In the Grand View Garden, almost only Baochai is dull every day. He said: "I am most afraid of fragrance, good clothes and smoke." He commented that "Miss Baochai never loved these flowers and pink flowers." For Baochai's simplicity, Zhi Yanzhai can't help but admire "it's really a curse." Baoyu commented on Baochai's appearance and said that "Baochai's sister is a stunning figure", which shows Baochai's high face value.

Xue Baochai's family was superior, and her Xue family was one of the four big families at that time. "Heavy snow in good years, pearls as gold as iron" is a poem used by Cao Xueqin to describe the Xue family, which makes people know its wealth at a glance. It stands to reason that Xue Baochai should be a lady who lives a leisurely life without any troubles. And Xue Baochai is a woman who dresses simply and doesn't pay attention to wealth and leisure makeup. She doesn't like extravagance and waste, and she never smokes incense on her clothes. Born rich, but not addicted to wealth, exudes a different personality charm.
It is not unreasonable that Xue Baochai can be loved by many peers and servants in a complicated place. Xue Baochai is tolerant, gentle, demure, generous and decent, and sociable. Everyone likes her except her elders. Even Aunt Zhao, who hates everyone to the bone, said that she was "generous and decent". Shi Xiangyun once said, "If only Sister Bao were my own sister", and even said that Xue Baochai was "flawless".
When getting along with her sisters, Xue Baochai always cares about others silently. When getting along with the inferior people, she always understands their difficulties, thinks for them everywhere and always gives them help when necessary. Aroma regarded her as a god, and Liu's wife, the rice manager, privately praised Baochai as a "girl who knows her body". Shi Xiangyun even said, "None of these sisters is better than Sister Bao. Unfortunately, we are not sons of bitches-it doesn't matter if I have such a sister, even if I lose my parents. " It can be seen that Xue Baochai's kindness is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
