"The third family is the An State Duke's Mansion family. You treated Wang Zizhao, so it's normal for the State Duke Ann family."
Upon hearing that it was the Hu Family, Tang Yue was relieved, and nodded his head to agree, "Then the specific dates of the three families are not conflicting, right?"
"Rest assured, this kind of family will inform each other before inviting guests. It just so happens that in the next three days, every family will receive their State Duke Heng's Mansion tonight. This subordinate will help you prepare the gifts."
Tang Yue heaved a sigh of relief, suddenly he had the feeling that he had entered the upper class. However, he had never liked social gatherings, so it would be better for him to avoid such things in the future.
"Then I'll be troubling Uncle Quan."
"Husband, you're in serious trouble," the butler smiled, made a bow, and left.
Tang Yue was preparing to find someone to make him a few small chairs. Although he should follow the customs of the world, being able to sit on his knees everyday was not good for his lower limbs. In his own courtyard, he still hoped to follow his preferences.
Before he could exit the courtyard, the butler who had just left ran over hurriedly, "young dandy … Fast... "Hurry up and go to the front hall to receive the order!"
Tang Yue did not dare delay any longer, after changing his clothes, he followed the butler to the hall. Upon entering the door, he found that all the elders had arrived.
The whole family knelt straight as they listened to the servants recite the long and boring ode, and only then were there a series of rewards. Tang Yue could tell from the expressions of the others that this reward should be quite generous.
Looks like the king is quite satisfied with his treatment of Wang Zizhao, at least on the surface.
After giving the servant a reward, Tang Yue accompanied the whole family to look at the treasures bestowed to him. This was the first time he had experienced the rewards given by an ancient Emperor, and it was especially fresh.
Furthermore, the things bestowed by the royal family was not bad, the quality and color of the clothes were all good, and there was even half a carriage of wine, which made the Yueyang Marquis feel good about it.
The madame distributed the rest of the items that she could use. Some that she could not use were sealed away in the storeroom with someone in charge.
Just as they were about to leave, another wave of rewards arrived. This time, it was from the Madame Hu Queen, and the gifts were less than the royal gifts.
However, there were 10 beauties that were quite eye-catching. Tang Yue had a headache as he thought: It seems that the upper class in this era always liked to give out gifts to people.
Glancing at the Marquis's Wife's stiff face, Tang Yue thought mischievously: If he were to give these beauties to the Yueyang Marquis, I wonder if she would eat me alive.
However, it was better not to worry about it. It was quite wicked to ruin the relationship between husband and wife.
As usual, Tang Yue sent the beauties away to do their menial work. Ignoring the weird gazes of the crowd, he happily carried a box full of precious wood back to the courtyard.
He had a nagging feeling that this box was created by Wang Zizhao, and when he took out the wood and found that there were 12 different types, he was even more sure that it was Wang Zizhao's work.
However, he wasn't giving these wood materials to her because she wanted to carve another set of the Twelve Births of Life for him, right?
Tang Yue curled his lips, throwing this thought to the back of his mind. He chose a piece of rosewood, and was prepared to carve a bracelet for the madame.
He was unable to inscribe Buddhist scriptures on the beads, but carving a Buddha statue on top was not a problem. After that, he would create a wooden sculpture of the Yueyang Marquis.
As for the Marquis's Wife, he would skip over it for now. When would he be able to show respect to her again when she stopped fighting with him?
Tang Yue was not in a hurry to send them off, treating them as entertainment during his free time.
It wasn't too late for the night banquet in this era, it was only a quarter of an hour later. It was only half past three in the modern world, yet Tang Yue had already boarded his horse carriage and headed towards the State Duke Heng's Mansion.
The butler looked at the carriage in the distance and wiped the sweat from his forehead. It was almost autumn, but why was it still so hot?
He led a group of birds with him as they walked back. Halfway through their journey, they met Marquis's Wife who was admiring the flowers and hurriedly greeted with their people.
"What's going on? Aren't these people going to send them to the State Duke Heng's Mansion? " Marquis's Wife pointed at the beauty behind him and asked.
The butler lowered his head and answered: "young dandy said that with the relationship between our two families, sending a beauty to the State Duke Heng's Mansion is a little inappropriate."
"What's wrong with that?"
"This... young dandy said that Noble Heir of State Duke Heng was originally a lustful person, surrounded by beauties. He also likes to avoid the old, and if too many beauties are given to his, it would be even more difficult for his to manage the backyard in the future. "
Actually, Tang Yue still had something else to say, but the butler didn't have the face to tell Mrs Zhao. His original words were: The amount of sperm in a human's body is limited, but now all of them have been squeezed out by other women.
In such a large clan, no children were allowed to directly divorce their wives.
Furthermore, even if it was a man's problem, it would still be blamed on the woman. Thus, he had to ensure that Noble Heir of State Duke Heng would still have the ability to bear children before marriage.
[Small Theater]
Marquis's Wife: "Why did you bring back the beauty that was gifted to State Duke Heng's Mansion?"
The butler said: "young dandy said to keep his on guard!"
Marquis's Wife: "How?"
Housekeeper: "I don't know."
Marquis's Wife: "Then ask him if he can keep the wine as well."
The butler replied: "According to young dandy's words, I probably have to give up on all kinds of lustful thoughts."
Marquis's Wife: Is that still a human?
Housekeeper: "Probably..." That's right! " Aren't monks also human?
