Zhong Congyun couldn't swim so he was sent back to the shore to look for someone.

Xu Yiyi hesitated for a moment and then stood up.

"I'm good at swimming. I can help."

Xu Yiyi raised her hand and stood out from the crowd, holding the tiny Wu Yuan in her arms.

The uncle pulled her back.

"You join in all the fun."

The uncle glanced at me sideways, his tone a little serious.

Immediately afterwards, people from the crowd stood up one after another.

In the past, this time was usually when fishermen went out to sea, and there were usually not so many people around.

But it was also a coincidence that the competition was held today, which is an annual event, and the shore was crowded with people.

As soon as Zhong Congyun called out, many people stood up.

The place where the merchant ship had the accident was not far from the shore and was still near the sea.

It's just that some people were knocked unconscious by the waves and fell into the sea. Most people can't hold their breath, so even if they go into the water, they don't dare to go too deep.

After all, saving lives requires doing what you can.

When Yun Duo heard that the government was giving money, she stood up without hesitation.

He and Xu Yiyi rowed the boat to the vicinity of the shipwreck.

At this time, only the top of the boat was still floating on the water, with seven or eight people standing on it, not knowing whether to jump or not.

As soon as the boat approached, Yun Duo and Xu Yiyi tied the rope around their bodies and quickly jumped into the water.

The woman's screams were still ringing in his ears. Xu Yiyi didn't have time to think about it. He just felt that the woman's tone of voice was a little strange.

As soon as I dived into the water, I saw many people unconscious.

Xu Yiyi didn't dare to delay and grabbed two people who were slowly sinking nearby and swam towards the surface of the sea.

As soon as it surfaced, someone took over.

The old doctor in the clinic twisted his waist when he arrived in such a hurry that he was now saving people in a strange posture.

Just as Xu Yiyi was about to dive back, someone grabbed her collar from behind.

"Save my son and I'll give you money."

The strange tone sounded again, and Xu Yiyi became more confused.

He doesn't look like anyone from here.

"My mission is to rescue people. If I meet your son, I will pull him up."

Xu Yiyi reached out and pulled her hand away, and at this moment, Yun Duo emerged from the water.

Gasping for breath, he surfaced with a survivor.

The woman took advantage of the situation and hit Yun Duo.

"Help me save my son, and I'll give you more silver than the government will give."

The woman was dressed in silk and was very elegant.

Yun Duo had no doubt whether she could come up with the money.

He nodded and agreed without hesitation.

When he entered the water again, he saw several struggling figures. Xu Yiyi swam over and found that someone had tied them all together with a belt and was preparing to swim upwards.

Xu Yiyi swam over quickly, stretched out her slender arms, and helped the man hold the rope.

While adjusting his posture, he stared at his legs hard.

While swimming, the hair band came loose and her long hair floated in the water.

Xu Yiyi didn't notice that the person behind her had widened his eyes.

Yun Duo searched the water for a child that matched the woman's description, but found none.

The further I swam in, the more my ears started to sting.

But when I thought about the money for my parents' medical treatment and the need to support my younger siblings, I had no intention of backing down.

Xu Yiyi brought the man to the surface of the sea with great difficulty. Zhong Congyun immediately pulled up the rope, passed it through the mast, and used the force to pull the man up.

The strings look like hanging lanterns.

The person tied to the rope slowly surfaced.

The person who strung these people on the rope turned his head to the other side as soon as he came out of the water.

As if observing something.

Her hair was spread out, covering most of her face.

Just about to dive into the water.

Xu Yiyi took a look, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and snorted coldly.

But it made the person next to him stiffen.

"Xu, do you find it interesting to do this?"

Xu Yiyi was still worried about what Lin Ke said, that Xu Yinli faked his death because he was carrying out a mission.

He didn't call out the person's name directly.

Xu Yinli didn't expect that even in this state, his eldest daughter still recognized him.

Feeling a little nervous, he turned his head away, seemingly afraid to look at Xu Yiyi's expression.

"Father also has his own difficulties..."

Xu Yinli covered his face with all his hair, not daring to show his entire head.

After all, Zhong Congyun was the only one on the official ship who knew him.

"Do you think you can be forgiven by just saying this? Do you know that your family is about to fall apart because of this?"

Xu Yiyi almost bit the silver teeth to pieces, not knowing whether it was the original owner's emotions that were at work.

She couldn't remain calm at this moment.

"I don't know, I really don't know. Every time I go back, your mother always pretends to be so well-off, and you guys are well-dressed. I thought your mother would be able to lead you guys through life well after I died."

Xu Yinli didn't return home for many years, but every time he went back, everything was fine.

Although the uncle always told her about his wife's many faults, most of which were about being lazy and gluttonous, he felt that he could accept it as long as she didn't mistreat the children.

Who would have thought that his wife would run away, leaving behind several children, just after he "died".

If they hadn't been established one by one, this family would have really fallen apart.

"Don't give me so many reasons. I won't accept them."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhong Congyun emerged from the boat, and Xu Yi instinctively pushed Xu Yinli's head into the water.

She only let go of his hand after the man left.

"If this can help you vent your anger, then Daddy will accept it. Come on, give it a few more times."

Xu Yinli said in a muffled voice, looking like he was ready to accept any punishment.

"Don't bother me, just do what you need to do. I don't care about you. As for the family, you don't need to worry about it. We are doing well now. It doesn't matter whether you are there or not."

Xu Yiyi snorted coldly and dived under the water.

Xu Yinli was anxious and hurried to follow.

Doesn't this mean you don't want him anymore?

The cloud was determined to find the woman's son, diving deeper and deeper.

The light around her grew dimmer and darker, stirring up the fear in her heart.

Suddenly, a school of fish swam over her.

It made her terrified.

In the dark sea, her figure was tiny and she tried hard to open her eyes.

The boat began to sink slowly.

She just felt a tightness in her chest. She shook her head and tried to see her surroundings clearly, but her body seemed unable to move.

The next moment, someone grabbed his hair and his body began to swim upwards.

She struggled subconsciously, and Xu Yiyi patted her shoulder.

The two men passed through the school of fish and slowly swam back to the bright light.

Xu Yinli found the child, and Xu Yiyi grabbed Yun Duo's hand and held the child in his arms.

His stomach was bloated and lifeless, and he looked like something was wrong.

The two did not dare to waste time and brought the child out of the water as quickly as possible.

With a thud, the child was put onto Xu Yiyi's boat.

She quickly undressed the child, folded her hands, and pressed the child's chest rhythmically.

"Jia Yu——"

The woman finally broke down when she saw the child on Xu Yiyi's boat.

He jumped into the water, struggling in panic. Seeing this, Yun Duo pulled him over.

Xu Yiyi's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

The next moment, he was pushed into the water by the woman. The woman was holding the child and was so devastated that she couldn't cry.

Before Xu Yiyi had time to get angry, she quickly got up and continued what she was doing.

Seeing this, the old doctor came over to take the patient's pulse and shook his head silently.

The woman collapsed on the ground, her eyes lifeless.

"It's useless. This person is dead."

The old doctor gave Yun Duo some advice, but she thought that she would not be able to get the money.

Xu Yiyi did not give up. She laid the child flat, took a deep breath, and slowly bent down.

Yun Duo subconsciously wanted to stop him when she saw this. After all, the child was gone, and it would not be nice to do something inappropriate to him.

But after seeing Xu Yiyi's serious look, he retracted his hand.

After an unknown amount of time, the child suddenly spit out a mouthful of water.

Seeing this, the old doctor reached out his hand.

The child still hadn't woken up, but he already had a weak pulse.

"There's movement. Your son is moving."

The clouds floating on the water were amazing.

Xu Yiyi's movements continued, and the old medical worker assisted him.

Although he hadn't woken up yet, the child was breathing again.

Seeing this, the woman did not dare to delay and took the child on the official ship back.

There were still some people left on the sea to finish the job.

Xu Yiyi was just about to look for Xu Yinli when she noticed a package on the boat and opened it.

Silver again.

It seemed that the person had run away again without her knowing.

There's no need to look for it anymore.

On the way back, Yun Duo lay on the boat, feeling scared as if she had survived a disaster.

My head is still dizzy after coming out of the sea.

I thought she was really after money and almost lost her life.

"Don't worry, the government said they would give money, so they will definitely give it."

Xu Yiyi thought Yun Duo was worried about not getting the money and was worried about it right now.

"Thank you for what you did just now! If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have probably been sleeping there forever."

Yun Duo blinked, her tone full of gratitude towards Xu Yiyi.

"There's no need to say thank you. I know you'd be willing to take some risks for your family."

For example, she ran to the provincial capital hoping to become a pearl girl, and just now she swam straight into the deep water.

No matter which one it is, it is extremely dangerous for Yun Duo.

"You still have to be careful next time. You won't be so lucky every time."

Yun Duo sat up suddenly, "Don't worry! It won't happen again."

That kind of fear came to me later, under the sunshine, the sun was shining on my body.

Only then did Yun Duo feel alive again.

She suddenly became more concerned about her life.

When the two returned to the shore, Zhong Congyun was distributing rewards to the fishermen he had rescued at sea.

Several dark-skinned middle-aged men standing nearby couldn't help but start talking to Xu Yiyi when they saw her.

"You're a very good swimmer and quite brave. How old are you?"

Xu Yiyi smiled slightly, and her uncle hurried forward.

He glanced at those people with a scrutinizing gaze and spoke for Xu Yiyi.

Everyone was even more shocked when they heard that Xu Yiyi was only thirteen years old.

"I can't believe she's so talented at such a young age. You didn't see it, this woman wasn't afraid to go into the water at all. She went back and forth several times to rescue people from the sea. Even experienced fishermen like us can't do that."

When Er Er heard this, he held his head very high.

He seemed to be happy as if he was praising her.

"This is my eldest sister! She's amazing! She was the best at holding her breath just now."

Er Er shook his head.

Sanchuan smiled shyly.

"Your eldest sister is really amazing. Who is more amazing, you or your eldest sister?"

One person is adding fuel to the fire.

Er Er didn't hear it, "Of course my eldest sister is better, I can't compare to her."

The uncle didn't want Xu Yiyi to be in the spotlight too much, so he took the children and wanted to leave.

However, Xu Yiyi's reputation for being good at swimming and holding his breath spread.

Many of her regular customers help promote her stall.

I heard that Xu Yiyi’s ingredients are basically caught from the sea, and many people said they wanted to come and try it.

I don’t know if it’s true or not, but everyone is happy to hear nice words.

Xu Yiyi stuffed Wuyuan, who was crying out for her to hold him, into Er'er's arms. Sanchuan went to collect her ten taels of reward silver, and Sihai said goodbye to Duoyu reluctantly.

A Yue was holding a large box of leftover pastries from Sihai and eating them with relish.

On the way back, Xu Anyang kept praising the government for its generosity today.

So much reward was given.

"Don't you think about how dangerous it was to rescue someone this time? If you give them a dozen coins, do you think anyone would be willing to help you if you encounter problems again?"

Although the fishermen's willingness to help may not necessarily be based on money, but if they really only give this little.

It is inevitable that fishermen will have some resentment in their hearts.

After returning home, Xu Yiyi changed her wet clothes.

I couldn't wait to go back to my room to count the money.

I don't know if Xu Yinli really went to steal. He gave his family a large sum of money a while ago.

Today, another large bag of silver was stuffed into her boat.

After a quick count, there were a total of three hundred taels of silver.

After deducting the money for buying the boat, there was still about one hundred taels of silver left in the family, so she put aside the money Xu Yinli gave her.

……

At this moment, Xu Yinli, whom Xu Yiyi thought had escaped, was still floating on the sea.

The sun shone on the sea, creating ripples that almost made Xu Yinli's eyes blur.

I can only close my eyes and float quietly on the sea.

The sound of waves was constant around us, and seagulls were circling in the sky.

The bean-sized eyes were staring at Xu Yinli.

The next moment, it swooped down and pecked Xu Yinli's hair several times with its sharp beak.

"Go away, I'm not someone you can eat."

Xu Yinli waved his arms irritably, trying to drive away the seagulls above his head.

A large ship appeared in front of them not far away. The seagull seemed to be frightened and defecated on Xu Yinli's head before flying away quickly.

"Hahahahahahaha... Lao Xu, you're unlucky today!"

The people on the boat let down the rope and saw a pile of white shit on Xu Yinli's head.

He laughed out loud in a very unkind way.

"Get out of the way! If you hadn't scared the bird, would it have pulled me over the head?"

Xu Yinli impatiently washed the dirt off his head in the water, tied the rope around his waist and signaled the people above to pull him up.
