Nan Hua walked into the courtyard and soon found Lin Xia was sitting at the backyard with a middle aged woman in front of her. They were watching a pot of plant and Lin Xia was telling some things to the middle aged woman.
*rustle*
Hearing the noise, Lin Xia raised her head. Seeing Nan Hua coming, her eyes flickered, trying to remember who she is. Thankfully, Lin Xia rarely met with other people, so there were not many people whom she had to remember.
"Sister." The middle aged woman saw this person and frowned, not knowing what she wanted from Lin Xia.
"Miao’er, you go inside first and accompany your daughter. I want to talk with my junior sister," Lin Xia said and patted the middle aged woman.
The middle aged woman, Lin Miao, was surprised when she heard the word ’junior sister.’ But she also remembered the kind hearted master of Lin Xia who helped her to get out of the Lin Family back then, so she nodded and walked inside.
"Senior Sister Lin," Nan Hua greeted after Lin Miao walked inside.
"Twelfth Junior Sister," Lin Xia greeted back. "Your name..?"
"I’m Nan Hua, the young miss of the Nan Family and the madam of the Long Family now," Nan Hua introduced herself.
Lin Xia nodded. She understood that the second identity was Nan Hua’s identity after her marriage. In any case, she was really not interested in the relationship between her junior sister and brothers.
"It’s been a while."
The last time the two see each other, Nan Hua was hiding her appearance and dressed as a male in the Lin Family. At that time, Lin Xia had to say that she was very surprised, but she also recognized the token that Nan Hua showed.
The similar token with the one Lin Xia had.
Only the number was different.
"Yes. I heard from Fourth Senior Brother that you’re here, Second Senior Sister," Nan Hua replied and walked closer.
"Indeed." Lin Xia looked at the plant beside her and lightly tapped the leaves. "Shall we take a walk, Junior Sister Nan?"
"Please."
The two of them walked to the back garden. It could be said that Great General Wei was truly treating Lin Xia well and allowed her to do various experiments here. Most of these plants were medical plants and Nan Hua could recognize them.
"They’re growing very well," Nan Hua said, somewhat in amazement. She knew that some of these plants had strict growing requirement. But in Lin Xia’s backyard, they were all thriving and living well.
"Tending to the medicinal plants is one of the most relaxing thing to do," Lin Xia said slowly and patted the plants. "Do you want to learn, Junior Sister Nan?"
"Yes, Senior Sister Lin." Nan Hua nodded.
While Nan Hua did learn many medical knowledge from Traveling Doctor Liu and also through her own study, there were not many knowledge about tending to the medicinal plants and growing them.
