238 He Dreamed
After class, Qin Yanran came out with the zither.
She saw her grandfather’s carriage at a glance.
The coachman bowed. “Miss.”
Qin Yanran asked, “Did Grandpa ask you to pick me up?”
The coachman said, “Old Master came over personally.”
Qin Yanran’s eyes lit up.
His grandfather doted on the siblings very much, but his grandfather was not good at expressing himself and could not do these warm actions.
Qin Yanran enjoyed it. Just as she was about to get into the carriage and bow to her grandfather, she heard the coachman say, “Old Master just saved a child and sent him home.”
“Where’s the child?”
“I think… it’s in this alley. I didn’t notice which family it was.”
He could not stare at the Old Duke’s back. Moreover, the Old Duke’s footsteps were too fast. In the blink of an eye, he was gone.
Since it was from the alley, it shouldn’t take long.
Qin Yanran got into the carriage and waited for her grandfather.
Unexpectedly, she waited until her hands and feet were cold, but her grandfather did not come over.
Qin Canglan was in the Su family’s front yard, feeding the foal with Su Ergou. He completely forgot what he was here for.
It was said among ten generals, nine would be reticent. That was because they had never met anyone with whom they could chat.
Su Ergou was at the age of curiosity and was intoxicated by Qin Canglans stories. He dreamed of riding a tall horse one day.
“What do you want to know… Come, let me tell you.”
Qin Canglan spoke for a full two hours. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
He spoke about everything from the feeding of horses to the breed of horses, to the domestication of horses. In the end, for some reason, the topic changed to the battlefield.
What horse was suitable for charging? What horse was suitable for raiding at night?
Qin Canglan had also told Qin Yun about this, but the latter did not like to hear it.
Su Cheng watched as the two of them talked about horses and treated him as air. His face darkened. Were they still eating sweet potatoes?
Don’t just talk!
Hurry up and finish the charred black sweet potato!
It was already two hours after Qin Canglan left the Su family. Su Cheng was grateful that he had taught Su Ergou how to feed the horse.
As a thank-you, Su Cheng offered a thank-you gift: a pack of roasted sweet potatoes that were already cold.
He had finally given them away!
Qin Canglan returned to the carriage and realized that he had completely forgotten about Qin Yanran.
He looked at Qin Yanran, whose lips were purple from the cold, and coughed awkwardly. “You don’t have to wait for me next time. Go back yourself.”
Back at the residence, Qin Che had just returned.
The three of them met at the door.
An Imperial Physician followed behind Qin Che.
Qin Canglan asked, “Why did you invite the imperial physician?”
Qin Che’s eyes flashed. He did not dare to tell her that Qin Yun had been taught a lesson by Princess Jingning. He only said awkwardly, “Yun’er has caught a cold. I invited the Imperial Physician to take a look at him.”
Qin Canglan frowned.
This grandson’s body was too weak. He should not have been spoiled like this. Look at the child in Pear Blossom Lane. He was as strong as a calf and had firm skin…
When Qin Che was young, he was also tough. He would go up out of the house every other day and climb trees. Perhaps he had suffered too much among the commoners. After returning to the capital, he was not as tough as when he was young.
The young man in the alley looked good.
Strange.
Why did he keep thinking of the father and son in Pear Blossom Lane?
Qin Canglan turned around and returned to his courtyard.
Qin Che looked at his father’s departing back strangely. He felt that his father was different from usual today…
He looked at the pale Qin Yanran and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“It’s cold.” Qin Yanran felt wronged and told him about waiting for her grandfather in the carriage for more than two hours.
