Qin Yun said: "Oh, then uncle, go and rest for a while. Cousin, let's go hunting, don't disturb uncle's rest!"

Su Mo paused and said, "I have a few friends to visit, so I'm afraid I can't go hunting with you today."

"Ah?" Qin Yun was disappointed.

He was a child spoiled by both families, and his requests were rarely rejected.

If it were in the past, Su Mo would have obeyed him.

But right now there is something important that must be done immediately.

Su Mo smiled and said, "How about I accompany you next time, cousin?"

Qin Yun said arrogantly: "But I just want to go hunting today!"

Last time, he was beaten by a country bumpkin and was whipped by him. It took two days for his face to heal. He was holding his breath and had to go to the forest to get it back! Su Mo said seriously, "Not today."

Qin Yun pouted and left unwillingly: "I'm going to find my second and third cousins!"

Su Yuan looked at his back without turning back and shook his head: "This child is really spoiled. Fortunately, his sister is not like him."

Although Qin Yun's sister was also spoiled, she was much more sensible than Qin Yun. She was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and had a gentle and virtuous temperament. She was a famous talented woman in the capital.

Thinking of Qin Yanran, Su Yuan couldn't help but think of the marriage between the Duke of Huguo's Mansion and the third prince.

He frowned and said, "There is no time to lose, Mo'er, you should leave for Xinghua Town today."

"Yes, father."

"Wait." Su Yuan stopped his eldest son, "Master Xiang and Young Marquis Jing are also in Xinghua Town, you... remember to avoid them."

Su Mo nodded: "Son, I understand."

After discussing the details of the trip with Su Yuan, Su Mo took a carriage out of the ancestral home.

Not long after leaving the ancestral home, Su Mo felt that he was being followed.

He opened the rear curtain of the carriage a little, took a glance, and then calmly lowered the curtain.

Su Mo chose a top-quality warhorse and arrived in the town in the afternoon.

This was his first time in Xinghua Town. To ensure the smooth completion of the mission, he brought a map and a driver who knew the way.

The driver is not Zheng Guang.

Zheng Guang's face had been used before, and Su Mo was unsure of the Su family's attitude towards Su Yuan, so to be cautious, he picked a servant who was unfamiliar to him.

"Let's go to Chunliu Lane," he said.

The driver didn't dare to ask, "Aren't we going to Xinghua Village? Why did we change the route to Chunliu Lane?"

Although Su Mo appears to be a gentle and filial son in front of Su Yuan, in fact, Su Mo's temper is much tougher than Su Yuan's. Privately, the servants are very afraid of Su Mo.

"We're here." Su Mo said.

The coachman stopped the carriage in front of the Fu family’s gate.

While investigating Xiao Su's family is important, the health of his grandfather cannot be ignored either.

His grandfather had spent his entire life in military service, and he shouldn't have to spend his last days on a sickbed without dignity.

Doctor Fu had returned from his medical visit and was drying medicinal herbs in the yard.

Seeing someone coming to the door, he thought it was a visitor, so he said, "Come in, I'm almost done here, you go sit in the main room for a while."

Su Mo had never met Doctor Fu.

He stood at the door and observed quietly for a few breaths, then showed his amazing observation skills: "Doctor Fu?"

"Ah, it's me." Doctor Fu spread the herbs in the sack on the winnowing basket and looked up at the other person. "Who are you?"

Su Mo was dressed like a typical nobleman from the capital, with an outstanding appearance and demeanor, not like someone from a small town.

Doctor Fu was stunned for a moment, and inexplicably felt that this person was not here to see a doctor.

"Is there something wrong?" Doctor Fu asked.

Su Mo smiled humbly: "I'm here to ask Doctor Fu to see a doctor."

Doctor Fu said, "I'm on a house call. Are you in a hurry? It may not be convenient today. A patient will come to change his dressing later. He is seriously injured. I have to change his dressing before I can leave."

"We're going to the capital." Su Mo said.

Then he shook his head like a rattle: "I can't go to the capital, please find someone else!"

Su Mo said: "I won't reveal Doctor Fu's whereabouts."

"It's not about where she is. My mother is old and I'm worried about her after she's been in the capital for so long... Wait, what do you mean by not revealing her whereabouts?" Doctor Fu was halfway through his words when he suddenly realized something was wrong.

A hint of vigilance flashed across his eyes.

At this time, Aunt Fu came out with a cane.

Aunt Fu said calmly, "You can go back. My son will not go to the capital to see a doctor."

Su Mo cupped his hands and performed a junior's salute: "Madam Fu, my grandfather's illness can only be cured by Doctor Fu."

Aunt Fu said in a deep voice: "I said that my son's medical skills can't cure the old marquis!"

Su Mo said, "How could that be? Three days ago, my father accidentally inhaled willow catkins and was in critical condition. Your son's beloved disciple saved my father's life. You know a little about your father's condition. Every time he has an attack, it is really dangerous."

"Mom, do you know each other?" asked Doctor Fu.

Aunt Fu didn't answer him, but looked at him coldly: "You accepted a disciple?"

Doctor Fu's eyes flashed: "Ah... this..."

Aunt Fu asked, "When did you collect it?"

Doctor Fu coughed lightly and said, "Just before the New Year."

Aunt Fu asked soul-searching questions: "Who is he? How old is he? Where does he live? Is he married? Is his family background clean?"

"Innocent, innocent, her family background is very clean, she is from Xinghua Village, how old..." Doctor Fu didn't even catch the girl to ask.

"Sixteen." Su Mo said.

Aunt Fu frowned, as if wondering why Su Mo knew the other person's age, but then she thought that it was probably Su Yuan who said it, so she didn't take it to heart.

"Bring him here to meet me some other day," Aunt Fu said to her son.

Doctor Fu said awkwardly: "That's not necessary..."

If I see you, I will strangle me to death...

Aunt Fu snorted coldly: "Becoming a disciple is a big deal, and I haven't even had a cup of disciple tea yet."

Doctor Fu whispered, "You've already drunk it... Forget about the disciple's tea, you've even eaten the disciple's meal..."

Aunt Fu frowned and asked, "What are you mumbling about?"

Doctor Fu looked serious and said, "Nothing."

Aunt Fu suddenly asked, "Wait, you're from Xinghua Village? The same village as that girl? Why did you go there to recruit disciples?"

Doctor Fu wiped his cold sweat: "I..."

Aunt Fu waved her hand and said, "Forget it, as long as it's not that girl, it's up to you."

"Hmmmm." Doctor Fu said vaguely.

Aunt Fu was almost annoyed with her son: "Did someone cover your mouth? Can you please speak properly?"

Doctor Fu said with a stiff upper lip: "It's her."

"Who is it?" asked Aunt Fu.

Doctor Fu was ready to die: "Su... Daya."

Aunt Fu: “……!!!”

Half a quarter of an hour later, there was a commotion in the Fu family's yard, with occasional screams from Doctor Fu.

Su Mo came out of Chunliu Lane and got on the carriage heading to Xinghua Village.

As soon as he reached the next alley, he stopped the carriage.

"Come out."

He spoke calmly.
