Daiyu

Did Lin Ruhai leave a rich legacy to Lin Daiyu? Is Lin Daiyu poor or really rich and beautiful? These questions are puzzling countless red mysteries. Lin Daiyu is not a wasteful person. In A Dream of Red Mansions, she didn't throw twenty taels for Shi Xiangyun like Xue Baochai, nor did she export fifty taels for Rainbow Xifeng, a poetry club. However, Lin Daiyu is not a stingy person. The little maid who brought tea is a handful of money, and the old lady who sent bird's nest is several hundred dollars.

What is Lin Daiyu's economic situation? Lin Daiyu is in Jiafu, and the amount of silver is two taels a month, just like Jia Fu's spring outing and cherishing spring. This money comes from the official, that is, Jia Fu's office. However, in addition to Lin Daiyu's two silvers a month, the grandmother also gave her personal money. Jia Jiahui, the maid in Jia Baoyu's room, went to send tea to Lin Daiyu, just as the grandmother was sending money to Lin Daiyu. This fully shows that the grandmother gave Lin Daiyu private money every month.

Lin Daiyu takes a little more money than others every month, but she also spends a lot of money every month. Jia's servants are tricky. They have to tip every month and get drunk. Xing once said that he would give one or two pieces of silver to women to drink every month. Xiren asked a woman to give something to Shi Xiangyun, and she had to tip hundreds of dollars ... Similarly, Lin Daiyu gave a lot of tips every month. However, Lin Daiyu still has an expense. Lin Daiyu is ill. Although seeing a doctor is also money in the government, it takes people (tips) to decoct medicine. It needs extra health care ... these are more expenses for Lin Daiyu than others.

Lin Daiyu herself mentioned her economic situation many times in A Dream of Red Mansions. When burying flowers, she said that for 360 days a year, wind, sword and frost pressed each other, which was not only the warmth of human feelings, but also the weakness of money. When she shook hands with Xue Baochai, Xue Baochai suggested that she eat bird's nest. She confided that she couldn't afford it. I have nothing, food and clothing, a piece of grass and a piece of paper, and I like their girls. What's wrong with that little man? Lin Daiyu described herself as "having nothing" here. Many people analyzed that Lin Ruhai did not leave her a huge legacy.

But is this really the case? Is Lin Daiyu really poor to nothing? The Lins IV was Hou, and the Lins' family background was definitely not bad. In Lin Ruhai's generation, Lin Ruhai was very promising and became a salt inspector, which was a well-paid job. I can't describe the Lins as rich as oil, but they are also rich. The Lins used to be hereditary and would have their own grange, which was one of the economic sources of the Lins. Lin Ruhai's official position is the second largest source of income for the Lins. The Lins' two major sources of income should not be underestimated.

Rong Hening came to Jia Zheng's generation and lived mainly by collecting rent. Their hereditary office and Jia Zheng's office itself don't have much salary, and they can live a colorful life, not to mention the Lins' office. In addition, the Lin family's population is dying, and Lin Daiyu doesn't even have a close uncle. It is very likely that Grandpa Lin Ruhai's generation has been in the wrong position, and one of the benefits of population death is that the daily expenses are low. For example, Ningguo Mansion and Guorong Mansion have a large population, and their own expenses are already very large. They also have to take care of the people in the family, and the burden is not ordinary.

More importantly, the Lins are frugal and the Lins are not short of money. When Lin Daiyu arrived at Jia's house, she felt that Jia's house was not generally magnificent, and the food and clothing of the servants were also extraordinary. It can be seen that the Lins have always been simple and do not advocate luxury. The Lins have huge economic resources and low expenses. What about the rest of the money? The Lins' support is crooked, and Lin Ruhai left all the money to Lin Daiyu, of course! How much did Lin Ruhai leave to Lin Daiyu? Wang Xifeng once played a joke on Lin Daiyu in front of everyone, proving that Lin Daiyu inherited a huge legacy.

After Jia Baoyu was burned by Jia Huan, Wang Xifeng, Li Wan, Xue Baochai, Lin Daiyu and Jia Fu all came to see him in March. During this period, Wang Xifeng asked if the tea they had given before was good, and everyone felt bad. Only Lin Daiyu said yes. Wang Xifeng said to give her the rest and ask her one more thing. At this time, Lin Daiyu joked that after eating a little of her tea, she began to employ people. As soon as Wang Xifeng heard this, she began to zoom in! Feng smiled and said, "Forget it, you gossip. You drink tea and water. Since you have eaten our tea, why don't you give us a wife? " They all laughed together.

Lin Daiyu blushed and spat at Wang Xifeng, calling her loquacious and mean. Feng smiled and said, "Don't dream! You made a daughter-in-law for our family. What do you lack? " Pointing to Baoyu, he said, "Look, people, families, foundations and furniture are not worthy." Who insulted you? "When a man hires a woman, he doesn't deliberately mention that his furniture is better than her, but search only emphasizes Jia Baoyu's furniture, which can only explain one problem. Although Lin Daiyu has a lot of furniture, Jia Baoyu's furniture has never insulted Lin Daiyu! How much furniture does Jia Baoyu have? Does this need to be calculated?

Lin Daiyu's legacy was brought back by Jia Lian. Jia Mu, Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng all know how much inheritance Lin Daiyu has inherited, and Lin Daiyu knows it in her heart. Otherwise, Wang Xifeng wouldn't emphasize to her that Jia Baoyu's furniture is not worse than her. Wang Xifeng's joke proves that Lin Daiyu's legacy will not be less than Guo Rongjia's today!
