1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 1145 Special arrangements
Just as the woman was yelling, another huge wave opened up, sweeping the seawater even further away.

In an instant, not only the woman, but everyone on the beach exclaimed, "Ah, Gangzi!"

All the experienced men were shouting, "Swim with the backflow, Gangzi, swim with the backflow!"

Gangzi's mother, heartbroken, threw herself into the sea.

The captain quickly spoke up: "Grab her, or we'll have to save her too, since Gangzi couldn't be saved."

Chu Xue was covered in sweat, and her arms were so sore she could barely lift them. But no matter what that woman was like, the fact that she rushed into the sea to save someone as soon as she saw them fall in meant that the girl was probably right.

She tried her best to throw the rope out again and again, but the waves were too big, and most of the ropes were swept away and wasted halfway. The people on the shore were very anxious.

Seeing that the delay couldn't go on, the captain said, "Hu Cheng, take some men and get that new boat in the village on board. We'll go to sea to rescue people."

Someone spoke up: "Captain, that boat was only brought back to the village less than a month ago, and with such a big storm, what if..."

The captain raised his hand to stop the man from saying anything more: "Even if Gangzi went into the sea to save someone, it was still a living person. We can just watch and not save him."

Fearing that further delay might lead to another accident, the captain disregarded everything else, personally selected a few people, and headed straight for the nearby parking area.

Gangzi's mother was now limp and collapsed on the beach.

Seeing that the people were about to cross the rope in a straight line, Chu Xue disregarded everything else and ran after the captain and the others.

As she ran, she told the people nearby who were helping Xiangbao'er not to stop, and only to stop after they made a sound. Gangzi's mother, seeing Chuxue run away, struggled to get up anxiously: "Don't go! My son is still in the sea, you can't!"

Before he could finish speaking, he fainted.

The uncles and elders of Gangzi's family, who had just received the news, wanted to rush into the sea to save him when they heard that Gangzi was in the water. The village secretary immediately had them pulled back: "Don't you see how high the waves are? If you can't save Gangzi, you'll only cause more trouble for everyone."

Just as the Party Secretary was trying to persuade people, the brigade leader and his men arrived at the new boat. It was the newest boat in the village and also the largest in tonnage. The reason they brought it out was to use its weight to hold back the waves and prevent it from capsizing easily.

Since it was a child the village had watched grow up who was in danger, many men from the village boarded the boat with him, hoping that more people would make the boat more stable.

When Chu Xue ran over, the captain had just boarded the boat: "Captain, can I come aboard? The rope I'm using can't reach the child anymore."

The captain was momentarily at a loss, since women from their fishing village were never allowed on the boats, but now...
Just then, the old village chief came over from the village: "Dewang, saving lives is the priority."

Gangzi's fellow men also hurriedly echoed, "Captain, Gangzi can't wait any longer. We don't have this girl's aim. Saving her is the priority."

The captain knew that when rescuing people by boat, they couldn't get too close to the child. Although there was a fishing net on the boat, it was hard to guarantee accuracy, and the net rope could easily hurt the child. He was afraid of delaying the rescue. The rope in the girl's hand was safer. The captain waved his hand and said, "Special case, special procedure. Come on up."

Soon, the ship sailed out of the dock.

Gangzi was lucky; the waves were smaller than before as the boat approached him.
