Chapter 269 - First Meeting With Ninth Senior
Chapter 269 – First Meeting With Ninth Senior
The next day, Nan Hua left the residence quietly.
She didn't leave openly as the young miss but rather sneaked from the back. By the time Nan Luo knew about it, Nan Hua had long left.
"Where did she go?" Nan Luo asked in frustration. He wanted to accompany her when she met with Traveling Doctor Liu!
Xiao Yun bowed her head. "Young Master, Young Miss is visiting Traveling Doctor Liu to have a check up."
"Didn't he say that she'll be fine today?" Nan Luo was suspicious.
Feng Ao Kuai nudged Nan Luo. "Follow me to Feng Family main residence. Father is doing investigation."
"Ah, alright."
Thus, the three brothers ended up visiting Feng Family main residence and accompanied General Feng to interrogate the servants. They really wanted to know just who dared to offend them by hurting Nan Hua!
Looking at how attentive his sons were, General Feng was speechless.
He really had to ask Old Master Nan just what did he feed his son with to make them so loyal to Nan Hua. They even wanted to settle this matter because Nan Hua got injured? Even his brother would never do something like this for him. Thus, General Feng really felt complicated in his heart.
Though, Old Master Nan would not answer the question.
Nan Hua just simply won them over.
Through her skills.
But since it was a secret, Old Master Nan would not divulge it. Thus, General Feng was destined to not know for the time being.
…
On another location.
Traveling Doctor Liu looked at the small figure in a distance and his lips curled up to form a helpless smile. Even though Nan Hua was wearing a very plain robe without any accessory, her face alone was enough to cause sensation. She looked so sweet and adorable that it was really hard for one to look away from her.
Shan Yu smiled when he saw Nan Hua walked closer. "Twelfth Junior, you're early. Have you eaten?"
"I have."
She sneaked two buns before going out. After all, she didn't know why her master wished for her to get out.
Traveling Doctor Liu cleared his throat. "Come and follow me. We're going to meet your Ninth Senior."
Nan Hua arched her eyebrows but followed obediently. Kuang Shen was also at the side, but he refused to look at Nan Hua. If he interacted with her, he would be in dilemma about how he should treat her.
The best method for him was simply not to interact with Nan Hua.
That way, he would not fall into dilemma.
The group of four walked on the street until they reached the area that has less houses. Looking at it from another side, it was sparse and filled with field. This area was exactly the area that was used by people who usually farmed.
The water was connected from a channel that they dug from outside and connected to a far river. That way, they would be able to provide for the people who were living in Wind City.
Traveling Doctor Liu smiled when he saw the scenery. "Hua'er, have you ever thought of living in a village?"
Nan Hua blinked her eyes. She looked at her surroundings and tilted her head. She had lived in the forest in the past, would that count?
Seeing her looked a bit confused, Shan Yu interjected, "Master, don't joke around. Great General Nan will not let his granddaughter to leave with you."
"Right." Traveling Doctor Liu felt downcast when he remembered that. He thought of taking Nan Hua to the countryside to follow him but the idea disappeared even before he could implement it.
He felt sad.
Shan Yu's lips twitched. He looked at Nan Hua. "Twelfth Junior, did you like living with Feng Family?"
Feng Family?
"It was alright." Nan Hua's voice was calm and unhurried. It didn't sound like she suffered any grievances. People who were talking to her wouldn't have guessed that she had just stepped one step on the underworld the previous day.
"Would you like to stay outside?"
"There's no need."
"I see." Shan Yu felt that it was really too bad. If Nan Hua wanted it, he could persuade Traveling Doctor Liu to bring them out and lived in another residence. Well, since she wanted to stay in Feng Family Residence, they could only let her be.
He didn't really like the Feng Family since he had talked with his ninth junior not long ago. They were a bit too complicated and annoying.
Probably as what one would expect from a big family.
"We're here."
Traveling Doctor Liu smiled when he saw the hut in front of them. Yes, it was a very simple and crude hut, yet it also gave off the feeling of peace and down to earth.
Nan Hua glanced and saw a woman who looked to be in her teenage age sat on top of a trunk. She wore dark blue robes with a bamboo in her hand. The bamboo had holes on it, clearly showing that it was the humble various of the ancient flute. The woman was looking into a distance without any clear indication where she was looking.
"Yuan'er."
The woman turned her head around when she heard that. However, it was clear that her eyes didn't focus on them. Instead, it looked as if she was looking into a faraway distance that they could never measure in their entire life.
Afterwards, her crisp voice sounded. "Master."
"Ninth Junior, you seem healthier." Shan Yu smiled.
The woman smiled. "Are you here to visit me with others, Third Senior Brother?"
"These two are your eleventh junior, Kuang Shen, and your twelfth junior, Nan Hua."
"Kuang Shen (Nan Hua) greets Ninth Senior Sister."
While they did curtsied, Nan Hua was still looking at her ninth senior sister. For some reason, she came to realize one thing.
Her senior sister was blind.
It was clear that she couldn't see things clearly. However, she still could differentiate the sound of the people who were walking around her just through her other senses.. It was not something ordinary women would be able to do.
