Last time, I talked about Lin Daiyu in Mrs. Wang's daily living room, and saw Wen Wang Ding and Ruyao Beauty.
The Ru kiln beauty goose, which was originally a bronze wine vessel, is now made of flower goose, which is "not worthy of the name".
And Yao has the meaning of "谲觚", which also highlights the gloomy side of Mrs. Wang's personality.
Comparing Mrs. Xing's "Taming Mule" and Mrs. Wang's "Ruyao Beauty", it is undoubtedly more difficult to deal with.
Lin Daiyu's second aunt is like this, so you should pay attention to it in the future.
The above are all foreshadowing by the author, and it is good for the reader to know it.
At that time, Mrs. Wang was not in this room, and the test of Lin Daiyu's upbringing began again.
☞ Let's talk about the Red Chamber series 161, and use the smallest space to talk about the details in "Dream of Red Mansions".
(The third time) the old ladies asked Daiyu to sit on the kang, but there were two brocade mattresses on the edge of the kang, and Daiyu did not go to the kang, but only sat on the chair to the east. The maid in this room hurriedly brought tea. While eating tea, Daiyu looked at these maids, decorating their dresses and dresses, and behaving and acting, which was also different from other families.
Lin Daiyu is a guest, and it is also etiquette for the old grandmothers to let her sit on the kang.
The identities of these grandmothers include the three or two grandmothers sent by Mrs. Xing to send Daiyu, such as Wang Shanbao's family, Fei Pozi, etc., who will appear later. There are also a few old grandmothers serving in Jia's mother's room.
Their status is higher than that of Mrs. Wang's roommate.
Mrs. Wang was not there, Lin Daiyu was a guest, and "Shangkang" was the enthusiasm and etiquette of receiving distinguished guests at that time.
The grandmothers let Lin Daiyu go to the kang, not intentionally trapping her in rudeness, but inviting guests to sit as the host. After all, sitting on the ground is not grand enough.
But Lin Daiyu's upbringing is reflected here.
Although she is only seven years old, she has been deeply educated by her parents since she was a child and knows the rules of a large family.
She saw that "there are only two brocade mattresses on the edge of the kang", and she knew that only Mrs. Jia Zhengwang was sitting on the daily "kang". The chair on the ground is the seat for the younger generations.
Later, it was written that Jia Yuanchun ordered everyone to live in the Grand View Garden, and when Jia Zheng summoned his children at home, he was in this room.
Lin Daiyu resolutely did not go to the kang, because there were only two seats on it, her uncle and aunt.
Not only was she disrespectful to her uncle and aunt, but once Madame Wang came back to see her, she was embarrassed and rude to sit there, and she could not salute in time.
The grandmothers are all well-intentioned, but she can't help but accept this favor casually.
This is the same as Mrs. Xing's previous desire to keep food.
It seems to be polite and courteous, but the actual host is polite, but the guest cannot be rude.
Before Lin Daiyu came to Jiafu, because she saw that the third-class servants in Jiafu had extraordinary food and clothing, she "didn't dare to make a mistake, didn't dare to say a word, for fear of being laughed at."
Don't look at these grandmothers to let Lin Daiyu go to the kang is "sincere", once Daiyu is really "fooled" to sit, they will say it as a joke behind their backs: Miss Lin's family background is not as good as ours, and she doesn't know how to be polite.
Fortunately, Daiyu was cautious and not disturbed by outsiders, so she insisted on sitting on the chair, which made people unable to find any reason.
✍ The above views are sorted out and inferred from the story clues before the 80th episode of "Dream of Red Mansions".
