"在一个家庭里总有几个人这样唱的

一个打了你的----那是唱黑脸(或红脸)的
另外一个又给你糖吃的----那是唱白脸的"

http://zhidao.baidu.com/question/101066570.html

  一般在公司里:红脸是装和事佬,黑脸是装恶人,白脸是装好人。
  比如对于某事情处理得不好,经理狠狠地批评你,这时经理就是黑脸(表示不讲人情,如黑脸的包公一样)。

Usually used for parents for the good guy/bad guy relationships.

Bad guy always punnishes - very strict with the kids.
Good guy never punnishes - lets kids do whatever they want.

These relationships can also be used in other settings, like a company - a strict boss is 唱黑脸的....etc etc....
