Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lingbao sat on the stool beside Gu Qingxue. She shook her legs and said with a serious expression, “Those teachers are good, but I don’t think they’re as gentle as uncle. mother, can we ask uncle to come over and teach us?”
“Uncle?” Gu Qingxue was confused. “What uncle?”
Gu Lin explained, “It’s the uncle from the Imperial Duke Zhangs residence. Lil’ Han said that uncle is his teacher. When we were troubled by the princess before, it was uncle who came forward and helped us out.”
Dumby added, “But we only found out from Lil’ Han that he was our uncle after we separated from him. Besides, we also obediently listened to mother’s words and didn’t tell anyone about our relationship with grandfather and the others.”
Gu Qingxue had always kept a low profile and did not tell anyone about her relationship with the the imperial duke’s residence.
Gu Qingxue did not want to brag about this relationship to anyone. She entered the palace a few times, but she did not hear anyone talk about that man before.
She only knew that her adopted brother was a man with outstanding literary and martial talents, comparable to Rong Zhan. He was also the dream man of many young girls in Jing City.
It was also because this adopted brother of hers was too outstanding that the emperor and the crown prince both attached great importance to him. This caused him to be busy with affairs and rarely return to Imperial Duke Zhang’s residence.
This was also the reason why she had been to the Imperial Duke Zhang’s residence so many times, but she had not been able to meet him.
In the end, she did not expect that the three little ones would so coincidentally meet her adopted brother on their first visit to the palace.
“You followed Lil’ Han into the palace, so your uncle must have guessed your identity. I didn’t know about it before, but now that I know, I’ll definitely thank your uncle next time.” Gu Qingxue reminded her three little ones as she ate.
The three little ones were very obedient and nodded in agreement.
“Mother, when can we see uncle again:’ Uncle is very gentle. Lingbao likes him.” Lingbao thought of his uncle and felt very proud.
In the past, the mothers of the children in the village all had relatives, whether it was grandfathers, grandmothers, or uncles and aunts. Most of them were kind. When the family gathered together for a meal during the new year, the three little ones would be very envious.
Finally, they did not have to be envious of others. They had a grandfather, a grandmother, and an uncle. This year, they could also enjoy the joy of having a reunion dinner with the family!
“I’m sure we’ll see him during the new year.” As Gu Qingxue spoke, she used her chopsticks to pick up a piece of dessert and stuffed it into Lingbao’s mouth.
Lingbao nodded happily and ate the soft and fragrant cake in her mouth. Time flew by, and the sun set the next day.
Gu Qingxue, dressed in a long sea-blue dress, walked out of the Gu family’s gate and got into Gong Lingyu’s carriage.
In the carriage, Gong Lingyu, dressed in a light yellow dress, was sitting at a small table and waiting.
Gu Qingxue reached out to lift the curtain of the carriage. Just as she poked her head in, she heard Gong Lingyu’s sigh.
“Wow, Sister Gu, aren’t you dressed too well today?” Gong Lingyu looked at Gu Qingxue, who was wearing a long blue dress, and almost thought that she was looking at a fairy from the heavens. She could not take her eyes off her, and she kept staring at her.
“You’re so sweet-tongued) always saying such nice things to make me happy.” Gu Qingxue smiled as she looked at Gong Lingyu..
