Molan is Minglan's second elder sister among the daughters. She is Lin Xiaoniang's daughter. She always compares herself with Minglan and tries to win in everything.
There are two main reasons. First, she grows up with her mother's influence. Her mother teaches her to fight for everything by any means. She thinks she is more beautiful and smarter than Minglan, so she should have a better life. Second, she is very jealous deep inside. She is also a concubine's daughter, but Minglan gets more care from Grandma Sheng and wins more respect from others. She cannot accept that Minglan lives a better life than her.
This kind of comparison makes Molan tired and unhappy all her life. It also leads her to make many wrong choices.
📖 参考译文 听完后核对,加深理解
墨兰是明兰的二姐。她是林小娘的女儿。她总爱跟明兰比,什么都想赢。
主要有两个原因。第一,她从小受母亲的影响。母亲教她要不择手段去争去抢。她觉得自己比明兰漂亮、比明兰聪明,就该过得比明兰好。第二,她骨子里非常嫉妒。她也是庶女,可明兰得到了盛老太太更多的疼爱,也赢得了更多人的尊重。她接受不了明兰过得比她好。
这种攀比,让墨兰一辈子都活得又累又不开心。也害她做出了很多错误的选择。
