What does "poor looking at the hall, rich looking at the kitchen" mean? How to understand it?

The poor look at the hall and the rich look at the kitchen? This sentence is easy to understand, poor man, just look at his living room; Rich people, just look at his kitchen. What most of us should think clearly is, why can we tell that he is poor/rich by looking at the living room/kitchen? Some people compare the living room to? Face? The kitchen is compared to? Lizi? . This metaphor is just right. When guests visit, they usually stay in the living room. I don't think any guests will go directly to your kitchen. This is impolite. For the sake of saving face, the poor will also decorate the living room grandly and noblely to show that you are rich. Real rich people, on the contrary, pay attention to life, taste life and health, and will spend a lot of money to build a beautiful kitchen. Of course, the total cost of high-end appliances in the kitchen is more than in the living room. Perhaps this understanding is a little too one-sided. The size of the living room or the number of things or whether things are expensive can't measure a person's wealth.

Compared with the warm living room in Jason Wu and the gorgeous living room in Wang Leehom, it can accommodate 100 people. Can you tell which of them has money and which has no money? On the contrary, the layout of the living room, how it feels and how it is arranged, can only explain what kind of person the owner is in life. The living room is big enough, but the room is full of shelves and sorted books, so it won't look empty and messy. This does not reflect that the owner of this house loves reading and cleanliness, and his personality belongs to the kind of natural and easy-going person (of course, it does not rule out that bookshelves are only used to hold samples, rarely). Living room space is not big, only simple tables and chairs, will you think he is not rich? No, no, no, sometimes using less and showing more is a person's lifestyle or attitude towards life. The owner of this kind of house should like a cool and free life. Personally, I also like the layout of the latter, and I like relatively empty places, but the furniture layout will not appear deserted. See what my personality is. Hmm! Afraid of loneliness.

Next, the kitchen can be said to be the most inconspicuous place in the home. As mentioned just now, guests usually don't visit the kitchen. Regardless of the size of the kitchen, it is particularly important to arrange and tidy your kitchen, which can show the owner's taste in life. If a kitchen is beautifully decorated and luxurious, but messy, it can be called a pigsty, and you are still in the mood to cook. Of course, there seems to be a deviation here.

To sum up,? The poor look at the hall and the rich look at the kitchen? There is some truth in this sentence, and it is naturally one-sided.
