When I was going down the stairs, I happened to meet Luo Fengtang head-on.

"Qing'er, where are you going?" he asked in surprise.

"Where else can I go? Of course I'm looking for you to come back for dinner."

Yang Ruoqing replied, looking at him again with sweat dripping from his forehead as he ran, but his hands were empty and he looked a little downcast.

"What? The candied haws-lub seller ran away?" she asked again.

"Well, I looked around and couldn't find anything." Luo Fengtang was a little discouraged.

"Haha, I probably saw you yelling in a hurry, and I was scared away by you."

Seeing her smirking eyes, Luo Fengtang was stunned for a moment and then smiled.

With this smile, the previous depression disappeared. He held her hand and said, "You should still meet a candied haws seller on the way back. Then I will buy it for you to eat."

"Okay, okay, let's go, let's eat first."

The two returned to the private room and explained the situation to Tuoba Xian, who was naturally more understanding and tolerant.

After eating and drinking, the three of them discussed it and planned to leave for Huguang County.

This trip is mainly about sightseeing and relaxing. Don’t be in a hurry and just arrive in Huguang County before dark.

Stay overnight in Huguang County and head to Zuojiazhuang tomorrow full of energy.

The three of them came outside the backyard. The carriages and horses were naturally taken care of by the restaurant's waiters, and the shadow guards naturally arranged the meals.

However, the man guarding the carriage was carrying a pile of firewood on his shoulders, which was filled with candied haws.

Yang Ruoqing's eyes lit up, she tilted her head and looked at Luo Fengtang and smiled.

You are such a promising kid, you brought the pile of goods and lied to us that you didn’t buy anything?

Oscar gold!

Luo Fengtang looked sideways at her, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, his eyes filled with confusion.

He shrugged slightly and said, "It's not me."

Yang Ruoqing came over and held his arm, looking up at him with a smile.

He didn't say anything, but his eyes clearly showed disbelief.

Luo Fengtang was a little anxious, so he went up and asked the guy carrying the stack: "What's going on? Who gave it to you?"

Only then did Shiji see Yang Ruoqing and the others coming, and he hurriedly ran over to answer the question, carrying the pile of goods.

"Go back to your boss's house and talk to the general. Someone came over and handed it over to the younger one. He said it belonged to the old lady and the young madam. He asked the younger one to carry it and wait."

Luo Fengtang looked at Yang Ruoqing, "It's definitely not me."

Yang Ruoqing blinked and then asked the waiter: "Did that person say who he is?"

The guy shook his head.

"Do you still remember that person's appearance?" Luo Fengtang also asked.

The waiter said: "He is dressed in black, he is in his early twenties, and he has a sword on his waist."

Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing exchanged glances, wondering whose bodyguard they should be.

"...By the way, I remembered. There was a sign hanging on the man's waist. On the sign was a big tiger with its teeth and claws snarling. It looked a bit scary."

Big tiger?

Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing were both thinking about which force would be carving that pattern, but they even knew that she and Tuoba Xian wanted to eat candied haws.

It can be seen that their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were standing at the window watching the scenery before, and the other party was controlling it from the dark.

Yang Ruoqing suddenly remembered the feeling of being followed on the road before, and couldn't help but gently tugged on Luo Fengtang's sleeves. Just as she was about to speak, Tuoba Xian, who had been silent beside her, suddenly moved.

She came to the pile of firewood filled with candied haws, raised her head and glanced at the strings of red candied haws inch by inch.

The transparent sugar coating was as dazzling as glass in the afternoon sunlight. Tuoba Xian raised her wrist and picked a bunch of candied haws in her hand, took a bite, held it in her mouth and narrowed her eyes slightly.

She was clearly tasting it quietly, her expression was as usual.

However, Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing, who were watching all this, could not remain calm.

Tuoba Xian's true identity is the eldest princess, not to mention that in her early years in the Daliao Palace, her food, clothing, housing and transportation had to go through strict inspections before they could reach her hands and mouth.

Even the seclusion in the rural life in Changping Village these years could not erase the elegance in her bones.

Especially for eating, it is impossible to pick it off and eat it in public.

How greedy is this for candied haws on a stick?

Or how much do you trust the person who delivers the candied haws behind your back?

After all, Luo Fengtang was worried and came to Tuoba Xian's side.

Looking at the bunch of candied haws that she took a bite from, she frowned and said, "Mom, the origin of these candied haws is unknown, you'd better not eat it..."

Tuoba Xian turned her head to look at him, and Luo Fengtang realized at this moment that his mother's eyes were slightly red, and there seemed to be tears in her eyes.

But my mother looked at him and slowly smiled.

That smile came from the joy in my heart, not like a forced smile to appease my son.

"Son, don't worry, the person who gave you the candied haws of sugar will not harm me."

Such a determined tone made Luo Fengtang frown a little tighter.

But Yang Ruoqing's mind was racing and she thought of something.

She came over and grabbed Luo Fengtang's arm and said, "Maybe it's from an old friend who knows my mother well. Tang Yazi, since mother said so, just follow her and let's continue on our way."

The pile full of candied haws was given to one of the guards to carry. Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing helped Tuoba Xian get into the carriage.

Yang Ruoqing knew that Luo Fengtang must have a lot of questions in his mind, so she ran to ride with him.

"What? Are you still thinking about candied haws on a stick?"

She raised her head and looked up from below, past the sharp curve of her chin and into the dark and deep eyes.

Luo Fengtang's silent gaze fell on her.

He said in a deep voice without hesitation: "That old friend is probably my father."

Yang Ruoqing raised her eyebrows, "Except for my father-in-law, no one in this world can make my mother lose her temper."

Crying and laughing, and even eating candied haws in public...

"The second wave of people who followed me earlier were probably also my father-in-law's people."

Luo Fengtang was a little irritated when he heard this.

"Hiding one's head and showing one's tail is not like a man!" he said.

Yang Ruoqing patted his arm and signaled him not to say that.

"Although it's not good to hide one's head and show one's tail, but in these years, he has never had a woman by his side, so he has left his heart to your mother alone."

Luo Fengtang snorted coldly, "Decades of life are too short. If you care, you have to accompany me. It hurts to hold it in your hand."

"Hiding in the dark like this and popping up from time to time is not called love, it is called harassment!"

Yang Ruoqing looked up at him and smiled: "But your mother is so happy to be harassed."

Luo Fengtang was suddenly speechless.

Indeed, my mother cried and laughed today, but her whole person suddenly became alive.

She is not like the hermit who spends all her time shutting herself up in a small Buddhist hall, chanting sutras and worshiping the Buddha, as if her joys, anger, sorrows, loves, and desires have nothing to do with her.

"My father doesn't show up, but he sends people to follow him. What on earth does he want to do?"

Luo Fengtang lowered his eyes and gritted his teeth.
