General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming novel Chapter 248

248 Knowing the Truth

Su Cheng was confused. “I know my name is good, but you don’t have to do this. After all, you’re from the capital. Can you act like you’ve seen the world?”

Qin Canglan did not know how he left Pear Blossom Lane.

Spring rain began to fall. He walked awkwardly in the rain, oblivious to the oil-paper umbrella held above his head.

“Old Duke? Why are you here? It’s raining heavily. Didn’t you bring a servant?”

!!

The servant of the Marquis of Zhenbei held an umbrella for him.

He was so tall that the servant had to stand on his tiptoes.

“Is your Marquis around?”

“Yes, yes!” The servant hurriedly said, “Are you going to visit the Marquis? I’ll get you a big umbrella first!”

Qin Canglan did not say anything. He pushed him away and resolutely walked into the rain.

The servant chased after him. “Old Duke! Old Duke!”

Boom!

A deafening explosion resounded in the rainy sky. The servant felt that his eardrums had been blown apart.

Lightning and thunder flashed. The world flickered, and even the ground seemed to be trembling.

The servant did not dare to chase after him.

It was important to entertain guests, but his life was more important!

The servant hid in the pavilion.

The rain suddenly became heavier. He could vaguely see a tall figure stumbling in the heavy rain.

It was unknown if it was because the ground was too slippery or if he was in a daze.

He fell heavily, the mud wrapping around him.

He wiped his face and got up with both hands. Then, he slipped again.

The servant did not count how many times the Old Duke had slipped. He could feel the embarrassment and urgency on the Old Duke.

This man had protected Great Zhou for half his life; he was a general who seemed to be able to fight on the battlefield for his entire life. At this moment, he only had the hobble and hunch of an old man.

The Old Marquis had just finished his medicine.

Physician Fu took his pulse and blood pressure. He said that he was recovering well and could get out of bed in three to five days.

Clang!

The door was slammed open and a man covered in mud and rain barged in.

He was taller and stronger than ordinary men. Coupled with his domineering aura, he scared the stethoscope out of Physician Fu’s hand!

The Old Marquis was very calm.

He looked at Qin Canglan cunningly and said to Physician Fu, “Go back to your room and rest for a while.”

Physician Fu looked at the fierce Qin Canglan and stammered, “Is… is this really fine?”

This person looked so fierce!

“It’s fine. Go,” the Old Marquis said.

Physician Fu could only go, but he was really worried about the Old Marquis. He did not return to his room but went to Su Mo’s courtyard in the rain.

The Old Marquis said to Little Quanzi, “Clothes.”

Qin Canglan panted. “There’s no need!”

The Old Marquis said, “Leave.”

Little Quanzi went out and only the two of them were left in the room.

The two of them had known each other since they were young for decades. They had personally seen each other transform from inexperienced youths to veterans on the battlefield.

They had witnessed each other’s glory and experienced each other’s difficulties.

They watched as the other party aged bit by bit. When they suddenly looked back, their youth was already gone.

They had also gone against each other and lived their own lives.

But no matter what, as long as they could still breathe, they would always have a common bond—Su Huayin.

The Old Marquis said, “You’re in such a hurry to see me because you saw that child, right?”

Generals were not as scheming as civil officials, but that did not mean that they were brainless.

If he was really not shrewd at all, he could not lead the army to war with just a little brute force.

“You brought them to the capital?”

Qin Canglan had asked Su Cheng where they were from and why they had come to the capital.

The Old Marquis did not think that there was anything to hide.

“It was me,” he said.

Qin Canglan frowned and said, “Su Shuo, what do you mean by this? Finding two people similar to Qin Che and Hua Yin… What are you trying to do!”

The Old Marquis looked at him indifferently. “Qin Canglan, are they really just similar? I could see Hua Yin’s shadow the first time I saw them. Can you really not tell?”

Qin Canglan raised his voice. “That’s why I asked you what you want to do!”

The Old Marquis said, “Qin Canglan, that child is your flesh and blood with Huayin.”

The child he was talking about was Su Cheng.

...

Regardless of whether Su Cheng was already a father or not, in their eyes, he was still the child from back then.

“Grandfather.”

Su Mo’s voice appeared outside the door.

The Old Marquis glanced at Qin Canglan. Qin Canglan’s back was facing the light, and his entire face was covered in shadows. Only the rain on his body could be heard dripping to the ground.

“Come in,” the Old Marquis said.

Su Mo pushed open the door. A strong wind mixed with heavy rain poured in. Su Mo’s clothes were also wet, and the hair at his temples stuck to his young and handsome face.

When Physician Fu went to look for him and told him that a fierce and terrifying uninvited guest had come to the residence, Su Mo had more or less guessed it.

The progress of the matter was not as expected. It was unknown which step accelerated the process. In short, it was much faster than the original plan.
