Nan Xiao's eyes stayed on the young boy for a moment, and soon ran to the wall.

She still understands basic etiquette and etiquette. It is impossible for her to go up and pinch a stranger's face as soon as they meet her. That would mean she is too uneducated.

Butler Xu reminded him from outside: "Master Hou, is this inappropriate? There are still guests in the main hall..."

"It's okay, she is thick-skinned and not afraid of embarrassment."

Nan Hong also walked into the main hall as he spoke. At that time, a couple inside looked towards him. They were about thirty years old, dressed simply and smartly, and each held a sword. They looked like a couple walking in the rivers and lakes.

Kind of knight.

The beautiful woman has a heroic appearance and a kind of courage that only belongs to men. She glanced at Nan Xiao who was standing in the corner with some emotion in her eyes.

"Senior brother, Xiao'er has grown so big. The last time I saw her, she was still a baby."

Nan Xiao poked the wall with her finger and turned around immediately after hearing this.

This person actually knows her?

Nan Hong waved his hands indifferently, "The older you get, the less important you become. You don't even have the look that a girl should have."

The beautiful woman said: "Some people have a free and unrestrained personality, so why do you have to confine her to the back house? In my opinion, she is suitable for traveling in the world, just like her mother back then.

…”

"Do you know my mother?" Nan Xiao suddenly interrupted her, feeling a little excited. She took three steps and then two at a time, almost rushing over.

Nan Hong yelled angrily: "Just stand there in front of the wall and think about your mistakes!"

Nan Xiao ignored his words, ran up to the beautiful woman, and took her arm affectionately.

"Madam, do you know my mother? What does she look like? Where is she now?"

Her voice was clear and crisp, and there was a cute little pear hole on her little face. It was only then that she had a little childishness and ignorance that was unique to her age.

A child without a mother always fantasizes in his mind about what his mother looks like, and asks himself in his heart day by day, why doesn’t his mother come back to see him?

The beautiful woman glanced at Nan Hong, who looked unhappy, and knew that he couldn't bring her up anymore, so she could only rub the little girl's head and sigh softly.

Nan Xiao lowered her eyes slightly to cover up the disappointment in her eyes.

The beautiful woman also changed the subject at this time, "Senior brother, we agreed at the beginning that we would book a wedding for our two children. Now I have brought Yan'er here to fulfill my promise. You are not allowed to default on your debt."

Hearing this, Nan Hong stroked his beard and laughed heartily, but he didn't respond at all. His scrutinizing eyes fell on the young man standing next to the couple.

"I've met Uncle Nan."

Shi Yan was as tall as Nan Xiao. He had handsome features and a face as fair as a piece of jade. His manners were well behaved and it was impossible to make a mistake.

He was used to seeing his daughter who had always been disobedient to him, and suddenly seeing a well-behaved and quiet little boy really made Nan Hong feel a little more fond of her.

"It turns out that this is the son of Junior Brother Xiao and Junior Sister Shi. He is really sensible. How is his talent? Have you practiced martial arts? What state has he reached now?"

Nan Hong went to squeeze his shoulders out of habit, but found that there was no trace of true energy in his body, and was slightly startled.

He thought that the son born from these two well-known and well-established people in the world should be a good young man who practiced martial arts, but he did not expect that he would turn out to be an ordinary person.

Without martial arts, it means that you will not be able to protect your daughter in the future.

Nan Hong's initial enthusiasm to fulfill his promise was extinguished in an instant.

His hand was so strong in that moment that Shi Yan turned pale and coughed violently on the spot.

"Cough cough cough——"

Nan Hong quickly let go of his hand and ordered Butler Xu to call the doctor.

The couple were a little flustered when they saw this, but they quickly calmed down and cooperated.

Shi Yan hurriedly held his son on his lap and patted his back to calm him down. Xiao Cheng took out a small blue porcelain bottle and stuffed a pill into his mouth.

The pill seemed to have a soothing effect, and Shi Yan's coughing gradually became quieter. Just when everyone thought he was cured, he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, frightening everyone present.

The couple instantly panicked.

"Yan'er!"

"What can we do? Husband, this medicine doesn't work. Doctor Li happened to have something important to deal with and didn't follow us." Shi Yan said worriedly.

"Don't worry, Brother Nan has already sent someone to ask for a doctor. Our banquet will be fine. If it doesn't work, I will go and find Doctor Li."

Shi Yan fell weakly into his mother's arms, his face was completely pale, and he frowned tightly, as if he was enduring some great pain.

Shi Yan, who had always had a tough personality, couldn't help but his eyes turned red, and he hugged Shi Yan in his arms tighter.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way."

Nan Xiao hurried in with a small medicine box on her back. The scene just now was so chaotic that no one noticed that she had left.

Hearing this voice, Shi Yan, who was enduring severe pain in his chest for no apparent reason, reluctantly opened his eyes just a slit, trying to see the person clearly.

But everything in front of me was hazy and blurry, and I couldn't see clearly.

He could vaguely feel the feeling of the warm fingertips on his wrist to check for pulse, and a strong impulse and desire in his heart made him want to grab this person's hand.

However, he has no strength at all now.

Seeing Nan Xiao taking out a silver needle and about to inject him, Nan Hong quickly stopped him and said, "You have only learned medical skills for five months. You must not act recklessly."

He came from Yaowang Valley, so he was naturally good at medicine. When he was young, he traveled around the world and was known as a minor miracle doctor. However, he later gave up medicine and became a martial artist. He no longer cared about medical matters and became more and more interested in medicine.

Feeling unfamiliar.

Based on experience alone, he felt that Shi Yan's illness was not simple and was a sign of poisoning, so he did not dare to let his daughter treat it casually.

"The reason why he is what he is now is all because of you!"

Nan Xiao didn't have a good look on Nan Hong. For the first time in her life, she felt that this bad old man was really annoying, and she returned the words he scolded her before.

"You are such a big man, and you don't know how to pay attention to your actions. You are really a person who succeeds only in failure. How can you be successful in the future?"

Nan Hong: "..."

Shi Yan was covering his mouth with his little hand and coughing. When he heard these words, he was suddenly amused, and there was an indescribable joy in his voice.

Nan Xiao raised her eyes and looked at him. After smiling, she was greeted by a cough that was even more violent than before. She had no doubt that if he continued to cough like this, he would probably cough out his lungs.

Shi Yan couldn't bear his son's suffering: "Xiao'er, are you sure you can cure him?"

"No, he is suffering from heart disease and poison. He has only a few years to live. I can only use acupuncture to temporarily suppress the toxins in his body to prevent him from feeling so uncomfortable. As for the heart disease, there is nothing I can do.
