Chapter 1145: Come and Meet Uncle
Gu Xiaoxi had been to the Xuanhe Prefecture once, but Chang Yaya had never been there.
Looking at the tall city gate, the anxiety in her heart reached an unprecedented peak.
Upon seeing this, Gu Xiaoxi hurriedly reached out to shake his hand and whispered, “It’s alright. My eldest sister and second brother are very good people. They will like you.”
Chang Yaya nodded, but she still could not control her nervousness.
Gu Xiaoxi quickly diverted her attention. He looked at the city wall and said, “If only I had stayed in the Xuanhe Prefecture for a few more days when I escaped. I might have met Yundong. Then, I wouldn’t have to waste two years. It’s such a pity.”
However, on second thought, that was not right. Wouldn’t he miss Chang Yaya too?
Gu Xiaoxi quickly looked at her. The latter was puzzled. “What’s wrong?”
Gu Yundong shook her head speechlessly and turned to look out of the car window. He said to Shao Qingyuan on the shaft, “Why are there so many people queuing up to enter the city today?”
Shao Qingyuan said, “I’ll go ask.”
He jumped off the carriage and walked forward. Not long after, he returned and said to her with a smile, “The people from the Nie residence are back. There are a few carriages and some goods in front of them. They’re all queuing up, so the line is slow.”
Gu Yundong was delighted. “So Nie Shuang and Aunt Ke are back too?”
They had gone to the capital and been there for a few months. Previously, they said that it was because of Nie Cong. Now that they were back, the problem must have been resolved.
“I think so.” Shao Qingyuan nodded. “Do you want to go and greet them?”
Gu Yundong looked up at the long line and then turned back to look at Youngest Uncle Gu. She said, “Another day. They just came back today. I’m afraid they’re very tired. It’s better to bring Youngest Uncle home first.”
“Okay.”
Shao Qingyuan got into the shaft again and slowly moved forward with the team.
When they entered the city, the sky was already a little dark.
Shao Qingyuan sped up and drove straight to the small courtyard.
Gu Xiaoxi wasn’t familiar with the prefectural city, but he could tell that it had changed a lot from the last time he came. It had only been two years, but it felt much more prosperous.
Yundong said that she had a shop in Xuanhe Prefecture.
How powerful was she to open a shop in the prefectural city?
He had been looking for the shop called Gu’s along the way, but unfortunately, he couldn’t see it.
The carriage only gradually slowed down when it entered the “school district”. Unexpectedly, when it was about to reach the entrance of the alley, Shao Qingyuan suddenly stopped.
Gu Yundong had just lifted the curtain to look outside when she saw a few familiar children playing at the entrance of the alley.
She was about to greet her when Gu Yunke saw her. The girl immediately rushed over like a cannonball and shouted happily, “Eldest Sister, Eldest Sister, you’re back?”
Hearing the crisp voice, Gu Xiaoxi hurriedly lifted the curtain and saw that lively figure running in front of her.
Gu Xiaoxi found the shape of the girl quite familiar. Shao Qingyuan carried her into the carriage.
The little girl immediately crawled in and threw herself into Gu Yundong’s arms.
“Eldest Sister, Eldest Sister, you’re finally back. Father and Eldest Aunt are waiting for you. In order not to make them too sad, I dragged Second Brother and Cousin to the alley to play. This way, I can see you the moment you come home. Am I very smart?”
She puffed out her chest and looked like she wanted to be praised.
Gu Yundong laughed uncontrollably and nodded vigorously. “Yes, Keke is the smartest. Come, meet Uncle.”
