Her name is Lin Xiaohong, she is at the bottom of the society, and she is a small employee that even the leaders can't recognize clearly.
She is not reconciled to being a "little transparent", she strives hard, refuses to "lie down", suffers ostracism and slander, but also rushes forward.
She remains optimistic and sober, seizes opportunities and does not relax, and finally achieves a win-win situation in career and love.
Lin Xiaohong, formerly known as Lin Hongyu, is the daughter of Lin Zhixiao, the housekeeper of the Jia family in "A Dream of Red Mansions". Because the name of Baoyu is duplicated by "yu", she had to change her name to Xiaohong.

Xiaohong's workplace has "unhealthy atmosphere"
Bad money drives out good money
When the young lady of Jia's mansion moved to the Grand View Garden, Xiaohong was assigned to work in Baoyu's courtyard.
The courtyard where Baoyu lives is called Yihong Courtyard.
Sister-in-law Liu, the leader of the canteen in Daguanyuan, even asked her to send her daughter to Baoyuyuan to work.
It can be seen that Yihongyuan is a "hot job".
Xiaohong is in charge of environmental sanitation in Yihong Hospital.
She has to sweep the yard, water the flowers and plants, feed the birds and complete other tasks arranged by the maid.
Who are the big maids?
Ranked according to their close relationship with Baoyu, the number one maid is Xiren, followed by Qingwen and Sheyue.
Second only to the big maid, there are Qiuwen, Bihen, Qixie, Fangguan and so on.
Among them, Xiren, Qingwen, and Sheyue served in Baoyu's bedroom, responsible for making the bed and folding the quilt, serving tea and water, dressing and other personal affairs.
There used to be Qianxue who poured tea, but she was fired because of her inappropriate behavior.
These maids serving in the "house" are far higher in salary and benefits than those in the courtyard.
Not to mention the salary.
In terms of welfare, what the master can't eat or use will be distributed to the maids around him.
Especially when encountering a young master who is so sympathetic to Baoyu, he usually calls out "Miss Sister, Miss Sister".
Exquisite snacks, milk tea... Baoyu will be left for them to eat.
In addition, what the maids value most is that they will serve the master and young master personally, and they will have the opportunity to be "aunts" in the future.
In feudal society, men were allowed to have multiple wives and concubines, and the aunt was the concubine's room, and she was regarded as half the master.
If in the future, a boy and a half girl can be born, the status and status of the aunt will become more and more precious by relying on the future of the children.
Facts have proved that it is feasible for a maid to counterattack and become an "aunt".
Aunt Zhao, Jia Zheng's youngest wife, is a clear example.
She was also a maid in the past, but because Jia Zheng took a fancy to her, she was accepted as an aunt.
She successively gave birth to a daughter, Tanchun, and a son, Jia Huan, to the Jia family.
Xiren is fighting for this goal.
In the Grand View Garden, the cognitive logic of many low-level staff is: the end of a maid is to be an aunt.
One day, Baoyu stayed in the bedroom alone, while Xiren Qingwen and other maids went out.
Baoyu wanted to drink tea and called for water.
Xiaohong observed that no one responded in the room, so she went in without haste to pour water and tea for Baoyu.
This is the first time Xiaohong served Baoyu at close range.
She answered calmly, acted skillfully, and her appearance and clothing were not vulgar or gaudy, which successfully aroused Baoyu's favor.
"Wearing a few old clothes, she has good black hair, a long face, and a slender figure, but she is very pretty and clean."
Xiaohong left a very high impression on Baoyu, so that Baoyu never forgot.
The next day, Baoyu was still thinking about promoting Xiaohong to work in the house, thinking about it for fear of "chilling people's hearts", so he gave up this idea.
It can be seen from this that Xiren is usually in Baoyu's ear, and he is often bitter and jealous to run on the newcomer.
With Xiaohong's intelligence and insight, she is definitely qualified for the post of office director of Yihong Academy, and she can do it very well.
It's just that Xiren, Qingwen, Sheyue and other maids monopolize the opportunity to serve Baoyu, and crowd out talented people, so Xiaohong has no room to play.
Xiaohong's brief "show face" this time also attracted verbal violence from her colleagues.
Qiu Wen and Bi Hen scolded her for clinging to her master, and also PUAed her: "I don't even look in the mirror, whether it's worthy of serving tea or water."
As old employees, Qiuwen and Bihen are not forgiving, and they are jealous of newcomers.
This also reflects that the workplace ecology of Yihongyuan is bad, and some maids have distorted values.
Facing the verbal abuse from her senior colleagues, Xiaohong was extremely aggrieved and could only digest it silently.
She understands that the world is going up and down, and the only thing she can do is to work hard and find another opportunity.
In fact, before the "Tea Duanmen incident", Xiaohong had already secretly promised Jia Yunfang, and had no plans to advance to the rank of aunt.
He approached the leader, but he was just a young man who wanted to show off his talents, so he was labeled as a pushover and a high-ranking person?
Some people, seeing their colleagues and leaders getting close, thought that she was going to take the position of "auntie", so they became nervous and sensitive, and even suppressed and slandered colleagues who were close to the leader, trying to monopolize favors.
Xiaohong wants to send this group of people a poem: I don't know what it's like to be a rotten rat, but I guess the meaning is still young.
The foolish villain will regard the "superior aunt" as a lifelong goal, but the smart Lin Xiaohong has already begun to pursue equal and free love.
Xiaohong in the workplace refuses to "lie down" and bravely rushes forward
At first, Xiaohong was a typical workplace "little transparent". She had been engaged in service work for many years, and Baoyu, the head of Yihong Academy, didn't know her, let alone Wang Xifeng, Mrs. Wang and other high-level leaders.
Xiaohong was not reconciled to being lazy and "lying flat", and when she saw an opportunity, she bravely rushed forward.
Since you get close to the male leader, you will be scolded for being seductive; then if you get close to the female leader, you should not be able to make irresponsible remarks.
Xiaohong adjusted the direction of her struggle and took the initiative to fight for the opportunity to perform in front of Wang Xifeng.
TV series "Dream of Red Mansions" Xiao Hong was appreciated by Wang Xifeng
One day, Wang Xifeng was walking alone in the garden, and she needed a maid to run errands to pass on a message.
Wang Xifeng waved to a group of maids, among which were civil servants, Xiang Ling, chess players, and servants.
Only Xiaohong took the initiative to run to Wang Xifeng and accepted the assignment.
Wang Xifeng didn't recognize her, and wasn't sure about her abilities.
Wang Xifeng: "My girl didn't follow in today. I just remembered something. I want to order someone out. I don't know if you can do it. Is it complete or not?"
Xiaohong: "Grandma has something to say, just tell me to say it. If you don't say it completely and miss Grandma's business, it's up to Grandma to punish you."
Xiaohong's response showed her ability, confidence and responsibility, which reassured the leaders.
Next, Xiaohong not only completed the task assigned by Wang Xifeng, but also staged a "stand-up comedy" in the process of answering the conversation.
Hongyu said: "Sister Ping said: Our grandma is greeting grandma here. It turns out that our second master is not at home. Although it is two days late, please rest assured grandma. When grandma fifth is better, our grandma will invite grandma fifth to visit grandma." Well. Grandma Fifth sent someone to say that my uncle and grandma brought a letter to say hello to grandma, and I would like to find two pills with my aunt here. If there is, grandma will send someone, just Send it to our grandma. Someone will go tomorrow, so I will take it to my uncle and grandma on the way."
He fluently expressed the "things of four or five families", which made Li Wan on the side boast: "What a quick mouth!"
Wang Xifeng immediately stated that Xiaohong would be promoted and cultivated, and at the same time frankly said: "As long as she is trained, she will be successful!".
Faced with the sudden appreciation from the leader, Xiaohong behaved calmly.
Hongyu smiled and said, "We dare not say whether we want to or not. We just follow Grandma, and we also learn how to raise and lower eyebrows, how to go in and out, and we have to see and understand big and small things."
The translation of this sentence is: It is up to the organization to decide whether it is possible to transfer and what position to transfer to.
One thing I understand in my heart, if I can work with Mr. Feng and go in and out of large and small scenes, I will definitely learn a lot of experience and knowledge.
So far, Xiaohong has successfully won the favor of Wang Xifeng, the general manager of the Jia Mansion, and has been reused.
Later, Xiaohong not only entered the rising period of her career, but also welcomed her high-quality boyfriend Jia Yun in terms of relationship.
Instead of breaking your wings and lying flat and watching, it is better to seize the opportunity and spread your wings to soar.
Lin Xiaohong, unwilling to be mediocre, not afraid of adversity, forges ahead, always maintains the enthusiasm for life, the passion for work, the true feelings for feelings, strives to develop her potential, and finally creates a happy life.
