As Liu Yuxian spoke, she looked the brother and sister up and down.

More precisely, he was looking closely at Su Hua; this woman was too beautiful!

Whether it was her face or her figure, she was better than anyone she had ever seen in the sixteen years she had lived in Tangshan Prefecture. Wearing only a simple cotton dress, she completely outshone the vast majority of people present.

Even compared to her, she's only slightly inferior...

However, his aloofness inexplicably made people dislike him.

In fact, Su Hua was quite good-looking. Her height and eyebrows resembled those of her father, while her bone structure and face shape resembled those of Su Bai. She was a combination of the best features of both her parents.

Previously, because of his fat and dark skin, he looked like a black bear spirit.

During this period of continuous weight loss and nourishment from the spatial water droplets, the fat on her body was reduced, and her skin became whiter, a clean porcelain white with no visible pores, which was about seven or eight parts similar to Su Hua in her previous life.

“This is my brother’s and my good friend.” Upon hearing this, Qin Yingxian’s slightly flushed face immediately became lively. “This is Sister Su, and the other one is Sister Su’s older brother.”

"Su?" Liu Yuxian thought for a moment, her willow-leaf eyebrows furrowing slightly. "I wonder which member of the Su family?"

Just as Qin Yingxian was about to speak, Wei Jianjia gently interrupted her, saying, "Sister Liu has been in the prefectural city all this time, so she may not know much about what has happened in Qingshui County these days."

However, most of the young men and women in Qingshui County have heard of Su's Mala Tang, which has recently become popular in the county and is loved by every household.

That stall belongs to Miss Su and Young Master Su.

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze towards Su Hua and her brother changed.

"A spicy hot pot stall?" Liu Yuxian took two steps back.

The way they looked at Su Hua and her brother was as if they were looking at something dirty.

Wei Jianjia seemed not to notice, and then introduced to Su Hua and her brother with a smile, "Hua'er, Brother Su, this Sister Liu is the eldest daughter of the Prefect of Tangshan Prefecture. She is three years older than Hua'er. From now on, Hua'er will call her Sister Liu along with me."

Su Hua glanced at her with a half-smile.

Before she could speak, Liu Yuxian, who had stepped aside, coldly said, "There's no need for all this 'sisters' and 'brothers.' Jianjia, today's Hundred Flowers Banquet is an elegant gathering. Why did you invite all sorts of random people? Isn't this just reckless?"

Wei Jianjia bit her lower lip, "Sister Liu, I, I'm not..."

But after stammering for a long time, she still couldn't utter a coherent sentence.

She felt incredibly wronged.

Qin Yingxian's smile froze on her face as she listened to their conversation. "What are you talking about? Sister Su and Brother Su are my and my brother's friends. They're not some shady characters."

Moreover, my cousin contacted me three days ago, saying there was a small misunderstanding between her and Sister Su, and insisted that I invite Sister Su and Brother Su to the Hundred Flowers Banquet to resolve it. Has my cousin already forgotten all about it?

We absolutely must invite her and Su Dahu to the Hundred Flowers Banquet.

Su Hua's almond-shaped eyes turned slightly cold. No wonder Wei Jianjia didn't choose any other time, but instead chose the hour of Wei (1-3 PM) on the 20th to hold the banquet, and even specially sent Qiu Shuang to greet her at the entrance of the manor. She was afraid that Su Hua and Su Da Hu wouldn't come.

As for clearing up misunderstandings, such words are only good for fooling teenage girls.

She didn't believe a single word of it.

However, she couldn't figure out what Wei Jianjia was up to.

With so many people watching, dozens of eyes were on them. Surely they wouldn't just kill her and Su Dahu outright.

Su Hua turned to look at Su Dahu, meeting his equally deep eyes.

Since we can't avoid it, we might as well find a way to deal with it.

Wei Jianjia bit her lip and remained silent, her head still lowered.

Seeing this, Liu Yuxian pulled Qin Yingxian over and advised her with a face full of disapproval: "Yingxian, you are still young and probably do not know how treacherous people are. Your grandfather holds a high position, your maternal family is richer than a country, and your father is the magistrate of Qingshui County. There are too many people with ulterior motives who are trying to get close to you."

Especially the children of those street vendors, who knows how many tricks they have in their hearts, how could they be true friends with you?

You've definitely been scammed!

They were born into noble families, how could they be allowed to gather with these laborers and peddlers?

If word gets out, people will laugh their heads off.

She looked at Su Hua, her dislike completely replaced by disdain.

So what if you're good-looking?

She's just the daughter of a peddler, destined for a lowly life!

At best, she would marry another lowly peddler, have another litter of children who would also be peddlers, and live a miserable life, a world apart from someone like her.

The maidservant standing behind Liu Yuxian, seeing her mistress's expression, instantly understood and gave the Su siblings a cold glance.

"You two, you don't even know how to bow to my young lady? Don't you understand etiquette?"

"How dare you!" Qin Yingxian's face flushed red with anger.

"That's really insolent! Is this a place for you to interrupt? Hurry up and stand aside." Liu Yuxian scolded the maid half-jokingly, then smiled and pulled Qin Yingxian behind her.

"However, my maid is only doing this for the good of the Su siblings. Everyone here is a person of importance. How can we be so impolite because of these two? This is Qichi Manor, the territory of the Qin family. Wouldn't that bring shame to the Qin family and Jianjia?"

"Sister Liu, Sister Su and Brother Su are not what you think..." Qin Yingxian was about to retort when her sleeve was gently tugged.

Turning around, she met Su Hua's reassuring gaze.

She smiled faintly, seemingly without any emotional fluctuation, glanced calmly at the people in the garden, and said in a low voice:

“Miss Liu is right. Everyone here is a person of high standing. It would be unseemly if we, brother and sister, were to be impolite. May I ask how Miss Liu would like us to greet you?”
