Sister Lin

Lin Daiyu

Lin Daiyu is the heroine of a dream of Red Mansions.

Jia Min, the youngest daughter of the Rongfu family, is the only daughter of Lin Ruhai, the imperial censor of Yangzhou Salt patrol. Her mother Jia Min is the youngest of the four daughters of Jia Daishan and Jia Mu. Lin Daiyu is the granddaughter of Jia's mother, Jia Baoyu's cousin, lover and confidant. Jia's family is known as Miss Lin.

She was born with beautiful appearance and poetic talent. She is a classic female image full of aura in ancient literature. She was smart and pretty from childhood, and her parents loved her as a treasure. He went to school at the age of 5, his mother died early at the age of 6 or 7, and he learned from Jia Yu village at the age of 10.

Her grandmother, Jia Shi, loved her youngest daughter, Jia Min, loved her family and Daiyu. When she was 10 years old, she was brought up and educated by her side. She lived and slept like her own grandson, Jia Baoyu. Living and eating with 11 year old Jia Baoyu, they are all managed by Jia's mother. They think that their status is higher than that of Sanchun. In fact, they are only close relatives of a generation apart. They are very unhappy because they were last sent palace flowers by Mrs. Wang's servants. When he was 11 years old, he died his father again. Since then, he has lived in Jia's house and developed a character of being aloof and arrogant. At the age of 12, after Jia Yuanchun visited his relatives, Lin Daiyu moved into the Xiaoxiang Pavilion and became Xiaoxiang's concubine in the Daguanyuan poetry club.

Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu were childhood friends. Zhi Yanzhai said that "two jades are close to Zhongyuan" and "they are far away". The myth of Jiangzhu returning tears endowed Lin Daiyu with charming poet temperament and set the tone of tragedy at the same time.

Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai are tied for the first place in the list of Taixu dreamland talented women. They both have the dispute of virtue and talent in human nature, the dispute of gold and wood in marriage, and they cherish each other because they belong to the two endowments of good and evil. Lin Daiyu finally died in tears on the wedding night of Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochai.

Character appearance

Although the body is not vulgar, it has a natural manner to stop. two curved eyebrows are like frowning, but not frowning; one pair is like loving eyes, but not loving eyes. State of two dimples of worry, Jiao attack a disease. Little tears, tiny gasps. Leisure is like a beautiful flower shining on the water, action is like a weak willow supporting the wind. The heart is more than the stem, and the disease like Xizi wins three points. He has a unique beauty and a rare beauty. The poem says that "the beauty of a girl should be rare in the world.".

Family background

ancestors

Lin Daiyu's family background is introduced in the second chapter of a dream of Red Mansions. His ancestor was a marquis who had only been granted three generations. Later, Jiaen was granted another generation until Lin Daiyu's grandfather. From the perspective of historical prototype, liehou was the highest rank of the twenty rank Dukes from the Qin Dynasty to the Chen Dynasty. In the Western Han Dynasty, it was generally County dukes, while in the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were Xiang dukes and Ting dukes. In the Southern Dynasties of the Three Kingdoms, it was a general term for the granted dukes, from Ting Dukes to princes. However, according to the system of demoting and attacking nobility in the Qing Dynasty, the one who can only attack three generations is, in theory, Qi Duwei. Lin Ruhai, the father of Lin Daiyu, has only a few clans. But on the other hand, although the Lin family is a family of Zhongding, it is also a family of scholarly people.

father

Lin Daiyu's father, Lin Ruhai, is the first to see the criminal record (the "criminal record") refers to the previous section, not any previous one, and then to write a certain section, such as Jia Jing is the Jin Mo, but not the criminal record, and promoted to the post of the Lantai temple for more than January, and transferred to Yangzhou to serve as the salt inspector. When she married Jia Min, she gave birth to a daughter, Lin Daiyu. When Daiyu was five years old, Lin Ruhai was 40 years old. She had no son (her youngest son died early when he was three years old) and asked Jia Yucun to teach her how to read. When Daiyu was six years old, Jia Min died of a disease. Lin Ruhai sent Daiyu to her mother-in-law, Jia Mu. Later, Lin Ruhai died of a serious illness in Yangzhou, and Jia Lian helped manage the funeral.

mother

His mother Jia Min is the youngest of the four daughters of Jia Dai Shan and Jia Mu. Jia's mother dotes on her youngest daughter Jia Min very much, so Jia Min's marriage is not a political marriage. In the choice of Jia Min's marriage, Jia Daishan and Jia's mother chose Jia Min's personal happiness instead of Jia's family interests, so they married Jia Min to Lin Ruhai, who is knowledgeable and outstanding in character. Jia's family betrothed her youngest daughter to Lin Ruhai. She was interested in Lin Ruhai's character and talent, rather than Lin's family background. Instead of being used by her parents as a tool for political marriage, Jia Min married to the powerful family. Instead, she married Lin's family, who was not high in family background and had a rare but scholarly atmosphere. When the family flourished, Jia's family considered the happiness of their children in marriage and did not need to rely on the power of their parents. Therefore, Jia Min married Lin Ruhai. When the family was in decline, the Jia family needed to get support by marriage with powerful people. Therefore, they would rather sacrifice the happiness of Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu than choose a political marriage of golden and jade for the sake of the family's future.

family circumstances

There are different views on Lin Daiyu's family background. Tu Ying, a man of the Qing Dynasty, first raised the issue of Daiyu's family property. According to Jia Lian's saying in Chapter 72 of a dream of red mansions that "it would be better for this Hui Zi to make another three or two million dollars", he proposed that Lin Daiyu should have his father Lin Ruhai's millions of legacy, but it was embezzled by the Jia family. Liu Xinwu, a contemporary scholar, also believes that the censor of xunyan belongs to feichai. Lin Ruhai should have a huge legacy, but Daiyu didn't get her father's huge legacy because Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng embezzled it. According to the description of the source of Lin Daiyu's monthly money in the book, Chen Dakang speculates that Lin Ruhai's family property flowed into Jia's house, which was used not only for Daiyu's daily needs, but also for the construction of Daguan garden. other researchers discuss Lin Daiyu's right to inherit Lin Ruhai's family property from the perspective of legal history. One of them holds that Daiyu does not have the right to inherit Lin Ruhai's family property, so Lin Ruhai tries to transfer her property to Jia's house, only to find that her property is embezzled by Jia's house. some researchers have different views on Daiyu's family property and its whereabouts. Dai yingniao believes that Lin Ruhai is upright, not greedy for officials; at the same time, extortion from powerful people, medical needs, the placement of concubines, ancestral temple worship and so on, will further consume his family property, leaving little for Daiyu. Jing Yugui pointed out that under the supervision of Jia's mother, Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng had no courage to embezzle Lin Ruhai's heritage, and the construction cost of Grand View Garden could not come from Daiyu's huge family property. In a word, there are still disputes on this issue in the academic circles.

Life figures

The origin of fairyland

On the Bank of Sansheng stone in the western spirit River, jiangzhuxiancao was irrigated with sweet dew every day by Shenying waiters in the Chixia palace. It took off the birth of plants and plants, transformed into human form, and cultivated into a female body. All day long, it swam away from the heaven, hungry for secret fruits and thirsty for water. Because it has not yet rewarded the virtue of irrigation, it has a lingering meaning. When Shen Ying's servant fan Xinou came down to earth and was reincarnated, Lin Daiyu, who was reincarnated into a blood relative of Jia family, would like to return him with all her tears for the dew of the past.

family origin

Lin Daiyu, originally from Suzhou, moved to Yangzhou when she was five years old because her father was an official. Mother Jia Min was the youngest daughter of Jia's four daughters. His father, Lin Ruhai, was a visiting scholar in the criminal record. He was originally a doctor from Lantai temple, and later transferred to Yangzhou to serve as a salt inspector. Although the Lin family is not a rich family, it is a scholarly family. Lin Daiyu once had a younger brother who was one year younger and died when she was three years old. So her parents loved her as a treasure. Seeing that she was smart and beautiful, they invited Jia Yucun to be a tutor to teach her how to read and write and pretend to be an adopted son. Lin Daiyu was six or seven years old. Her mother died of a disease.

Baodaichai's first meeting at the age of 10-12

Jia's mother took her to her side because she had no one to support her. Daiyu was 10 years old, Baoyu was 11 years old, Baochai, Qingwen, Xiren and Xiangling were 13 years old, Xue pan was 15 years old, Jia Lian was more than 20 years old, Fengjie was 20 years old, Jia LAN was 5 years old, Jia Zhu was 23-24 years old, Jia Yuanchun was 22-23 years old, Yingchun was 11-12 years old, Tanchun was 10-11 years old, Xichun was 10 years old, Shi Xiangyun was 10-11 years old, Jia Zhenyou was more than 30 years old. When she first met Jia Baoyu, she asked her if she had any jade. She truthfully replied that she didn't. unexpectedly, Jia Baoyu was so crazy that she threw her jade on the spot. She felt guilty and wept alone at night. In the end of winter, Jia's mother made room for Daiyu in the Bisha cupboard. Jia Baoyu moved out to sleep on the bed outside the Bisha cupboard. Fucha Mingyi's poem says that "if you are young, you may as well stay in the same room, but if you dream of more than one tent", it is the scene of Baodai sleeping in the same room through the blue gauze cabinet. After Lin Daiyu entered Rongfu, Jia's mother loved her as much as Jia Baoyu. They are close and friendly. They go together and sit together in the day, and rest together in the night. It's really agreeable. Don't want to suddenly come a Xue Baochai, who is bigger than Lin Daiyu. Therefore, Lin Daiyu felt depressed. Because Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu sit and lie together with Jia's mother, they are a little more familiar than other sisters. If they are familiar with each other, they feel more intimate. If they are intimate, they will inevitably be destroyed by seeking perfection. Lin Daiyu was 10 years old. At the end of winter, her father was seriously ill. Jia Lian sent Lin Daiyu to Yangzhou to visit her relatives. On the third day of September the next year, his father died of illness and was buried in Suzhou. In late November, Lin Daiyu and Jia Lian returned to Beijing and have lived in Jia's house ever since.

12 year old Lin Daiyu buried flowers

Yuanyue Lantern Festival, Yuanchun visit relatives, Lin Daiyu secretly for Jia Baoyu made a song "apricot curtain in sight", Yuanchun evaluation of this song is better than Jia Baoyu's first three capitals. On February 22, Qunfang stayed in Daguanyuan, while Lin Daiyu stayed in Xiaoxiang Pavilion. In the middle of March, Lin Daiyu buried flowers. Jia Baoyu wants to bury the fallen flowers in the water, while Lin Daiyu thinks that the water in the Grand View Garden is clean, but once it flows out, people outside are dirty and stinky, and they still collapse the flowers. So she made a flower grave in the corner of the garden, swept the fallen flowers, put them in a silk bag, buried them with earth, and let them melt with the earth, so that they could be clean. Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu read the West Chamber
