Long Qian Xing coughed when he heard Nan Hua’s sudden words.
Even though the two of them were husband and wife, there were also things that they would not say so bluntly to each other.
He turned his head to look at Nan Hua and then asked, “Why did you suddenly say that?”
Nan Hua blinked her eyes. “Because I want it.”
“We’re still at the frontline, Hua’er.” Long Qian Xing coughed.
It was not like he didn’t want one, but the time didn’t seem to be suitable for them to do it.
“It doesn’t have to be right now.” Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing speechlessly. “But we can start preparing?”
Long Qian Xing looked at Nan Hua’s look and stepped forward. He rubbed Nan Hua’s head and smiled faintly. “If my wife is saying that, it seems that I need to work harder.”
Nan Hua blinked her eyes and the next moment, she was already being pushed to the bed. She looked at Long Qian Xing above her and felt that his words truly couldn’t be trusted.
Then again, who wanted to refuse?
Long Qian Xing leaned in and locked his lips with Nan Hua.
…
<The servant’s side>
Dai was thoroughly tired after dealing with Feng Ao Si. This b*stard kept on piling up all the work on him and then left to play with Nan Luo. At this moment, Dai was seriously considering that he should ask to leave.
He couldn’t stand having such an unreliable leader.
“Dai?” Xiao Yan, Nan Luo’s adjutant, found Dai and called out. “Everyone has gathered to eat. Do you want to come along?”
“The work is far from over.” Dai’s face was black.
Xiao Yan: “…”
He looked at the pile of work around Dai and silently lit a candle for this man. To be honest, he really didn’t expect that Dai would be able to last that long under Feng Ao Si. After all,
everyone knew how unreliable Feng Ao Si is.
However, Dai was able to withstand Feng Ao Si and continued to be the adjutant for such a man.
Xiao Yan could only say that he was full of respect.
After all, he didn’t have that much patience like them.
“How about taking a break? It’s rare everyone gathered,” Xiao Yan suggested.
Everyone gathered?
Well, there was only Si Kang who was not here, though. After all, Si Kang followed Feng Ao Kuai and they were currently staying in the Liang City. Unless Feng Ao Kuai was arranged to come to the frontline again, it was estimated that they wouldn’t see him anytime soon. “Fine.” Dai sighed.
He put away these bamboo scrolls to take a look later.
If he didn’t do these, it was estimated that Feng Ao Si would never do it, so there was simply no other option.
The two of them walked to the camp.
“Have you ever thought about resigning?” Dai asked.
Their contract with the Nan Family was with a buyout clause, which meant that they could actually leave if they wanted to. As for the money?
They were quite rich after following their master for a long time.
Even though Feng Ao Si was such a handful to take care, he paid generously.
This was one of the reasons why Dai stayed beside Feng Ao Si and honestly wiped the mess that the annoying young man created.
“Not really.” Xiao Yan shook his head. “I don’t have any place to go even if I leave. Besides, my sister is still in the Nan Family Residence and I’m not rest assured leaving her alone.”
Xiao Yan’s sister, Xiao Yun, is Nan Hua’s maidservant. She was staying in Fei Yang Kingdom’s Capital City during this period of time and didn’t follow Nan Hua to the battlefield. For this matter, Xiao Yan felt that it was a bit of a pity, but he still could accept it.
As long as Xiao Yun was fine, Xiao Yan didn’t care even if they didn’t see each other.
“I see.” Dai nodded.
“Do you still have family out there?” Xiao Yan asked. He felt that he had never actually asked these questions to Dai before. After all, they were not exactly close to each other and everyone was too busy with their own lives.
Who would care about other servant’s background.
Moreover, this servant didn’t really serve the same master as you and they would not even see each other often.
“Mhm.” Dai nodded.
He still has family members. They technically sold him to the Nan Family Residence when he was younger. Afterwards, he was selected by Old Master Nan to follow Feng Ao Si and never actually saw them again.
Xiao Yan blinked his eyes. “So, do you miss them?”
“Not really.” Dai shook his head. “I’m still young when I was sold, so I don’t have much memory of my time in my family.”
Many children from improvised family were sold to the noble families as servants. At some other times, the girls were sold to other family to be their family’s daughter in law even
before she reached the age.
It was the normal practice.
When Dai was sold, he was still very young and didn’t remember his family much. Afterwards, he was too busy living his life in training before he was arranged to stay with Feng Ao Si.
“I see.” Xiao Yan nodded, not too surprised.
This situation was relatively common among the manservants in various noble families. But this was the way of survival for the improvised family and they hoped that by selling their children, they could live well.
Some of them would hope their children could have a good master but many others didn’t
really care.
How many servants died inexplicably?
The moment they were sold, they basically had no rights anymore.
Finding a master like the Nan Family who gave them good treatment and so on was really hard to find in this era.
It was also because of this that even though Dai felt it was troublesome and wanted to quit many times, he never acted on it.
