You have? You're familiar with the gentry then?

[It would explain how the man seems to know how to approach him. Huaisang doesn't think he's done anything in particular to advertise his station but now that he thinks about it, he supposes his unfamiliarity with this kind of work gives it away. And well, he has been talking somewhat freely about his life at home to pass the time.]

Are there a lot of different people here then? H-How do you talk to them? I don't talk much to people who aren't like me so I don't know any of the usual customs people have. I'm not sure how to address others by rank.

[Hierarchy is important where he comes from and shy, nervous boy that Huaisang is, he stumbles easily sometimes when he socializes, with girls in particular. He doesn't wish to offend but from what he's observed, others seems to do things differently than he does.]
