The raiders once had some advice to Baoyu, and one of these advices was that in the future, the monks in the dream of the Red Chamber, under Cao Xueqin's pen, most of them did not do the right thing, such as Zhang Daoshi, who was pure and vain, and actually became a matchmaker.
Zhang Daoshi is a stand-in for Rong Guogong, and Rong Guogong is Jia Mu's husband, so Zhang Daoshi and Jia Mu are very familiar with each other, so naturally they can speak. Moreover, Zhang Daoshi was still a "Great Illusion Immortal" personally sealed by the former emperor, and Jia Fu naturally did not dare to be contemptuous.
Jia Mu qing vain view once, Zhang Daoshi seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and naturally mentioned Baoyu's marriage to Jia Mu. Saying that he had a crush on a girl, to say to Baoyu, he first gave a brief explanation of the woman's situation.
"The day before yesterday, I saw a young lady at a house, who is fifteen years old this year, and who is born with a good appearance. I thought it was time for my brother to look for relatives too. If you talk about the appearance of this young lady, she is smart and wise, and she is worthy of her family belongings. But I don't know how the old lady is, and the trail doesn't dare to make a mistake. After asking the old lady's instructions, I dared to say it to people. ”
Zhang Daoshi, as a Daoist of the Pure Void View, also has the identity of the Imperial Seal, what kind of person can move him to kiss Jia Mu? Obviously, it's not small. If it is an ordinary family, naturally please do not move Zhang Daoshi.
Some people suspect that Zhang Daoshi is helping Xiangyun to propose relatives, this is unlikely, first of all, the age is not right, according to zhang Daoshi's age of the young lady, Dai Yu, Xiang Yun and other people will be excluded, because they are younger than Bao Yu, and Bao Yu at this time is only thirteen years old.
In other words, this young lady was about two years older than Baoyu. I believe that many people have thought of one person after reading Zhang Daoshi's statement, that is, Baochao.
First of all, the age is right, as early as when Jia Mu gave Bao Chao a birthday, she was already fifteen years old. In fact, whether it is appearance or foundation furniture, or personality, Baochao is online. Although Zhang Daoshi did not say whose lady it was, these conditions were met, and there seemed to be only one person in Jia Fu.
So, is it possible that Zhang Daoshi was bought off by Aunt Xue, specifically when Jia Mu went to Qingxuguan to fight, to propose to Baochao? It seems very likely, but in fact it is unlikely, at least Aunt Xue will not do this.
You think, if Aunt Xue bought Zhang Daoshi, this marriage would not be successful. If it becomes, how does Jia Mu look at the Xue family, how does she look at Aunt Xue? If Aunt Xue really wants to kiss Baochao, wouldn't it be more appropriate to find a matchmaker? Why would you go to a Taoist priest?
Moreover, as Aunt Xue, she and Zhang Daoshi must not be familiar with each other, so it is unlikely that there will be such a deal behind her back. But this does not rule out the possibility of Zhang Daoshi and Baochao saying kisses, but the real leader behind this will definitely not be Aunt Xue.
Everyone must remember that Jia Mu qing vain view and do not, Jia Fu is almost the whole family out, from the master to the beard, there are heads and faces basically participated, such a lively happy event, who does not want to see it with their own eyes. But there was one person who didn't go, and that person was Madame Wang.
Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue are sisters, one of the two has a son and a daughter, and the same age, and there is a golden jade, are the people of the four major families, so when the sisters gossip about the family, they will not bypass the topic of children's marriage, and even mention it many times.
Then, it is basically certain that the sisters should not mention whether Bao Chao can marry Bao Yu and enter Jia Mansion to be Bao Er's grandmother. This matter, whether it is for Madame Wang or Aunt Xue, is a good thing that is beneficial and harmless.
But there is also a huge "obstacle" in front of us, this "obstacle" is Lin Daiyu, and it is obvious that the old ancestor of Jia Fu, Jia Mu, is willing to marry Eryu, and people up and down jia fu also know this, and they are almost as old as a sentence.
Dai Yu has been weak and sick since childhood, and everyone in Jia Fu is also known. For Jia Mu, this is also the biggest challenge to whether Eryu can get married, so her heart is to wait until Daiyu is well, but Lady Wang doesn't think so, and if she doesn't marry a good Baochao, why should she marry a sick seedling?
But as a daughter-in-law, how can Madame Wang compete with her mother-in-law? Bound by the etiquette law, she could not work against her mother-in-law, so was it that Jia Mu would preside over Baoyu's marriage? No, she had to find a way. By the way, isn't your daughter a noble concubine? You can convey this meaning to your daughter and let her marry in a royal capacity.
Therefore, we see such a plot, before Jia Muqing's virtual view, Yuan Chun's reward for Daiyu and Baochao Dragon Boat Festival has been obviously different, but this is only a hint, not put on the surface. And when Jia Mu arrived at the Qing Void Temple, Zhang Daoshi came to kiss and picked out this matter, so that the two-pronged approach was more secure.
Except for Lady Wang's operation through her daughter Yuanchun, the others did not seem to be so capable, nor did they dare to risk disobeying Jia Mu's original intentions to propose to Baoyu.
Zhang Daoshi is a stand-in for the Duke of Rongguo, which is equivalent to Baoyu's grandfather, and the grandfather is worried about the marriage of his grandson, which makes sense. And his other identity is the "final real person" of today's imperial seal, and it is up to him to propose to him, this face is not easy for anyone to explicitly dismiss, right?
Of course, these things, as the three people involved, are obviously unaware, and everything is the planning and secret battle of the elders behind them. However, Zhang Daoshi probably did not expect that the wisdom of Jia Mu, at a glance, saw through Zhang Daoshi, so on the grounds that Bao Yu should not marry early in his life, he politely refused his proposal, but did not gray his face, but let him pay attention to it on his behalf, and if there was a suitable report, it was counted as four or two thousand pounds.
Why did Jia Mu refuse without asking about the girl's situation? There was only one possibility, she knew who Zhang Daoshi was proposing to, and she knew who the girl was. After all, the Dragon Boat Festival of Yuan Chun was clearly there. I have to say that it is still the old lady of Shi Jun's chess.
