What is the reason why Lin Daiyu called Grandma Liu a mother locust ?

Lin Daiyu in "Dream of Red Mansions" was a crimson pearl grass next to Sansheng Stone in her previous life. In order to repay the irrigation kindness, she went down to earth with the help of others, so we all had what we called a sister Lin falling from the sky. Because of this, we see that Lin Daiyu was completely arrogant and ruthless in the early stage of "Dream of Red Mansions", and it seems that she does not eat fireworks in the world.

But the strange thing is that when Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden, Daiyu seemed to have lost her "idol baggage", and was once questioned by readers and viewers for comparing Grandma Liu to a "mother locust". Regarding this matter, I think that the story written by Cao Xueqin, when the word "female locust" came out, completely made Lin Daiyu, the "fairy of the pearls", more real and three-dimensional. If you don't believe it, take a look.

As the two heroines of "Dream of Red Mansions", Baochai and Daiyu both have a large number of readers and fans, but at the same time, they always have a lot of things that are easy to criticize. Lin Daiyu compared Grandma Liu to a "mother locust", jokingly saying that it is not easy to paint in spring, and was once criticized as a typical example of "despising working people and bitter mouth". Correspondingly, Xue Baochai overheard the conversation between Xiaohong and Shen'er, and used Jie'er as a "shield" with an idea, which has been characterized by many people as her crime of "being dark-minded and duplicitous".

I think that perhaps as readers at this time, we may have overlooked one point: that is, these girls portrayed by Cao Xueqin.

Baochai's "blame" is a conditioned reflex in a hurry. As for Daiyu's evaluation and suspicion of her after she left, it was difficult for her to think so deeply in such a situation. As for Sister Lin's ridicule of Grandma Liu, she can be said to be open-minded, proving that she is open-minded, not to mention deliberately belittling and insulting.

But then again, Baochai subconsciously shouted out, somewhat affected by people's evaluation and discussion of Daiyu, she wanted to avoid it; Daiyu's intuitive metaphorical joke about Grandma Liu somewhat reflects her lack of understanding of the hardships of life at the bottom, and she is too young.

Because Grandma Liu has to bring something with her every time she comes to the Grand View Garden, and coming to the Grand View Garden is to fight the autumn breeze, so Lin Daiyu will say this.

Because Lin Daiyu didn't look down on Grandma Liu at all, she felt that Grandma Liu was a particularly vulgar person, so she said that.

After Grandma Liu came, she took a lot of things, and some of Grandma Liu's behaviors were relatively vulgar, and her eating appearance was not very good, so Daiyu didn't like her.

Because Grandma Liu was more rude to eat after she came, and she took a lot of things away, and she was as greedy as a locust.

Because Lin Daiyu knew about Grandma Liu's affairs. Grandma Liu also knows Daiyu's origin. It's just tacit.

The female locust" is nothing more than saying that Grandma Liu is a grasshopper after the autumn, and she can't jump for a while. Because there is also an old man Liu in Jinling. Another house that has been introduced.

Master Liu) is Master Liu.

We should not become a person who lives on our mother, do not become a person who lives on a big family, do not be corrupt, do not be corrupt in other people's wealth, and other people's powerful people must have their own abilities and opinions.

The original text has several clear foreshadowings on this:

First, Mrs. Wang was able to marry Jia Zheng, and Prince Tengneng took over Jingying from Jia Daihua as the envoy of Jingying, which was the intentional cultivation of the Jia family.

Wang Ziteng was ungrateful and "returned" the Jingying Festival envoy to the emperor, in exchange for his own promotion and the prosperity of the Wang family, and bit the Jia family, making the Jia family collapse.

On Mrs. Wang Ziteng's birthday, Jia's mother was "uncomfortable" and didn't go, which was a reaction to this.

Second, the golden and jade marriages of Mrs. Wang, Wang Xifeng and Xue Baochai all belong to the Wang family's "mother locust" plan, using their daughters to marry and have children, and then completely control Rongguo Mansion.

Jia Zhu, Jia Lan, Jia Yuanchun, Jia Baoyu, and Jia Qiaojie of Rongguo Mansion are all of the blood of the Wang family, how can these people not be affected by the Wang family when they grow up. The Wang family is strong, the Jia family is in decline, and it is not clear who controls whom.

When the Wang family opened their fangs and disregarded family affection, like Zhen Shiyin's father-in-law Feng Su, who wanted to devour their "son-in-law", it was "weak women" like Grandma Liu and Lin Daiyu who showed a fearless spirit of sacrifice.

In the end, most of the Jia family was opened to the net, and there was no legacy of Lin Daiyu and Jia Tanchun's two daughters marrying in a foreign country. It can be seen that it is clear from heaven!

Be sincere when dealing with others, don't be pretentious, don't lie, turn a blind eye, and don't care too much about things.

Locusts gnaw on grain everywhere they go, leaving nothing left, and are disgusted by the peasants. Lin Daiyu said that Grandma Liu's "mother locust" refers to Grandma Liu's eating too much. The reason why Lin Daiyu wants to laugh at Grandma Liu is not that Lin Daiyu has a bad character, what prejudice does Lin Daiyu have against this Grandma Liu, who deliberately pretends to be ugly and makes everyone laugh, Lin Daiyu will not treat others with an unfair attitude.

Lin Daiyu heard the attacker say bad things about her behind her back.

Lin Daiyu has never targeted the attacker after that, and has never said that the attack is bad, on the contrary, Lin Daiyu is also very close to the attacker, and she calls her "sister-in-law". Lin Daiyu called Grandma Liu a female locust, which was when everyone was helping Xichun find a way. When visiting the Grand View Garden, Grandma Liu said that the scenery of the Grand View Garden was more beautiful than the New Year's pictures hung during the New Year, so Mother Jia asked the painter to paint a good picture of Xichun to Grandma Liu.

And that's it, Xichun can't participate in Jia Baoyu's poetry club. So everyone came to comfort Xichun.

The original text is like this: Daiyu smiled: "It's all the old lady's words yesterday, and she asked her to draw a garden map, which made her happy to take leave!"

Tanchun smiled: "Don't blame the old lady, it's all that Grandma Liu's words." Lin Daiyu hurriedly smiled:

But what! It's all her words. What kind of grandmother is she, just call her a 'female locust'.

Everyone laughed. Daiyu's words at this time, everyone felt that there was no problem, it could be seen that it was just a joke between the young ladies and sons.

Moreover, the Grandma Liu that Lin Daiyu saw was Grandma Liu who ate and drank so much in the Grand View Garden that she had diarrhea, not Grandma Liu who worked and sweated in the farmland. If Lin Daiyu saw Grandma Liu like that, she would definitely not say that Grandma Liu was a "female locust". Lin Daiyu is actually used to making fun of people, but she doesn't make others uncomfortable.

For example, Tanchun named himself Banana Xiake, and Lin Daiyu ordered everyone to take Tanchun to stew preserved seeds and eat wine. It turned out that there was an allusion to banana leaves covering a deer, and Lin Daiyu compared Tanchun to a deer at this time.

Female locusts refer to eating many pests, which is annoying, Lin Daiyu saw that Grandma Liu was eating and drinking in the Daguan Garden until she had diarrhea, not working in the farmland and sweating Grandma Liu, so she said this.

Locusts are gnawing grain everywhere, there are no particles left everywhere, and they are disgusted by farmers, Lin Daiyu said that Grandma Liu is saying that Grandma Liu eats a lot, in fact, it is not that Lin Daiyu has a bad character, Daiyu will not treat others with an unfair attitude, the reason why Lin Daiyu calls Grandma Liu a female locust is that when everyone is helping to cherish the spring and find a way, when visiting the Grand View Garden, Grandma Liu said that the scenery of the Grand View Garden is more beautiful than the New Year's pictures hung during the New Year, so Mother Jia asked the best painting of the spring painting to Grandma Liu, In this way, Xichun can't participate in Jia Baoyu's poetry club, so everyone comes to comfort Xichun.

The mother locust means that a woman's heart is like a locust. Lin Daiyu laughed at Grandma Liu like this because Lin Daiyu had a prejudice against Grandma Liu, and she looked down on Grandma Liu's treatment.

Because Grandma Liu's every move, word and deed when she came to the Grand View Garden made Lin Daiyu feel incomprehensible, as far as that meal was concerned, Grandma Liu's gobbling up of food stunned everyone. Like locusts, there are no particles left.

refers to people who are dependent on others and rely on other people's help to live, Grandma Liu's family is poor, compared to Daguanyuan, it seems to be kindly taken in.

Because she felt that Grandma Liu had always enjoyed the favor of Jiafu, and she took advantage of it in various ways, similar to the behavior of locusts, so she said so.

I think this is because Grandma Liu's actions in Jia's house are like locusts crossing the border, and no grass grows, so Lin Daiyu said so.

Mainly because Lin Daiyu felt that Grandma Liu was too edible, so she used "female locusts" to mock her.
