In the two days that he came to Rongcheng, Cheng Dongdong could not be said to have fun. But on the day when Qixi really came, she didn't go out with Ning Hu again, only said that there were too many people, and she kept staying in the inn room. Ning Hu didn't say much about this......

The festival is coming, and the city is unprecedentedly lively, and the pedestrians on the street are constantly crowded, and they are almost unable to find a place to stay. Cheng Dongdong leaned on the window, looking at the crowd on the street, but his interest was not very high.

Cheng Dongdong couldn't tell how he felt at the moment, he was a little nervous, a little dazed, and as if there was nothing, everything was flat...... In short, how happy I didn't see.

She just felt that she should do it, not to mention how strong the emotional factor was pushing.

Since the morning today, Cheng Dongdong has been sitting by this window, watching the morning glow fill the sky, the sun rising, and watching the sun sink in the west little by little. She spent the morning thinking about the word "family", and then spent another afternoon emptying herself...... It's still like I didn't think about anything.

But I have to say that her life is really superior now, and she always has such useless leisure.

"The crown princess."

Guan Qi entered the house at some point, carrying a pot of freshly brewed tea.

Cheng Dongdong heard the sound, came back to his senses, and looked at her: "Will you follow me?" ”

Guanqi put the tray on the table, and asked instead of answering: "Will the crown princess leave?" ”

A little unhappy look appeared on Cheng Dongdong's face: "Shall I leave?" ”

"In that case...... Guan Qi raised his head and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Do I need to follow?" ”

Cheng Dongdong understood, hesitated for a moment, and then said softly: "Thank you." ”

"The crown princess has tormented the slaves." Guan Qi leaned over and saluted, didn't say anything more, and left the room directly.

Cheng Dongdong watched the chess go out, and then turned his gaze to the table, only to see that under the base of the teapot in the tray, there was a note pressed, and there was faint black ink through, as if something was written.

Looking at the note, Cheng Dongdong's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and people couldn't help but get nervous.

……

As night falls, the real feast of Banyan City has finally arrived. The city is brightly lit, not as good as day, but more hazy and magnificent than daylight, which makes people forget to return.

Cheng Dongdong walked out of the inn alone, perhaps because Ning Hu had gone out earlier, there were not many people left in the inn, Cheng Dongdong said that he wanted to go out to shop by himself, and he was not hindered by anything, at most he was persuaded by someone to say a word or two, but the man saw Cheng Dongdong's resolute attitude and did not dare to say more.

Cheng Dongdong "struggled to survive" in the gap between the crowds, because he had something hidden in his heart, he didn't have the heart to pay attention to the surrounding scenery, and his eyes kept sweeping the faces of pedestrians on the street, as if he was looking for something.

Although there are many pedestrians on the street, everyone is not moving fast because it is too crowded. Cheng Dongdong looked at it at a glance, but he could barely see it.

But this person is crowded, it's really not a good feeling, plus he has to find someone, Cheng Dongdong only feels that he is dying.

What is she trying to do to find this guilt for herself?

Just as Cheng Dongdong was thinking about this question that hit the soul, her whole person suddenly froze, and her eyes looked fixedly at a few figures not far ahead.

It was a middle-aged couple, with a child under the age of ten, who looked at it from a distance, very harmonious.

Although it was only the back, at the first glance of them, Cheng Dongdong was almost confirmed, plus they kept looking around, reflecting the side face into Cheng Dongdong's eyes, Cheng Dongdong immediately confirmed.

Before coming, Guanqi had said something to her, which made her very confused.

“…… The crown princess, go to Rongcheng here, or you can see the second elder...... This is also one of the thank-you gifts......"

As a hijacked impostor, Fang Xiang didn't need to do these things at all, he must have many ways to make himself obedient, but there was no reason why he would choose this. At least judging from Cheng Dongdong's time in Xiangfu, she didn't think Fang Xiang was such a benevolent and talkative lord.

But all this seems to have changed because of her own marriage into the East Palace, is it because she is the nominal crown princess, so Fang Xiang will be more tolerant of her?

Well...... Don't understand.

So Cheng Dongdong put aside this problem early in the morning, and now that she sees her parents, she is naturally even more unlikely to think about this.

She just looked at the backs of her family, and subconsciously wanted to catch up, but suddenly stopped, let pedestrians pass by her, and watched the three people not far away slowly disappear into the crowd.

Looking at it, Cheng Dongdong suddenly turned around with difficulty, changed the direction of fewer people, walked for a long time, and finally came to the corner of a house by the river, the location here is a little off, there are no people, and there are few people around, only occasionally a few people pass by, but most of them will soon go to a lively place, which is very suitable for her to look at the river lights on the river in a daze.

Cheng Dongdong thought about the picture he saw on the street just now, and he felt a little lost in his heart, as if he was still a little disappointed.

She didn't know what Fang Xiang told her parents, but they looked at it and seemed to be doing well, thinking that in their opinion, she should not be in a state of disappearance.

But thinking so, seeing their happy appearance, Cheng Dongdong was still a little sad in his heart.

But compared to this, Cheng Dongdong still cares more about the disappointment in his heart. This disappointment is not directed at Cheng Dongdong's family, but at herself.

Previously, Cheng Dongdong always thought of her family, and she also thought that she had learned to miss them for them. But when she really saw her family, she didn't feel how happy she was, just like usual, she saw it when she saw it, what's the big deal?

But if that's the case, aren't all my previous thoughts hypocritical?

Thinking about it carefully, Cheng Dongdong felt that he really didn't have any special feelings and understandings about family affection. Father and mother work long hours in other people's homes, so Cheng Dongdong was brought up by his grandparents, but Cheng Dongdong didn't get along with his grandparents when he was a child, they were always very fierce, so Cheng Dongdong didn't like to stay at home at all when he was young.

Especially after having a younger brother, the contrast becomes more and more obvious. So much so that most of Cheng Dongdong's memories of his childhood are playing with Fa Xiao.

It wasn't until the last two years that Cheng Dongdong grew older, and her younger brother grew up to the age where people scolded dogs, and the situation at home slowly changed, and Cheng Dongdong faintly had some different understandings.
