The ages of the above main characters are clearly stated in the book, and in order to avoid lengthy articles, the estimation process is omitted. Among them, the ages of Jia Mu and Yuan Chun have been debated because of inconsistencies in the book. As for the characters who are not clearly explained in other books, it can be roughly inferred that: Yingchun is bigger than Baoyu; Daiyu is bigger than Tanchun, Baoqin, and Xiangyun; Sister Feng is older than Qin Keqing; Li Kun is older than Sister Feng.

From these analyses, it can be seen that in addition to the controversial Yuan Chun, Li Kun, the eldest of the twelve hairpins, should not be more than twenty-five years old when he first appears, while Daiyu is only six years old
