Chapter 203
It wasn't until the woman in red came bouncing over that Mu Wanwan saw the smile on that man's face.

"Father."

The woman looked up and greeted him with a smile.

He also responded with a smile.

At this moment, Mu Wanwan only felt a tightness in her chest.

She grew up so big, the impression of her father is only the smoke and loud roar, or the sound of mahjong falling on the table.

She swung her sword to cut through the illusion, only feeling a little more uncomfortable among her children.

"You said Man Niang left? With a Central Plains person?"

This time he was wearing a somewhat whitish blue shirt.

The face of the person on the opposite side had a lingering pain: "Brother Zhu, Man Niang likes that Central Plains man, and I can't persuade her."

Mu Wanwan only felt a pang of pain in her heart. She saw that this was the father who had married her daughter's news, staggered to sit on the chair, and because she didn't control her strength, she turned over directly.

The person he called Brother Liu stretched out his hand to help him up.

"Brother Zhu, from now on, you should live in my Baichilou. Before Manniang left, she didn't ask for wages, and her beau was pretty good. He left some money and asked me to take care of you."

He stood up slowly, hunched over and walked out.

Walk very slowly, very slowly.

A few moments later, Mu Wanwan saw him walking back again.

Carrying the manuscript on his body, holding a flower pot in his arms.

"Come on, let's see where I live? Since she asked me to wait for her here, I will wait here for her."

So the man placed him on the highest floor near the street. In front of him was the market with people coming and going, listening to the hawkers, and behind him was the highest floor of Baichi Building.

When he looked up, he could see the scattered fences of the building behind him from the window, and he even felt that he could reach it with his hand for a hundred years.

Of course, he tried it on the first day of his stay, and he could reach it, but it took a lot of effort.

The days without Manniang are boring and fast.

Mu Wanwan watched as his hair became gray, his teeth became loose, and finally his beard began to fall off slowly.

During those countless days waiting for his daughter to come back, he lived a repetitive and boring life.

Eating three meals that are not bad, dreaming sometimes frightening dreams.

When he was awake, he would often go to the back window to copy a piece of "Heart Sutra". After copying, he spread out the paper and began to write the story in his mind.

It's just that his spirit is getting worse and worse, looking at the pear blossoms falling in the snow outside the window, watching the fireworks outside the building and sighing at the spring day.

Although it was three years, it seemed to him that 30 years had passed.

One spring afternoon, he heard a cat meowing outside the window, and when he looked up, he found the cat on the eaves of the highest floor of Baichilou.

So he secretly ran to the back building, quietly opened the door, and climbed up to the eaves.

But the cat is flexible, but he is not flexible.

The cold wind from above made him shiver, and he glanced downstairs.

Still like what I saw at first, I couldn't see the bottom, and I couldn't hear any sound.

Only the meowing of cats and the whistling of the wind can be heard.

His heart beat fast, because he knew that if he fell, he would never have the chance to see his daughter again.

But I was afraid of something, maybe the roof tiles hadn't been replaced for a long time, and moss had grown on them.

He accidentally slipped and fell down.

His heart beat faster, and he even felt that he had escaped to his throat, and he felt a tightness in his chest.

Slowly opened his eyes, but found that he was falling between the high platform and the outer wall.

He lowered his head and the clouds and mist filled his body, and when everything was silent, he heard a slight snoring beside his ears.

After so long, he didn't even know that there were people living in this tall building.

He couldn't hold on any longer, and slowly reached out to break off the flourishing Phalaenopsis by the window, squeezed out the mud inside, and walked towards the cat on the roof.

The cat was frightened and took a few steps back.

He reached out to pick up the manuscript again and threw it on top, but the manuscript fell on the high platform.

He glanced over and could even see the big three characters "Su Yang Biography".

He didn't care, and continued to squeeze a handful of dirt and threw it out. This time the cat jumped down suddenly, brought down a piece of tile, and stepped on his stomach again.

The people in the room seemed to wake up, and he smiled.

Mu Wanwan didn't know his intentions at first, but now when she saw him struggling to break the balance and wanted to fall, she still didn't understand.

Seeing the relieved chuckle on his face, Mu Wanwan only felt a shock in her heart.

The expected fall did not come, but someone grabbed his hand instead.

The man was simple and honest, and it took all his strength to pull him up a little bit.

"Don't bother, old man, I won't live long, and I will be clean after death like this."

The young man ignored him and just shouted into the room: "Liu Man, come out and help."

He felt that the clouds passing by his ears stopped. Looking at the woman walking around the corner, he even forgot his words.

"Aman."

The two tried their best to rescue him.

He was lying on the rocking chair on the high platform, feeling the joy of surviving, and even more the shock of seeing Ah Man.

He didn't understand why his daughter came back, right in front of his eyes, but didn't come to see him.

"Uncle Zhu, I haven't seen you for so many years, you are much older."

He was puzzled, he didn't understand, and he didn't speak.

"Amin, I just said that I want to eat mung bean cake, can you help me get it?"

Ah Man opened his mouth to push the person next to his pillow away.

He was so shocked that he couldn't speak, and Ah Man continued to speak: "Father, I was forced to leave that year, and I was pregnant with his child. I know, if you found out about this, you would definitely be beaten to death." Me, I will discuss it with Uncle Liu. Uncle Liu said that A Ming is a businessman, and a businessman values ​​profit. If A Ming knows that you are just a poor scholar, he might dislike me. He also said that he is a businessman. If I recognize him as my father, Amin will love and respect me more in the future. So I agreed, not only for me, but also for my child."

He was silent, and spoke only after a long time: "Then why don't you come back to see Dad? Dad has been waiting for you here for many years."

Man Niang sobbed slightly, then tremblingly said: "I thought you were gone. Uncle Liu told me that you were too sad because of me leaving."

He understood everything when he heard this. From the beginning to the end, Liu had used his daughter as a springboard for his fame and fortune.

He sighed: "It's useless if it's Father."

Then he took out a tassel from his arms.

"This tassel has been with me for many years. It was made by your mother during her lifetime. You take it. My father is very relieved to have your Uncle Liu here. Your husband has been gone for a long time. You should go find him."

His eyes gradually blurred, and Mu Wanwan said, "You are going to die."

He seemed to be able to see Mu Wanwan: "Yeah, I'm going to die. It's just that I don't know one thing. Why have you followed me since I arrived in Pengshan?"

Mu Wanwan was startled: "You can see it all the time?"

He smiled: "Yes, but I didn't expect that it would be you who accompanied me on the last journey."
