349 Xue’er Likes Me the Most
Madam Qi’s expression was resolute as she stubbornly said, “I don’t want to talk nicely. I just want my Xue’er. If you don’t go look for Xue’er, I’ll go look for her.”
As she spoke, Madam Qi abruptly stood up from the ground and rushed out toward the main gate.
Nanny Sheng and Gong Lingyu were both shocked and hurriedly went forward to stop her.
Fortunately, Nine, who had woken up early to chop firewood, came back. He stretched out his hand and stopped Madam Qi.
“Granny, what happened?” Nine asked when he saw Madam Qi in a hurry.
Madam Qi seemed to have grabbed onto a life-saving straw. She held onto Nine tightly and said, “My Xue’er has been taken away by bad people! I want to see her. Can you take me to see her?”
Nine frowned in confusion and looked at the other two people.
“The Old Madam had a nightmare,” Nanny Sheng explained.
Nine nodded. After he glanced at Madam Qi, he actually agreed. “Alright, but I’ll only bring you to see Miss Gu once. After you see her, you must come back with me. If you don’t agree with me, I won’t bring you.”
Madam Qi was overjoyed. Afraid that Nine would go back on his words, she nodded hard, “Okay, okay! I’ll listen to you.”
“Young Master Nine, are you really going?” When Gong Lingyu spoke, she carefully glanced at the room where the children were, afraid that the noise would wake them up.
Nine nodded and said with certainty, “I just want to send the gloves and masks over. Don’t worry, we won’t enter the Tie Family Village. We’ll only see Miss Gu outside the village and come back.”
“Sigh, Old Madam, you shouldn’t be so willful. Miss Gu will definitely be angry when she sees you go over.” Nanny Sheng shook her head, but she could not do anything about Madam Qi.
Madam Qi changed her worried look and said with a bright smile, “No, Xue’er likes me the most. She’ll only be happy when she sees me. She won’t be angry.”
Nanny Sheng and the others knew very well that Gu Qingxue wouldn’t really be angry, but she would be very worried.
“I’ll have to trouble you to help me take care of things. We’ll set off now,” Nine said.
“We should go quickly before Lil’ Han and the others wake up. Nanny Sheng, I’ll help you too.” As Gong Lingyu spoke, she quickly followed Nanny Sheng to pack up the things they needed.
Two hours later, Nine, wearing a mask, drove the carriage straight to Tie Family Village.
The Tie Family Village was quite a distance away from Qingyuan Town, but it was only two hours away from the Dafu Village.
After Nine approached the Tie Family Village, he asked a bailiff to pass on the message and waited outside the tie family village with Madam Qi.
Madam Qi had an expectant look on her face until she saw a familiar figure walking quickly toward them. She stood up happily.
“Xue’er, Xue’er!”
Gu Qingxue suddenly heard Madam Qi’s voice. For a moment, she could not believe what she had heard. She quickened her pace and ran over. She realized that the old woman standing beside Nine was actually her grandmother!
Gu Qingxue walked forward quickly and held Madam Qi’s arm. “Grandmother, why did you come back here?”
“Grandma dreamt that you were kidnapped by a bad person last night. This morning, she insisted on coming to see you. Coincidentally, I was going to deliver something to you, so I brought her along,” Nine explained, his gaze fixated on Gu Qingxue.
After not seeing her for a few days, she seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
Seeing that everyone had come, Gu Qingxue had no other choice.
She held Madam Qi’s hand and coaxed patiently, “Grandmother, don’t do such dangerous things in the future. I’m very powerful, and no one can kidnap me. Follow Nine back obediently. Wait for me for a few days, and I’ll go back and cook something delicious for you.”
