Of course she would want to go!
Never mind if she did not know about it, but now that she did, she definitely would want to go.
According to what her father said, her mother was very likely to be overseas. No matter which country she was in, even if she was not in France, it did not matter.
It would be good as long as she could leave the country. Once she reached France, she would be free and could visit any country around the world.
Evidently, her father loved her mother deeply. All these years, he remained in their hometown and never went anywhere. For the family and to take care of her grandmother and grandfather, he almost had no sense of self.
Even when he was embroiled with a woman like Zhang Xiaohui, he could only compromise.
He was clearly a virtuous and talented scholar but had to live in the countryside and work in the fields every day, forcefully eroding his drive.
Gu Qingyao understood that her father's sacrifice was not only for her grandparents. It definitely was for her as well.
Only when the Gu family was stable and when the others who were working outside had a bright future ahead would she, the youngest girl who is doted on by the entire family, be able to live comfortably.
In the previous lifetime, she never knew who her mother was. After her father divorced Zhang Xiaohui, he remained alone, and Gu Qingyao did not know if there was any misunderstanding.
In the previous lifetime, her father and Zhang Xiaohui's official divorce happened during the era of freedom. Perhaps her mother returned during that time?
Perhaps her mother came to look for Father?
But she saw that Father was already married with kids. Perhaps she would misunderstand the situation and leave silently?
All of this was not impossible.
Since her maternal grandparents viewed her as a b.a.s.t.a.r.d child, when her father carried her away and her grandparents realized that she disappeared, it was possible that they might have simply told her mother that the child had died.
The current hospital conditions were very poor, and many newborns were unable to make it. Won't the conditions 18 years ago be nowhere better?
Thus, this time, she must go out and look for her and bring her mother back for the family to reunite.
Gu Yunshuang was astounded!
Gu Qingyao said, “Father, don't worry. I will definitely bring Mother back. No matter where Mother has gone, at least from the current situation, it's very likely that she went overseas. I will be free once I reach France and by then, I can fly around the world. I'll definitely be able to find Mother.
“Didn't you say that I look very much like my mother? It is not a large scope to look for Chinese people who look very similar to me. Perhaps I will be able to find her!”
Gu Qingyao held Gu Yunshen's hands and said seriously, “Father, I've grown up. The past few years have been extremely tough for you. Leave this matter about finding Mother to me! I will definitely bring her back.”
Gu Yunshen's eyes reddened. “All right! All right…”
But on second thought, Gu Yunshen hurriedly said, “You must pay attention when you find your mother. Your grandparents probably do not like you, but they seem to dote on your mother a lot. They probably feel that your mother was cheated back then and gave birth to you, so they took their anger out on you.
“But no matter what, you must be careful in the future. Although they're your grandparents, you still must be on your guard. You're out alone and don't have anyone to discuss your problems with. You must definitely be careful!”
Gu Qingyao nodded. “I got it, Father. Don't worry!”
After making the decision to go overseas, Gu Qingyao did not hesitate anymore and hurriedly began to pack her luggage.
The time that her teacher gave her was actually more than enough. After she reached the capital, she had to partic.i.p.ate in the training and then take an examination. It would be about March when she would really leave.
