A century of family life: Eternal life since the Republic of China

Magic City.

At this time, the magic capital is no longer the original small fishing village.

In the 25th year of Daoguang, the area north of Pidgin in Modu County was divided into foreigners' settlements, and later formed the Modu Concession. In the 28th year of Daoguang, the Hongkou area was divided into the American Concession of Shanghai.

In January of the first year of the Republic of China (1912), Songjiang Prefecture, Taicang Prefecture, and Modu were cut into 10 counties, including Huating, Jiading, Baoshan, Chuansha, Nanhui, Fengxian, Jinshan, Qingpu, and Chongming.

At this time, the demon capital is extremely prosperous, and in the following history, he will be even more prosperous.

And here, it is also the closest to the West.

Along the street are neat suits, and foreigners passing by.

The braids are almost completely gone here.

Of course, Jiang Chen didn't have braids.

Not from the beginning.

As for the reason, I'm afraid only the third uncle can answer.

And he is actually in a suit, no way, the horse coat is really not very comfortable to wear.

And his dress, coupled with his unique temperament, undoubtedly quickly integrated into the atmosphere of this magic capital.

"Young Master, let's go to dinner first!"

"I know that there is a very good western restaurant in the magic capital. "

Smith spoke with kind words, at this time his words were already Chinese, although a little lame, but it was indeed Chinese, and it was obvious that this person's language talent was also good.

"Western food?".

"Isn't there a Chinese restaurant?".

Wei Ao frowned, and Jiang Chen spoke with doubts.

"That, young master, it doesn't seem to be here!".

Smith was a little embarrassed.

When tradition is completely disrupted, the original tradition will be discarded or even become worthless.

This is also where the core of the magic capital is located.

Traditional Chinese food has almost disappeared, and only Western food remains, as if you can become a foreigner by eating the same things, using the same things, and talking about the same things.

And this situation will get worse and worse in the following time until the peak.

At that time, they wanted to abolish the Chinese language, abolish traditional Chinese medicine, abolish everything in China, and completely Westernize.

"Let's go to a western restaurant!".

"You lead the way!".

Jiang Chen sighed and spoke towards Smith.

"Good!".

Smith nodded awkwardly.

Then he took Jiang Chen to the Western restaurant he chose.

The Western restaurants of this era are naturally not as gorgeous as those of later generations.

It's just that when he walked in, Jiang Chen frowned slightly, because most of the Western restaurants were Asian faces, and there were very few foreigners.

These obviously Asian existences, all of them are straight in suits, holding upside down, and their movements are elegant and skillful.

In this regard, Jiang Chen couldn't help but shake his head.

If in his previous life, he wouldn't think it was anything, after all, Western food in his previous life was just a kind of diet, and there was no difference between Western food and Chinese food, but in this era, their choice means that they have abandoned everything originally.

And these people seem to be extremely flattering to the waiters.

The one next to it, in the middle of ordering, almost bowed completely.

Of course, at this moment, he only frowned.

Eventually, I walked in.

No way, this is the era.

"Hello sir, what do you need?".

Fluent British English came from the mouths of Asian waiters.

"Young Master, what do you want to order?"

Smith handed over the menu.

"Let's do this!".

"And this!".

Jiang Chen ordered a few at random, and Smith then spoke in English and the waiter.

"By the way, get me a pair of chopsticks!".

When the menu was ordered, Jiang Chen seemed to think of something and said casually.

For him, he is still used to using chopsticks, and even in his previous life, when he occasionally ate Western food, he used chopsticks.

It's just that his words have just come out.

Before the waiter could speak.

There was a cold snort from the side.

"This is an elegant western restaurant, and anyone can come in at any time!"

The words are flat.

It's not a taunt, but it's worse than a taunt.

That's the kind of flattering person who used to be.

"Oh, what do you mean?"

Jiang Chen turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man next to him, his words were equally calm.

"What do you mean, you know that you are not welcome in this elegant restaurant. "

The words were utterly contemptuous.

The man didn't lift his gaze.

"Hahaha, elegant, when to use a knife and fork is elegant, and chopsticks are vulgar. "

"Knives and forks also have a history of more than 3,800 years, and they were still used until the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, but they were gradually eliminated after the Warring States Period, do you know why they were eliminated?".

"Your Excellency speaks Chinese, I think Your Excellency is also Chinese, I don't know how you grew up. "

"How can I wear a suit and a broken foreign language, and I think that I have broken away from vulgarity and entered elegance. "

"It's vulgar for me to use chopsticks in Western food, so is it elegant for foreigners to trample on me in China?"

"People are more valuable than self-knowledge, and they are also more valuable than self-knowledge!".

"The suit is worn on the body, not on the heart. "

The words spoke.

And this time, in the restaurant, all eyes couldn't help but look sideways.

My heart was full of shock.

And Jiang Chen also got up immediately.

"Sorry, it doesn't seem to be the right place for me!".

Fluent spoken English.

Then Jiang Chen stopped being nostalgic and walked out of the restaurant with his steps.

"Young Master!".

Smith quickly got up as well and followed with broken Chinese.

At this moment, such a scene is particularly ironic.

It also made the person who had just been ridiculed look uncontrollably changed, a burst of blue, a burst of red, and at this time he felt a throbbing pain in his cheeks.
