Chapter 43 Beating the Mandarin Ducks
This river is very famous in the entire Yongfeng Commune, and the water source for everyone's food, clothing, housing and transportation is provided by the river.

The villagers can't tell exactly where the upper reaches of the river originate. Anyway, it is said that it starts from the commune above and goes down for a very long river bank.

There happened to be a lot of rain some time ago, so the river water rose a lot. In addition to being convenient for the villagers to use, small fish and shrimps often appeared.

The brothers at home are all naughty boys, and Gu Wan thought of coming over here to take a look after hearing them talk about them.

Going down along the dam, you can see a few large rocks on the river bank from time to time. Villagers usually wash clothes there.

As soon as he turned the corner, Gu Wan saw Qi Bin squatting on a rock by the river, leaning forward and scooping something out of the water with one hand.

Seeing that he was very happy, Qi Bin, who was squatting, stood up.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew and Qi Bin's body swayed.

It happened that his legs were not straight yet, and he fell into the water...

The Shulin brothers were extremely anxious, and Gu Wan also felt a little anxious when he saw them.

"Qi Bin."

"Qi Bin, how are you?"

However, they were still several meters away from the river, and the ground below the dam was slippery and rocky, so they couldn't run over quickly.

At this moment, the two brothers only felt a figure flash before their eyes. Their sister didn't run but jumped down directly.

After a few jumps, Gu Wan was already standing by the river neatly. His speed was so fast that the Shu Lin brothers had no time to react.

Fortunately, the water in this section of the river is not turbulent, and for this reason, most of the villagers wash their clothes here.

Qi Bin had just fallen into the water, and Gu Wan came down very quickly. The key point was that the water in this area was not very deep.

Ahem, Qi Bin was probably just frightened for a moment. I wonder if he stood up, the water would only reach his waist at most.

Anyway, when Qi Bin was still struggling in the water, Gu Wan had already reached the shore and picked him up with one hand.

Only then did Gu Wan understand why Qi Bin looked so weak just now and was blown into the water by a gust of wind.

Qi Bin's face was as pale as paper, and more importantly, he had one hand on his right knee.

He was probably injured there, but it was an internal injury and his willpower was amazing, so it couldn't be seen from the outside.

The reason why Qi Bin stayed here was just an excuse to recuperate, and his main purpose was to carry out an important mission.

I suddenly received the news this morning that there was progress, so I made the impromptu decision to go out.

On the surface, he lived here alone, and except for the new friends he made in the Gu family, he was completely in the dark about everything else.

In fact, someone from the Red Flag Brigade was also in private contact with him.

It was because there were new breakthroughs and gains that that person gave the important information to Qi Bin.

It's just that Qi Bin is actually a germaphobe, and he accidentally had close contact with Mi Tian when he was outside just now.

Qi Bin was almost feeling sick to death, but in order to confuse others, he had to pretend nothing had happened.

Now, having finally escaped from the sight of suspicious people, he quickly went to the river to wash his hands.

It is only when something is accidentally dropped that one will try to retrieve it.

It was fine originally, but maybe because I stood up too quickly, I felt a piercing pain in my knee.

That's why he was so weak that he fell into the river when the wind blew.

But at that time he was feeling extremely uncomfortable, he seemed to have lost consciousness and his limbs were out of control.

Qi Bin could feel himself falling into the water, the water flowing over his body, his ears, nose and throat...

The brain actually gave the order to stand up, but for some reason Qi Bin couldn't move at all. Fortunately, Gu Wan arrived in time and pulled him out of the water.

And for some unknown reason, the moment Gu Wan reached out to pull him, Qi Bin regained consciousness.

Naturally, Qi Bin was very grateful to Gu Wan for saving his life.

Gu Wan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's not that serious, just a handy help."

Gu Wan directly hinted to him to go and see the river, but in fact the water here is not deep.

Qi Bin just smiled and said nothing. He couldn't tell anyone about the out-of-control feeling he felt at that time.

His subconscious mind told him that if Gu Wan hadn't pulled him back in time, he would have regained his consciousness.

The consequences are probably unimaginable.

Although Qi Bin regained consciousness, he felt a little weak physically. Fortunately, there were two laborers nearby.

Although Qi Bin had only stayed at the Gu family for one night, the boys in the family all liked him very much.

The main reason is that Qi Bin also came from the city, was knowledgeable, and was not as arrogant as those educated youth from big cities.

Besides, Qi Bin is a generous person. He gave Gu Hai a meat ticket yesterday.

Gu Hai was very happy. He could buy some delicious food for the girl he liked.

Ahem, the girl he liked, actually, only Ye Meihua thought that no one in the village knew about their secret contact.

The Red Flag Brigade is so small, especially since the brothers grew up together. Could anyone hide something from the others?

Including the elders of the Gu family, especially Old Lady Gu, they all noticed something.

Just for this matter, Gu Hai did not take the initiative to take this step and the girl did not express her opinion, so it is certainly not convenient for others to get involved.

Besides, Old Lady Gu could more or less guess what the female educated youth was thinking. She couldn't bear the hardship and wanted to seek help from the villagers.

But it is a bit difficult to get her to willingly marry a countryman.

The two of them did not break that layer of window paper, and Mrs. Gu did not want to be the stick that broke up the couple, as long as they did not do anything out of the ordinary.

Let young people do whatever they want.

Of course, Gu Hai didn't take advantage of others. He helped Qi Bin with some housework, and the meat ticket was his reward.

When Gu Hai got the ticket, he smiled so hard that his teeth were showing, and no one else could bear to watch.

Especially after going through so many things, the eldest brother Gu Shan wanted to ask: "Brother, buying meat requires money in addition to tickets, did you know?"

Forget it. Look at his silly look. The guy doesn’t have a penny on him anyway, so why would he try to be attentive to him?

What the Gu brothers didn't know was that Gu Hai wasn't stupid either. He would hand over some of the money he earned from work points at the end of each year.

So he was penniless, but Ye Meihua was not, as she was an educated youth who had been working in the countryside for several years.

Ye Meihua had some money on her, she just didn't have a ticket. After she bought the meat, she wanted to take it to Gu's house openly to thank Gu Hai for taking care of her.

Of course, mentioning these things is going off topic. Anyway, all the brothers in the Gu family like Qi Bin very much.

Knowing that he was exhausted, Gu Lin offered to carry him back.

Without waiting for the other party to agree, Gu Lin carried Qi Bin on his back and walked forward.

Although he is thin, he works frequently and has good physical strength.
