The Yin family had been patient and did not act up, so naturally, no one stopped Gu Qingxue from going to the imperial consort’s tomb.

At noon, a dark green carriage was parked in front of the Gu residence’s gate. It was filled with the supplies needed for the journey these few days. At that moment, the coachman was checking if the four horses pulling the carriage were tied up.

After Qin Yun and a few guards of the Gu residence checked that they had brought all the things they needed, she looked at Gu Qingxue, who was standing at the door. “Eldest Miss, everything has been packed. We can leave at any time.”

Gu Qingxue first nodded, then turned around and squatted in front of the three little cubs. She looked at them with a worried expression and said, “Lil’ Lin, Dumby, Lingbao, mother will be out for a few days. Mother promises to be back before the new year. Be good and wait at home for mother to come back and spend the new year with you.

Lingbao held onto Gu Qingxue’s hand tightly, unwilling to let go. She pouted and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, then said pitifully, “Mother, do you have to go? Can you not go? I don’t want mother to leave.”

Dumby also quickly reached out to hold Gu Qingxue’s other hand. She lowered her head, and the little daze on her head shook. “Me too, I don’t want mother to leave. Mother, why don’t you take us with you? I promise I’ll be obedient on the way.”

Gu Lin quickly grabbed his brother and sister with one hand each. He looked serious as he lectured them, “You two must be obedient and not cause trouble for mother. It’s not convenient for mother to take us to the place she’s going to this time.”

When Dumby and Lingbao heard this, they pouted pitifully, then continued to look at Gu Qingxue with pitiful eyes.

Gu Qingxue’s heart instantly softened. She wanted nothing more than to hug her three little ones in her arms and stay behind to keep them company.

However, she could not. This opportunity was hard to come by, and she had to seize it.

After reluctantly hugging and kissing the three little cubs, Gu Qingxue said with heartache, “Mother promises that she’ll be back immediately after she’s done. Can the three of you be good children at home? When mother returns, I’ll spend more time with you.”

Gu Lin’s eyes were also filled with tears. Like his younger brother and sister, he could not bear to part with Gu Qingxue.

However, as the eldest brother, if he were to cry with his younger brother and sister, it would definitely bring more trouble to his mother.

Thus, Gu Lin held back his reluctance and raised his hand to wave at Gu

Qingxue. “Mother, we promise we’ll be obedient. Go and come back quickly.”

Dumby and Lingbao both looked at Gu Lin. Seeing how strong their big brother was, they didn’t dare to show their reluctance, so they held back their reluctance to bid Gu Qingxue farewell.

“Xue ‘er, where are you going? It’s getting cold, isn’t it better to stay at home?” Madam Qi’s heart ached as she pulled Gu Qingxue away. She did not want her to leave either.

“Grandmother, I will go and find the medicine that can cure you. When I bring the medicine back for you to take, you will not have nightmares in the future.” Gu Qingxue grabbed Madam Qi’s hands and smiled.

Madam Qi nodded, not fully understanding. Then, she worriedly reminded him, “Then you have to be careful. Don’t tire yourself out.”

Gu Qingxue nodded repeatedly, then turned to look at Nanny Sheng. “I’ll have to trouble you to take care of everything in the family..”
