General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming novel Chapter 78

78 Merit

Fifteen minutes later, Hong Luan and Su Xiaoxiao came out of the forest one after another.

Hong Luan presented the things she had found to Jing Yi with both hands. “Please take a look, Young Marquis.”

Jing Yi opened the handkerchief and took a look. “Pancake?”

“Yes,” Hong Luan said. “I only found this.”

Jing Yi looked coldly at the two black-clothed guards at the side.

The two of them frowned!

The square-faced man said, “Young Marquis, I really saw it! It’s indeed what we’ve been looking for!”

“What about you?” Jing Yi asked another person.

Another person recalled carefully and said, “It looks like it to me.”

Hong Luan was unhappy. “What do you mean? Are you suspecting that I missed it, or are you suspecting that I’m protecting her?”

Hong Luan was a hidden guard and was good at qinggong and concealment. Her vigilance and meticulousness were not something ordinary experts could compare to.

She did not care what these two fellows had seen. In short, she had searched inside and out. There was indeed nothing suspicious on that little village girl.

Jing Yi broke open the pastry.

It was just a pancake. There was nothing hidden.

The square-faced man was very puzzled. “I did see her put it in her pocket...”

Hong Luan said indifferently, “Perhaps you saw wrongly. It’s just a biscuit.”

The square-faced man opened his mouth. “I... ”

Hong Luan snorted. “If you don’t believe me, go search again!”

Hong Luan was not speaking up for Su Xiaoxiao. She firmly believed that her search methods would not miss any blind spots.

Jing Yi also believed in Hong Luan’s ability. If the item was really on Miss Su, it was impossible for Hong Luan not to find it. As for protecting Miss Su, it was even more impossible.

Jing Yi waited for Su Xiaoxiao to come out after putting on her clothes and personally apologized to her.

Su Xiaoxiao said angrily, “To think that I thought we were friends, but you don’t trust me at all. Thinking about it, it’s not strange. You’re the Young Marquis, and I’m just a small village girl. You’re out of my league! Goodbye!”

With that, Su Xiaoxiao left without looking back.

Jing Yi wanted to say something but hesitated. He looked at the broken pancake in his hand and pinched the brocade bag in his left hand that he had not given away in time. His expression darkened.

—

Su Xiaoxiao kept walking back. After confirming that she was far away from Jing Yi and the others’ line of sight, her tense body finally relaxed.

She let out a long breath.

It was too dangerous. Jing Yi looked like a high school student in her previous life. She didn’t expect him to be so calm and meticulous.

She was not really angry with Jing Yi, but if she did not appear so angry, she would appear very suspicious.

She thought that she would definitely be exposed this time, but at the critical moment, the pharmacy appeared.

Although it was only for an instant, it was enough for her to put the token in.

In Hong Luan’s opinion, she only clutched her chest and felt dizzy for a moment.

Hong Luan asked her what was wrong.

She said to Hong Luan, “I didn’t eat breakfast and went to town for a consultation. I was so hungry that I almost fainted! It wasn’t easy for me to bring a pancake, but you treated it as stolen goods!”

With that, she successfully deceived the world.

....

She had got off unscathed and the pharmacy had contributed.

Speaking of which, she had entered the pharmacy a total of four times.

The first time was to treat Wei Ting’s injuries. The second time was to treat Young Master Xiang’s lung disease. She also gave Father Su a bottle of bone-strengthening pills. The third time was to save Aunt Fu.

The fourth time was just now.

Could it be that... the trigger condition of the pharmacy was an emergency? What was the criteria to be met?
