1. Jia Baoyu

1. Jia Baoyu was beaten: After the Grand View Garden project was completed, Jia Baoyu followed the proposition of his father Jia Zheng and showed his talent for the first time. After the wedding in Yuanchun, Jia Baoyu and her sisters moved into the Grand View Garden. In spring, Bao Dai read "The Romance of the West Chamber" and arranged to bury flowers. Jia Baoyu and Sister Feng were affected by the Ma Dao Po's nightmare spell. A monk worked together to remove the evil from the psychic Baoyu and raised it for thirty-three days before they recovered. On April 26, Jia Baoyu met Jiang Yuhan for the first time at Feng Ziying's house and received a gift of Qian Xiangluo. Jia Yuanchun gave him a Dragon Boat Festival gift, Jia Baoyu gave him the same gift as Xue Baochai, and Bao Dai became suspicious.

At the beginning of May, at the Qingxu Temple, Taoist Zhang proposed marriage to Jia Baoyu. Bao Dai had a big quarrel over this, Jia Baoyu smashed the jade, and Lin Daiyu cut off the jade tassels she had made by herself. Afterwards, Jia Baoyu apologized and was ridiculed by Xue Baochai as "asking for forgiveness". During the turmoil of listening to the singing of "Ode of Burial Flowers" and Shi Xiangyun's persuasion to study, Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu expressed their feelings to each other twice, and their love began to awaken.

2. Childhood Love Affair: Jia Baoyu was pampered by Jia Mu since he was a child. He was originally raised in the same house as his sisters. His famous saying: "Daughters are flesh and blood made of water, and men are made of mud." Of flesh and blood, I feel refreshed when I see a daughter, but I feel turbid and smelly when I see a man." He and Lin Daiyu sat and slept in the same room as Jia's mother, so they were a little more intimate and familiar with each other than the other sisters.

He treated the maids as carefully and thoughtfully as if he were cultivating flowers. He named his room Jiangyunxuan and called himself Jiangdong Flower Master (also known as Jiangdong Flower King). Once, I took a nap in Qin Keqing's bedroom and dreamed of being in a dreamland of Taixu. I read the book of judgments of the Twelve Hairpins in Jinling, listened to the Immortal Song of "A Dream of Red Mansions", and listened to the lesson of "sexual immorality", which made me feel warm with Qin Keqing's dream soul. When he was young, Jia Baoyu and Qin Keqing's younger brother Qin Zhong entered the Jia Mansion Free School together.

When Qin Keqing passed away, Jia Baoyu was so furious that he spurted out a mouthful of blood. When Qin Keqing went to the funeral, Jia Baoyu visited King Beijing on the road and was given a rosary of rosary beads. Qin Zhongyao passed away, and Jia Baoyu was filled with sorrow.

3. Giving up on the cliff: Zhen Baoyu met to discuss official career and economics, which disappointed Jia Baoyu. The monk sent a psychic jade, which led Jia Baoyu to dream into the blessed land (transformed by Taixu illusion), reread the Jinling Twelve Hairpins Judgment Book, and understand the love of the three lives.

Baochai borrowed the word "innocent heart" to imply a satirical remonstration of fame. Jia Baoyu realized that "from now on, it will not be in vain for heaven's kindness and virtue", so he studied the book carefully and rushed to the exam as scheduled. Before entering the venue, he knelt down to say goodbye to Mrs. Wang, said goodbye to Li Wan, and said goodbye to Baochai. After appearing on the stage, he disappeared, and there was good news from outside that the seventh person was elected. In Pilingyi, Changzhou, Jia Baoyu said goodbye to Jia Zheng wearing a gorilla felt cloak, and before leaving, he sang a song, "Where I live is at the peak of Qinggeng".

When Jia Zheng returned to Beijing to start the memorial, the Holy Emperor gave Jia Baoyu the title of Wenmiao Zhenren. Zhen Shiyin said, "Baoyu is the 'Baoyu'". The worldly relationship was over, but the monks still took it back to Qinggeng Peak together, and the shape and quality were unified. The posthumous son Jia Gui and Li Wan's son Jia Lan became Lan Gui Qifang.

2. Lin Daiyu

1. The 13-year-old poetry club won the first prize: On August 21, the Haitang Poetry Club was established in Daguanyuan, and Lin Daiyu was nicknamed Xiaoxiang Concubine. That day I was writing Begonia poems in Tan Chun Qiu Shuang Zhai, and everyone recommended Lin Daiyu's poem as the best. Li Wan defied public opinion and commented that Lin Daiyu's poems were "romantic and unique" and Xue Baochai's poems were "implicit and profound". Tanchun agreed that Lin Daiyu ranked second. On the 23rd, everyone gathered at the Lotus Champs to write poems about chrysanthemums. Lin Daiyu’s three poems, "Ode to the Chrysanthemums", "Asking about the Chrysanthemums" and "Dream of the Chrysanthemums", took the top three spots.

2. Satirizing Grandma Liu at the age of 14: After the Chrysanthemum Poetry Recital, Grandma Liu visited the Grand View Garden. Lin Daiyu felt relieved, relaxed her frown, and laughed heartily with her sisters. Just shouting "Aiyo", "Laughing so hard that he held his chest with both hands". As a result, I was happy for a moment, got carried away with my pride, and lost my sense of discipline. When I was giving orders, I said a few sentences of "The Peony Pavilion" and "The Romance of the West Chamber".

She also made fun of the stories told by Grandma Liu and said, "It would be more interesting to get a bundle of firewood and draw firewood under the snow." She also mocked Grandma Liu's dancing and said, "When the sacred music was played that day, hundreds of "The beast leads the dance. Now he is only one year old"; he teased Grandma Liu as "the mother locust". Her elegant and playful words were praised in retrospect as the lingering sound of complementing Grandma Liu. Grandma Liu brought her very precious happiness and artistic inspiration.

3. 12-year-old Lin Daiyu was buried with flowers: During the Lantern Festival in the first lunar month and the relatives' visit in Yuan Chun, Lin Daiyu secretly composed a song "Apricot Curtain in View" for Jia Baoyu. In Yuan Chun, she commented that this song was better than the first three composed by Jia Baoyu. . On February 22nd, Qunfang moved into the Grand View Garden, and Lin Daiyu moved into the Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

On April 26th, when the flowers were buried, Lin Daiyu felt that the flowers hurt her and sang "The Flower Burial Ci".

Just when Jia Baoyu came to look for it, he heard sentences such as "I am buried with flowers today and I am laughing, but I will not know who he is when he is buried", "Once the spring is gone, the beauty will be old, the flowers will fall and the person will die," and other sentences, and he fell down on the hillside in mourning. . Lin Daiyu wanted to hide, but Jia Baoyu hurriedly rushed to explain the misunderstanding. This was the first time Baodai spoke from the bottom of her heart.

3. Xue Baochai

1. Baochai entered the capital: Xue Baochai came to the capital with his mother and elder brother mainly for the following reasons: First, the recent reason is that poetry and etiquette are respected nowadays, and poetry is collected. Talent is an unparalleled favor. In addition to the selection of concubines, all the daughters of famous officials in the world are given the name of Dabu, so that they can be selected as escorts for princesses and princesses to attend school, and serve as a post to praise talents; the second is to visit relatives and friends; Third, since Xue's father passed away, all the business bureaus, general managers, clerks, etc. in various provinces, seeing that Xue Pan was young and ignorant of worldly affairs, took advantage of the opportunity to kidnap him. Several businesses in Kyoto were gradually depleted, and Xue Pan needed to personally Join the department, settle old accounts, and calculate new expenses.

Xue Baochai went to Beijing with her mother and brother to select talents and praise people. The Xue family originally had a house in Beijing, but Mrs. Jia Mu Wang enthusiastically persuaded her to stay, so Xue Baochai and her brother lived as aunts in Lixiangyuan of Rongguo Mansion, living with the other girls of the Twelve Hairpins of Jinling. Later, the concubine of the Yuan Dynasty came to visit her relatives, and in accordance with the decree, she moved into a residence called Hengwuyuan in the Grand View Garden.

Every day, after meals or in the evening, Mrs. Xue would come over to chat with Mrs. Jia or with Mrs. Wang. Baochai and sisters Yingchun and Tanchun were in the same place, either reading, playing chess, or doing acupuncture, and they were quite at peace with each other.

2. Hot poison and cold fragrance: Baochai's disease is caused by "a hot poison brought in the womb", that is, as an immortal's heart of thinking about the ordinary - Zhi Pi said, "The ordinary heart is occasionally blazing, so "The evil fires attack together", as well as sympathy and concern for the suffering of human beings. In the formula of Lengxiang Pills, the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter combine to form the word "Yanliang". Honey and white sugar are sweet in taste, while cork is bitter in nature. Together they form the word "sweet and bitter".

"White" refers to pure color. The "pistil" is the essence of the flower. Peony, lotus, hibiscus and plum blossom respectively symbolize the four qualities of nobility, elegance, beauty and steadfastness in traditional Chinese culture. Therefore, the entire pair of "Lengxiang Pills" symbolizes Baochai's perseverance and unyielding spirit of "knowing the joys and sorrows, going through the heat and cold, and being able to be at peace despite separation." Zhi Pi said that the medicinal ingredients of Lengxiang Pills were made by the immortals in the immortal world and could not be enjoyed by those who eat the fireworks of the human world.

3. Bao Daichai’s first meeting: After Lin Daiyu entered the Rong Mansion, Jia Mu loved her in every possible way, and she slept, ate, and lived just like Jia Baoyu. The two of them were close and friendly. They walked together and sat together during the day, and breathed and stopped together at night. They were really in harmony with each other. Unexpectedly, Xue Baochai suddenly came, who was more popular than Lin Daiyu. Therefore, Lin Daiyu felt a little depressed and unhappy.

Xue Baochai was recuperating at home. Jia Baoyu sent Jia Mu home and then visited Xue Baochai in her boudoir. The two discussed the items each other was wearing. Ying'er, the maid next to Xue Baochai, smiled and said that the words on Bao Erye's Baoyu were exactly the same as the girl's: Baochai hung a gold lock with the words "Never leave, never give up, and will continue forever", which was the same as what Jia Baoyu carried with him. The words "Don't lose, don't forget, immortality and longevity" engraved on the jade happen to be a pair, implying the marriage between gold and jade.

4. Wang Xifeng

1. Wang Xifeng’s wonderful appearance: Daiyu entered Jia’s house and was talking to Jia’s mother and others about her frailty and taking medicine. “I couldn’t finish a word. I just heard someone laughing in the backyard, saying, "I'm late, I didn't greet the guests from afar!" This sound was just like the character on the opera stage who had not yet appeared on the stage. She gave a loud "Mamen accent" from the backstage, and she took the lead. The three souls and six souls of the person who came were immediately identified.

As the saying goes, "before you write the shape, you must first hear the voice." The author has already passed the character before describing it positively. The laughter conveyed the inner spirit of the character. In such a serious atmosphere of Jia's house, Wang Xifeng could speak like this, which also reflected Wang Xifeng's high position and authority, and was deeply loved by Jia's mother. It also showed a kind of show off.

2. Associating with the Ning Mansion: Qin’s funeral, You suffered from an old stomachache, Sister Feng took office, summarized the five major customs of the Ning Mansion, sorted out the clues, and assigned everyone to their posts. Employ talents according to their abilities, share joys and sorrows equally, perform their own duties, and assign responsibilities to others; govern according to law, with strict rewards and punishments; treat everyone equally and not show favoritism; give orders smoothly and establish prestige. Sister Feng is a person who fulfills her mission and not only shows her extraordinary ability. His political management ability also shows his diligent and respectful spirit in politics.

He works hard day and night and does not make excuses. Therefore, he can "plan very neatly, so everyone in the clan praises him." .

As an assistant to the Ning Mansion, Sister Feng showed off her majesty and talents. "Sister Feng herself was very proud of her authority and command" (Chapter 14). After Jia Lian came back, Sister Feng boasted loudly: "I still made people fall into disgrace because of me, and it's not even a good idea."

3. Earn You Second Sister Wang Xifeng went to Xiaohuazhi Lane in person, and didn't say a word to You. The second sister regarded her as a good person. Even the sisters in Daguanyuan, except for a few more intelligent people, felt that Sister Feng had changed her ways and thought she was very virtuous.

Sister Feng firmly grasped the weakness of Second Sister You, the so-called "having no desire to run wild", a female servant serving two husbands, firmly grasped Zhang Hua's trump card, and could freely move and move. Bu Yu, relying on the yamen's laws and the family's etiquette, created enough public opinion and filled with rumors, causing Sister You to fall into a soft and dark trap, unable to extricate herself, and finally went to a dead end and committed suicide by swallowing gold.

5. Shi Xiangyun

1. Inscription on chrysanthemums at night in Hengwu Garden: Xue Baochai first taught Shi Xiangyun some principles of life: "'Although you are stubborn, you must look forward and backward. You need to be able to benefit yourself and not offend others, and then everyone will be interested.'" When drafting the title of the poem, he lost no time in saying: "'After all, this doesn't matter, or spinning is our duty.

I am free for a while, but it is serious to read a few chapters of a book that is deeply beneficial to you and me. '" Faced with such earnest teachings, the young and innocent Xiangyun "was convinced in his heart." So on the next day, she went against her lively nature and appeared at the banquet as the host, and took care of all kinds of people very steadily and thoughtfully.

2. Gift ring: When Xiren learned that Xiren had obtained the ring from Xue Baochai, "Xiang Yun smiled and said, 'I thought it was Sister Lin who gave it to you, but it turned out that Sister Baochai gave it to you.' I think about it every day at home, none of these sisters are better than Sister Bao. It’s a pity that we are not born from the same mother. As long as I have such a biological sister, it will not be a problem even if I lose my parents.” The circle became popular."

The unscrupulous Shi Xiangyun really only knows how to use his emotions and not his brain. "How much is the ring worth?"

3. Xiangdai encounter: Sister Feng pointed to a child singing and asked who it looked like. Although everyone present guessed, everyone's performance was different. Xue Baochai, who was good at dealing with others, "just smiled and refused to say anything." Baoyu, who knew Lin Daiyu, "didn't dare to say anything." Shi Xiangyun, who was childish, happily expressed that he had guessed. She "smiled and said, 'She looks just like Sister Lin.'" In this case, let alone Daiyu being a careless person, I think even Sister Bao, who has always been generous, would be angry. Because actors had a relatively low status in society at that time, comparing people to actors is just like comparing people to prostitutes now, which is simply an insult. However, Lin Daiyu, who loves to be petty, did not fall out with Shi Xiangyun in the end, because she also understood that Shi Yatou said it "without warning" (without paying attention).

6. Jia Tanchun

1. Taking action in anger: Several unruly slaves in the second sister Yingchun's room were lawless, and Jia Tanchun strictly followed the instructions. When inspecting the Grand View Garden, Jia Tanchun ordered all the maids to hold candles and open the doors, and be ready to take control. She felt extremely sad and indignant about the scandalous act of suicide in her family, and complained, "Don't be busy, of course you will have time to copy."

Both Sister Feng and Zhou Rui’s family gave her some credit. Mrs. Sister Feng scolded Wang Shanbao's family a few times, and waited until Jia Tanchun, the waiter, went to bed before taking the people to the next place. The next day, Baochai moved out of the Grand View Garden. Jia Tanchun expressed his understanding and exposed the family scandal by saying, "They are all like black-eyed chickens, wishing you could eat me and I can eat you."

2. Qu Chai manages the family: Because Sister Feng was ill, Mrs. Wang ordered Jia Tanchun to manage the family. Only three or four days after taking office, Wu Xinsheng started to make things difficult for Zhao Guoji with regard to the silver reward at his funeral. Jia Tanchun handled matters impartially and did not show favoritism. He also found a few good and bad things from respectable people such as Sister Feng, Baoyu, and Jia Lan to set examples and set an example for everyone. But her mother, Aunt Zhao, was instigated by others and came to make trouble, which made Jia Tanchun very sad.

After Jia Tanchun established his prestige and suppressed the wives and slaves, he carried out drastic reforms and made gains and eliminated disadvantages in the Grand View Garden. He received the strong support of Li Wan, Baochai, Sister Feng, and Ping'er, as well as the firmness of his servants. Baoyu also praised her.

3. Born as a concubine: Jia Tanchun, the third daughter of the Jia family, was born as a concubine of Jia Zheng. Because Jia's mother loved her granddaughter very much, she all studied with her grandmother. Lin Daiyu enters Jia's house, which is also Jia Tanchun's first appearance.

Jia Baoyu chose the character for Lin Daiyu, and Jia Tanchun revealed on the spot that it was his fabrication. When Concubine Yuan came to visit her relatives, Jia Tanchun wrote a poem based on her sister's poem. When making lantern riddles during the Spring Festival, Jia Zheng thought that the kites made by Jia Tanchun were floating things.

Qunfang moved into the Grand View Garden, and Jia Tanchun lived in Qiu Shuangzhai. On the day of the Manzhong Festival farewell party, Jia Tanchun asked Jia Baoyu to buy some small handicrafts for her when she went out to visit the temple fair, and promised to make a pair of shoes as a reward. This kind of trivial matter was often misunderstood by her mother, Aunt Zhao, who complained that she saved money to send money to Jia Baoyu, but did not send money to Jia Huan, and refused to make shoes for Jia Huan. Jia Tanchun was deeply troubled by this.

7. Xue Baoqin

Xue Baoqin walks in the snow in search of plum blossoms: Xue Baoqin has been wandering around since her father's death. Because her cousin Xue Baochai and her close relatives stayed temporarily in Jia Mansion, Xue Baoqin also Went to Jia Mansion. Jia's family got along very well with Lin Daiyu and other girls. One day in winter, Xue Baoqin, Lin Daiyu, Shi Xiangyun, Xue Baochai, Xing Xiuyan, Jia Baoyu and other people drank together and wrote poems. .

It happened that Miaoyu lived in a nunnery in Jia Mansion. There were large tracts of red plums near the nunnery, and everyone wanted to see the red plums. Because Miaoyu is a noble person, everyone does not have a good relationship with her. So Jia Baoyu went to the nunnery and broke a red plum. Unexpectedly, Xue Baoqin also went to look for red plums. The fur coat.

Furthermore, she is very beautiful, so the bright red fur and delicate plum blossoms make her even more beautiful. Jia Mu was stunned for a moment and asked Xichun to draw Xue Baoqin's beauty.

8. Jia Tanchun

1. Jia Tanchun’s sister Feng is ill: Tanchun helps manage the family. When his uncle died, Tanchun followed the rules and "rewarded" twenty taels of silver as usual. As a result, the mother and daughter had a huge quarrel. Tanchun embarked on the second step of the reform, abolishing unnecessary expenses and cutting costs: canceling the snacks, paper, and pen fees for Baoyu and others to go to school; canceling the monthly fee for hair oil and powder for each girl; and appointing the mother-in-law who serves in the garden. The son and daughter-in-law take on various tasks respectively. Tanchun Lijia has received recognition and support from many people.

An insulting daughter and a foolish concubine fighting for leisure: Wang Xifeng is unwell, and Li Wan and Tanchun take care of the affairs of the house, with Baochai helping out. Aunt Zhao's brother died, and Li Wan wanted to give 40 taels of silver as a favor, but Tanchun only gave 20 taels of silver according to the rules. Aunt Zhao felt that she was too young and blamed her own daughter for only focusing on the high branches and forgetting the roots. Tanchun was so angry that she cried, saying that she only recognized Mrs. Wang and not Aunt Zhao.

2. Tanchun founded the "Begonia Poetry Society": In the early autumn, Jia Tanchun became very popular and wrote to Baoyu proposing to form a society to compose poems. It happened that Jia Yun sent two pots of precious white begonias to Xiaojing Baoyu, so the sisters and Baoyu established the Begonia Poetry Society.

Li Wan Li Wan recommended himself as the president, nicknamed Daoxiang Lao Nong, Tan Chun Qiu Shuang Jushi, Daiyu Xiaoxiang Concubine, Baoyu Rich Idle Person, and the rest of them named themselves one by one. The first event was "Ode to the White Begonia". Among the poems about Bai Haitang, Xue Baochai's poems are the leading ones.

9. Miaoyu

1. Miaoyu offered tea: After hearing this, Miaoyu hurriedly went to cook tea. Baoyu paid attention to see how he behaved. I saw Miaoyu personally holding a small tea tray with begonia style carved lacquer and filled with gold to express the longevity of Yunlong, with a small kiln multicolored covered clock inside, and presented it to Jia Mu. [1]?

2. Miaoyu poured tea: Miaoyu took out two more cups... Miaoyu poured a cup and handed it to Baochai... Miaoyu poured a cup [Qiao Pan] and Daiyu. He still poured out the green jade he used to have tea with before and poured it with the precious jade... Hearing this, Miaoyu was very happy, so he found a nine-curved, ten-ringed, 120-knot cricket carved from bamboo. A large [dish] from the root came out... Miaoyu held the pot and poured about a cup into the sea. [1]?

3. Visiting Jia’s mother: I saw Miaoyu wearing a Miaochang bun [jì] on her head, wearing a moon-white coat with plain sleeves, and a long paddy green satin trimmed outer cover. The vest is tied with an autumn-colored silk ribbon, and a white silk skirt painted in light ink is tied around the waist. She holds a rosary in her hand. Followed by a waiter, fluttering over.

10. Li Wan

Li Wan founded a poetry club: After entering the Grand View Garden, Li Wan's mental outlook took on a new look. On February 22nd, the girls moved into the garden. Before spring was over, only about a month later, she thought of setting up a poetry club.

Li Wan’s poetry club was not just for entertainment. You must know that any major social change starts with culture. The Renaissance in the West and the May Fourth Movement in China are all proof.

This fully shows that her heart is not "like an ancient well", but is surging with waves, expecting change, and full of desire for a better and happy life.
