General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

Chapter 210 - 210 Settlement



Along the way, they saw many rich cities. However, when they reached the capital where the emperor lived, they could not help but sigh. The city walls of the capital were really tall, majestic, and magnificent!

The guards at the door were wearing thick armor and holding spears with dignified expressions.

Su Ergou often jumped across the two carriages repeatedly. Now, he was in Su Xiaoxiao’s carriage.

He lifted the curtain and looked at the crowd queuing up to enter the city. He cried out in shock, “Sister! There are so many people!”

The three little ones also squeezed their heads through the carriage window and blinked their big eyes, sizing them up curiously

It would be a lie to say that it was not hard for them to travel for days. Even a tough man like Father Su was about to lie flat. Su Ergou had also fallen sick once along the way. Other than losing a little weight, the three little ones did not feel any other discomfort.

The three of them grabbed the milk bottle and drank milk.

Su Xiaoxiao nodded to herself. “Oh, the milk powder is not bad. I’ll get more from the pharmacy next time.”

Dahu was the first to finish his.

Then, he shot his two brothers a dangerous look.

Erhu and Xiaohu hurriedly pounced into Su Xiaoxiao’s arms, wary of their brother robbing their milk bottles.

When it was their turn, the carriage was stopped by the guards.

The three coachmen were sent by Su Mo and the carriage. They were from the capital and showed their travel passes.

The guard said seriously, “Get down from the carriage!”

Su Xiaoxiao opened the curtain and gently reached out with her fair wrist, handing the guard a token that was suffused with a cold black light.

The guard seemed to know the token of the Marquis of Zhenbei and his attitude instantly became respectful. “The carriage needs to be checked. Please forgive me.”

Su Xiaoxiao understood and carried the three little fellows out of the carriage.

The triplets were too eye-catching. Not only were they cute, but they also drank from their small milk bottles. The passersby were bowled over by their cuteness.

Even the guard who was doing a routine inspection could not help but take a few more glances at the three little ones.

After checking the carriages and not finding anything suspicious, the guard let the three carriages go.

After entering the capital, Su Ergou’s exclamations never stopped.

“Sister! Look! What a tall building!”

“That’s the tower.”

“Huh? Oh.”

Xiaohu said, “Tower.”

Erhu said, “A tall tower.”

Dahu said, “Not as tall as me.”

The capital was really too big. The group entered the city in the morning and only settled down in the evening.

After confirming that they had settled down, the coachman went to the Marquis Mansion to report.

Su Mo and Qin Yun arrived in the capital yesterday. Su Yuan, Su Qi, and the others were still on their way back to the capital. They would probably arrive in another two to three days.

The lead coachman saw Su Mo in Tingfeng Courtyard.

“Eldest Young Master.” He cupped his hands and bowed.

“Are they here?” Su Mo asked.

“They are here,” said the coachman.

“Where is she?” Su Mo looked at the empty courtyard.

The coachman said, “They refuse to stay at the Marquis Mansion.”

Su Mo had long expected that with the girl’s personality, she would most likely not accept the arrangements to stay in the Marquis’s Mansion. He was not surprised by this.

“Did they go to Changliu Street?”

There was a small house under his name on Changliu Street. If she refused to come to the Duke Mansion, the coachman would bring them there to stay.

The coachman shook his head again. “No, they went to Pear Blossom Lane.”

“The Pear Blossom Lane on Scholar Street?” Su Mo pondered for a moment. “Why did they go there?”

Pear Blossom Lane was a rare quiet area in the bustling capital. The east and west sides of the street were connected to the noisy streets. After walking in, one would seem to have left the dust of the streets behind.

Su Xiaoxiao came to a house and gently knocked on the closed door.

Creak—

The door opened from the inside.

A slightly hunched servant stuck his head out and looked at Su Xiaoxiao and the others with a strange expression.

Su Xiaoxiao took out a letter and handed it to him.

The sky was a little dark, and the servant’s eyes did not seem to be working well. He took the letter and closed the courtyard door first. He inserted the bolt and went to read the letter under the oil lamp in the house.

When he came over again, he opened the courtyard door wide and politely welcomed them in.

“You…”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at him.

He gestured.

He was a mute slave and could not speak.

...

Father Su brought his luggage in and looked at the clean and elegant courtyard. He asked, “Daughter, whose house is this?”

“Grandmaster Hui Jue’s,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

The last time she visited Grandmaster Hui Jue, she had given her a letter before she left. She said that if she changed her mind in the future and was willing to go to the capital, she could stay in her old residence.

The old friend that Grandmaster Hui Jue mentioned was probably the Old Marquis of the Marquis of Zhenbei.

At that time, she had already made it clear that she would not go to the capital for a house call.

However, Grandmaster Hui Jue was still prepared for this, as if she had expected her to come to the capital in the end.

“By the way, help me take a look at Zhong Shan. It’s not easy for him to guard a big house alone…”

These were Grandmaster Hui Jue’s exact words.

Therefore, Su Xiaoxiao knew his name.

He was actually not even 50 years old, but he looked a little old.

“Thank you, Uncle Zhong.”

...

After Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Zhong Shan clearly paused.

He looked at Su Xiaoxiao in a daze before quickly lowering his head and helping to move their luggage in.

This was a two-in-one courtyard. It was different from the layout of houses in the countryside. Su Ergou brought the three little ones around. It was extremely rare.

Su Cheng, Su Ergou, and Physician Fu lived in the rooms in the front, while Su Xiaoxiao and the three little ones lived in a room in the second courtyard.

Zhong Shan did not live here. He only came to clean every day, coming in the morning and leaving at night.

After handing the key to Su Xiaoxiao, Zhong Shan returned.

The courtyard and rooms were very clean, and the furniture and bedding were ready-made. They could move in rightaway after entering. However, Zhong Shan did not set up a fire in the courtyard, so there was nothing to eat in the kitchen.

Fortunately, this was the capital and there were many shops nearby.

“Dad, I’ll go out and buy some dinner. What do you want to eat?”

Su Cheng waved his hand. “There’s no need. Let’s go together. I’ve been cooped up in the carriage for the entire day. It’s time to walk around.”

“Physician Fu, what about you?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Physician Fu said, “I’ll go take a walk too.”

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Su Ergou and the three little ones playing in the courtyard. “Can you still walk?”

Xiaohu patted his chest with both hands and said in a childish voice, “Xiaohu has to move! Xiaohu has to move!”

He was the one who shouted the most. He was also the one who stretched out his arm to Father Su after taking two steps.

This time, Erhu chose to be a happy salted fish with his brother.

“Uncle, carry.”

Su Ergou picked Erhu up.

In the end, only the lonely Dahu was left running in front.

After leaving the alley and walking south, there were many snack stalls and restaurants.

Father Su was not too picky about food and usually let Su Xiaoxiao decide.

However, today, he stopped at an old noodle shop.

He looked up at the signboard that had long lost its paint. In a daze, he had the illusion that he had been here.
