If the water level rises a little more, it will be really dangerous.
Once the rapids hit the edge of the bridge, they will spread out and form rapids. The force of the rapids can completely push an adult off the bridge.
The rapids under the bridge can swallow up a person whole in an instant.
By then, even the gods will not be able to save him.
"Quick, speed up." Tao Qiqi shouted.
Hearing Tao Qiqi's voice, Shan Qiang waved his whip, and the horse reached its fastest speed.
Finally, Tao Qiqi saw from the rear curtain that the last horse in her team had successfully crossed the bridge.
However, their carriage did not stop because it passed smoothly, but continued to move faster because it was raining heavily at this time.
Just after Tao Qiqi and the others crossed the bridge, in less than a cup of tea, the entire bridge was submerged by the flood.
Tao Qiqi saw that some places on both sides of the river were piled with sandbags. These sandbags were prepared to prevent the water in the river from flowing back outwards.
Of course, some of this is because the river channel was broken by floods before and was temporarily repaired with sandbags.
Looking at those sandbags, Tao Qiqi seemed to understand something.
She had never seen this method before in Dayong.
Only when she was in Yunxi Village before, she taught everyone how to use this method.
In addition to the folks in Yunxi Village who knew about this method, the only other people who knew about this method were Tao Qiqi's guards and the two brothers Nangong Ye.
Of course, she also used it when she was in Jinxiang County.
But it’s unlikely that this method will be spread to Jiangdu City so soon.
Unless it was either her bodyguard or Nangong Ye who had promoted this method to all Dayong.
If it was Nangong Ye, then Tao Qiqi felt that he was right, and it would be wise to help him take that position.
A small thing is enough to show a person's intentions.
Regarding the floods in the south, Nangong Ye has been trying every means to solve them, but because information is slow at this time, Tao Qiqi doesn't know many things.
Fortunately, this time there was no danger, and we no longer had to be trapped in Jiangdu City.
Facing the heavy rain, Tao Qiqi and the others finally saw Zhuangzi where her grandmother lived, following the appearance of a stick of incense.
Looking from a distance, there were several figures standing at the door of the manor.
Some of them were Tao Qiqi's guards, she could recognize them, and there were four other figures. Needless to say, the younger one was probably her father whom she had never met before.
The other older one should be her grandfather.
As for the other two, one must be her grandmother, and the other one standing behind should be the aunt beside her grandmother.
"Back, back." Tao Qiqi heard the voice of her guard Shan Lei from far away.
"Don't worry, Madam. I've already seen the young lady's carriage. It will be there in a moment." This was the voice of the nanny next to Madam Qi.
"Mother Jian, go and make some ginger tea for the young lady and the young lady, so that they can warm themselves up later." Mrs. Qi stared at the carriage running not far away, and gestured back to Jane with her hand.
Grandma went to make ginger tea.
Aunt Jian, who was behind Mrs. Qi, laughed when she heard this and said, "The ginger tea has been boiled a long time ago and has been simmering on the charcoal fire."
Mrs. Qi added: "Then go and boil some hot water. When the young lady and the young lady come back, let them take a hot bath to save them from catching a cold."
Aunt Jian: "It's also heated. Tea, hot water, and dry clothes are all ready."
Mrs. Qi: "What about dinner?"
Aunt Jian: "The kitchen is currently cooking, and I'm worried that the food won't taste good if it's cold and reheated if it's cooked early, so I asked them to wait until the ladies and their carriages pass through Jiangdu City before starting to cook."
Mrs. Qi: "Do you have arrangements for Miss's favorite steamed pork ribs and steamed eggs?"
Aunt Jian: "Yes, yes, yes, there are not only the young lady's favorite food, but also the young lady's favorite braised pig's trotters and braised fish."
As for what Tao Qiqi likes to eat, Mrs. Qi only learned about it from Shan Lei and the others.
Because in the past, Shan Lei and the others saw that what Tao Qiqi ate the most was braised pork trotters and braised fish.
However, Tao Qiqi is actually not picky about food.
Soon, Shan Qiang stopped the carriage at the gate of the manor.
When the carriage stopped, Qi Mei stepped out of the carriage.
Tao Qiqi followed closely behind.
After getting off the carriage, Qi Mei first saw her white-haired mother and her father and Gu Bei on the left and right of her mother.
"Mother, father,... General." Qi Mei pulled Tao Qiqi forward and knelt in front of the two elders. The mother and daughter kowtowed three times. Qi Mei's voice was even choked with sobs.
Looking at their daughter whom they had not seen for more than ten years, Mrs. Qi and Mr. Qi finally couldn't help but burst into tears at this moment.
After helping her daughter and granddaughter up, Mrs. Qi said in a trembling voice: "I'm back. It's good that I'm back. It's fine. It's good that everything is fine."
Looking at the bewildered relatives in front of her, Tao Qiqi slowly said: "Grandpa and grandma are both okay?"
Mrs. Qi looked at Tao Qiqi with gentleness on her face. She nodded and replied: "Your grandfather and I are well taken care of by your father. But you, on the other hand, have suffered a lot in the past few years."
Tao Qiqi: "That is all in the past. Now our family is finally reunited, and everything will be fine in the future. From now on, my mother and I will be filial to our grandfather and grandmother."
"Silly boy, come and see your father. Ever since your father knew that you and your mother were still alive, he has been looking forward to meeting you every day. When he learned that you had set off from Nanguan City,
, he spent the entire day counting the days until we could meet."
"Later I received a letter from you, saying that you were trapped in Jinxiang County by floods. Your father was also very anxious. If Fu An hadn't persuaded him, he would have rushed over to find you."
"Okay now, we finally meet."
Mrs. Qi took Tao Qiqi's hand, turned her around and pulled her closer to Gu Bei.
While holding hands, I kept saying all kinds of good things to this father I had never met before.
Tao Qiqi felt warm in her heart when she listened to what her grandmother said.
Now she can be regarded as someone who is loved by her mother and loved by her father.
The days I once experienced in the Tao family have become a thing of the past with the departure of the original owner.
Looking at the angry man in front of her, the father she had never seen before, Tao Qiqi slowly knelt down and kowtowed to Gu Bei three times.
"Dad, my daughter is back with her mother. Our family will never be separated from now on."
Hearing his daughter calling him daddy, Gu Bei's heart was so excited that his whole body started to tremble.
I stood there for a long time, feeling a bit at a loss.
It took him a long time to realize that he should help his daughter up first.
Then he said excitedly: "I'm back. From now on, our family will never be separated or separated."
After saying that, Tao Qiqi stood up, and Gu Bei stretched out his other hand to Qi Mei.
