In "Do You Know?".Did you know?Should Be Green, Fat, Red and Thin", whether it is the original book or the drama version, Xiao Tao's ending is very happy. Although she was born poor, she was sold as a maid since she was a child, and she was honest and not outstanding. In terms of managing affairs and being quick-witted, she is inferior to Dan Tangerine, Cuiwei, Xia He, and Xia Zhu;In terms of literacy, she is also inferior to Ruomei and Bessy. But how can this seemingly ordinary silly girl gain the trust of her master before marriage, get the help of her sister-in-law after marriage, and spend her life happily?
There are several reasons for this:
First of all, Xiao Tao is loyal to Minglan . Xiao Tao and Minglan are the same age, and when Minglan just crossed over and was depressed, Xiao Tao stood firmly by her side. The other maids were reluctant to follow Minglan to Mrs. Sheng for various reasons, only Xiao Tao was willing. Her loyalty to Minglan has never wavered.
Secondly, Xiao Tao is very reliable in handling affairs. When Minglan asked her to tidy up Mr. Gongsun's study and deal with confidential affairs, she never divulged secrets, even in the face of other people's doubts and dissatisfaction. This loyalty and reliability of hers eventually won the appreciation of Mr. Gongsun.
In the end, Xiao Tao's wisdom and foolishness are also praised. She never thinks carefully, and she will tell Minglan everything she hears and sees without reservation. Her honesty and trust made Minglan trust and rely on her very much.
When talking about Xiao Tao's life, Minglan said: "Xiao Tao is the person I trust the most, and I hope she can have a good home." This also reflects that Momo's loyalty and reliability have earned her the deep trust of her master.
Xiao Tao, this maid, when she first heard the news that she was going to get married, her first reaction was to worry about whether she could continue to serve Minglan . After discussing with Dan Tang, they decided to leave one person to serve Minglan alone, and Xiao Tao asked to stay because there was no one to wait. Minglan was deeply moved by her loyalty and persuaded her to marry with confidence.
Before getting married, Minglan reminded Xiao Tao that she must obey her sister-in-law. Xiao Tao is indeed obedient to her sister-in-law, and gets along very well with her sister-in-law and niece. Such a loyal maid will undoubtedly be loved by her master.
Although Xiao Tao is not good at housekeeping, she is excellent at asking for news and complimenting others. She has an honest appearance, which makes people defenseless against her, and often provides important news to Minglan . For example, she inquired about the appearance and personality of the late Da Qin, as well as the situation that Liang Han had an Aunt Chun Ke before marriage.
In the crisis of encountering water thieves, Xiao Tao showed a wise and foolish side. She took Dan Tang to hide under the boat, avoided a catastrophe, and went to the river to fish afterwards, her wit and bravery made Minglan secretly surprised.
In addition, Xiao Tao always praised Minglan for her intelligence and ability without hesitation, which made Minglan very useful. And when Minglan praised Little Brother Shi, Xiao Tao would also have a little jealousy in her heart.
It can be said that the reason why Xiao Tao was able to have good luck was not only because of her own intelligence, but also because she met a good master like Minglan who was kind-hearted and knew right from wrong. Minglan planned for Xiao Tao's future, and chose Shi Xiaodi, who was worthy of being entrusted for life, even if she was reluctant in her heart, she also let her marry far away for Xiao Tao's happiness. If she met a master like Mo Lan or Gu Tingcan, no matter how loyal she was, it would be in vain. Yun Zhi, who was beside Mo Lan, helped her meet Liang Han privately, but she was sold, but Mo Lan didn't even ask. Gu Tingcan even regarded the maid as a mustard, there was a maid for her, but she didn't even say a word of pleading.
Ling'er served her loyally, but she not only refused to let her marry, but also ruined her marriage. Minglan treats her like a sister, and both of them are foodies. If there is something delicious, Minglan will always secretly leave a piece for her. The usual snacks and cheese are not a problem. Because she met a good master like Minglan , everything Xiao Tao did was particularly worthwhile. Whether it is love, friendship or family affection, both parties must be good, and a good head will not last long. In the end, I would like to say that you should do what you have to do first, and then think about whether it is worth it.
