Be A Virtuous Wife! So Tough!

C15 Brother Your Smile Is so Gentle

Tang Yue finished his breakfast and decided to take a stroll around the house. After all, it was his place to stay in the future. He couldn’t just leave the door open.

Initially, he wanted the four guards to show him around. However, as soon as he went out, he saw Grandpa Shan kneeling at the door of his room. He blinked and asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

Kneeling in front of his door as a door god?

Shan smiled and said excitedly, “young master, I will serve you in the future. What can I do for you?”

Tang Yue was happy to hear that. After all, they had known each other for a long time. He liked this grandpa quite a lot. He was loyal and well-hidden. He would not have to worry about encountering criminals when he went out in the future.

The mountain had stayed in the mansion for decades. He could walk around the mansion with his eyes closed. With him around, Tang Yue didn’t need anyone else to follow him. The two of them wandered around aimlessly.

“young master, from now on, slaves will have proper names.”

“What’s your name?” Tang Yue asked.

“Tang Shan,” said Wang Yao.

The corner of Tang Yue’s mouth twitched and he chuckled. “Then congratulations.” Didn’t Uncle Shan used to be called Tang Shan? He had always thought that all his servants had the surname of their family.

Shan thought that he didn’t understand, so he explained to him. Only then did Tang Yue understand that all the slaves had no surname. Unless the master gave them a surname, otherwise, they would only have a name and no surname for the rest of their lives.

The ones who were better than the slaves were the servants. They came from a commoner family, and because they could not survive, they worked hard. Although their lives were also in the hands of their employers, there was hope for them to regain their freedom in the future.

To put it bluntly, they were contracted workers who used their youth to earn retirement money. When they were released after 10 or 20 years, they would be free.

Tang Yue knew that in this era of economic underdevelopment, most people’s goals were to eat, wear, and warm themselves. However, this seemingly simple goal was very difficult to achieve.

Yueyang Marquis’s Mansion occupied a large area, but it was not very planned. Between the yard and the yard, there were either trees or grass. It could be seen that it was a place where Wu Fu did not know the style of living.

“The backyard is the entrance to this door. It is where the concubines live. They are not allowed to go out during normal days.”

Tang Yue knew that in this era where men were respected, a successful man could have countless women. Other than the main wife and the famous concubines, other women had no social status. They only existed as accessories to men.

Tang Yue thought to himself, If he was Yueyang Marquis, he would have abandoned his wife and son and returned to his hometown. Which normal man would be willing to give up a forest for a small sapling?

“This way. The bridge is where the ladies live. young master wants to take a look.”

Tang Yue was in a daze for a moment before he realized that the lady was talking about the sister of the Seven Fairies. He nodded. “Let’s go. It’s good to go and recognize the door.”

The yard that the girls lived in was surprisingly clean. The yard was full of flowers and plants. It was also very pleasant to look at. The sound of the zither could be heard from the house, accompanied by a few lovely words.

The ladies of the wealthy families must have been learning how to play the zither, play the chess, and draw since they were young, right? Tang Yue thought, No wonder they were all so well-educated.

Director Tang had apparently forgotten that he had been rejected by his’ well-educated ‘younger sister the moment he entered the house.

Moreover, the girls of this era did not pay much attention to learning music, chess, painting, and painting. Most of them were illiterate. They only learned simple arithmetic to make it easier for the butler. Most of them learned singing, dancing, and musical instruments to please their future husband.

The Seven Fairies of Yueyang Marquis’s Mansion did learn a lot. They started learning how to read at the age of five, and at the age of six, they focused on learning a skill according to their hobbies. At this hour of the day, they had to learn etiquette and upbringing.

“What are you doing here?” The eldest sister was as fierce as always. She put her hands on her waist and glared at Tang Yue angrily.

Before Tang Yue could speak, a gentle voice came from inside the house. “Ya, don’t be rude. You must be a lady.”

Tang Ya put down her hands angrily and asked with a fake smile, “What is elder brother doing here?”

Tang Yue was stunned by her two styles and replied in a cultured manner, “Passing by this place, come and see the younger sisters.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a few small heads popped out of the window. They were all staring at him curiously with their eyes wide open.

He raised his hand and revealed a classic smile. “Hey! Hello sisters!”

A few lolis laughed at the same time and said in unison, “Hello, Brother!”

“Brother, the candy you gave me yesterday is very delicious. Anything else?” Tang Yue thought about it carefully. He remembered that it was his younger sister, who was ranked second. She was also a daughter of the family.

Tang Ya saw her younger sister was leaning out and scolded, “Ah Wan, it’s not like we can’t afford those cheap things at home. If you want to eat, just let someone buy it.”

Tang Wan smiled shyly and did not reply. In fact, everyone knew that she only cared about that kind of heart.

Tang Yue instantly fell in love with this second sister. “You like to buy it for you next time, but you can’t eat too much sugar. It will rot your teeth!”

In this era, there were no toothpaste toothbrushes. If there were conditions, they would rinse their mouths with saline water. If there were no conditions, they could only rinse their mouths with clean water. Tang Yue made a simple toothbrush with pig’s fur and brushed his teeth with salt.

Tang Wan probably did not understand the meaning of tooth decay, but she also knew that it was bad for teeth. She obediently nodded her head. “Then I’ll eat two every day… No, one is good!”

“I want it too…” The tender voice sounded in unison.

Tang Yue laughed heartily. The uneasiness he felt after coming to an unfamiliar world was instantly cured. He was truly a group of cute little angels.

“Alright, it’s a deal!”

The younger sisters thought at the same time. Brother laughed so gently. He was much friendlier than Father.
