Erguaizi left him here and hurried to the mansion. When he stepped forward, the two guards at the door immediately put their swords across the door and shouted, "Stop!"
"What do you do?"
Erguaizi smiled and stepped forward, stuffing a tael of silver into each of them, "Gentlemen, I'm here to inquire about someone."
Hearing him say he was just asking about someone, the two of them smiled and accepted the change. "You tell me, as long as we know something, we will tell you."
Erguaizi, "I just want to know, is there a woman named Suixiang in your house? Is she your master's concubine?"
"Honoka?" The two looked at each other and thought carefully, "Oh! There is such a person!"
"When the master first took her in, she was so stubborn that she refused to obey!"
Erguaizi's heart was in his throat. "Where is she now? Is she... still alive?"
Erguaizi was a little afraid to know the answer, but what if his child was still alive?
"Still alive!"
"I'm working for the lady!"
"The lady asked the master for her."
As he was speaking, the door opened from the inside, and a young woman came out with a basket in her hand. "Thank you for your hard work, brothers. I'll go buy something for my wife..."
Before the woman could finish her words, she looked up and saw Erguaizi. Her eyes widened in disbelief, "Dad?! Dad, it's really you!!"
"Honoka!!"
Erguaizi burst into tears, his voice choked with sobs, "Sui Xiang..."
"father!"
Honoka threw herself into his arms and cried aggrievedly, "I thought I would never see you again!"
Seeing the relationship between the two, the guard said, "Miss Sui Xiang, go and keep your father company first!"
"Don't forget to buy the lady's things."
"Okay." Suixiang choked up and pulled Erguaizi away first. Erguaizi followed her to a less crowded place. He held Suixiang's hand and said, "Suixiang, Daddy will take you away!"
"That county magistrate is a complete beast. It's all Dad's fault for not being able to protect you!"
Honoka shook her head, "Dad, you've tried your best to protect me. It's all my fault for not living up to your expectations."
"Dad, I can't leave now. Madam is very good to me."
"The county magistrate wanted to rape me, but it was Madam who saved me."
Honoka wiped away a tear and said, "I'm doing well working for Madam now. I want to repay Madam. Now that the county magistrate is no longer able to do his job, he won't think of harassing me anymore."
She couldn't help but repay the favor!
When Erguaizi heard that the county magistrate's wife was a good person, he felt relieved and said, "Don't lie to me!"
"Dad, how could I lie to you?"
"Madam is really good to me. Look at me now, I'm a little fatter than before."
Honoka turned around in front of him and said, "Dad, you don't have to worry about me. I have saved some money. I will go back and give it to you later."
"I've always wanted to go back to see you, but my wife has been feeling unwell lately, so I've been taking care of her and can't get away."
"Dad, you've lost weight. Did you not eat well?"
Erguaizi held her hand and shed tears, shaking his head, "Dad is fine, as long as you are okay."
Huixiang didn't know what happened in the city. When the county magistrate took them away, the temperature was only a little hotter than usual, not outrageously hot.
After arriving here, she studied under the Madam, but then the Madam fell ill again...
It was rare for her to go out, and every time she would just buy something in a hurry and go back.
The lady needs someone by her side now.
Therefore, she was not aware that such a big thing had happened in that city.
"Seeing that you are doing well, Dad is relieved!"
"You keep your money for yourself. Dad doesn't need it!"
He can go out to earn money. Even if he doesn't have the ability to give his daughter a good life, he can't hold her back.
"No, Dad, I haven't been by your side for a while. I should give you this money."
Honoka said, "I'm going to go buy something for my wife first. Dad, you wait here for me. You must wait for me!"
Erguaizi nodded, "Okay!"
"Go quickly!"
Suixiang hurried away with the basket. She had bought things for her wife, and when she passed by some food stalls, she also bought some of her father's favorite foods.
When she returned home, she saw her father also holding cakes in his hands.
Erguaizi handed her the cake and said, "This is your favorite. Dad just bought it. It's still warm."
Honoka was moved to tears, "Dad!"
"I just bought this. It's your favorite, Dad. We really have a father-daughter bond!"
Erguaizi was very happy, "You still remember what dad likes to eat."
"Honoka, you're fine here."
"Don't worry, Dad!"
Erguaizi handed the food to her and took the food from her.
"good!"
Honoka thought of her wife, "I'll go give these things to her first."
"Yes!" Erguaizi took out all the remaining silver and stuffed it into her pocket. "Here!"
"If you don't take it, it means you think what Dad gave you is too little."
He said so, and Honoka had no choice but to accept it, "Thanks, Dad!"
She just needs to give her father more money later.
Honoka hurried in, gave the things to the lady, explained the situation to her, and ran out with her purse.
But she didn't see her father. There was only a little child waiting there. When he saw her coming, he walked towards her and said, "Sister, your father wants me to tell you that he doesn't want your money. You should keep it for yourself. He can still make some money!"
