The master and servant hurried towards the west of the city.
But the west of the city was so vast, finding someone was like searching for a needle in a haystack, not that easy.
As Su Yunmo was getting anxious, she heard Su Siyuan's voice from not far away.
"You brats, daring to lay hands on me, you're tired of living!"
Su Yunmo froze and quickly moved towards the dense woods to the west.
There was a carriage by the dense woods, and it was overturned.
A man lay on the ground, his hands covering his head, knees bent, groaning in pain.
Su Siyuan stepped on him, raised his hand, and slapped him, "Keep crying, keep crying and I'll cut out your tongue!"
Su Yunmo was slightly taken aback, frowned, and walked over, "What happened?"
"Momo, why are you here?" Su Siyuan kicked the man again, "It's nothing, these two brats wanted to kidnap me."
Two?
Su Yunmo turned her head and saw Su Youqing approaching from the other side. Another person was tied to the carriage wheel over there.
"Didn't you go into seclusion in the martial world?"
Su Youqing brushed the dirt off his hands, "I went traveling. I came home today to get a couple of things and happened to see these two traffickers."
He never expected his first act of chivalry after entering the martial world would be to save his own family.
Su Yunmo breathed a sigh of relief, as long as they were safe, "Did you overturn the carriage?"
"Not really." Su Youqing shook his head with a chuckle, "They tied him up, but he bit one of them halfway and tried to jump out of the carriage, startling the horses, and it ended up like this."
Actually, even if he hadn't come today, he would have escaped with a high probability.
"You two, stop chatting and untie me first," Su Siyuan called out anxiously.
Ziyuan stepped forward and untied him.
Su Siyuan spat out in annoyance.
"What's been happening these past few days, it's just bad luck. First elder brother, then second brother, and now me. We should ask father to get a peace charm for the three of us."
Su Yunmo's heart sank, "What happened to elder brother and second brother?"
Su Siyuan threw away the rope and said casually, "Nothing much, the day before yesterday, elder brother was falsely accused of pushing someone into the water at school. Yesterday, second brother was walking normally and was almost hit by a carriage."
However, his brothers were all capable people, and these small incidents wouldn't harm them.
Su Siyuan was carefree, but Su Yunmo's heart suddenly felt a chill.
Pushing someone into the water was attempted murder, punishable by imprisonment.
Being hit by a carriage could lead to instant death or injury!
Su Youqing noticed Su Yunmo's expression was off and chimed in, "This time, I'll be away from the capital for at least a year. I want to find that 'immortal doctor' who can bring the dead back to life and heal bone injuries."
She stepped forward and pulled Su Siyuan, "There are many things, you come back with me to move a few."
Su Siyuan was dragged away, and he called back to Su Yunmo, "Momo, come home with us. Momo? Hey, don't drag me, Momo hasn't left yet!"
Su Yunmo waited for them to leave, took a deep breath, "Ziyuan."
Ziyuan stepped forward and stomped on the person on the ground, "Speak, who ordered you to do this!"
The man cried out, "No one ordered us. We saw that young master was well-dressed and guessed his family should be very rich... Ah!"
Ziyuan twisted his wrist and said word by word, "Last time, who is ordering you!"
The man felt her hand move to his neck and shrieked, "It was the Marquis's son. He gave us money and told us to get rid of the three young masters of the General's mansion."
As expected!
Su Yunmo's eyes flashed with killing intent, and she turned to leave, "Ziyuan, deal with them!"
Lin Chenxi, I warned you!
These past few days.
Both Marquis's mansions were very busy.
The Lin family was already a prestigious and prominent Marquis's mansion, and now they were also married into the royal family.
Moreover, the eldest young master of the Marquis's mansion was devoted to his one love, which became a beautiful story and the talk of the town.
The capital was bustling, but no one in the General's mansion paid attention to this matter.
Su Qingtian was busy with something else.
He had worked hard for more than half a month.
Although he still hadn't heard Su Yunmo call him "Dad," at least when they were alone, it wasn't as tense as before.
General Su felt this was a great success.
Perhaps soon his status in his little girl's heart would surpass Xie Zhengping's.
Perhaps it already had?
As this thought arose, Su Qingtian eagerly sent an invitation to the Xie mansion, inviting Xie Zhengping to the teahouse for a drink.
He brought Su Yunmo with him to the appointment.
When Su Yunmo heard about this, she didn't want to go.
However, General Su had made up his mind. Before she could object, he grabbed her collar and threw her into the carriage.
The family of five headed to the largest teahouse in the capital.
The private room had already been booked.
Xie Zhengping arrived first.
He signaled the waiter to arrange the tea and pastries, "It's been two or three years since I've been here. Why are you in the mood to invite me for tea today?"
Drinking tea was an excuse; the real intention was probably to provoke him.
"You are, after all, the god-father of my daughter. I'm bringing the little girl to see you, and you have an opinion?" Su Qingtian sat opposite him with an arrogant expression.
I'm here to show off my daughter, what can you do about it!
"Of course not." Xie Zhengping took a piece of pastry and beckoned Su Yunmo over.
After all, the little one was his daughter now too.
Su Yunmo stood at the door, gesturing outside.
"Momo?"
Xie Zhengping called out, and Su Yunmo snapped back to attention, walked over obediently, "Godfather, Momo misses you so much!"
At the teahouse staircase, Ziyuan received the order and quickly retreated to make preparations.
"Good child." Xie Zhengping rubbed her face and casually glanced at Su Qingtian.
Su Qingtian was furious, and he also took a pastry and held it up to Su Yunmo, saying just one word: "Eat!"
Su Yunmo looked at the two "father" faces and the two pastries, speechless.
They didn't get along, why did they always use her as an excuse?
"I'm going to eat here today no matter what! If there's no private room, clear one out immediately. If you babble any more, believe it or not, I'll cut you!"
The shouting from downstairs attracted the attention of the two men.
Su Yunmo was temporarily relieved.
Su Qingtian opened the window a crack and frowned, "Jiang Kou? Wasn't he injured in a vital area? How is he able to go out so soon."
"I heard a self-proclaimed 'divine doctor' went to his mansion to treat him a few days ago, so his injury healed very quickly." Xie Zhengping always despised people like him.
Jiang Kou had done a lot of harm to innocent people and bullied the weak over the years. If it weren't for Jiang Shanyi protecting him, he would have died a thousand times over.
Why save such a person.
Su Qingtian also rarely agreed with him, "What divine doctor, truly has medical skills but no medical ethics."
Su Yunmo cast a resentful glance at the two of them and said nothing.
A whistle sounded from downstairs.
Su Yunmo lowered her eyes, "Godfather, General Su, I need to go to the privy."
Xie Zhengping patted her head, "Go ahead."
Su Yunmo turned and left.
Xie Zhengping watched her leave, raised an eyebrow, and looked at Su Qingtian, "She calls you General Su?"
Su Qingtian's face turned very dark.
He had intended to compete with Xie Zhengping in front of the little girl, but with those three words, what was there to compete about!
Seeing him flustered, Xie Zhengping, for once, didn't rub salt in his wound, "Daughters are little cotton-padded jackets."
Su Qingtian snorted, "Mine is leaky."
