Xue Pan's melon lotus root and his jokes.

This plot comes from the 26th episode of A Dream of Red Mansions, "The Bee Waist Bridge set up words to convey worries, and Xiaoxiang Pavilion had an affair when it was sleepy in spring". In the name of Jia Zheng, Xue Pan tricked Baoyu into eating lotus root, wax gourd, sturgeon and smoked Siam pig on his birthday by baking tea and attacking others, and even joked about "Tang Yin" as "Huang Geng".

When Xue Pan met Jia Baoyu, he said, "... because the third day of May is my birthday tomorrow, but Cheng Rixing of the antique shop doesn't know where to find such a crisp fresh lotus root, such a big watermelon, such a long fresh sturgeon, and such a big Siamese pig. ..... Fish and You Zhu are expensive and rare, but how did he grow lotus roots and melons? I quickly showed my filial piety to my mother, and my mother quickly sent some to your old lady, aunt, and aunt ... except me, only you deserve to eat. "

Both "Siam" and "Tribute" are related to the palace. Leng Zixing, an antique dealer, gave Xue Pan four birthday gifts: crisp fresh lotus root, big watermelon, live sturgeon and smoked Siamese pig. From this passage, we can see that Xue Pan has an empty stomach and a poor language, but we can also see that he is a sincere person, and whoever is good to him will be really good to him. Of course, this time Jia Baoyu was invited, and Xue Baochai's idea was indispensable. Later, Baoyu returned to Yihong Courtyard, and Xue Baochai followed him and said, "My brother specially invited me to dinner yesterday, but I didn't eat him. Tell him to keep it and ask someone to give it away. " I know I'm too lucky to eat that. "So, hairpin fans don't have to be annoyed by my comments. Xue Pan can listen to his sister, which also proves that he is a good brother.

"I hurried to pay my respects to my mother." It can be seen that Xue Pan is a dutiful son. Aunt Xue's "rushing to send some to your old lady, menstruation and aunt" shows that Aunt Xue values family ties, and on the other hand, it shows that her communication with Jia Fu contains a certain degree of ingratiation, although it is common for rich and powerful people to give gifts to each other.

Some people think that the author of A Dream of Red Mansions is not Cao Xueqin, because according to the etiquette of feudal society, Cao Xueqin should avoid using the name of his grandfather Cao Yin.

Xue Pan's "Lotus Melon", though small, expresses a lot of information. In a sense, Xue Pan is a warm man. "Who do you want to marry in A Dream of Red Mansions?" Someone replied that they wanted to marry Xue Pan.
