The couple could wait for the children to wake up and ride the donkey cart together.

Mrs. Wu hadn’t expected her biggest worry to be resolved so easily.

It seemed like there was nothing Daya couldn’t handle. She felt incredibly lucky to have Daya in her life.

——

On the other hand, the messenger pigeon that Su Mo sent to the capital had returned with a reply.

Using messenger pigeons came with risks, as no one could guarantee that the bird wouldn’t get shot down or caught by a predator halfway through their flight. It could only be said that they are quite lucky.

Su Mo took the note from the pigeon and brought it to Su Yuan’s study, “Father! Grandfather has replied!”

“Quick, let’s see what your grandfather said!” Su Yuan exclaimed.

He had absolute trust in his son entirely, and Su Mo would never break the rules to breach his trust.

“Yes.”

With her father’s approval, Su Moo took off the seal, opened the note, read each word carefully, and said to Su Yuan, “Grandfather said, take the person back to the capital.”

Su Yuan asked, “What else?”

Su Mo shook his head, “That’s all.”

Su Yuan: “That… that’s it?”

Su Mo nodded.

“Sigh.” Su Yuan sighed helplessly.

Toward this father, he genuinely respected his father deeply, but sometimes he also felt so helpless.

Perhaps because his father was a man from the military, his father cherished words like gold, he wouldn’t use more words than necessary.

Su Yuan took the note and examined the note himself.

Sure enough, out of all those words, there were some that Su Mo had added. The original message was just: Bring to the Capital.

Su Yuan murmured, “What does….. What does your grandfather mean?”

Su Mo smiled wryly, “Father, you’re his son. If you don’t even know, how am I supposed to guess his intentions? You have known him for 20 years longer than me.”

Su Yuan: “……”

Su Yuan was troubled, “I don’t know about his true identity. What if I bring him to the capital, this assumption turns out to be false and it causes trouble?”

Su Mo replied, “Perhaps Grandfather’s intention is to bring the person back so that he can determine the truth himself?”

Su Yuan: Didn’t you just say that you couldn’t guess your grandfather’s thoughts?

But should they bring some of them, or bring everyone, or just bring Su Cheng?

Grandfather is really……

Su Mo put away the note and said to Su Yuan, “Father, leave this matter to me.”

Su Yuan frowned, “You’re planning to go to Xinghua Town?”

Su Mo smiled and said, “Didn’t father already agree to let me investigate? Last time, I was preoccupied with second younger brother’s coming-of-age ceremony and didn’t get a chance to meet them. This time, I have to see them with my own eyes.”

“Biaoge! Biaoge*!”

*Biaoge (表哥) : older male cousin via female line.

It was Qin Yun.

The father and son stopped their conversation at the right moment.

Qin Yun walked in energetically and said, “Da biaoge*! Oh, Uncle, you’re here too?”

*Da biaoge (大表哥) : Eldest cousin.

Biaoge (表哥) : older male cousin via female line.

Today, Qin Yun was dressed in hunting gear, holding a large bow in his hand, it could be seen that he was going on a hunting trip.

As someone who was born into the noble bloodlines of the Duke Protector Household and the Marquis of Zhenbei, Qin Yun had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth and raised in luxury.

Just a single piece of his clothing or a mouthful of food spared from his plate, could feed an entire rural family for a year.

Thinking of Su Cheng and his two children, who had suffered a lot in the countryside, Su Yuan suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart.

“Uncle, you don’t look well.” Qin Yun said.

Su Mo glanced at his father.

Su Yuan knew that he had lost his composure. The truth was still unconfirmed, and Su Cheng might not necessarily be his Aunt’s son……

But why did he always think about Su Cheng and those two children?
