      Chapter 174: Someone from the Hou Mansion (3rd watch)

       "Maybe I didn't sleep well last night." Su Yuan said warmly.

      Qin Yun said: "Oh, uncle, hurry up and take a rest. Cousin, let's go hunting, don't disturb uncle's rest!"

      Su Mo paused, and said, "I have a few friends who want to visit, I'm afraid I won't be able to hunt with you today."

       "Huh?" Qin Yun was disappointed.

      He is a child raised by the two families, and his requests are generally rarely rejected.

      If it was the past, Su Mo would follow him.

      But right now there is indeed a major event that has to be done immediately.

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

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

       Last time, he was compared by a country bumpkin, and was whipped by that bumpkin. It took two days for his face to heal. He was holding a sigh of relief in his heart, and he had to go to the forest to find it!

      Su Mo said seriously: "Not today."

      Qin Yun curled his lips, and left unwillingly: "I'll go find my second and third cousins!"

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

    Although Qin Yun's elder sister was also spoiled, she is much more sensible than Qin Yun. She is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has a gentle and virtuous temperament. She is a well-known talented woman in Capital City.

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

      He frowned: "It's not too late, Mo'er, you set off for apricot flower town today."

       "Yes, Father."

       "Wait." Su Yuan stopped the eldest son, "Master Xiang and Master Jing Xiaohou are also in apricot flower town, you... remember to avoid them."

      Su Mo nodded: "My son understands."

      After discussing the travel details with Su Yuan, Su Mo left the ancestral house in a carriage.

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

      He opened a gap in the rear curtain of the carriage, glanced at it, and lowered the curtain calmly.

      Su Mo chose a first-class horse and arrived in the town in the afternoon.

       This is his first visit to apricot flower town. To ensure the smooth completion of the task, he brought a map and a driver who knows the way.

      The driver is not Zheng Guang.

       Zheng Guang's face has already been used. Su Mo was not sure about the attitude of Xiao Su's family towards Su Yuan. To be cautious, he chose a boy with an unfamiliar face.

       "Go to Chunliu Lane." He said.

      The driver didn’t dare to ask, aren’t we going to Xinghua Village?Why did change the way to Chunliu Lane.

    Don't look at Su Mo as a gentle and filial son in front of Su Yuan, in fact Su Mo's temper is much stronger than Su Yuan's. In private, the servants are very jealous of Su Mo.

       "Here we are." Su Mo said.

      The coachman parked the carriage at the gate of Fu's house.

       It is important to investigate Xiao Su's family, but the grandfather's body cannot be ignored either.

      His grandfather spent his entire life as a soldier, so he shouldn't have spent his last days on the sickbed without dignity.

      Fu Langzhong came back from a doctor's visit and was drying medicinal herbs in the yard.

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

      Su Mo has never met Fu Langzhong.

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

       "Ah, it's me." Fu Langzhong spread the medicinal materials in the sack on the dustpan, looked up at the other party, "You are?"

      Su Mo is dressed like a normal Capital City aristocrat, with an outstanding appearance and demeanor that doesn't look like people in the town.

      Fu Langzhong was stunned for a moment, inexplicably feeling that this person did not come to see a doctor.

       "What's the matter?" Fu Langzhong asked.

      Su Mo smiled modestly: "I'm here to ask Fu Langzhong to see me."

      Fu Langzhong said: "Are you in a hurry? It may not be convenient today. A patient will come to change his dressing later on. He is seriously injured. I have to finish changing him before leaving."

       "To Capital City." Su Mo said.

      Fu Langzhong was taken aback again.

       Immediately, he shook his head like a rattle: "I can't go to Capital City, please find someone else!"

      Su Mo said: "I will not disclose Fu Langzhong's whereabouts."

       "It's not her whereabouts, my mother is old, and I have been to Capital City for so long, I can't rest assured... Wait, why don't you reveal your whereabouts?" Fu Langzhong suddenly realized something was wrong.

       A trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

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

      Aunt Fu said lightly: "You go back, my son will not go to Capital City for outpatient visits."

      Su Mo cupped his hands and saluted as a junior: "Mrs. Fu, my grandfather's illness can only be healed by Fu Langzhong."

      Aunt Fu said in a deep voice: "I said, my son's medical skills can't cure Old Marquis!"

    Su Mo said: "How could it be? Three days ago, my father accidentally inhaled catkins and was in danger. The son's beloved disciple saved my father's life. You know something about my father's situation, and it is really dangerous when it happens."

       "Mother, do you know each other?" Fu Langzhong asked.

      Aunt Fu didn't answer his words, but looked at him with a cold face: "Have you accepted an apprentice?"

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

      Aunt Fu asked: "When did you receive it?"

    Fu Langzhong coughed lightly: "Just, just a few years ago."

      Aunt Fu sent out a soul torture: "Who is it? How old is it? Where does the family live? Do you have a wife? Is the family background clean?"

       "Clear, clear, innocent, the family background is very innocent, from Xinghua Village, how many, how old..." Fu Langzhong didn't catch other girls and asked.

       "Sixteen." Su Mo said.

      Aunt Fu frowned, as if wondering why Su Mo knew the age of the other party, but she thought it was probably Su Yuan who said it, and she didn't take it to heart.

       "Bring me some other day and I'll see you." Aunt Fu said to her son.

      Fu Langzhong said embarrassingly: "No need..."

       When I see you, don’t strangle me...

      Aunt Fu snorted coldly: "Apprenticeship is a big deal, I haven't had a cup of apprentice tea yet."

      Fu Langzhong whispered: "You have already drank it...don't talk about disciple tea, you have even eaten disciple meal..."

      Aunt Fu frowned and said, "What are you muttering about?"

      Fu Langzhong looked solemn: "Nothing."

      Aunt Fu suddenly said: "Wait, from Xinghua Village? The same village as that girl? Why did you go there to accept apprentices?"

      Fu Langzhong wiped off his cold sweat: "I..."

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

       "Yeah." Fu Langzhong said vaguely.

      Aunt Fu was annoyed to death by his son: "Is your mouth so confusing? Can you talk properly?"

      Fu Langzhong bit the bullet and said, "That's her."

       "Who is it?" Aunt Fu asked.

      Fu Langzhong regards death as home: "Su... Big Ya."

      Aunt Fu: "...!!!"

       Half a quarter of an hour later, the yard of the Fu's house was filled with chaos, accompanied by a few screams from Fu Langzhong from time to time.

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

      Just reached the next alley, he stopped the carriage.

    "Come out."

      He opened his mouth lightly.
