The Prince Regent Is Powerful, And My Mommy Is Expecting Again! Chapter 17

Chapter 17

We’ll Trust You One More Time

Under Gu Qingxue’s pa.s.sionate and expectant gaze, Gu Lin’s little ears began to blush. He nodded lightly, “Then, then we’ll trust you one more time.”

Hearing this, Gu Qingxue finally heaved a sigh of relief.

After all, Gu Lin was still a child of four or five years old. He was not old enough to hold a grudge.

She still had a lot of time to make up for the lack of motherly love in the future.

“Do you need my help?” Gu Lin looked away awkwardly and asked Gu Qingxue in a m.u.f.fled voice.

“No need. You can stay with your younger siblings. Wait for me to call you guys for dinner.” After saying that, Gu Qingxue buried herself in her work seriously again.

Gu Lin stood where he was and watched Gu Qingxue work for a while before returning to his room.

After another two hours, a fragrant smell wafted out from Gu Qingxue’s kitchen.

It was the fragrance of stewed pork ribs with winter melon and mushroom. Along with the wind, it drifted far away, causing the children next door to cry out in hunger.

“I want to eat meat! I want to eat meat!”

The cries of the children next door traveled all the way to Gu Qingxue’s small courtyard.

The three children who were eating in the kitchen heard it.

“Is that w.a.n.g Tudou crying?” Lingbao asked Gu Lin and Dumby as she raised his head, her mouth covered in oil.

Dumby was too busy eating to answer Lingbao’s question.

Gu Lin smiled and nodded, “Yes.”

“Just let him cry! He’s always bullying me and pulling my braids!” Lingbao raised her chin proudly. “When I have the chance next time, I’ll chew on the ribs in front of him! I’ll make his tears and saliva flow together!”

Gu Qingxue could not help but laugh when she saw Lingbao’s mischievous look.

It was the first time she realized that children could actually be this cute.

“Lil’ Lin, mother will make a trip to town tomorrow. You have to take care of your younger siblings at home,” Gu Qingxue suddenly thought of this matter and said to Gu Lin.

When Dumby heard the word ‘town’, he finally raised his head and looked at Gu Qingxue. “Mother, are you really going to town?”

He had heard that the town was very interesting and that there were even candied haws and osmanthus cakes for sale.

He had seen the young master of the village landlord’s family eat candied haws and osmanthus cakes, and they looked very delicious.

Unfortunately, he, his elder brother, and his younger sister had never eaten them before.

Gu Lin and Dumby were also surprised.

The town was too far away for them.

It was a place they dreamed of going to.

“Yes, we don’t have any rice noodles at home. I have to go buy some.” Gu Qingxue saw that the three little brats yearned for the town. She paused for a moment. “Do the three of you want to go together?”

The three little brats widened their eyes in unison.

“Can we?! Mother, are you really willing to bring us along?” Lingbao raised his voice in excitement.

“If the three of you want to go, I’ll bring you along,” Gu Qingxue said, “But if you want to go to the town, you have to get up very early. Lil’ Lin definitely won’t have any problems. Dumby, Lingbao, can you get up?”

Gu Lin would get up very early every day to study. Dumby and Lingbao did not show any interest in studying at the moment. They wanted to sleep in every day.

When Dumbo and Lingbao heard that, they nodded their little heads in unison and said in unison, “I can!”

That was the place they dreamed of!

Even if they had to stay up all night tonight, they would still be willing to do it!
