Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 30

The carriage stopped before their gate and Old Madam Long slowly walked out of the carriage. She was already pretty old, so there were two old maids who helped from the sides. They were being careful to make sure that she would not fall.

Normally, the daughter or granddaughter would be the one to help her. But since Old Madam Long only have one son and her daughter in law had passed away, it was impossible. As for Long Xu Nian, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Old Madam Long didn't even want to see her.

"Welcome, Old Madam Long," Old Master Nan said coldly.

Old Madam Long laughed lightly. "Thank you for welcoming us to your residence, Old Master Nan."

Who's welcoming you?

Old Master Nan chortled in his mind but he kept his expression firm. He didn't want to talk to her if it was unnecessary, but he knew that he had to keep up an appearance. Hmph, just for today, then.

"Come inside."

"There's no need, the main courtyard alone is enough." Old Madam Long passed a sidelong glance at Long Xu Nian, who stood stiffly by the side. "What are you waiting for? Come here!"

Long Xu Nian's face was dark, yet she kept a smile on her face. It was just… the smile was so tragic that one would think she was crying instead of smiling. Even the onlookers shook their head at her pitiful appearance.

"Grandmother," Long Xu Nian said in soft tone.

"What did I tell you to say?" Old Madam Long looked at Long Xu Nian with indifferent gaze.

Long Xu Nian bit her lower lips. She knew that if she apologized in front of everyone, her reputation that was already in tatters would only become worse. However, if she didn't do so, her grandmother would surely make things even harder for her.

She was already suffering enough in the residence.

"I'm sorry, Miss Nan. I failed to supervise the servants in the residence." Long Xu Nian bowed down to Nan Hua.

Old Master Nan looked at the situation and nodded lightly, feeling slightly satisfied with the methods. It seemed that this Old Madam Long truly knew what she was supposed to do.
