240 Your Son Is Fake
Su Xiaoxiao roughly understood the structure of the Protectoratefrom Su Mo. She roughly knew that her current location was not far from the main kitchen of the residence.
That was true. She could smell it too. It was the fragrance of roasted venison.
It seemed that the food in the Protectorate was not bad.
Thinking of Father Su, who had not eaten well in the countryside, Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes flashed coldly.
A patrolling guard walked past the courtyard wall. Su Xiaoxiao didn’t want her aura to be sensed and walked towards the noisy and busy kitchen.
She hid behind a nearby rockery.
At this time, ordinary families had long rested. Only the main kitchen of the Protectorate was still busy.
A nanny in charge led the two maidservants into the kitchen in a hurry. As she walked, she instructed, “Have you remembered what I instructed you to do? The Little High Duke doesn’t eat anything fat. Remember to remove the oil on the ginseng soup.”
“Also, don’t stew the bird’s nest you bought last month for the young master anymore. Use the bird’s nest you bought a few days ago.”
“Nanny, should we use blood swallows or…”
“Of course, it’s blood swallow! What kind of noble status does the Little High Duke have? Who are you mocking by giving him ordinary bird’s nest?”
“Got it, Nanny.” The little maidservant lowered her head and obediently followed the housekeeper into the kitchen.
Su Ergou had not eaten meat in the countryside for a long time. Being able to drink some soup made of lard and eat rice mixed with lard was a delicacy to Su Ergou.
What was bird’s nest? Su Ergou had never seen it before.
Su Xiaoxiao stayed behind the rockery for a while. After confirming that the guards had gone far, she flashed out.
Coincidentally, the supper in the kitchen was ready.
One portion was for Qin Yun and the other was for Qin Che.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t hesitate and followed the maidservant who brought Qin Che supper.
The two maidservants did not know that they were being followed and whispered about the residence.
“Sigh, the Little High Duke is in trouble again. Fortunately, the High Duke suppressed it and didn’t let it reach the Old Master’s ears.”
“If the Old Master finds out, he will punish the Little High Duke. His body can’t withstand the Old Master’s whip.”
“The Old Master’s whip couldn’t hit the Little High Duke. Didn’t the High Duke stop him every time? The High Duke would say that he didn’t teach his son well. If he want to whip, he should whip the High Duke. The High Duke suffered among the commoners and his body was damaged. How could the Old Master bear to do it?”
“Fortunately, our Miss is sensible. With her help in the future, the Little High Duke won’t suffer.”
Speak of the devil. Qin Yanran walked over with her maidservant.
The two maidservants were shocked and hurriedly bowed. “Miss!”
Qin Yanran glanced at the two of them and asked, “Is it for my father?”
“Yes,” one of the maids said.
Qin Yanran said, “Give it to me. I’ll send it over.”
The two maidservants handed the food box in their hands to Qin Yanran’s maidservant.
After Qin Yanran left, the two of them discussed softly.
“Did you see the pearl bracelet on Missy’s head just now?”
“What pearl? That’s called Shark Pearl. It’s from the South Sea! I heard that it costs a hundred taels of silver each! Our Duke bought a whole string for Miss without a word!”
“The Duke really dotes on Miss. Our Miss is so lucky.”
“She was born into an aristocratic family. How can her fate be bad? Not all the daughters of aristocratic families have this fortune.”
“That’s right. The Protector Duke is really rich.”
“You’re new here, so there are many things you don’t know. This isn’t something that can be bought with money… The Protector Duke is powerful and influential. It’s not something that any family can compare to. Of course, only our Eldest Miss is worthy of such expensive shark pearls. If it were any other young lady, she would just be a poor imitation!”
The two maidservants bragged that Qin Yanran was the only one in the world.
Su Xiaoxiao actually had no feelings for Qin Yanran, but she was impatient to listen to this. She wanted to investigate Qin Che.
However, there was only a small path here. The two maidservants blocked her way and did not leave, causing her to be unable to move.
When someone from the kitchen came to rush them, Qin Yanran had long left.
So which courtyard was Qin Che’s?
She could only figure it out as she walked.
As she walked, she suddenly heard a few men talking ahead.
“The few of you, increase your guard tonight. Send more men to the side and back doors!”
“Brother Feng, why are we suddenly on high alert tonight? Is something big about to happen in the capital?”
“Is this something you can ask?”
“I know my mistake!”
“Hurry up!”
“Yes!”
Su Xiaoxiao frowned suspiciously.
Strengthen security and send more people?
What was the situation?
Could it be that she had been exposed?
No, if she was really exposed, they would be searching the residence carefully.
The four guards walked in this direction. Su Xiaoxiao had no suitable place to hide. She could only turn around and climb into a quiet courtyard beside her.
Just as she entered, Qin Yanran came over.
Su Xiaoxiao frowned and flashed into a room.
“Is my grandfather around?”
Qin Yanran’s voice came from outside the door.
The servant replied, “Miss, Old Master has rested.”
“So early?” Qin Yanran asked. “Where does my grandfather feel unwell? He usually practices martial arts at this hour.”
The servant said, “I’m not sure either.”
Old Master would not explain anything to servants like them.
Qin Yanran was worried. “I’ll go in and see Grandpa.”
The servant did not dare to stop her and moved aside.
“Grandpa, I’m Yanran. I’m coming in.” As soon as Qin Yanran finished speaking, she waited at the door for a moment and gently pushed it open.
Su Xiaoxiao’s eyebrows twitched as she crawled under the bed.
Sob, she was stuck before she could move half her body in. Su Xiaoxiao crawled out again and hid in the closet.
The cabinet was also narrow… and the door almost could not be closed.
She would never admit that she was fat!
She pulled the cabinet door closed with both hands.
Qin Yanran walked around the screen and came to the bed.
Qin Canglan slept very soundly under the effect of the medicine.
Qin Yanran came to the bed.
“Grandpa, Grandpa.”
She called out softly twice. Seeing that Qin Canglan was probably only asleep, she was slightly relieved.
The back of her hand touched her grandfather’s forehead. It wasn’t hot.
“Phew.”
She heaved another sigh of relief.
In the closet, Su Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth. She muttered to herself,”It’s time to leave, right? I can’t hold the closet door closet anymore…”
Qin Yanran sat down on the stool beside the bed.
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless!
This position was strenuous, and the cabinet was stuffy. No one understood the little fatty’s pain.
Qin Yanran finally left.
Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly left the cabinet and pulled off the cloth covering her face, panting heavily.
“I’m suffocating…”
Wait.
Qin Yanran was Qin Che’s daughter. She called the man on the bed her grandfather.
Was this person the Old Protector Duke?
Interesting. She had accidentally entered the Old Protector Duke’s room.
Was he involved in the accident back then?
It was rumored that the Old Protector Duke and his first wife were deeply in love, but the rumors were just rumors. Marriage was like drinking water, and the drinker would know if the water was cold or warm.
After the daughter of the Su family passed away, Qin Canglan’s mother found another wife for him.
Qin Canglan had no children with his second wife and their relationship was cold.
Later on, Qin Canglan’s mother and his second wife passed away one after another. Qin Canglan did not remarry.
Cold moonlight shone in.
Su Xiaoxiao lifted the veil and looked at the frowning man on the bed.
From his looks, he was very fierce.
She tilted her head.
Oh, did he take medicine?
This breathing was clearly wrong for a general.
Suddenly, Qin Canglan seemed to have sensed something and suddenly opened his eyes.
Su Xiaoxiao never expected him to wake up so suddenly.
A hundred ways to kill him flashed across Su Xiaoxiao’s mind…
“Huayin…” Qin Canglan spoke in a daze.
Qin Canglan’s consciousness was chaotic. The effects of the painkillers made him dizzy.
What was wrong with him tonight? Did he dream of Huayin time and time again?
Su Xiaoxiao blinked.
Qin Canglan raised his head with difficulty. “Huayin… is it really you?”
Su Huayin was the name of the daughter of the Su family.
Qin Canglan’s old eyes flickered. “Huayin… are you here to pick me up?”
Pick him up? Why? So they could go to Pear Blossom Lane to play cards?
Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes darted around and she decisively used Wei Ting’s move. “You’re dreaming.”
With that, she raised her small fist and punched down!
No!
Su Xiaoxiao’s fist stopped half an inch away from his head.
Qin Canglan did not dodge at all.
Even in a half-asleep state, a general would not lose his survival instinct to protect himself.
Then there was only one explanation. If Su Huayin wanted to kill him, he would lie flat and let Su Huayin kill him.
“Don’t sleep yet!”
Su Xiaoxiao held his hand and said extremely seriously, “I’m sending you a dream. Your son is fake!”
