[Dream of the Red Chamber] Baochai’s Story

I once read this report: No one dares to marry Lin Daiyu How do the perspectives of Shanghainese and traditional Chinese differ? You can understand this by looking at the views on the Twelve Golden Hairpins in Dream of Red Mansions. Shanghai Oriental Network previously conducted a survey report on netizens' mate selection. The question is: If you were a man, which woman in "A Dream of Red Mansions" would you marry as your wife? It turned out that the first place chosen by men in the area was Xue Baochai, with more than 5,600 votes. The choice of Xue Baochai is not surprising. The character Baochai is the most lady-like. She doesn't talk much or gossip on weekdays. She "keeps silent on things that don't concern her. She shakes her head when asked and doesn't know." Men like such a lady, who "knows the general situation" and attaches great importance to family and everything. She is beautiful and has virtues that are traditionally praised. The second place is Wang Xifeng (this result is a bit unexpected, I guess Taiwanese men will not like Wang Xifeng too much) - Wang Xifeng, who has not read much, has red lips that smell before she smiles. She is a first-rate "surface public relations role", and is also a woman who is good at managing the house and saving private money. As long as her husband is not cheating, she can still take good care of her husband. The third place is Xiren who takes good care of Baoyu and is willing to be small so as not to cause trouble for men. The fourth place is Xiangyun. Xiangyun is like the so-called "laughing aunt" in Hong Kong. Every little thing will make her happy. She usually doesn't like to argue with others. Although she is talented, she will not be arrogant and does not stick to trivial matters. Although her family fortune is declining, she is neither humble nor arrogant. Such a woman can be both a wife and a forever friend, resolving a thousand worries with a smile. The least popular one is actually Lin Daiyu, the leading heroine in "Dream of Red Mansions". She only got five votes! This data, in the eyes of late Qing literati, would make them faint if they were still alive. The "Red fans" at that time were divided into two factions: "Yong Lin" and "Yong Xue". There has been such a record: When two literary friends in the Qing Dynasty talked about "A Dream of Red Mansions", one supported Lin and said that Xue Baochai was treacherous; the other supported Xue and said that Lin Daiyu was bitter. The two disagreed and started fighting. Now, no one likes Lin Daiyu. The difference in votes between her and Xue Baochai was so huge. Taiwan has not conducted a similar poll. I think, judging from modern trends, Lin Daiyu may be able to get a few more votes in Taiwan (the people who choose her must be unfamiliar with "Dream of Red Mansions"), and the results won't be too different from those in Shanghai. Why? She is frail, sickly and unhealthy; she has too many thoughts and cares about others; she puts her intelligence in the corner and is hard to please; she gets angry at every turn and is difficult to get along with. Even as friends, it will be very hard. When modern people talk about love and choosing a spouse, they can already clearly distinguish what is fantasy and what is reality. Although Daiyu is still a charming character, the literary charm of a classic character does not equal her feminine charm. So, I like Baochai!

I thought it was the big orange that was more important.

Does anyone know the extra link? Please, I can't find it on the mobile phone.

Hey~ Bow and step down? ? Congratulations!

More~ come up specifically

This chapter is really trouble-free Xue Pan was indeed in a bad mood after being imprisoned. But is it necessary to lose face with your husband? It's not her husband who imprisoned her boring

That's right!! What's all the fuss about? Live a good life and have a baby as soon as possible... It's best for those who really care about and love themselves...

That makes sense~`` It's not like I'm going to be beheaded, I'm just being imprisoned. Do whatever you need to do.

Are you so depressed about getting married~``

Could it be that Xue Pan really messed with someone he shouldn't mess with? It's possible, he's not wearing clothes~ His nature is still there, I'm afraid he acted carelessly and violated some taboos...
