In the evening, Princess Consort and the others had not returned, and only sent a letter for them.
"How is it?" Gu Jinchen asked, handing Luo Ge a peeled lychee.
Upon hearing this, Luo Ge put down the letter in her hand.
"The Princess Consort said they unexpectedly had matters to attend to and left the town. The Wet Nurse she mentioned earlier should be able to arrive tomorrow, and Doctor Ming will stay here until after I give birth before leaving."
At the end of the letter, they left their contact information, telling them to seek out that person if they had any issues to contact them.
Apart from this, the envelope also contained many words of advice, mostly telling her to take care of herself.
From the meticulous and thoughtful language, she could see that the Princess Consort truly regarded her as her own sister.
Although she did not know what merits she had to receive such treatment from someone as esteemed as the Princess Consort, she admitted it was indeed very heartwarming.
Upon hearing this, Gu Jinchen nodded, took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands, and pinched her cheeks.
"Don't be unhappy, you'll see them again in the future," Gu Jinchen said softly, noticing her dejected expression.
"Mm."
"Little uncle, little auntie."
"Little auntie, little uncle."
Just as the two of them finished speaking, two listless little fellows came back from outside carrying their small book bags.
Listening to this, and seeing the two little ones with their reddened noses and teary eyes, Luo Ge felt helpless in her heart.
She bent down and patted their heads: "It's alright, you'll be able to see them again in the future. If they don't come back, when we grow up, we can go find them ourselves."
"In any case, we will definitely meet again. And for now, isn't Yi Chen and the others still here?"
"Instead of spending time being sad, shouldn't we cherish the time we still have left to spend with them?"
Upon hearing Luo Ge's words, the two little ones froze for a moment, wiped their tears, and stared at her with wide eyes.
"That's right."
For now, Yi Chen was still here, so they should cherish the present.
But...
"Can we really go find them in the future?"
Hearing the two little ones' words, Luo Ge nodded seriously.
"Of course."
If they truly wanted to meet, distance would not be an issue.
Hearing Luo Ge's affirmative answer, the two little ones finally smiled.
Watching this scene from the side, Gu Jinchen's mouth was full of smiles.
