207 Xiao Sheng
For wealthy people, sometimes going to work is not for how much money to make, but for the realization of self-worth.
I feel that I have a value in this world, not a rice worm who can't do anything but eat, drink, and sleep.
For a family like the Xiao family, there are naturally many partners.
It's just that the kind of people they cooperate with, today they may be good friends with you, and tomorrow they may turn their backs on you for the sake of profit.
If you become a king or lose a villain, there is nothing to complain about.
The Xiao family has gone through more than ten generations, standing for hundreds of years, and has come to the point where it is now, not only his family, but also many small families below, and the pressure is so great that it can be imagined.
After getting along with Xiao Qing for a long time, Fu Qingyao understood what was going on in the so-called high society.
When it comes to cars, people in high society don't pay attention to it.
Because they had a set of principles that followed the ancient system, according to which they believed that the history of the automobile was too short to be worthy of the ranks of classical style, and naturally not worthy of the real top-class people.
However, in such an era, you always have to have a car to drive, and on the premise that you can afford to buy any brand of car, then what you use and buy will be the cheapest and most ordinary car, which shows that you are not serious about such an easy-to-buy product, so as not to damage your class image.
In high society, they drove mostly Chevrolets, Fords, Plymouths, or Dodges, and were not picky about their models and colors. The car may be clean, although at best it is slightly dusty.
But in a word, the car must be boring.
If you drive a sister king (BMW) or BENZ. No doubt. It shows that you have no background as a nouveau riche.
After knowing this. Thinking of every car she was proud of before, Fu Qingyao really felt all kinds of shame! Only the poor will be like a peacock, constantly showing their financial strength in all aspects. And most of the real rich people have returned to their basics in terms of their attitude towards their possessions.
And this is vividly reflected in the dress.
For foreigners, purple has always belonged to the poor class.
It's a classic pauper-class costume. The absolute lowest level mark.
In fact, in foreign countries, class has always been integrated into people's lives and around people. You can even tell what class of person she is by looking at what the person next to you is wearing.
Middle- and upper-class ladies almost invariably wore gray flannel skirts, stuart plaid skirts, or khaki trousers, navy blue cardigan cardigans (sometimes cable-like pattern knits), white shirts with peter collars, and flat heels. It's best to cover your hair with a skullcap.
When the temperature is low, wear a blue shirt.
If there is business to do. Wear a grey flannel jacket instead. But no matter what kind of clothing, the ideal color is real navy blue.
It's not uncommon to see multiple layers of mixing, but low-key is a common tendency.
To sum up, upper-class girls are actually very conservative in their dressing, usually in dull colors such as black and gray, and bright clothes are usually only worn on a few occasions, such as white wedding dresses and the like. And there's one color they'll never wear, and that's purple.
They don't usually wear any jewelry, which is only worn on certain occasions, and it is basically handed down from their ancestors.
This is also the reason why Xiao Yan was so angry when she met Fu Qingyao for the first time with Xiao Qing, she actually wore a purple dress.
Usually there is a limit to how much she messes around, but now she is messing around like this, and the accumulation of things makes Xiao Yan so angry.
These upper-class people all know things in the upper class, but Fu Qingyao, a low-class commoner, doesn't understand them.
For example, they have many hobbies, go to Alaska to fish for salmon or black bass, because fishing for freshwater fish is more graded than catching saltwater fish, and the fish they catch are not common species such as ordinary crucian carp. Another example is that they all have to have dogs, there is no one in high society who does not have dogs, how can they go hunting without dogs?
As for yacht horse racing, these things are out of reach of ordinary civilians, such as a thoroughbred horse costs at least $10 million a year, and some people can't earn so much money in their lifetime.
The more she learned about their lives, the more Fu Qingyao felt like an Alice in Wonderland, and when she woke up from her dream, everything was over.
Sometimes Fu Qingyao also hopes that maybe when she wakes up, she will still return to the five-star hotel in Sichuan, instead of this ancient castle with a long history and full of luxury.
"Here you have to press a little heavier, it's an emphatic character, and there's a back, you need to practice more to be more coherent." When Fu Qingyao was telling Xiao Qing about the piano as usual, the doorbell rang.
A middle-aged man between the ages of 40 and 50 wearing a decent black uniform walked in, his face was stern and rigid, "Miss Qing, Miss Fu, the master invited the two of you downstairs for dinner, and Young Master Sheng is here." ”
"Ah, Xiao Sheng, that little guy is here!" Xiao Qing got up from her seat in surprise, "Uncle Xiao, I want to take a bath, and ask the maid to prepare a new dress for me." ”
After the housekeeper bowed and left, Xiao Qing happily pulled Fu Qingyao out of the piano room, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, Ah Sheng is so funny, you know how to do it when you see him." ”
Oh, I almost forgot that people in high society usually show respect to their guests before going out for a meal or shower.
Even if it was Xiao Sheng, a six-year-old boy, Xiao Qing gave him enough respect.
Following the customs, Fu Qingyao also took a shower and changed into another set of clothes.
She has a special room for all her clothes, and the colors are well sorted out, and there are few people who can stay in this house.
changed into a generously cut black knee-length skirt, and simply curled her hair, and when she arrived in Xiao Qing's room, she found that she was also dressed very simple and plain, thinking that she was in a hurry to see Xiao Sheng.
The two went downstairs hand in hand, the dining room was very large, with a long Western-style dining table, and a crystal bottle in the middle, which contained two blue roses cut by Xiao Qing from the back garden. The dining table is very long, basically enough for about 20 people to eat together, and it is almost impossible to see the other while sitting at one end.
When he came down, Xiao Yan was already sitting on the main seat, and a little boy was sitting in the first position on his left. About six or seven years old, looking at the pink carved jade bracelet, wearing a small black dress, the hair is not very obedient and a few sticks of hair, big brown eyes, blinking at Xiao Qing who came over.
When his gaze turned to Fu Qingyao, he was confused.
Very cute child, the genes of the parents should not be much worse. Look at the appearance of this child, when he grows up, he is afraid that he will also be a handsome guy who harms girls.
"Ah Sheng." Seeing him, Xiao Qing staggered over and hugged the little person on the chair at once, "Why are you here, my sister-in-law misses you so much!" ”
Being treated like this by Xiao Qing, Xiao Sheng's appearance of pretending to be old with a straight face suddenly broke his work, his eyes showed a little joy, and before he could say anything, his round cheeks were pulled away by the bow left and right.
Pinched it hard, Xiao Qing sighed: "Sure enough, it's still a familiar touch, it's so comfortable, it's so cute." (To be continued......)
