Chapter 258: Caring Tiger (Update 1)



The old marquis felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by his little granddaughter.

Unfortunately, the wheelchair was not very obedient and its wheels got stuck in the grass pit.

He stood up irritably and moved the wheelchair over.

Su Xiaoxiao: “…”

Inside the house, Su Cheng was showing off his weapons to his son.

"Look, this is the Cloud-Breaking Knife, it's much more powerful than the Butcher Knife. With one strike like this, bang!"

Su Cheng gestured.

Su Ergou's eyes lit up: "Dad, I want to play too."

Su Cheng hurriedly said: "You can't play, you will get hurt."

He picked up a spear and said, "A knife is not as good as a sword, and a sword is not as good as a spear. Do you know where the power of a spear lies?"

Su Ergou shook his head like a rattle.

"Dad." Su Xiaoxiao walked in, "Someone wants to kill your son-in-law."

Su Cheng poked the spear into the ground and asked fiercely, "Who?!"

Su Xiaoxiao turned around and looked at Qin Canglan and the old marquis who followed her.

The two big guys look at each other, and we feel blessed for each other.

He raised his head and pointed at the other person: "Him!"

Su Cheng's face darkened: "You want to kill my son-in-law?"

The two denied it immediately: "No, no, it was a misunderstanding, we didn't say we wanted to kill him!"

These two bosses were not born from the same mother, but they have never had such tacit understanding in a war.

Qin Canglan: It’s so terrible. In my son’s eyes, I’m not as good as a kidnapped son-in-law.

Old Marquis: Uncle is not as good as son-in-law, the rough man sighed.

Su Xiaoxiao was very satisfied.

Sure enough, in order to hit the weak spots of the two, her father must be included.

There are some things that are only clear to bystanders and those involved in the matter. Su Xiaoxiao, standing in the position of a bystander, would feel that things might not be that simple.

For example, why did Wu'an Jun rebel?

If the Prince of Nanyang was still alive, it would barely be understandable. However, in the seventh year of Emperor Jingxuan's accession to the throne, the Prince of Nanyang was discovered plotting a rebellion. This was his own brother, and for the sake of the Queen Mother, Emperor Jingxuan did not announce the Prince of Nanyang's crimes to the world, but secretly sentenced the entire family of Prince Nanyang to death, announcing to the outside world that he had unfortunately contracted the plague.

Could it be that Wu'an Jun wanted to avenge King Nanyang?

It seems that I have to go and ask the Wei family about what happened back then.

"grandfather!"

“Grandpa!”

"grandfather!"

Suddenly, the chirping sounds of three little kids were heard not far away. Su Cheng, who was standing at the door, ruthlessly pushed the two big guys aside, threw away his spear, ran over and picked up the three little kids.

Xiaohu was stuck in the middle, sticking out his tongue wildly: "It's going to be deflated! It's going to be deflated!"

Su Cheng put the three little guys down, squatted down and touched their heads: "Do you miss grandpa?"

"Yes!" Dahu said obediently.

"Erhu has it too!"

Xiaohu patted his chest very seriously and said, "Xiaofu is the best!"

"Ha ha!"

Su Cheng was amused by the three little guys.

He looked around: "Where's your dad?"

Xiaohu complained: "I slept late, Uncle Hei sent it here."

Yuchi Xiu outside the horse farm: I am just wearing black clothes, not the black uncle! Su Xiaoxiao was also quite surprised by the arrival of the three little guys.

She thought that Old Lady Wei would let them stay at her house overnight.

In fact, Old Lady Wei did keep it, but the three little ones didn't buy it.

They were having fun at first, but as soon as it got dark they started looking for Su Xiaoxiao, and Wei Ting couldn't stop them.

Lady Wei had no choice but to ask Yuchi Xiu and Fusu to send the person over.

After not seeing each other for many days, the three little ones missed Su Cheng very much. They snuggled in Su Cheng's arms and even forgot to look for their mother for a short while.

Xiaohu pushed Dahu and said, "Move aside a little, you're squeezing me."

Dahu didn't tolerate him and pushed him out directly.

Compared to Big Tiger, Little Tiger is just a little brother in terms of strength.

But he just can't win and he always flirts with others.

The two little guys started fighting again.

"Okay, okay, grandpa will hold you all, all of you!"

Su Cheng stopped the violent conflict between the two in time.

Su Cheng looked at Xiao Hu and sighed helplessly: "You said you can't win, why do you always tease me?"

Xiaohu put his hands on his hips and stamped his feet: "When I grow up, I will be able to win!"

Erhu said, "You have grown up, and Dahu has grown up too, but you still can't beat him."

Dahu nodded.

Xiao Hu was angry and stretched out his little arms to draw a big circle: "I, I, I am bigger than him!"

Children's tempers come and go quickly. The two who were quarreling one second ago were squatting together catching crickets the next.

"Big Tiger, I can't catch it." Little Tiger said sullenly.

"Here you go." Dahu caught a big one and gave it to his younger brother.

"I want one too." said Erhu.

Dahu started catching crickets for his younger brothers.

Su Cheng missed the food his daughter cooked, and the chef happened to slaughter two sheep.

Su Xiaoxiao decided to make a whole roasted lamb.

The cook at the stable helped Su Xiaoxiao and built a bonfire on the pasture.

"Are there any sesame seeds?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.

"Yes, yes!" The cook went into the kitchen and brought out a large jar of roasted white sesame seeds.

"It's almost cooked." Su Xiaoxiao asked the cook to watch the fire first. She went into the kitchen to stir-fry some mixed sauce and would make noodles with mixed sauce later.

The aroma of the roasted whole lamb and scallion sauce filled the entire horse farm.

The three little guys gathered around the campfire, staring at the roasted whole lamb and drooling.

Su Ergou stared at them, fearing that if he wasn't careful, the three of them would rush up and eat the uncooked sheep.

Su Mo also stayed for dinner.

It was quite lively around the bonfire.

Qin Canglan sat alone on the grassland with his back to the moonlight. His tall body was shrouded in the night, and he felt a little lonely and isolated.

Da Hu came over and tilted his head to look at him: "Big Grandpa, what's wrong with you?"

Qin Canglan didn't say anything.

"Big grandpa, are you unhappy?" Dahu continued to ask.

A hint of complexity flashed across Qin Canglan's eyes, but he still ignored Dahu.

Da Hu thought for a moment and took out a big cricket from his left pocket: "I just caught a big cricket, do you want one?"

Seeing that Qin Canglan was unmoved, he took out a piece of crispy candy wrapped in paper from his right pocket.

Qin Canglan still didn't reach out his hand.

Dahu asked him to go play again, but he didn't move.

Da Hu walked away dejectedly.

Qin Canglan looked back at the lonely figure of the little guy, wondering if he had gone too far.

He was just a child—

But he is the child of the Wei family——

Qin Canglan turned his head away.

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps came again.

A small hand handed a small bottle to him: "Here you go."

This is Da Hu’s favorite, even his master hasn’t given it to him.

What Qin Canglan didn't tell Su Xiaoxiao was that his most capable subordinate, the brother with whom he had been through thick and thin, died at the hands of Wu'an Jun and King of Nanyang.

Dahu was still young and didn't quite understand the grudges between adults, but he could feel the great sadness in Qin Canglan.

He put the bottle on the ground, and imitated his mother, reaching out his little hand to touch Qin Canglan's cheek: "Big grandfather, don't be sad."
