When etiquette were perford well, it always looked pleasing to the eyes.
This was what Old Madam Long felt when she saw Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua. Their
upbringing and etiquette were done very well that it made people feel amazed when they saw their way of bringing themselves.
"Grandma, Father," Long Qian Xing called out. "The tea?"
"Yes, yes." Old Madam Long laughed and nodded. The tea ceremony equipnt had been prepared on the side for Nan Hua to start.
Looking at the familiar equipnt, Nan Hua blinked her eyes and stepped forward to start. She has long been familiar with the process of making tea due to Nan Si Qiao's teaching ever since she was young.
The steps were still imprinted in her mind.
From the rinsed the teapot and teacups before she heated so water. Her move when she prepared them was not slow but it was filled with elegance as if coming out of the painting. Removing the water, and so on, Nan Hua continued to proceed as she had been taught in the past. Every steps flowed like water without stopping and the picture looked extrely gorgeous.
Long Ao Ming, Long Qian Xing's father, looked at Nan Hua in front of him.
After hearing from his mother that Nan Hua was soone who had fought on the frontline for a long period of ti, Long Ao Ming's impression of Nan Hua was soone valiant and tough.
But looking at her current appearance.
Only elegance and demure could fit the description.
Her petite body showed none of the toughness a soldier usually showed. She looked extrely soft and was even better than many other won in terms of etiquette and art ceremony.
Rather than the n's etiquette that showed their toughness and valiance, it was the won's etiquette that showed elegance and softness but still firm and proper.
The contrasting image in his mind made Long Ao Ming sighed secretly.
He looked at his son and saw that Long Qian Xing's eyes were filled with Nan Hua. It seed that he would never be able to turn his gaze away from her.
'This brat.'
Long Ao Ming chuckled internally.
Soon, the tea was done and Nan Hua presented it to Old Madam Long and Long Ao Ming. The two of them tasted the tea and then handed the present they have prepared to Nan Hua.
"Thank you, Grandma, Father," Nan Hua said her thanks.
"We're now one family, so you don't have to be so polite." Old Madam Long chuckled and then saw Long Qian Xing beside Nan Hua. "You two have only been together and I'm sure you want to spend more ti together, so I won't hold you here."
"Thank you, Grandma," Long Qian Xing was the one who replied.
Nan Hua blinked her eyes and then passed a look at Long Qian Xing, who pretended that he did nothing. It seed that Long Qian Xing must be looking at Old Madam Long and gave so signal to him.
She felt a bit amused.
Not that she disliked it, though.
As the two of them left, Long Ao Ming looked at his mother. "She certainly didn't give the impression of soone who's..."
He didn't continue because there were servants around and from what his mother said to him before, it seed that Nan Hua was keeping this identity from going public. Those who should know will know while those who shouldn't know will not know.
It was a strange state but it worked, so Long Ao Ming didn't have much opinion.
But he still felt that it was a wonderful matter to be able to give off such a different impression from what they actually were.
Old Madam Long was stunned for a mont before laughing. "Indeed. Hua'er is different from what she showed."
If Old Madam Long were to say, Nan Hua was the perfect epito of 'Don't judge soone from their appearance.' Because Nan Hua's appearance was really adorable, demure, and elegant. But she knew very well that behind this appearance was a valiant woman who had fought countless battles on the frontline and also took the lives of so many people.
She's a ruthless person deep down.
But at the sa ti, she was not a bad person.
At least, in Old Madam Long, Nan Hua is a good girl. Besides, Old Madam Long appreciated soone who was smart and capable compared to soone who was too naive and stupid. Because those who were stupid wouldn't be able to survive in a high status and big family like this.
So even though those who were innocent and naive were also pretty good in a sense, but Old Madam Long preferred soone like Nan Hua for her grandson.
"Right, Mother, the relatives from Father's family are also coming to the Capital City," Long Ao Ming reminded.
Old Master Long has several brother and sisters, but they all have their own aspiration and didn't have much interaction with him in the end. After all, everyone has their own path in their lives and it was impossible for siblings to help each other for their entire life.
Not to ntion, Old Master Long pursued the path of military and spent most of his ti on the frontline. There was not much ti for him to reunite with these siblings and cousins of his who ca.
It was Old Madam Long who dealt with them.
After Old Master Long's death many years ago, these people clearly stayed further away from the Long Family.
Because they felt that without the Old Master Long, the Long Family under Old Madam Long
was nothing.
Long Ao Ming hadn't grown up at that ti.
And his own action later on made many people from the Long Family who were distant with
them felt pessimistic.
Thus, they stayed away.
Who would have thought that later on, the two father and son would make great na on the
battlefield.
At this ti, it was already too late to repair their relationship.
