Several elegant carriages were heading into the Capital City and the person in charge of the gate didnt even dare to block them. A few soldiers could be seen guarding the carriage as the person inside is an important person. Onlookers would give it a sidelong glance. Once they saw the family emblem, a trace of surprise and reverence would form on their faces. However, they didnt dare to do anything and continued on with their usual activities.
The person in the second carriage is a young lady wearing a flowing blue dress and a thick coat that was designed for winter. Her hair is tied up in an intricate braid pattern. In front of her, Xiao Yun was sighing when she saw her Misss side face. She felt that her Miss was too beautiful!
Just a glimpse was enough to let many people fall into a trance. Even though Nan Hua was not of age yet, her charm was already highlighted. When she reached maturity, countless men would undoubtedly fall for her.
Its good to be able to share carriage with Miss today.
Xiao Yun felt that she was really lucky to be able to stay inside. Normally, Nan Hua would ride carriages with her brother and cousins. But since she had reached 13 years old, it would be time for her to start taking her own carriages or people would start gossiping about how improper it was.
Lowering her head, Xiao Yun noticed Nan Huas hand.
Though her pair of hands is small, it had a unique roughness to it that was totally unfitting for a noble girl. One glance is enough to make them recognize that she was used to work hard labor.
Xiao Yun felt her heart thumped when she saw that.
Miss, did you not use the cream? Xiao Yun asked worriedly.
Nan Hua shifted her attention back inside. She looked at her own hands, which was barely befitting her status as a noble lady. Even though Xiao Yun and Mu Yan had been reminding her about this, she hadnt paid that much attention to her hand.
Its not that rough.
Miss, you still should use it. If other people see it, they might even make fun of you. Xiao Yun took out the cream from her bag and silently applied it to Nan Huas hand. If only it was possible, she wished that Nan Huas hand would always stay as smooth as possible forever.
Nan Hua nodded her head helplessly. She knew that it would be impossible for her to convince Xiao Yun otherwise, so she allowed the other party to apply the cream. Her hand was not that rough as those who didnt pay close attention wouldnt notice. But if they wanted to target her, this might be enough to be a gossip material.
Nan Hua felt that live as a noble lady was indeed very difficult.
After a while, Nan Hua shifted her head as she gazed outside. A fleeting light flashed in her eyes for a moment, before her face returned to a calm expression.
Miss, a soft voice called her back from her thoughts. Xiao Yun was looking at her misss expression with worry.
Nan Hua was not the type of person to show her expression, which was why Xiao Yun had long gotten used to pay attention Nan Huas eyes to know what was inside her mind. There was rarely any emotion within it and today was not an exception.
However, the light that flashed within Nan Huas eyes made Xiao Yun worried.
Nan Hua looked back. Im alright Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun stared outside. The roads were decorated with various lanterns and bustling people crowded the streets. Tomorrow would be the celebration banquet, which was why a festive atmosphere filled the road. It is also for this reason that Nan Hua had to come back and prepare herself.
Besides, she had been putting off her plan in the Capital City for a long time.
It was time for her to start.
Miss, do you miss the capital?
I dont. Nan Hua answered in an indifferent tone.
Xiao Yun nodded, knowing full well that the Capital City didnt really hold many good memories for Nan Hua. There were too many things that had happened in the past and more than half of it were bad memories for Nan Hua.
If not for the fact that Nan Hua stayed with Old Master Nan after she turned 8, Xiao Yun couldnt imagine how her young miss would turn out to be.
We will soon arrive in Great General Nans Residence.
Mhm.
Since the banquet was tomorrow, Nan Hua had to return to her grandfathers residence for the time being.
The row of carriages soon arrived in Old Master Nans Residence. The children walked out one by one.
Nan Hua held onto Xiao Yuns hand and walked down the steps slowly. Her eyes were looking at the large residence before her eyes. She would only stay here for the next two weeks before moving to a rotten residence.
How annoying.
Huaer, lets go in.
Okay.
With her twin brother and cousins, Nan Hua walked into the residence. Looking at the decorations and plants around, Nan Hua realized that the place was still the same as it was three years ago when she left. The only differences would be some of the trees had grown bigger over the time.
The areas where they used to play together and also the places where they used to sneak out, everything was left as it was. Nan Luo and the others were also stretching their hands. They were eager to have some exercise again now that they were back in their territory.
The group hadnt had the time to settle down properly when a servant rushed towards Old Master Nan. Master, theres a messenger from Long Family.
What is it? Old Master Nans eyebrows creased when he heard that.
Theyre saying that they would arrive in Nan Family Residence soon.
The children were speechless.
On the other hand, Old Master Nan resisted the urge to curse out loudly. That damn old hag dared to come here on the day he returned?
