Chapter 989 New and Old

Chapter 989 New and Old

Ling Xiao still brought a few dresses. After all, no matter she or the original owner, after finding the original owner's brother, they still need to have some necessary communication. Even if they are people who like to study science, they still need certain social activities.

As social animals, human beings, unless they are completely sociophobic, more or less have to get together with other people to talk about a touch of nostalgia and new life. This is a very normal social activity.

It is natural for women to wear skirts when attending parties. This is a habit. Women at parties naturally wear dresses, but Ling Xiao feels that dresses are imported from foreign countries and there will be a certain lag when they are introduced to Kyushu.

It is possible to think of clothing as very fashionable, but in the eyes of truly fashionable people, it is completely out of date.

If you really want a dress, you'd better go to a local place and ask for it. This way it's more authentic. If it doesn't work out, you can make it yourself. Anyway, Ling Xiao has a special puppet who can make the best clothes.

Then there is only one choice for suitable attire for the party: cheongsam. In this era, most Kyushu women wear cheongsam in more formal social occasions. Bringing it from China will save money. After all, tailors in the New World may not know how to do it.

Yes, it may require more labor costs.

Therefore, Ling Xiao brought some cheongsams of the original owner's favorite colors and designs. Anyway, today's cheongsams don't put too much emphasis on curves. It doesn't matter if they are looser. Therefore, they made a certain amount of weight when making the cheongsam. This body that has just grown up is too much.

Being thin, there is still the possibility of growth.

As a person from the information age, Ling Xiao naturally likes cheongsam, but she also likes the coats, skirts and skirts of this era. However, the luggage she can bring when studying abroad is limited, so after thinking about it, she did not bring the skirts and skirts.

This is because she found that some quite radical elements were so disgusted with the decadent feudal monarchy that they went too far and looked down upon the behavior of women wearing skirts and gowns.

Skirts and gowns are actually just styles of clothing. Just because so-called progressive women mostly wear cheongsams and dresses, it is a bit excessive to think that progressive Kyushu women should wear cheongsams and dresses instead of skirts and gowns.

Ling Xiao had also heard about the origin of cheongsam (one of them, and another said that it evolved from short coats and vests): it was the awakening of some women who felt that they wanted to be like men, so they planned to wear long gowns.

In terms of clothing, they are the same as men. Women put on long gowns, which was really an improvement, and finally the cheongsam became a clothing style.

Maybe this is the reason why some people think highly of cheongsam? Ling Xiao also felt the awakening of women after knowing the origin of cheongsam. But he completely disagrees with the idea that some people look down on skirts and jackets. Isn't it just a style of clothing? As for this

The outline is online?

Ling Xiao, who came from later generations, was accustomed to the variety of clothing styles and had his own definition of clothing: the main function of clothing is to keep warm and cover the body. This is the most basic and important function. When people have more money,

Then I think about being more particular about the fabric and style of my clothes.

What style of clothing to wear depends on the occasion. As long as it is not excessive, you can choose the clothes you like: such as cheongsam, Hanfu, dress, skirt, trousers, and jacket. They are all very beautiful when worn for the appropriate occasion.

The kind of behavior that likes to tell others what kind of clothes to wear is not very pleasant. If you just say that it doesn't look good, that's it. After all, everyone has their own beauty quotient, so they will naturally have opinions and look at other people's clothes that are not pleasing to the eye.

, doesn’t like and will criticize other people’s clothing.

But what Ling Xiao doesn’t understand is: if you just don’t like it, why do you still like to label it as a remnant of feudalism? It’s really difficult to deal with people who like to occupy the moral high ground and label them. Because no matter how you look at it, it’s just a slap in the face.

Under the banner of anti-feudalism, they did more feudal things: only state officials were allowed to set fires, but the common people were not allowed to light lamps.

Who says that so-called old things must mean decay? In her opinion, old does not necessarily mean decay, and new does not mean progress.

In fact, the most expensive things in the world are often antiques. The older the antiques are, the more valuable they are. Of course, they must also have a certain degree of scarcity. Antiques are old things. Why are so many people looking for antiques everywhere?

Also, the languages ​​and characters that people use today have developed and changed little by little over many years. Are they considered old things? Who can guarantee that new things will not become old?

This idea of ​​overthrowing the old as long as it is old seems too extreme no matter how you look at it. Civilization is never achieved overnight, but changes from ignorance little by little, and new flowers often bloom in the ruins of the old.

In the end, Ling Xiao kept his thoughts about new and old derived from clothing and did not say them out in his heart. Time can prove everything. Whether certain opinions are right or wrong can only be left to future generations to comment. Now the debate is completely open to public opinion.

, my mother-in-law said she was right.

Ling Xiao, who had some ideas, decided to complete the preparatory class as soon as possible and enter a real university to study, minimizing the study time. This year would reduce the money spent and reduce the burden on the original owner's parents.

The parents of the Lin family had to spend a lot of money to support their two children to study abroad. I still remember that the original parents sold all the ancestral land in their hometown in order to support their son and daughter-in-law to study abroad together.

Fortunately, Father Lin's position was promoted later, and he also had a part-time job as a translator, so he was able to spend a sum of money for the original owner's education, and even spent the original owner's dowry money. The original owner would rather not have a dowry than go abroad to receive a higher education.

educate.

The parents of the Lin family who stayed in China were just worried about living a tight life. Even if Ling Xiao tried every means to tell them: Be kind to themselves, they would most likely forget about it.

The Lin family's parents are the kind of parents who are very good to their children. They are open-minded and listen to their children's opinions, but they are often very harsh on themselves and reluctant to part with food. Naturally, she doesn't want them to be so frugal.

If a person does not have enough food and clothing for a long time, his life span will be greatly shortened. Especially in this city full of various forces, it is necessary to maintain good physical strength. This way, parents can wait for the return of their children.

She plans to find a suitable way to make money when she gets there, and the most suitable way for nerds to make money is to get a scholarship, huh! That's it, no matter what, we must reduce their burden and make the Lin family live a better life.

This reminded Ling Xiao of something: the original owner's brother, the couple had lived abroad for three years. Brother Lin also received a certain scholarship, but he never reduced the support his parents gave him, which made Ling Xiao feel

Something is not quite right.

The original owner also felt bad. When he was talking to his mother, he made some insinuations and realized that his parents didn't take it to heart. He felt that the children would have a better life if they had more money.

She deliberately said that this was wrong, but later she learned that her parents did not dare to raise the issue of money easily because they were afraid that their children would be distracted by their own problems, and something would happen if they did not make a mistake.

The original owner went abroad to join his brother this time, so it would be easier this way. The parents were really worried about their daughter wandering around alone, so they naturally had to find a suitable place for their daughter. It would be much safer if their children were in the same place.

The original owner agreed. There was also a hidden reason. The original owner wanted to ask his brother what he really thought. Why did the couple still need the same support after receiving the scholarship?

Even if the sister-in-law would ask for more money after a period of time, the parents would still give it to her, resulting in a decrease in savings. This is why the parents had to use the dowry money from the original owner.

If the brother and sister-in-law have a child, the original owner will admit it. In fact, the couple has been abroad for several years and has not given birth to a child at all. What do they need so much money for?

Or is it inflation? There is no such thing! At this time, the lighthouse country was making a lot of money, and there was no inflation. This issue has always puzzled the original owner.

Ling Xiao took over this body and wanted to see what was going on. She knew more than the original owner. She had several guesses about the original owner's brother and sister-in-law, and was just waiting for the opportunity to find out what was going on.

.

The original owner, a little girl, actually felt a little uncomfortable because her previous brother was very good to her and his parents, but after his brother went abroad, he obviously had less contact and only communicated a few times throughout the year.

In the eyes of the little girl, a married man is like a wild horse running wild, gradually losing contact. This situation makes the little girl feel unhappy. There is only a sister-in-law in the middle, and he becomes a stranger.

Ling Xiao couldn't help but shake his head after knowing the little girl's thoughts. Even the closest people often drift away when they grow up. Even if this body is Brother Lin's biological sister, after having a wife in a man's life, he will be separated from his past relatives.

After a certain distance, the closeness gradually becomes less than before because everyone has grown up. If a man has his own family, he will gradually focus on the family.

Regarding the little girl's doubts, although Ling Xiao didn't know what was going on with their couple, he could determine three possibilities: one was that the son had lost his conscience, one was that the daughter-in-law had lost her conscience, and the third was that the couple was

None of them have any conscience.

From the parents of the original owner, it can be seen that the two of them are people with good outlook on life. It is said that their son will generally not have any problems, but it is not certain. There is also a situation in this world: the parents are good people, but the children and grandchildren are assholes.

And she decided to wait until she got to the place. Anyway, she always had to look at the situation and save what could be saved. If there was no other way, she would contact the parents of the original owner.

After writing this unit, I changed books. It’s really hard to write a story like this that brings the original owner back.
