Chapter 321 - Since When?
Chapter 321 – Since When?
Nan Si Qiao released Nan Hua and laughed when she saw the stiff expression on Nan Hua's face. It was clear that she was not used to this kind of thing, so she didn't know what she was supposed to do.
Raising her hand, Nan Si Qiao rubbed Nan Hua's hair. Her heart ached so much when she saw her niece in this condition. When she was young, her own mother would always treat her very well and pamper her and her brother.
"There's nothing wrong with you being pampered, Hua'er."
Pampered?
Nan Hua felt the word strange, but she didn't say anything. Her twin brother had already snatched the bowl of porridge that Xiao Yun brought inside. He didn't seem to be willing to give up to try feeding her.
"Hua'er, just open your mouth."
"I can eat by myself."
"If you don't want Luo, I can do it too," Feng Ao Kuai added from the side.
Feng Ao Si scratched the back of his head. He was actually feeling unsure, but he also didn't want to lose, so he added, "Uh… If you want, I can try too."
Nan Hua: "…"
Nan Si Qiao laughed hearing the three brats. "Come one, let her eat by herself. It's not like Hua'er can't lift her hand."
"Fine… but her fingers are wounded, right?"
It was then Nan Hua lifted her hand to look at her fingers. It was bandaged with crooked cloth. Back when Chen Yuan came to tend to her, she didn't treat her fingers precisely because it was already tended. Well, roughly.
The cloth didn't seem to be from any of her twin brother and cousin's clothes as the color was different. The texture was somewhat rougher as if it has been worn for quite a long time and washed forcefully to wash the stain.
"Ah, Doctor Chen didn't change that?" Nan Luo's tone was gloomy.
"Has your finger heal?" Feng Ao Kuai focused on different matter. He knew that it belonged to Long Qian Xing, but he didn't feel like talking about it in front of the others.
Nan Hua nodded and slowly unwrapped the cloth. The wound on her finger had closed but there were still some bloodstains left. Xiao Yun quickly fetch a basin and helped Nan Hua to wash her hand.
After she had finished eating under the eyes of everyone else, they heard that Traveling Doctor Liu had come.
Nan Hua's eyes flashed when she heard that.
Traveling Doctor Liu should have left a few days ago. However, he suddenly appeared here showed that he must have heard of what happened. He was not the type of person who would change his decision easily once he had made his mind.
But when it was regarding his disciples, he always made exception.
He loved all of his disciples very much.
"Let him in," Nan Si Qiao gave her order.
"Yes."
"Also, you three, go back to train. If you hadn't finished the set, your grandfather will not allow you to have dinner with Hua'er."
The three boys were stunned before they rushed to the training ground. Feng Ao Si didn't care about not being able to eat with Nan Hua, but he was absolutely sure that if he didn't finish the set, his grandfather wouldn't even let him eat dinner. Thus, the most important thing for him right now was to finish the training as fast as possible.
They all didn't want to be punished.
Traveling Doctor Liu was startled when he saw the children ran past him. He smiled faintly. "They're very energetic."
"Junior Sister Hua must be in good condition," Shan Yu thought out loud.
Traveling Doctor Liu nodded. For the children to be still quite energetic, Nan Hua must be fine. Still, he wanted to see her condition by herself before determining whether she was fine or not.
There was no way he would want to let anything happen to his youngest disciple. He would also feel heartache if something happened to any of his disciple. Though, the heartache was lower for those brats who were already as old as Shan Yu.
They could take care of themselves.
Thus, the two of them arrived by Nan Hua's room. Upon seeing Nan Si Qiao, Traveling Doctor Liu quickly bowed and greeted, "Madam Feng."
"Traveling Doctor Liu, please don't be so polite." Nan Si Qiao refused the excessive courtesy. She smiled then looked at the man who stood beside Traveling Doctor Liu. The man looked fairly young in her opinion.
"This is my third disciple, Shan Yu."
"Madam Feng."
"Hua'er is inside, I'll leave first." Nan Si Qiao knew that Traveling Doctor Liu was Nan Hua's master, so it was inappropriate for her to stay there. Besides, Nan Hua had finished eating, so she could go back and supervise the boys. Later on, she could chat with Nan Hua more.
Traveling Doctor Liu entered and saw Nan Hua on her bed. Seeing her look so obedient caused a smile to form on the corner of his lips. Who would have thought that this seemingly obedient little girl was the one who had summoned a storm and caused troubles just the day ago?
A lot of people were unable to sleep peacefully thanks to her.
But at the same time, she had saved Princess Yue. Without her presence and the clues that she left behind, they would never be able to find Princess Yue before it was too late. But of course, this matter was undisclosed to most people.
Traveling Doctor Liu only knew because he had some connection.
In addition, his fifth disciple was also someone who often collected a lot of information in order to make sure that he could ensure his safety.
Even as an old doctor who tried to stay neutral, there were still some people who wanted his life.
"Master," Nan Hua called out.
"If you still call me Master, you should have known not to put yourself in danger and make everyone worry!" Traveling Doctor Liu chided, but his eyes revealed his relief upon seeing that Nan Hua was fine.
