Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 364 Traveling Doctor Liu’s Plan

While Nan Luo was 'tortured' by Feng Ao Kuai, Nan Hua was staying in the other carriage and received lesson from Nan Si Qiao regarding the etiquette and also some other arts that she had to know.

"If only there's time, I would like to teach you how to paint properly." Nan Si Qiao sighed. Her son was carried by the maidservant at the side and currently sleeping, so she could only speak at lower voice.

"Aunt had taught Hua'er a lot." Nan Hua lowered her eyes.

"Silly girl, how can it be enough." Nan Si Qiao knew very well that the things that she had taught to Nan Hua was extremely limited. It was to the point that she herself felt heartache when she recalled the pitiful amount of things that she taught to Nan Hua.

This little girl wouldn't be able to survive with just such pitiful knowledge if she were to be thrown in a battle of words with other women, ah! She felt worried whenever she recalled that Nan Hua would be thrown into that cruel world and had to face so many double faced vixens.

Nan Hua patted her aunt's hand. "I'll be fine, Aunt."

Looking at Nan Hua, Nan Si Qiao wanted to heave a long sigh. Now that Nan Hua had turned 12 years old, her feature had grown even more feminine. Nan Hua had fair skin and her face was round, still looking as adorable as she used to be. Even now, she still looked slightly childish that made one wonder how she would look like once she fully matured.

In front of Nan Hua, other women would pale in comparison. It seemed that in front of her, there was no one who would be worthy to be called as a vixen.

"It's good that you're already engaged." Nan Si Qiao smiled slightly. The thought of letting that concubine b*tch in her brother's residence be in charge of Nan Hua's marriage made her blood boil. Thankfully, that woman wouldn't have the chance to select a poor man for her nice.

Nan Hua hummed softly.

"There are several poems that you might want to memorize. I already selected several books and asked the servants to carry them."

"I'll read them, Aunt."

"Good."

Honestly, Nan Hua had seen that pile of books when she boarded the carriage. At that time, she was silently wondering whether her aunt would ask her to memorize everything or just part of them. Memorizing everything would take some time and Nan Hua was a bit unwilling to spend so much time to learn them all.

The carriage finally stopped.

"Si Qiao, we're going to stop here for the night. You can stay inside until the tent is ready."

"Yes, Father."

Old Master Nan then instructed the servants to move quickly as to set up the tent faster. It would be night time soon and they wouldn't want to spend the night in the wilderness without having anything to protect them.

"Old Nan."

"What is it, Old Liu?" Old Master Nan looked warily when he saw Traveling Doctor Liu walked in his direction.

Traveling Doctor Liu let out a faint laugh. "Are you that afraid of me?"

"You're not a good person." Old Master Nan snorted.

"Anyway, I'm here to ask something."

"What is it?"

"I want to bring Hua'er to that garden."

Old Master Nan's eyes narrowed dangerously. If the one who caught Traveling Doctor Liu was one of his grandson, he would not care that much. But since it was Nan Hua, how could he possibly let her leave on her own?

"No way! There's no way I can possibly let her go to that place with you."

"You're so quick to reject. Don't you know that that garden is the paradise for us, doctors? I had long wanted to bring her there but I had to wait until I finish imparting my knowledge."

"Do you really think I will believe you when you say that you have pure heart? Anyone but you can have innocent reason!"

"You're really trusting me so little. I'm not that bad!"

"You're indeed so bad!"

"Damn....."

As the two old men started to quarrel with each other, the servants all tactfully moved further away to build the tent. The two children also didn't have any interest to stop their grandfather from having a war of words with the doctor.

This was not the first time Traveling Doctor Liu and Old Master Nan have a bout of words against each other.

"Doctor Shan, are you going to take Hua'er away?" Nan Luo asked when he saw Shan Yu standing on his place. From the way it looked like, Shan Yu was done with building a tent and was now waiting for his Master to finish talking.

Shan Yu arched his eyebrows. "We're not taking her away."

"Then that garden?"

"It's a special place." Shan Yu paused for a moment. "The garden is still in Fei Yang Kingdom, but it's close to the area belonged to other nobles."

Nan Luo nodded his head, finally understanding why his grandfather was so against it. Old Master Nan would never let Nan Hua stayed in a faraway place. Even if it was Fei Yang Kingdom, it was unlikely that Old Master Nan would let her be in a place without their supervision.

"Yu! Let's go back. This old fogey didn't want to listen to my explanation." Traveling Doctor Liu harrumphed in annoyance.

Shan Yu looked at his Master helplessly but said nothing. He only nodded. "Master, Hua'er is still young."

"I don't have much time in Fei Yang Kingdom!"

Hearing that, Shan Yu knew that Traveling Doctor Liu wanted to leave. For the past two years or so, he had been teaching Nan Hua and Kuang Shen back and forth. Because Kuang Shen was undergoing training with Yu Zheng Xi, Traveling Doctor Liu always split his teaching time into two.

One week teaching Nan Hua, the next week teaching Kuang Shen, and so on.

Shan Yu knew that Traveling Doctor Liu had taught almost everything to the two brats. All that was left was for them to experiment on their own and implement what he had been teaching to them.

Thus, it meant that Traveling Doctor Liu would leave soon enough.
