Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 435 The Capital City

Several elegant carriages were heading into the Capital City and the person in charge of the gate didn't even dare to block them. A few soldiers could be seen guarding the carriage as the person inside is an important person. Onlookers would give it a sidelong glance. Once they saw the family emblem, a trace of surprise and reverence would form on their faces. However, they didn't dare to do anything and continued on with their usual activities.

The person in the second carriage is a young lady wearing a flowing blue dress and a thick coat that was designed for winter. Her hair is tied up in an intricate braid pattern. In front of her, Xiao Yun was sighing when she saw her Miss's side face. She felt that her Miss was too beautiful!

Just a glimpse was enough to let many people fall into a trance. Even though Nan Hua was not of age yet, her charm was already highlighted. When she reached maturity, countless men would undoubtedly fall for her.

'It's good to be able to share carriage with Miss today.'

Xiao Yun felt that she was really lucky to be able to stay inside. Normally, Nan Hua would ride carriages with her brother and cousins. But since she had reached 13 years old, it would be time for her to start taking her own carriages or people would start gossiping about how improper it was.

Lowering her head, Xiao Yun noticed Nan Hua's hand.

Though her pair of hands is small, it had a unique roughness to it that was totally unfitting for a noble girl. One glance is enough to make them recognize that she was used to work hard labor.

Xiao Yun felt her heart thumped when she saw that.

"Miss, did you not use the cream?" Xiao Yun asked worriedly.

Nan Hua shifted her attention back inside. She looked at her own hands, which was barely befitting her status as a noble lady. Even though Xiao Yun and Mu Yan had been reminding her about this, she hadn't paid that much attention to her hand.

"It's not that rough."

"Miss, you still should use it. If other people see it, they might even make fun of you." Xiao Yun took out the cream from her bag and silently applied it to Nan Hua's hand. If only it was possible, she wished that Nan Hua's hand would always stay as smooth as possible forever.

Nan Hua nodded her head helplessly. She knew that it would be impossible for her to convince Xiao Yun otherwise, so she allowed the other party to apply the cream. Her hand was not that rough as those who didn't pay close attention wouldn't notice. But if they wanted to target her, this might be enough to be a gossip material.

Nan Hua felt that live as a noble lady was indeed very difficult.

After a while, Nan Hua shifted her head as she gazed outside. A fleeting light flashed in her eyes for a moment, before her face returned to a calm expression.

"Miss," a soft voice called her back from her thoughts. Xiao Yun was looking at her miss's expression with worry.

Nan Hua was not the type of person to show her expression, which was why Xiao Yun had long gotten used to pay attention Nan Hua's eyes to know what was inside her mind. There was rarely any emotion within it and today was not an exception.

However, the light that flashed within Nan Hua's eyes made Xiao Yun worried.

Nan Hua looked back. "I'm alright Xiao Yun."

Xiao Yun stared outside. The roads were decorated with various lanterns and bustling people crowded the streets. Tomorrow would be the celebration banquet, which was why a festive atmosphere filled the road. It is also for this reason that Nan Hua had to come back and prepare herself.

Besides, she had been putting off her plan in the Capital City for a long time.

It was time for her to start.

"Miss, do you miss the capital?"

"I don't." Nan Hua answered in an indifferent tone.

Xiao Yun nodded, knowing full well that the Capital City didn't really hold many good memories for Nan Hua. There were too many things that had happened in the past and more than half of it were bad memories for Nan Hua.

If not for the fact that Nan Hua stayed with Old Master Nan after she turned 8, Xiao Yun couldn't imagine how her young miss would turn out to be.

"We will soon arrive in Great General Nan's Residence."

"Mhm."

Since the banquet was tomorrow, Nan Hua had to return to her grandfather's residence for the time being.

The row of carriages soon arrived in Old Master Nan's Residence. The children walked out one by one.

Nan Hua held onto Xiao Yun's hand and walked down the steps slowly. Her eyes were looking at the large residence before her eyes. She would only stay here for the next two weeks before moving to a rotten residence.

How annoying.

"Hua'er, let's go in."

"Okay."

With her twin brother and cousins, Nan Hua walked into the residence. Looking at the decorations and plants around, Nan Hua realized that the place was still the same as it was three years ago when she left. The only differences would be some of the trees had grown bigger over the time.

The areas where they used to play together and also the places where they used to sneak out, everything was left as it was. Nan Luo and the others were also stretching their hands. They were eager to have some exercise again now that they were back in their territory.

The group hadn't had the time to settle down properly when a servant rushed towards Old Master Nan. "Master, there's a messenger from Long Family."

"What is it?" Old Master Nan's eyebrows creased when he heard that.

"They're saying that they would arrive in Nan Family Residence soon."

The children were speechless.

On the other hand, Old Master Nan resisted the urge to curse out loudly. That damn old hag dared to come here on the day he returned?
