Chapter 670: Qu Family ArrivalThe two girls walked into the library.


    Nan Xin didn''t really like reading, so she only looked around before unwillingly picked one book to read to pass the time. The topics of these books were not suitable for a young maiden as it mostly contained things that boys had to learn in order to be an official.


    On the other hand, Nan Hua swept her gaze across the books, looking at them one by one. She had read them all. Her grandfather had prepared the same set of books for her and her brother in Nan Family Residence.


    Nan Hua''s gazended on the stack of bamboo scrolls at the side.


    They looked abandoned.


    She casually took one and read the title. Upon seeing the writing, Nan Hua paused. She could recognize this writing as her mother''s. Ever since those images shed in her mind, she had also noticed the distinctive writing of her mother.


    Bold and stubborn.


    Those were the most suitable words to describe her mother''s handwriting. Despite being a woman who was confined within the residence, Madam Nan has always been a stubborn woman with her own views and way of doing things.


    Opening the scroll, Nan Hua began to read the content. It was actually some notes that Madam Nan had made for Nan Shu Cheng.


    Nan Shu Cheng got married before he passed the Imperial Examination.


    It meant that during that time, it was Madam Nan who helped him with his study so that he would be able to pass the examination.


    Putting the bamboo scroll back, Nan Hua looked around once more. She finally reached the back and saw a basket on the ground with several stack of bamboo scrolls ced in the open position.


    Crouching down, Nan Hua moved the basket a bit and knocked the ground.


    Peng!


    Hearing the faint hollow sound, Nan Hua silently moved the wood away and looked inside. She saw several bamboo scrolls inside and took one of them, reading it quickly. Her eyes shed when she saw the content.


    Nan Shu Cheng might have thought that it would be safe in the library because he rarelye here again.


    After all, the first ce to be searched if there was something wrong with him would be the study. The library where he used to study would be searched too, but it wouldn''t be as meticulous as his study.


    How scheming.


    It was no wonder that Nan Shu Cheng still managed to hold onto his current position. He did have some capabilities that will allow him to stand firm in his position as long as he didn''t make any blunder.


    Nan Hua put the scroll back into the ce and covered it with the wood and the basket once more.


    There was no need for her to interfere.


    What should happen will happen.


    After it was done, Nan Hua returned to the other ce and looked at the notes her mother had made. She decided to read those. It was not easy for her mother to prepare all of those notes and looking at how she described everything so clearly, it could be said that Madam Nan was very intelligent.


    For someone who could help Nan Shu Cheng to obtain high ranking position, how low her intelligent would be. And after Madam Nan''s death, Nan Shu Cheng hadn''t actually risen in his position until recently.


    It was only during the early years of his career that he managed to obtain promotion by promotion.


    As Nan Hua picked thest scroll, she noticed that there was one bamboo strip that snapped. It seemed to have been held too tightly. Looking at the content, Nan Hua noticed the date written at the top.


    This was thest bamboo scroll her mother wrote.


    It was not finished. And based on the date, it was written 7 years ago. During that time, the rtionship between Nan Shu Cheng and Madam Nan hadpletely soured. And this note might not bepleted because the two had quarrel.


    There was mark of ink at the corner.


    Nan Hua looked at the bamboo scroll for a moment before putting it away. She was about to leave when she heardmotion from outside. Momentster, several women around her age came into the library.


    "So you two are here. How impolite of you to note and greet us!" one of them said in displeased tone.


    The second one looked at the two girls and snorted. "Aunt Qu had said that the two girls are busy, but from the way it looks like, you''re doing nothing but waste your time in the library, reading unimportant things."


    "First Young Miss Qu, Second Young Miss Qu, please don''t say that. We didn''t know that you''ll being and choose this time to read because First Sister had long wanted to pay a visit to the library." Nan Xin curtsied. "If we know that you two will arrive, we''ll definitely not pick this time."


    While Nan Xin''s words sounded polite, it was inevitably pointing at Nan Hua to be the one who wanted to stay in the library. No matter how much Concubine Mei warned her daughter to try making peace with Nan Hua, how could Nan Xin fully do it?


    Whenever Nan Xin saw Nan Hua, she was always reminded that her face was inferior and her status couldn''t bepared to the other party. It was really hard for her to stay calm in such situation, making Nan Xin wish that she could be born in different time and with different status.


    She hated this status of hers.


    Nan Hua looked at the two girls'' arrival calmly. She didn''t know their names before but with Nan Xin''s words, she recognized the two girls'' identity. First Young Miss Qu, Qu Yu Nie and Second Young Miss Qu, Qu Yu Ni.


    The two of them were Madam Qu''s nieces in Qu Family who had the closest rtionship to her.


    "Is that so?" Nan Hua asked as she looked at the two girls, her tone waszy and indifferent.
