General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

He paced around the house. Qin Yanran came to look for him twice, but he dismissed her perfunctorily.

Qin Yun’s attendant came once, but he did not see him.

He had mobilized the most elite subordinates in the residence. Logically speaking, he would not fail. But why was he so uneasy?

The servant pushed the door open. “Master, Xu Qing is here.”

!!

Xu Qing was the subordinate he had sent out for the assasination.

Qin Che hurriedly said, “Let him in quickly!”

Xu Qing entered the house.

Qin Che instructed the servant, “Close the door and don’t let anyone approach.”

“Yes, Master.” The servant retreated, closed the door, and guarded it warily.

Qin Che asked impatiently, “Did you succeed?”

Xu Qing took off his bamboo hat, revealing a ferocious scar on the right side of his face.

“No,” he said.

Qin Che was stunned. “How can that be? Aren’t you…”

Wasn’t he the most powerful expert in the residence?

Otherwise, it would be very difficult for him to become a guard in the residence with this incomplete appearance.

It was not that the Protectorate judged people by their appearance, but that the Qin family was rich. They could hire any powerful guard, so why did they have to choose someone with a disabled appearance?

Qin Che snorted coldly. “Don’t tell me you can’t do it?”

Xu Qing lowered his head and said, “Xu Qing’s life was given by Old Master. Xu Qing will only be loyal to Old Master in his life.”

Qin Che said, “Then why didn’t you do anything?”

Xu Qing said, “I didn’t have a chance.”

Qin Che looked at him strangely. “What do you mean?”

Xu Qing paused and said truthfully, “Old Master went to Pear Blossom Lane.”

Qin Che’s body swayed. “W-what? Didn’t my father… go to the manor?”

Xu Qing recalled, “I’m not sure either. When I rushed to Pear Blossom Lane to make a move, Old Master appeared in the rain.”

Actually, Qin Canglan had gone twice, but when he returned Little Stone to Erhu for the first time, Xu Qing had yet to set off.

Cold sweat broke out on Qin Che’s forehead. “Then, then?”

Xu Qing said, “Then, that man called Su Cheng knocked Old Master out.”

Qin Che was dumbfounded.

In the room with the oil lamp, Qin Canglan slowly woke up from his sleep.

The general’s physique was not exaggerated. He was really strong. After being hit by Su Cheng, he actually regained consciousness in less than an hour.

He realized that he was lying in an unfamiliar house. He did not panic and calmly adapted to the light.

Then, he turned around and saw three furry heads. For some reason, his heart softened.

He was probably… really old.

The three of them sat on the ground and played with building blocks.

Xiaohu was the first to notice that he had woken up. He tilted his head and glanced at him. “Great-Grandpa is awake.”

Dahu and Erhu turned their heads at the same time.

Erhu ran out and pulled Su Xiaoxiao in. He pointed at Qin Canglan on the bed. “He’s awake.”

Su Xiaoxiao touched Erhu’s head. “Got it. Go play with Grandpa.”

This was Su Ergou’s room.

Xiaohu came to Su Xiaoxiao and handed his head to her. He raised his small hand and patted the top of his head.

“Xiaohu wants it too.”

Su Xiaoxiao touched him in amusement.

Dahu stood by the bed for a while. After confirming that Qin Canglan was really awake, he pointed at himself. “Who am I?”

“Dahu?” Qin Canglan was actually not sure. The triplets looked too similar, and he could not tell them apart.

Dahu nodded in satisfaction and extended two more fingers. “How many are these?”

Qin Canglan replied strangely, “Two?”

‘What kind of question is that?’

“Ok.”

It seemed that he had not been beaten into a fool. Dahu was relieved. He turned around and walked towards Su Xiaoxiao, asking for a pat.

Then, the three little ones went to Su Cheng’s room.

Su Mo had been here.

Qin Canglan’s expression was clearly not right when he left the Marquis of Zhenbei’s Estate. Su Mo was worried that he would return to the Protectorate first, causing something to happen, so he followed him.

With Qin Canglan’s strength, there were less than five people who could tail him.

...

It was because the matter was too big that Qin Canglan was on the verge of collapse.

Fortunately, Su Mo was not an enemy. Had it been an assassin, he would definitely have succeeded.

Su Mo told Su Xiaoxiao the ins and outs of the matter, so Su Xiaoxiao knew that Qin Canglan already knew Su Cheng’s background.

Su Xiaoxiao came to the bed and looked at Qin Canglan calmly.

In comparison, Qin Canglan was not so calm.

He saw Su Xiaoxiao and suddenly sat up.

Su Cheng did not show any mercy. Qin Canglan felt that his head was almost shattered. He covered his forehead in pain, but he accidentally covered the big bump that Su Cheng had punched out, and this hurt even more.

Moreover, it was accompanied by a certain retching reaction.

“Don’t move,” Su Xiaoxiao said. “It’s best to lie back down slowly.”

She seriously suspected that her biological father had knocked Qin Canglan out with a slight concussion.

Qin Canglan did not feel that he was in serious trouble. He lifted the blanket and wanted to get out of bed. Unexpectedly, as soon as he stood up, he felt the world spin.

...

His legs went weak and he fell back onto the bed in a sorry state.

Su Xiaoxiao opened the small medicine box and said solemnly, “I told you not to move.”

She took out a stethoscope and blood pressure gauge, tied Qin Canglan’s arm, and measured his blood pressure.

Qin Canglan looked at his arm and then at these strange things. He could not help but ask, “What are you doing?”

Su Xiaoxiao hung up the stethoscope. “Taking your pulse.”

Qin Canglan did not understand what she meant.

Qin Canglan stopped moving and obediently let Su Xiaoxiao… take his pulse.

“You… know medicine?”

When he came out of the Marquis of Zhenbei’s Estate, he felt that he had not left quickly enough. Now, he regretted leaving early.

He should ask the old monkey for more information…

“Don’t speak,” Su Xiaoxiao said calmly.

Qin Canglan immediately shut up.

To be honest, he had not even been so obedient when receiving the Imperial Edict.

Su Xiaoxiao took his blood pressure and listened to his pulse seriously.

Qin Canglan secretly sized up Su Xiaoxiao.

He glanced at her again.

The little fat girl was cute.

Like Hua Yin.

Su Xiaoxiao said solemnly, “As a patient, you should not be so agitated.”

How high was his blood pressure?

Did he want to have a stroke at his age?

Qin Canglan coughed lightly and took a deep breath, trying to calm the excitement in his heart.

Su Xiaoxiao watched his blood pressure drop bit by bit.

However, in less than three seconds, it flew even higher than before!

Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.

It couldn’t be helped. His little fat granddaughter was too cute.

Qin Canglan saw his fat granddaughter’s expression darken and he suddenly looked like an old child who had done something wrong and was caught red-handed.

He sat cross-legged on the bed and lowered his head, looking innocent. “I-I couldn’t help it.”
