General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming - Chapter 276
Chapter 276: Team Favorite (1)
Along Pear Blossom Lane, Su Xiaoxiao lived next door to a family with the surname Zheng.
The old man was in his seventies and did not sleep much. It was still dark, but he had already woken up and was walking in the courtyard.
He vaguely heard the snort of a horse outside and felt strange. He quietly opened the door a crack and took a look.
A tall man had his hands in his sleeves and was squatting under the wall opposite. At first glance, he thought that a big black bear was squatting. Old Master Zheng was so frightened that his soul almost flew out!
This big black bear was none other than Qin Canglan, who had been waiting for half the night.
After Qin Canglan came out of the palace, he went to the Protectorate to instruct Steward Cen on a few things. Then, he went to the Qin family’s horse farm.
He chose two high-grade Mongolian horses and came here without stopping.
There was no need to wait here. He could go home and rest. It would not matter if dawn came.
But he was unwilling.
In the past, he was not a person who was afraid of the ravages of birth, aging, illness, and death. He was already old and did not feel that he had many days left.
Ever since the children returned to the capital, he suddenly felt that his life was not enough.
It was as if… the past 30 years had been for nothing.
He could not start over in the next 30 years, so even if he could take a look, just a look was precious to him.
The alley was cold and damp after the rain, and the gout in his right hand acted up again.
He had painkillers on him. He didn’t want to fall asleep and held back from eating.
Finally, at dawn, Su Xiaoxiao, who had finished making breakfast and snacks, planned to buy some vegetables at the market.
The weather gradually warmed up. Vegetables were not easy to store and were usually bought early every morning.
The moment the courtyard door opened, Qin Canglan stood up.
“Da, Daya… Hiss—”
His feet were numb.
Qin Canglan revealed a painful face.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him strangely. “You’ve been here for a long time? Why didn’t you knock?”
Qin Canglan grinned brightly. “No, I just arrived!”
It would be strange if he just came.
Su Xiaoxiao’s gaze swept across him and the two tall horses. “Come in.”
Qin Canglan limped into the courtyard and led the two horses in.
The horse was prepared for Su Cheng and Su Ergou. He had observed that Su Ergou wanted to ride a horse last time.
“This is for you.”
Qin Canglan took out a brocade box that had been covered for a long time.
Su Xiaoxiao took it and opened it. There were three pairs of bracelets, one of tourmaline, one of seed suet jade, and the other of blood jade.
Other people gave bracelets one by one, but he stuffed six into a box. The box could barely be closed.
“I wonder what you like…” Qin Canglan was a little uneasy.
It was not difficult to guess what Su Ergou and Su Cheng liked. However, the little girl never seemed to be interested in anything.
He could not read his fat granddaughter.
He could only give her some greeting gifts according to the preferences of ordinary girls.
Hua Yin liked jewelry like this back then. She said that if she wasn’t with him one day, she could sell them for money…
Coincidentally, Su Xiaoxiao thought so too.
Su Xiaoxiao accepted it without changing her expression and went to the kitchen to scoop a bowl of hot millet porridge for him.
Qin Canglan looked at the porridge on the table and was so touched that he almost cried.
It was just a box of bracelets, but his good granddaughter had made such a big bowl of porridge for him!
Su Xiaoxiao: “By the way,”
Su Xiaoxiao went to buy groceries, and Qin Canglan said that he could take care of the house.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t wake Su Ergou up.
Wei Ting was not around. He had gone out to cause trouble in the middle of the night.
The three little fellows woke up first. When they woke up, they saw Qin Canglan sitting at the door with a small stool.
The three of them did not treat him as an outsider. They carried their clothes and slipped out of bed, asking him to help them put on their clothes.
After ruining two sets of clothes, Qin Canglan finally dressed the three little ones… neatly.
Okay, it was almost neat—Xiaohu’s pants were on the wrong side.
The three little ones only bullied Qin Canglan because he had just arrived and did not understand the market. They tricked Qin Canglan into feeding them.
After feeding them twice, the three little ones waved their small hands in shock and ran away!
Other people fed with spoons, and Qin Canglan fed with a ladle—
After Su Ergou woke up, he was dumbfounded to have his own horse. “Is it really for… for me?”
“Of course, it’s for you!” Qin Canglan smiled and slapped his shoulder.
After slapping, Qin Canglan panicked!
The last time he patted Qin Yun like this, the latter lay on the bed for ten days..
