In the dream of the Red Chamber, although Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu are one of Langyuan Xianbao, the other is a beautiful jade flawless, and there is a strange fate in the past life, but in the end, they are defeated by the real Golden Jade Liangyuan. Lin Daiyu has Jia Baoyu's love for each other, jia mu as the backing, and Wang Xifeng's full help. Xue Baochao has the strong backing of Lady Wang, and Lady Wang has Yuan Chun behind her. The balance of power between these two aspects, but in the end Xue Baochao won, which of course has her personal factors at play, and we will find Xue Baochao's means of victory if we read the Dream of the Red Chamber carefully.
In the forty-fifth dream of the Red Chamber, it is written that "BaoChao went to Mrs. Jia Muwang's province twice a day, and inevitably sat with him and gossiped for half an hour, and the sisters in the garden also had to gossip once, so they did not have much leisure during the day", and at the same time wrote Lin Daiyu "always loves to cough, and recently feels heavy, so he always does not go out, only in his own room will be raised."
From this detail, it can be seen that Xue Baochao is very busy in Jia Province, she is busy all day long, and she can obviously connect feelings in the great Jia Province, and in the vast Jia Province, she can see the six roads and listen to the eight directions.
She was meticulous, and in the daily circle visits, she knew the intricate interpersonal relationships of Jia Fu. The chief servant in Jia Baoyu's room is an attacker, and the book deliberately describes Xue Baochao and the attackers to talk. Madame Wang also said when praising the attackers, "I listen to everyone in front of you and behind your back", and this crowd should mainly refer to Xue Baochao.
The Dream of the Red Chamber has no extra pen and ink, and it is written in the book, which has his special meaning. Does Xue Baochao really like to attack people so much? It's not because of the resources that attack people. Xue Baochao's purpose was Jia Baoyu, and first making good friends with Jia Baoyu's cronies was a very effective means. Not only to take down the attackers, even Jia Baoyu's cronies around Xiao Mingyan, Xue Baochao also paid attention to the envelopment, of course, there is a difference between men and women, she did not personally come forward, but let her handmaiden recognize Mingyan's mother as a dry lady.
In this way, Jia Baoyu's information, Xue Baochao will have one more channel. Jia Baoyu is just a node in the complex network of people, around him, in addition to Madame Wang, Jia Mu, Jia Zheng and all kinds of subordinates, do not underestimate the energy of these subordinates, the public opinion of any subordinate may affect the judgment of Madame Wang and Jia Mu on Jia Baoyu's marriage, and these subordinates can play a great role in the critical time.
There are also such examples in other literary works, Ximen Qing wanted to seduce the taishi Cai Jing, but suffered from being too far away, so he first took Wang Liu'er's daughter Han Aijie as a stepping stone, and gave her to Cai Jing's housekeeper Zhai Yunfeng, who threw peach and repaid Li, and finally helped Ximen Qing realize the transformation from cloth clothes to wearing official hats.
Xue Baochao is so good at creating opportunities and seizing opportunities, using the surrounding environment to strive to understand the psychological needs of everyone in Jia Province, and find his own fulcrum in the intricate interpersonal relationships, so as to achieve his own goals.
It is precisely because of this that on Xue Baochao's birthday, she can accurately point out the drama that Jia Mu likes to watch, what she likes to eat, and accurately determines Jia Mu's pulse, which Lin Daiyu is not an opponent at all, Jia Baoyu, who grew up with Jia Mu all day, does not know, and does not know how to question Xue Baochao's point of the play grade is not enough, of course, the more cultured Xue Baochao of course knows, but her purpose is not to appear that she has culture, but to get Jia Mu.
The things in Jia Fu are big and small, which thing can be concealed from Xue Baochao, Xiaohong is the rough handmaiden in Jia Baoyu's room, Jia Baoyu sees the giant and does not know. Even the housekeeper Wang Xifeng did not know who Xiaohong was, but Xue Baochao could hear Xiaohong's voice through the window, and was familiar with Xiaohong's personality, "cunning and eccentric, with big eyes and empty heart".
Lady Wang's room lost rose dew and poria cream, Ping'er and others secretly dealt with the matter, did not expect Xue Baochao to know, when Jia Baoyu wondered Xue Baochao knew, Xue Baochao said, "I don't know how many are bigger than these two." If you can't get out of it in the future, it is the creation of everyone, if you come out, I don't know how many people are involved. You are also a person who doesn't care about things, I just told you, you only listen to me, in the future, pay attention and be careful, this word should not be said to the second person", look, this is something that even Jia Baoyu does not know, many people do not know, Xue Baochao all knows.
In terms of winning the favor of Lady Wang, Jia Mu, and people around Jia Baoyu, Xue Baochao has made sufficient efforts in his daily life. Yuan Chun province, so in such a short period of time, she can conclude from Yuan Chun's speech that Yuan Chun does not like "green jade", so when Jia Baoyu composed a poem, she reminded Jia Baoyu to change the green jade to green wax.
Qing Xuan Guan, Zhang Daoshi brought a golden Qilin, Jia Mu and others did not know, only Xue Baochao said "Shi Xiangyun also has a golden Qilin", "pay attention" let her collect a lot of information, this information helped her to speak and act, so in the Jia Mansion won the reputation of Anfen at any time, after all, it was after careful thinking.
Therefore, Xue Baochao is quite busy, and she once joked that Jia Baoyu was busy with nothing, busy caring about the emotions of her sisters. Then Xue Baochao was purposefully busy, busy weaving her own net, she not only had to get the surroundings of Lady Wang and Jia Baoyu, but also to get Lin Daiyu, and as a result, through Lin Daiyu saying the sentence in the West Chamber, she chatted with Lin Daiyu privately, gained Lin Daiyu's trust, and sent Lin Daiyu bird's nest every day, completely leveling Lin Daiyu.
Lin Daiyu can be leveled, in the Jia Mansion who else can not be balanced, Jia Fu is a lot of people and many mouths, even Wang Xifeng and Ping'er feel that the servants of the Jia Mansion are not easy to manipulate, but Xue Baochao can be balanced, what she relies on, is the daily busy shuttle, the net she clothed, very dense, need her to think, unlike Lin Daiyu, just pay attention to Jia Baoyu, when there is nothing to do, stay in Xiaoxiang Pavilion, there is no mass base, it is not easy to achieve the purpose.
