Who do you think is the smartest woman in Dream of Red Mansions?

There are many kinds of intelligence, and there are many clever girls in "A Dream of Red Mansions". People like Wang Xifeng and Tanchun are very talented and can manage affairs and employ people. Daiyu and Miaoyu are talented and quick in writing. Xiangling is thirsty for knowledge and can understand it with just one point. If I understand "smart" here as great wisdom, then the smartest ones are Baochai and Xichun.

Many people have talked about Baochai. Here we mainly talk about Xichun.

In fact, Xichun's presence in "A Dream of Red Mansions" is not very high, and it is far less dazzling than Daiyu Baochai, Feng Geer Tanchun and others. But she is very unique. Xichun looked very indifferent. One time when Youshi was talking to her, Xichun choked her after not saying a few words. Xichun said that she was such an innocent person, why should she be ruined by them. Youshi was very angry. This sounds really sad, but it is true when you think about it.

Youshi was angry because Xichun had really touched her sore spot. Qin Keqing, Second Sister You, and Third Sister You were all confused. Xichun should have noticed a long time ago that apart from the stone lion at the door, even the cats and dogs in Jia's house were unclean, so she didn't want to wade into this muddy water.

Xichun’s girl was found to be at fault. Not only did Xichun not intercede for her, but instead asked Wang Xifeng to deal with her quickly. She couldn’t explain how much trouble she was in. This is indeed a kind of decision-making and calmness that comes only after seeing through the essence of the matter.

Xichun had long "explored that the three spring scenes would not last long" and had long discovered that the Jia family was already in decline. However, she was powerless and just wanted to be alone, so she wanted to escape into Buddhism early on. The Qingdeng Ancient Buddha is her inevitable destination. Xichun is younger than other girls, but she can see the future destiny of the Jia family at a young age. This wisdom can be said to be very rare.
