Chapter 70 Women's clothing is a cultural heritage

Early the next morning, Zhou Yi's cell phone rang.

"Hey, Zhou Yi, I want to tell you good news." Sun Qingtong was very happy in the phone call.

“What good news?”

"Grandpa is out on a trip, and it is said that he is taking a field trip with a few old friends. Now the key to Orson Villa is in my hands. Do you want to stay here together for a while? It's quite boring for me to live alone."

Go to Villa Orson?

Zhou Yi was moved.

You know, he has never lived in a villa before growing up.

Zhou Yi would not be polite to Sun Qingtong. Being polite means being separated and not beautiful.

"Are we? Are we with Lou Xiaoxiao?" Zhou Yi confirmed.

"Of course, I'm not relieved if you come alone!"

"Then I will discuss it with Xiaoxiao, it shouldn't be a big problem!"

"Well, then I'll pick you up now and see you later."

"Go, why don't you take advantage of it?" Lou Xiaoxiao's answer did not exceed Zhou Yi's expectations: "Aoson Villa, a top-notch family, a villa in the park, I have always wanted to experience it!"

So the two of them packed their own luggage, which was not far away anyway, so they could come back to get it at any time.

The BMW drove all the way into Olympick Forest Park, walked along a quiet and uninhabited road, and finally stopped in front of the villa.

Only then did Zhou Yi see that in addition to the garden with a front door of more than 100 square meters, there is also a garden outside the back door. The fence outside the garden is next to the river, and the villa is connected by a small arch bridge, artificially creating a feeling of a water city and water town.

"It's really worthy of being a villa in the park. This air is simply the best place in the entire imperial capital!" Lou Xiaoxiao quickly took out her phone and started looking for an angle to take a selfie: "I feel that living here can live at least ten more years!"

"There are three floors here, the basement is a storage room and a miniature cinema, with a total of nine bedrooms. Except for my and my grandfather's room, you can choose any other!" Sun Qingtong and the two visited the entire villa.

"When my grandfather was there, there was also an Aunt Liu who was responsible for taking care of her daily life. During this period, I gave her a vacation. I have to leave the meal at home to you, Chef Zhou!" Sun Qingtong brought Zhou Yi to the kitchen.

"I said why did you invite me so kindly? It turned out that I wanted to eat the food I made!" Zhou Yi walked into the kitchen. It was comparable to the hotel. The area was larger than the rooms he and Lou Xiaoxiao rented. There were all kinds of Eastern and Western tableware, including oven and steamer, and it was really complete.

Lou Xiaoxiao looked around and finally chose a room on the second floor of the main entrance. Through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, you can directly see the colorful garden under your feet. This room is more than 30 square meters, and there is also a separate cloakroom and bathroom. It must be very comfortable to live in.

Zhou Yi chose a room on the third floor, and there was a wooden staircase leading to the small attic. The lighting was very good. What was even more slim is that the bathroom was decorated very luxuriously, and the bathtub was very large, enough to accommodate three people to wash at the same time.

There are rows of bookshelves on one wall on one side of the room. Unfortunately, there are not many books inside. There is a computer next to the bookshelf. It is obviously quite new and the screen is huge.

"My dad likes to stay here. The computer was the first to be matched today, and it is also the best one." Sun Qingtong sighed: "But he opens it occasionally, and he also fights with others online, and keeps playing until he loses the free happy beans."

"Top match, it's great!" Zhou Yi rubbed his hands happily: "I'll go and eat chicken first."

After a simple settlement, the three of them came to the small balcony on the third floor together. Sitting on a comfortable chair, looking at the quiet and natural scenery around them, they naturally felt relaxed and happy.

"I think you don't seem to be under pressure at all, and your heart is really big." Sun Qingtong looked at Zhou Yi with some emotion.

"Why do I have to be under pressure?" Zhou Yi was confused.

"It's about women's clothing! The public opinion in the public is not that open yet, right? There will definitely be a lot of vicious comments and words at that time, but you don't seem to care." Sun Qingtong was very curious about this. You must know that she chose not to accept any reporter interviews in order to protect Zhou Yi, but she didn't expect that Zhou Yi would be like nothing.

"A person who is afraid is not strong enough in his heart." Zhou Yi raised his legs and put on the most comfortable sitting position, but his eyes looked straight into the distance: "What's wrong with women's clothing? The ancestors of hundreds of years ago began to do this, and it's still a cultural heritage!"

"One of the consequences of long-term economic prosperity is that the social atmosphere is becoming increasingly luxurious. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, a trend of feminine male clothing appeared. The first step was that the rich young masters wore red and purple clothes. "At the end of Jiajing, even in the prosperous years, there were 10,000 dynasties... the rich young masters wore female makeup in a large number of women's makeup'."

"At the second step, ordinary young people also began to wear women's clothing. During the Wanli period, men in Zhejiang Province all liked to wear silk crepes and huluo, and dyed a large number of women's colors.' "All students in the southeastern counties and those who are strong in the school of study are all red and purple clothes for women," and "the young men regard red and purple as their strange clothes."

"In "Miscellaneous Notes on Seeing and Experience" written by Li Le in the Ming Dynasty, it is said that when he was an official in Huzhou, Zhejiang, many students had to apply rouge on their mouths, foundation on their faces, and "towed their hair with red silk", and tied their long hair with red scarves. Coupled with the flowery clothes mentioned above, they were basically dressed up by girls. These people were neither street prodigals nor idle young men, but students preparing for the imperial examinations were dressed like this. Li Le wrote a lilac poem with emotion: "I came to the city yesterday and returned with tears in my heart. The women's clothes were all scholars."

"Not only men wear women's clothing, but women have also become popular in men's clothing, and they have also been wearing Taoist robes. In short, they have been completely mixed up. An Anhui literati Xiao Yong sighed in his book "Chimang Meeting": 'Women wear men's crowns, men wear women's skirts, and the yin and yang are reversed, which is very ominous!'"

"The next step is that not only young men, but also those old men in their forties and fifties who should have been serious, have become fancy. In the end, the most serious and rigid national officials have to change into bright and bright clothes when they go to work and return home. The most famous of them is Zhang Juzheng, the chief minister of the cabinet. He is extremely particular about dressing. He likes to embroider colorful patterns with pure white silk as the base, "ice silk and shiny... delicious, scented, scented, and scented, and early and evening. He has to change his clothes for a meal. The clothes he wears in the morning, morning, afternoon, and evening are different. Not only are the clothes worn brightly and dazzling, but he also needs to apply balm on his body - there was no perfume at that time, and applying balm could achieve the same effect as perfume - this is the prime minister of the empire!"

"The glitz of a society, from the perspective of dress, can be roughly divided into several stages. The first stage is that everyone is very poor and does not pay attention to dressing; the second stage is that women from wealthy families begin to dress up in a colorful manner; the third stage is that girls from ordinary families are also dressed in a colorful manner; the fourth stage is that young men from wealthy families begin to dress up in a colorful manner; the fifth stage is that boys from ordinary families are also dressed in a colorful manner; the last stage is that old men, senior officials, etc. should be the most rigid and serious people, and they are also dressed in a colorful manner."

"After a period of peace and prosperity for two hundred years, the late Ming Dynasty had developed to the sixth stage and the highest stage. my country was the first stage before the reform and opening up, and the second to third stages after the opening up; now it is in a period of excessive transition from the third stage to the fourth stage: many boys began to like to learn to dress up like girls, and the word "little fresh meat" began to become popular, but the trend has not yet been formed."

"British and Japan are basically in the fifth stage, and young men dress up in a charming fashion; some Commonwealth countries and Nordic countries have long been peaceful and stable, from high-ranking officials to the people, they are idle every day and have nothing to do, and have entered the final stage. Senior national officials are also full of homosexuality, strange costume enthusiasts, young handsome and rich young and handsome guys, etc. The political circle is almost catching up with the entertainment circle, which is even worse than the late Ming Dynasty."

"Damn it, I admire it! I admire it! I bowed my head to the women's clothing boss!" Zhou Yi's talk was completely blinded by Sun Qingtong and Lou Xiaoxiao. It sounded like telling a story, but it still quoted classics and sets of theories.
