Dream of the Red Chamber Continuation 112: Xue Baochao got married, and Jia Mu said three words of blessing, one of which was to praise Xue Baochao, but the essence was to deny Lin Daiyu.
01
Xue Baochao got married, and the Jia family was very lively, and relatives and friends came, especially the four major families, who sent people to the Jia family to congratulate.
The Zhen family in Jiangnan was raided, the four major families were in danger, and at this critical time, the marriage between the Jia family and the Xue family was like a shot of tonic, so that everyone saw hope.
Jia Fu spared no effort to solemnly organize the wedding with the strength of the whole family.
On the night of the wedding, the railings outside the Jia Fu house were tied with crystal glass wind lamps of various colors, such as silver light and snow waves; the willow and apricot trees behind the house in front of the house were hung with big red lights; the lights were competing for glory, the real glass world, and the jewelry was clean. (Reference: Dream of the Red Chamber, 18th)
Jia Mu, Madame Wang, Aunt Xue and others dressed up gracefully and luxuriously, and personally greeted the Lady of the Commandments who came to celebrate.
On the day of the big day, people often do not skimp on words of praise, women get together, and the topic naturally cannot be bypassed by the bride Xue Baochao.
After Madame Wang said the many benefits of Xue Baochao, Jia Mu also smiled and praised Xue Baochao, and she said three words in public.
02
In the first sentence, Xue Baochao was steady.
Why did Jammu say this? These are the words of the heart that have always been hidden in the depths of the heart.
After Xue Baochao failed in the draft, he lived in Jia Fu with his mother and brother.
Xue Baochao was not very old, but his character was square, his appearance was rich, and many people were beyond daiyu's reach; Baochao's behavior was open-minded, and when he followed him, he was not more self-assured than Daiyu, and his eyes were not dusty, so he was bigger than Daiyu. Therefore, the servants of Jia Fu like to play with Xue Baochao.
When Xue Baochao celebrated her fifteenth birthday, Jia Mu liked her peace and stability, and took the initiative to take out 20 taels of silver and let Wang Xifeng personally hold a birthday party for her.
Words are better than deeds, and the words that Jia Mu did not say at the beginning were now generously spoken at the wedding.
03
In the second sentence, the four girls in our family are not as good as Bao Yatou.
This sentence Jia Mu said before.
Jia Baoyu secretly befriended the dramatist Jiang Yuhan outside, which angered Jia Zheng. In order to teach his son a lesson, Jia Zheng violently beat Jia Baoyu.
Jia Baoyu was blessed by the misfortune, and after being beaten, he became the focus of everyone's attention.
When Jia Mu, Madame Wang, Aunt Xue and others went to Yihong Courtyard to offer condolences, Jia Mu praised Wang Xifeng for doing things, and Xue Baochao saw the stitches and needles, compared Wang Xifeng with Jia Mu in public, and praised Jia Mu.
Everyone wants affirmation, everyone wants praise.
Jia Mu was the same, and was very happy after being praised by Xue Baochao. In addition to being happy, he said in public: "Mentioning the sisters, it is not that I flatter in front of my aunt's wife, it is true, from the four girls in our family, it is not as good as Bao Yatou." (Dream of the Red Chamber, 45th)
Repeating a good word a thousand times doesn't make people feel annoying.
In front of everyone, Jia Mu repeated what she had said before, without any obstacle in her heart.
04
In the third sentence, this child is meticulous.
This sentence Jia Mu also once said in public.
Xue Baochao was helpful, and Lin Daiyu, Xing Xiuyan and others had received her financial support.
Jia Fu set up a poetry club and invited Shi Xiangyun to participate. Shi Xiangyun has a bold personality, and after joining the company, he took the initiative to propose to be the east himself.
After the promise, Shi Xiangyun was reminded by Xue Baochao to realize that it was easy to talk and difficult to do.
Shi Xiangyun usually only has a few strings of money at home and does not have the ability to run a good banquet. (Referring to the 37th time of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Xue Baochao said to Shi Xiangyun: "You can't be the master in your family, and you don't have enough strings of money in a month." ”）
In this case, Xue Baochao took the initiative to help her set up a crab feast.
Jia Mu was smart, and after watching the scene, she knew that someone had helped Shi Xiangyun.
Under the careful questioning, Shi Xiangyun smiled and said, "This is what Sister Bao prepared for me." Jia Mu said, "I said that this child is meticulous and thinks about everything properly." (Dream of the Red Chamber, 38th)
The repetition of the old saying is a reaffirmation of Xue Baochao.
05
As the saying goes, listen to the sound, and the gongs and drums listen to the sound.
Jia Mu said the truth, but the purple crane heard the sound of the strings.
Jia Mu praised Xue Baochao for being better than the four girls in the family (Yuan Chun, Ying Chun, Tan Chun, and Xi Chun), essentially denying Lin Daiyu.
Xue Baochao's birthday, everyone gathered together, except for Aunt Xue, Xue Baochao and others, they were not outsiders; embroidered spring sacs appeared in the Grand View Garden, and Wang Xifeng led the team to investigate at night, clearly saying that he did not check his relatives, but checked Lin Daiyu's Xiaoxiang Pavilion.
Therefore, in the eyes of everyone in Jia Province, Lin Daiyu and Jia Yingchun, Jia Tanchun, and Jia Xichun are the four girls in the Jia family, and Jia Yuanchun, as a noble concubine, is not among the girls of the Jia family.
Therefore, what Jia Mu said was inferior to BaoChao compared to the four girls was essentially demeaning Lin Daiyu.
06
Why did Jammu say this?
There are many reasons, but there are only two core ones:
One is that Lin Daiyu is dead at this time. Lin Daiyu was weak and died in tears. Although Jia Mu liked her, but the dead people could not be compared with the living people, life had to continue, Lin Daiyu even if she was as good as a thousand, she could not come back from the dead and participate in this life.
The other is that Xue Baochao was already a member of the Jia family at this time. Jia Mu is not optimistic about the good fortune of Jin Yu, but as the situation changes, many people and things are changing, as the old ancestor of Jia Fu, she must lead Jia Fu to respond with the changes of the situation. After a hundred years of wealth and wealth, Jia Province is in a time of turmoil, and it is already a strong support for someone to marry. Xue Baochao got married and officially became a member of the Jia family, as a newcomer, she must give a high degree of affirmation, let her identify from her heart, take root in the Jia family, and meet the challenges of the end times with everyone in the Jia family.
For most people, the living are always more important than the dead, and the relatives around them are far more important than the relatives, although sometimes cruel but very realistic.
So, Jammu is not wrong.
