"Aunt, they will be back soon," Nan Hua answered softly.
Nan Si Qiao looked at her niece, who had grown slightly taller and looked more matured than before. She also felt distressed for her niece, who had to fight at the frontline like this and couldn't enjoy a normal life like how a normal lady would.
These kids are truly....
But then again, they were approaching adulthood in terms of age, but Nan Si Qiao couldn't help but thinking of them as children.
In her eyes, they were always the same young brat as they used to be.
"You're not answering me." Nan Si Qiao looked at Nan Hua and sighed. She raised her hand and patted Nan Hua's head tenderly. The young woman didn't resist and even leaned slightly to make it easier for Nan Si Qiao.
"Would you attend as Nan Hua or as Adjutant Nan?"
"Adjutant Nan."
Nan Hua's real identity was a bit unsuitable to appear at this time. Nan Hua didn't want to create unnecessary trouble that would require her to clean up too much later on. It was already more than enough that she attended.
As for which identity she picked, that was not that important.
Nan Si Qiao nodded. "I hope you can take care of yourself well. When you want to go back, Aunt will accompany you."
"How about Feng Ao Qian?"
"That brat should be old enough to travel around by then." Nan Si Qiao laughed. Her third son was no longer that young by that time, so she wouldn't be so distressed to bring him around. Anyway, she just wanted to accompany her niece rather than allowing Nan Hua to just stay alone.
Nan Hua was silent for a moment then nodded. "Thank you, Aunt."
Let's just leave it for tomorrow.
"Go to rest."
"I will." Nan Luo grinned and then headed to his temporary room.
There was also an additional room that was prepared for Nan Hua. After all, Nan Si Qiao would definitely not allow Nan Hua to stay in the same room with Nan Luo like what she usually do in the military.
Back in the military camp, no one knew that Nan Hua is a girl. Thus, no one ever complained about this matter.
But of course, if they knew, there might need some adjustment.
...
The night passed by quietly.
The next day, it was the festive day. Nan Hua watched from the side as her older cousin was forced to dress up neatly and then had to ride the horse to pick up his bride. The villagers were following happily while giving their congratulation.
She followed and watched Sheng Qi Rou walked out with her brother watching with a forced smile. Even though he was the one who invited Feng Ao Si to come, it seemed that he himself was also a bit reluctant to see his sister away.
However, there was also some relief.
At the very least, his sister looked happy.
The procession went back to Feng Ao Si's home along with the dowry that Sheng Shan Lang carried. There were no maidservants here, so Sheng Shan Lang simply took it by himself. He didn't trust the other women in the village to bring it.
While these people were usually good, he didn't want to take the chance of them fishing in troubled water and stole what he had prepared for his sister. Anyway, the dowry was only a few boxes. With his strength, it was easy for him to carry it.
In Feng Ao Si's house, the ceremony continued and then there was the banquet. Nan Hua also eat some food but she refused the wine.
The last segment was for Feng Ao Si to stay in his bride's room and naturally everyone left tactfully.
No one wanted to disturb his first night.
