Chapter 699: The Three Tigers Are Here

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

On this trip to the Western Jin, they went out of the west city gate. There was a ferry 20 miles south, where they would board the s.h.i.+p.

Su Xiaoxiao had seen the map in advance. The Western Jin Capital was about a

month’s drive from the capital of the Great Zhou. This was even when they had the best carriage. If it were ordinary people, they would travel longer.

“No wonder so many people spent more than half a year traveling. It’s really not an exaggeration…”

Su Xiaoxiao lowered the curtain and fell silent.

Wei Ting glanced at her. She was resting with her eyes closed, but she was clearly not asleep.

Wei Ting asked, “What are you thinking about?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Children.”

Wei Ting’s gaze landed on her soft abdomen. Without changing his expression, he said, “Then I’ll work harder.”

Su Xiaoxiao opened her eyes and looked at him in disbelief. “I’m talking about the children at home — Dahu, Erhu, Xiaohu! What were you thinking?”

Wei Ting was speechless. “…Isn’t that because you didn’t make it clear?”

Su Xiaoxiao was not in the mood to bicker with him today. She hugged a pillow in her arms and leaned against the wall of the car. She said lazily, “I’ve never been separated from them for so long.”

The corners of Wei Ting’s mouth twitched. They had yet to leave the city, but she was already thinking about the children.

“Not long. It’s three months on the road and two to three months for treatment. It’s only half a year!”

Wei Ting said exaggeratedly.

Actually, it would not take so long. Three months was enough, but he liked to see her angry.

Su Xiaoxiao was furious. “Is the journey going to take that long?”

Wei Ting raised his eyebrows. “It’s not like you’ve never traveled out. Didn’t you always go to the prefecture city to do business when we were living the countryside?”

Su Xiaoxiao curled her lips. “How many days was that?”

Wei Ting continued, “It’s far enough to come to the capital, right? Then a month—”

Wei Ting stopped mid-sentence.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “I didn’t bring you along when I came to the capital for a

month.”

At the mention of this, Wei Ting was furious. What did this girl take him for? She took advantage of him in the countryside, but she didn’t bring him to the capital and only took the three brats away.

He had never seen such a heartless woman!

The past was unbearable to look back on. Wei Ting knocked on the table with his slender fingers. “Figure out a fact. I’m the one going on a housecall with you now. The three of them have stayed at home.”

He had finally turned the tables.

How dare a few brats occupy his little fat peac.o.c.k? Dream on!

He was their father after all.

“Aiya—”

Just as they were about to leave the city gate, Xing’er exclaimed from the carriage behind.

Xing’er was Su Xiaoxiao’s maidservant.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t have the habit of bringing a maidservant. It was Matriarch

Wei who was worried about her grandson and insisted that Su Xiaoxiao bring someone to serve them.

Wei Ting asked Fu Su to stop the carriage, and the carriage behind stopped.

Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao alighted from the carriage and came to Xing’er’s carriage.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “What happened?”

Xing’er lifted the curtain and jumped down as if she had seen a ghost in broad daylight. She pointed at the carriage and said with a pale face, “Table, table, table, table… Are the snacks on the table gone?”

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Make yourself clear.”

Xing’er said fearfully, “Just… I… I took out a box of snacks and planned to bring them over for Miss and Young Master, but when I turned around, a few of the snacks were missing. I didn’t mind… I thought I had counted wrongly, so I took a few more out of the food box. When I looked again… a few more were missing… Then… that plate seemed to be full… I put a few more…”

Xing’er was still young and was good at being a maidservant. However, when she encountered such a strange thing, she was frightened out of her wits.

Wei Ting lifted the curtain and looked at the empty carriage.

The furnis.h.i.+ngs in the carriage were simple. There was a wide carriage stool covered with mattresses, and a small table under the window was fixed to the carriage wall and covered with silk cloth.

In addition, there were a few food boxes, bags, and a box.

“Come out,” he said in a low voice.

The carriage was as quiet.

The coachman, Ah Fu, went in and opened the box on the ground.

There were only clothes in the box and nothing else.

Xing’er was so frightened that she hid behind Su Xiaoxiao and couldn’t help but look in.

Ah Fu lifted the silk cloth of the carriage stool again. The area under the carriage stool was empty, and there was nothing there.

Finally, he lifted the tablecloth again. Again, nothing.

Ah Fu scratched his head. “Could it be that it’s really haunted in broad daylight?”

“Ah!” Xing’er grabbed her young lady’s sleeve in fear.

Wei Ting stared coldly at the carriage. “I’ll count to three. If you don’t come out, I won’t want this carriage anymore. We’ll change it to another carriage. One, two…”

Before he could finish, three round glutinous rice b.a.l.l.s rolled out from under the car stool.

Wei Ting’s face darkened.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Xing’er muttered, “Young, Young Master Dahu, Young Master Erhu, Young

Master Xiaohu, why are you guys here?”

Ah Fu said, “That’s not right. I just checked under the car bench.”

Wei Ting snorted. “They pulled another cloth and hid behind it.”

The three glutinous rice b.a.l.l.s looked at their fierce father with an innocent and afraid expression as they slowly moved outside.

“Hug.”

They said to Ah Fu.

Fu carried the three young masters down.

The three of them ran towards Su Xiaoxiao.

Little brats, they were itching for a beating. They actually dared to slip into the carriage… Wei Ting clenched his fists. “Fu Su, send them back!”

Su Xiaoxiao sighed and raised her hand to stop. “There’s no need. I’ll send them off. They’ll feel better if I send them off.”

She patted the heads of the three little fellows. “Get in the carriage.”

The three of them came to the carriage. The carriage stool was not put down, so their short legs could not climb down.

“Xing’er, carry them up.”

“Yes, my lady.”

Xing’er carried the three of them into the carriage. She went up and fastened the safety buckle for the three of them.

Su Xiaoxiao sat in the outer car, grabbed the reins, and whipped him.

“Giddyup!”

The carriage left!

Fu Su hurriedly said, “Young Madam, you’re going the wrong way. That’s not the way back to the residence!”

“Giddyup!”

The carriage dashed faster and faster and left the city.

Fu Su looked at the lonely young master and was enlightened. He couldn’t help but look at his young master sympathetically. “Young Master… have you… been abandoned by Young Madam again?

Wei Ting was furious.

“Su! Xiao! Xiao!”

After more than half a month of traveling, Su Xiaoxiao and the others arrived at the border town of the west city. The jade door was ahead.

It was late autumn, and the weather was getting cold. It was cold morning and night.

Su Xiaoxiao changed the three children into layered autumn clothes in the carriage.

“Do you… want to add a thicker s.h.i.+rt?” She smiled at a certain someone sitting opposite her.

In the end, Wei Ting still caught up to her.

It was not strange. After all, she had run away under Wei Ting’s nose. She did not plan to shake him off completely.

Wei Ting looked at her indifferently. “Run. Why aren’t you running anymore?”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said obsequiously, “How can I bear to leave alone with such a beautiful husband?”

It was mainly because the road guide was on this guy. If she did not wait for him, they would not be able to leave the Jade Gate Pa.s.s!

Wei Ting mocked, “Heh!”

The group left Jade Gate Pa.s.s and stepped onto the territory of Western Jin.

There was no waterway in Western Jin. Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao brought the three children and Xing’er to change carriages at the courier station. After another 20 days of long journey, they finally arrived at the West Capital..
