Can you weakly ask for all kinds of support...

****cut on top****

Today is the first time Su Liuyuan has attended a family gathering in Su Mansion. It is indeed the first time since Su Liuyuan was born. Xiao Yuan said that before she came, Su Liuyuan had been living with a nanny that An Qumian brought with her when she got married. The nanny never let Su Liuyuan leave the yard. However, the nanny suddenly disappeared for unknown reasons, and only Xiao Yuan was left by Su Liuyuan's side. The two masters and servants were not welcomed by the Su family, so Su Liuyuan rarely came out to see people. So outsiders only knew that there was a talented lady named Liuqian in the Su family, who was also an expert at playing piano and dancing, but they never knew that the Su family had a concubine named Su Liuyuan, the fifth lady.

Being able to let Su Liuyuan go to the front yard today really made Xiao Yuan feel a little overwhelmed. When it came time to dress up, she was also in a panic, making mistakes one after another when putting on clothes. The helpless Su Liuyuan had to do it herself, including dressing, eyebrow drawing, and hair extensions. After a lot of fiddling, they finally got it done. Standing in front of the mirror, both master and servant were stunned.

"Miss... you are so beautiful like this..." After a while, Xiao Yuan murmured after coming back to his senses.

Su Liuyuan was also stunned and didn't know what to think. The girl in front of the mirror has eyebrows like distant mountains, distant and peaceful. Lips are like peach blossoms in March, soft and beautiful. Su Liuyuan's face is not the kind of stunning beauty, but an extremely attractive type. The figure is not as perfect as Su Mingyu, Su Mingzhu and the others. After coming here for so long, Su Liuyuan’s aunt has not come even once. When I asked Xiao Yuan, I found out that Su Liuyuan has never even had menarche. No wonder she still looks like A yellow-haired girl. So Su Liuyuan chose a goose-yellow skirt, which made her look more delicate.

"Let's go, don't keep them waiting." Su Liuyuan retracted her gaze and said to Xiao Yuan.

After going out, Ana Shen was already waiting there. His status was not suitable for meeting too many people, so he stayed. When he saw the dressed-up Su Liuyuan, he stood there stupidly looking at her. When Xiao Yuan saw it, he sneered and said, "I knew my sister would be surprised! Look, our lady is actually a sign person!" There was pride in his words, as if Su Liuyuan was his sister.

Xiaoyan lowered her head when she heard this and said quietly: "Miss, Miss is very beautiful today..."

Su Liuyuan nodded slightly and said, "Have you remembered all of today's homework?"

As soon as Xiaoyan heard the homework, he immediately looked like a victorious rooster, held his head high and answered loudly: "Miss, Xiaoyan has remembered everything clearly!"

Su Liuyuan smiled and said nothing, then walked out.

When Su Liuyuan and Xiao Yuan came to the front hall, several young masters and daughters of the Su family had already arrived. She and Xiao Yuan stood quietly behind everyone, as low-key as possible. Just as he regained his footing, a deep voice came: "Where is Liuyuan? Why hasn't she come yet?"

The originally silent hall suddenly became noisy. Come to think of it, who would think that the eldest lady Su Liuyuan was really from this house? Xiao Yuan on the side tugged on his sleeves, and Su Liuyuan couldn't help but frown. Listening to the voice just now, it should be the master of Su Mansion, Prime Minister Su. Although she was extremely reluctant to come out, she had no choice but to stand up straight, take a step forward, and replied in a calm voice: "Father, Liuyuan is here."

After Su Liuyuan finished speaking, everyone who was whispering suddenly became quiet, and all kinds of eyes scanned her. Su Liuyuan straightened her body and stood there with a calm expression, as if there was no one else in the world, stubborn and independent.

"Fifth sister!" A voice shouted from outside the door. When she saw clearly again, a white figure had floated to the hall.

Su Liuyuan raised his eyes and saw that it was Su Huanqing, his eldest brother. Then he smiled slowly and said, "It turns out to be the eldest brother."

Su Huanqing looked Su Liuyuan up and down and admired her outfit: "Fifth sister is very special today."

Su Liuyuan was noncommittal. However, another voice intervened in front of the hall: "Dad, this is our family's gathering, but the fifth sister only wore light makeup. This is obviously disrespectful to dad and our ancestors!"

Su Liuyuan was surprised. She didn't do anything, she just put on less foundation containing white lead. I glanced at the other women in the hall, and I was speechless. They all looked like Bai Wuchang. I really don't know what the aesthetics of this time and space are like. And she was criticized so seriously by Su Mingyu for this. How much did she hate herself

"Third sister, don't talk nonsense!" Su Huanqing frowned and scolded lightly.

"Brother! You are the one who protects her the most!" Su Mingyu stomped her feet, bit her lower lip, and glared at Su Liuyuan.

"Yu'er!" The one who scolded Su Mingyu this time was Ruan, the hostess of the Su Mansion, who was sitting in the seat. Her voice was majestic and could not be resisted. However, if you listen carefully to this scolding, it sounded like a hint of petting.

Su Mingyu was scolded by her mother and turned her head angrily. After some tossing, Su Shirong finally looked seriously at his fifth daughter, Su Liuyuan. In the impression, my fifth daughter always looked at outsiders with timid eyes, and even spoke in a soft voice, just like her unlucky mother. Su Shirong thought of An Qumian and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. An was once a beautiful lady! Thinking of the romance he had with her, Su Shirong couldn't help but sigh and said, "Okay, just come."

Su Mingyu didn't expect that her father, who had always loved her, would no longer help her. She frowned even more and directed her resentment towards Su Liuyuan.

Su Mingzhu, who had been sitting upright on the side, looked at everyone with a pair of smart eyes. At this time, she couldn't help but smile and said: "What my father said is true. It's just as long as the fifth sister is here. The whole family can meet, so why bother worrying about trivial matters." ?”

The gentle words immediately relaxed the nervousness of everyone on the court, and Su Liuyuan couldn't help but look at Su Mingzhu again. Today, Su Mingyu and Su Mingzhu are both wearing the most popular pleated fringed long skirts. However, there is a jade-containing golden walking stick in Su Mingzhu's hair. At first glance, it is even more charming.

"Zhu'er is right, Yu'er, didn't I tell you? Learn from your sister and stand with a proper posture. Look at you like this. If there are outsiders, won't you lose the face of our Prime Minister's Mansion? "Ruan was very satisfied with Su Mingzhu's words, but she was extremely helpless towards Su Mingyu.

Su Liuyuan lowered her eyes, these three mothers and daughters really knew how to act. One plays the good role, the other plays the bad role, and the other one looks on and stabs them with a knife from time to time.

"Father, do you have anything to tell me today?" Su Huanqing didn't seem to want to see the next plot, so she had to change the subject and asked.

When mentioning this matter, Su Shirong's brows couldn't help but widen, his expression was joyful, and he said loudly: "In three days, there will be a flower viewing party in the palace that is held every five years. Ministers of third rank and above can bring their families to participate."

"Dad, we all know this." Su Mingyu was obviously looking forward to this flower viewing party. Although she said so, her expression and excited voice revealed her thoughts.

Su Mingzhu also nodded and said, "Sister, what I'm saying is, dad, are there any changes this year?"

Su Shirong nodded slightly. The flower appreciation party was obviously for flower appreciation, but in fact it was to recruit talents for several princes in the palace. Of course, because the gathering was mostly attended by young gentlemen and daughters, over time, several good stories were created. Many young ladies raised in their boudoirs looked forward to one day participating in the flower viewing party and finding their own marriage. Su Mingyu and Su Mingzhu just got haircut this year. Five years ago, Su Liuqian was favored by the emperor because she won the first prize at the flower viewing party and was promoted to Concubine Qian. Therefore, it is normal for Su Mingyu and Su Mingzhu to look forward to it.

"The changes are not big, but the third prince asked your fifth sister to participate!" Su Shirong looked directly at Su Liuyuan with inquiring eyes.
