Chapter 499 I’m not Really Weak, But There Are Many People Who Want to Protect Me

Even before Nan Hua entered Long Family Residence, Old Madam Long was already so overprotective of her. When she entered Long Family Residence, wouldn't it be even more so?

Many ladies were jealous.

If they were not jealous, they would be very jealous.

Who among them who had married didn't find it difficult to please their mother in law? They had to rack their brains and worked on whatever was possible in order to make sure that their mother in law wouldn't make things difficult for them.

But Nan Hua had all of them on a silver platter.

If only it was possible, they really wanted to be her.

Nan Hua felt that she might attract everyone's attention and hatred if this continued. She reached her hand and patted Old Madam Long's hand. "Grandmother, it's fine. Her Highness is a just and benevolent person. She won't make things difficult for a little lady like me."

Old Madam Long looked at Nan Hua as if she wanted to chide her stupid remark. However, she could only helplessly nod.

"Fine, if that's what you want."

Empress Dowager Mei's lips twitched. This seemed like a show between the two of them. If she didn't know that the two of them hadn't interacted with each other before this based on her research, she might have suspected that they would have planned this.

What she didn't know was that the two of them didn't really need to plan this before.

Whatever Old Madam Long planned, Nan Hua would follow.

"There's no need for that." Empress Dowager Mei quickly stepped back. She snorted. "Aijia felt that the air is a bit stuffy here. How about if we admire the flowers outside first, madams?"

"That will be a great choice, Your Highness."

"Your Highness is wise."

The other noble ladies also chimed in to give pleasantries to Empress Dowager Mei. They acted as if they had to hurry and give the best praise or they wouldn't be able to live well. Thus, many noble ladies were outside, following Empress Dowager Mei.

Nan Hua looked at Old Madam Long and lowered her eyes. "Granddaughter had troubled Grandmother."

"What trouble?" Old Madam Long patted Nan Hua's hand tenderly. "It's no trouble at all. As long as you're well, it's not a trouble at all."

Looking at the genuine eyes filled with care and love from Old Madam Long, Nan Hua felt her heart was warming up. Old Madam Long also care this much for the original Nan Hua as there were some scenes when Old Madam Long and the original Long Qian Xing arguing because of her.

It was clear that Old Madam Long might have only cared for her because she was her grandson's fiancée at first, but she came to care for her more. When the original Long Qian Xing finally broke the marriage agreement, he made sure that she was not lacking anything and the fault lies on him because he fell for another person.

He was taking care of her reputation.

Old Madam Long would not press her grandson, but she felt pity for the original Nan Hua because she really liked that young lady.

Right now, Nan Hua had silently added Old Madam Long's name into the list of people whom she would treat well. She might not be her blood related family members, but the care that Old Madam Long gave to her exceeded that even most people could possibly give.

The reason?

No matter how powerful Long Family was, offending Empress Dowager Mei wouldn't reflect so well on them.
