Aunt Zhao once used a sentence to evaluate the spoiling of Jia Baoyu by the people of Jia Province: "... It's not that there is Baoyu, it is actually a living dragon, he is still a child's family, he looks good, and adults are partial to him..."
Indeed, with his excellent appearance and extremely measured etiquette, Jia Baoyu has earned himself a lot of love from his elders. Needless to say, Jia Mu and Lady Wang, even Lady Xing, who was fighting with Lady Wang, was also very fond of this unrelated nephew of the in-laws, and when she saw Jia Baoyu, she couldn't help but pull him to her side and caress him in every way.
Another elder who loves Jia Baoyu very much is Aunt Xue. As Jia Baoyu's aunt and a person who is obsessed with the "golden jade good fortune", Aunt Xue's enthusiasm for Jia Baoyu is simply beyond imagination.
Aunt Xue hurriedly pulled him aside, took him into her arms, and smiled: "On such a cold day, my son, it is difficult for you to think of me, so come to Kang and sit down." "Order someone to pour the tea rolling in."
This is a passage from the eighth episode of "Dream of the Red Chamber". Aunt Xue's performance was exaggerated and enthusiastic, making it a little difficult to adapt. However, that night, when Aunt Xue left Jia Baoyu for dinner, what she did was strongly opposed by the critic Li Yanzhai.
Bao Yu was praised for the good goose paw duck letter of Zhen's sister-in-law in that mansion the day before yesterday. Aunt Xue listened, and Busy also took some of her own bad to taste with him. Bao Yu smiled and said, "This must be wine." Aunt Xue then ordered someone to pour some fine wine. Aunt Li then came up and said, "Auntie, the wine is just poured." ”...... Aunt Xue smiled and said, "Old goods! You just have to eat your food with confidence, and I won't allow him to eat more, so the old lady asks, "What about me!" ”
At this time, Jia Baoyu was only ten years old. Is it really good for such a small child to let him drink recklessly? It is no wonder that in this passage, Li Yanzhai constantly commented that "it is coddling" and "more and more doting". Finally, the intolerable Li Yanzhai commented on a paragraph, "Yu hates the Home of The Untaught One the most, and lets his sons and nephews suck on them." If you look at this, you will know everyone's demeanor."
What kind of person Aunt Xue is, readers have their own views. Some readers think that Aunt Xue is a very kind woman, and some readers think that Aunt Xue is treacherous and sinister. No matter what Aunt Xue's attitude towards others, her doting on the younger generation is obvious to all. Her son, Xue Pan, was completely ruined because of Aunt Xue's doting. Under the unprincipled spoiling of Aunt Xue, Xue Pan, who was "also a reader of the ancestors", almost became a semi-illiterate, eating, drinking and having fun every day, doing everything, robbing Xiangling and killing Feng Yuan, but he did not take this matter as a problem at all, and went away with a big grin.
Xue Pan was beaten for teasing Liu Xianglian, and Aunt Xue immediately thought of relying on the power of the Jia family to teach Liu Xianglian a good lesson. She never thought it was her son who was at fault. Rao is Xue Pan has grown up, every day outside the fool, he occasionally wants to change his mind, go out to do a business, Aunt Xue is not at ease, unwilling to let him go.
Xue Pan became a wasted man and had an extremely close relationship with Aunt Xue. At this time, Aunt Xue showed no bottomless spoiling for Jia Baoyu, and this teenage child "sucked wildly". This is also the only time Jia Baoyu got drunk in "Dream of the Red Chamber". Although Aunt Xue said that she "did not allow him to eat too much", it was obvious that Aunt Xue did not do this at all, but by Jia Baoyu's temperament, she could not drink steadily. It is no wonder that he was scolded by Li Yanzhai as a "home without adjustment".
The eight words "Yu hates the Home of No Tuning the Most" are the most spicy judgments of the Xue family by Li Yanzhai, and also make the cultivation of the Xue family, which is also the "four major families of Jinling", shattered.
It is no wonder that the xue family's mother-in-law has become the "head family" in the Grand View Garden, the Xue family's servants are in trouble in the Grand View Garden, and the Jia family is embarrassed to ask questions because of the affection of relatives.
The word "cultivation" really fell into the hands of Aunt Xue.
