Chapter 586: The River God’s Bride x “Top Scholar” River God (5)

"Old man Yu, thanks to your granddaughter! The rain has finally stopped."

"Yes, yes, your granddaughter is a blessed one. It is obvious that she is very favored by the Lord River God! Otherwise, how could the rain stop so quickly?"

"Old man Yu, it was your granddaughter who saved our entire village. We will all remember her kindness."

"Yes, we all remember her kindness. From now on, the people in our village will take care of you two until the end of your life."

"..."

Hearing these words, Old Man Yu just sat there numbly, his face was sallow, his eyes were dull, and his lips were trembling slightly.

Old Mrs. Yu was busy in the kitchen, but her eyes were fixed on the yard outside the window, and tears kept flowing.

She wiped her tears and continued to cook, muttering: "My poor granddaughter! She died in the river like this."

After the villagers outside the yard left, Old Man Yu stood up, slowly walked to the door, looked at the clouds in the sky and the green mountains in the distance, his heart filled with sadness and pain.

He thought of his granddaughter, the smart, kind and filial girl, who had now left them forever.

Old lady Yu brought out the food and placed it on the table. She looked at her husband's dejected back and comforted him softly, "Don't be too sad, old man. Yanyan doesn't want to see us like this."

Old man Yu turned around, his eyes full of tears, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Old woman, I really regret letting her go to sacrifice to the river god. I should have risked my life to keep Yanyan..."

stay?

No, he couldn't stay.

The people in the village will not allow Yanyan to stay.

Even if he died on the spot, Yanyan would still be drowned in the river.

Old Yu burst into tears, "It's all my fault! I can't even protect my only granddaughter. I deserve to die! I deserve to die!"

When Old Lady Yu heard her husband crying, she couldn't help but cry with him.

After an unknown amount of time, he wiped his tears, sighed and said, "Old man, don't blame yourself. Yanyan would be upset if she knew. She didn't resist and agreed to be the bride of the river god just for our sake. If you cry again, how can her soul rest in peace in heaven?"

Old man Yu nodded and sat down to eat silently. Although the food was in front of him, he had no appetite.

The image of his granddaughter kept appearing in his mind, recalling her smile and the words she said.

Thinking about how she grew from a skinny baby into a graceful young lady.

Thinking that she felt sorry for herself and her wife, she worked day and night at home embroidering to earn money to buy them winter clothes.

Every detail made him feel heartbroken and he couldn't let it go.

After dinner, Old Man Yu decided to go to the river to take a look.

He wanted to feel for himself whether the river had calmed down, and also wanted to remember his granddaughter there.

Mrs. Yu was worried about his physical condition, and even more worried that he would become depressed.

But he insisted on going, so he nodded in agreement silently without any dissuasion.

"I will go with you."

"it is good."

Old Man Yu nodded, and helped Old Lady Yu to the river.

On the surface of the river, the water has returned to its former calm.

The sun shines on the water, making it sparkle, as if nothing had ever happened.

He stood quietly on the shore, staring at the river for a long time without saying a word.

Old Mrs. Yu, who was standing next to him, slowly squatted down and put her hand into the river.

She felt the flow of the water as if she were feeling her beloved granddaughter.

"Yanyan, grandma is here to see you. Go with peace of mind! Grandpa and grandma will live well..."

Old Mrs. Yu talked a lot, and as she spoke, tears fell from her eyes. She tried to wipe them with her other hand, but the more she wiped, the more tears fell.

Yanyan died to save and protect them, so she and the old man will live well.

Old man Yu listened to his wife's words silently and couldn't help but tears up in his eyes.

At the bottom of the river, a group of shrimps and crabs were hiding in the dark, secretly observing the situation on the shore.

"Who are those two old men and old lady? Why do their scents feel familiar? I feel like I've smelled them somewhere before." A shrimp soldier scratched his head and asked in confusion.

Another shrimp soldier echoed, "Yes, yes, I think so too, but I can't remember where I smelled it."

At this time, a crab patted their heads and cursed, "Idiots, those are the grandparents of the River God's Bride! They are blood relatives to the River God's Bride, so you think their aura is very familiar."

"Oh...so that's how it is." The shrimp soldiers nodded in sudden enlightenment.

Then, another shrimp soldier said excitedly: "Since they are the grandparents of the River God's Bride, doesn't that mean we are also a family!"

When the crab heard this, he immediately slapped it and cursed, "Family! If the Lord River God knew about this, he would definitely eat you! Hurry up and report it to the Lord River God!"

After saying that, it led a group of shrimps and crabs and swam hurriedly into the river.
