How did such immense wealth fall into my family?

Chapter 236 You want to trick me into reading?

The second steward looked at Xiao Gousheng, then at Tang Xiaoliu. How did things turn out like this? "Miss Qian, where are you taking my sixth young master?"

"Don't worry about this. Someone come here."

"Yes." The guard outside immediately pushed open the door and came in. "Miss, what are your orders?"

The little dog pointed at the second steward. "Take him to have some tea."

"Yes." The guard walked to the second steward and gestured for him to proceed. "Please."

The second steward didn't want to go for tea. "Sixth Young Master?"

Sixth Young Master wanted to know why Little Dog Sheng called him the lowest rank. "Why aren't you going yet?"

The second steward was at a loss. "Yes, Miss Qian, you must take good care of my sixth young master."

The puppy said, "Don't worry."

Tang Xiaoliu: "I'm not a three-year-old child."

The second steward was still very worried. "Sixth Young Master, Old..."

"Why are you so long-winded?" Tang Xiaoliu interrupted him before he could finish speaking.

The second steward dared not speak.

As soon as he left, Tang Xiaoliu said, "Let's go."

"it is good."

The puppy, having only a few people left, took Tang Xiaoliu to the male-male brothel.

Tang Xiaoliu was both angry and ashamed! "You...you...you..."

The little dog glanced at Tang Xiaoliu sideways. "They make a living with their looks, and you want to make a living with your looks too. How are you any different from them?"

"I...I...I..."

The little dog pointed at the humble male prostitutes in the hall and said, "You'll have to be just like them and humbly try to make your wife happy in the future."

“I…I…I am a young master from an official family.”

"So what? If you want to be a kept man, you'll definitely find someone with higher status and position than you to be your wife."

"I……"

The little dog stood up from the chair. "Alright, I'll take you to the next place. There are people who live off women there too."

Tang Xiaoliu glanced at the male prostitutes in the hall before leaving with Xiaogou Sheng.

Xiao Gou Sheng took Tang Xiao Liu to the most famous theater in the area.

Tang Xiaoliu thought Xiaogousheng was going to take him to see a play, but to his surprise, Xiaogousheng had the troupe leader of the theater invited over. "Do you know who I am?"

"I know." People like them are usually well-informed. "Are you Miss Qian Si? Would you like to see a play?"

The little dog chuckled. "I don't want to listen to opera. I want to see how your actors interact with those people who are completely infatuated with them?"

The troupe leader thought one of his actors had fallen for someone he shouldn't have. He immediately knelt down. "Please forgive me, young lady! Please forgive me, young lady!"

The little dog, Sheng, had the guards lift the troupe leader up. "You've misunderstood. I'm not here to interrogate you. I just want to broaden this young master's horizons."

The troupe leader wiped the sweat from his brow. "I understand. Which one would you like to see?"

"Let's take a look at all of them."

"I'll take you there right away."

"Ah."

After following the troupe leader around several corners, the little dog saw a middle-aged man applying eyebrows to an actor. After finishing, the middle-aged man took out a jade pendant from his pocket and hung it on the actor's waist.

As the actor picked the fruit, he said, "This is too precious, I can't accept it."

The middle-aged man pressed down on the actor's hand. "It's just a jade pendant."

"This……"

"Just accept it, I think it's not good enough for you."

"how come?"

"Really, I really think this jade pendant is not good enough for you. Once I find someone better, you can throw this one away."

"I won't throw it away. Even if you gave me a rock, I would keep it carefully."

The man was delighted. "I'll bring you a jade thumb ring next time."

When Xiaogou Sheng felt that it was about time, he asked the troupe leader to take them to another place.

This time it was a woman.

The woman was probably in her thirties. Looking at the actor with admiration, she said, "You sing so beautifully." The actor smiled faintly. "You flatter me, madam."

"No. You sing really well. Would you like to be the troupe leader? If you want to, I'll pay you."

The actor poured the woman a cup of tea. "Thank you. I don't want to be the troupe leader right now."

"why?"

"I don't think I can manage a theatrical troupe right now."

"You can definitely handle it."

The actor smiled.

The woman's gaze became even more infatuated. "You have such a beautiful smile. If you want to be the troupe leader, just tell me. My money is just sitting there doing nothing."

"I cannot use your money."

"Why? Do you think I'm not as good-looking as someone with the surname Li?"

"No. You and Sister Li are both my benefactors."

"Then why don't you use my money?"

The puppy rolled its eyes inwardly. "Let's go."

"Yes."

The troupe leader led the little dog around for quite a while.

This time it wasn't so "harmonious".

A man who looked like a manager pointed at an actor and scolded him, "Don't be so stubborn. My master invited you over because he thinks highly of you."

The actor moved aside. "I just want to focus on performing."

"Pah! You just want more money, don't you? I'll give you another two hundred taels."

"I really just want to focus on performing opera."

"Three hundred taels."

"Adding more won't help."

"You! Just wait for me."

After saying that, the man stormed off.

The little dog smiled at Tang Xiaoliu. "Want to keep watching?"

"No." He already understood what she meant by saying that there are different levels of being a kept man.

"Then let's go." Little Dog Sheng took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and threw it at the troupe leader.

The troupe leader was surprised to receive a tip. "Thank you, thank you so much."

The puppy grunted "Mmm" and then led Tang Xiaoliu and the guard away.

Back at the inn, Xiao Gou Sheng looked at Tang Xiao Liu and asked, "How are you feeling?"

"Not very good. Are you trying to make me change my goals?"

The little dog shook his head. "No. I just want you to know that there are different kinds of people who live off women. If you want to live comfortably and with dignity, you can't just rely on your looks; you have to have something worthwhile to offer."

"Is the dignity you're talking about like that of those actors?"

"Of course not. Their level is only intermediate."

"And what about the top-tier ones?"

"Top-tier ones aren't something you can just find anywhere."

Tang Xiaoliu wanted to know what the top-tier was like. "Have you ever seen the top-tier?"

"I've seen it."

Where did you meet?

"At a poetry gathering."

Tang Xiaoliu was taken aback. "You're trying to trick me into studying?"

The little dog glanced at Tang Xiaoliu. "Do you have some misunderstanding about studying? Does studying mean you have to take the imperial examination? Does it mean you have to become an official? Studying can improve your temperament, make you look better, and make a bunch of women chase after you with money and beg you to spend it."

The little dog stared into Tang Xiaoliu's eyes and asked, "Do you want to be like those male prostitutes? Or do you want to be like the top scholar?"

"I..." I think you're trying to trick me into studying. "I'll think about it."

"Is there even a need to consider this?" The puppy shook its head in disappointment. "You really are all looks and no substance."
