General, Your Wife Is Requesting Your Return Home For Farming

With that, she left angrily.

The house fell silent.

Wei Ting guarded Zhuge Qing’s bed and stared at Sai Huatuo warily.

The two relatively calm people at the event location were the assassin and Su Xiaoxiao.

The assassin had already calmed down, but Su Xiaoxiao was still in a state of mind. She and Saihua Tuo sat on two stools in front of the bed. She turned around and asked Saihua Tuo, “Can I ask you… what’s your relationship?” One moment, it was an island, and the next moment, it was the mess with Feng Xiaoran.

Saihua Tuo sighed helplessly. “I didn’t want to mention some sad things, but you won’t believe me if I don’t.”

Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and gestured for him to continue.

Sai Huatuo recalled, “When my son was very young, he fell into the cold lake because of a mistake. After that, he contracted a cold illness, which was the cold poison. I was also a physician, but unfortunately, I couldn’t cure the cold poison in his body. I brought him everywhere to seek treatment. The heavens didn’t disappoint those who worked hard. I really found a prescription, but unfortunately, the herbs on the prescription were very difficult to gather. Just like you this time, I first received half of the herbs on the prescription and made the first pill. After my son took the pill, I heard that there were herbs I needed on an island in Northern Yan. I immediately brought that rascal of a disciple to the island.

“As soon as we landed on the island, we vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but I was too anxious to find the herbs and asked the rascal to keep an eye on the boat. I’ll be back soon. When I returned to the shore, he had already rowed the boat away.

“I was caught by the villain on the island and became a slave. It was Sir who saved me and brought me out of the island. When I returned home, my son had already passed away, and my things had been swept away by that villain. My son passed away a year after taking medicine.”

Su Xiaoxiao had an epiphany. “But you just said that Zhuge Qing still has half a

year.”

Saihua Tuo frowned and said, “Sir’s condition is worse than my son’s. The medicine can only last for half a year.”

What did Zhuge Qing experience on the island… Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Since

Zhuge Qing saved you, why did you join Feng Xiaoran?”

Sai Huatuo explained, “I’m doing this for the herbs in Feng Xiaoran’s hand. He has a total of two herbs in his hand, and the Purple Phoenix Grass has already been taken away by you. The other herb is the Purple Lingzhi. I was going for the Purple Lingzhi back then. Yesterday, I accidentally bumped into the Wei Nation’s medicine merchant selling the Purple Phoenix Grass. I lied that I needed this herb in His Majesty’s Great Nourishment Pill and asked Feng Xiaoran to buy the herb.”

Mei Ji stood at the door and scolded, “Nonsense, nonsense, nonsense! You revealed Master’s illness to Feng Xiaoran! You’re a traitor! ” The assassin glanced at her. “I thought you left.”

Mei Ji snorted.

Saihua Tuo smiled bitterly. “If I want to obtain Feng Xiaoran’s trust, I have to give him some benefits. Moreover, even if I didn’t say it, he would have seen Sir’s medical case long ago.”

Mei Ji mocked, “But at least he doesn’t know what herbs we need! Now, he’ll snatch all the herbs we want!”

Saihua Tuo sighed. “I only told him the first half of the prescription. I didn’t mention a word about the second half.”

Mei Ji turned her face away. “Hmph, who would believe you!”

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Can you let me see the second half of the prescription?”

Saihua Tuo took out a wrinkled prescription from his pocket. Be it the yellowed paper or the blurry handwriting, it was obvious that it was old. It was definitely not forged tonight.

In his youth, Saihua Tuo did not know Zhuge Qing, so he naturally would not guess that he would one day use a fake prescription to cheat him of his trust.

Therefore, this prescription was real.

Su Xiaoxiao showed the prescription to Wei Ting.

Wei Ting was an expert in this area. He would know at a glance if it was fake.

He nodded at Su Xiaoxiao and returned the prescription to Saihua Tuo.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, ‘Your son has already passed away. Why do you still want to refine the antidote? Is it to repay Zhuge Qing for saving your life?”

Saihua Tuo laughed at himself. “You can say that. You can also think of it as an obsession in my heart.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded and asked, “You just said that you’re still short of four herbs. Which four are they?”

Sai Huatuo said, “The Purple Lingzhi in Feng Xiaoran’s hand, the Jade Coral in the Third Prince’s residence, and the snow region’s Snow Domain Hemp and Snake Bone Flower.”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Where are the last two herbs?”

Saihua Tuo shook his head. “I’m not sure.”

He looked at the night sky outside the window and said, “I have to go. I came out with the excuse of buying medicine. I have to rush back later. If I go back late, Feng Xiaoran will definitely be suspicious. I’ll help you get the Purple Lingzhi as soon as possible. You can only rely on yourself on the Third Prince.”

After Saihua Tuo left, the assassin left the house.

Only Zhuge Qing, Su Xiaoxiao, and Wei Ting were left in the room.

“What do you think?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Wei Ting was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he asked first, “Is the prescription correct?”

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “I know most of the herbs in the prescription. The medicinal properties are indeed used to treat cold diseases. Why? Do you suspect that Saihua Tuo is lying?”

Wei Ting pondered for a moment and said, “The prescription should be true.

The Purple Lingzhi is indeed in Feng Xiaoran’s hands, but I don’t know if Saihua Tuo is sincerely helping us or if it’s just a trap set up by Feng Xiaoran.”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “As long as the recipe is not fake and the lingzhi is not fake, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”

It was over.

Could a mere Feng Xiaoran defeat the number one scholar of the Great Zhou and the number one strategist of the Western Jin?

Besides, he had a cheat in the form of Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, ‘What are your plans after we get both herbs?”

“Bring Second Brother home.”

Great Zhou, Wei family.

Wei Xiyue came to the courtyard to water the plant again.

She had recently moved into Madam Wei’s house and watered it four times a day, morning, noon, and night. She watered it again before going to bed.

However, the first thing she did when she opened her eyes the next day was to see if her father had grown out. Sometimes, when she woke up in the middle of the night, she would come over to take a look.

The courtyard was dark. Old Matriarch Wei and Nanny Li stood at the entrance of the courtyard and looked at the small figure. Old Madam Wei asked with heartache, “How long has she been squatting there?”

Madam Wei sighed. “It’s been almost an hour. She refuses to sleep.”

Old Matriarch Wei frowned. “Didn’t she only squat in the morning in the past? Why is she squatting at night now? Isn’t she afraid of freezing in the cold?”

Madam Wei said softly, “She said that the other saplings have germinated. Daddy must be growing soon.”

Old Matriarch Wei’s heart ached. She walked over with her walking stick and touched Xi Yue’s hands.

Aiyo, they were all frozen!

She bent down and coaxed softly, “Xiyue, be good. It’s too cold outside. Let’s go in first.”

Wei Xiyue moved to the side.

She wasn’t leaving.

She wanted to wait for her father..
