Gu Yundong did not know whether to laugh or cry. She simply carried her out. As they walked, she coaxed her softly, âHow can Eldest Sister not want Keke? Eldest Sister is bringing Mother to the doctor. Keke also knows that Mother is sick, right?â
The little girl buried her head in her arms, but she still nodded gently.
âThat doctor is very far away now. Your Eldest Sister has to bring Mother over quickly. This way, she can bring Mother back as soon as possible. At that time, Keke will be able to see Eldest Sister and Mother again.â
âAt that time, will Mother recover from her illness?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âItâs possible. That doctor is very powerful. If Eldest Sister finds him, Motherâs illness will be cured.â
The little girl still hugged her neck tightly, and her sobbing gradually became softer. After a long time, she said softly and firmly, âThen Eldest Sister, go. Iâll be good. Iâll wait at home. I-Iâll also take care of Older Brother and not make him cry.â
âYes, Keke is the best.â
The little girl lowered her head shyly and muttered softly, âI cried just now. It wasnât very good.â
Gu Yundong burst out laughing. She looked down at Gu Yunshu, who had been following behind her silently. âIf Eldest Sister leaves, you will be the biggest man in our family. You have to take good care of your sister and study well. If you have anything you donât understand, ask the teacher. If you feel uncomfortable, tell Aunt Ke in time. Donât take off your clothes when youâre hot. Youâll catch a cold, understand?â
Thatâs right. Gu Yundong had already thought it through. While she was away, she would ask Aunt Ke to help take care of Gu Yunke, who was staying at home. She thought that Aunt Ke must have had the intention to do that since she delivered the message personally at this time.
âYes.â The little guy hung his head low and was also in a low mood.
Eldest Sister was leaving, their mother was leaving, and their father was not around. Gu Yunshu felt that his mission was very important.
Seeing that the two children were unhappy, Gu Yundong could not help but secretly sigh.
After all, they had been together for a few months and had never been separated. This parting was also sudden, so it was normal for her to find it difficult to accept it.
Gu Yundong coaxed the two children as she explained in detail what they should do after she left.
Afraid that they wouldnât remember, she simply wrote it down. Anyway, Yunshu knew how to read.
In addition, there were many people at home. The two children would not be short of food and clothes. The conditions in the old Gu family were much more difficult than now.
Gu Yundong only came out after sending the two of them back to their rooms.
She went to the guest room to look for Aunt Ke. Before she could speak, the latter said, âDonât worry, Iâll stay at your house while youâre gone. I have no problem taking care of the two children. Besides, I didnât expect you to have servants at your house. They can help.â
Gu Yundong trusted Aunt Ke. She took out a banknote.
Aunt Ke frowned. âWhy? Is this considered my salary? Do you want to be my boss?â
She sounded very unhappy.
Gu Yundong shook her head. âOf course not. This is the cost of food. You have to eat and wear, right? Keep the rest on you for emergencies. I donât know when Iâll be back. When the weather warms up later, you still have to buy cloth to make clothes for Yunshu and the rest.â
Aunt Ke accepted it in satisfaction when she heard her tone.
Gu Yundong came out after exchanging a few words with her. She still had some things to tell the Tong family.
However, not long after she walked out of the guest room, she saw a figure standing in the courtyard.
Shao Qingyuanâs expression flickered under the night sky, looking a little cold..
