The door opened after quite some time.
"General Nan had fallen asleep." Traveling Doctor Liu looked at the four youngsters in front of him. "You may come in to have a talk with Old Madam Long."
"What Old Madam Long? You're not fit to call me old, Old Liu."
"Isn't that just an address, Old Madam Long?" Traveling Doctor Liu clearly looked like he enjoyed making Old Madam Long annoyed.
At this point, Old Madam Long pulled a long face when she looked at Traveling Doctor Liu. If her first regret was meeting Old Master Nan because of her husband, her second regret was meeting this traveling doctor because of her master. He was equally annoying, very similar to Old Master Nan.
"Grandmother, it's already late. Concubine mothers will be worried if they can't find you." Long Qian Xing cupped his fist.
Old Madam Long snorted. She hated those concubines of her son who looked like they were simply taking place in her house. If not because her son was not here, she would have long wished to kick them out first. They did nothing but create trouble every day.
Thankfully, she didn't have to mourn for a long time each time a concubine died.
"Fine, let's go back. I can't possibly let them destroy the residence just because I'm already old. Ah Long, you have to get married quickly so that I can rest assured of the residence's condition."
Long Qian Xing was helpless when he heard his grandmother's words. Was that really something she asked of a mere 14 years old brat?
Not to mention, Nan Hua was only 10 years old next month.
There were still five to six more years for them to turn adults and could get married legally. He was not really worried about this matter.
Old Madam Long naturally understood her grandson's expression. She snorted and waved her hand. "Come back with me. You really need another lecture about how good having a wife is."
Long Qian Xing: "…" Oh Heaven, why do you give me grandmother who want me to get married so early? Isn't it a crime for such a young body?
I know that I'm already over 20 years old in my mental age, but this body is still young, alright? Not to mention, I don't have any intention of getting married when my fiancée is still so young.
At the side, Lin Yuan was resisting a chuckle.
However, the moment he saw the glare from Long Qian Xing, he could feel chills from deep within his bones. He nearly cursed out loudly.
When they returned to Long Family Residence… he was sure that he would be beaten up until his father couldn't recognize him.
He better seek Song Chuan for help as soon as possible.
"You will still live a long life, Old Madam Long." Traveling Doctor Liu was amused. Even though Old Madam Long often claimed that her body was weak and that she couldn't handle such stress, it was clear that she was perfectly fine. She was only acting because it would be a hassle.
"You better not get involved in this matter, Traveling Doctor Liu." Old Madam Long glared coldly. "Treat that annoying old man well. He's still going to go to the battlefield because of those annoying officials pushing him here and there."
Traveling Doctor Liu waved his hand. "With me here, he'll be as healthy as bull given some time."
"Good."
If Old Master Nan knew that Traveling Doctor Liu was comparing him with a bull, he would have stood up and challenged the other party for a duel. He couldn't accept being compared with that animal!
After the three of them left, Traveling Doctor Liu looked at Feng Ao Kuai and waved his hand. "Come over here, Young Master Feng."
"Doctor Liu."
"I would like to see your pulse. Don't worry, I won't leak out any information about you to anyone." Traveling Doctor Liu saw the hesitation on Feng Ao Kuai's face and assured the young boy.
Feng Ao Kuai had no other choice but to extend his hand and allowed Traveling Doctor Liu to feel his pulse. He didn't really think that this was necessary, but he still wanted to know how his body condition was from the doctor's perspective.
Upon sensing the residue of the poison, Traveling Doctor Liu sighed.
"Old Man Nan is really harsh on you. Have you ever thought of the side effect of consuming such a large amount of poison?"
Feng Ao Kuai furrowed his eyebrows. "Immunity?"
"That's one thing." Traveling Doctor Liu looked at Feng Ao Kuai. "There'll be also residue that can endanger your life if you ingest poison without caution. I'll give you some medicine in a few days to purge those residues out."
"Will there be any side effect?"
"Aside from your immunity reduce by one session, there's none."
Feng Ao Kuai nodded. He looked at the doctor in front of him before turning to look at Nan Hua. "How about Hua'er? Can you heal her?"
"She's similar with you, so you don't have to worry." Traveling Doctor Liu looked at Nan Hua for a moment. "As for her old scar, I'm afraid it's already too late to erase those."
Old scars.
Nan Hua had seen those scars when she took a bath. Even though she couldn't see the one at her back, she could see some marks from her hand and legs. It was not hard to guess that it must be the masterpiece of Concubine Qu and her father.
How much they hated her mother to the point that they purged it all to her would never be known even if she asked them directly.
"Will Grandfather be healthy again?"
"Yes, but I'll have to stay here for the time being."
Nan Hua nodded. "We'll prepare a quarter for you to stay, Traveling Doctor Liu."
"That'll be good. Also, Nan Hua, I would like to ask you something."
"Yes?"
"Is there any quiet place?"
Feng Ao Kuai quickly took the que to show them the way to the next empty quarter before he excused himself.. He had no intention of eavesdropping if it was unnecessary.
