You could tell who rank higher in society of that era by the interaction between Madam Chen vs Madam Lin, how Madam Chen repeatedly putting down Madam Lin and reminding her that her family is just a merchant family.

I think you got it wrong, it is the other way around. Merchant families were considered the lowest rank in ancient China. The Lin family opposing the marriage is more likely got to do with Yixiu's mother being a convicted murderer than them looking down on Lou family status.

That's part of the main plot, he prioritize power over love. Her so called brother is trying to expose his wrong doing which put his whole family in jeopardy, of course, he will has to get rid of her brother.

"In ancient China, starting in the Qin Dynasty (221 to 206 BCE), Chinese currency developed with the introduction of standardized coins that allowed easier trade across China, and led to development of letters of credit.

It's called "supporting". He know that's what she really want and will do it anyway.

I want you to create your own story and show.

He wasn't exactly got bullied. ZhuZan's father took in and he stole from them, basically, he got punished.

But then since he's not being formal, "You, with the last name Jun" or "Hey you, with the last name Jun" is more direct translation. The way Childe Ning address her is more direct translation of "Miss Jun".

To translate literally, he called her "Last name Jun" or "The one with last name Jun", so you could say he is calling her "Miss Jun".

You probably meant weak. He is weak but definitely not coward.

I agreed. To Arie2018, not sure if we watch the same show. I found the actress playing the part of Xiao Zhou acted very well. To me, she definitely exuded the beauty and charm and this coming from a man prospective.
