Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 445

Chapter 445 Enemies Meet at Narrow Road (4)

"It's me."

Hearing that voice, Nan Xin's face turned pale. She turned her head and saw Shangguan Die stood there. Even though Shangguan Die's status had fallen, it was still the truth that Shangguan Die was a very brave 'warrior' with her mouth.

Unlike Nan Hua, who was too lazy to argue with Nan Xin, Shangguan Die liked to argue with other people. Shangguan Die also used to argue with Princess Yue to the point that the two of them were termed as mortal enemies.

Even with her status had fallen, Shangguan Family still doted on her.

They didn't seem to care about the fact that her face was disfigured as Shangguan Family was trying their best to keep her in the house. They were also trying hard to find someone of good status who wanted to marry her. Her mother's family also supported her greatly as if she was their sole bloodline and not Shangguan Yi.

"First Young Miss Shangguan," Nan Xin quickly greeted the other party.

Shangguan Die nodded then sat down in the only seat beside Nan Hua on this table. She looked at Nan Xin up and down. "I never know that a mere concubine daughter can be wearing clothes this bright."

Today, Nan Xin was dressed in pink embroidered dress. It had cloud pattern and looked very suitable for a young budding girl like her. However, it was indeed very bright and fancy for a mere concubine daughter. If the one who wore this type of clothes was the main daughter, no one would say anything.

Nan Xin's face turned pale. "My Mother loves me greatly, so she allowed me to wear this dress."

"Is that so?" Shangguan Die chuckled. "It seems that Second Young Miss Nan is very magnanimous and didn't have any qualm to call another woman as your mother so fluently. If one didn't know, they will think that Madam Qu was your birth mother and not….what's that woman's name?"

It was the rule that a concubine child could only call their father's main wife as their mother. It was a harsh rule but every concubine child could only do it. They could only call their birth mother with 'mother' when they were in private.

In front of others, they had to call their father's main wife as 'mother.'

Nan Xin smiled. "Mother had taken care of me very well, so naturally I'll call her as my mother."

Shangguan Die was still smiling, yet her expression seemed a bit harsh considering that her face was scarred beyond recognition. The veil only served to cover up a part of her face and it didn't include the areas around her eyes.

"I see. You seem to respect your mother a lot, but why can't I see the same for your older sister?"

"That's…."

"Or are you saying that you're flashing your dirty linen for the world to see because you care for your sister? I didn't even recall hearing Young Miss Nan ever say that she didn't like her family." Shangguan Die tilted her head. "Oh, I might never hear it but I did think that it's indeed a plausible thing.
