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

One night, Sheng Hong, the head of the Sheng family, was resting in Weiruixuan. He had a few drinks and talked about the hot topics in Bianjing recently.

Han Ming discusses marriage!

The eldest lady had a strange look on her face: "I heard that this young Mr. Han has a very good relationship with the eldest daughter of the Yu family."

"At the polo match some time ago, Ming Yatou teamed up with him just to help others."

"How come after just a few days, Brother Han has already changed his mind and fallen for Miss Yu San? It's really strange."

Sheng Hong scoffed and rolled his eyes: "What's so strange about that? Miss Yu lost her mother when she was young, and now her stepmother looks down on her."

"This time, they say the Han family has chosen Miss Yu San. I'm afraid that this black-hearted person is trying to replace Miss Yu San with someone else and disgust the Han family!"

"Let me tell you, Jingyuan and Miss Yu were already engaged as children, but it was arranged when Madam Fan was still alive."

"After Madam Fan passed away, this marriage was suppressed by Madam Stepmother, who even interfered several times..."

Wang Ruofu looked at Sheng Hong in surprise, wondering how her husband knew so many secrets about other people's families.

"Hic! Don't look at me. Jingyuan just mentioned this when he came home last time and told me about tomorrow's events."

"I can't believe that a legitimate daughter lives a life worse than a concubine's. How pathetic! So pathetic!"

Sheng Hong didn't know what sad thing he was thinking about, and he kept drinking.

It's true that after drinking a few cups of horse urine, everything comes out.

Wang Ruofu narrowed her eyes and looked at the dizzy Sheng Hong with a thoughtful look.

The next day, Wang Ruofu told this matter to her personal maid Liu Mama and the fifth girl Rulan as gossip while chatting casually.

Mother Liu is an old hand who can control her mouth, but Rulan is not. This silly and simple-minded girl talked about this matter with her maid in a somewhat annoyed manner.

As the saying goes, like master, like servant. Rulan is a silly girl who can't control her mouth, and so is her maid.

This matter was then heard by the servants in the outer courtyard. When they went out to purchase supplies, they met an old acquaintance and started chatting about the latest hot topic in Bianjing City - Han Ming's marriage proposal.

Then the servant told the gossip in a very pretentious manner, and his tail was lifted up to the sky in the amazed and admiring eyes of the people around him.

I know this secret, but you don't. Doesn't this make me look really awesome?

In order to create more dramatic conflict, they exaggerated the situation and scared the relay runners.

Later, when the news spread, it became a tragic story of "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" in the style of the Song Dynasty.

What about the stepmother who forced a good woman into prostitution, replaced her with a woman, and let her own daughter marry into the prime minister's house and enjoy all the glory.

The eldest daughter was persecuted and made to live in dire straits. She could be bullied by anyone and had to eat pig food and live in a horse stable.

Han Ming suddenly turned into a devoted man, constantly attacking the Yu family, a den of jackals and tigers, for love.

However, they were blocked by the black-hearted Yu couple, and they had no chance to meet and express their true feelings.

For a time, the story of Han Ming and Yu Yanran became a hot topic, providing many folk craftsmen with a space for creation.

It was not until later that Han Ming heard his own story on the overpass that he was speechless and shed tears, secretly admiring that the power of the masses was indeed great!

One day, as discussions throughout Bian Jing about Han Ming and Yu Yanhong's marriage became increasingly heated, a turning point came.

As expected, when the two versions of the story were riven by a huge split in the streets, Madam Han came to the Yu family in person, along with her household servants.

This time, the engagement letter was submitted very solemnly, indicating that the Han family wanted to marry Yu Yanran, the eldest daughter of the Yu family.

This made the Yu couple stunned and looked at Han Lu in confusion.

"Is there any misunderstanding between Lord Yu and Madam Yu?" Han Lu looked at the Yu couple with a smile.

"Misunderstanding? Madam Han, you are joking. Before this, the Han family had always seen Yanhong. How could this be a misunderstanding?" Madam Yu tried her best to keep smiling.

"That's exactly what Madam Yu said, but the whole of Bianjing knows that my Ming'er is after the eldest daughter of the Yu family. How come when it comes to you two, it becomes the third daughter of the Yu family that we're after?"

Han Lu still had a smile on her face, maintaining her identity and connotation.

"What you said is not right." Madam Yu's face darkened.

"Please give me some advice." Still smiling.

"The last time Yanhong and I visited the Han family, the old lady gave Yanhong a hairpin. You know what this means, right?"

Madam Yu curled the corner of her mouth with a hint of disdain, and said, "You are such a person, and you dare to play tricks on me."

Among the three books and six rituals in the Song Dynasty, one was choosing a daughter-in-law.

Generally, the man sends a relative or future mother-in-law to the woman's house to take a look. If he likes the woman, he will insert a hairpin into her hat, which is called "inserting a hairpin."

If the man is not satisfied, he will leave one or two pieces of colorful silk to calm the woman down and at the same time convey a message to her that the matter is not going to work out.

"Oh~! So that's how it is! That's really a huge misunderstanding!" Mrs. Han sighed in a pretentious manner.

"Huh?!" Why did Madam Yu suddenly feel a little bit nervous?

"Here, I want to apologize to Lord Yu and Madam Yu."

"My old lady told me that Yanhong looks a lot like her when she was young, so she was so happy to see her that she couldn't help but give her a hairpin."

"But this is not the kind of custom we have when we discuss marriages. If you say so, how can we dare to give hairpins to others casually in the future?"

Mrs. Han looked bitter and resentful, feeling extremely wronged. The handkerchief in her hand fluttered in the wind, and one could feel her anxiety.

"You!" Madam Yu was so angry that she glared at him, but she had nothing to say. After all, if you really want to be picky, this is a customary convention, but it is not a must for marriage.

Moreover, according to custom, other people come to visit the wife at home and then insert the needle into the woman's hat.

But that day was at the Han family, and the hairpin was handed to Yanhong instead of being put on the hat.

"It's over. I've been tricked by the Han family! This time I'm so embarrassed!"

Madam Yu looked at Han Lu with a red face, only to see that she was still standing there with a delicate look, as if it was not them but the Yu family who was wrong.

Father Yu slammed the table, looked at Madam Yu with a sullen expression, and said gloomily, "This is all your fault!"

Then he just rolled up his sleeves and went back to the study without even trying to save face.

"Is the Han family bullying my Yu family because they have no one to rely on? My parents-in-law can still speak in front of the emperor!" Madam Yu still wanted to save some face.

Madam Han, however, just smiled faintly at her and said, "Madam, please don't lose your composure. Even if this matter is reported to the emperor, the emperor will have nothing to say."

"If you want to blame someone, blame those ignorant people who spread rumors in Bianjing City, making this nonsense sound like something real."

"It seems the government is too lenient, allowing some people to speak without restraint. In my opinion, these gossipers should be punished."

"Madam Yu, what do you say?"

A soft knife, a naked soft knife, she didn't feel that she was wrong at all. The ladies of the Han and Yu families just looked at each other with a fake smile and an awkward smile.

In the end, only Madam Yu gritted her teeth and accepted the engagement letter, and reluctantly sent away Han Lu, who looked very happy.

As expected, this matter was spread out without any surprise.

The whole community was in an uproar. No one expected that the situation would be reversed. As expected, no news is groundless.

"That storyteller from the brothel was right. Han Ming's marriage proposal was the result of a scheme."

"Mr. Han is such a gentle and refined person, how could he be interested in Miss Yu San, that hottie?"

"Humph, the stepmother of the Yu family is not a good person either. She is causing trouble and separating this pair of star-crossed lovers."

"In my opinion, Lord Yu is even less of a good person. He clearly knew about this matter, yet he was willing to facilitate it. He's an accomplice!"

"Yes, what the elder brothers said makes sense, and I think so too."

"..."

"Brother? You are not from our table, are you?" A middle-aged man blinked and looked at Han Ming.

"Hey, big brother, you can't say that. As the saying goes, all men are brothers. I was deeply touched by the righteous words you just spoke."

"Let's toast to the fact that the Song Dynasty has righteous people like you!"

Han Ming casually picked up the bowl and toasted a few passers-by.

Those people had never received such flattery before. After drinking a few cups of horse urine, they immediately became brothers with Han Ming and started to get close to him.

For a moment, I felt that what I was drinking was not ordinary wine, but the blood of justice spoken out for justice.

Watching his brother wandering among the crowd in the brothels, constantly giving people thumbs up and cheering them on, Yong Zeng turned his head away, as if saying "I don't know him".

And the story of "a hairpin causing misunderstanding" is far from over.
