Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 320 – Depend On Us More

She was not used to this.

Nan Hua didn't know what she was supposed to do. It was all foreign to her. The warmth, the genuine concern that surpassed one's worth nor anything. They didn't seem to even expect anything from her to repay them and simply cared for her.

Care.

Nan Hua's eyes flickered slightly.

She had decided to treat them as her family members but in truth, she was not even sure how one should treat their family members. But even though she didn't know, it didn't mean that she couldn't learn.

With that in mind, Nan Hua closed her eyes.

She was tired.

…

Nan Si Qiao watched as her sons and Nan Luo were forced to train after they had rested enough in the afternoon. Watching them running on the courtyard while she was waiting for Nan Hua to wake up looked somewhat nice.

She felt that the brats really need to earn some lesson for making them worry.

Because Old Master Nan told them that the children were too tired and had rested, Nan Si Qiao only found out about the matter when it was too late. Thus, she was satisfied when she saw the workload plan for the three children that Hou Liang showed to her.

"Mother, help us!" Feng Ao Si asked.

Nan Si Qiao narrowed her eyes. "What are you talking about? Don't you want to become a general like your father? This training will make you stronger."

"But…"

"Continue."

Feng Ao Si howled and then forced his body to continue moving.

Not far from him, Feng Ao Kuai was thinking that his older brother's brain was indeed made out of rock. Their mother's face was already very dark and yet he was still trying to ask for her help. It wouldn't be weird if Feng Ao Si's workload would be increased instead of decreasing later.

Though, Feng Ao Kuai had no intention of warning his brother. He was already dead tired with this amount of workload.

Nan Luo was not in any better condition, but he didn't dare to complain. He could already sense the annoyance that Nan Si Qiao directed to them openly. It was because of that Nan Luo didn't want to aggravate the situation.

It would be better for him to just accept the punishment.

"Qiao'er."

"Ah Shao." Nan Si Qiao saw her husband walked towards her. She furrowed her eyebrows when she noticed the bamboo sticks in his hand. "Are there any bad news from the frontline or about Her Highness?"

"It's about Her Highness." Feng Qian Shao sighed. "She's insisting on meeting Nan Hua to express her thanks but the doctors didn't even let het stand up because she's still too weak."

Nan Si Qiao was speechless. "Did she had to be in such a hurry?"

"We'll depart tomorrow."

"Have you settled the maidservants?"

"Mhm." Feng Qian Shao never expected that the greatest clue would be given by the princess herself. After the poison was purged and the princess woke up not long ago, she told them all that she knew about her servants.

The servants were the closest to her, so she always made sure that they were within his field of vision. Thanks to that, she knew many things and said them all one by one, which made the servants crumbled.

When their family members were threatened, some even tried to commit suicide directly.

In the end, it was known that 3 of them were spies while the rest were in the Capital City. General Chi would personally deliver the list of suspicious people from Princess Yue to Empress Dowager so that they could clean up the palace a bit.

"Hua'er hasn't woken up yet."

Feng Qian Shao furrowed his eyebrows as he turned his head to look at the rooms inside. If he had to say, he was also a bit worried about Nan Hua because Princess Yue had woken up and yet Nan Hua was still sleeping.

Has the poison purged successfully?

At this time, there was a small commotion. Mu Yan rushed out to bring the food from the kitchen while another servant quickly walked towards Nan Si Qiao. "Madam, Young Miss Nan had woken up."

Nan Si Qiao smiled and nodded. "I'll go take a look at her."

"Alright. I'll go back to work."

"Mhm."

The three children naturally heard that Nan Hua had woken up and their attention was attracted almost immediately. They didn't care about the practice they were supposed to do anymore.

Right now, they wanted nothing more but to jump and rush over into the room to check on Nan Hua's condition.

"Come with me." Nan Si Qiao beckoned for the children to follow her. She knew that even if she didn't say anything, the children wouldn't be able to focus on their training anymore. Rather than putting them on suspense, they better come with her to check on Nan Hua's condition.

Nan Hua was sitting on the bed when they arrived. Nan Si Qiao smiled brightly when she saw Nan Hua. "Hua'er, how do you feel?"

"I'm fine." Nan Hua looked at Nan Si Qiao then at her three older brothers behind her. For some reason, she could faintly recall their worried expression at that night and how they looked like a mess just to be able to catch up to her.

Slowly, she lowered her eyes. "Sorry, I made everyone worried."

"It's good that you're fine." Nan Si Qiao sighed and walked to Nan Hua. She stretched her hand and hugged Nan Hua tightly, sensing the stiffness of the young girl before her. A faint and bitter smile formed at the corner of her lips. "You can rely on us more, Hua'er."

"Yes, Hua'er! You don't have to do everything by yourself!" Nan Luo strongly agreed. He felt that Nan Hua was keeping things to herself too much.

"If something bothers you, you can say it to us," Feng Ao Kuai added.

"Count me in too!" Feng Ao Si also added.

Nan Hua looked at her brother and two older cousins and nodded.. "En."
