This guy is still clinging to the so-called honor system of the Victorian era, and as a result, he is out of tune with society, out of tune with his wife, and he dares not resist. In the face of his wife's derailment and rumors, he remained silent and didn't even bother to make an excuse. When his friend's filthy things were planted on his head, he did not say a word; his friend won a lord because of the report he helped to do, and he did not fight for himself.
His wife is not a bad person, and she also knows that her husband is a good person and the last noble, but she can't stand his behavior and feels that she is very pretentious. And the male protagonist fell in love with Miss Winnup, but he was so polite and did not dare to go beyond it.
The male protagonist is like a feudal guardian. Although he is a good man and talented, he is different everywhere and goes against society everywhere.
I'm worried that if the plot continues, he will become a victim of the old times.
