Quick Wear: I am a good female supporting role

Although it was evening, the afterglow of summer was still somewhat warm. The lotus flowers in the Shangshu Mansion's lotus pond were in full bloom, and only a few small dragonflies could be heard buzzing above them. The maid Qingye picked the straight lotus flowers, and the faint fragrance of lotus flowers could still be smelled in the air.

"Miss." Qingye handed the lotus to Zuo Lingruo.

"Well done." She planned to make lotus tea for the old lady.

When the lotus first blooms in summer, it closes in the evening and opens in the morning. Use a small gauze net to pick up a few leaves and place them on the heart of the lotus flower. Take them out tomorrow morning and soak them in spring water. The fragrance is especially unique.

The old lady loves drinking tea, and Zuo Lingruo is also willing to put some effort into it.

Zhao Yusong, who came to the Shangshu Mansion looking for Zuo Cangming, happened to see Zuo Lingruo holding a lotus and sniffing it gently.

The girl's face was full of innocence.

Zhao Yusong thought about it and decided to go forward.

"Miss Lingruo, my name is Zhao Yusong." He pretended to be polite.

"Oh, I recognize you. You are Miss Xuanhe's fiancé." Qingye said.

"I have cancelled my engagement with Miss Xuan He. Now, you are my future wife." Zhao Yusong looked at Zuo Lingruo lovingly. It must be said that he had a handsome face and was the type that would please young girls.

"Young Master Zhao." Zuo Lingruo blushed like a little girl.

Zhao Yusong's face lit up with joy. As expected, a girl who had stayed in a farm for so long was easy to deceive.

"I wonder if Miss Lingruo would like to accompany me for a stroll on the street tonight." Tonight is the summer solstice, the streets will be a little busier than usual, and men and women who have a crush on each other will stroll together to admire the moon.

In the past, Zhao Yusong was always with Zuo Xuanhe, but now that his engagement partner has changed, he invited her so quickly.

The original owner was so naive that she fell in love with him because of his care and tenderness, but now that Zuo Lingruo has taken over, it is still unclear who will win.

"Okay." She gave Zhao Yusong a faint smile. She had been back in the Zuo Mansion for some time and was well taken care of by the old lady. Now she was a pure and innocent girl in her prime.

This smile inexplicably aroused Zhao Yusong, causing him to couldn't help but smile slightly.

At the rockery, Zuo Xuanhe, who was on her way to look for Madam Zuo, happened to see this scene. Although she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, she also knew Zhao Yusong's plan, so she suppressed the discomfort in her heart.

But her maid felt a little unfair for her.

"Forget it, Xiaohong, I am not my mother's child now, so I have to be cautious." Zuo Xuanhe lowered his eyes.

On a moonlit night, there are three or two stars and the cicadas are chirping in the breeze.

The street was crowded with people. Zuo Lingruo and Zhao Yusong were walking side by side on the street, each of them having their own ulterior motives.

Suddenly I passed by a handmade jewelry stall. Although the materials were not expensive, the jewelry looked very delicate.

Zhao Yusong stopped, picked up the exquisite silver rabbit hairpin on the shelf, and placed it on Zuo Lingruo's head. "Very cute, it suits you very well."

"Really?" Zuo Lingruo looked up with stars in her eyes, then disappointed, "From childhood to adulthood, I have never received such exquisite jewelry."

Thinking of her past experiences, Zhao Yu let go and paused slightly, struggling internally.

But he suddenly thought of something and became firm again, "It will happen, it will happen in the future."

Zhao Yusong bought the hairpin and gently put it on her.

Zuo Lingruo smiled sincerely, "Thank you, Brother Zhao."

But there was no wavering in his heart. After all, everyone can act.

"Candied haws! Big, sweet candied haws." the candied haws vendor shouted.

Zuo Lingruo's eyes lit up and she pulled Zhao Yusong to the vendor.

"Boss, give me two strings of candied haws."

"Okay, girl." The vendor handed her a red candied haws wrapped in sugar, which still exuded an enticing aroma.

Zuo Lingruo stuffed one of the bunches into Zhao Yusong's hand. Zhao Yusong frowned slightly. He had never eaten anything outside before.

But in order to act more realistically, he still smiled gently and held the string of candied haws tightly.

Zuo Lingruo took a bite of the crispy and sweet hawthorn. The moment it entered her mouth, the hawthorn melted in her mouth and was very delicious.

"You eat too." She looked at Zhao Yusong with a charming smile, her eyes curved.

Zhao Yusong was attracted by her smile and took a bite.

Then my eyes lit up. It was sweet and delicious.

Mrs. Zhao was very strict with him and never allowed him to eat outside food, so he had never eaten candied haws. Zuo Xuanhe was a lady from a wealthy family, so naturally she didn't like the food sold by outside vendors.

Seeing Zuo Lingruo eating happily, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

But Zuo Lingruo suddenly felt lost. He noticed it and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Growing up, only my brother could eat Tanghulu. My father and mother only bought it for him and never for me."

"Every time I could only watch with envy as my brother finished eating, and occasionally he would leave a bite for his sister. As for me, I could only watch. I didn't understand why my brother and sister could eat Tanghulu."

She continued dejectedly, "Now I know that I am not their biological child at all."

The father and mother that Zuo Lingruo mentioned were naturally Father Li and Mother Li.

Zhao Yusong felt an inexplicable pain in his heart. The thing that he and Zuo Xuanhe disdained was the delicacy that the girl in front of him longed for.

"You can eat a lot of candied haws in the future. I will treat you well." At this moment, his words did have some sincerity.

"Really? At that time, my parents always said that I was unworthy and a cheap girl. I grew up to sacrifice my life for my brother. At that time, I was abused and made to do a lot of work. If I hadn't met my cousin before I was almost sold to a brothel, I don't know what would have happened to me."

Zuo Lingruo took a bite of the candied haws and choked up, "Why am I saying this? Now that I've been recognized as a member of the Shangshu Mansion, the past is over, and you've been so kind to me... Thank you so much, I thought you would be angry with me because you changed people, but you didn't, thank you."

Zhao Yusong was speechless for a moment. He did approach her with a purpose, because of Zuo Xuanhe.

Now it seems that this girl is indeed pitiful. Xuan He has enjoyed a rich life for her for more than ten years, but because of Xuan He, she wants her not to block Xuan He's way. Does she really want to do this?

He felt a little relieved.

Zuo Lingruo lowered her head, but sneered in her heart.

"Okay, it's getting late, and I should go back to the Shangshu Mansion. Remember to finish the candied haws I bought for you!"

Zuo Lingruo wiped away her tears and waved goodbye to him.

"Yeah." Zhao Yusong said softly, but he felt a little complicated inside. The sugar threads wrapping the candied haws had melted a little.

After returning to the Shangshu Mansion, Zuo Lingruo passed through a corridor and happened to run into Zuo Xuanhe.

Zuo Xuanhe felt complicated. Although Zhao Yusong had told her about the plan, was it necessary to send Zuo Lingruo back so generously?
