Chapter 51: Where did the high society come from?

The big families are very rotten, the feudal dregs are all there, how rotten the European aristocratic traditions are, how degenerate the big families in the East are. The surface is glamorous, it is a besieged city, only a wall is seen, and there are many things in it.

Fighting for a house inheritance and supporting an elderly person can wipe out the blood relationship, and there are more interests in the big family, and there is a set of strict rules and inheritance.

It's not an actor or a killer, it doesn't matter if it's a Western aristocratic circle, or a big family in the East, you can't mix it up.

I only know that the West drinks red wine, and I don't know that the aristocracy only drinks the bars they bring, for fear of poisoning, why do Western dishes use silver tableware, fashionable, elegant, and tall?

The Song Dynasty restaurant used gold tableware, ordered to send you home, the citizen class used gold tableware to eat at home, playing luxury goods China is the ancestor, eating also rules, killing people will drop the cup, open the chop, do not poison you.

Once traditional Chinese men become traditional, they scare their female compatriots to death, and they still yearn for the life of European aristocracy, have you seen how corrupt and depraved the scene is, the queen's husband and lover are a lot, Mountbatten is a handsome mess and still plays with his wife, wearing some luxury, wearing clothes, making a cold meal, drinking red wine, and calling it high society? Don't be funny, it's the old peasant who wants the emperor's golden hoe again. Receptions at embassies and consulates, dinners at the White House, gatherings of celebrities in Europe, and high-class gatherings in various media, all of which are played by people who worship this set.

I don't know how the word high society came out, there is nothing more funny than this word, even Potzl, who coined the term WASP in 1964, used to describe the white Anglo-Saxon Protestants, the title of the book is also "The Protestant Authorities: The Aristocracy and Social Hierarchy in the United States", it is aristocracy and social hierarchy, the West has an upper class, it has the lower class and the lower group, the class is hierarchical, what is not clear, The mainstream society is the majority of the social culture, and the others are subcultures, where does the upper class come from? So where is the lower class?

A woman has a talent for being very alert and easy to detect who looks down on her, very fragile, yearning for beauty in her heart but always being fooled by her senses. The upper class society is so fooling the world, it is not society, it is a word, the word is like a peaceful lake, but it can reflect the bottom of people's hearts!

A person is dressed beautifully, can drink foreign wine, participates in a party called a high society party, and when he goes out to jewelry, he takes off a rented dress, and he is not a person in high society? Aren't the middle class middle class in their own cabins, toilets, or jobs? The queen doesn't wear a crown, isn't she still called the queen? The buddy who made this word probably wants to be silent, the sarcasm is too good, and some people take it seriously.

There are many old and beautiful gatherings, born and buried, marriage and divorce in the middle, cherries, bucks, pears, birthdays, welcomes, farewells, picnics and fishing, warm houses, car tails and so on, charity fundraising banquets are endless all year round, where to find the upper class? Also the Western aristocracy? The aristocracy had nothing to do with high society.

Old Europe has an aristocratic tradition, yearning for the new wealth of the aristocracy and the desire of all classes to lean upward, which has produced a group of people who are eager to stick up, this group of people is characterized by the snobbery described by the Western aristocracy, these people get together, called the upper class? Is the word Genteel used to describe the upbringing and elegant, but also high society?

It's not superior, it's a euphemism, it's like respect, everybody wants to be respected, the key is, how much respect? Just like taste, what is taste, to say vulgar is different.

In the eighties, horticulture flourished in the United States, and elite universities were still elite universities, and after a thousand years, horticulture was flooded, and elite universities were also flooded. Japan's post-war economic miracle, women mention LV called taste, and little girls can help with communication for a bag. Later, luxury goods were overflowing, and a little girl on the street carried LV, so it was very sad that the few people who could mention LV were very sad.

This scene also appeared in China in later generations, and even Apple became an arcade machine, what should I do? The local tyrant gold is a small difference, it is the same, it is not different, the Haitian feast has come out, this is called different, this is called high society?

If you get used to it, it's ordinary, only Panpan can stay in my heart for the Asian Games, and if I hold the Asian Games in the future, no matter how many gold medals there are, no one cares. As soon as the Beijing Olympics are held, the Olympics will be like that in the future. The opening of an iron factory in the late Qing Dynasty was concerned by the whole country, and the industrial world was the first in the later generations, and everyone took it for granted.

In the nineteenth century, Thackeray wrote "Vanity Fair", which is to describe the absurd and extravagant scene of the British party dinner, the dinner party in Europe and the United States is a social occasion, a vanity fair, a mask ball, and it is ordinary to get used to it, for those who are in it, it is a social, tiring, and high society?

White House dinner, the prince's wedding, inviting the media, that is called the Royal Open Day, and the aircraft carrier is parked in the harbor for the people to go up to see the results of their tax payments, only after the constitutional monarchy, the king is a mascot, the royal family has to apply to the parliament for food money, you have to let people see their private life, you can't hide it, otherwise there is no money to buy meat buns to eat, there was no such thing before.

What is the old European aristocracy, it is a stallion, it is blood-related, not hereditary, and definitely not an aristocracy. Like the feudal system of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period in China, it is all hereditary, and like the Japanese daimyo before the Edo period, even the retainers are called heavy ministers only after the genealogy, and there is no blood, and the old prince can't be relied on. The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period is a case of civil rebellion, and there is no such thing as a civil rebellion, and the Japanese Warring States period is chaotic, giving a few grassroots careerists a little loophole, and several generations slowly change their names and genealogies, and the emperor can also become a daimyo if he buys a rank, but that is also very rare, Toyotomi Hideyoshi is the only one in the world who has become a person in one generation, and others don't say a daimyo, and it will be difficult for you to die if you are a samurai.

The old Europe can be mixed with knights is also a scarce animal, that has to fight until the soldiers are not enough to seal, there is no such good thing in peacetime, and most of the knights are not hereditary, knights who cannot be hereditary, not nobles. The British tabloids are developed, and the aristocratic system of later generations is based on the propaganda after the British constitutional monarchy, and the gang of people in Hong Kong are called knights, lords, in fact, they have nothing to do with the title, multiple SIRs, multiple DEMA in front of women, meritorious people in the civilian class, multiple certificates, multiple medals, and many decorations, which cannot be hereditary, not nobles. There are also medals for war, the Iron Cross, Hitler was a nobleman? Sir Hitler? Your Excellency Lord Adolf? It sounds funny, but it has nothing to do with the aristocracy, the Chinese Spring and Autumn period can be hereditary, that is the nobility.

The British aristocracy is plus LORD, Chinese is still called a lord, hereditary baron and above, and later joined a lifelong baron, a quasi-baron, honorary nature, not hereditary, but there is also a LORD in front. WHY ADD LORD, BECAUSE THE BRITISH ARISTOCRATIC SYSTEM CHANGED AFTER THE CONSTITUTIONAL MONARCHY, THE KING WAS KILLED, CROMWELL RECTIFIED THE FLAG AFFAIRS, THERE WERE FEWER NOBLES, AND THERE WERE MORE HONORS, LADY WAS ORIGINALLY ONLY AVAILABLE TO NOBLE DAUGHTERS, THE ELDEST DAUGHTER ADDED A SURNAME, AND OTHER DAUGHTERS ADDED NAMES, AND LATER IT WAS A LADY, WHICH IS NOT THE SAME THING AS THE OLD EUROPEAN ARISTOCRATIC SYSTEM.

The old European aristocracy was all hereditary, not honorable, and directly added to the name. FOR EXAMPLE, THE FRENCH GUY DE DE, THE PAN-ITALIAN NOBILITY AFTER THE PRISONER OF AVIGNON WAS ALSO CHANGED TO GAD, THE MEDICI FAMILY IS, HOLY ROMAN PLUS VON, THE LOW COUNTRIES PLUS VAN, THE FIRST GENERAL STAFF SYSTEM OF THE PRUSSIAN OFFICER CORPS IS ALL VON, THE FIRST CAPITALIST COUNTRY IN THE NETHERLANDS PARLIAMENT IS ALL VAN, THE FIRST REVOLUTION OF THE FRENCH GUILLOTINE IS ALL DE, THE POPE WILL GIVE THE TITLE, LOUIS XVIII, CHARLIE XXVII AND THE LIKE, THE AMERICANS ARE ADDED BY THEMSELVES.

Once the two nobles marry, this is another middle word, which is also directly added to the name, the name is hereditary, the name of the child or the name is added, the elder Bush's father married Bush Jr.'s grandmother did just that, Bush Jr.'s grandmother is the East Coast surname, and his father is a banker. The reason why his family is called the Bush family is not because of Bush, but because of the W in the name, Walker, which is why it is called the Bush family on the east coast.

The east and west coasts of the United States are different, the west coast is a little freer, there are many feudal remnants of the old thirteen colonies on the east coast, those who pay attention to famous surnames, the genealogy of the big apple sellers, reference books, and the subjects that must be practiced in the social field are to memorize the family tree, whose ancestors planted cotton, who did what, there is a pedigree, many ancestors have participated in the continental conference, American clans, a group of local old hats and nobles.

The same problem is with the gang of local tycoons in the Middle East, tribal nobles marry once add a tribal name and surname, plus a religious name, all plus the name, the Chinese are blinded when they hear it, similar to the name of the dish reported by crosstalk, but you still have to remember that this gang of second goods does not issue business cards, even the name is not reported by themselves, the attendants around them roll call, the name is the business card of this gang of two goods. The status sect and the maiden tribe are all in it, and it is easy to make taboos if you can't remember it, and if you remember it, you will be happy and give you a bird to play.

The world of the aristocracy is closed, not open to the people, all classes cannot be relied on, it turns out that there is not even a chance to self-proclaim the upper class, the people and nobles are still there, and there is no constitutional monarchy.

The originator of the Western gathering in later generations was Louis XIV, the friend of women, the inventor of high heels, the sun of France in the seventeenth century, to engage in centralization, large-scale removal of the actual local rule of the aristocracy, for this purpose, the thirteenth hunting villa was expanded into Versailles, the local aristocracy turned into court officials, and the all-night ball banquet and various celebrations were held, which was a bit similar to Tokugawa Ieyasu in the East, and it was also the daimyo feudal lord who was turned into a circle in Edo.

One of these two goods subverted the French aristocratic system, and the other subverted the Japanese samurai system, both of which planted the seeds of grave-digging when they were seeking extreme prosperity, and there were no noble lords and samurai lords in the local area.
