On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the flower market is lit up like day, and the voices of people are boiling.

Master Lu was in a good mood, and took his concubine to see the lanterns, holding his youngest son who was less than a year old in his arms. Colorful lanterns, reflecting the bright market. The skirts of various colors, or hurried or unhurried, form a long flowing river of colors in the market, and the shops selling lanterns and snacks crowd next to each other to occupy the side of the street, and extend to the small bridge at the end of the street. Seeing his youngest son's fleshy face even whiter and tenderer in the package of the lamp, his light pink mouth slightly open, and his big eyes looking around curiously, Master Lu couldn't help but feel pity and teased him with his fingers. The concubine on the side saw Master Lu smiling happily, and she was also smiling like a flower, adding a bit of charm.

Suddenly, the hem of the placket tightened, as if he had tripped over something, Master Lu frowned, and pulled the placket vigorously with one hand.

"He'er? What are you doing here? With the pulling of Master Lu's clothes, coupled with too much force, Lu He was brought out and rolled out, she sat up with all her strength and patted the dust on her body. Master Lu looked at his daughter who came out of nowhere, he was furious, and instantly lost his pleasant face.

"Father, I ...... I also want to see the lanterns. Looking at Master Lu's iron face, Lu He knew that things were not good, she cowardly spit out a few words, and her eyes only looked at the ground. Lu He was never afraid of heaven and earth when he was a child, just because his mother was the most favored by his father, but a year ago, his mother died of illness. Now, on the fifteenth night of the first lunar month, Lu He remembered that his father promised him to buy a lantern for himself last year, so he wanted to remind him......

"Father, have you forgotten? Last year, you promised me that you would accompany me to see the lanterns and buy them for me. I think my father is an adult, and he can't speak. Lu He rubbed her hands uneasily, waiting for an answer, which she mustered up a lot of courage to ask.

"Master, Miss just wants to buy a lantern, so the master will follow her." couldn't stand the coquettish begging of his concubine, Master Lu was discouraged, and his tone was much calmer.

"Oh? Since there is such a thing, then, Han Sheng, you accompany the young lady to buy lanterns, and send her home after buying. The old man casually gave the order, and continued to walk deeper into the street, and after a while, he disappeared into the crowd.

Lu He stared at the direction of his father's departure, stunned, only to hear Han Sheng calling her, urging urgently, and then lowered his hand and followed behind Han Sheng.

"You say, my father doesn't remember buying me lanterns, doesn't he like me anymore? Has he forgotten my mother too? Lu He asked,

"This, the villain doesn't know. It's just that if the young lady doesn't buy the lanterns as soon as possible and go home, she will inevitably have a meal. ”

Lu He didn't ask any more questions, her young heart had obviously suffered blows and setbacks, which were not from others, but from her father who once loved her the most. She bought a lamp at random and handed it to Han Sheng.

Following his memories, he remembered his mother, the person who was the best to him, just like that. She left her favorite things to her. Her hanging hand suddenly touched her waist as if she remembered something, and it was empty, and there, the most precious thing was gone! Where did it go? Where did it go? She groped all over her body in a panic, still empty, she looked for her at a loss, muttering to herself as she looked, "No, no, where did you go?" ”

Like a headless fly, she scurried around the streets, through crowds of people, and through unfamiliar alleys.

When Han Sheng turned around, where was the figure of the young lady. After searching for a few laps but not finding it, although Han Sheng knew that he was in trouble, he still went back to Lu Mansion with a hard head, how to say it, this is also his own fault. The villain knows that he is wrong, and the villain deserves death! Han Sheng knelt in the middle of the courtyard, his head firmly on the ground, and he didn't dare to move, only howling and begging for mercy.

"You know, He'er is my only daughter." Master Lu picked up the teacup, the smoke was filled, and the mist shrouded his face, he couldn't tell whether he was happy or sad, he took a sip of tea gently, and continued, "Today, if she can't come back, you can go with her." The tone was calm like an outsider, and God knows how uncomfortable he endured.

The people sent out to find it had no news for a long time, and Han Sheng trembled with fright, but he didn't forget to grit his teeth and say yes.

"Dog minion, you can't even look at a child." The concubine sat up and comforted the master. "Don't worry, Master, Miss Jiren has her own natural appearance, and she will definitely be fine."

"Alright, be quiet!" Master Lu sat down, flustered in his heart, and his palms were sweating, no matter what, it was her daughter, even if it was ...... She, Lu He, must not have an accident.

The crowd in the market has long since dispersed, and after the bustle has passed, only deserted people remain. Only the tavern has not yet closed, there are not drunkards spitting drunken words, the lanterns are still on, and the shop is closed. Lu He hid in the grass under the willow tree by the bridge and cried sadly, pouring out all the grievances and sadness today.

"Hey!" Someone slapped her from behind Lu He, she trembled with fright, but quickly calmed down, it was a hairy boy about ten years old, with messy hair and clothes dressed very casually. A pair of eyes are like a lake that is not full of water, a little melancholy but also a little gentle.

"Hey, call you! Look at what I'm doing! In the middle of the night, what are you crying about! The boy looked at her with curiosity on his face.

Well, this person is so rude. Lu He thought to himself, but in the middle of the night, it was really rare to find someone to talk to, so he couldn't care about it. "I've lost my stuff." She wiped her tears and looked at the river, where the moonlight was pouring down from the sky.

"It's a very important thing to cry like this when you lose something!"

"That was the only thing my mother left me, and I always wore it around my waist. Today, I lost it and was reprimanded by my father. ”

"Your mother?" The boy also looked at the sparkling lake, and remembered the warm time in his memory, when a middle-aged woman, his mother, gently kissed his forehead. "Then I'll help you find it, okay?"

"I've looked for it, but no!" Lu He said,

But when the boy asked her what it was, she blurted out the word flute. Lu He's heart suddenly had some hope and warmth. "Let's look for it again, let's do it together."

"Okay, get up!" The boy stretched out his hand and pulled Lu He up from the ground, "Follow me!" ”

Lu He was pulled, a little more secure, empty and cold street, because of these hands, Lu He felt a mysterious power, the two children pulled each other like this, in the market, looking around for something that was left behind.

"Miss, Miss, I've finally found you!" A group of family members rushed over, panting, and pulled Lu He to prepare to go home, regardless of Lu He's resistance. "My flute..."

"Boy, you should go back early!" The family looked at the boy.

The boy replied disdainfully, "Oh" and looked at the direction where Lu He left: "Don't worry, I will definitely help you find it."

At this time, it was late at night, but Master Lu was not asleep, and his forehead was also worried about the slightest beads of sweat, loved, loved, hated now, how could he hate, in the study, he was holding a brush and drawing messily on the paper, and the drawings were all the same woman, writing and writing, and they were all the same name, Bai Zhi, after all, I still can't forget, I can't forget, it's a catastrophe!

"Master, master, Miss has been found! Miss has returned! ”

Master Lu lost his pen and rushed out of the study, and when the concubine heard the news, she ran to the study and was anxious to tell the master, but she only saw calligraphy and paintings on white paper and ink. Bai Zhi, looking at these words, her heart seems to have been stabbed a few times, and you always remember her in your heart! No matter what she does! You still love her. She gritted her teeth and dug her nails into her flesh. He turned around and went back to his bedroom.

"You! You still know to come back! Master Lu looked at Lu He, his face similar to Zhi'er, angry and unbearable.

"Father." Lu He's knees weakened and he fell to the ground, "I know it's wrong." Due to all kinds of grievances and his father's yelling, Lu He couldn't help crying again.

This cry, Master Lu's heart also hurt. He instructed the maid to send the young lady back.

"You can go back too!" He looked at Han Sheng, who was kneeling. "I'm tired today."
