How to pretend to live in Shanghai?

Unlike Beipiao, people living in Shanghai rarely show their lives in a big way.

I mean everyday life.

I live in Beipiao, Tongzhou, which is as big as a sandstorm and as small as the first pancake fruit I ate in the morning. He is willing to post it on social media, showing that he shares the same fate with Beijing. No matter how miserable and happy he is, this is the Beijing where he lives. He will scold him if the subway is crowded, and he will also scold him if there is traffic jam on the Third Ring Road. The child can't go to school, and the husband fails to start a business. This fucking place swore to complain 10 thousand times, waiting for the blue sky tomorrow.

It seems that he has no intention of moving anywhere. Even if he can't afford to buy a house and shake the car number all his life, he is a serious Beijinger. He can't go back to Tieling or Anqing. Even if the house was bought in Yanjiao, it is still a copper pea in Beijing.

Shanghai rarely gives people this sense of belonging. Open a circle of friends on weekends. Only public relations people who seriously go out for brunch with online celebrities will send a photo of all handsome men and women, a pot of grass in front of a person, or a popular Shufulei dessert.

Too ritualized, too pretentious, even the fritters eat a big cake, which comes from the small fresh school in Taoyuan or the old Shanghai school in the healthy night market. As long as you buy a white steamed bun at the steamed bun shop in front of your house and put it in your mouth, you will inevitably feel a surge. I don't belong in this city.

Foreigners who rent houses in the North Fifth Ring Road will tell you about Beijing. Foreigners who can buy a house in Shanghai are most concerned about when to return to their hometown. Maybe they can change the city. Actually, Beijing is better.

A Tianjin girlfriend rents a house on Yuyuan Road, with a monthly rent of about 10,000 yuan, but she is not at home most of the month. She obviously lives in the center of Shanghai, and there are more foreigners sitting in the cafe downstairs than in China. Local colleagues all live in the urban-rural fringe of Xinzhuang, Jiading. Yi never felt that she lived in Shanghai. One of the main reasons why men in Shanghai can't.

She still likes men in Beijing, whether they are from Inner Mongolia or Southwest China. Anyone who has infiltrated Beijing can seamlessly connect with a unique Beijing-style humor. That kind of self-mockery with a little laziness and helplessness is as comfortable as sitting on an old sofa at home. Shanghai men will pull the door for her and help her carry shopping bags. This is good, but it seems like drinking an expensive cup of bitter coffee, lacking that kind of heartfelt smile.

Shanghai humor refers to the coffee farce school, which is vulgar and inferior, hahaha. The better the economic conditions of Shanghainese, the less developed the smiling muscles are. When they live in a house of1000000, their face is a face of mortgage1000000, and they are unhappy.

How should a foreigner pretend to live in Shanghai?

Many years ago, I traveled abroad and sat on a bus. The driver asked me where I was from, and I told him that it would be Shanghai later. The driver looked obviously incredulous, to the effect that little girl, don't lie to me, thinking that I have never seen a Shanghainese?

A rude Shanghainese, especially a woman, had better not admit that she is from Shanghai. At that time, the weight 140 kg was really far from the standard Shanghai women. How can I be a Shanghai woman with tea residue and acne spots all over her face?

So I honestly changed my mind, and it was from Jiangsu. The driver just nodded and admitted. The same thing happened when I was wandering in Beijing a few years ago. No one has ever guessed that you are from Shanghai, have you? See a big shot and guess the three northeastern provinces directly. Who told you to be rough?

What is a Shanghai woman?

Is your hair done? Have you manicured your nails and toenails? Did you spend all your money?

No, no, no, I don't mean the kind of red-faced girl that is common in your circle of friends. That's a bit too fake, as if every penny she spends on her face is heard by hitting the floor. Shanghai Xiaonan doesn't play hyaluronic acid, because the first batch of beauty editors who play hyaluronic acid wildly have successfully grown fake faces, which is really cheap.

The birth of a native Shanghainese has nothing to do with the place where he was born. The key is whether you are willing to spend money on delicate and useless things.

It's not unusual to go to online celebrity restaurants. It's for the vanity of friends. This is a fresh one. If you want to be a Shanghainese, you must have a small restaurant that you often go to on weekends. You have a little friendship from the boss to the chef, saying that the gluten pot is a little salty today, and people will specially send a shepherd's purse and tofu soup, apologizing and saying, sorry, my apprentice is a little heavy. Or go to the Peninsula Hotel for brunch. Some people are really petty bourgeoisie, and they will come every week slowly.

Many things are only eaten once, bought once and visited once. Typical country people watch a peep show. Always buy and visit, eat the doorway and taste, spend the money properly, like red wine and coffee, and name more than ten kinds of flowers and fruits, which makes people respect. Isn't it a foreign dish?

If you want to be an authentic drifting north, you have to suffer a lot. If you want to be a real Shanghainese, you have to spend a lot of money.

This is why many drifters in Shanghai work hard in their lives and don't care about the world.

Even if you buy a house in a place like Gucun Baoshan, it's not Shanghai, it's called the outer suburbs. After dinner in the city at nine o'clock, you start to worry about when the last subway is. This eagerness for success will only make people firm. I make money in Shanghai and leave this place when I have earned enough.

Two famous female writers, Su Qing, Zhang Ailing and Su Qing, wrote Ten Years of Marriage, which was more lively than Zhang Ailing at that time. When she opened the novel, all the noise was on the paper. Zhang Ma said, Mary said, Wang Ma said, what does her husband think and what does she think? After seeing chicken feathers all over the floor and spilling them all over the floor, she breathed a sigh of relief. It was not easy. Although the days are sad, writing on paper seems to have magical power to smooth the folds of life. Seeing others suffer, it seems that they are suffering, and they are not so bitter.

The problem is that this bitterness always reminds people of Su Qing's life experience. She is from Ningbo, Zhejiang, and a countryman. She can't help paying attention to practicality. Even the novels are full of pragmatism, which ordinary citizens like, but they are too enthusiastic and petty.

Although Zhang Ailing's novels are always short of parents, they are all different in the end, with more blanks and more sighs. The characters in the novel either smoke silently or remain silent for a long time. I ordered a plate of mosquito-repellent incense in the dark. Grandpa Kuang lamented that he didn't eat a good bowl of lotus seed tea this year, and the money was gone. The solemn and exquisite regret is still there. I want to live a down-to-earth life, but after all, my ancestors were too rich and too lost, and people knew a truth at an early age, and life would be over, so why haggle over every ounce?

Zhang Ailing became a leading figure in Shanghai's literary world because she was useless. In order to taste the delicious food, she bought it at the West Point House and praised it. If it's not delicious, she found the reason, whether it's the chef's ancestral home or the flour texture. Su Qing is like this. When buying snacks, we must first consider face and who to entertain. Why is it inconvenient for Wang Ma to go to Nanjing West Road at home?

Country people worry about 1800 things when they go to town, and they are afraid of being rejected by others everywhere.

If you want to pretend to live in Shanghai, the first thing is not to be afraid. You should take everything for granted. Only tourists will be shocked. God, the subway in Shanghai is so crowded that authentic Shanghainese don't even look up: of course the subway is crowded. London, new york and Paris, where the subway is not crowded?

Look down on you vaguely. You have never seen the world. To put it bluntly, you haven't spent enough money.

Or, after all, you are poor. Don't care how to live in poverty with money. But how many people in China have never been poor all their lives?

So it's really hard to pretend to be a Shanghainese. Those who look the most foreign in Shanghai, more than three generations, always have personal names that can be easily searched by Baidu. He laughs when others mention it. That was a thing of the past.

Because all the food, clothing and use fell on me. Although I am not as rich as I used to be, I am dumbfounded by my occasional extravagance. How much does this stuff cost?

Su Qinghua's every penny is forced by life. After saving face, she will take care of the lining. Zhang Ailing took the payment and sent it to Hu Lancheng. She does, even if she knows he doesn't love her, so what?

It's really exquisite to pay attention to it. If you don't pay attention, the days will pass in a blur. No matter what you think, I am very happy.

Practical, affordable, hard to buy. I am very happy. This is the whole spirit of living in Shanghai.

Songjiang people, who have been farming for three generations, certainly can't understand this meaning, so they went to Shanghai for more than half a century, or said: Go to Shanghai.

This is a bustling place, which has nothing to do with us.

If you pretend to live in Shanghai?

Don't marry early and have children like rural people, and don't be diligent like migrant workers. You are lazy and pleasure-seeking. You never quote the prices of all kinds of goods. You live to come to this world and enjoy the beautiful things, the wisdom of human beings and the progress of science and technology.

Congratulations, you have become a part of what we rural people expect.
