A Dream of Red Mansions vividly depicts Wang Xifeng's appearance from the perspective of Lin Daiyu's entering the Jia family. First write her hearty laughter and unconstrained language, and then write her dazzling and bejeweled, so an elegant and powerful figure emerges from the paper.
Wang Xifeng, who is good at acting and observing, naturally wants to please the grandmother of her ancestors, and she is also enthusiastic about Daiyu's entry into the Jia family.
Xi-feng took Daiyu's hand, looked her up and down carefully, and said with a smile, "There are such beautiful people in the world, and I just saw them today!" Besides, she is not like the grandchild of her ancestors, but the granddaughter of her first relatives. Later, it was thoughtful to use Daiyu material to cut clothes.
Wang Xifeng's words and deeds show her keen and shrewd nature to the fullest: she not only praised Lin Daiyu's beauty and praised Jia Mu to the sky, but also perfectly demonstrated her skills and bullying.
The writing characteristics of Lin Daiyu's entry into Jia's mansion;
Through Lin Daiyu's eyes, the author let Wang Xifeng meet the reader for the first time, and made a static sketch description of her clothing posture, from head to toe, meticulous to minimal, until the "last button" (Ibsen language).
Here, the author does not hesitate to put Wang Xifeng's clothing layout incisively and vividly. What a noble image of young women. When writing clothes, we should first sum up the perfect image, and then make an extravagant description. From three aspects: headdress, skirt and dress, we try our best to lay out the makeup of jewelry, show her luxury and power, and also imply her greed and vulgarity.
The way it is written is meticulous and superb. Triangular eyes, eyebrows hanging from the tip of the nose, and cunning and cunning are hidden under the beautiful appearance. Sensitive Daiyu has realized that although she is full of spring breeze and pleasant, she can imply terrible power, great scheming and great affectation.
As for the heroine Lin Daiyu, who is condensed by Cao Xueqin's lifelong efforts, the author uses a virtual pen technique, not to mention her dress, but only captures her most vivid and typical charm.
