Chapter 1085: Uncle Gus whereabouts (2/2)

Gu Yundong was stunned, yes, the portrait he painted was what his uncle used to look like in Lao Gu's house.

On the way of escaping, people must lose a lot of weight, but she didn't know that he was still bruised.

It must be that the road to escape from the famine was not peaceful, and he suffered a lot.

Gu Yundong put the portrait aside, and asked anxiously, "When did you see him, auntie? Do you know where he is now?"

"I saw it a few days before the city gate opened." Mother Su said, "At that time, a niece of mine came to the door, and Gu Xiaoxi came with my niece, Xiaoni."

"Niece? My uncle is with your niece?"

Mother Su nodded, "I have a distant cousin. Although they are separated by several floors, they used to work together when they were young, and the relationship was not bad. It's just that she later married from our side to the Yongning Mansion, and she didn't get married after that. I walked around. This time the Yongning Mansion was in famine, and my cousin disappeared on the way. Only my cousin-in-law and daughter Xiaoni were left. Later, my cousin-in-law was gone. I heard that it was to save your uncle. Xiaoni entrusted it to your uncle, and told them to come to Xuanhe Mansion and find my cousin's family."

"I'm afraid they have suffered a lot along the way. When they arrived at Xuanhe Mansion, they were penniless and starved for several days. Fortunately, there were porridges at the gate of the city, and they survived. It was only when the new emperor ascended the throne. After the gate of the palace opened, Xiao Ni and your uncle entered the gate and found my house."

"It should be the address my cousin gave to Xiao Ni. When I saw them, your uncle's face was already bruised and swollen, and I couldn't see his appearance. Later, they rested at my house for a long time and said that it happened on the way to escape the famine. It was at that time that I knew your name. Your uncle said he was looking for you, and his elder brother entrusted you to him, but he lost you. I have been inquiring along the way, and I have no idea. Well, if I have heard your name, I will send a letter to tell him."

At that time, Uncle Gu was also very desperate. In fact, when he said those words, Mother Su could tell that he had given up hope.
