Chapter 508 - 508 Where Did the Little Girl Go?
508 Where Did the Little Girl Go?
Gu Nuo’er sat on a small stool. Her body was small and her face was delicate and cute.
She held the scallion pancake in her fair hands and ate it with her pink lips.
The more the woman looked at Gu Nuo’er, the more she liked her. She smiled and said, “My husband always says that it’s best to give birth to a daughter. Not only would a daughter be considerate and obedient, but she’ll also be her parents’ little cozy cotton-padded jacket!”
Gu Nuo’er looked at the woman’s abdomen with her black eyes and smiled sweetly. “Elder Brother Han Zheng will definitely get what he wishes for.”
The woman nodded and supported herself against the door frame, but she looked in the direction of the door and sighed.
“He’s been gone for so long and hasn’t even sent a letter back. Initially, I felt uneasy, but when I saw that you said that you were receiving his help, I guessed that he should be fine. I feel much more at ease now.”
She looked into the distance and wondered what her husband was busy with now.
“He’s probably really busy,” the woman said, gently touching her abdomen. “The child and I will wait for him to come back.”
Gu Nuo’er’s long eyelashes lowered, covering the regret in her watery eyes.
She had placed magic power on Han Zheng, but Song Quan was determined to kill him.
Gu Nuo’er could protect him once, but she couldn’t protect him a second time.
She could sense that Han Zheng was already dead.
He had risked his life just to let his pregnant wife live a better life.
Perhaps he was afraid that his wife would be worried, so Han Zheng didn’t tell her the truth.
Gu Nuo’er sighed quietly.
The Heavenly Dao grandpas had said that mortals’ lives were destined.
However, Han Zheng’s wife was really a good person.
When the woman saw that Gu Nuo’er was starting to be in a daze, she quickly wiped the tears of longing from the corners of her eyes and said with a smile, “Little girl, hold on. I know how to make sweet pancakes too. I’ll go make a pot of hot ones for you to try.”
After saying that, the woman hurriedly turned around and entered the house.
She had probably been alone for too long. When she saw people related to Han Zheng coming to visit, she became very enthusiastic.
Gu Nuo’er’s black and lively eyes were filled with pity for the world.
There was also a hint of regret on her porcelain face.
The woman busied herself in the kitchen for a while and wiped the sweat off her forehead. “Little girl, come and try… Eh? Where did the little girl go?”
The courtyard was empty. The half-closed door had also been closed.
Gu Nuo’er was nowhere to be seen.
Only the small stool she had sat on had the package she had brought with her when she came.
The woman went forward. “Why did she leave this behind?!”
She pulled open a corner and was shocked by the bright golden color in the package.
This seemingly inconspicuous small package was actually filled with gold!
There were more than a hundred taels in total.
The woman hurriedly hugged her bag and pushed open the door to chase after Gu Nuo’er. However, she searched along the alley but didn’t see her.
“This child… why did she leave so much money?” The woman was still surprised.
This was until a small letter fell out from the side of the package.
The woman picked it up and took a look. There were cute and childish words written on it—
“The pancakes were very delicious. I’ll leave the money to you. Take it that I bought them!”
It had been a long time since Han Zheng had sent money home. The money Gu Nuo’er had left behind could be said to have resolved the woman’s urgent need.
This sudden surprise left the woman at a loss.
She didn’t dare to spend the money recklessly and could only carefully put them away. In her heart, she secretly thanked this kind and generous girl.
The woman went home and closed the door.
What she didn’t know was that before Gu Nuo’er left, she formed a seal with her small hands and invited two door gods.
“Door god uncles, good people stay in this family. I’ll have to trouble you to watch over them in the future!”
The door gods wore dignified expressions and held Dharma artifacts, nodding solemnly.
