Chapter 263

While Qingran and the others were watching from a distance, a short figure standing behind the crowd was walking back and forth restlessly with his head down. That was his daughter, the only daughter, and her wife died early. , so he left such a daughter by his side to take care of him. He thought that because he was fond of gambling, he had not fulfilled his responsibility as a father, and because he pushed his only son and daughter away from the city lord because of gambling debts, Let him catch him and go to Shenjiang, but at that time, his daughter just shed tears and looked at him quietly with desperate eyes, without saying a word. Under her gaze, he even Not daring to meet her gaze, not daring to look up at her...

Now, she is about to be sunk into the bottom of the river. Thinking about how she served him obediently and filially in the past, she panicked, as if a wooden stick had knocked him awake in one fell swoop. A thought came to her mind. , she is his daughter, the only daughter, he can't let her be sunk into the bottom of the river by them, absolutely not!
Knowing the thoughts in his heart, he finally raised his head, and quickly squeezed forward, shouting: "City Lord, City Lord, I don't want that silver anymore, I don't want it anymore, I want my daughter, I want to take my daughter Go home! City lord, city lord..." The panicked voice carried a kind of fear and uneasiness, fearing that they would sink her into the bottom of the river and sleep in the river forever. What will happen in the future?If that's the case, then what face will he have to see her mother after he dies?
If it weren't for all of today, he would never know how good his daughter is, how filial and well-behaved his daughter is. When it was cold, she would soak his feet in hot water, and would light up the lamp at night to do needlework and sew for him. Making coats for winter, he still remembers that when she finished the coats and sent them to him, her hands were punctured with pinholes, but she smiled and said: Daddy just wear warm clothes...

He is a jerk!How could he forget all of this!
He actually used all the wages she got from washing her little hand in ice-like water for a month in winter when she was only 12 years old at the time!After losing everything and returning home, she still lost her temper at her, but the glass of water she threw casually hit her forehead. At that time, she touched her bleeding forehead, and called him timidly: Daddy, Xiaojuan put the food away. It's hot. Are you hungry?

While thinking, tears blurred his eyes, and he accidentally threw himself on the ground, getting mud all over his body, and scratched the skin on his palms, but he didn't have time to pat it clean, so he kept running forward.

"City lord, city lord, I don't want your money anymore, I want my daughter, I want my daughter..." Only he knew the grief in his tears, and he was panicked at this moment.

Hearing that familiar voice, the girl who stood motionless like a stone sculpture by the river finally raised her lowered eyes slowly, opened her mouth slightly, and stared blankly at the girl in front of her. The slapping river water.

Did she hear wrong?She actually heard her father's voice?Is it her father?is it him?Turning her head abruptly, she saw the figure running out of the crowd, crying and yelling, it was really her father, does her father still want her?Does her father still want her?Tears flowed down uncontrollably, faded the makeup on her face, she cried and laughed at the same time, her father said, he doesn't want money anymore, he wants to take her home!He wants to take her home!

"Father! Daddy..." There were too many unspeakable emotions in the joyful voice. Seeing Daddy who was blocked by several men and could no longer walk by her side, she smiled, and a beautiful flower bloomed like a flower. Smile, satisfied and delighted...

"Xiaojuan, Xiaojuan, I'm sorry, it's Daddy who's sorry for you, Daddy knows he's wrong, he really knows he's wrong! Don't be afraid, Daddy will beg the city lord to let you go, and then we'll go home, Daddy swears never to gamble again , I will definitely treat you well, don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, I’ll return the money to the city lord, and beg him to let you go.” He said, turning to the side again, crying bitterly and remorsefully: “City lord, city lord, please Please, please let my daughter go! I'll give you back the money, I don't want it, I don't want it..."

Although she knew that her father could not save her by this time, at least she knew that her father still loved her and had not forgotten that she was his daughter. To see him here again, and to hear such words from him, She has no regrets in this life...

"The time has come, it's too late to say anything now, this is a sacred ceremony once a year, how can you let you say one and say two! Come, pull him away!" The city lord in Chinese clothes, It was because he couldn't bear it, and he didn't dare to reveal anything on his face. He kept a cold face all the time, showing a hard-hearted look with no expression on his face.

"No! Don't! Don't! City Lord, City Lord, please, don't let my daughter Shen Jiang, I'm just such a daughter! If she dies, how will I live in the future! Wuwu...don't...I have already I knew I was wrong, I really knew I was wrong..." When he heard that the time had come, he was so shocked that he didn't know what to do, even if he knew his mistake and regretted it at this time, his daughter's life would not be saved.

"Pull away, the time has come, prepare to sink into the river!" The city lord shouted in a cold voice, and immediately the guards stepped forward to pull him away. Just when several men came to the girl and prepared to sink her into the bottom of the river, The girl looked up at the city lord, and said with a choked voice, "City lord, just let me bid farewell to my father!"

After the city lord nodded slightly, she slowly knelt down towards the tearful and blocked father, and said in a tearful voice: "Daddy, when you sent your daughter to the city lord, the daughter's heart, in the Blood dripping, daddy, when my daughter was facing the surging river in fear and despair, she called daddy in her heart and asked, where is daddy? Do you really want me?" Looking at the crying Ti's father, she slowly burst into a happy and happy smile in front of everyone, and said softly: "But when Daddy appeared here, when Daddy said he would take me home, I didn't complain anymore, Don't be afraid anymore, Daddy, you have to take good care of yourself, remember to add clothes when it's cold, you have a bad stomach, you have to eat on time, remember to heat up the food when it's cold, my daughter made you a new pair of boots a few days ago, Just put it under the bed." As she spoke, she kowtowed three times to her sobbing father, then stopped looking at him, and slowly stood up, facing the rolling river.
