Chapter 182: Ge’er has no rejection
Chapter 182
"........"
After listening to Lady Qian's words, Luo Ge remained silent for a long time.
Not knowing what to say, she just felt like a victim of circumstances, which was undeniable.
After pondering for a moment, she frowned and looked at Lady Qian, "So, if I make hot pot now, with century eggs and such, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Seeing Luo Ge frown, Lady Qian's heart skipped a beat, but upon hearing her words, she couldn't help but smile.
"It's alright, that shouldn't be a problem. Your brother has seen similar foods in foreign lands."
"It's just that they were in very remote places and haven't spread to this area yet. Dried fruits, fruit wine, and boiled foods are all available."
Of course, she had tasted those things, but they couldn't compare to what Luo Ge made.
Her daughter was simply the best.
During this time at the Gu family, they had learned quite a bit about Luo Ge and what she had been doing.
Luo Shiyan hadn't inherited her personality, nor his father's talents.
He had a carefree nature and had been traveling abroad for years, searching for news about Luo Ge.
When they heard about foods similar to modern cuisine in foreign lands, they thought they had found her.
But each time, it only led to disappointment.
Hearing this, Luo Ge nodded. She wasn't the type to be overly ambitious.
Even if they only developed these businesses within the country, it would be enough to ensure several generations lived without worrying about food and clothing.
As long as it didn't cause any problems, it was fine.
But when she heard Lady Qian mention "your brother," she remained silent.
Understanding the reason and knowing they had never given up searching for her was one thing.
Adapting to it was another matter entirely.
While she didn't reject it, she didn't know how to face these suddenly acquired family members.
Being alone for over twenty years, then suddenly arriving in a different world, only to be told that you originally belonged here and had a whole family of relatives—
Anyone facing such a situation would need time to adjust.
When Lady Qian said those words, she was observing Luo Ge's expression. Seeing no sign of rejection, she was overjoyed.
How could she pressure her now?
Being able to have such an open conversation with Luo Ge today and reveal everything was already very satisfying for her.
"Take your time, we can wait. There's no rush," she quickly added, her eyes brimming with unconcealed joy.
Hearing this, Luo Ge pressed her lips together and nodded.
Inside, Luo Ge and the others had been talking for so long without any sound coming out, that those waiting outside, including Gu Jinchen, were growing restless.
The main purpose was to accompany Luo Ge for a walk, but now that the main character hadn't emerged, Gu Jinchen naturally didn't want to leave alone.
So he waited at the entrance of the courtyard, as did the Luo family members.
Understanding what the mother and daughter inside might be discussing, everyone outside was craning their necks, trying to hear something.
But after a long while without any sound, they naturally became anxious.
"Creeak"
Fortunately, at that moment, the courtyard door finally opened.
Seeing the group of people outside, Luo Ge paused for a moment. Gu Jinchen, upon seeing her appear, quickly approached.
Luo Juan and the others also looked over eagerly.
Glancing at Gu Jinchen and then at the Luo family members, Luo Ge pressed her lips together and stepped towards the exit.
"Let's go."
"Alright." Hearing this, Gu Jinchen immediately followed, while the Luo family members lagged behind.
Seeing Luo Ge's behavior, Luo Juan and the others were stunned for a moment, then turned to Lady Qian, asking in low voices.
"My lady, Ge'er, she..."
Hearing Luo Juan's question, Lady Qian's tear-filled eyes smiled as she nodded, "Ge'er doesn't reject us."
Upon hearing this, the Luo family members all lit up with joy, and Luo Shiyan even jumped up.
"As long as she doesn't reject us, it's fine. We can stay by Nuo Nuo's side now!"
After so many years apart. 𝑓𝓻ℯ𝑒𝑤𝘦𝑏𝑛ℴ𝓋ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝓸𝓂
They never dared to hope that Luo Ge would immediately accept them.
Just having the chance was enough.
This alone made them very content.
"Does this mean I can also be hugged by Auntie like Big Brother Yun Mu and the others, and my younger brothers and sisters?" Little Zhen Heng blinked his eyes, asking his mother excitedly.
He really liked his aunt. She was so good to Yun Mu and the others, and she would tell them stories.
He wanted that too.
Ling Yun smiled and tapped his nose, "There will be a chance, but you must behave well and not bother your aunt."
Luo Ge had just finished her postpartum confinement, after all. They couldn't let this mischievous boy disturb her.
Luo Shiyan, standing nearby, nodded in agreement, "That's right, you need to behave. No causing trouble."
Otherwise, if the naughty boy annoyed her, what if their sister didn't like him?
Around the corner, seeing them like this, Luo Ge unconsciously smiled.
Seeing this, Gu Jinchen also broke into a smile.
No matter what choice Luo Ge made, he would support her. As long as she was happy, he was content.
