In "Dream of the Red Chamber", there are two theories about the prophecy of Jia Baoyu's marriage. One is the "Golden Jade Good Fortune" and the other is the "Wooden Stone Former Alliance".
The golden jade good fortune is said to be Xue Baochao's golden lock, to match Jia Baoyu's psychic treasure jade, which is a pair made in heaven and earth. Mushi Qianmeng, on the other hand, is said to be the story of the Divine Attendant and daizhu immortal grass, reflecting the love between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu.
Through the storyline in the original work, we know that Baoyu's previous life was a waiter of the god Ying, one day he watered a dying Daizhu Immortal Grass with nectar on the shore of the Sansheng Stone on the bank of the Linghe River, and later the Daizhu Immortal Grass shed the body of the grass and trees and transformed into the Daizhu Immortal.
On another day, the attendant of the god Ying, under the guidance of the monk Lai tou, came to the human world to travel. At this time, Daizhu Immortal Grass also decided to repay the irrigation grace of the divine attendant with tears. So there was the saying that Lin Daiyu was still in tears.
Lin Daiyu has a stubborn and weak personality, often crying silently, and when the tears dry up, she will die. She and Jia Baoyu were as they were at first sight, secretly in love, but in the end they did not come together.
But in any case, their "wooden stone former alliance" is the fundamental love that the original book wants to express. Their concept of love is predestined by heaven and is also the marriage of past lives.
So, why is there a "golden jade good relationship"?
In the original work, it is written that when Jia Baoyu was born, he held a piece of psychic treasure jade in his mouth, and there were eight words written on it, "Don't lose it, don't forget, Xianshou Hengchang".
In order to match Jia Baoyu's jade, the Xue family of the four major families specially created a golden lock for Xue Baochao, and at the same time engraved on the golden lock "Do not abandon, Fang Ling Yong ji" to cope.
However, it should be noted that the jade of Baoyu was born and was created by heaven, while the golden lock of Xue Baochao was created by craftsmen. It was just the eight words on the golden lock, which came from the mouth of the monk Lai Tou.
Regarding the origin of the golden lock, in the original work, Xue Baochao said, "It was also a person who gave two auspicious words, so he was hammered, called Tiantian to carry", and Ying'er said, "It was sent by a leper monk, and he said that it must be hammered on the gold vessel." ”
It can be seen that Xue Baochao originally did not have any golden locks, but in order to engrave the blessings of the monk Lai Tou on it, he specially created a golden lock. But it is such a golden lock, but behind it is hidden the conspiracy of the Xue family.
In order to enter the palace draft, Xue Baochao came to the capital from Jinling with Aunt Xue and lived in Jia Province.
In fact, at that time, the Xue family's business was very large, and there was also a place to live in the capital, so why did they have to live in Jia Province? All of this is also on this golden lock.
Before Xue Baochao's draft, she had never worn a golden lock, and she had only begun to wear a golden lock since learning that the draft had failed. It is not difficult to see that the so-called "golden jade good fortune" is just a spare tire for Jia Baoyu.
If the draft is successful, it is natural to become the emperor's concubine. It is a great thing for oneself and one's family. If the draft fails, the jia family is their second choice.
Aunt Xue met with Lady Wang and Jia Mu, and said this about Jinsuo, "Jinsuo was given by a monk, and only those who have jade in the future can get married." "Here Aunt Xue lied, saying that the golden lock was given by the monk, just to prove to Jia Mu that the Mandate of Heaven could not be violated. Xue Baochao and Jia Baoyu's "golden jade good relationship" is a pair created by heaven and earth.
In the whole Red Chamber, Jia Mu's heart was the clearest. She had already seen through Aunt Xue's statement and did not take it seriously.
Even in the later plot, Jia Mu took the opportunity to give Xue Baochao a birthday and deliberately poked Aunt Xue and Xue Baochao back, so as not to affect the "Mushi Former Alliance".
In fact, In Jia Mu's heart, Lin Daiyu is the best candidate.
In addition, there are also Lady Wang who supports Xue Baochao, while Wang Xifeng is optimistic about Lin Daiyu; Jia Yuanchun likes Xue Baochao, while Jia Zheng is partial to Lin Daiyu and so on. But it's all for their own benefit!
Only Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu, the heart is clean, the love is pure. But in the end, it ended in tragedy, which made people sigh.
