Moyang City has become more prosperous in the past few years than before. The streets are full of people, with various hawking sounds, and many people coming and going. It is very lively. A man and a woman walked out from somewhere, and the two of them were holding a child.
The child has a smile on his face.
The three of them were walking on the street, and they quickly attracted the attention of the people around them. The eyes of those women fell on Mu Zhixuan, either infatuated or amazed. It is rare to see such a handsome person in this world.
arrive.
He shifted his gaze and looked at Mo Yunling next to him. The scars across his face were so obvious. Then he looked at the child on the ground. Is this a family of three?
As a result, the faces of those women became angry. How could such an ugly woman match such a handsome man? This was really a weed stuck in the jade dew.
Mu Zhixuan's expression turned cold as if he was aware of the gazes of the people around him. Looking at those people, he held Murong Chen's hand tightly.
Murong Chen glanced at Mu Zhixuan, then at Mo Yunling, and then said with a smile: "Dad, Mom, I want to eat candied haws."
Hearing this title, Mo Yunling was immediately stunned, and then looked at Mu Zhixuan with apologetic expressions on his face. Why did this child talk like this today? When Mu Zhixuan heard this sentence, he only felt that his heart seemed to slow down.
In a flash, he glanced at Murong Chen, smiled knowingly, and then nodded towards Mo Yunling, the soft color in his eyes seemed to melt her.
Such tenderness and sweetness made the girls, young women and even aunts instantly petrified. They were really a family!
Mu Zhixuan walked to the vendor selling candied haws on a stick, took out his money and bought a bunch. He walked over and handed the candied haws to Murong Chen, "Don't you want to eat it?"
"Thank you, dad!" When he said the last word, Murong Chen smiled slyly at Mu Zhixuan.
Hearing this title again, Mo Yunling quickly apologized and said: "Zhixuan, this kid..."
Shaking his head slightly, Mu Zhixuan smiled calmly and said: "He is happy today, so let him be happy. I heard that the food in Qingmolou is good, and Chen'er is a little greedy. How about we go over for a walk and eat something?"
Smiling gratefully, Mo Yunling looked at this familiar street. Even though she had not been out many times when she was in Moyang City, everything here still gave her a familiar feeling.
"Mom, what are you looking at?" Murong Chen raised his head, looked at Mo Yunling, and asked softly.
After glancing at Murong Chen, Mo Yunling gently stroked Murong Chen's head, but smiled and said nothing.
"I'm afraid your mother is tired, Chen'er, let's go eat something delicious and take you to play later." Mu Zhixuan said quickly.
"Okay, okay, I know where the Qingmo Building is, and I'll lead the way." As he spoke, Murong Chen broke free from Mu Zhixuan's hand and ran forward.
Looking at the cheerful back in front of her, Mo Yunling smiled bitterly and whispered: "Zhixuan, am I wrong? Maybe it was a mistake to give birth to him in the first place."
"Yun Ling!" With a low voice, Mu Zhixuan held her hand tightly and said in a deep voice, "In the past few years, because of Chen'er's laughter and laughter, I feel that I am still alive, and Chen'er is like God.
Never say such things again about our gifts.”
Mo Yunling nodded, and the two of them walked forward, but saw Murong Chen talking to someone. When he saw that person, Mo Yunling was stunned. It was him!
"Hey, uncle, what a coincidence, I met you here today." Murong Chen said with a smile.
Feng Lang was also surprised to see Murong Chen. He squatted down and said softly: "The little guy came out alone again today. Could he be stealing other people's things this time and using me as a shield?"
.”
Hearing this, Murong Chen quickly shushed and whispered, "This is our secret." He unconsciously looked back at the person behind him.
Feng Lang felt funny in his heart. Following his gaze, he saw that there were only pedestrians on the street.
"Where are the parents?" Murong Chen whispered.
Father and mother? Feng Lang was startled and looked at Murong Chen. The child's face made him unconsciously feel familiar. If he saw his father and mother, he might be able to confirm one thing.
"How about I take you to find your parents?" Feng Lang said with a smile.
After taking a look at Feng Lang, Murong Chen couldn't help but murmur in his heart, is this man stupid? He was tricked by him last time, and this time he wants to accompany him to find his parents. Could he be plotting against him?
"It's okay, it's okay. I remembered that they seemed to have gone shopping. My mother's favorite thing is to eat sweet-scented osmanthus cake. My father dotes on his wife and treats my mother better than me. I have to go quickly.
I'm looking for them, thank you uncle." After saying that, Murong Chen ran away quickly.
Seeing that the child was afraid of him, Feng Lang looked gloomy and was about to follow him, but at this moment, a figure came over, looked at the person, and said, "Where is the third brother?"
Nangong Zhaoran said in a low voice: "The emperor said that he would handle official duties during the day and come out to watch the lanterns together at night."
Feng Lang smiled helplessly, he always does this.
Seeing Murong Chen coming over, Mo Yunling's face was very ugly. She looked around, pulled Murong Chen aside, and asked in a low voice: "How do you know that person?"
"Uh, mother, I..." Murong Chen lowered his head unconsciously, if his mother knew that he stole people's things...
"Say!" Mo Yunling shouted.
Next to him, Mu Zhixuan quickly stood in front of Murong Chen, raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, the child is ignorant, so don't be angry. What if he finds out? This time, I will never let anything happen to you."
"Dad is right!" Murong Chen looked at Mu Zhixuan and Mo Yunling and said with a smile.
After glaring at Murong Chen, Mo Yunling wanted to speak, but was stopped by Mu Zhixuan.
"Stop saying thank you. When will you and I stick to this? Let's find a place to eat first. I heard there will be a lantern festival tonight and watch the lanterns in the evening." Mu Zhixuan said.
"Okay!" Mo Yunling replied with a smile.
Murong Chen was overjoyed when he heard that Mo Yunling agreed.
The lights were on at night. She had not seen this lantern festival for many years. She still remembered that the last time she saw it was in Yundu. At that time, she would sneak out of the palace and dress up as a man. But it was early.
The past is hard to catch up with. The Huayun Palace of the past no longer exists, and even Yundu was completely destroyed in the fire.
There are vendors on both sides of the street, and there are all kinds of colorful lanterns everywhere.
"Mom, look, that lantern is so beautiful, it looks like a fish!" Murong Chen pointed at the fish-shaped lantern in front of her and clapped her hands.
Looking in the direction Murong Chen pointed, Mo Yunling smiled slightly and then said, "Do you want to buy it again?" As she said this, she looked helplessly at Mu Zhixuan next to her, who was carrying various items on his body.
Planting food for fun, I can no longer hold anything.
"If Chen'er likes it, why not buy it?" Mu Zhixuan said with a slight smile.
After hearing Mu Zhixuan's words, Murong Chen knew that he would definitely get the lantern he wanted, and he looked at Mo Yunling with a hopeful look.
Perhaps infected by today's atmosphere, Mo Yunling was in a good mood. She shook her head helplessly and said to Mu Zhixuan: "He is almost spoiled by you." Although she said this, she still left.
past.
After handing the lantern to Murong Chen, Mo Yunling looked around and felt like someone was staring at them. She said to Mu Zhixuan and Murong Chen: "There seem to be more and more people, Chen'er, I'll wait a minute."
Follow us closely and don't get separated."
Murong Chen nodded seriously, but Mu Zhixuan looked around suspiciously, then glanced at Mo Yunling, the two looked at each other and nodded.
"Have you heard? There are many prizes in tonight's lantern competition. I heard that the most difficult one is guessing the lantern riddles."
"Guessing lantern riddles is fun, but have you heard? There is a special program at the lantern festival today, which is rafting. I heard that if a man and a woman can find the legendary purple lotus, they can live forever."
"True or false."
…
Seeing the people walking by, Murong Chen suddenly became interested. He pulled Mo Yunling's lapel and said, "Mom, let's go find Zi He too, shall we?"
"Nonsense!" Mo Yunling shouted, her eyes full of reproach. How could she go looking for such a thing with Zhixuan? She glanced at Mu Zhixuan, but fortunately, he was looking away at the moment.
Murong Chen stopped talking immediately after being yelled at by Mo Yunling, but he would definitely find a way. He really hoped that Uncle Mu was his father. He glanced at Mu Zhixuan and showed a sweet smile.
Suddenly there was a surge of people, and Mo Yunling was startled, and was about to catch Murong Chen, but unexpectedly the crowd came over and rushed between her and Murong Chen, forcefully separating them.
"Chen'er!" Mo Yunling shouted loudly, but unfortunately the surrounding voices were too loud, completely drowning her voice.
Mo Yunling wanted to rush over, but there were too many people. As she stood there, she could feel her palms sweating. Mu Zhixuan came over beside her and said comfortingly: "We will go find them when the crowd has passed, don't worry.
"
I don't know how long it took, but the people finally dispersed. Mo Yunling hurriedly walked over, but Murong Chen was nowhere to be seen.
"Chen'er," Mo Yunling shouted in panic. There were people all around, but her Chen'er was not alone.
Later, Mu Zhixuan looked around and found that he was indeed nowhere to be found. Chen'er was smarter than ordinary people. Thinking of the way he winked at her just now, she was afraid...
"Chen'er just said he was going rafting. Let's go there and look for this kid..." Mu Zhixuan stopped at this point.
Mo Yunling remembered what Murong Chen said before and immediately said: "Okay." She unconsciously became worried. He had no idea how dangerous his current situation was. What she was most afraid of was that those people would see his face.
