General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

205 Showdown

Su Mo wanted to beat his two younger brothers to death.

He should have tied them to the carriage and gagged them tightly!

Su Yu blinked innocently and shifted the blame. “Second Brother said it first!”

Su Qi stomped his feet. “Then I didn’t say as much as you did!”

Su Mo clenched his fists. He didn’t know how he had let his two brothers live until now…

“The two of you… get into the carriage and wait!”

Su Qi and Su Yu got into the carriage with aggrieved expressions.

Su Mo pressed the space between his eyebrows.

Su Xiaoxiao sized Su Mo up calmly. “So the jade pendant belongs to your family… No wonder your father had such a strange reaction.”

He asked about this and that and even asked about Father Su’s birthday.

Su Xiaoxiao’s reaction was a little beyond Su Mo’s expectations. Ordinary people… No, not to mention ordinary people, anyone would probably not be able to maintain their composure after hearing such shocking news.

However, the little girl in front of her was calm from the beginning to the end, as if it was not a big deal for her to have a relationship with the Marquis of Zhenbei.

Did she know what it meant to be related to the Marquis of Zhenbei?

Did she not understand?

Of course, Su Xiaoxiao understood. She just had a guess on the day Su Yuan arrived that Su Yuan might know Father Su’s family, but she did not expect Su Yuan to be Father Su’s family.

As for why she wasn’t excited, she was not used to celebrating surprises that did not come. Moreover, this might not be a happy thing.

Father Su had been missing for so many years. If he came from a humble background, everyone would not be able to eat their fill and wear warm clothes, it would be fine but what kind of family was the Marquis of Zhenbei?

In her previous life, although she was not related to the royal family, she could still be considered as having hailed from a rich family. However, she did not experience the warmth that she deserved in that family.

On the other hand, after coming here, Father Su and Su Ergou, who would rather starve themselves to feed her, gave her a feeling of home that she had never felt before.

In her heart, she had never equated a noble background with a legitimate family.

“Since you’ve already heard it…”

Initially, Su Mo had planned to invite their family to the capital with the excuse of doing business. He had even thought of a reason to bring Su Cheng along: She saved their father and was their benefactor. As a gesture of appreciation, he hoped to invite them to the capital to play.

Who could refuse such an invitation?

If she wasn’t even tempted by this, he would use a ruthless move.

Unfortunately, his two younger brothers, who were not afraid of causing trouble, had ruined his plan.

He shouldn’t have let them come.

No, with their mouths, they would only let it slip in front of Qin Yun…

Su Mo took a deep breath and calmed the chaotic thoughts in his mind.

“That’s right. This jade pendant belongs to our Marquis of Zhenbei.”

He waited for her to ask, “Who is missing from the Marquis of Zhenbei’s family? What’s my father’s relationship with your Marquis of Zhenbei?”

In the end, she only nodded indifferently.

Was that it?

He almost blurted out, “Aren’t you curious?”

He held back his words.

Before confirming his identity, he actually did not intend to reveal too much.

His subordinates were loyal to him and would not lie to him, but she didn’t seem to be related to the rumors at all.

“I hope you can go to the capital and cooperate with us to investigate the truth.”

“Young Master Su.” Su Xiaoxiao looked at him calmly. “It’s not up to you to decide if we want to go to the capital. It’s useless even if you hope. It’s not whether you want to acknowledge us now, but whether we want to acknowledge you.”

This girl… was so arrogant!

Su Xiaoxiao said, “We don’t want to have a bunch of fake relatives.”

Su Mo was speechless.

“Young Master Su, if there’s nothing else, I have to get busy.”

With that, Su Xiaoxiao stopped looking at him and continued to draw.

Su Mo casually glanced at it.

Rich people often drew with brushes. She used charcoal heads. The drawing was neat and the lines were clear. Although it was not clear what she was drawing, it inexplicably lit up one’s eyes. There was an indescribable rigor.

Su Xiaoxiao really ignored Su Mo.

“Think about it for a few days first.” Su Mo couldn’t force her too much, so he got into the carriage and left.

Not long after, Father Su returned from the field.

“Daughter!”

He touched his stomach. “Is there anything good to eat?”

Su Xiaoxiao went to the kitchen to bring him a plate of pumpkin pancakes.

The pumpkin pancakes had just been fried and was still steaming. There was some red bean filling inside.

Old Master Su ate happily.

“Dad,” Su Xiaoxiao said calmly. “Have you ever thought about what family you have in the world?”

...

“Huh?” Old Master Su was very busy.

As Su Xiaoxiao drew, she asked, “When you wandered here back then, I was wondering if you got separated from your family. Do you want to look for them?”

Old Master Su lowered his head and took a bite of the pancake. “It’s been so many years. What’s there to find? You don’t know how serious the disaster was back then. There’s definitely no one at home.”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “What if there is? Do you want to look for them?”

Old Master Su waved his hand.

After lunch, Physician Fu came to the Su family’s house.

This was the first time Physician Fu had come to Apricot Flower Village. To be honest, Su Xiaoxiao was quite surprised.

More surprisingly… he was bruised and swollen as if someone had beaten him up.

“I accidentally fell.” Physician Fu said shamelessly.

He would never admit that he was beaten up by his biological mother.

Su Xiaoxiao: “Oh.”

...

Doctor Fu was about to reply, “What kind of suspicious tone is that?”

The doctor gulped down a few mouthfuls of tea and wiped the sweat on his forehead. “I’m looking for you for something serious.”

Physician Fu told Su Xiaoxiao about Su Mo’s visit. “…The family from the capital seems to have a relationship with my father. His father came a few days ago, and I went out for a consultation.”

The world was so small.

The physician did not specify Su Mo’s identity, but Su Xiaoxiao had already deduced it from his description. No wonder Su Yuan came to Apricot Flower Town. It turned out that he wanted to invite the Physician Fu’s father to the capital to treat the Old Marquis.

The doctor sighed. “My mother said that the Old Marquis has been ill for many years. Even my father can’t treat him. My medical skills are inferior to my father’s, so I should not embarrass myself.”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Then why are you here today?”

The doctor took out a piece of paper from his pocket. “I found my father’s medical case back then. It documents the Old Marquis’s illness. I made a copy. Do you want me to read it to you?”

“No need. I can read.”

“Already?”

Su Xiaoxiao took the medical case from him. She learned to read quickly and could basically recognize most of the medical cases. If she really didn’t understand, she could guess with the context.

However, to be cautious, she still verified it with Physician Fu.

“From the symptoms of the patients recorded by your father, it seems to be heart failure caused by lack of air in the lungs. The herbs your father prescribed are also prescriptions to nourish the air in the lungs.”

“That’s right,” Physician Fu said. “However, this is a record from more than ten years ago. Now, the Old Marquis’s illness might have changed. It’s unknown.”

“That’s right. This medical case is too outdated and can no longer be used as a basis for diagnosis…” Su Xiaoxiao glanced at him.” Do you want to go to the capital to treat the Old Marquis? ”

The doctor shook his head. “My mother is old. I’m worried about leaving her here alone. I think… your medical skills are brilliant. Perhaps you can try.”

Su Xiaoxiao finished her last stroke. “I’m not going to the capital.”
