Ruo Runyang said that Xue Baochao was not worthy of Jia Baoyu. Some people must have scoffed, Xue Baochao came from four major families, and he was also a miss of Qianjin, and his talent was complete, where was he not worthy of Jia Baoyu?
If I say that Xia Jingui is not worthy of Jia Baoyu, everyone must agree.
Because Xia Jingui was born into a merchant, he was not worthy of the young master Jia Baoyu of the Gonggong Palace.
In fact, Xue Baochao, like Xia Jingui, is also from a business, so she is not worthy of Jia Baoyu.
From the perspective of modern people, it is not compared to family origin, but only from the perspective of personal conditions, Xue Baochao and Jia Baoyu are more than enough. However, Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochao lived in ancient times, living in an era when men and women had to marry and had to be the right door. According to the standards at that time, Xue Baochao was not worthy of Jia Baoyu.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="7" > compared from family origin, the Xia family and the Xue family are not as good as Jia Fu. </h1>
Jia Baoyu's grandfather and grandfather were both Rongguo Dukes, the highest titles after Wang Ye. It is the top of the nobility. Jia Baoyu's uncle Jia Yu was a general of Yipin, and his father Jia Zheng was a member of the Ministry of Works, who later ordered Xuezheng and returned to Beijing to serve as a Minister of Works Langzhong. After the deaths of Jia Yuanchun and Prince Teng, Jia Zheng was again appointed as the Grain Road of Jiangxi. Although not a high-ranking official, it is also a mid-level official. Jia Baoyu's sister Yuan Chun was a noble concubine. Jia Baoyu's home is the upper class of the first category in the arrangement of scholars, farmers, industrialists and merchants.
Xue Baochao's grandfather was a Ziwei She, his grandfather and father were imperial merchants without official positions, and his uncle was an ordinary businessman. In The generation of Grandpa Xue Baochao, he ranked among the four major families. But later, the descendants of the Xue family did not have anyone who graduated from high school. Therefore, the Xue family was only a businessman and had no official position. Although the Xue family has money, it has a low social status.
I wrote in an article that Xia Jingui's mother was a girl from the Xue family and a descendant of the Ziweishe people.
What kind of origin Xia Jingui's grandfather was is not clear, but it should be the same as Xue Baochao's grandfather identity, they are all imperial merchants. As the saying goes, a high door marries a woman, and a low door marries a woman. Therefore, Xia Jingui's mother marrying Xia Jingui's father should be highly married. That is to say, the Xia family should be more noble and richer than the Xue family.
In terms of origin, Xia Jingui should be a little better than Xue Baochao, even if it is not good, at least Xia Jingui is not lower than Xue Baochao's origin.
Everyone knows that Xia Jingui is not worthy of Jia Baoyu, Xue Baochao and Xia Jingui are from the same origin, then Xue Baochao is not worthy of Jia Baoyu.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="16" > In the marriage market, Xia Jingui has more advantages than Xue Baochao. </h1>
01. Xia Jingui's family is extremely wealthy, and the economic conditions are better than those of the Xue family.
The Xia family is a famous osmanthus summer family, rich and oily. Their family contracted the osmanthus business in the capital and the imperial palace.
Since the death of Xue Pan's father, the business of the Xue family has been depressed. There is no business like the Xia family that others can't take away.
The Xia family was richer than the Xue family.
02. Xia Jingui is an only daughter, the heir to the Xia family's inheritance, and her dowry must be more than Xue Baochao's dowry.
Xue Baochao also had an older brother, so naturally he couldn't give all the silver in the family to Xue Baochao as a dowry.
Xia Jingui is an only child, and her dowry for marriage must be more than Xue Baochao. In addition, after the death of Xia Jingui's mother, Xia Jingui can still inherit a part of the family property.
According to the song dynasty law, "In the future, all shopkeepers, livestock products, assets, and funeral merits, in addition to those who marry women, give one share of three points, and the rest are merged into officials." Xia Jingui's father died, her mother had no sons, and her mother died. Xia Jingui could get one-third of the Xia family's property.
Xia Jingui's mother was able to do such a huge business after her husband's death, which shows that she is very shrewd. Such a shrewd woman would not let her property be confiscated by the government in vain, so when Xia Jingui got married, she must have brought an unimaginably rich dowry.
In ancient times, women with more dowries were better able to find in-laws. Because many people choose daughters-in-law, choose girls with more dowries to marry.
03. Xia Jingui did not mess with his brother.
Xia Jingui is an only child, without the help of her mother's family, nor is there an ignorant brother who drags her feet.
Xue Baochao had an older brother with a very bad reputation, and he once killed someone. For girls with innocent families, ordinary people dare not marry. I am afraid that this girl also has violent tendencies. From this point of view, Xue Baochao has no advantage over Xia Jingui on the issue of marrying people.
In short, under the circumstances at that time, Xia Jingui and Xue Baochao were not worthy of Jia Baoyu. The reason why Xue Baochao was able to marry Jia Baoyu was facilitated by Lady Wang and Prince Teng.
