Why did Lin Daiyu not inherit the Lin family s property

The Lin family is a declining landlord family, and she left the family very early, and in feudal society, women have no conditions to inherit the family property.

Both parents died, and he lived with his maternal grandmother.

If Lin Ruhai's family property is according to the law, it will still be inherited by Lin Daiyu, and it will not be inherited by the collateral of the Lin family.

1. Ancient inheritance laws.

In ancient times, the status of women was very low, generally speaking, only sons had the right to inherit in the family, and daughters only had a little dowry, which is still the case in many modern families. Women in feudal times were not completely unable to inherit the family property, and it was only possible to inherit most of the family property when there were no brothers in the family at all. This provision was only in place during the Tang Dynasty.

In ancient times, if a family did not have a son, but the head of the family had an illegitimate child outside the family, the illegitimate son could also inherit the family property, and the son who passed over in the whole family could still inherit the family property, and the girl had a dowry.

2. Inheritance laws related to the Qing Dynasty.

The book Dream of Red Mansions was written during the Qing Dynasty, which inherited the system of the Ming Dynasty, which means that the Qing Dynasty was similar to the Ming Dynasty in terms of inheritance law, that is, only girls could inherit the property in the family cultivation without stepchildren and illegitimate children. Lin Daiyu's family is suitable for using the laws of the Qing Dynasty, so Lin Daiyu herself must have the right to inherit, and the key to Zen China depends on whether Lin Ruhai has other children.

3. Lin Daiyu inherited the family property.

Judging from the various information in the Dream of Red Mansions, Lin Ruhai has no step-son, and he only has Lin Daiyu as an orphan girl. Moreover, the Lin family has a family property that has been passed down for 4 generations, and it is estimated that this family property is very large and can only be inherited by Sister Lin. Those collateral of the Lin family are not eligible to inherit property.

Later, Lin Ruhai died, and Jiafu sent the second master of the family to escort Lin Daiyu home, which was actually inheriting Lin Ruhai's property. As for where these properties went, in fact, it can be deduced from some relevant information in the later stage, and there is a high probability that these properties were privately swallowed by Jia Lian to build the Grand View Garden. Therefore, although Lin Daiyu is sent to the fence, it is actually sent under the property of her own family, and the Jia family must bear Lin Daiyu.

Indeed, it is true, so Lin Ruhai's family property generally does not have Lin Ruhai's daughter, so Lin Daiyu will be sent to Jiafu.

Indeed it is. That's why Lin Daiyu is so poor. But I don't think that's in line with the rules.

There is a lot of speculation about where Lin Daiyu's family property went, and the more reliable one should be entrusted to Jia's mother before Lin Ruhai's death, and Jia's mother will keep it on her behalf.

The property inherited by Lin Daiyu in "Dream of Red Mansions", Lin Ruhai was transferred to the Jia family. The Grand View Garden of the Jia family was built with the money brought by Lin Daiyu.

All the property inherited by Lin Daiyu was subsidized to Jiafu, she had no father and mother, she was very pitiful, and she was sent under the fence.

His father and mother did not leave him a lot of property, and his status in Jia Mansion was not particularly high, so he did not have some and a lot of property, and these properties may have been appropriated by others, so it was of no meaning to him, and there was no money.
