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

"...Young Master, as a man, you don't understand the suffering of being a woman. We are not as good as men in paying the price, and we are often ruined..."

Minglan was a little hesitant to tell everything clearly, simply because she was afraid that outsiders would gossip about her and damage her reputation, bringing shame to the Sheng family.

In the end, Hualan, whose life has finally improved, and Molan and Rulan, who are about to get married, may become even more unfortunate.

His father and brother may also be held accountable by the censor, and An's future will be ruined if he fails to educate his family properly.

But Qi Heng still insisted on his own opinion, thinking that he was different and would never let her down.

"I, I would never do this to you..."

He seemed to feel that this statement was not convincing enough and quickly raised his hand.

"I swear, I swear in front of your mother's ancestral tablet, that if anything were to happen today, I would immediately report it to my parents and welcome you into my family. This would silence Youyou."

Qi Heng's oath made Minglan feel even more confused and entangled. She couldn't make sense of this man at all.

"Women are like poor people in the countryside. They only have a handful of rice. If they lose a grain, it means they will die. But you men are like wealthy families. You can afford to spend even a hundred taels of silver."

"Now, I just want to live a peaceful life and fulfill my biological mother's wish."

"From now on, don't come looking for me. Even if you run into me, don't talk. If you must talk, let my second brother do it for you."

Minglan said it all, and of course she also hoped that Qi Heng could live a good life and stop thinking about her.

Qi Heng pursed his lips and said firmly, "Then can't I welcome you into the family?"

Minglan had no choice but to increase the intensity and bring out Princess Pingning, because she also wanted to see how determined Qi Heng was.

He even said that your son, the legitimate son of the Duke of Qi, was marrying the concubine's daughter of a fifth-rank official, which would harm himself.

"I don't believe what you say. You've lied to me so often. I don't want anyone but you in this life!"

Minglan looked straight at Qi Yuanruo and said, "I swore in front of my biological mother that I would rather be a peasant wife than a concubine in a noble house."

"Young Master, you'd better give up this idea as soon as possible!"

"Who wants you to be a concubine? I want to marry you and make you my first wife!" Qi Heng expressed his feelings directly.

"What?!" Minglan looked at him in surprise.

"I will definitely ask for Mother's consent and have her go to your house to propose marriage. We'll write the family tree, go to the ancestral hall, perform the three books and six ceremonies, and then enter the house in a sedan chair!"

The greater Qi Heng's determination at this moment, the greater the pain that will be waiting for him when it is broken one day.

His self-righteous firmness and loyalty seemed extremely fragile in the face of so-called power, interests and threats.

In the quiet nights of many years to come, when Qi Heng looks back on the past and remembers the vows and promises he made today, will he hate his younger self for being so weak?

Or maybe I keep laughing at my younger self for being too naive and unable to see clearly the world and the human world.

Or maybe you have learned to look forward and not look back.

"I don't want to lie to myself, and I hope you don't lie to yourself either." Minglan clutched her dress tightly with both hands.

"Even if I deceive myself, it has nothing to do with you. Why don't you want to?"

Minglan looked at Qi Heng helplessly, then turned around and squatted down to pack up the things for burning incense without saying a word.

"You still have me in your heart, you just don't dare to admit it, you little liar!" Qi Heng smiled faintly and turned away.

And with no one seeing, Minglan raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

Qi Heng's words completely ended the meeting, but at this moment, both of them already understood their position in each other's hearts. As for the future, perhaps no one was willing to imagine it for the time being.

. . . . . .

The two of them expressed their feelings to each other, and the Han family on the other side also began to get lively.

The eldest lady of the Han family was in charge personally, and several aunts from the Han family's side branches, and even Han Ming's aunt Wang Han, returned to the main house to discuss a set of rules together.

That is the marriage of Han Ming, the eldest grandson of the Han family.

Speaking of this matter, Madam Han had already sent a matchmaker to visit the Yu family, but she did not specify which girl in the Yu family she wanted to discuss marriage with.

This made Mrs. Yu feel a little suspicious.

It was not any other thoughts, but he wanted to try to promote his own daughter, Yu Yanhong, the third daughter of the Yu family.

Although she knew that this was impossible, the Han family did not say which girl they wanted to marry, so why couldn't Yu Yanhong participate?

They are all from the families of prime ministers, and the Yu family is not inferior to the Han family. The only difference is that the old Grand Tutor Yu has retired, while the Grand Chancellor Han is the most popular minister.

So when Madam Yu had this idea, she started to do all kinds of evil and tried to play tricks of replacing one thing with another and replacing the prince with a cat.

But is the Han family's eldest lady a vegetarian? She deliberately sent the matchmaker to muddy the waters.

A few days later, Han Lu brought her sister-in-law Wang Han and a lot of betrothal gifts to the Yu family.

Madam Yu was scheming at the time and asked Yu Yanhong to accompany her without notifying Yu Yanran.

As a result, during the first formal marriage discussion, both parties pretended to be unaware of the situation and started the discussion without anyone present.

When Madam Yu saw all kinds of precious betrothal gifts, she was overjoyed and accepted them all.

"Madam Yu, this is the list of betrothal gifts. Please take a look."

While Madam Han and Madam Yu were chatting happily, Wang Han handed over a gift list.

Madam Yu smiled slightly and said, "You're welcome. The Grand Master's family will not be wrong."

He didn't even look at it and handed it to the maid, who put it on the betrothal gifts and left it alone.

In a place where no one could see, Han Lu and Wang Han, the sister-in-law and sister-in-law, secretly smiled at each other.

The two sides chatted until Lord Yu came home from the morning court. After exchanging brief greetings, Madam Han and Wang Han left the Yu family.

In the inner room of the Yu family, the couple looked at all kinds of treasures with a hint of greed on their faces and in their eyes.

"The Han family doesn't seem to have made it clear who they want to marry, so why not..." Madam Yu whispered to her husband.

"You want Yanhong to replace Yanran?!" Father Yu looked at the lady in surprise.

"After all, the Han family is a prominent family in the current dynasty and is highly regarded by the government. Rather than letting Yanran go through this unclear process, it would be better to let Yanhong marry into the family."

"They are all legitimate daughters of the Yu family. Could it be that the Han family still has objections?"

"Besides, sir, look, this is a real treasure. We might as well..." Madam Yu said in a bewitching tone.

"Isn't this bad?" Yu's father was also a weak-willed person.

"Then let's try it first. In the end, we have to see what the Han family thinks." Father Yu said with a happy smile, holding an inkstone.

"Okay, then sir, please wait for my good news." Madam Yu smiled.

For a period of time afterwards, Madam Yu often took Yu Yanhong to the Han family to visit Madam Han and Old Lady Han.

They were busy and happy for a while, and in the eyes of Madam Yu, the two female housekeepers of the Han family seemed to like Yu Yanhong more and more.

Even Old Lady Han was going to give Yu Yanhong a hairpin, which in marriage customs meant confirming the marriage.

Madam Yu and Yu Yanhong were very happy, and even Yu's father was very pleased.

Everyone thought that Han Ming and Yu Yanhong were married. In order to finalize the marriage, Madam Yu was so clever that she announced in Bianjing City that the Han family was planning to marry Yu Yanhong, the third daughter of the Yu family.

This frightened Han Ming's friends, who kept asking if he was crazy and why he was attracted to a hottie like Miss Yu San.

Han Ming just smiled faintly and didn't explain.

As for Sheng Changbai and Gu Tingye, they felt that this guy was definitely up to no good and the Yu family was probably in trouble.

In Prince Yong's mansion, Princess Jiacheng was enjoying some snacks from the palace. When she heard this, she was so frightened that she almost choked. She only recovered after the maid brought her some tea.

"Did you hear correctly? The young master of the Han family is going to marry Miss Yu San?" Princess Jiacheng didn't know what expression she had on her face. Was she shocked? Puzzled? Or was she angry?

Anyway, I just think this is too weird.

"Yes, that's what people say. It is said that both Old Lady Han and the eldest lady of the Han family fell in love with the third daughter of the Yu family at the same time." The maid said cautiously.

"The Third Miss of the Yu Family? The Third Miss of the Yu Family who was publicly humiliated by the Young Master of the Han Family at the polo match hosted by Madam Wu at the Yongchang Marquis's residence?"

Princess Jiacheng wondered if she had heard it wrong.

"Yes, Lady, it's Miss Yu San..." The maid also realized how illogical her words were.

"Interesting, very interesting? What on earth is this Han family... no, this young Han Xianggong planning?"

Princess Jiacheng gently waved her round fan and watched the colorful butterflies dancing in the garden.

In the Mucangzhai of the Sheng family, Sheng Minglan finally avoided being wrongly accused by Linqige thanks to a series of operations by Han Ming.

Lin Qinshuang and Sheng Molan originally wanted to sue Minglan for having an affair with a man outside her family, but they were scolded by Sheng Hong.

"Young Master Han came personally to offer his thanks, saying that Ming had protected his fiancée. That's a good thing, but how did you guys start calling it a secret affair?"

"I think you guys just don't see things clearly. You're confused! So confused!"

"Why, do you want the Sheng family to be accused of lax parenting?!"

Madam Wang Ruofu and Minglan knew all of Sheng Hong's criticisms. Wang Ruofu looked as if she was laughing at the joke. As long as Lin Qige was uncomfortable, she would be comfortable.

As for Minglan, she was completely blind and had no idea what tricks that "Little Han Husband" was playing.

It was not until he met his second brother Sheng Changbai that he learned that Han Ming, for Minglan's sake, went to his father in person to talk things over and put an end to the matter.

This made Minglan blink her eyes widely, not knowing what to say.

He wanted to thank her, but Sheng Changbai stopped him and said, "No need to thank me. That guy evened it out by eating a meal at home."

This made Minglan laugh and cry, so she had to calm down and manage the inner courtyard well.

Just after the Sheng family had been quiet for a few days, news came that Han Ming was getting married, which scared Sheng Minglan silly.

"Silly Xiaotao, you heard it right. The person that Brother Han wants to marry is not Yanran?" Minglan asked, grabbing the breathless Xiaotao.

"Miss, I heard it for real. The eldest lady of the Yu family said that both the old lady and the eldest lady of the Han family were interested in the third lady Yu, and she didn't mention the eldest lady Yu at all."

"Ah, this?!" Minglan was dumbfounded. Why was Han Ming acting so strangely and not online?

"What's going on here?" Minglan knew that Han Ming was definitely not that kind of playboy. It would be fine if he was just playing around, but there must be something wrong here.

"Which trick? Girl, I think none of the tricks will work. I've already said it, it can't be aimless, right?" Xiao Tao answered while drinking water.

"When something is out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on. Besides, this brother of the Han family is a very scheming and cunning person. This matter is definitely not that simple."

Minglan's analysis was certainly correct. How could Han Ming be such an unreliable person?

But Yu Yanran had no idea. She just felt like the sky was falling and cried bitterly in Old Madam Yu's arms, which made the old tutor and his wife very distressed.

I wanted to blame Han Ming, but this guy just stayed in the Hanlin Academy and refused to come out. He stayed overnight in the imperial city every day to sort out various documents.

Old Master Yu went to ask about his son and daughter-in-law again, but the two of them deceived the old master and lied to him, saying that the Han family had their eyes on Yu Yanhong.

She even took out the hairpin given by the old lady of the Han family to prove that the marriage was a done deal and there was no chance of escape.

Yu Yanran fell ill due to depression, which made Han Ming feel very distressed, but when he thought of the vicious couple in the Han family, he held back.
