Since Daiyu became a member of Jiafu, she has been particularly favored by Jia's mother because she is Jia Min's orphan. In terms of daily life and eating habits, Daiyu and Baoyu are almost identical, and even inferior to Sanchun in Jiafu.
After living in Jiafu for several years, the Xue family took the whole family to the capital. Although it was to visit relatives, they went directly to Jiafu as soon as they arrived in the capital and lived with their families. Aunt Xue revealed that their previous plan was to "deal with the usual." As soon as Baochai arrived, because of her cheerful and easy-going attitude, she won the love of many servants compared to the arrogant and unsightly Daiyu, and even the little girl liked to play with her.
As a result, Daiyu was gradually ignored by society, and even when everyone praised Baochai, they did not forget to use Daiyu as a negative teaching material, such as Raider, Hongyu and even Aunt Zhao. Xiangyun even provoked Daiyu to her face and said: "If you dare to find out that Sister Bao is not here, I will obey you." In the eyes of this group, Daiyu is a woman with irritable behavior, petite personality, and harsh words.
Therefore, when Zhou Rui's family handed over the last two palace flowers to Daiyu, Daiyu mocked a few words, and then many people suddenly jumped out and said: "Daiyu is really small, it's too small." The word "small" seems to be a derogatory term, because the original meaning of the word "small" means "tiny", "small". But is this really true?
In the seventh episode of "Dream of Red Mansions", after seeing off Grandma Liu, the people of Zhou Rui's family went to Lixiangyuan to report the situation to Mrs. Wang. When the incident was over, when they were about to leave, Aunt Xue stopped them and said, "I have something you can take with you." Then, she asked Xiangling to take out a small brocade box containing twelve palace flowers, and Aunt Xue instructed them:
The three girls in your family, one pair each, and the remaining six branches, I will give two to Miss Lin, and the four branches will be handed over to Brother Feng. ”
In this description, Aunt Xue clearly stated the specific order and number of flowers to be sent. Sanchun of Jiafu is the master of the house, and at the same time, a young woman who has not yet left the cabinet, and is regarded as a delicate guest. As a guest, Aunt Xue should consider them first. The second is Daiyu, although she lives in Jiafu, she is also a woman who has not left the cabinet, and is deeply favored by Jia's mother. Her identity is almost the same as that of the young lady of the Jia family. It was completely reasonable for Aunt Xue to put Daiyu behind the Jia family's Sanchun. The last one is Wang Xifeng, she is the housekeeper of Rongfu's young grandmother, her personality is very flexible, she is loved by Jia's mother, and she likes to dress up gorgeously every day. Although the last one was given to her, she was twice as numerous as the other girls, which did not mean that she would suffer.
Therefore, Aunt Xue's decision shows extremely high emotional wisdom and does not show obvious bias.
But the question is, how does Zhou Ruijia operate? Those who have an in-depth knowledge of the text understand that the Zhou Rui family first gave the words to Sanchun of Jiafu, then to Sister Feng, and finally only gave the remaining two flowers to Daiyu.
In the third episode when Daiyu enters the Rong Mansion, we have a general understanding of the various paths of the Rong Mansion. When Mrs. Wang's room passed by Jia's mother's room and passed Sister Feng's courtyard, Sanchun of Jiafu lived in Mrs. Wang's house. This means that after Zhou Rui's family left Lixiang Courtyard, it was Mrs. Wang's courtyard first, then Sister Feng's courtyard, and finally Jia's mother's room. Therefore, it seems that Zhou Rui's family finally gave the palace flower to Daiyu for convenience. Of course, this is not necessarily called following the will of the people, because she is a wise person. However, is Zhou Ruijia's operation just for convenience? Is she really just trying to give herself a convenience? It doesn't have to be this way!
When Gonghua was sent to Daiyu's place, Baoyu was the first to come and ask about something. Zhou Ruijia's answer was true, Daiyu just glanced at it lightly, and then asked, "Is this just for me, or does all the girls have it?" Zhou Ruijia said to Daiyu: "Everyone has it, these two branches belong to the girl." Daiyu sneered: "I already knew that if others didn't pick the rest, they wouldn't give it to me." "I knew she was a good woman." After Zhou Ruijia listened, he didn't say anything.
From this point, it can be seen that Daiyu showed a not very welcoming attitude from the moment Zhou Rui's house walked in the door, and she asked directly: "Is this for me, or did everyone get it?" Who gave you this? It seems that it has become so sensitive because of such treatment, and the last sentence "I knew" further confirms that Daiyu's speculation is well-founded. "Whose the hell is this? "Zhou Rui's things are in**? She is a person with a background, status and power. He didn't give any explanation for what Daiyu said, probably because he didn't value Daiyu as a master, and was unwilling to defend himself, or just accepted it silently, in general, his attitude towards Daiyu and Zhou Rui's family was a little cold.
When Daiyu walked into her mansion, Mother Jia hugged her tightly and cried loudly, and said bluntly: "This group of children, the only person they love is your mother. This is actually a warning to the entire government that you can no longer bully me, a "son of heart and liver". The servants of the Zhou Rui family have been serving for decades, how can they so despise and offend Jia's mother's beloved granddaughter? What a joke! However, because her master, Madame Wang, did not expect much from this niece.
Before giving away the palace flowers, the people of Zhou Rui's family first met Baochai, they both cared about her and were full of smiles, wasn't this because Mrs. Wang especially liked this niece who was related to her by blood? Since the day Daiyu entered the mansion, Madame Wang's attitude towards her had become less friendly. Madame Wang, also known as Sister Feng, casually took out two pieces of cloth to make clothes for Daiyu, and repeatedly warned Daiyu to stay away from Baoyu. In the end, Mrs. Wang took Daiyu to Jia Zheng's position. Madame Wang herself is also a lady from a famous family, doesn't she understand these etiquette? She just bullied Daiyu because she was too young, and she wanted to see the actual ability of the daughter who was educated by the daughter who was known as "Jin Zun Yugui". After Daiyu entered the mansion, Jia's mother seemed to want the two Yu'er to grow up together from an early age, which made Mrs. Wang even more disgusted with Daiyu. Therefore, her daily words and deeds may make Mrs. Wang feel dissatisfied, and the people of the Zhou Rui family, who often follow Mrs. Wang, will naturally notice this. I don't like the things that my master doesn't like. The master's neglect, I will naturally.
Obviously, Daiyu was well aware of Mrs. Wang's dissatisfaction with her, and had experienced the strong oppression of Zhou Rui's family many times. So when she received news from Miyakana, she decided not to be patient anymore and took a deep breath, thinking that it was not a big deal?
