King Arthur’s Queen Guinevere and Arthur’s loyal servant, Lancelot, were in love with each other. Then, King Arthur knows that. But that relationship doesn’t hurt King Arthur and Lancelot’s master-servant relationship, and the Queen isn’t punished for her faithlessness

Haa.

Marriage is a family and family problem, so it’s not about trying oneself to the one you prefer. Therefore, love is a separate subject. That’s their thought

what the hell?

However, in Christian Europe, women had relative rights. In Europe, women had the right to possess fortunes. However, in the East, women had no such rights. Therefore, only men had rights to free love. Before the war, adultery is a crime. But it only applies to women. The husband can cheat all he wants, have some lovers, and even keep a concubine but it’s not a sin, but in case the woman goes with a man other than her husband, she’s punished O-Okay. The current moral sense of people was born from the middle class after the industrial revolution, where most families are a husband and wife, and their children, a small unit. Before the industrial revolution, family means a gathering of multiple households. Without that much number, one cannot do agriculture because mechanization doesn’t exist yet. The solidarity of the family is crucial, and do the question of who’s marrying who? Would they marry someone in the household? Or would they reinforce relationships with other households? It’s a long process to decide.

Yeah, you need a large family to tend on the farmland.

There’s also the problem of the soil and watering spots.

Then, it has its advantage. I think you know it already, but there are fewer cases of divorces among couples that had their parents decide their marriage than those who married in love. It’s a relationship between families, and so, if any problem occurs, then it’s not just the parents but the whole household involved. They will look after the small child and help them out in one way or another Yeah, it’s a large family, after all. Also, people who can’t marry will not exist. As long as one doesn’t have a significant flaw, then the son or daughter will find a marriage partner in the family

Oh, I get it.

The nobility is one large family. Therefore, we still try to do the ways of the old

I see. Kouzuki house’s branch family is just a branch family.

Therefore, they can seduce and chase after women.

But, for the members of the main house, that’s not allowed.

And yet, Misuzu-chan suddenly announced marrying you

Katsuko-nee smiled.

Furthermore, Kouzuki-sama gave his permission. Then, it’s natural for them to want and see what kind of man he is, don’t you think?

Minaho-neesan?

In short, most of the girls today came to see you. I think that is Kaan-sama’s main objective?

Me?

Then, Misuzu-chan and the young ladies were talking about the situation in Kouzuki house, right?

Katsuko-nee said.

Oh, Kouzuki house has no male heir, so they have to marry one into the daughters.

That convinced the young ladies. And since they saw that you’re not a bad guy, they accepted it It’s great that you are well behaved. Furthermore, you’re the only male in there, so you stood out. Despite that, you never asserted yourself, just letting Misuzu take the spotlight

Jii-chan said.

Misuzu-chan and Ruriko-chan also passed. Ordinary girls would show themselves flirting with their boyfriend in front of people, but those girls were firm, and they never cling to you more than necessary, did they?

Now that she mentioned it.

They didn’t.

Women feel irritated when others are flirting in front of them. But, if the couple show a natural atmosphere where others see that they love each other, that they trust each other, nobody will look at you hatefully

i see.

Well, even so, some of them should still malaise with Misuzu-chan, but Kaan-sama’s young lady, the leader of the group, glossed it over

Momoko-neechan did?

After all, it’s Misuzu-chan’s hosted party, and before anyone noticed, Kaan-sama’s young lady is the one giving instructions

Right, pledging as sworn sisters and such.

That’s good. Kaan’s daughter took the spotlight, strengthening Misuzu’s status

Jii-chan said.

The girls who came to this party will surely solidify as a single group. Kaan’s daughter will be the leader, and Misuzu will be the vice-leader. No, that’s for the better. She won’t have to stand out. After all, Kaan’s daughter loves to be conspicuous

Momoko-neechan’s an attention seeker.

The gathering today serves as the rite of passage as a cooperative body. To ease the tension. Kyouko-kun’s attack, apprehending the spy, and my voice raise their anxiety. When I was scolding Kaan’s daughter, the girls in the courtyard also feel that I’m scolding them. It doesn’t matter if I kept on talking back then. They fear my scolding, and when I gave forgiveness, they felt relief. Furthermore, I opened up to them with my secret Secret? The Kakka part

Minaho-neesan whispers.

Oh that. Were you okay telling them that?

That the people calling Jii-chan Kakka were looking down on him.

Jii-chan has no history of becoming an ambassador, and yet, he made people believe that they have to call him Kakka because he was a former ambassador.

Where others don’t investigate before meeting up with a VIP.

It’s okay

Jii-chan laughs.

Those girls will return home and talk about what I told them. However

Yeah, historically, people who call him Kakka were the upstarts.

Therefore, calling Jii-chan like that would mean that they’re the same as them.

The parents can’t do anything about it anyway

Huh?

Kouzuki-sama never talked about How he wants to be addressed

Minaho-neesan said.

And I order my subordinates to forbid themselves from calling me anything other than Kakka

Right, whatever the Kakka means behind the scenes.

Shou-neechan and Rei-chan still calls Jii-chan Kakka,

That’s because Jii-chan ordered them.

My subordinates will still call me Kakka

Yeah, then the subordinates will continue to call Jii-chan Kakka as means of etiquette.

Instead, some of them will feel troubled of they don’t address me as Kakka. Only their daughters came to this gathering after all

I see. those who haven’t come here don’t know what’s the story behind Kakka.

Therefore, they will continue to call him that.

And if among them, someone stopped addressing him Kakka and called him Kouzuki-sama instead, then.

They’ll get cut off from others, stand out, and probably provoke antipathy.

In the end, they will pretend they didn’t hear their daughter’s story and still address me as Kakka That’s the best way not to aggravate people

Jii-chan doesn’t hate the fact that he’s addressed as such.

I’m sure that they will feel awkward about it, so I will be having fun watching them look troubled

Jii-chan shows a malicious smile.

What’s essential is that the ladies who came here today felt that the head of Kouzuki house opened up and told them a secret. Their extreme tension will ease up. Everyone had the same experience so that friendship will sprout. Therefore, everyone in the party is friendly with each other and enjoying the night

There’s no longer factions dividing them.

Momoko-neechan’s leading everyone to a pleasant conversation.

That’s for the better. Those girls will become valuable allies who help each other for Misuzu, Ruriko, Yoshiko, and you

Chapter 870. High Life Activation

Now then, is that all for the stubborn old man’s story?

Kyouko-san speaks up after listening to my conversation with Jii-chan.

Well, if you ask me, you should only take half of the old man’s advice

Kyouko-san snorts.

People who live in the upper class use their arrogant reasoning to talk about how the world works. I won’t say that it’s all wrong, but don’t accept it without questioning either
