After transmigrating,The Female Supporting Character Became Darling of The Five

Chapter 2: Big Brother Su Jing

"Can you come over and help me?" Su Guan asked, holding a dress in one hand, not knowing whether to wear it inside or outside, and looked at her in confusion.

This ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese attire) was particularly complex, with several layers in the front and back. She was a bit unclear about how to wear it, not because she was inept.

Seeing this, the Mama reluctantly went to help her dress, thinking to herself that someone who knows nothing and understands nothing, would not know how to live in the countryside.

Su Guan clutched the ring tightly in her hand, not letting it be discovered. After she was dressed, she went straight out the door.

This was her belonging, not part of the Gu household, and had to be taken with her.

The Mama followed behind, noticing that she hadn't taken anything else, and thought to herself how sensible she had become now?

As soon as Su Guan came out, she walked towards the gate, relying on her memory.

She bumped into a servant boy, who upon seeing it was Su Guan, said directly:

"Su family's eldest young master has come to pick you up."

Hearing this, Su Guan immediately became excited, her face breaking into a smile. She was thrilled to hear that the eldest brother of the Su family had come to pick her up, as the book described him as a gentle and elegant gentleman, brimming with talent.

The servant boy led Su Guan out of the mansion. On their way out, Su Guan noticed that the servants in the mansion seemed very busy, constantly coming and going with things. A girl about her age stood under the corridor, wearing a pink dress.

The girl was staring intently in their direction. Madam Gu was affectionately touching her face, unaware, but Su Guan noticed this direct gaze.

Because they were far apart and it was daytime, she couldn't see the girl's face clearly, but that didn't stop her from guessing who she was.

If she wasn't mistaken, that should be Gu Yue, who had swapped identities with her.

Now, as the wheel of fate began to turn, Gu Yue had returned to the Gu residence to begin enjoying a wonderful life. Meanwhile, Su Guan, having removed her jewelry, wearing only a simple dress, walked out of the Gu residence, waving her sleeve without taking a single cloud with her.

At the entrance of the Gu residence stood a young man about twenty years old, wearing the uniform of the county academy. His long, gray robe had faded and whitened from washing, and he couldn't bear to throw it away even though it was patched.

He looked slender, but his spine was very straight, and he was about 1.8 meters tall. Hearing the gate open, he turned around, revealing his handsome face. Upon seeing him, Su Guan had one thought in her mind: a gentleman as gentle as jade, with a temperament as mild as an orchid.

Step by step, Su Guan walked towards the young man at the gate, who was also watching her.

This was Su Jing, the eldest of the Su family, her future elder brother. The book said that elder brother Su Jing had been the top scholar in the imperial examinations and later held a high-ranking position.

Su Guan smiled at him, revealing a pair of playful and cute dimples. The young girl had fair skin and picturesque features, and in her eyes, there were faint traces of her mother's youthful appearance.

The Su family has good genes, and their biological daughter is no exception. Su Guan was born beautiful. Raised in luxury over the years, her temperament is distinctly different from that of a country girl.

"Big brother!" Su Guan called out with a smile and then walked towards him, lifting her skirt, like a beautiful little butterfly.

Su Jing couldn't help but feel startled by her call, as the girl's voice was as pleasant as a nightingale's.

"Uh..." Su Jing responded uneasily.

"The madam has arranged for someone to send you back!" a servant called out from behind. At this point, if they were to walk back to the countryside, it would probably be dark by the time they returned.

"No need, I'll just walk back with big brother. Please thank Madam Gu for her kindness!" Su Guan politely declined.

Since big brother had come to pick her up, there was no need to trouble her.

In the book, big brother Su Jing is a person of great integrity. He is also sensitive, often mocked by his wealthy classmates at the academy. Su Guan was afraid he might be upset, or think she was being pampered.

But Su Jing was also surprised. He had heard that his new sister was raised in luxury. The walk back to the village would take an hour; could she endure such hardship?

"Our home is far away. Maybe you should still take the carriage back?" big brother spoke gently, with a scholar's demeanor.

"Big brother, I'm just an ordinary citizen now, not so delicate. Let's hurry, I'm afraid it will be dark and the road will be hard to navigate!"

Su Guan took the initiative to hold Su Jing's hand. Her hand was tender and small, white and delicate, not like that of a farmer accustomed to hard work, with rough calluses.

She led Su Jing down the steps, looking very happy.

Meanwhile, Su Guan hummed a song along the way, seemingly not sad or upset at all.

Madam Gu felt guilty towards her biological daughter, and now only showed disdain for her adopted daughter. But logically, she chose her own daughter, which wasn't wrong. She should see it in perspective.

After Su Guan left, the servant returned to report.

"Madam, she has already left with the eldest son of the Su family."

Madam Gu was showing Gu Yue around the mansion, her joy at recognizing her biological daughter clearly showing.

Upon hearing Su Guan's name, her expression turned cold.

"Did she really leave willingly?"

She was afraid that Su Guan was still not giving up and would come back to make trouble one day.

"It should be, she looked quite happy, maybe her brain got messed up from the anger." Now that Su Guan was no longer the young lady, this lad also began to belittle her at will.

"Madam, she didn’t take anything with her, just left wearing her clothes," the Mama chimed in beside.

Madam Gu frowned and said:

"Those were not her things to begin with, they all belonged to my Yue Yue. But since she has used them, my Yue Yue can't use them again. Find a box to pack them up, don't leave them out."

The young girl in pink clothes, always smiling, held Madam Gu's hand, seeming very pleased with Madam Gu's attitude towards Su Guan.

In fact, all of this was the sin of Madam Gu, but she didn't seem to feel guilty at all. If she felt guilty, it was only for her own daughter.

You see, Su Guan was also a victim.

She was just a little baby at the time, what could she have done wrong?

Madam Gu avoided the Su family at all costs, fearing they would cling to her.

Moreover, seeing Su Guan always reminded her of the sins she had committed, and she could never be happy about it, preferring 'out of sight, out of mind.'

Given the Gu family's circumstances, raising another daughter was not a financial issue, it was purely Madam Gu's own lack of compassion.

"Let’s go, Yue Yue, mom will take you to eat something delicious."

Holding her own daughter, she looked at her with joy, thinking that her own daughter was more like her.
