Chapter 96 Don’t understand, but respect
However, due to the large number of people, crowding was unavoidable, so he gently pulled her into his arms.
After watching the excitement, they left the crowd, but Su Fengjun did not let go of Zhongli Yueluo's hand.
Zhongli Yueluo felt that walking like this was inconvenient, so it would be more appropriate to reach out and hold his arm.
We arrived at the place where we ate hawthorn candy with Yan Ruoyu yesterday. There was a shop across the street selling marriage charms.
Zhongli Yueluo, arm in arm with Su Fengjun, quickly walked forward to the shop.
Looking at the shopkeeper, he said, "Give me two marriage amulets."
The shop owner thought they looked familiar, but couldn't quite put his finger on what was wrong with their ordinary attire.
Then he brought out a tray with many brands on it.
He smiled kindly and said, "Hang this marriage plaque on the flower bridge, and the two people will be in sync."
Zhongli Yueluo carefully selected items by hand.
As Su Fengjun watched her enthusiastically selecting marriage tokens, he couldn't help but feel a flutter in his heart.
But unsure how to express it, she simply whispered, "Has the princess made her choice?"
Zhongli Yueluo picked up the two plaques and looked them over, then turned to Su Fengjun and asked, "Which one looks better?"
He was thinking quite seriously, and pointed to a piece with a more delicate pattern: "This one."
Zhongli Yueluo took the piece he had chosen: "You should choose one too, and we can hang it on the bridge together."
He was taken aback by what he heard, hesitated for a moment, and then reached out and picked up a marriage token, his expression somewhat unnatural.
"That... that's good."
The boss handed them pens and asked them to write something.
The specially treated wooden plaque and ink will ensure that the words written on it will never fade.
Zhongli Yueluo wrote a few lines with a flourish of her brush.
"I wish to be of one heart with you, never to be separated. I hope you will no longer be dull and taciturn, and I also hope you will no longer suppress your own feelings."
She glanced at his wooden sign, which simply read "Peace and tranquility throughout the land."
This is a marriage amulet! Although I don't understand it, I respect it.
But on the back of the sign were two lines of small print: "May Yueluo live a life free from worry and in peace."
"All you two need to do is tie the two wooden plaques together and hang them on the bridge," the shopkeeper said with a smile.
Su Fengjun unusually took the marriage token from Zhongli Yueluo's hand, perhaps because he didn't want her to discover the small handwriting he had written.
"Princess, give it to me."
Su Fengjun stared intently at the words written on Zhongli Yueluo's marriage plaque.
My thumb rubbed against it repeatedly, my heart pounding.
She noticed he seemed engrossed in what he was looking at: "What's wrong?"
He tried to calm his racing heart, but he still couldn't hide the pounding in his chest.
Her voice trembled slightly: "Princess... I've heard that these marriage talismans are very effective. Do you really believe what you've written?"
She naturally took his hand, smiling brightly, and stood on tiptoe as she spoke.
"This is witnessed by the gods and demons above, and guaranteed by the mountains and rivers below. How can it be faked?"
Upon hearing this, the marriage plaque in his hand nearly fell to the ground.
Her ears turned red, and her eyes looked somewhat flustered, but she tried to remain calm and gripped the marriage talisman tightly.
He really wanted to ask himself if he and the young lord of the Zheng clan had also written this marriage plaque yesterday.
Could it be that the same words are written on it as well?
But he pursed his lips and didn't say anything. Zhongli Yueluo led him to the flower bridge that hadn't been lit yet, a hint of expectation still in her eyes.
She suddenly turned around and intertwined her fingers with his, holding the marriage plaque between her hands.
He stiffened, wanting to pull his hand back, but couldn't bear to, and in the end just blushed.
With a hint of helplessness and restraint in his voice, he said in a low voice, "Princess, please don't do this in public."
He blushed, lowered his head, and seemed unsure where to look.
She lowered her head slightly to meet his gaze: "Look at me, nobody around us is even looking at us. And look at them?"
Looking at the flower bridge below, all the couples are walking hand in hand, holding marriage plaques, their hearts filled with beautiful wishes.
Most people are doing the same things as them.
"What does this mean?" Her brows furrowed slightly, and the blush on her face faded a bit; it seemed like some kind of ritual.
"There's a sign over there, didn't you see it?" Zhongli Yueluo asked, tilting her head.
At this moment, Su Fengjun looked over there and saw a sign standing there.
The inscription reads, "When lovers hold hands, clasp their fingers together, hold the marriage plaque in their hands, and pray sincerely in their hearts, their wishes will be fulfilled."
It turns out it really was a prayer ritual; he was overthinking it.
He thought the princess was going to play a trick on him in front of everyone again.
He accepted it quickly, closing his eyes and silently praying, "May I stay with the princess forever, may the world be at peace, and may she be free from harm."
Seeing how serious he was, she didn't want to interrupt him. After he finished praying, he tried to let go of her hands.
Zhongli Yueluo pulled him closer to her, her lips lightly touching his cheek.
He was struck dumb, completely stunned. When he came to his senses, he quickly took a few steps back, but he couldn't free his hands.
He wanted to keep his distance from her, his face full of panic and helplessness: "Princess!"
Zhongli Yueluo narrowed her eyes into crescent shapes: "Don't worry, I checked, no one around saw it."
He tried to calm his racing heart, but his face still had a blush on it.
Her voice was a little hoarse: "Princess," she paused slightly, her eyes filled with complex emotions, "You... shouldn't have done this."
"Don't forget, you are my son-in-law. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to keep me so distant, hmm?"
Upon hearing this, his body trembled slightly. After a long silence, he finally sighed softly, his eyes filled with a hint of melancholy.
His voice was deep: "Princess, I didn't."
He's so stubborn, she won't let him off the hook, and even reaches out to ruffle his hair.
He instinctively leaned back, but she held onto him tightly and wouldn't let go.
At that moment, he suddenly pulled her to the side.
A sense of danger washed over them as two extremely thin silver needles grazed past them.
It turned out that Zi Sangqi simply couldn't stand it anymore.
Yesterday they acted like they didn't care whether the Su brothers lived or died, but today they're all lovey-dovey!
However, they agreed not to make a big move today, and only took action for a moment when they couldn't stand it anymore, which was quickly stopped by the Black Deer Guards.
He stared at them intently; there was no way Su Fengjun was alright.
He really wanted to go forward and test the waters, but this wasn't his territory!
Zhongli Yueluo knew that it was someone secretly observing them who made the move, but they withdrew their hand in just a moment, which she couldn't understand.
Su Fengjun's eyes were full of worry, but his tone was icy: "Princess, are you alright?"
She shook her head because he was holding her too tightly, and she gently pushed him away a little.
"Looks like someone can't stand how affectionate we are," she teased him.
He lowered his gaze, slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes flickered.
"So what?" Then she turned her head away, feeling as if she had said something presumptuous.
"That's more like it. You are my husband, so it's only natural that we're affectionate."
She tapped the tip of his nose with her finger and led him to the other side.
