Time travel from the red building

Chapter 118 118. Sober Baoyu

When Jia Min chose a husband for Tanchun, she took her personality into consideration. She would not be like Yingchun's husband, who was content with the status quo and indifferent. Tanchun was more aggressive, so her husband should be the same. She is self-motivated and wants to achieve a career. If she marries such a man, she will be a very competent and virtuous wife; Always urging him to work hard and forge ahead would be a disaster for both of them.

The young man Jia Min found for Tanchun was a man with great ambitions. The family backgrounds of both parties were similar. His father was the second son of the Duke's mansion. He used to be famous, but now he is on the decline. The situation is a bit more complicated, but with Tanchun's ability, he can handle it completely, and the boy himself is very competitive, but he is only 16 years old, and he has already passed the exam. Unexpectedly, being able to pass the Jinshi examination before the age of 30 can be said to be a good match for Tanchun in all aspects, and Yun Qing also said that the two are compatible, so Jia Min matched them and quickly settled the marriage.

Yingchun got married last year, and Tanchun got engaged again this year. Sooner or later, the sisters will leave home and become members of someone else's family. Jia Baoyu gradually has a clear understanding of this matter.

He was studying at the Lin family, spending all day with his brothers, and the time spent with Lin Daiyu was greatly reduced. He reasoned that even if there were some dim signs between the two of them, they should have withered long ago, but I don't know if this is true. It was a fate from a previous life. Even though the two didn't have the conditions in the original book, they just got along as ordinary cousins, but Jia Baoyu still fell in love with Lin Daiyu.

Young people's thoughts are simple, and it is easy to see through something. Although Lin Ruhai is not at home often, he usually comes back once every two months and stays for two or three days, but in just a few days, he has already seen Jia Baoyu's thoughts clearly. Chu.

It's just that Jia Baoyu didn't meet Lin Ruhai's standards, and he didn't show any excesses of etiquette. If he blocked him forcefully, it would be self-defeating. Studying, teaching him all kinds of ways of life and communication, takes up his time and leaves him no time to think;
On the one hand, he raised his request to his son-in-law openly and secretly, that he should be good-tempered and able to tolerate Daiyu's little temper, and not let Daiyu be wronged; Only by being able to make contributions can she bring a stable life to Daiyu in the future; only by being clean and single-minded, so as not to make Daiyu sad and troubled...

There are dozens of them, all of which are a little bit far from Jia Baoyu.

Jia Baoyu is a solid person, but he is not a fool. He didn't understand what Lin Ruhai meant at the beginning, so he worked hard towards the goal set by Lin Ruhai. As a result, the harder he worked, the more demands Lin Ruhai made, and he gradually came to his senses. Knowing that Uncle Lin was dissatisfied with him, he intentionally raised so many demands in order to make him quit in spite of the difficulties.

However, this Jia Baoyu still has a bit of tenacity, and he still has the stubbornness and reluctance of a young man. The more critical Lin Ruhai is to him, the more he feels that Daiyu is out of reach, and the more affection he puts into it. After coming and going again and again, there are some thoughts that it must be her.

Feelings, the more you want to stop them, the more you can't stop them. For example, Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, Romeo and Juliet, if they hadn't experienced many setbacks and resistance, the relationship might not be so deep-rooted. Don't you see how many fireworks couples in the world, From the initial coincidence, it became a dream in the same bed in the end.

Lin Ruhai wanted Jia Baoyu to retreat in the face of difficulties. He had to say that he had a good idea, but the result ran counter to his goal. After all, he didn't know Jia Baoyu well enough, and he also underestimated the affection and passion of young people.

This can't be regarded as Lin Ruhai's mistake, it's just that people's hearts are unpredictable, and no one can control other people's thoughts.

Jia Baoyu has learned a lot in the past few years under the tutelage of Mr. Yao. Regardless of Lin Ruhai's many requirements, Jia Baoyu seems to be unable to meet all of them, but the difference is not far behind. Although due to his nature, his Knowledge is not outstanding, but it is also within the scope of excellence, and it can be used anywhere;

His temperament is not as stable as the one Lin Ruhai is satisfied with, but he fully accepts Lin Daiyu's petty temper. When the two of them have conflicts and quarrels, he has always been the one who coaxes Daiyu in a low-key way. In my eyes, Daiyu is good everywhere, and I never feel that she has any shortcomings;
Not to mention that the two people really share the same interests and are highly compatible in thought. These are Jia Baoyu's advantages.

But Jia Baoyu's shortcoming is that he is too naive, ignorant of world affairs, unable to take responsibility, unable to withstand wind and rain, and incapable of coping with adversity.

However, Mr. Yao had discovered this a long time ago, and he was very attentive to teaching him in this area. First, he broke his psychological comfort zone, forced him to wake him up, and made him realize his situation. His life was not what he thought it was. So stable, he can be carefree now, but someone is holding up the sky for him, but when those people who stood in front of him are gone, what should he do?
Mr. Yao told Jia Baoyu very clearly that if he couldn't stand up by himself, he would have to cling to others for the rest of his life, so don't even think about having autonomy. Only when he is strong can he control his own destiny.

Human nature seeks advantages and avoids disadvantages. The reality of Mr. Yao’s roll call is very cruel. Jia Baoyu instinctively does not want to face it, but Mr. Yao did not give him a chance to escape. If he cannot be an ostrich, he can only choose to face it. Kuchiki, after facing the reality, has grown up quickly. Although his abilities in all aspects are not enough, his mentality is already very strong.

He is learning to grow up, learning to take on his own responsibilities. This process is not beautiful, and he has survived in the end.

Jia Baoyu's growth and transformation fell into the eyes of Lin Ruhai and Jia Min. It was impossible for the two of them not to be touched, but Lin Ruhai had chosen the best candidate, and neither of them was willing to settle for second best.

Furthermore, Jia Min complained about Mrs. Wang, thinking that she was not loving enough. Looking at the life of her eldest daughter-in-law Li Wan, she did not want her daughter to marry into the Jia family. Moreover, she also realized that Mrs. Wang had some feelings for Lin Daiyu. If there is any hostility and dislike, even if it is not obvious, it really exists.

It can also be seen from Mrs. Wang's words that she has high requirements for her daughter-in-law. Neither the Lin family nor Lin Daiyu has met her standards. This matter was caused by Jia Baoyu's efforts alone. After realizing this, no matter how touched Lin Ruhai and Jia Min were, they would not choose Jia Baoyu to be their son-in-law.
