The cousins Jia Lian and Xue Pan actually have many similarities.
Because of their rich birth, pampering and habitation from an early age, coupled with the influence of those around them, Jia Lian and Xue Pan inevitably grew into a playboy. They spend money like flowing water, pick flowers and weeds, willfully make angry, and do whatever they want. However, even if the personalities of the two people are very similar, it is clear that Jia Lian looks down on Xue Pan, and in the eyes of the family, Xue Pan is a "big fool".
Jia Lian smiled and said, "It is precisely because I saw my aunt go, I might as well bump into a young daughter-in-law and be born in a neat shape... Who knew that it was the little girl who came to Beijing to buy, named Xiangling, who actually made a room with Xue Da fool, opened his face, and became more and more provocative Peugeot, and that Xue Da Fool really insulted her. ”
A mouthful of "Xue Big Fool", Jia Lian's tone, full of contempt for Xue Pan. In fact, it was no wonder that Jia Lian looked down on Xue Pan. The same are the "four major families of Jinling", the Xue family has decayed at this time, borrowing in Jia Province, relying on Jia Fu to support the scene; again, the Xue family is obviously not as good as before, Xue Pan is still a wandering hand, spending money like flowing water, making friends with "Qi Brother" in the academy, casually on a person, a year is dozens of silver; in the fireworks courtyard to make friends with laughing women; because Jia Baoyu has an unreliable prescription, spent thousands of silver to dispense medicine, and did not know who to give it to; this Dumb Overlord even recognized Liu Xianglian as a good ling , so I was beaten up.
And Jia Lian is a man who is "good luck on the road of the world", and the scene of Jia Fu today, to a large extent, is maintained by Jia Lian.
The two broad princes put together to make a comparison, Jia Lian does seem to be much smarter than Xue Pan, and it is no wonder that Jia Lian calls Xue Pan a "big fool".
However, when we carefully analyze some of the details in "Dream of the Red Chamber", it is not difficult to find that in fact, Xue Pan also has his shrewdness, and these advantages of his are that Jia Lian cannot see and will never understand.
Today's Xue family, there is really no way to compare with jia family, Xue Pan's generous shot, opened up a situation for themselves in the capital.
At Qin Keqing's funeral, as soon as Xue Pan struck, he gave a wooden coffin that "there is no place to buy a thousand taels of silver". At this point, Xue Pan helped Jia Zhen solve one of the most difficult problems, which made Jia Zhen overjoyed. If Xue Pan had something to use Jia Zhen in the future, could Jia Zhen not try his best to help?
Moreover, it is certain that Xue Pan will definitely not only do this one thing to help people solve their urgent needs. Relying on this, Xue Pan was able to integrate into the circle of magnates in the capital as quickly as possible and open the door for the Xue family's business. Therefore, before the Xue family entered Beijing, their business in the capital had withered away, but since they entered Beijing, the business could continue to be maintained.
Xue Pan looked stupid, but in fact, he had more numbers in his heart than anyone else. The twenty-fifth time, Jia Baoyu and Wang Xifeng were killed by Aunt Zhao's evil magic, and Jia Fu became a pot of porridge. In the midst of this chaos, Cao Xueqin did not forget to give Xue Pan a description——
Only Xue Pan was very busy than everyone else, and he was afraid that Aunt Xue would be squeezed down, and he was afraid that Xue Baochao would be seen, and he was afraid that Xiangling would be embarrassed by people--knowing that Jia Zhen and others were doing kung fu on women, so they were too busy.
Although "mixed up and not stingy", Xue Pan's care for his family has always been very thoughtful and has always been very dedicated. From this point of view, Xue Pan was much stronger than Jia Lian. Even in such a chaotic situation, he took into account all his family. And Jia Lian? As Mrs. Xing said, only Yingchun's own sister "didn't care at all" and let others bully her. Daughter Qiao Sister has acne rash, Jia Lian has not forgotten to meet more girls outside privately.
Xue Pan not only honored his mother, but also loved his sister Xue Baochao. Going out to do business, it was enough to bring two large boxes of gifts to my mother and sister. Xue Pan thus became the warmest brother in "Dream of the Red Chamber".
If a person is not stingy, if he knows how to love his family, it is bound to make people feel more good. Xue Pan is a man with obvious shortcomings, but definitely not without merits. In Jia Lian's eyes, he was a "big fool", but in fact, Xue Pan also had his own unique shrewdness, which Jia Lian could not understand at all.
