Shen Yuhan learned from the mouths of the woman and Sister Jiao, he was being supervised in disguise, they sent him here in the morning, and in the afternoon there are four more guards in the villa, in fact, it was just to keep an eye on Shen Yuhan and prevent him from running out, after all, in the eyes of the others, he is a grown man, whereas Sister Jiao was just a woman, so she might not be able to guard against him.
But this kind of surveillance also gave Shen Yuhan some time to accept this new world, at least he had a few days to sort out his thoughts.
After staying in the villa for less than half a day, Shen Yuhan learned the woman’s information from Sister Jiao, she turns out to be the third wife of his fiancé’s father.
Sister Jiao communicates with the outside world through a small square box as big as a palm, he didn’t know what it was, but if even a servant like Sister Jiao is able to use it, he should have one too, however, Shen Yuhan doesn’t ask Sister Jiao about it, he didn’t want to reveal his soul-switching for the time being, what if his soul is captured by a Taoist priest.
Of course, Sister Jiao is not a fuel-efficient lamp1省油的燈 (shěng yóu de dēng): (mostly with negative) person who is easy to deal with; person who does not stir up trouble., although she doesn’t shortchange the food and drink of ‘Young Master Shen’, but she will not pay attention to him unless necessary, every morning, she would report Shen Yuhan’s situation in the villa to the Third Madam, Duan Qiuhui.
On the first day of being confined, Shen Yuhan was very quiet, neither noisy nor fussy, he didn’t act like a monster while staying in the villa, and he didn’t make any fuss about returning his mobile phone.
This is a great surprise to people.
Shen Yuhan stayed in the villa for a day, and mastered the use of the TV remote control switch. When Sister Jiao went out to buy groceries, he sat in front of the TV and watched TV to supplement his modern knowledge, he could learn many novel things through this large box, but they were all guesswork.
After Sister Jiao went out, Shen Yuhan secretly learned about the new world through TV, no one forbids him watching TV, anyway, when Sister Jiao was around, he would sit and watch.
Shen Yuhan saw the TV shopping, all kinds of ‘999’, ‘888’, ‘188’ flashed in front of his eyes, when he pressed the next station, there would also be health programs for middle-aged and elderly people, cooking demonstrations and gourmet programs, the utensils displayed by the people on the stage were different from those he had seen before, but the bowls, chopsticks and plates were no different, and then there were brainwashing advertisements, silky smooth chocolates2絲滑的巧克力 (sī huá de qiǎokèlì): T/N: A famous chocolate brand in China, Dove, it’s delicious. 
, Heilan Home3海瀾之家 (Hǎilán zhī Jiā): Heilan Home, short for HEILAN HOME CO., LTD, established in 2002, is the core fast fashion brand under Heilan Group based in Jiangyin, Jiangsu Province in China. HLA was named as one of “Chinese National Well-known Trademarks” in 2009., footwear for the elderly, and so on. In addition, he also watched some TV dramas with different themes, especially romantic dramas, which are Sister Jiao’s favorite, the emotional entanglements between men and women, and so on, when he wasn’t careful, he see the climax of the drama, where a couple kissing on a bridge where people come and go, Shen Yuhan is stunned by their straightforward relationship.
The teachings he had received in the past were ‘Look not at what is contrary to propriety, listen not to what is contrary to propriety, speak not what is contrary to propriety, make no movement which is contrary to propriety4非禮勿視，非禮勿聽，非禮勿言，非禮勿行 (fēilǐ wù shì, fēilǐ wù tīng, fēilǐ wù yán, fēilǐ wù xíng): From Confucian Analects BOOK XII. YEN YUAN. The more popular adaptation is the three wise monkeys, a Japanese pictorial maxim, embodying the proverbial principle ‘see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil’.‘, when he suddenly seeing behavior other than ‘Propriety’, using the word he knows to describe it is ‘Out of line’, this world is too different, is this the world of the future?
Shen Yuhan’s first step into the new world was to become addicted to TV.
–
The next afternoon, a group of strangers came to the villa, bringing with them several racks of clothes, what is gratifying is that he can communicate with people other than Sister Jiao, observe their words, deeds, and behaviors, and strive to understand the new world and learn new knowledge.
The wedding is next week, just starting to prepare the clothes now, it’s a bit late, but money will make the devil turn the millstones5有錢能使鬼推磨 (yǒu qián néng shǐ guǐ tuī mò): lit. if you have money, you can make the devil push the millstone for you (Proverb); fig. with money, you can do anything you like; money makes the world go around; money talks; The old description of money is everything..
Looking at this battle, Shen Yuhan also knew that he couldn’t escape, and could only marry someone obediently, God gave him a chance to be reborn, so he can only bite the bullet and get on with his life, he didn’t know what he could do, mainly because he was penniless6身無分文 (shēn wú fēn wén): penniless (idiom); not have a penny left on one; be flat/stony broke., if he ran away, he might starve himself to death in two days.
However, after watching TV dramas for two days, he also realized that there are only men and women in this world, there are no ger.
“Hello, Mr. Shen, I’m Andy, the designer of Youxian Studio, please try this white dress first, this is the latest model from our studio, the size matches your figure, it’s too late to re-customize it, you can only wear a ready-made one.”
Fortunately, he could understand what the tailor, no, the designer, said, it seems that there are similarities between modern times and their Qi country, he only hoped that he could learn more knowledge before getting married, so as not to be disliked by his future husband, no matter what7無論如何 (wú lùn rú hé): one way or another; whatever the case; in any event; no matter what; by all possible means; in any case; at any rate; whatever happens; come what may., he had to ensure that he could survive, even if his husband disliked him later, he still had another way out.
Learning everything around him is his only way out at present.
“I have no problem.” Shen Yuhan said.
The process of choosing a dress is very quick, every time he tried on a dress, Andy would shake his head or nod, and then write and draw in his notebook.
Holding up a coat with orchid fingers8蘭花指 (lán huā zhǐ): (originally opera) A hand gesture, where the tip of the thumb gently touches the distal part of the middle finger and the remaining fingers are slightly flexed, making the hand resembling the petals of an orchid flower. It is considered a sign of grace and femininity. More information on orchid gestures: Link 1, Link 2, Link 3. raised, he said: “You will need to change into two sets of clothes on your wedding day, one set to be worn during the ceremony, and the other set will be worn during the toast, Mr. Shan’s clothes match yours, white or beige looks OK for your skin, do you have any other opinions? I just saw you wearing this off-white outfit that looks the most eye-catching, you won’t be outdone by the guests.”
Shen Yuhan was not uncomfortable with his behavior, and was even quite accustomed to it, many of the ger around him also like to move their orchid fingers, but he has always been regarded as the ‘First Ger’, and seldom behaved in this manner, no matter what he did, he was always asked by his mother to follow the rules, and not to make any mistakes.
“No objection, it’s fine.” Shen Yuhan has never worn such clothes before, whether it was the ripped clothes and trousers worn by orchid fingers tailor or the clothes on several racks that he had brought with him, each of them was particularly novel to him, however, novelty was novelty, and he only appreciated it for a while.
He’s been living in the villa these days, his clothes were all prepared by someone sent by the Third Madam, all of them are about comfort, there is no choice, and there are no styles to speak of, after seeing Andy and his assistants, he realized that there are so many styles of clothes in this world, which was another eye-opening9大開眼界 (dà kāi yǎn jiè): eye-opening; able to broaden one’s horizon; feed one’s sight on; greatly to widen one’s horizon; Broaden your horizons and increase your knowledge. experience.
And all these surprises, Shen Yuhan kept them all in his heart, because there is a saying that ignorance is not terrible, what terrible is ignorance without self-awareness.
“Mr. Shan also said to leave it all to our studio to arrange, since both of you have no opinions, I will prepare the clothes and send them over tomorrow.”
Shen Yuhan nodded: “You guys can arrange it as you see fit.”
In order to express the sincerity of the studio to customers, Andy even gave Shen Yuhan several sets of new products when he left.
Shen Yuhan wanted to refuse, but he finally accepted it, thinking that his fiancé had already spent money on it.
–
On the morning of the third day, two people came to give him a haircut, one was the apprentice who washed and massaged his hair, while the other was a stylist, who dyed his hair purple, is responsible to give Shen Yuhan’s haircut and chatted with him.
Shen Yuhan sat obediently, sitting when he was asked to sit, and washing his hair when he was asked to do so.
The other party asked him what he wanted, and he said just cut off the yellow part.
Sister Jiao watched from the sidelines and felt something was wrong, ever since Shen Yuhan was locked up in the villa, apart from his indifferent attitude towards her, he was just like ordinary people at other times, he was quite quiet, even when he get his hair cut, as if he had really accepted the idea of marrying Young Master Shan Qihuan.
After she told Duan Qiuhui about this, the other party snorted coldly: “Playing little tricks with me, Sister Jiao, don’t fall for his trick, he just wants you to let your guard down, and come back to pester Qiyun, keep a close eye on him, and make sure that he finishes the wedding ceremony with Qihuan.”
Sister Jiao felt that the Madam’s speculation was reasonable, ginger gets spicier as it gets older10薑還是老的辣 (jiāng hái shì lǎo de là): lit. It’s the older ginger that is the spicy one; ginger gets spicier as it gets older (idiom); the older, the wiser; The older the person is, the more seasoned (wiser or more treacherous) they are., the younger one can’t play with the older one: “Madam, I understand, I’ll keep a close eye on his every move11一舉一動 (yī jǔ yī dòng): each and every move; every single action; every movement; every act and every move; whole behaviour; one’s every action..”
Duan Qiuhui said: “Um, report back to me if there’s anything else.”
Sister Jiao said it should be, and continued to keep an eye on Shen Yuhan.
On this day, half of the yellow hair on Shen Yuhan’s head was cut off, leaving only the black hair, which looked much fresher and more pleasing to the eye.
The hairdresser named Tang Ni also advised him on how to take care of his hair, after washing his hair, he should blow dry it, when going out, he could use hairspray to hold it in place to prevent it from being messed up by the wind, Shen Yuhan had no experience in taking care of short hair, so he was stunned for a while.
This hairdresser named Tang Ni doesn’t like to make orchid fingers gesture, but when he speaks, he is very gentle and a little coy, every sentence contains the word ‘Oh~’, it is quite special, also like a ger.
–
After a few days of having short hair, at first it was hard to get used to not having smooth long hair, but now that he realized the convenience of washing his hair and taking a bath, he began to get used to it, finally, he no longer had to sit in front of the window with his hair down at night and pray to the moon that his hair would dry soon.
He has very thick hair, and feels very sleepy every day, but if his hair is not dry, his momo will not let him rest, she always says that sleeping with damp hair can lead to headaches when you get older, he has always believed12深信不疑 (shēn xìn bù yí): to firmly believe without any doubt; absolute certainty about sth; believe without a shadow of doubt; have deep-seated faith (in). this.
It’s better now, most people have short hair, it wouldn’t be too abrupt if he didn’t have long hair, but he still wasn’t used to losing his long black hair.
–
On the fourth day, Shen Yuhan was still watching TV, but now he had learned to distinguish which content was real, which ones are just widely publicized shopping news, and which ones are dramas presented by people through performances.
He fixed the TV station on the real-life news channel, at least in the past few days, he has learned that there is no emperor in this world, only the President, one can always see leaders of this country often going to the countryside to visit poor households, give them food, drinks, money, and seeds, everyone is well-fed and had warm clothing, the people inside are very grateful to the country, Shen Yuhan looked at these news, and also had hope in his heart, if he was driven out one day, and became a homeless person, he should be able to be taken in, it is said in the news that not only the human being, and even the small animals have temporary shelters.
It was the worst situation he could think of, and he hopes it won’t happen.
One more day of watching TV and learning more about the outside world, through the TV program, he learns that Sister Jiao’s small box is called a mobile phone.
That night, he tentatively asked Sister Jiao where his mobile phone had gone, Sister Jiao immediately said that his mobile phone had fallen into the water and was broken.
Shen Yuhan guessed that the Third Madam had instructed her not to give him a mobile phone, ‘Shen Yuhan’ is a person with a ‘criminal record’, he is interested in the Third Madam’s son, it is estimated that she doesn’t want ‘Shen Yuhan’ to contact her son.
After weighing his options, he gave up the idea of getting a mobile phone, because he wouldn’t be able to use the phone once he gets it, which actually increases the possibility of him revealing that he is too different from his original self.
His current changes can also be explained by the fact that he has changed his temperament due to the shock of the drowning, but the fact that he can’t even use his mobile phone doesn’t make sense, and it’s easy for others to be suspicious of him.
–
On the fifth day, someone came to the door again, but this time, it was a woman, dressed very beautifully and sexily, she drove here alone, her purpose was to explain to Shen Yuhan what needed to be done at the venue the day after tomorrow, which is mainly divided into several parts.
The young lady named He spoke a little strangely, moreover, she had been looking at Shen Yuhan vaguely, her words were hinting at something, but the meaning was unclear.
“Mr. Shen, the purpose of my coming here has been made clear, just to confirm the wedding process with you and Qihuan, I’m the special master of ceremonies at your wedding ceremony, and Qihuan is my college classmate.” She specifically emphasized her relationship with Shan Qihuan.
“Oh.” Shen Yuhan had not yet learned about the education situation here, so he acted indifferently.
However, the information that came out was that she was acquainted with Shan Qihuan.
Miss He said: “I have made an appointment with Qihuan, I’ll explain the situation to you later, if there is anything that needs to be modified, just let me know.”
After she finished speaking, she took out an ultra-thin mobile phone and dialed the number of the other groom-to-be.
A deep magnetic voice came through the mobile phone: “Hello.”
The smile on Miss He’s face deepened: “Qihuan, I’m He Min, I made an appointment with you last night to discuss the process of the day after tomorrow, are you busy now? Mr. Shen is beside me right now.”
“One moment.” Shan Qihuan on the other end seemed to be saying something to someone, and then the area around him became quiet, he said, “It’s okay now.”
Miss He quietly looked at Shen Yuhan’s expression, and found that he actually had no reaction at all, she could not help but feel a little discouraged.
At this time, Shen Yuhan’s ears were slightly warm, he heard his fiancé’s voice through a thin mobile phone.
His voice was different from Andy the tailor, and Tang Ni the barber, their voices were like fruit wine mixed with water, while the fiancé’s was like old wine buried underground, mellow and distinctive.
He thought, should he say hello to the other party?
But what kind of ger would take the initiative to do such a thing, he have to be more reserved, he is a respectable ger.
Have you ever seen Chinese TV ads? The one I’ve seen is so hilarious, and testing my 2nd hand embarrassment…
