In "Dream of the Red Chamber", Xue Baochao has always had a good reputation, and in the hearts of the people, she is dignified and generous; in front of the elders of Jia Province, she also behaves remarkablely. Greeting Jia Mu and Madame Wang morning and evening, even Jia Mu had to praise her in front of everyone for being better than the four girls in our family.
However, what about the real Xue Baochao? Perhaps, through this cup of tea offered by the raiders, we can see the real Baochao.
The sixty-second time of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Jia Baoyu's birthday, at this time, Jia Mu and Lady Wang all entered the palace to guard the old concubine who died. This day also coincided with the birthdays of Ping'er, Xiuyan and Baoqin, so Tanchun and others specially let Liu Sister-in-law make two other wine dishes and celebrate the birthday of the four of them in the Red Fragrant Garden.
After eating, they each went around entertaining, such as Exploring Spring, and playing chess with Baoqin, such as Baoyu, and chatting with Daiyu and the two of them under the shade of flowers.
The raider saw the two of them and stood and talked for half a day, so he specially brought two cups of tea, but when he walked to Baoyu's face, Daiyu had already left. Unable to do so, he gave him Bao Yu's tea and then walked toward Sister Lin, unfortunately, Dai Yu was with Bao Chao.
Bao Yu said, "That's not her, you sent it to her." He said and took a bell. The raider sent the bell to baochao, and only got a cup of tea, and said, "Whichever is thirsty will take it first, I will pour it again." Bao Chao smiled and said, "I'm not thirsty, just gargling one mouthful is enough." He said and took a sip of it first, and handed the remaining half cup to Daiyu in his hand.
Obviously, the tea served by the raiders was originally for Daiyu, but in the face of Baochao and Daiyu, she was temporarily embarrassed. To whom? But just when she was embarrassed, Bao Chao generously took the teacup, not to drink, but just to rinse her mouth.
In this scenario, we need to pay attention to two points.
First: Why does it seem difficult to attack people?
In the face of Bao Chao and Dai Yu, although she only poured a cup of tea, it was obvious that it was not a hassle to pour another cup. In this way, the key to her embarrassment lies in who will give this cup of tea first?
In terms of the closeness of the relationship, she and BaoChao were more friendly; but from the situation at this time, she was originally sending tea to Daiyu, and perhaps at this time, Jia Baoyu was still watching.
More worthy of our attention, that is, Bao Chao and Dai Yu, have always had a tense relationship and are not friendly, even if jia Baoyu, it is also through Dai Yu's attitude towards Bao Qin, after asking Dai Yu, only to understand that the two of them have eliminated their suspicions because of the "wine order" and "send bird's nest" incident, and have become good sisters.
Therefore, as the attacker of the Ya Gui, the relationship between Bao Chao and Dai Yu is now more elusive. This may be a big reason for her embarrassment.
Second: After Xue Baochao drank half a cup of gargling, he deliberately handed the remaining half cup to Daiyu's hand.
This detail is intriguing, and it is precisely because of this detail that we can see the real Baochao.
Supposedly, drinking tea and gargling are not things of the same nature. Xue Baochao was not thirsty, so even if she needed to rinse her mouth, she could wait for Dai Yu to drink half a cup first, and then take it to gargle.
Xiao Bai believes that friends can understand this, even relatives, more or less will mind drinking the rest of other people's mouthwash. It's not hard to understand this picture.
Through this one detail, it actually reflects a point, that is, Xue Baochao, who usually knows etiquette and understands the rules, is not so tutored in his heart.
Let's take a look at her action after gargling, and take the initiative to hand the remaining half cup to Daiyu's hand. How many meanings does this mean? Does Sister Lin pick up or not?
During the whole process, did Xue Baochao care about Daiyu's feelings? Asked Daiyu's opinion? And not? Her handling of this cup of tea was entirely based on her own ideas.
It seemed that in her consciousness, Sister Lin had a very good relationship with her, and it was good enough to accept drinking her mouthwash. Such an act, to put it bluntly, is quite like narcissism; to put it bluntly, it is rude.
Just like when Amber joked about Daiyu and said that Jia Mu loved Baoqin, Sister Lin would definitely be jealous. Shi Xiangyun did not dare to answer the call because she knew Daiyu's usual small nature, but Xue Baochao was different, and she said unabashedly: She will not, my sister is her sister, she hurts more than me.
How did this feeling come to mind? Is she a roundworm in Sister Lin's belly? And to say it so bluntly is really hard to accept.
Speaking of this, it reminded Xiao Bai of her words when she folded willows in the willow leaves and faced Chun Yan's advice.
Ying'er said, "Others can't make it messy, but I alone make it." Since the foundation was divided, there are daily routines in each room, and the food is not counted, and the single pipe of flowers and grass is stubborn. Whoever cares about anything, every day, will wear the girls and girls in each room, and it is necessary to send some folded branches to each color, and there are also bottles. Only we said, 'Don't send anything, and you'll ask for what you want.' It's never been once. I'll pinch some today, and they're not embarrassed to say it. ”
Let's analyze the theory of the warbler, when others gave it to her as usual, she said no, and then she needed to say it again; however, when she turned her head and saw these wickers and flowers, she picked them with her hands straight, and in the face of the reminder, she was also righteous and strong, and felt that this was the right thing to do.
But let me ask, is what others give is the same as what you pick yourself? There are so many women in the Grand View Garden, if everyone is like her, how can these old mothers still manage it?
It can be seen that The Warbler has to be righteous and strong, like her master Baochao, which is a manifestation of rudeness and lack of tutoring. They never seemed to care what others thought, and acted only on their own ideas, as if everyone in the world owed her.
Returning to the matter of drinking tea, let's look at Daiyu's actions again.
The raider laughed and said, "I'll pour it down again." Dai Yu smiled and said, "You know that I am sick, the doctor will not allow me to eat more tea, this half an hour is enough, it is difficult for you to get it." "Say finish drinking and put the cup down.
In the face of the half cup of tea handed over by Bao Chao, Daiyu's move undoubtedly showed her cultivation. It not only gave BaoChao enough face, but also took care of the difficulties of attacking people. She changed her old habits of cleanliness and drank the gargling tea that Bao Chao had drunk. In such a comparison, the quality of Dai Yu and Bao Chao is high and low!
