Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

“I’m used to this life.” the voice traveled closer and then the backdoor opened. Sheng Shan Lang was walking with a young woman who looked the same age as Nan Hua. She looked quite similar with Sheng Shan Lang and looked quite pretty. Her dress was ordinary, but it didn’t hide the fact that she looked quite attractive.

The young woman stopped when she saw the few people in her house.

“Rou’er, these are my comrades in the army.” Sheng Shan Lang sighed deeply. “First Young Commander Feng, Second Young Commander Feng, Young Commander Nan, and their servants.” 𝑂𝒱𝒍xt.𝑪𝗈𝓶

The young woman showed a smile. “Thank you everyone for taking care of my brother.”

Sheng Shan Lang: “…” are you my mother?

Nan Luo chuckled lightly while Feng Ao Si was looking at the woman without blinking his eyes. Feng Ao Kuai watched the young woman’s posture and behavior and nodded lightly. While it was not following the noble etiquette, she was quite polite.

Only Nan Hua always looked indifferent.

“This is Sheng Qi Rou, my younger sister. She’s 17 years old this year.” Sheng Shan Lang rubbed his forehead.

“I’ll cook a meal first.” Sheng Qi Rou glanced at her older brother but too lazy to say anything else. Her older brother had sent her letters many times, saying that he wanted to introduce his comrade to her.

After all, he knew very well that Sheng Qi Rou had no interest with the few males in their village. It was not like that they were not good, but Sheng Shan Lang felt that they were not good enough for his younger sister.

Of course, those brothers of his in the village had long chased him, wanting him to introduce his sister to them.

Unfortunately, Sheng Shan Lang had never been moved.

“Alright.” Sheng Shan Lang was helpless.

“Do you need help?”

“It’s fine, you’re all guest.” Sheng Qi Rou showed a smile and then run to the kitchen.

Feng Ao Kuai looked at his older brother, making Feng Ao Si’s scalp numb. He looked at his younger brother and asked, “What?”

“Please be more conscious of your difference in status and gender, brother.”

Feng Ao Si was silent.

Sheng Shan Lang laughed. “While it’s true that there had to be distance between people of different gender, it’s not to the point you have to avoid each other miles away.”

The women who were born in village and relatively low position would naturally not able to avoid meeting people of different gender in their lives. Unlike those noble women who were staying within their residence until the day they married away, peasant women had to work on the field and learned how to take care of their man.

It was because of this that the distance was not that far.

But of course, they were not allowed to be too close or there will be a lot of gossips. No matter what, women’s reputation is very important. They had to keep a sense of measure to avoid being dragged into a whirlpool of rumors and opinions.

“I see.” Feng Ao Si nodded.

The etiquette for nobles and commoners were different and naturally, he had to learn how to adapt. The people he dealt in the future would not only consist of nobles but also those of commoners.

Feng Ao Kuai looked at Sheng Shan Lang and asked calmly, “I hope you will not pressure others to do what you want without considering their opinion.”

“Do I look that low in your eyes?” Sheng Shan Lang arched his eyebrows. He laughed. “Don’t worry, I’m not that tactless.”

Looking at the carefree man in front of him, Feng Ao Kuai didn’t change his expression. If one had to say, Sheng Shan Lang was somewhat similar to Feng Ao Si, but he knew how to conduct himself better than Feng Ao Si.

Perhaps, it was because of the difference in their background and how they grew up.

“Ao Kuai.”

“Brother, you shouldn’t look at things with tinted glass.” Feng Ao Kuai glanced at his older brother. The gaze he gave was more than enough to shut Feng Ao Si’s mouth.

After living with Feng Ao Kuai for so many years, there was no way that Feng Ao Si would not notice when Feng Ao Kuai was serious. The matter of marriage was something that would affect the rest of his life.

No matter what, Feng Ao Kuai could not treat it lightly.

He would rather let his older brother stay single rather than marrying an annoying woman to him.

Feng Ao Si shut his mouth obediently.

“I have no other intention.” Sheng Shan Lang raised his hand. He smiled. “I just got along well with Ao Si, so I thought that if my sister like him and he likes her, it’ll be good.”

“It better be that way.” Feng Ao Kuai stayed calm and emotionless.

Nan Luo blinked his eyes.

He had the feeling that when Feng Ao Kuai had a daughter, the future son in law would have to face the fierce Feng Ao Kuai. Uh wait, Feng Family was strong in yang, so the problem of whether there would be a girl in the next generation of their family was also a question.

It didn’t take long for Sheng Qi Rou to finish cooking. It seemed that she had guessed that her brother wouldn’t be able to stand it and would be besieged by the others. After all, Sheng Family only consist the two of them and there were no one else.

“The food is ready.” Sheng Qi Rou looked at her brother. “I hope I cook enough for everyone.”

“Ao Si is a big eater, but I’m not sure about the rest.” Sheng Shan Lang shrugged.

“Don’t worry, we don’t usually eat that much,” Nan Luo interjected. Anyway, he was only here to watch and helped Feng Ao Kuai. But honestly, with Feng Ao Kuai’s high battle power, he was sure that he would not be of much help.

Well, it was good even if he only came here to take a look then.

“Let’s eat.”

“Ok.”

They ate silently.
