Lin Daiyu is the foreign girl of the Jia family. Lin Daiyu's parents died, and Jia's mother was distressed by Lin Daiyu. She was afraid that an orphan girl would be wronged in the Lin family, so she took the young Lin Daiyu back to the Jia family to raise her. It can be seen that Jia is very distressed by this granddaughter. Although Jia Zheng is the master of the Jia family, it is Jia who has the highest status in the Jia family. If Jia Fei wants to ask anything, Jia Zheng should also listen to his mother. After all, in ancient times, filial piety was the first thing. Therefore, Lin Daiyu is taken a fancy to by the Jia family and her position in the Jia family will not be low. Jia Lian is a shrewd man, so he can't be ignorant, so he will get along with Lin Daiyu and please the grandmother, so his position in the Jia family will also rise.
Secondly, Lin Ruhai, Lin Daiyu's father, was a salt inspector in Qing Dynasty, so Lin Ruhai's money was definitely expensive, and Lin Daiyu was an only child. The money must belong to Lin Daiyu, and Jia Lian is kind to Lin Daiyu. Lin Daiyu will naturally be very close to Jia Lian, a cousin. Lin Daiyu is a delicate lady who doesn't understand the world. Even when she grows up, she can't manage this huge property well. Then Jia Lian, the cousin, can do it for her.
Therefore, Jia Lian is very concerned about Lin Daiyu, because Lin Daiyu can not only help him improve his position in the Jia family, but also bring him benefits, but Xue Baochai is different. Xue Baochai, like his wife Wang Xifeng, is a sophisticated person. Such a woman Jia Lian can't get any benefits from her, so he will be kind to Lin Daiyu and turn a blind eye to Xue Baochai.
