The two of them worked together and quickly took down the big box containing the star lanterns.

"First of all, if I'm not mistaken, there are 520 stars in this box, right? Is it that I love you? The old butler asked.

I saw that Lu Muqing's eyes were soft, and he responded softly, "Hmm." ”

Then, without waiting for the old housekeeper to speak again, Lu Muqing said to himself: "You must be curious to know who these star lights are for, and how did they come from?" Back then, logistics and information were not as developed as they are now, and it was not easy to buy something you liked, speaking of which, even I don't remember how to collect all 520 pieces, probably stupidly all over the entire imperial capital. ”

"Actually, you can ask the old man or the old lady to buy it for you."

"If I didn't find it myself, what would it mean to her? Moreover, if even this little thing alarms her parents, how can I become strong and support her for the sky? ”

Looking at Lu Muqing like this, the old housekeeper thought that he was hallucinating.

He watched Lu Muqing grow up, and the Lu Muqing he knew was cold by nature since he was very young, and his personality was extremely bland, and he never saw a trace of joy, anger, sorrow and joy on his face, just like the seven emotions and six desires of no human being, so cold that he seemed to not eat a little fireworks in the world.

But recently, since Lu Muqing got married, he can often see Lu Muqing laughing.

What's even more exaggerated is that today, he actually saw a different tenderness in Lu Muqing's eyes, and he couldn't help but feel deep in love.

If it weren't for the deep-rooted love, how could this heartfelt tenderness be revealed?

"Sir, are these star lanterns for my wife?"

Although he already had an answer in his heart, the old housekeeper couldn't help but ask.

Lu Muqing replied: "Yes." ”

"Didn't send it out?"

Lu Muqing hooked her lips and smiled, "I sent it out, at that time, she saw so many stars and lights lit up at the same time, she was almost crazy with joy, she hung it in her yard for a long, long time, and she was reluctant to take it down and clean it when it was dirty, saying that it was a clumsy maid, and she was afraid that it would be washed badly, so she said that she would not let people dismantle anything." Later, she couldn't stand it anymore, so she asked me to help her remove it and wash it, and explained it to the left and right, and explained it no less than a hundred times, saying that it must not be broken. ”

"That's why you're bringing the star lantern back?"

"Hmm."

"Later, why didn't you return the star lantern to your wife?"

"Later, ......" Lu Muqing's expression paused slightly, as if he remembered something sad, and after a long while, he spoke again and said, "Later, she didn't want it." ”

Including him, she didn't want it either.

Later, she didn't want it.

Such a few simple words, Lu Muqing seemed to have used all the strength of his life to reluctantly say it.

It can be seen how heavy these words are for him.

He took a deep breath, frowned on his eyebrows, and then exhaled a long breath, inhaling and exhaling, but his eyes were unconsciously red, and then, he exhaled deeply several times before he completely pressed back the red that came out of his eye sockets.

"Mr. ......"

Lu Muqing glanced at the old butler leisurely, "I'm sorry, I seem to have lost my temper." ”

"It doesn't matter, it's better to say some things than to hold them in your heart, don't worry, I won't tell anyone anything you say today, and in the future, if you want to find someone to talk to, I'm willing to be a quiet listener."

Lu Muqing smiled slightly, "Thank you, Uncle Chen, it's just that in the future, I'm afraid I won't need listeners anymore, because I plan to tell her all these things one by one." ”
