323 When Will Mother Come Back?
However, the four children did not seem to be in high spirits. They held their chins and looked depressed. Anyone who looked at them could guess that they were not happy.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from behind the four children, Miao Yin’s anxious voice sounded, “Young Masters, Young Miss, are you waiting here again? Yesterday, the nanny told us that the weather was too cold, so we didn’t allow you to go out so that you wouldn’t catch a cold. Why didn’t you listen?”
“Sister Miao Yin, we want to wait for our mother to come back.” Lingbao turned her head away and her chubby little face turned red from the cold. She continued to say dejectedly, “But we haven’t been able to wait for mother. When will mother come back?”
“And my father, will they come back tonight?” Rong Han asked Miao Yin with anticipation in her eyes.
Miao Yin looked at the pitiful looks of the four cubs and felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife.
If it was possible, Miao Yin really did not want to see the Cubs so disappointed.
But she had no other choice. Lady Gu and the Royal Highness had all gone to the tie family village. That was the source of the plague and it was extremely dangerous. The young lord and the others definitely could not go to such a dangerous place.
“Young Masters, don’t be anxious. The Royal Highness and the others will return after the plague is resolved.” Miao Yin saw that the four cubs were still not in high spirits. As if she had thought of something, she quickly changed the topic, “Oh right, although you can’t see Lady Gu, you can help her. “Lady Gu asked the princess to send back some raw materials for making masks. Next, we need people to make a large number of masks every day. If you’re interested, you can help too!”
Miao Yin’s original intention was not to order the four children to do the work, but if the four cubs could use this method to ease the longing in their hearts, wouldn’t that kill two birds with one stone?
Gu Lin’s interest was immediately piqued, “Is it that if we help make masks, we’ll be able to help mother, and mother will be able to come back even faster?”
Miao Yin nodded and continued to encourage the four cubs, “As long as you all each make a hundred masks, Lady Gu should be able to come back.”
Dumby was the first to stand up. He raised his hand excitedly and said loudly, “I want to help. I want to make a hundred masks at once, and then our mother can come back as soon as possible!”
“Sister Miao Yin, quickly take us back to make masks!” As Rong Han spoke, she had already run all the way to Miao Yin with her short legs. She stretched out her hand and urged her.
Seeing the four children urging her, Miao Yin heaved a sigh of relief. She quickly took the Cubs back home.
Time flew by. At sunset that night, Gu Qingxue and Rong Zhan’s carriage finally stopped at the foot of Tie Jin Mountain.
The trees on Tie Jin Mountain were luxuriant. The setting sun poured down, covering the entire forest and the tie family village at the foot of the mountain.
The news of the plague had spread far and wide. The Tie Family Village was completely sealed off, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Even the people in the surrounding villages regarded this place as an ominous place, and no one was willing to get close to it.
Gu Qingxue carried the medicine box on her back. After Rong Zhan got off the carriage first, she got out of the carriage and saw a group of people gathering at the entrance of the Tie Family Village from a distance.
Even though they were still some distance away from the entrance of the village, Gu Qingxue could still hear the noise coming from not far away.
