Although both Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai are well-known names, people around them have different names for them. For example, Grandmother Jia usually calls her Lin Daiyu. In the 40th episode of A Dream of Red Mansions, Granny Liu came to the Grand View Garden, and Grandmother Jia said? Two moons are the most annoying? . It can be seen that if Lin Daiyu is called a jade girl according to common sense, the word jade is also used by Jia Baoyu. The ancients thought that the names of people with high status were taboo, so his minions usually dared not call Lin Daiyu a jade girl, otherwise Jia Baoyu would easily be taboo.
Another detail in A Dream of Red Mansions is that Qingwen wore a pair of red sleeping shoes when fighting with others, which were worn by ancient women who bound their feet. Jia Lian's concubine, You Sanjie, the younger sister of Second Sister You, is also a pair of golden lotus flowers, which shows that Second Sister You is also a foot-binding, belonging to the Han nationality. But Xue Baochai came to Beijing, and she wanted to be a candidate. In ancient times, only Manchu banners could be female practitioners, so Xue Baochai must be Manchu. At this time, Manchu can also be distinguished by the names of Lin Shantou and Bao Shantou.
In addition, there are few people in Lin Daiyu's family, and her parents have passed away, so at this time, Lin Daiyu represents the whole Lin family and is the daughter of a flower-exploring forest. There is no other owner in this garden named Lin, which can be seen at a glance. Xue Baochai is called Miss Bao because her mother, Aunt Xue, usually calls her Miss Bao, and Mrs. Wang sometimes casually calls her, so everyone calls her that.
