Chapter 396 It takes three generations to cultivate aristocrats
But in the past two years, An Yunze's childishness has gradually faded away, and he has begun to possess some of the noble airs of a rich young man.
People often say that it takes three generations to cultivate a nobleman.
This is not something I say casually.
A true nobility not only needs the accumulation of material wealth, but also the inheritance of spiritual cultivation and moral qualities.
This kind of inheritance usually requires the joint efforts and influence of three generations.
In history, Cao Cao hired a famous teacher for Cao Zhi, with the best resources and the best teacher, but he still failed to cultivate Cao Zhi's aristocratic temperament.
In the end, Cao Zhi ended Cao Cao's expectations by riding his horse through Sima Gate.
Why is this happening?
Because it really takes three generations to cultivate a nobleman, it was too late for Cao Cao to start.
Although Cao Cao came from a wealthy family, he was a descendant of eunuchs who were despised at the time. He was well-read, but he had no aristocratic cultivation. Counting from Cao Cao, this was the first generation.
Has Cao Cao's generation always been starting businesses? He fights with Lu Bu today, Yuan Shu tomorrow, and Yuan Shao the day after tomorrow. After fighting Yuan Shao, he fights Liu Bei and Sun Quan. He can’t even keep up with the battles, so how can he have time for such red tape as aristocratic temperament?
When it came to the generation of Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, they were both entrepreneurs. In the early stages they had no time to focus on cultivating their children's aristocratic qualities. By the time they were successful and had some free time, their children had grown up.
It is easy to change the country but difficult to change one's nature. If you are influenced by the unruly spirit of your parents, it is nonsense to want to have the so-called aristocratic temperament, which will only bring you trouble.
As for aristocratic temperament, it has to start from childhood. If you want to cultivate it from a young age, you have to wait until at least the third generation. Only the third generation will have both the resources and time to cultivate it.
For example, the last emperor Puyi. As you can see, although he did not have any real ability, he had an aristocratic temperament. He stood and sat properly, and his every move and word were quite appropriate.
To put it bluntly, aristocratic temperament is actually good habits.
It is not difficult to cultivate aristocratic temperament, but it needs to be started from an early age.
Only by cultivating good habits from an early age and sticking to them will they become as easy and natural as breathing.
This is obviously not the case in the An family.
Their family started with An Jianhua and Fang Mingxia's generation, which can be considered the first generation.
But An Yunxi and An Yunze are only the second generation.
The couple were originally ordinary working class people, and even when they became rich, they only made their children's living conditions better.
Before her children became adults, Fang Mingxia didn't even buy them luxury items.
It’s not that Fang Mingxia is reluctant or that it’s not good for the child.
Rather, it was the limitations caused by the couple's background and experience. They felt that the child was still young and there was no need for this.
Even before An Yunxi went to college, the couple didn't let her participate in social activities.
This is also the reason why the daughter of the richest man in Yunzhou has always been mysterious in the Yunzhou circle.
They have no idea that they should cultivate their children's aristocratic upbringing and temperament from an early age.
Because in the eyes of An Jianhua and Fang Mingxia, their family was just lucky and made some money with the help of their daughter's master.
Therefore, An Yunxi and An Yunze did not receive any training in this area when they were young.
Even the couple themselves only learned some business and social etiquette after their business was established.
An Yunxi might be better off, after all, she was also the eldest daughter and mistress of a noble family in the ancient world.
Even if she is just a tool for marriage between aristocratic families, at least her family has put a lot of effort into her training.
In addition, after she unlocked the system, with the help of the Bai Fumei course, her noble and elegant temperament became more and more prominent.
So, to outsiders, An Yunxi looked like someone who was brought up in a large family.
But An Yunze never had such an opportunity.
Fortunately, An Jianhua and Fang Mingxia began to realize their shortcomings in this area from their daughter.
Ever since An Yunxi discussed this topic with her parents, the couple has changed their approach to raising their son.
After learning etiquette and various aspects of knowledge, as well as improving his knowledge and vision, An Yunze began to be reborn and became a completely different person.
The reason why An Yunxi wanted to communicate with her parents about her younger brother's training was that she realized the difference between their family and those families that have been passed down for generations.
To put it nicely, they are a newly emerging wealthy family, but to put it bluntly, they are "nouveau riche".
Although he is not as mindlessly high-profile as the nouveau riche, he really lacks the temperament and background of the aristocracy.
She already has so many assets, and she is not planning to take the ones for An’s family.
In this way, her younger brother would inherit the family property.
As an heir, her brother is really too immature.
After all, the An family’s business itself is not small.
With her help, I will definitely reach a higher level in the future.
To be in charge of such a large industry, it is definitely not possible without some real skills.
To this end, she specially made a detailed training plan for An Yunze and gave it to his parents. She also specially found several teachers to teach her brother.
