Xue Baochai's thoughts are comparable to briquettes. She wants to get what she wants no matter what means she uses. If someone tries to give her advice, she will do everything possible to get it back. If she doesn't get it back at that time, she will lose her money later. All profits will be returned. When Baoyu praised Baochai for resembling Yang Guifei, he actually wanted to say that she was beautiful, but Baochai thought it was a disguised way of saying she was fat. In addition, Yang Guifei's private life was chaotic, so this metaphor made Baochai very angry.
1. The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Baochai thought that Baoyu was calling her fat in disguise.
What women care about most is nothing more than clothes, appearance, and body shape. Modern people will immediately refute if they are teased about being fat, let alone ancient times. Since ancient times, it has been a common problem for women to love beauty. Although Yang Guifei is a beauty, she is famous for being fat. However, at this time, it was popular for women with graceful figures and light bodies to be beautiful. Baoyu described Baochai as Yang Guifei to show the fact that Baochai had become fat. When talking about a woman's figure in public, Baochai is so good. How can a person with face not be angry?
2. Concubine Yang’s private life is known to everyone to be chaotic. Baochai would definitely be unhappy if Baoyu said this to her before she was married.
Although the love story between Yang Guifei and Tang Xuanzong is widely circulated, the rumor that she once married Tang Xuanzong's son is true. Women in ancient times were more traditional and believed in treating such unruly people forever. She was even more scornful. Although she was one of the four beauties in ancient times, she had a bad reputation. Baoyu compared Baochai to Yang Guifei to satirize her chaotic private life. For a girl who has not left the court, reputation is above all else, so Baoyu Chai Cai was very angry at Baoyu's indiscriminate remarks.
3. Concubine Yang was finally allowed to die in Maweiyi and the ending was very bad. Baoyu praised Baochai for being like Concubine Yang, so she naturally thought too much about it.
When Yang Guifei was alive, she did enjoy all the glory and delicacies, but the final ending was not good. Because her beauty was missed by An Lushan, it triggered the Anshi Rebellion. In order to save his country, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty could only escape during the The thought of killing An Lushan by concubine Yang Guifei, even though she was envied by the world, had a tragic ending. Baochai, who was overthinking, must have thought that Baoyu was implying that her ending would be as miserable as Concubine Yang, so Only then will he fall out on the spot.
In fact, Baoyu said that Baochai looked like Concubine Yang was just a joke between friends. He was simply praising Baochai for his charming appearance and had no other meaning. However, Baochai, who was overly concerned with one thing, did not think so. I think that's why I got angry with Baoyu.
