Zhang Lin drove the carriage while two of You Nian Pavilion’s guards followed outside. Inside the carriage sat Lan You Nian, Lan Qu, and Lan Wu.

“Young miss, is Tutor He particularly stern?” Lan Wu seemed hyperactive as she constantly moved around from time to time. Remembering that very soon they will be meeting their young miss’s maternal grandfather, she felt a little excited like she was seeing her own relatives. Tutor He is the relative that the young miss has affirmed. He was different from Lan Jian Jun.

“What? He may look like quite an old-fashioned person, but he is a good elder!” Lan You Nian thinking of grandfather’s performance that night, it really could contend with shifu. Lan You Nian felt that if in the future shifu came to the capital, if he could become acquainted with grandfather, the two of them will definitely become confidants.

“Speaking of which, Tutor He is the only person who cares about young miss all these years” Lan Qu couldn’t help lamenting. Before, she believed that everyone had abandoned the young miss, only in the end did she learn that everyone wasn’t even aware of the young miss’s disappearance. This was the most infuriating!

The carriage suddenly stopped. The sound of swords clashing drifted from outside. Lan You Nian stepped down the carriage and saw the carriage arrived at an alley without any signs of human habitation. Meanwhile, Zhang Lin was entangled with Feng Yi Xuan’s shadow guard An Yi. Within a few moves, An Yi defeated Zhang Lin’s group of three.

Zhang Lin and others instantly wanted to vomit blood. It’s one blow after the other ah! Last night, they were defeated by a female from young miss’s side. Today, how come there comes another one?

“What’s the matter?” Ever since Lan You knew Feng Yi Xuan presented no harm to her, she was not as resistant, but she merely considered him as an acquaintance that’s all.

“Miss Lan, master invites you to see the fireworks in the south of the city tomorrow!” An Yi was inwardly pleased. If he succeeded in this matter, master will definitely praise him again, then either he can take a vacation or get a reward. He was excited just thinking about it.

“Not going!” Lan You Nian didn’t spare An Yi a glance and dove back into the carriage. She felt that this Feng Yi Xuan became weirder and weirder. Why would he invite her to look at fireworks for no reason at all? Go watch fireworks with that mobile ice-cube? Are you certain she won’t be frozen into an ice-cube too?

An Yi was depressed. An Yi’s heart was injured. An Yi felt that he had no face to see his own master. He felt that master will most assuredly make an example out of him……

Zhang Lin looked at the man who was clearly very strong in martial arts, yet stood in front of the carriage with an expression of tearless grief. He suddenly felt very strange. “Zhang Lin, what are you waiting for?” Lan You Nian’s voice came from within the carriage. Zhang Lin glanced at An Yi with sympathy. Just like that, the carriage rushed by An Yi’s side.

Zhang Lin felt that even the most formidable people who met his family’s young miss became no good. Sure enough, only following young miss will there be meat to eat. Look, such a powerful man, didn’t he still look so pitiful abandoned by young miss?

The carriage parked in front of a very simple residence. The simple plaque had the former Emperor’s personally written nomination of “He Manor” intended to commend Tutor He’s uprightness and tenacity, and having taught several qualified emperors. As soon as Lan You Nian got off the carriage, she noticed Tutor He’s manor was very simple, without too much decoration and carvings. Her grandfather seemed to be a really honest official with clean hands.

Standing outside the manor was a seventeen-year-old man, wearing purple robes with his long hair bundled up. In this ancient world that produced beautiful men, this male wasn’t very good-looking and can only be considered comely, but perhaps because of being born in a royal tutor’s family, he had a scholarly air about him, but because he himself was from the military camps, so that scholarly air carried hints of masculine flavor. It was because of this temperament that it made his appearance give people a comfortable feeling.

“Nian’er meimei!” As soon as Lan You Nian stepped off the carriage, the man waiting there came to the carriage and led Lan You Nian into He manor.

“Biaoge!” Lan You Nian softly acknowledged. The man leading her was called He Chu Yang, he was Tutor He’s grandson, her own cousin brother.

“Nian’er meimei actually recognized me. I was afraid Nian’er meimei won’t like me. Grandfather has been waiting at home for a long time, just waiting to see Nian’er meimei!” He Chu Yang, ever since he understood things, he knew he had an adorable biaomei, but he only saw biaomei a few times. Until he understood things, he noticed grandfather would look worried all day. Finally, he learned that his own biaomei went missing, life or death unknown. So, imperceptibly, he always felt a little more pity for this biaomei. Moreover, he was also a soldier under Ming wang. The little sister that Lan Mo Xian hung on his lips all day, that was also his little sister.

“Nian’er, how come you only came now to see grandfather?” As soon as Lan You Nian stepped into the hall, she saw her own family’s grandfather running over to her. The entire person was full of vitality. You absolutely couldn’t see that same grief from in the palace.

“Grandfather, slow down, hasn’t Nian’er come to see you now?” Lan You Nian supported her own grandfather, like a little girl acting spoiled.

“Yes father, if in the future you miss Nian’er, just let Nian’er live here for a few days!” Following Tutor He out was a man, about 30-40 years of age. His entire person was very refined. The eyebrows were a shadow of Tutor He’s.

“Nian’er, I am your uncle. When you were little, I often went over to see you. Don’t know if you still remember?” He Chun looked at Lan You Nian with moist eyes. His little sister’s only child. this child has grown up. She was no longer that little infant in swaddling clothes. From now on, their He manor was her home.

“Uncle” Towards those who sincerely cared about her, Lan You Nian will treat sincerely in return.Moreover, towards He family’s three men, Lan You Nian did not use the same old empty courtesy. Although Tutor He was an old-fashioned man, it did not include his own granddaughter. Those codes of ethics were not useful for his granddaughter.

“Yang’er ah, you can’t be wild anymore in the future. You must look after your little sister understand?” He Chun threw a glare at his own son, then immediately changed his face when he looked at Lan You Nian. Seeing this, it made He Chu Yan feel that he was definitely not biologically related.

“This must be Nian’er, quick, let auntie see. My poor child. How much bitterness have you suffered that you are so thin?” From outside the entrance came in a plainly dressed married woman wearing a bright red rose-acacia. The entire person exuded a certain Jiangnan female’s gentleness. This was He Chun’s wife, Xu shi.

“Auntie” Lan You Nian called out endearingly. This one call instantly ignited Xu shi‘s heart of motherly love. Originally, Xu-shi very much wished for a daughter, but to no avail, her body was a letdown and gave birth to a boy who only knew to make her angry all day. Now seeing the clever and endearing Lan You Nian, the more she looked the more she liked. She almost didn’t let tears fall to express her heart of motherly love.

Xu shi repeatedly acknowledged, then to He Chu Yang who was still stupidly standing there, she scolded, “Why didn’t you have the kitchen bring out something good to eat? Bring out my pastries! Nian’er has already been here so long. You as the older brother, don’t you know how to take care of a bit more?”
