Just by playing several games, Feng Ao Kuai felt he had learnt a lot.

"We\'re going to rest here. Set up the tent!" Old Master Nan\'s voice boomed from outside.

Nan Hua raised her head and looked around. She noticed that they were in a rather spacious area and there were also plenty of tall trees around them. Looking at the area, she could guess that this was indeed a good place to rest.

"I lost." Feng Ao Kuai sighed. In the end, the game ended with four losses and one win from him. Nan Hua only let him win on the second game and after that, he lost three times consecutively.

"Brats, go out and hunt!"

"Yes!" Nan Luo and Feng Ao Si immediately jumped out of the carriage with excitement. They were already feeling so sore after staying in the carriage and could only sit down. Even though they were talking with each other, they didn\'t like to have nothing to do and could only stay there.

Now that they could hunt, of course they were excited.

"Hua\'er and Ah Kuai can stay behind." Old Master Nan noticed that they were all going to hunt. He only gave that instruction because he knew that Nan Luo and Feng Ao Si couldn\'t stay silent. "How about helping to prepare the food?"

"Yes."

Feng Ao Kuai turned to look at Nan Hua. "Do you know how?"

"A bit." Nan Hua passed another look at Feng Ao Kuai. Since he decided to follow her, Nan Hua noticed that Feng Ao Kuai began to speak more and more. Though, the sentences were mostly short.

"Ok, I\'ll help you."

They walked to the servants and helped to skin the animals and separate the bones and also the meat. Feng Ao Kuai was skilled since he had learned survival skill due to his father\'s insistence. Nan Hua herself was slower but her movement carried some kind of elegance.

Feng Ao Kuai watched in quite an awe. "Have you do this before?"

"Yes, with Luo."

"I see."

Their sentences were always cut short. Even the servants around them felt a bit helpless when they saw that the two of them were silent. They really wondered whether the two of them would be able to get along like this or not.

"Young Commander Long."

The sudden greeting startled Feng Ao Kuai. He turned his head and saw Long Qian Xing was walking in their direction. He arched his eyebrows. "Young Commander Long."

"Second Young Master Feng, First Miss Nan," Long Qian Xing greeted the two of them in accordance of their status.

Feng Ao Kuai couldn\'t be called to be part of Nan Family, at least, based on the status. Family lineage would follow the father and his father was General Feng. While he was still part of Nan Family because of his mother, others could only call him as part of Feng Family.

"Brother Long," Nan Hua greeted back.

Long Qian Xing smiled faintly when he heard her greetings. He looked at the pile of food in front of the two brats. "What do you make?"

"Roasted meat and some stir fry vegetables," Nan Hua replied softly. There were not many ingredients in this place, so she made do. The vegetables would turn bad after some time, so she chose to cook them first.

"Can I taste it?"

Nan Hua pushed the plate to Long Qian Xing and he used the chopsticks to taste one. The sweet and crisp taste exploded in his mouth. He nodded. "You\'re a good cook."

"Thank you."

"Young Commander Long! What are you doing here?" Nan Luo rushed over when he saw Long Qian Xing came near them. He had just finished hunting and thus tossed the two rabbits that he caught to the servants.

Long Qian Xing chuckled when he saw Nan Luo rushing over. He really wondered what this brat would do in the future when he was older. "I\'m tasting the food that Hua\'er made."

Hua\'er.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes. She was a bit surprised by his way of greetings that didn\'t seem to be that normal in her opinion. However, upon recalling the status of her being his fiancée, she chose to stay silent and say nothing.

"It\'s not the time to eat yet!" Nan Luo protested.

Feng Ao Si also came over. He had handed the rabbits he managed to catch to the servants but his hand was stained with blood due to his violence means when catching. "Aren\'t you busy to arrange the servants, Young Commander Long?"

"It\'s done."

"So fast?" Nan Luo was stunned. It was then he realized that the tents were all ready and the servants were preparing fire for the night. The sun had started to set, dyeing the sky with beautiful red color. However, he didn\'t expect to see everything had almost been cleaned up.

Long Qian Xing nodded. Most of the people who came with him were soldiers. They had been trained by him to maintain high efficiency during most of their times going outside. There was no way he could possibly let them not do their job efficiently when there might be danger at the battlefield.

Learning how to create tents fast and cooked quickly was very essential.

"There are still more vegetables?" Nan Hua asked as she turned to look at the servants.

Xiao Yun nodded. "Replying to Miss, there are still some vegetables left. It\'ll be for the journey later."

"I see."

The vegetables were dried so that it could last longer. However, they wouldn\'t be as good as vegetables that were prepared on the spot. Nan Hua didn\'t really want to let her grandfather to only eat dried vegetables.

In his old age, it would be better for him to be able to enjoy fresh vegetables rather than the dried ones.

Long Qian Xing saw Nan Hua\'s eyes and suggested, "We\'re going to pass a village tomorrow. If you would like, I can show you around to buy some fresh vegetables."

Nan Hua raised her head. Her dark obsidian eyes were staring straight at Long Qian Xing. "Thank you, Brother Long."

"It\'s nothing much." Long Qian Xing smiled faintly as he looked at his little fiancée.

Nan Luo pursed his lips when he saw their interaction. "If Hua\'er wants to go, I\'ll accompany you! There\'s no need to ask him!"

"Yes! We can accompany you!" Feng Ao Si chirped in.

"Why are you also coming?"

"I can\'t possibly just stay behind, can I?"

Long Qian Xing shook his head at the children\'s interaction. As he had thought, they were all really funny. He said a few more words to the servants before returning to his duties of guarding.

The others had their meal with their mother (aunt) and grandfather.

"What did you do when you\'re staying in the carriage?" Nan Si Qiao asked after their short meal. It was hard to have various dishes when they were outdoor like this. Thankfully, she had already experienced the lives of the soldiers with her husband or she wouldn\'t be able to enjoy this meal.

"We\'re playing Go," Feng Ao Kuai said seriously.

"You can play even when the carriage shook?" Nan Si Qiao asked with a strange expression.

"It\'s not that bad." The carriage they used was the good one that would not easily shake. Not only that, they were not going to the small areas where the road was so bad that their carriage couldn\'t help but shake. They were only going to \'walk around\' and the pace was slow, thus the carriage nearly didn\'t shake at all.

For them, it was a very good condition.

"The carriage didn\'t shake, but it\'s so boring," Nan Luo complained. He really couldn\'t stand to just stay inside the carriage and do nothing for a long period of time.

Feng Ao Si also nodded. "Yes, Grandpa. Can I just ride the horse?"

"Me too!"

Feng Ao Kuai passed a look at his older brother and younger cousin but said nothing. In any case, he didn\'t have any intention of doing some exercise when what he wanted was to play more game with Nan Hua.

He wanted to be able to grasp more skills. Just by playing with Nan Hua, even if he lost, he had learned many things.

Old Master Nan rolled his eyes. "Fine, you can ride the horse if you want Ah Luo. Make sure that you\'re careful enough when you\'re controlling the horse. Ah Si, you\'ll learn how to drive the carriage. Make sure you do it properly or you\'ll risk your younger brother and Hua\'er safety."

Nan Luo nodded. "I know, Grandpa. I\'ll make sure to be careful when I ride the horse later."

Feng Ao Si was about to say that it was a piece of cake when he saw Feng Ao Kuai stare in his direction. For some reasons, all of the words he was about to say were swallowed back as he felt chills on his back.

If he dared to make a mistake, he was sure that his younger brother would not hesitate to roast him alive!
