After saying this, he was about to throw the two things away. Luo Lan snatched them from his hands and said angrily, somewhat displeased:
"Don't waste things. I just said they're not as good as the ones in the palace. I didn't say they're bad. Besides, this is the first time you've given me something. How can you just throw it away?"
After saying this, she stuffed the things into her sleeves and pointed to a place not far away and said:
"Let's go and see what's over there."
Leng Yu could only follow her wishes, took her hand again, and walked into the market.
"Lan'er, this is my first time in such a lively place. Is this what you usually call the atmosphere of fireworks?"
Luo Lan looked around at the dazzling array of goods on both sides of the street, pursed her lips, and nodded slowly.
"Yes! That's what life is like in the world. Buy the most ordinary things, hang out with the most ordinary people, laugh when you want to laugh, cry when you want to cry, say whatever you want, eat whatever you want, without worrying about being schemed against, or about saying something wrong and offending others."
Having said this, she chuckled to herself and said:
"Just like the people in the Imperial City, few of them dare to speak freely, and few dare to smile easily. Most of them have stern faces, like puppets, observing those rules, even their walking is restricted..."
Having said this, she suddenly turned to look at him. At this moment, his face was full of black lines, and a hint of intentional or unintentional bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Luo Lan quickly changed her words, "I didn't mean anything else, don't worry..."
"You're right."
He looked directly at her, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face.
"Life in the imperial family was indeed like this before. Every time I met my father, every word I wanted to say had to be screened by Nanny Sun before I could say it. Even after I grew up and was granted a residence, it was still like this."
At this point, his eyes dimmed a little, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he continued:
"On the contrary, I've felt much freer during these three years of being paralyzed in bed. Although my movements are not free, my mind is free. I no longer have to worry about others or the reputation of the royal family, haha!"
He smiled bitterly to himself, and that smile was filled with helplessness and bitterness.
At this moment, Luo Lan shook his hand back and smiled softly:
"Okay, don't think about those things. There's something exciting going on ahead. Let's go check it out!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she took his hand and ran towards the crowd.
Facing the wind, she was in front and he was behind. He let her delicate body pull him as they ran forward, weaving back and forth among the crowd.
He suddenly laughed, a smile from the heart, and his handsome face, as sharp as a knife, was even more captivating under this smile.
Days like this were really comfortable, and he suddenly wanted to continue like this.
After they arrived at the crowd, Leng Yu couldn't help but frown at the people who were gathered inside and outside. He shook his head and said to her:
"Let's not squeeze in. There are too many people."
At this time, a burst of cheers came from the crowd, and Luo Lan's interest was instantly aroused. Through the gaps in the crowd, she saw that someone in the crowd was playing with a little monkey.
This was the first time she had seen such a lively scene since she traveled through time. No matter what, she had to go and see it.
So, she looked at Leng Yu, shaking his arm, with questioning and pleading eyes.
"Husband, let me in and take a look! Just a quick look, I promise I won't waste any more time."
Looking at her twinkling watery eyes and pitiful face like a child, Leng Yu helplessly raised his hand and tapped her forehead, then instructed:
"Don't run around. I'll wait for you under the tree over there."
"good."
Without saying a word, she broke free from his hand and squeezed into the crowd.
Leng Yu brought Xiao Lingzi and Xiao Shuangzi to a tree not far away. Watching her squeezing in the crowd, he could only shake his head helplessly and smile bitterly.
When this girl is serious, she is like a tigress who keeps strangers away; when she is playful, she is like a cute little white rabbit.
Leng Yu didn't want to watch such a lively scene, but Luo Lan liked to watch it, so of course he had to accompany her. He came out this time just to accompany her and make her happy.
So, he stood under the tree and waited, while Xiao Lingzi and Xiao Shuangzi wandered around with nothing to do.
However, they waited for a long time and saw that the man who was playing with the monkey had started to pack up his stall, and the number of people watching was decreasing, but there was no sign of Luo Lan.
His voice suddenly became sharp, and he shouted loudly to Xiao Lingzi and Xiao Ningzi who were not far away:
"Quick, go find the lady."
He suddenly had a bad feeling: Lan'er was lost, lost right under his nose.
He quickly came to the monkey trainer, lifted his collar, and questioned him with gritted teeth,
"Where is the woman who was watching the fun here just now? Where is she?"
The monkey trainer was so frightened that he trembled and shook his head.
"No...I don't know. I...I didn't see...I didn't see any...any woman."
Seeing that the monkey trainer didn't seem like someone who could hide Luo Lan, Leng Yu threw him to the ground and searched around like crazy.
He lost Lan'er, did he really lose her?
Standing on this busy street, he looked around, but there was no familiar figure. He felt that his heart was as hopeless as ashes, as if he was bitten by thousands of ants in an instant, and the pain was unbearable as if he was being torn apart by someone's bare hands.
"Lan'er..."
There was a hint of hoarseness in his voice, but he could hear the words "husband..."
"Lan'er?"
