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

Chapter 871 When you're down on your luck, even drinking water will cause you trouble.

Fearing that her daughter might not be able to handle it, Qi's mother said tactfully, "Your grandfather is very angry this time, and I'm afraid he won't change his mind anytime soon. The Fu family won't let you off easily. It's best if you don't go out unless absolutely necessary during this period. Do you understand?"

Although Qi Shufang was afraid, she still stubbornly said, "I'm in the south. They can't find me, so what can they do to me?"

Qi's mother looked around and said, "So, during this time, I won't call you anymore. If they can't find you, you're safe. Also, don't upset your aunt during this time. If something really happens, you'll have to rely on her."

Qi Shufang said somewhat impatiently, "I know, then remember to send me more money."

Qi Shufang wanted to say something more, but the other end of the phone had already hung up.

Qi Shufang was furious that she had thrown away her money without even seeing a splash, and she thought about going to settle accounts with her cousin's friend.

While angry, one's mental energy is naturally not very focused, and before even reaching the destination, one accidentally slips and falls into a passing pond.

She had learned to swim before, but only in the shallow end of the swimming pool. This pond was very deep, and her belly was already showing, so she wasn't as agile. In addition, she panicked and couldn't climb ashore. Instead, the more she struggled, the further she drifted away from the shore.

This scared her half to death.

When bad luck strikes, even drinking water can cause problems. Perhaps he was frightened, because his leg cramped up shortly afterward.

This terrified her even more, and she thrashed about even more violently. By the time nearby residents came running over, she had already reached the center of the pond.

A man jumped in to save her, and after a lot of effort, he swam to a spot not far from her, but she wouldn't let anyone get close: "Get me a rope, I'll tie it to myself, and you can just drag me."

The man was a little angry, but he knew what she was worried about. However, he was naturally reluctant to go back after swimming so far. "What time is it? Just make do with it." He reached out to grab her, but Qi Shufang didn't appreciate it and started cursing at him.

The man initially intended to ignore the matter, but seeing the village chief standing on the bank, he had no choice but to shout angrily towards the shore, "Quickly throw down a stick or rope!"

A woman who happened to be in the crowd who came to watch the commotion discovered that it was her son rescuing someone from the pond and became furious: "Son, since the person doesn't want to come up, stop meddling and get up here right now."

This delay was too much for Qi Shufang, and she choked on water and sank.

Not only the young man who rescued the person from the water, but also the onlookers on the shore were startled.

The village chief immediately shouted for the young man in the water to save the person first, and the people on the shore exclaimed in surprise.

The young man couldn't care less about anything else at that moment and quickly swam over to pull the person out.

Of course, the young man also remembered what Qi Shufang had said before, so he showed no mercy and directly grabbed her hair and dragged her to the shore.

The young man was a good swimmer and had great stamina, so he reached the shore in no time. However, Qi Shufang had swallowed a lot of water while underwater and was still feeling dizzy.

When Qi Shufang's aunt arrived after hearing the news, she was so frightened that she almost lost her mind: "Shufang, how are you? Don't scare your aunt. If something happens to you, how can I explain it to your family? Wake up!"

Seeing that Qi Shufang didn't react, she was terrified and anxiously begged the onlookers, "Please help me get her to the clinic. I will reward you handsomely."
