In the first half of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Xue Baochao's "fans" are definitely more than one Shi Xiangyun, as well as Tanchun. Although Tanchun's admiration and love for Xue Baochao was not as obvious as Shi Xiangyun's, it was also well documented.
At the first "Begonia Poetry Society", Xue Baochao and Lin Daiyu's poems were better, which caused a lot of controversy among these women. At first, everyone was optimistic about Xue Baochao's poems, but Lin Daiyu's sentence "Steal three points of pear rui white, borrow a plum blossom a wisp of soul" came out, and everyone applauded in unison, "It is true that it is the same heart than others." However, Li Yi pushed Xue Baochao to be the leader, Jia Baoyu was not convinced, and Tanchun expressed his views on the side: "This is a reasonable evaluation, and Concubine Xiaoxiang should be second." ”
At this time, Tanchun was unswervingly on Xue Baochao's side, and this was her attitude towards Xue Baochao.
Later, in order to "please" Xue Baochao, Tanchun did not hesitate to "betray" Lin Daiyu.
Forty-second time, when Jia Mu ordered Xi Chun to paint, Xue Baochao opened a long list for Xi Chun and asked her to find the utensils that Wang Xifeng wanted to paint.
Dai Yu looked at the list once, smiled and pulled Tan Chun, and quietly said: "You see, draw a picture, and want these water tanks and boxes to come, i guess she is confused, and she also wrote her dowry list." Tanchun snorted, laughed, and said, "Sister Bao, don't you screw her mouth yet?" Ask her to orchestrate your words! ”
Although this is just a joke between the sisters, Tanchun's support for Xue Baochao is also vividly displayed. Between the two cousins, Tanchun still prefers Xue Baochao, is willing to stand with Xue Baochao, and even somewhat betrays Lin Daiyu's "trust", turning around and "betraying" Lin Daiyu's whispered words to Her to Xue Baochao.
Later, Madame Wang let Xue Baochao and Tanchun and Li Feng manage the house together, and the relationship between Tanchun and Xue Baochao became even closer, almost reaching the point of getting along day and night, even eating together all the time. The two also once wanted to eat oil and salt fried goji buds, and specially sent the maid to the small kitchen to order alone.
However, with the development of the storyline, the relationship between TanChun and Xue Baochao seems to be getting stranger and stranger. Especially when Xue Baochao was preparing to move out of the Grand View Garden, Tanchun showed his extreme dissatisfaction with her. In front of Xue Baochao's face, Tanchun said bluntly, "Even if the relatives are good, there is no need to live in order to be good"!
Tanchun's words were unceremoniously expelling Xue Baochao. She already had an opinion on the Xue family's "dead residence" in Jia Province, and she took this opportunity to spit it out quickly.
Why did Tanchun's attitude towards Xue Baochao change so much? Obviously, this is something that happened during the period when the two people were in charge of the house together, which created a gap between the two people.
If Tanchun is the girl who dares to say and dare to do it in "Dream of the Red Chamber", then Xue Baochao is the girl who can see everything clearly in "Dream of the Red Chamber", but will not say a word that offends people. This is the essential difference between two people.
Wang Xifeng once commented on Xue Baochao, "Don't do your own thing, don't open your mouth, shake your head when you ask, and don't know." This personality trait of Xue Baochao was not only disliked by Wang Xifeng, but obviously also disliked by Tanchun. During the time of the housekeeper, we can clearly see that almost everything is done by Tanchun, and the words that offend people are also said by Tanchun. Xue Baochao would never "set himself on fire".
Yes, Xue Baochao is a guest of Jia Fu, and she is not a master, she is not good at interfering too much in the affairs of Jia Fu, but in any case, Madame Wang also entrusted her, she is afraid of offending people, she can not accept Madame Wang's suggestion, instead of accepting Madame Wang's advice, she adopted a laissez-faire attitude, only caring about her own good reputation, turning a blind eye to those who have problems.
Obviously, Xue Baochao's attitude was an important reason for the breakdown of the relationship between her and Tanchun. If you really treat yourself as a guest, you should understand that there is a certain time limit for living in a relative's house, rather than living endlessly; if you make Jia Fu your home, you should say what you should say and do what you should do. On the issue of the time of residence, Xue Baochao regarded Jia Fu as his home; in dealing with the problem, Xue Baochao regarded himself as a guest of Jia Fu.
This was the attitude that was most difficult for Tanchun to accept, and she also saw the hypocritical side of Xue Baochao. Therefore, soon after visiting the Spring Butler, her relationship with Xue Baochao began to drift apart.
From initially unconditionally supporting Xue Baochao, and even "betraying" Lin Daiyu, to later bluntly saying that he wanted to shake Xue Baochao out of the Grand View Garden, Tanchun's obvious change in attitude was nothing more than seeing the true face of Xue Baochao.
