1. Lin Daiyu has been regarded by her parents as the apple of their eye since she was a child. She is also smart, beautiful and talented, which has formed the character of "self-admiration" in the future. But in Rongguo Mansion, a place of right and wrong, the masters are scheming, deceiving each other, and hiding knives in their smiles. On the surface, they are sanctimonious, but in their hearts, they are men stealing and women prostitutes. Even some slaves and slaves tend to follow others, flattering and fighting openly and secretly. In such a specific environment, Lin Daiyu had to "pay attention every step of the way and be on guard at all times, for fear of being laughed at by others." In addition, Lin Daiyu had no money and power, was frail and sick, and had an "inferiority" emotion added to her character. And this kind of conflict with her "self-confidence" inevitably leads to fierce inner conflict.
However, to understand Lin Daiyu’s illness, we must first analyze her eccentric character and specific situation. In Jia Baoyu's eyes, Sister Lin "is as quiet as a delicate flower shining on the water, and moves like a weak willow supporting the wind. Her heart is more delicate than Gan's, and her illness is like that of Xizi." In short, the author describes a beautiful woman for us. , the appearance and inner world of "Sick Xishi" who is frail, sentimental, sentimental and suspicious.
The "Nei Jing" of Chinese medicine says: "All diseases are caused by Qi." The cause of Lin Daiyu's disease also lies in this "Qi". Explained in today's terms, "qi" refers to emotion. The quality of a person's emotion will undoubtedly directly affect his health. Indeed, sentimentality is the main characteristic of Lin Daiyu's character. Lin Daiyu's parents died at an early age, leaving pain in her heart. She is very sad and sentimental, and is very sensitive to the dark, negative and pessimistic sides of things. When you see flowers blooming, you think of the scene of flowers falling; when you see other people's families reunited, you think of your parents having died, and you are left alone under the fence. So I often sigh to the sky alone and cry at the window. If you encounter something that doesn't go your way, you will be more likely to feel depressed and even cry all day long.
Jia Baoyu is Lin Daiyu’s only lover. In a feudal society, this is undoubtedly a huge spiritual support for a weak woman like her. But the feudal ethics have become an insurmountable obstacle to realizing her good wishes. Between her and Jia Baoyu, Xue Baochai was inserted. In addition, Lin Daiyu was suspicious and jealous by nature, so she often became willful and angry, tortured herself, and added a lot of troubles and sadness to herself.
