“Miss, Old Madam ask you to see her,” Xiao Yun informed.

“Yes.”

Nan Hua stood up and walked to Old Madam Long’s quarter. Both Old Madam Long and Old Master Nan visited her from time to time and Nan Hua could tell that the two of them were happy for their great grandchildren from the bottom of their heart.

She herself is also happy.

As for why she was being called…

Nan Hua had some guesses.

It didn’t take long for Nan Hua to reach Old Madam Long’s quarter and saw that there was a middle aged man there.

“Nan Hua greets grandmother,” Nan Hua called out politely when she saw Old Madam Long. She could still remember the etiquette needed when she was facing her grandmother and others.

There was no way she could forget about this in the first place.

The middle aged man raised his head when he heard Nan Hua’s voice while Old Madam Long smiled and said, “Take a seat, Hua’er. This is my third disciple, Yue Kong Liang.”

“Yue Kong Liang has met Madam Long,” the middle aged man greeted.

Yue?

Nan Hua blinked her eyes before remembering that the Yue Family was a newly risen family in Cheng City. To be exact, they were a branch family coming from other place and settled down in Cheng City within the past few years.

She forgot the exact time because she was not sure.

But this Yue Kong Liang has been in Cheng City for a long time because he used to be the Imperial Doctor who attended Emperor Yang Zhou. It seemed that he had quit his work and chose to stay in Cheng City.

“Master Yue is too polite,” Nan Hua replied.

Yue Kong Liang smiled and then turned to look at Old Madam Long. “Master, is it really necessary to bring your favorite granddaughter?”

“When you come here, have you thought that I’m no longer suitable to go out?” Old Madam Long asked while rolling his eyes.

“Hahaha.” Yue Kong Liang could only laugh with embarrassment and didn’t answer. He didn’t know who else could come to help him, so he could only come to his master for help.

“Hua’er, my disciple’s wife is pregnant when she’s already over forty years old and about to reach 50 years old in a year or two,” Old Madam Long said slowly. “I’m sure you understand what this meant.” Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novèlfire.net

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and nodded in understanding.

Women in this era was used to the women having children when they were young. At most, it would be when they were thirty years old or approaching forty. Because at this time, their bodies were still strong.

Well, there were also cases when these women have children when they were younger but Nan Hua had no intention to talk about it.

It was useless to care anyway.

But it was rare for these women to get pregnant at such an old age. Not to mention, because of the lack of medical equipment, it is very dangerous for women to get pregnant at such an advance age.

This was something that Nan Hua understood very clearly.

For women, childbirth is a moment of life and death.

At this moment, they would be stepping on the gate of life and death and if their own body was not healthy enough, they might not be able to survive.

For a woman who was about to enter menopause, it is indeed a bit dangerous.

“How long?” Nan Hua asked.

“It’s been eight months,” Yue Kong Liang replied with some embarrassment.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and then looked at Old Madam Long in confusion. Since it was almost time for the mother to give birth, is there any need for her help?

“The nutrition and all has been arranged by Yue Kong Liang,” Old Madam Long said calmly. As a doctor, her disciples was qualified enough to prepare the meals needed to fulfill the nutrition needed by his wife.

There was no need for other doctors to help in this matter.

“I need to trouble you to help when the mother is about to give birth since I can’t come,” Old Madam Long said kindly.

“Grandma, I’m not a midwife,” Nan Hua said slowly.

She might have already given birth to a child herself, but this didn’t mean that she knew how to help other people deliver their children, right?

Old Madam Long looked at Nan Hua helplessly and said, “There’s no other option but for you to go and help. I don’t know anyone else who could help to stabilize her condition should a complication occurs.”

Nan Hua was silent for a moment.

She thought for a moment and guessed that Old Madam Long should have her reasons as to why she wanted him to get close to the Yue Family.

The Yue Family should be from Qi Xi Kingdom in the past, right?

But she was not entirely sure because her investigation was not complete and she had no time to care for everyone.

“I understand, Grandma.”

Old Madam Long glanced at Yue Kong Liang who quickly gave supplementary knowledge about his wife’s situation.

…

After Yue Kong Liang left, Nan Hua remained sitting. She looked at Old Madam Long calmly because she could guess that her grandmother should have reasons as to why she wanted him to help.

“His cousin is one of the few people under Song Chuan who had the highest position,” Old Madam Long said calmly. “It’s impossible to get close to him easily, but maintaining good relationship with his relatives is possible.”

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and understood what Old Madam Long meant.

Song Chuan is actually a person under Long Qian Xing, but there were many nobles under him who didn’t want to listen to his words. If the Long Family could influence some people, they might be more willing to work together with him.

It’s just politics.

But it was used through different methods.
