "laughing and laughing" -- these three words in "Dream of Red Mansions" appear too much

Too much - that laughter, if you think about it, is often not funny, but the warmth of an aristocratic family

Inside the veil of the vein, it is a manifestation of mutual intrigue.

In the book, it is written that the void is clear, and there is a stroke that is particularly important, and you must be careful, that is, you are clearing the void

On the eve of watching Jiao, Mrs. Wang took leave, saying that she was not feeling well and would not go. Cao Xueqin from the beginning of the novel

Write that Mrs. Wang is obedient in front of Jia's mother, and in such a society at that time, the daughter-in-law serves her mother-in-law

A responsibility that must not be shirked, you have to hold on to it even if you are sick, there are many such descriptions in the book, including

Writing Qin Keqing, she is so sick that she has to go to Jia Zhen and You Shi every day to settle the province in the morning and dusk, although

Then you said, you are sick, you don't come, she still struggled to comply with the fulfillment

The kind of etiquette between a daughter-in-law and a mother-in-law. It is also written in the novel that Mrs. Wang can only wait for Jia's mother to rest

I dared to take the time to rest, and I didn't forget to ask the girl to ask Jia Mu at any time if she woke up from a nap, as soon as she heard about it

Wake up, hurry over and do your best. However, this is such an important activity of purifying the void and watching Jiao,

Mrs. Wang took leave and did not go. said that he was uncomfortable, and secondly, he was still waiting for the concubine in the palace

If you can send someone, you have to receive it. This is very out of line, as abnormal as Xue Baochai's gaffe. But

Mother Jia didn't let her go, please pay attention to what Mother Jia ordered. Didn't your Mrs. Wang take leave? second

There is such an explanation in the nineteenth time: Mother Jia told Xue Baochai that Aunt Xue must go, and sent someone to go

specially invited Aunt Xue. "Tell Mrs. Wang that I want to take their sisters to go shopping." What is it

Meaning? It is to give Mrs. Wang another last chance. Of course, Mrs. Wang still didn't go. You're not going?

Okay, it's good that your sister went. In the lecture about Lin Daiyu, I have analyzed with you,

When it came to Qingxuguan, what Mother Jia said to Daoist Zhang was actually for Aunt Xue, that is, let

Aunt Xue went to tell Mrs. Wang when she returned to Rongguo Mansion. These words show that in Jia Baoyu's marriage

In things, no one should interfere, Jia Yuanchun is no exception, and in her heart, although she is not no

likes Xue Baochai, but in the matter of who Jia Baoyu marries, she does not support the "golden and jade marriage."

Yuan", her balance is absolutely tilted towards the "wood and stone marriage", and she only needs to "wood and stone marriage".

There is still one breath left, and it is necessary to escort it to the end. So, now you should know more about why Xue Baochai is

－２１－

I'm depressed. It is said that the concubine in the palace wearing a yellow robe has expressed it so clearly

An intention is to promote the "golden and jade marriage", her mother and Mrs. Wang must be overjoyed, but

It was the ancestor Jia Mu who was still alive, but she remained silent. After all, your concubine is just an intention, and you just pass

The Boxing Rite is given in the same share, and especially with red musk strings, to express a will, but you don't

Ming said, if you really have an edict, then my mother Jia can't do anything, but since you haven't issued an edict, I

It's just when you don't have that meaning. This is so interesting to write, so you can't read "Dream of Red Mansions".

These flavors don't work. For a smart woman like Xue Baochai, the red bestowed by the concubine

Of course, she knows the special meaning of the musk skewers, which is the composition of "gold and jade marriage", too

After losing the draft, she was the greatest consolation and the greatest guarantee of future happiness. But she put that red though

The musk skewer is worn on the wrist. But it is a kind of "shame cage" attitude, why is she "ashamed"? Inside the book

wrote that Xue Baochai was depressed in her heart - she was very disappointed that she was disappointed by the failure of the draft, although she had Yuanchun's An

Comfort and marriage, her emotions cannot be changed immediately. But what about Xue Baochai? We all know that

She is a person who worships the concubine, and she guides her behavior according to the basic norms of feudal etiquette

People, since Jia Yuanchun gave the gift of red musk deer, the red musk deer skewer is used to wear it on the wrist, so

She thought about it, and she didn't wear it disrespectfully, so she still put it on, although she didn't feel happy when she put it on

fast, so she is "shy cage". What is a "shame cage"? It is to put it on the wrist and pinch it in the hand

Part of it, half-concealed in such a way. At this time, she saw Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu together,

I felt very uncomfortable, and there was a stroke in the book that read: "Xue Baochai mentioned it to Mrs. Wang and others because of her mother in the past."

The golden lock is given by a monk, and only those who have jade can get married in the future, so there is always a treasure far away

Jade. It turned out that she had a very high heart, and she wanted to enter the palace and enter the palace, and go to the royal family, so she felt that there was no need to chase her

begged Baoyu, let Daiyu linger with Baoyu; But now there is no hope of entering the palace, even the princess and the county lord

The attendant can't be done, at this juncture, Concubine Yuan expressed her willingness to assign her to Baoyu, this

It should be the best place in life except for the draft list, and she should be very pleased. can

Yes, Baochai is a dignified and reserved person after all, and losing the draft is a very big setback to her self-esteem

hurt, so there is a sentence in the book that she "became more and more meaningful in her heart". What is called "Yue."

Hair"? That is to say, I already felt bored, and another one was boring, which is called more and more boring. clause

－２２－

One is not interesting, that is, she originally thought that Dai Yu's might also be the emperor, at least the prince, herself

The conditions are so good, if you go there to participate in the draft, it should be radiant and glamorous, but the result is biased

Missed, interesting or not? Boring. So at this time, Yuan Chun came to express his intention to marry,

Although it is indeed to give comfort, it has become pity for her, which is equivalent to saying that Yuanchun is looking for her

Supplement, that is to say, since this is the case, you should marry my brother. When Baoyu went to visit her in Lixiangyuan,

The two men exchanged ornaments - Baoyu is a psychic jade, she is a golden lock - and compared the jade and the lock

On the chiseled words, the Ying'er on the side couldn't help but say that they were "a couple", and said that there were leper monks

prophecy, at that time, she cut off Ying'er's words and told her to stop talking. She wasn't shy then, she was superficial

Gentle and humble, in fact, she is still arrogant in her bones, and she didn't have to ask for it at all

times", I didn't fall in love with Baoyu, but later I had more intimate contact with Baoyu, and of course I was emotional

It's average, but she can see that Baoyu loves Daiyu, so she doesn't have the idea or act of taking people's love

Law. Unexpectedly, as soon as she lost the draft, Yuan Chun immediately came to ask for marriage, and her mother and her aunt put her

pushed to the cusp, not only made her suspected of snatching Daiyu's love, but also made her have to surpass the ancestor

Zong Jiamu's huge obstacle, so in this case, she felt more and more bored.

This is also her complex psychological state when she is ashamed of the red musk deer. Although Xue Baochai is "ashamed of the cage", Jia Baoyu

But the eyes are sharp, and when he touches her, he sees it at a glance, so it constitutes the second half of the twenty-eighth chapter

of the plot.

Actually, Jia Baoyu himself got the red musk deer skewers, and it is said that after getting the red musk deer skewers, he

You should be very happy, even if you don't want to wear it, you can always pick it up and take a closer look and smell it, right? But he didn't even do

I didn't do anything like this, and I heard the attacker report to him, saying that he had taken back the share given to him from Jia's mother's house

Including the gift of red musk deer, what is his mind full of? He was anxious to ask the attacker, and Sister Lin got it

What, I heard that Sister Lin got less gifts than him, so he immediately asked the girl to take all the money he had gotten

The west, including the red musk deer skewers, were all carried to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion and let Sister Lin pick them. Sister Lin's character, you can forgive me

And I know, all of them are returned, saying that I have it too, don't want it. Everyone called it to recall, in Sister Lin

After his father's funeral in Suzhou, when he returned to the capital, he saw him and offered a string of beads to Lin Dai

－２３－

Jade, that is, the tungsten beads, the same as the red musk musk strings, are very in the information about antiques

It is difficult to find, but it is likely that it is Cao Xueqin's artistic imagination, in order to portray the characters and deepen the content of the work

ingenious writing. That time, Lin Daiyu didn't think so at all, he said: This is from the emperor

Target! Lin Daiyu said contemptuously: "What stinky man has worn it!" "Throw but don't take. She's really seeing

The royal is dung, she doesn't want the "stinky woman" to wear it, can she have it?

This is Lin Daiyu. The girl had to take all the things back to Yihong Courtyard, and after getting them back,

Baoyu probably didn't even glance at it, and he was full of thoughts about this at that time, and he was not happy

Sister Lin got the same as me, but Sister Bao got the same as me? Because of this, Po

Jade he obviously has this red musk deer string, he didn't pick it up and look at it, and happened to see Xue Baochai wearing it.

After all, he is still a man who has transitioned from a teenager to a young man, and in the face of the youth Lishu hand cage red musk deer, he

It was difficult to suppress his love for beauty, so he wanted to see it, especially the "shame cage" posture that Baochai took at that time, half

Half-concealed, which made him even more curious, he asked Sister Bao to take it off her wrist and show him. Xue Baochai at this time

Hou had to reluctantly fade down to show him, but she was relatively plump, not a bone beauty, a red musk deer

The string is made of eighteen beads, and it is the first time it is worn, so it must be relatively tight, so it is easy to fade off. Then

Waiting, Cao Xueqin wrote about Jia Baoyu's sexual psychology, and Baoyu felt that Xue Baochai's snow-white arms were very tempting

people, so they thought, "If this arm grows on Sister Lin's body, or it has to be touched, it will be born."

Grow on him. This is very reasonable, which means that Jia Baoyu is a healthy man.

He has a normal sexual psychology and a metaphysical need for love, but he has moral control over himself

system, which shows that he actually only loves Lin Daiyu, and he has a thing of self-restraint. Xue Baochai one

Look, I've faded down, why don't you pick it up, why are you stunned, so you lost the string of beads. So

In the novel, Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai each threw a string of beads, and Lin Daiyu threw a string of beads with Xue Baochai

is different, Xue Baochai lost a red fragrant musk string, and the two bead strings brought two characters to life, which is really meaningful

Think.

Next, I wrote that Lin Daiyu happened to come over, and there was a lot of psychological collision between the three of them

and friction, I won't go into details. In short, Xue Baochai was in the period before the Dragon Boat Festival, really

－２４－

It's very tormenting. Lin Daiyu said that "the wind, swords, frost and swords are strictly pressing", in fact, a woman like Xue Baochai, she is also

can't really control her own fate, she also has a very sad side, you think about it for her

Think, at that time, how many kinds of unhappiness gathered in front of her eyes, Xue Baochai was there

In such a situation, she has to sort out her thoughts, what should she do? Everyone should think for her, too

Thinking about it, what should she do, the draft failed, Concubine Yuan expressed her intention to marry, but Mother Jia didn't answer Concubine Yuan's finger

Marriage ball, her mother is very anxious, Mrs. Wang is also secretly anxious, the situation has developed to this

For the sake of her, what should she do? Cao Xueqin wrote very smartly, and after the big waves, he let again

This wave gradually calmed down, because one is relaxed, the way of civil and martial arts, and the same is true for writing novels

After a climax, you're going to have ups and downs, you're going to have different peaks, and then you're going to have a trough.

and then push to another set of plots to form a new climax. Cao Xueqin is very skillful in mastering his pen

The plot flows, he writes something explicitly, and at the same time secretly writes a lot of things. In this place must be

I need to point out to you that he used a lot of pen to write about the emotional entanglements of Baoyu, Daiyu, and Baochai

ink, but you can't simply think that "Dream of Red Mansions" is a romance novel, let alone simply

thinks that "Dream of Red Mansions" is the love story of Bao, Dai, and Hai. Because you're going to talk about love

words, it wrote about the love between Xiaohong and Jia Yun in the twenty-ninth chapter, and they all came back to their eyes.

Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu reading "West Chamber" together under the peach blossom tree is certainly very moving, but also very big

The gallant love behavior, as for the "crazy daughter to send Pa to provoke lovesickness", it is a higher level. He writes about Little Red

When approaching Jia Yun, the lower dead eye stared at Jia Yun twice, think about it, what is "dead eye"? that

Lin Daiyu can't have a way of looking at people, let alone looking at a person of the opposite sex! So, "Red Mansions

There are many love stories written in Dreams, more than one kind of love story. What's more, it's not just about writing about love

love, it also wrote about family politics, wrote about many life scenes, and even wrote "The sun and the moon shine brightly."

Kun", so to fully understand "Dream of Red Mansions", what do I mean by this

This? I hope you put such emotional entanglements between Xue Baochai, Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu in one

A grand background to observe, so that the observation is more in place, more interesting, and more effective

Body. According to a comment from Fat Yan Zhai, we can judge that in the thirty-sixth round, it is exactly that

One third of the book, by the thirty-eighth chapter, more than one-third of the way. If you are careful

－２５－

If you flip through it, you will find that the emotional entanglements of Bao, Dai, and Hairpin are actually mainly concentrated in the first

Nineteen back to the fortieth chapter, of course, Cao Xueqin also wrote a lot of other things before and after,

The writing is intricate and complex, and the embroidered patterns are not simple, but full of flowers. place

When we read, we must know how to read the "subtext" below its "explicit text", or

It's called reading the "dark writing" after its "clear writing". After he wrote about Xue Baochai's gaffe, it was gradually

Gradually implicitly writing Xue Baochai's self-adjustment, we should pay attention to such words.

First of all, Xue Baochai was more deeply aware that in Jiafu, the internal affairs of the family, said

In the end, it is Jia's mother who has the final say, so she must continue to envelop Jia's mother. She knew how to please Jia's mother very early,

Soon after the beginning of the novel, it was written that she had her first birthday in Rongguo Mansion, and Jia's mother contributed twenty taels and said that she would give it to her

Birthday. Some readers misunderstood, saying that Jia Mu must have taken a fancy to Xue Baochai, but she hadn't heard of Lin Daiyu

On her birthday, Jia's mother contributed it! But Cao Xueqin was afraid that you would misunderstand, so he wrote Wang Xifeng's funny words, Wang

What did Xifeng say? "Baba took out the rotten twenty taels of silver to be the host,...... This one

Wine, is it a joke? In fact, Mother Jia was nothing more than polite, because Aunt Xue took Xue Bao with her at that time

They lived in Rongguo Mansion, and soon after, they were very close relatives, Baochai, the daughter

Well, she looks good and has a good personality, she celebrated her birthday at her aunt's house for the first time, and her ancestors donated twenty taels of silver

Sub means meaning. Cao Xueqin told us through Wang Xifeng's joke that twenty taels is a small meaning

Think, is it enough wine? Or is it enough to play? Got it? So you can't think that there are some such plots in the book,

It proves that Jia Mu seems to have a higher valuation and opinion of Xue Baochai than Lin Daiyu. It is not enough to say,

Can't explain. Xue Baochai herself is very well-behaved, and Jia's mother asked her what she wanted to eat? What drama do you want to hear? she

I know that elderly people like Jia Mu eat food, love to eat sweet and rotten things, and like to listen to lively dramas when watching dramas

Wen, so she said it according to what Jia's mother liked. When Jia Mu heard this, she was too sensible and very happy

Huan, very happy. But through the later Qingxuguan Jiao incident, Xue Baochai understood, Jia Mu

It's not easy to deal with, ginger is old and spicy, so I feel that just the general flattery is not enough, and I must take more and

More ingenious means. In the thirty-seventh and thirty-eighth chapters, Xue Baochai's exchange was secretly written in the book

Jia's mother's favoritism. What is the way, that is, the Daguanyuan has established a poetry club, and the beginning is the Begonia Society, Yin

After the begonia flowers, it happened to be autumn, and it was time to enjoy the chrysanthemums, and this time happened to Shi Xiangyun to return to Rong

When the government came, he lived in Wuyuan and lived with Xue Baochai, and Shi Xiangyun wanted to do a job in the east

Move, appreciate chrysanthemums, and make chrysanthemum poems. But what about Shi Xiangyun's financial situation? Is there anything in the book

work, she often does it late, she can't sleep well, and her neck is sore. This is very sad for Shi Xiangyun

Simultaneously. Of course, living in such a mansion, she has the status of a young lady, and the mansion will also give her one

Some pocket money. Everyone looks at the description in "Dream of Red Mansions", the young lady in Rongguo's mansion has been down to Xiaoya

Head, there is a share of money every month, and some of the money is relatively high, for example, the ladies are two taels of silver, Jia

The mother's eldest girl was one or two pieces of silver, and the little one was five hundred dollars. Of course, Shi Xiangyun will also have some pocket money

Money, but if you think about her situation, can she have a lot of money, she doesn't have it. But she was in a mood for one

From now, when it comes to appreciating chrysanthemums and making poems about lihua, I want to be the host. At this time, Cao Xueqin wrote Xue Bao

Haichai is extremely smart, he didn't explicitly write how Xue Baochai wanted to envelop Jia's mother, but secretly wrote it, Xue Baochai gave

Shi Xiangyun came up with an idea and said, "It's still up to you to be the east, or you have a treat, and then let's eat crabs and reward."

Chrysanthemum", said that she knew that "from the old lady to the bottom, most people like to Yiyan."

Crab". And for Xue Baochai, there is no need to take money to buy crabs, although her father is gone, brother

Brother is another existence of very poor quality, but the Xue family still has Zhuangtian and still runs a pawnshop.

And the guys, still quite rich. They had a guy in the pawnshop, and his home was in the farm, in the rice fields

There are a lot of crabs in it, which are big and fat, and she can pull a few baskets through her brother, and she can

Prepare some fruit plates or something to accompany the wine, wouldn't that be all you need? For Xue Baochai, with her brother

Brother, her brother prepared all these things, and the thing was done; She was afraid that her brother would forget

－２７－

Because her brother is a swinger, he is easy to forget, as long as he doesn't forget, it's all ready-made, no

Use special money to spend money, and don't want Shi Xiangyun to pay money. In this way, from Jia's mother to the entire house

Everyone else will be very happy, and there are many descriptions that everyone is very happy about. Look at Xue Baochai

She is really scheming, on the surface, this is Shi Xiangyun as the host, and people should thank Shi Xiangyun, but

It is not an "economic secret" that Shi Xiangyun is strapped for money in Ronggang Mansion, and everyone knows it, even

The attackers have said how she is at home; She went from home to Rongguo Mansion and brought them to the girls

Some rings, those are relatively cheap red stone rings, although the gift is Xuan, the affection is very heavy, girls

Know this. So in the end, Jia Mu will definitely know that it was actually Xue Baochai who organized this time

Qiukou's crab-eating chrysanthemum viewing event, in my heart, must have a plus for her. And in fact, Jia Mu was indeed that day

I'm really very happy. Therefore, Xue Baochai first skillfully adjusted his relationship with Jia's mother. Xue Bao

Hai understands that what finally decides her marriage is not the role of the peers involved in this marriage and love

The power is neither in the hands of Baoyu nor in the hands of Daiyu, it only depends on the parents. So in the plot of the novel

In the process of flowing downward, she quickly overcame her aberration and gaffe, and returned to her inherent character

Among them, she shows her gentleness, elegance and modesty. "You have to be careful!" This kind of loud and lustful table

Now, of course, there is no such thing as a complete loss. She set the goal of realizing the "golden and jade marriage" in Rongguo Mansion

Later, by actively and skillfully regulating interpersonal relationships, focusing on pleasing Jia's mother, he sat back and waited for the harvest. Cao

In this way, Xueqin wrote a living, feudal society that wanted to abide by the norms of etiquette and religion,

But there are also some human elements in nature that are difficult to completely suppress, such as a sense of loss, self-esteem, and strife

Strong and competitive and so on, a lady show. That's what we can radiate from the red musk deer

Go and realize some of the contents. Someone will ask such a question: you have been talking for a long time, or

There are many rational analyses of Xue Baochai, that is, this is a very scheming, through wisdom

Wise, through self-cultivation and through the regulation of interpersonal relationships, to strive for personal happiness of the woman, but,

For Jia Baoyu, does she have anything from the depths of human nature, purely emotional, and beyond reason?

What about the soul fluttering at the level? To put it bluntly, utilitarianism aside, does she love Jia Baoyu? If you say her

Love Jia Baoyu, how many outstanding performances have you had in Cao Xueqin's eighty episodes of "Dream of Red Mansions"?

PS: This is a repost, because when I was reading, I was very concerned about whether Baochai loved Baoyu or not, and now I finally understand something, although I am not convinced.
