Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The youth’s mother said, “Everyone came because Miss Su ate our dumplings.”
The youth excitedly added, “l didn’t expect that lady to be Miss Su. I’ve heard about how beautiful and kind-hearted she is. Now that I’ve met her, I feel excited.’
He looked at his father and asked, “How do you feel, Father?”
The youth’s father answered, “l feel good. I would get chest pains if I worked too much in the past. I was a little flustered this morning, but since Miss Su treated me with acupuncture this afternoon, I no longer felt pain.”
“That’s great.”
The youth’s mother wiped her tears and said, “We must visit Su Teng Village to thank Miss Su when we have the chance.’
“That’s for sure.’
After leaving the dumpling shop, Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an continued heading toward Su Teng Village. They did not know what else had happened at the shop.
The young couple rode their horses at breakneck speed and reached the next city by night. The main street was livelier in the evening, perhaps because New Year was approaching.
Many shops on the main street were open, with lanterns hung at the entrances. Customers happily entered the shops to eat. Many people were on the street, so Su Binglan and her husband got off their horses to let the people cross the streets.
As the young couple walked around, they saw a street resembling a market.
Lanterns hung around the market, and many people set up their stalls there.
People were shopping as voices of bargaining rose and fell. Su Binglan smiled when she saw the lively scene.
Luo Jin’an knew his wife was happy. He asked, “Do you like seeing people like this?”
“Yeah, I like this atmosphere most.” Su Binglan could not explain why she liked such a lively scene. She seemed to feel a sense of relief as she looked at everyone’s relaxed and happy expressions. It made her feel a part of them. Luo Jin’an looked at her and gently said, “Let’s walk around and take a look.” “Do you want to walk around, too?”
“Yeah,” Luo Jin’an said, “Let’s look around and buy you something you like to eat.”
Su Binglan’s eyes lit up because she had already considered walking around to check things out.
The young couple tied their horses to the side and prepared to walk around. All horses were registered in Dingzhou, so no one would dare steal other people’s horses.
Furthermore, Falling Snow and Purple Lightning were intelligent horses, so they would stay put even if Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an did not tie them up.
Soon after, Luo Jin’an held his wife’s hand, and the two went to the market.
Su Binglan was still in a daze, but the warmth from her husband’s hand assured her everything was real. She lowered her head to look at her husband’s fingers intertwined with hers and felt his palm’s warmth passing through her hands to her heart.
She raised her head to look at Luo Jin’an and thought he was like a gorgeous and magnificent painting. The red lanterns hanging around the market shone on his body, giving him a mesmerizing glow.
Luo Jin’an’s aura and demeanor differed now that he was in good health. He used to give off a sickly and weak feeling, but now his body was full of a terrifying and powerful aura.
He was as beautiful as art and had a natural charm. When Su Binglan stood close to him, she smelt a clear yet dark fragrance, which was seductive.
Luo Jin’an seemed to sense his wife’s gaze and lowered his head to look at her. His eyes were dreamy, and whenever he focused on her, his eyes would reveal a mixed hint of charm and gentleness. It made Su Binglan’s heart sway and become intoxicated.
Su Binglan’s eyes were clear and pretty, too. Still, she was in a daze as she looked at her husband.
Luo Jin’an elegantly smiled as he looked at his wife’s expression. It was as if the spring breeze blew onto Su Binglan’s face. A gust of cold wind blew over, causing her hair to flutter and block her vision.
Luo Jin’an stopped and gently tidied his wife’s hair. His eyes were focused and gentle, and when Su Binglan met his gaze, she could not help but sink into him.
Although the two had grown familiar, Su Binglan!s heart skipped a beat and began to throb.
After tidying his wife’s hair, Luo Jin’an gently rubbed her head and asked,
“What do you want to eat? I can buy it for you.”
Su Binglan returned to her senses and looked around. Many stalls sold food, but none sold the delicacies she had developed. People there sold food they had made spontaneously.
Su Binglan saw someone selling candied hawthorn and remembered the unused hawthorns she had kept in her pocket dimension.
‘l could use them to make candied hawthorns.’
As the young couple talked, Su Binglan saw popcorn, and her eyes lit up. She said, “l want to eat that.”
“All right, let’s get some.” Luo Jin’an bought a big bag of popcorn and let his wife eat while strolling.
Su Binglan took a few bites and felt it tasted pretty good, so she grabbed a few and handed them to her husband.
Luo Jin’an did not have the habit of eating on the road, but when he saw his wife’s expectant gaze, he lowered his head slightly and ate the popcorn she held out. “Eat some.”
“All right.”
Luo Jin’an bought more snacks for his wife as they walked, and he held them for her. Su Binglan would ask her husband to share the food with her whenever she took a bite. Luo Jin!an could only oblige and dote on her.
It had been a while since Su Binglan felt so relaxed. She did not want to think about responsibilities or anything else for now. Her mind was empty, and she treated herself like a young girl.
Perhaps she felt inexplicably happy because she was out with her husband.
The young couple could occasionally relax and treat their lives as a game. However, they needed to find a place to rest after eating.
Luo Jin’an initially wanted to stay at an inn with his wife, but Su Binglan felt they should stay in the village next door because she wanted to give accommodation money to the villagers.
She also wanted to learn more about the rural villages’ situation to develop Dingzhou. She became a calm and rational young lady regarding work and career. She wholly differed from the playful girl from before.
Luo Jin’an knew his wife’s thoughts and supported her no matter what. “All right, we’ll go to the village and stay the night.”
Su Binglan said, “l just asked around, and the nearest village is Shanxia
Village. About twenty families live there and make a living by planting crops. Someone will occasionally bring eggs to the surrounding towns to sell.”
“All right, let’s go.”
Every household had already gone to bed when the young couple arrived. Everyone went to bed when it got dark, mainly to save on candles and oil lamps.
When Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an entered the village, they felt tranquility. Only the dogs in the village barked whenever they heard sounds..
