437 Sneaky Old Madam Long
"I will." Feng Ao Si nodded.
Nan Luo looked at the two of them with jealousy. He also wanted to participate in the ceremony because he was curious and also knew that it was a great honor to have one's name to be called out. However, he was not formally a commander yet.
Even if he was the grandson of Great General Nan, he couldn't just barge into the palace like that.
Feng Ao Kuai's eyes flickered. He too wanted to participate, but his current identity didn't allow him to enter that place yet.
His fingers clenched into a fist.
Not yet.
In the future, he would surely come to that place and made enough contribution so that his name would be called out.
"Hua'er." Old Madam Long managed to somehow shake Old Master Nan away and moved to Nan Hua. She patted Nan Hua's head tenderly. "I heard that you're already proficient in medicine. How about checking on this old body?"
Studying medicine was one of the few things women were allowed to do. However, it didn't mean that they would be better than other women. Even though some of them managed to become a proper doctor, they didn't usually get a job because male doctors were more trusted and valued.
Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "If you would like me to, I will do it, Grandmother."
"That's great!" Old Madam Long smiled brightly. "I really wish I can just kidnap you to my home right now."
"Do you think I'll allow you to take my granddaughter away?" Old Master Nan strode over and pulled Nan Hua over once more. He felt that this pair of grandmother and grandson were both very bad.
They were thieves!
And they stole in broad daylight!
"Hmph!" Old Madam Long snorted. She turned her head to look at her grandson. "Why can't you grow up faster?"
Long Qian Xing: "…" Is it my fault?
At this moment, Long Qian Xing felt that he was despised by his grandmother for not growing up fast enough. However, was it really his fault? It was not like he was the one who controlled time.
Beside him, Feng Ao Si was resisting the urge not to laugh. He felt that being able to see the helpless expression on Long Qian Xing was really good because he couldn't defeat this young man in many occasion in the past. They had also met each other a few times at the battlefield and never even once Feng Ao Si won.
He bore a bit grudge thanks to that.
Old Master Nan snorted. "You can just have your pulse taken by Hua'er, right?"
"I want a more comprehensive check!" Old Madam Long glared at Old Master Nan. "Don't tell me that you're still aiming to look at me even though I'm already old and shriveled like this?"
"I'm not even interested at you when you're young, you damn old hag!"
"Oh yeah, who sneak at us when we're having $%^&*(!"
"Don't say that in front of the children!"
Nan Luo was speechless. Did he just hear something that he shouldn't listen again? The last time it happened, he was punished by his grandfather for an overnight training until he was dead tired.
He turned his head to look at Feng Ao Kuai. However, Feng Ao Kuai was staring at the cup of tea in his hand as if it was the most precious thing in the world. It was clear that Feng Ao Kuai was also hoping that their grandfather wouldn't try to make things difficult for them by pretending not to understand anything.
Pfft!
Only Feng Ao Si couldn't help it.
The other stared at him, lighting a candle for him inside their heart.
As expected…
"AO SI! GET OUT AND HAVE A SPAR WITH HOU LIANG!"
Feng Ao Si was speechless. He turned to look at Hou Liang, who only stared back at him with a gaze that told him it would be useless to fight. With a sigh, Feng Ao Si could only walk out dejectedly.
He hoped that Hou Liang wouldn't go overboard and beat him senseless.
Old Master Nan then ordered the servants to clean the room in the next quarter all while grumbling. Even though he looked like he wanted to kill Old Madam Long right this instant, he would never do that.
The two of them did quarrel a lot.
But they were actually good friends.
Friends who were against each other most of the time.
"Ah Xing, you guard the door." Old Madam Long ordered her grandson before she dragged Nan Hua into the room. She had been wanting to talk with Nan Hua without the interruption of that old man for a long time.
Long Qian Xing smiled helplessly and nodded. He looked at the other three and cupped his fist. "My apologies, Great General Nan, I would have to stay by the door."
"It doesn't matter." Old Master Nan snorted.
He liked the fact that Nan Hua was loved by others. However, he didn't really want Nan Hua to get too close with that old witch Old Madam Long because he feared that she would take the bad habit from her. If that really happened, he didn't mind causing more troubles to the Long Family.
At this time, both Nan Luo and Feng Ao Kuai were silent. At the very least, it was Old Madam Long and not Long Qian Xing.
"Now, you two, go and have the winter set training."
"Now?" The two of them were stunned.
Old Master Nan glared at the two of them and they quickly ran out of the main hall. What a joke, if they stayed there even for a moment longer, their grandfather would have trained them until late at night.
Then tomorrow, they might not be able to present their best.
That would be awful.
Long Qian Xing was still smiling as he watched the brats ran to have their training. He felt that the Nan Family Residence was very lively and fun.
