In "Dream of the Red Chamber", Xue Pan went out to do business and brought back Gu Su as a gift to Give to Xue Baochao, who divided it into multiple portions and gave it to everyone in the Grand View Garden.
Lin Daiyu saw this GuSu thing, and when she saw it, she was homesick and sad and shed tears.
Jia Baoyu came to visit, but he did not dare to break it, "only take some words that don't matter."
Lin Daiyu did not want to go, suggested that he and Jia Baoyu go to see Xue Baochao together, saying, "Just to his side, Brother Xue returned, he must tell him some of the monuments in the south, I went to listen, only when I went back to my hometown."
Lin Daiyu wanted to hear Xue Baochao relay Xue Baochao's experience of passing through Gusu in Jiangnan, the starting point was very normal, the logic was also reasonable, but was it feasible?
The answer is likely to be no.
According to normal logic, since Xue Pan took a large group of people to Jiangnan to do business, the cycle was long and the time was sufficient.
Since there is time to buy many small gifts in Gusu to return to give away, it is natural to have kung fu to visit scenic spots and garden scenes.
And this time is long, after returning, it is natural to talk to your relatives about the scenery and rivers on the road.
But Xue Pan was not an ordinary person, and what he encountered was not an ordinary thing.
First, Xue Pan was in a special situation.
Xue Pan was in distress on the way, fortunately rescued by Liu Xianglian, and the two became brothers and turned the crisis into safety, which was originally a beautiful talk.
However, after Xue Pan returned to Beijing, Liu Xianglian soon became a monk because of You Sanjie's affair, and a happy event instantly turned into a great tragedy.
What will Xue Pan talk to Aunt Xue and Xue Baochao after he returns? Did Gu Su see the record?
Of course not, he didn't even remember that he had brought back gifts from Gusu.
Before Liu Xianglian's accident, he remembered that he had a brother in the line of righteousness, and Aunt Xue had a mind to help Zhang Luo's house and relatives;
After Liu Xianglian's accident, he searched around without a guard, and Xue Baochao asked him to invite his entourage to eat and treat everyone all the way to hard work, and he ate a meal tastelessly.
In short, before and after his return, Xue Pan's mind was hung by the "big wind and waves", and he probably couldn't think of talking about Gu Su fengwu.
Second, Xue Pan is not a keen and able person.
If Jia Baoyu or Xue Baochao went to Gusu, after returning, they were bound to be able to paint a vivid description of Gusu to Lin Daiyu.
One is because the two people have Lin Daiyu in mind, and the other is that they are eloquent, sharp-eyed, and have first-class aesthetic ability.
But Xue Pan is a vulgar and vulgar big layman, although he has money, he has no ability to appreciate humanistic customs.
Seeing Tang Yin as "Genghuang" is his famous scene.
Such a Xue Pan, what places will he visit in xia jiangnan? What do you remember after a bit of fun?
He was likely to plunge into the land of the wind and moon, spend a lot of time and wine, and come back like a big dream of yellow sorghum and remember nothing.
Did Lin Daiyu really expect to hear Xue Baochao relay Xue Pan's gusu observations?
Such a smart and transparent person as Lin Daiyu would not be unaware of Xue Pan's personality, and she should also know in her heart that she actually couldn't hear any stories of her hometown monuments.
But in the case of extreme longing and extreme pain, it is easy to have unrealistic expectations, even if they know that they can't hear it, they want to try it.
Gu Su was not far away, but Lin Daiyu was trapped for half a life and could not return.
