General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming novel Chapter 204

204 Recognition

The coachman looked around.

What was the situation?

Were they followed?

Su Mo said coldly, “Don’t make me say it a second time.”

At the other end of the alley, two men in luxurious clothes pushed each other and forced themselves to walk over.

The coachman took a look and was instantly dumbfounded. “Second Young Master? Third Young Master? It’s you?”

The two of them got into the carriage.

Su Qi chuckled. “Brother, when did you discover us?”

Su Mo said, “You exposed yourself before you left the ancestral residence. Do you think you hid very well?”

Su Yu said, “I knew we would be discovered. Why don’t we just take Big Brother’s carriage? The servants’ carriage is suffocating!”

Su Qi chuckled. “Why didn’t you say so just now?”

Su Yu curled her lips and said, “You didn’t give me a chance to say it!”

These two younger brothers were only a year apart and loved to bicker more than the fourth and fifth siblings.

Su Mo said, “Alright, stop arguing.”

The two of them shut up.

Su Yu moved closer to Su Mo and asked, “Brother, is what Father said true? Do we really have to bring Su Cheng back?”

Su Mo frowned. “The two of you were eavesdropping again!”

Su Yu decisively pushed the blame to Su Qi. “It’s what Second Brother wants to hear!”

Su Qi exploded. “You were the one who pulled me along!”

Su Mo said sternly, “If you argue again, I’ll throw the two of you down!”

Su Mo was respectful and honest in front of Su Yuan, but in front of his younger brothers, he was a strict elder brother.

The two of them stopped arguing and stabbed each other with their eyes.

The reason why Su Mo let his two younger brothers secretly follow him was mainly that he was worried that if he did not oversee them, the two of them would accidentally say something they should not say in front of Qin Yun.

“Are you going back to the prefecture now?” he asked.

The two of them shook their heads.

Su Mo reminded, “You can follow me to the Su family, but you’re not allowed to speak nonsense, especially not to reveal the purpose of our trip. Before everything is investigated, I don’t want to cause unnecessary misunderstandings.”

Su Qi patted his chest. “Brother, don’t worry. I definitely won’t reveal anything!”

Su Yu said, “Me too!”

Su Mo knew his two younger brothers’ personalities the best. They were clearly not young anymore, but they were not as calm as his fourth and fifth brothers.

It was better to leave them under his watch than for them to go out and cause trouble.

When the carriage arrived at the village road near Apricot Flower Village, a peddler carrying a burden blocked their path.

The peddler looked around, put down his burden, and bowed to the carriage. “Eldest Young Master.”

Su Qi lifted the curtain and said in surprise, “It’s Big Brother’s men?”

Ever since Su Yuan mentioned Su Cheng to Su Mo, Su Mo had sent his trusted aide over overnight to investigate the situation of the Su family.

It was difficult to obtain objective information if he asked directly. Therefore, this person disguised himself as a peddler and wandered around Apricot Flower Village and the neighboring villages for three days.

The Su family was famous in the surrounding villages, but they did not have a good reputation. They were the three big bullies who made people tremble in fear.

The big bully, Su Cheng, traveled the world with a butcher knife.

The fat bully, Su Daya, was lazy and promiscuous. First, she took a fancy to her cousin, Scholar Chen, and then “married” He Tongsheng from the neighboring village. However, He Tongsheng escaped on the day of the wedding, and the Su family somehow found a husband.

The villagers called him Wei Xiaolang. It was said that he was very handsome.

Finally, it was the little bully, Su Ergou. He was also a hooligan and had fought with others since he was young.

The infamy of the three of them was really innumerable.

Su Yu’s expression was indescribable. “No way, Big Brother. What kind of family did Grandpa ask us to bring back?”

Su Mo also frowned.

The information he found was obviously different from what his father had brought back. In his father’s eyes, the Little Su family was a warm-hearted, kind, and helpful country family. Which was the real Little Su family?

Su Mo asked about Su Cheng again.

This time, it was not much different from what his father said—the year the six-year-old Su Cheng fled from the disaster, he followed the refugees and landed near Willow Village. He suffered a lot and almost starved to death, died of illness, and was beaten to death by the refugees. In the end, he lived in Willow Village and became a cowherd.

That was a nice way of putting it. To put it bluntly, he was a beggar.

His jade pendant was picked up by the Su family. The Su family knew that it was his, but they did not return it to him. Instead, they sold it for a large sum of silver and used 10% of it to buy food to help the refugees in the village. From this, they captured the hearts of the entire village.

As the true owner of the jade pendant, Su Cheng had been despised as a bully for many years.

Su Mo was calmer than Su Yuan.

Perhaps he was more hard-hearted and did not have much pity for the common people.

Su Mo spent a lot of effort resisting the urge to throw his two noisy brothers out of the carriage. _{ƒreewebηoveℓ.com}
