After traveling through time, I became Han Zhang’s grandson?

Chapter 4: A Story Caused by a Handkerchief

"Brother Ming, it's been a long time since we last met." Old Mrs. Yu looked at the tall and handsome Han Ming and smiled kindly.

"Is the old lady still in good health?" Han Ming asked with a fist salute.

"That's fine...it's just that my girl Yanran is always thinking about her brother Jingyuan." When Mrs. Yu said this, Yu Yanran, who was hiding in the corridor and eavesdropping, blushed and looked at Sheng Minglan, who was full of gossip, at a loss.

The old lady of the Sheng family in the hall laughed and looked at the young man with a smile.

Wang Ruofu and Sheng Molan on the side froze in expression, staring at Han Ming with burning eyes, wanting to see how he would answer.

Han Ming casually waved his sleeves, pondered for a moment, and said, "I'm afraid Sister Yanran has long forgotten me as her brother and feels a little estranged."

As soon as these words were spoken, Yu Yanran, who was hiding, looked gloomy, and her white teeth unconsciously bit her lower lip.

"What are you talking about, Ming'er? Yanran is not that kind of person." Old Mrs. Yu defended herself in confusion.

"Oh, then I must have misunderstood Sister Yanran. However, I would occasionally write her some personal letters in the past few years, but there has been no news from her. Why is that?"

Hearing Han Ming's slightly dissatisfied tone, Old Lady Yu knew that something was wrong. The Yu family in Bian Jing was now managed by Yu Yanran's stepmother, Yu Fang.

Madam Yu has always been harsh towards her eldest daughter Yu Yanran. I'm afraid those letters were withheld by this Yu Fang.

How could Han Ming not know the difficult situation of his sister Yanran, but he was not qualified to speak up for her now. He could only use this roundabout way, seemingly blaming Yu Yanran, but actually speaking up for her and telling Yu Fangshi off.

"I'm afraid it was the wicked servant at home who took it upon himself to withhold Ming'er's letter. I will investigate it thoroughly after returning home."

Knowing that Han Ming was speaking up for her granddaughter, Mrs. Yu's eyes softened and she looked at him with admiration.

"If that's the case, then it would be good. Unfortunately, the evil slave is at home, deceiving his superiors and hiding the truth from his subordinates. I'm afraid it will be difficult to investigate!" Han Ming took advantage of the situation and secretly mocked Yu Fangshi as the evil slave.

For a moment, the scene was quiet, and everyone couldn't help but look at Han Ming in surprise. This kid is quite mean!

In the corridor, Sheng Minglan and Yu Yanran were whispering to each other. It seemed that the Sixth Miss was teasing the other one.

"Look, Brother Han is trying to help you in a roundabout way!" Sheng Minglan laughed softly.

"Yeah, Brother Jingyuan is still so upright." Yu Yanran smiled sweetly, looking very happy.

"I heard from your grandmother that she wants to find a good marriage for you. It seems that she has chosen the young man from the Han family!" Sheng Minglan said sweetly in Yu Yanran's ear.

"No way! Minglan, don't talk nonsense!" Yu Yanran blushed and scratched Sheng Minglan's waist. The two of them started playing around in the corridor for a while.

"Haha, looking at you like this, I'm afraid you have already fallen in love with me!" Sheng Minglan giggled non-stop when she was tickled, but she just didn't let go and kept teasing Yu Yanran.

"How can you be so out of touch!" Yu Yanran pretended to be angry and poked Sheng Minglan's smooth white forehead with her finger.

"If you say one more word, I'll tell Brother Changbai and let him laugh at you for being shameless!"

Seeing Yu Yanran's pretty face like a blazing cloud, Sheng Minglan stopped talking and chuckled: "I think Sister Yanran is feeling amorous and thinking about love!"

"Sheng Minglan~!" Yu Yanran could no longer bear such teasing. She called out softly and buried her head in her knees. No matter how Sheng Minglan called her, she would not look up.

The silence in the hall did not last long. As Qi Heng returned from outside and whispered something in Sheng Hong's ear, the whole hall became lively again.

It turned out that Qi Heng's handkerchief was lost. In order to avoid any mess in the future, he made the matter clear.

As a result, Sheng Hong had no choice but to order all his servants to go and look for her, while only Han Ming and Sheng Molan sat still.

But the two had different expressions. Sheng Molan looked worried and nervous, while Han Ming smiled faintly, his eyes unconsciously sweeping over Molan.

"Don't worry, you don't know where it fell. Sit down and wait for a while!" Han Ming stood up and pulled Qi Heng over, letting him sit down with peace of mind.

"Wait a moment!" Sheng Changbai also comforted Qi Heng.

Meanwhile, in the corridor, Yu Yanran, who had recovered her spirits, took the tray of snacks handed to her by the servant and said with a smile, "Your rose shortbread is always delicious."

The maid Suqin who was waiting on the side chuckled softly and said, "Our Sixth Miss also likes to eat this. The old lady specially ordered the kitchen to make it. Miss, please do me a favor and eat more."

"Then you have to eat more. Here, give it to me!" Yu Yanran nodded slightly, took a piece from the plate and handed it to Minglan with a smile.

After Sheng Minglan took it, she was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing.

Then Yu Yanran gave one piece to her own maid and Minglan's maid Xiaotao.

"Here, try them all."

"Thank you, Miss!" Xiaotao and the other one took it with a smile and tasted it with relish.

The young master Qi Heng in the hall looked around and saw Sheng Minglan and Yu Yanran eating rose cakes with a smile in the corridor. He couldn't help but reach out and take a piece from the table on the side. He took a look at it, tasted it with a smile, and it seemed to be extremely delicious.

Just as the servant who served the tea and snacks was leaving, Sheng Molan called a maid, who was Suqin who had just been chatting with Yu Yanran.

Then, without anyone noticing, she quietly stuffed Qi Heng's handkerchief into Suqin's body. Han Ming saw all of this clearly and couldn't help but sneer.

Meanwhile, in the corridor, the maid of the old lady of the Sheng family was whispering in Sheng Minglan's ear, "You two should go back to the house first. It's going to be noisy here for a while!"

After the message was delivered, the old lady left, and Sheng Minglan said to Yu Yanran with a worried look on her face: "You seem to have a lot of things to do, why don't you go to my room and rest for a while! The old lady will call us when it's time for dinner."

Yu Yanran thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, then left the hall with Sheng Minglan.

Seeing Yu Yanran leaving the hall, Han Ming also pulled Sheng Changbai and Qi Heng away and followed her.

Qi Heng was happy to see this happen. He originally wanted to get closer to Sheng Minglan, the sixth sister of the Sheng family. Seeing Han Ming taking the initiative to pull him, he just let it go.

Only Sheng Changbai followed out with a puzzled look on his face, asking in confusion why.

"I'll take you to see something fun." Han Ming smiled mysteriously, found a servant at random, asked about Suqin's whereabouts, and took Qi Heng and Sheng Changbai to block them.

On the way back to Sheng Minglan's house, Yu Yanran took Minglan's hand and asked with a puzzled look on her face.

"Young Master has always been afraid of troubling others, but now he is mobilizing so many troops. It's really strange."

Sheng Minglan thought for a moment and whispered, "Because the handkerchief is something close to my body. Even if I can't find it, I have to make it known. Otherwise, if something happens in the future, I may not be able to explain it clearly."

After hearing Minglan's analysis, Yu Yanran suddenly realized the truth and exclaimed in amazement: "Young Master is really thoughtful."

Sheng Minglan nodded in agreement: "He has always done things very meticulously, but I have always felt something was wrong..."

"How can I not blame you!" A gentle smile came from the side, and Han Ming was seen standing there with Qi Heng, while Sheng Changbai had disappeared.

Under the astonished gaze of the two women, Han Ming was still waving a handkerchief in one hand. Judging from its condition, it was probably the handkerchief that Qi Heng had lost.
