The next day, Nan Hua was speechless when she saw her three servants dolled her up. She felt as if she had turned into a real life doll just based on how long they took to dress her up today. Looking at the bronze mirror, she could definitely say that they truly worked their best.
100 mourning days have already passed, so Nan Hua no longer had to wear white based clothes anymore. Right now, she was wearing bright blue brocade dress. Her long and black hair were braided to the back and a small red flower was placed there. It looked beautiful even from a distance away.
"Hua'er, are you ready?" Nan Luo asked from outside. He didn't enter her room but waited outside.
As Nan Hua walked out, she could see her twin brother was also wearing bright blue clothes. His hair was carefully combed to the back and tied into a bun. His dark obsidian eyes sparkled when he saw his twin sister.
"Hua'er looks the best!"
"Luo is handsome," Nan Hua replied back.
Nan Luo beamed. "Of course, I'm always handsome but I can't be compared to Hua'er!"
Behind Nan Hua, Xiao Yun blinked her eyes. She felt that Young Master Nan was getting even more shameless as time passed by. Raising her head slightly, she caught the sight of Nan Luo's manservant also showed a tinge of helplessness in his eyes.
It seemed that Nan Luo's manservants were also helpless at their young master's attitude.
The two of children took the carriage to head over to Long Family Residence. Nan Si Qiao would take a different carriage since she was coming over with her children. Right now, there were a lot of people in the Capital City who came to celebrate Old Madam Long's birthday.
Old Madam Long herself might not be that popular, but Long Family was a family of great general. How could they now show face when the one who invited them to come was such a family?
Thus, they all come.
"Wow, they're all crowding the place." Nan Luo peeked through the window when they were about to arrive. "Hua'er, do you think there will be a lot of food inside later?"
Nan Hua looked at Nan Luo then to the window. Her eyes flickered ever so slightly. "Naturally, there'll be a lot of food."
"That's good! You have to eat a lot, Hua'er so that you can grow strong."
"En."
Nan Luo was a genuine child at 8 to 9 years old, so he was incomparably excited when he was seeing everything outside. But of course, he would never show this kind of appearance in front of others. He was not that tactless to show this unsightly behavior in front of others.
He only wanted his little sister to laugh.
Nan Hua was also watching everything outside. Her dark obsidian eyes revealed nothing but calm that didn't suit her age. Slowly, she closed her eyes and by the time she opened it again, her eyes were still as cold as before but now it was tinged with traces of innocence and immaturity.
"Young Miss, Young Master, we've arrived."
The two children alighted and waited near the gate. They were waiting for Nan Si Qiao, who was two carriages away from them. Nan Hua was watching the others came out of the other carriages. They were all wearing good clothing and could be said to be someone of good family.
But of course, she didn't know them.
"Hua'er, Little Luo!" Nan Si Qiao greeted the two of them as she alighted down the carriage.
Behind here were two children wearing dark blue clothes. The first one was around 14 years old and already as tall as his mother. He had tanned skin and thick eyebrows but his face showed smile when he saw the two children. The second one was around 10 to 11 years, slightly older than the twins. He also wore dark blue clothes but his expression looked rigid as he merely nodded at the two of them.
"Aunt! Brother Feng Ao Si, Brother Feng Ao Kuai!" Nan Luo greeted them with smile followed by Nan Hua with her usual cold tone.
The two of them followed their father's surname, Feng, since Nan Si Qiao was married away. Feng Ao Si was the older one while Feng Ao Kuai was the younger one.
"You two sure arrived early," Feng Ao Si commented before he continued with bright smile, "Come and let's play inside. I heard that Old Madam Long specifically prepared the backyard to be our playground this time."
"Really? Then it means I have to play to my heart content!" Nan Luo was also excited.
Feng Ao Kuai looked at his older brother but didn't look excited at all. In his opinion, they were only heading over to celebrate Old Madam Long's birthday party and thus, it was not interesting.
"Come inside and pay attention to your speech."
"Yes, Mother."
"Yes, Aunt!"
Nan Si Qiao smiled at the children response as she led them insides. The servants could only follow from behind and then stayed a distance away from them. After all, servants were not allowed to get inside and participated in the party.
The males and females' area were usually separated but it didn't apply for children. Since Old Madam Long herself had young children, she put the backyard for them to play along with the other ladies there.
Nan Si Qiao looked at her first son. "Ao Si, would you feel awkward inside?"
"Why should I feel awkward?" Feng Ao Si asked back. "I want to play with Luo! It's tiring to stay at the frontline for such a long time!"
"Alright, but you have to be careful to not offend the other children."
"Yes, Mother!"
Nan Si Qiao looked at her first son and felt a bit helpless. While Feng Ao Si was naturally endowed with good martial art talent… his self awareness and intelligence was a bit lacking.
She turned to look at her second son. "Ao Kuai, please take care of your brother."
"Yes, Mother," Feng Ao Kuai replied calmly.
Thus… the one who had to take care of the older one was the younger brother.
