Chapter 246 Tang Bugui stumbled and fainted.
Madam Qian reached out and quickly took Xiao Su Bao's hand: "Mother is here, Mother has always been here!"
Little Su Bao seemed to have cried herself to sleep, and she held tightly to Qian Shi's hand as she fell asleep.
In her dream, she unexpectedly dreamed of the mute old woman.
The mute old woman and her mother stood together, their eyes filled with tenderness as they looked at her.
"Mother, mute grandmother, I miss you so much..." the little girl cried softly, her nose tingling.
The two people in the dream didn't speak, but just looked at Xiao Su Bao tenderly with smiles on their faces.
Suddenly, her dream shattered.
She saw a strange figure from behind, it looked like a man!
Little Su Bao wanted to see the man's face clearly, but she couldn't see it no matter what she did.
The man was crying while holding a box, and it seemed he was calling his own name.
"Su Bao, Su Bao... How could this be..."
"I don't believe it! My daughter couldn't be dead! If she is, I'll make the entire Lan family pay with their lives!"
For some reason, Xiao Su Bao felt a fullness in her chest, as if it were warm.
She reached out to grab the man and get a good look at him.
But he grabbed at nothing, and suddenly opened his eyes, waking up with a start.
The little dumpling sat up, rubbed its eyes, and a strange emotion flickered in its eyes.
Is that man my father?
Is the Lan family he mentioned the same Lan family?
It's only been a little over half a month, but why does it feel like so much time has passed for her?
"Little Su Bao, you're awake?" a voice called out.
The little dumpling immediately turned its head and looked over, only to see a miniature version of the mute old woman lying next to it.
The little dumpling was stunned for a moment, its tuft of hair sticking up, before it finally reacted.
Looking at the dazed little Su Bao, Yang Nuannuan couldn't help but cover her lips and chuckle.
She reached out and touched Xiao Su Bao's hair, saying gently, "You're so cute!"
Xiao Su Bao's cheeks flushed instantly, and she looked at Yang Nuan Nuan with blinking eyes.
She felt a little embarrassed when she thought about her previous lapse in composure.
Looking at Xiao Su Bao's appearance, Yang Nuannuan liked her little sister even more.
"If you get up, could you show me around Tangjia Village?" Yang Nuannuan said somewhat shyly.
Xiao Su Bao was stunned, only then realizing that she was actually in the Tang family's house.
"Mmm..." She nodded immediately and started to dress herself.
Yang Nuannuan reached out her hand.
"Let me help you!" Her hands were warm, and although her movements were slow, they were very practiced.
Xiao Su Bao was taken aback, and silently let Yang Nuan Nuan help her.
"Thank you..." The little dumpling blushed and glanced at Yang Nuannuan.
The two children happily walked out of the house.
The sky outside was already beginning to brighten. Little Su Bao looked at the sky and couldn't help but think of the man in her dream.
I wonder what he's doing?
She would dream about a man when she was very young, and she secretly told her mother about it.
My mother said that was her father, a great hero!
"Sister, I'll take you to the village to play with Sister Tang Xin and the others. They're all so nice!" Little Su Bao squinted her eyes, seemingly having recovered her spirits.
At that moment, Tang Bugui, who was thinking about his daughter, suddenly woke up.
His tears soaked the jar in his arms!
It turns out that the man who said he had found out about the young general's daughter yesterday, but it wasn't exactly good news.
Little Su Bao is dead!
The two nannies and Xiao Su Bao were all taken away. In the end, only Xiao Su Bao's blood-stained clothes were left in the mountains.
Upon hearing this news, Tang Bugui became even more gloomy.
He had never seen his daughter, and had never even heard of her before returning home.
But when he saw his daughter's tiny clothes, Tang Bugui felt as if his heart had been struck hard by a blunt object.
He was breathing heavily, feeling a tightness and pain in his chest.
He clutched his chest, tears streaming down his face.
Is he really a cursed lone star?
Tang Bugui took a deep breath, tears streaming down his face.
In a daze, he had a dream about a beautiful, delicate little girl.
But no matter what he did, he couldn't see the girl's face clearly.
The little girl looked at him and smiled. Even though he couldn't see her face clearly, he could still feel that she was smiling.
He tried to grab her, but he couldn't touch her no matter what he did.
"Shuyu, wait for me and your daughter, just wait for me!" he murmured, his voice carrying an air of mystery.
He had clearly experienced so many life-and-death situations, and he had clearly killed so many people.
But now...
The thought of his little baby's tiny body being torn apart made him feel so much pain he couldn't breathe.
He should have come back sooner. If he had come back even sooner, perhaps all of this would have happened...
"General... His Majesty has sent someone to summon you to the palace!" Guard Ling stood cautiously at the door and called out in a low voice.
Tang Bugui raised his head, his eyes filled with a strange look.
"Yes, I understand!" His hoarse, deep voice slowly came out.
Ling, the guard, felt a pang of heartache. He clenched his fists and grew to hate the Lan family.
If it weren't for them, the general wouldn't have acted this way...
The general was so happy before he returned to the capital.
He was so excited when he talked about the girl he was going to marry.
In order to return as soon as possible, the general resolved the war, which would have taken another year to resolve, in the shortest possible time.
Tang Bugui changed into a black long robe, and his hair was casually tied up.
In just one night, his white hair had increased by half.
Guard Ling was heartbroken. If he had known this would happen, he would not have let the general come back!
He stepped forward, wanting to help his general.
"I'm fine..." Tang Bugui staggered forward a step.
Guard Ling and General Cheng stood aside, their breaths catching in their throats, but no one dared to step forward.
Their general, it seems...
He looks decades older!
In the palace, the emperor and his wife discussed Tang Bugui's marriage, even though it was a marriage in the afterlife...
But for their beloved child, the two still decided to hold a grand celebration.
As the two were talking, they suddenly heard the father-in-law's voice.
"Your Majesty, General Tang is almost at the door..." The chief eunuch's face was somewhat grim, and his voice trembled slightly.
Upon seeing this, the emperor frowned slightly.
"You old fool, speak up! What are you stammering about?" the emperor said irritably.
The steward sighed, then bowed and said, "Your Majesty, General Tang... his hair has turned white!"
The emperor stood up instantly, his expression changed slightly, and without paying attention to anything else, he hurriedly walked towards the door.
The Empress frowned and followed suit.
As soon as the two stood at the entrance of the palace, they saw Tang Bugui walking towards them.
When the man saw the two of them, he tried to grin, but his expression was more like a grimace.
The emperor, disregarding everything else, strode over in a few steps.
"What's wrong with you, child? How could you be so sick after only a few days..." The emperor frowned, feeling only heartache for Tang Bugui.
She's clearly a child, but looks older than me.
The Empress also stepped forward to look at Tang Bugui. He was an orphan, but back then, he protected the Emperor and Empress with his small figure.
The child was stabbed dozens of times while protecting them.
From that moment on, the emperor and empress made up their minds to treat the child well.
At that time, Tang Bugui had no idea of their identities and only regarded them as an ordinary couple.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I didn't..." Tang Bugui opened his mouth, but suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
Tang Bugui stumbled and fainted.
"Quickly, fetch the imperial physician!" The emperor was extremely anxious. Ignoring the eyes of others, he carried Tang Bugui into the side hall in a princess carry.
With this hug, a hint of heartache appeared in the emperor's eyes.
Despite being a tall, strong man, he was so thin that the man could easily lift him up.
