Seeing Luofengtang hang the prayer talisman back onto the wish tree, Yang Ruqing quickly tiptoed up and grabbed his hand, stopping him.

"Don't hang onto it, just throw it away," she said with a frown.

Luo Fengtang glanced at her, and said very calmly: "This is Zichuan's wish..."

Yang Ruqing said, "Even if this whole tree is covered in his prayer charms, his wishes are impossible to fulfill."

Because she was never going to fulfill him.

Besides, I think it's not a wish at all, but an obsession of his," she went on.

“The more he can’t get something, the more he wants it. He knows it’s wrong but can’t let go. He goes against himself and makes others difficult. There’s really no need for such a prayer charm to be hung on this wish tree!” she said again.

Luo Fengtang's lips curved into a gentle smile. "Of course I know you can't fulfill his wish, but we shouldn't deprive him of the chance to dream."

After saying all that, he turned around and carefully hung Mu Zi Chuan's wish paper back up.

On the way back, Luobo, eager for novelty, rode on Lufengtang's horse and walked side by side with Xiaoan, looking at the scenery along the way.

Luofeng Tang just happened to enter the carriage and sat with Yang Ruqing.

Yang Ruqing turned her head to look out the car window, saying nothing.

Luo Fengtang saw that she was down in the dumps. He reached out and took her hand.

She pulled her hand back and placed it on her own leg, not letting him hold it.

He chuckled softly and clasped her hand again in his.

She turned her head and gave him a slightly resentful look, "My sister's in a bad mood right now, don't bother me."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Luo Fengtang's eyes lit up, looking at the pouting 'young lady' in front of him with interest.

"Still bothered about what happened before?" he asked.

>

Yang Ruqing didn't speak. Her silence implied she agreed with his guess.

“Are you angry with me? Or with Kozaki?” he asked again.

"You!" Yang Ruqing said. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Luo Fengtang was surprised, "Why?"

This is just a test to see if your system can translate text from Chinese to English. Please note that I will not modify any HTML tags in the input. I will only return the translated text content.

Yang Ruqing said, "Look at it from a different angle. If today I saw your cousin Zhou Xia's prayer charm here with words like 'I like you' on it,"

“I would definitely tear it down immediately and throw it in the latrine. I wouldn't even consider putting it back up to let this wish tree’s power help her achieve her wishes, especially since they involve stealing my husband's!”

Hearing this, Luofengtang laughed.

He gently stroked Yang Ruoqing's hair: "Silly Ruoqing, do you mean I don't care about you? I let Zichuan have his thoughts about you, not only not stopping him, but also turning a blind eye?"

Yang Ruqing glared at him, "Isn't that right?"

“Don’t you dare tell me this is your open mind and tolerance,” she continued.

"Loving a person is selfish, like a treasure one carefully nurtures, not allowing others to covet it," she declared emphatically. Please note that I cannot process any text contained within the html tags. My role is to translate the plain text content.

"So," she raised her hand and pinched his handsome face hard, "you don't, treat me, like a treasure!"

>

Looking at the handsome and composed face in front of others being deformed by her, although Yang Ruqing still pretended to be sullen, the anger in her heart unconsciously subsided by half.

Luofeng Tang didn't resist, letting her pinch his face until she released him. Then he reached out and hugged her in his arms.

His chin rested lightly against her soft hair, intoxicated by the faint fragrance of flowers in her tresses.

"If I didn't care about you, I could have just sent a lowly soldier on this errand. Why would I go through all this trouble and come back myself?"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

His low voice fell into her ears.

Yang Ruqing couldn't help but raise her head to glance at him, a hint of surprise in her eyes.

In fact, she hadn't completely ruled out this possibility before, but hearing him say it himself now, confirming her guess, made her heart feel warm and fuzzy. The last vestiges of anger within her vanished instantly.

“Just keep going, show me you’re serious about explaining!” Yang Ruqing muttered.

Luo Fengtang spoiled a smile, hugged her tightly, and continued to say:

"Zi Chuan has been fixated on you for years, not just days or weeks. I'm very aware of this."

“But Zichuan is different from Zhouxia. Zichuan is a good man. Even if he likes you, I believe he will act within reason and won't do anything that could tarnish your reputation.” Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! ?

"So, even though I know he has feelings for you, I don't feel any animosity towards him."

"On the contrary, I feel a certain pity for him, for on this battlefield, I am the victor."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

On the battlefield, we treat prisoners with leniency and disarm them without killing. In matters of the heart, I am the victor, but naturally, I would not completely crush the loser. At least, let him retain a sliver of hope...

"As for that prayer scroll, it's nothing but a thin piece of silk with some words expressing his feelings written on it."

“He didn't even pray to the spirits to tear us apart and make him whole, so I hung it back up again.”

“If he, Mu Zichuan, were to write inappropriate things on the prayer talisman, I would absolutely not hang it up. I would even take the evidence to confront him and give him a warning!”

Luo Fengtang spoke all of that in one breath, which was quite unusual for him. He wasn't usually a talkative person.

This person has a special charm in their speech. Every word they speak is meaningful and purposeful.

And it was really effective for Yang Ruqing, almost every word hit her weak points.

Let her discomforts be soothed one by one.

Her heart lake returned to calm, and a faint smile finally appeared on her face, dispelling the dark clouds.

“After hearing all that you’ve said, I can’t be angry with you, and I can’t be angry with Takasawa either,” she said.

Then he raised his hand and tapped his head, "Why am I so easy to talk to? My brain is really simple."

Luo Fengtang grabbed her hand, not letting her knock.

"My daughter Qing'er is kind, honest, and open-hearted," he corrected.

Yang Ruqing looked up at him, "But Tang Ya Zi, if I didn't know about the prayer talisman, it would be fine. But now that I do, I have to go visit my adoptive mother when I return to the village. It's unavoidable that I'll spend time with Zichuan, and I feel embarrassed."

>

Luo Fengtang patiently said, "As long as your heart is clear, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. If he deliberately hides it, we pretend not to see. Sometimes, being naive is a rare virtue."

Yang Ruqing pondered over Luofeng Tang's words and found them very reasonable.

And because of his unwavering trust, she felt light and carefree, not troubled by the matter at all.

>

After playing outside for almost a whole afternoon, Yang Ruqing suggested that since they were already out, they might as well relax outside before heading back to the city.

Because she had lunch at a vegetarian restaurant near Yingjiang Temple, Yang Ruqing suggested having a big meal on the way back.

So I went to have hotpot...

After finishing their hotpot, Luo Baobei's eyelids were already drooping as they returned to the wine shop. Yang Ruqing hurriedly took her for a bath, and after the bath, she put Luo Baobei on the bed. She turned around, and the little girl fell asleep.

"This should be quite satisfying, shouldn't it?" Yang Ruqing asked Luo Fengtang who stood by the bed.

Luo Fengtang, the father, was bending down to cover his daughter's small belly with a blanket.

Hearing Yang Ruqing's words, he smiled, "I see that this little girl is having a good time. This trip to Qianyuan County was not in vain!"
