Imperial Duke Zhan's family of three came out to send them off. Madam Qiao watched as Gu Qingxue's family of four got into the carriage. "Xue 'er, it's getting late. Why don't you let your big brother send you back?"
"It is because it's getting late that I don't want my big brother to send us off, otherwise the return journey would not be safe. Godmother, don't worry. With Qin Yun and the secret guards protecting us, we'll be able to return very quickly. You should all go back quickly."
"Grandfather, Grandmother, Goduncle, goodbye!" The three little ones also came over and waved at the three of them enthusiastically.
The family of three stood where they were, watching Gu Qingxue's carriage leave.
