However, this wait lasted for half an hour. Finally, ye Caixin, wearing a loose red cotton dress, sat in the right seat.
"So you've come. Let's have dinner." Ye Caixin said coldly.
"OK, ma..."
Now you can eat it. You know, Chang Xiadu had been waiting for half an hour, and he was already hungry. He was so excited that he was ready to eat.
Here in the Qi family, they use knives and forks more than chopsticks. Fortunately, they used to go out to eat Western food with their parents before Changxia, and they used knives and forks fluently.
Fork a piece of foie gras is in the entrance of the fortress, but next to the forest housekeeper suddenly dry cough, this sound can't help but let Chang Xia Leng.
Then Yang head to see, Chang Xia is found a clue, ye Caixin that pair of venomous eyes are staring at himself, shining, as if to find fault with their own.
Chang Xia didn't know what she had done wrong, so she said with a bitter smile, "what's the matter, mom?"
"Is that how you usually eat?"
Isn't that how you eat? Chang Xia didn't understand what she meant, and then she thought about it again. Chang Xia still didn't feel that she had done something wrong.
"Mom, that's how I usually eat."
"It's really a child without a tutor. When eating, the elder should eat first, and then the younger can use it. I haven't moved my knife and fork. How can you use it?"
When she says that, Chang Xia thinks she's innocent. It's clearly what she let herself eat. Now she says she's impolite and has no tutor. If she can't help it, Chang Xia really wants to lift the table.
But Chang Xia still repressed, pretended to be honest, nodded and said: "I'm sorry, mom, I'm wrong."
"Hum, it's good to know the mistake. You can't move until I move the knife and fork first. This is the rule. If Qian Er's father is here, I'll wait for him to eat first, and I'll follow him."
Listen to Ye Caixin's words, Chang Xia just nods. Anyway, she just remembers what the other party says. But she didn't expect that there are so many rules in the Qi family, and she pays attention to seniority when eating.
In fact, in ancient times, there was also the order that the people with higher power should eat first and the elderly should use first. However, in modern society, these hierarchical systems are gradually weakening, especially in families.
Like today's open-minded family, which can be so traditional, everyone happily sitting around, eat as you like, Chang Xia family is like this.
But since this is the Qi family, Chang Xia still has to follow the rules honestly.
When he saw that ye Caixin had already begun to eat, Chang Xia immediately took a piece of German black bread in his hand and put it into his mouth without much intervention. The softness and fragrance of the bread burst out like jam in his tongue buds, and he had endless aftertaste.
After eating a piece of German black bread, Chang Xia took some French long bread and dipped it in caviar. Before, she often saw rich people eating it like this in TV dramas. A mouthful of caviar with golden toast was called enjoyment. But when she ate it, Lin Guanjia coughed again.
Just like conditioned reflex, hearing his cough, Chang Xia immediately looks in the direction of Ye Caixin. Sure enough, she finds that she is staring at herself, cold and discontented. God knows what Chang Xia has done wrong, so she honestly puts down her knife and fork and asks obediently“ Mom... Did I do something wrong? "
"You know your problem, don't you?"
"I... I don't know." If Chang Xia knows, it's her turn to pick her own mistakes. It's because she doesn't know that Chang Xia is so frightened.
Ye Caixin shook his head regretfully, showing a disappointed expression: "I say you, how can there be so many problems, even the basic etiquette are not clear, you see your eating, which is like an educated woman."
Chang Xia really wants to refute this. At least she is an undergraduate who graduated from university. How can she be uneducated. If you want to say who has no education, it must be ye Caixin, pointing at others and commenting. This is impolite.
After all, Chang Xia is still a daughter-in-law. It's impossible to bump into her mother-in-law with her tone. She bowed her head and said quietly, "Mom, I don't know where I can't do well?"
Seeing that Chang Xia's attitude was fairly good, ye Caixin hummed coldly. Instead of continuing to scold, he said, "when you eat, you should pay attention to dignity and elegance. You have to learn from me."
After that, she demonstrated to Chang Xia once. She took a knife and fork to cut the egg sausage piece by piece, then opened her mouth and slowly put it in. It looked elegant, but it was more artificial.
Rich people are popular. They don't eat for their stomachs, but for a quality of life.
In the following breakfast time, Chang Xia learns from her mother-in-law Ye Caixin and eats it slowly. This meal is absolutely impressive. Usually, she can finish it in about ten minutes with breakfast, but it takes a full hour to eat with Ye Caixin.
This society stresses efficiency. If everyone eats breakfast like this, it is estimated that 20 hours a day will soon be used up.
After breakfast, Chang Xia wanted to have a rest, but soon she gave Ye Caixin a lesson. It is said that this lesson is the first one of "etiquette and cultural literacy" to enter the upper class.
According to her mother-in-law's instructions, Chang Xia's walking posture is not dignified and generous, and her face smile is not sweet enough, so she has to accept formal training. In this way, the future with Qi Qian to go out to receive people of the same class in order to appear to be from a famous family. Chang Xia, who considers herself unlucky, tolerates it and follows housekeeper Lin to her first class. The teacher in class was a middle-aged woman with a sallow face, wearing a black skirt uniform and a stern face. First, the teacher gave Chang Xia a half-hour theory lesson, which was nothing more than raising her head and holding her chest and drawing her waist to breathe in. Then she asked Chang Xia to practice walking and smiling with a book on her head and a piece of her mouth. This kind of practice is OK if we hold on for a few minutes, but if we hold on for half an hour or even an hour, I'm afraid the robots will break up, right? After Chang Xia's practice, the whole person is lying on the ground in big characters. But housekeeper Lin is not so polite. Under the command of Ye Caixin, he takes strict care of Chang Xia. Before Chang Xia has enough rest, he reports without expression: "young lady, I need to take piano lessons next."“ Let me have a rest. My feet are tired Standing for an hour, I'm not tired. Chang Xia used to sit all day when he was working in the company. He never tried to stand for an hour. But housekeeper Kelin didn't show any respect and continued to report coldly and mechanically: "young lady, time is precious. If you don't comply, I'm afraid the old lady will scold you."
