"Is there anything wrong, Sister Hua?" Su Ai Yuan saw that Nan Hua was staring at the cloth and didn't even touch it. She felt strange because there shouldn't be anything wrong with the cloth, right?
"It's too thin." Nan Hua gave an excuse and shook her head. "That cloth won't be able to be used as blindfold."
"That…" Su Ai Yuan was startled. She eyed Long Xu Nian behind her before she smiled. "In that case, we just need to change the blindfold, right? I'll ask the servant…"
"There's no need, I'll ask my aunt."
Su Ai Yuan's words were blocked in her throat. She couldn't do anything as she watched Nan Hua walked to the tables filled with adults and looked back at Long Xu Nian, who was not far behind her.
Long Xu Nian snorted.
To think that the spoiled brat managed to evade the trap with the cloth. It was just so powder to make her feel itch but it should be enough to make soone scratch their own faces. That way, the girl would have no other choice but to stay holed in her residence.
But since it failed, Long Xu Nian would just think of other way to deal with that girl.
"Aunt."
Nan Si Qiao heard the girl's faint call and turned around. She was surprised to see Nan Hua. "What is it, Hua'er? Do you want to eat?"
Nan Hua shook her head. "I would like to borrow a shawl, Aunt. We're going to play a ga and I need it to cover my eyes before finding the others."
"Ga?" Nan Si Qiao nodded and smiled. "In that case, just use my spare shawl. It's dark blue in color and quite thick. You won't be able to see anything if you use that shawl. It's definitely better than other cloth."
"Thank you, Aunt."
"Silly girl, why are you being so polite with ?" Nan Si Qiao giggled then rubbed Nan Hua's head lightly.
"Madam Feng, are you not going to let see the young girl?" A hearty voice ca from the side.
Nan Hua raised her head and saw an elderly lady sitting not far from them. She looked quite advance in age with her skin started to stick to her bones, making her look extrely skinny. However, there was still the trace of elegance and power in her eyes.
Even if she was already a withered tree, she would still show the vitality comparable to youngsters in her eyes.
"Hua'er, this is Old Madam Long," Nan Si Qiao quickly introduced Nan Hua to Old Madam Long. "Old Madam Long, this little girl is also Old Master Nan's grandchildren. She's still a child and didn't know the rules too much."
Nan Hua bowed her head and greeted obediently, "Old Madam Long."
Old Madam Long scrutinized Nan Hua. To be able to make that damnable Old Master Nan suddenly make a move on his own, this little granddaughter of his must be sowhat special. Looking at Nan Hua, Old Madam Long could only sense that the young girl was a bit cold and mature for her age.
But at this period of ti, girls who couldn't beco mature faster would just end up suffering.
"Co here, child."
Nan Hua walked over obediently. She was looking at Old Madam Long with eyes that was filled with inquiry and innocent expression. One who didn't know her would only thought of her as an obedient young girl.
Old Madam Long smiled then rubbed her head lightly. "Don't play too long. If you don't like the ga, you can just stay here and chat with ."
The words nearly made Nan Si Qiao jumped from her seat. Old Madam Long was known to be a woman with short temper. Why did she suddenly ask Nan Hua to chat with them instead?
"Mhm, I understand, Old Madam Long."
"What Old Madam? Call Grandma."
"Grandma," Nan Hua was very obedient as she answered politely.
Old Madam Long nodded in satisfaction. She patted her head. "Don't forget to tell that grandfather of yours that you're now my granddaughter too."
Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "But I'm not of marriageable age yet."
"You're my grandson's fiancée, so naturally you're my granddaughter!"
The logic didn't seem to be wrong.
After thinking for a mont, Nan Hua simply nodded and accepted it. "Grandma, Hua'er will go play first."
"Mhm, go."
While Old Madam Long happily send Nan Hua away, she noticed that Nan Si Qiao was looking at her as if seeing a ghost. The look irritated her so much that she snapped, "Are you unhappy that I regard Hua'er as my granddaughter?"
"Of course not! Or course not! Old Madam Long is a very benevolent and respectable person, so it's Hua'er honor to be able to call you as her grandmother," Nan Si Qiao quickly answered. Internally, she was actually screaming.
Only the Heaven knew that she actually wanted to say the opposite of what she just said.
Old Madam Long was kind and benevolent?
Pfft.
If she was kind and benevolent, every person would be kind and benevolent. She was actually a very annoying woman who many people would not even want to get close to.
But right now, Nan Si Qiao had no other choice but to sing praise to this old madam!
