Quick Wear: The Short-lived Female Supporting Character Does Not Want to Be a Heartthrob

My eldest brother is a handsome man. He is married and has a son who is almost two years old.

My second brother studies at Bailu Academy and comes home occasionally. Today, he happened to come across a family dinner.

The third brother is the lady’s youngest son. He is only eleven years old and studies in the private school next door.

The fourth brother is the son of the concubine Li Shihan. He is nine years old this year. Like Li Yaqin, he is very good at pleasing Su Jinnian, the patriarch of the Su family.

Wan Ning sat in his seat, staring at the dishes he liked and taking more without interrupting anyone.

But she felt that someone was always looking at her, so Wan Ning looked over and found that it was her cousin Yuan Heyu whom she met today.

When the other party saw Wan Ning looking over, he was also stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded at Wan Ning.

Wan Ning completely ignored him. This guy is boring.

Because his eldest sister was betrothed to the eldest son of the left commander of the Beijing suburbs camp, who was also a member of the army, the Yuan family was able to take advantage of the situation. Moreover, the Yuan family had been operating in the local area for several years, and they were planning to move up.

This is not something that is brought up as soon as there is an opportunity.

During the dinner, Mrs. Wu also said that they would hold a banquet another day and invite everyone to join in the fun.

Su Wu naturally agreed with a smile. Such beneficial interactions were still acceptable.

After the lively family dinner, all that remained was the performance by Yuan Heyu, Su Yaqin and Su Mengqi.

This time Su Yaqin ignored Yuan Heyu, so Yuan Heyu was more attentive to Su Mengqi.

Wan Ning seldom left his yard, so he had never met Yuan Heyu alone.

Even if he met Yuan Heyu coming to the mansion, Wan Ning would either follow Su Mengqi or turn around and walk away.

Before we knew it, it was June and it was Wanning's birthday.

Chen Xiangling set up a table in her own courtyard, and the mother and daughter, along with several personal maids, celebrated Wan Ning's birthday together.

Madam Wu and eldest daughter Su Mengqi also sent gifts, and Wan Ning accepted them all after thanking them.

In the hot summer, escaping the heat has naturally become a hot topic among people in Xinyucheng.

The third princess in the palace loved to play, so she asked the queen for help, and thus a summer flower-viewing banquet was held in Linlang Cottage.

The Su family also received an invitation, and Madam Wu Jingwan of course wanted her daughter to go.

She wanted her daughter Mengqi to meet more young talents, and the two concubines in the family were also getting old. If she didn't settle down, it was inevitable that others would gossip about her.

After receiving the notice, Wan Ning nodded in agreement. She knew that it was time for her to complete her mission.

The girls and boys who wanted to attend the flower viewing party tried their best to prepare and try to show their best.

Zhou was also very anxious. She wanted Wan Ning to take this opportunity to rise to the top.

For this purpose, he even took out his own private money to order a set of clothes for Wan Ning from Jinxuan Pavilion.

Wan Ning hurriedly grabbed Zhou and said, "Aunt, you can't touch this money."

The mother and daughter had no source of income and usually lived on the monthly allowance from the mansion, as well as some rewards from the master of the Su mansion, Su Jinnian, or his wife, Wu Jingwan.

Zhou's mother and daughter couldn't afford to spend any extra money, so every penny they saved was not easy to come by.

"Ning'er, there will be a lot of girls participating this time. If you dress too plainly, you may not stand out."

Wan Ning smiled and shook her head: "Don't worry, Auntie, I have my own way. Besides, many of the people I met were strangers, and my daughter doesn't want to just judge by appearances."

Hearing Wan Ning's words, Zhou also laughed.

"That's true. Well, I'll take a closer look to see if there's a handsome young man who looks as good as he looks."

Feeling Zhou's teasing, Wan Ning blushed unconsciously. She felt a little shy to talk about this with her elders.

"Okay, auntie, just watch."

Zhou smiled happily, holding Wan Ning's hand, and they sat down together: "That's great, it seems you have really grown up.

In the past, you were always sullen and didn’t say certain things, and I was afraid that you would be unhappy.”

Wan Ning looked at Zhou Xiangling and also smiled and shook his head.

"Now you are still joking with your aunt, and she is very pleased. No matter what, don't be like me."

Seeing Wan Ning wanted to speak, Zhou stopped her in time: "Even if you are the head wife of a small family, it is better than being a mistress in this big family.

Auntie only hopes that you can find a family with a simple population and live a simple life."

Knowing Zhou's good intentions, Wan Ning nodded in agreement.

"Aunt, I will listen to you."

On the ninth day of June, it’s time for the flower viewing party.

After getting up early in the morning, Wan Ning asked Xiao Lian to help her comb her hair as usual, but she chose a green skirt and a beige shawl between her arms.

After dressing herself up, Wan Ning picked up a round fan on the table, which was embroidered with a kitten catching a butterfly.

"Okay, that's it."

Wan Ning gently waved the round fan in her hand, and the breeze brought a slight coolness.

Xiaolian looked at Wanning and said, "Girl, you look really good in this outfit."

Xiao Cui on the side also nodded, the girl looks good in anything she wears.

Wan Ning looked at them and smiled: "Haha, alright, praise them eight hundred times a day."

Finally, Xiaolian followed Wanning out, and Xiaocui stayed in the yard to look after the house.

The mansion arranged two carriages. Su Mengqi got on one alone, and Wan Ning followed Su Yaqin and got on the second one.

After entering, Su Yaqin stayed away from Wan Ning and kept turning sideways, refusing to communicate. Wan Ning ignored her and sat on the other side.

After Xiaolian got on the car, she sat next to her own girl, because Qingyu, the maid of the second girl opposite, didn't talk to her either.

We walked out of the city in silence and arrived in the suburbs.

Soon, voices were heard outside, and Wan Ning knew that they might have arrived. Sure enough, the carriage stopped after a while.

After getting off the car, Su Mengqi took out the invitation. After the receptionist checked it, he immediately led a few people in.

There are strange mountains and scenery everywhere in Linlang Xiaozhu, rockery and flowing water, and most importantly, there are many corridors. Walking under them, you can block the scorching sun and feel the breeze, which is very cool.

After being led to the place, Wan Ning met many young girls.

While looking around, a man walked up to Wan Ning and said, "Dai, haha."

Wan Ning turned around and looked over, and immediately smiled: "I guessed it was you."

"I was surprised when I guessed it, haha. I've been waiting for you to come. I've been wanting to look around for a long time."

The person who was speaking was Tang Xinyue, the concubine's daughter of the Minister of Works. She met Tang Wanning at a party and they had been in frequent contact since then.

Wan Ning nodded: "Okay, wait for me."

So Wan Ning told Su Mengqi about it, and Su Mengqi told her to be careful and let her go. Wan Ning nodded in agreement and left hand in hand with Tang Xinyue.

The two walked along the path, looking at the scenery and chatting quietly.

Some of the girls who come here are boating and playing pitch pot, but most of them are hiding in the shade to cool off.

After taking a walk around, Wan Ning and Tang Xinyue also went back.

Because the two groups were reciting poems across the courtyard, the corridors on both sides were filled with people.

Those on the west are young gentlemen, and those on the east are all pretty girls.
