Volume 2, Chapter 310: Relying on it

Wear thick clothes in winter, and the cotton-padded clothes will sink to the ground once they are soaked in the water. It is difficult for a person to survive in the water, let alone save just one person.

There were several men nearby who were fetching water and drinking water for their animals. They all looked at it, but none of them entered the water to save others.

A woman washing clothes begged them to save her, but they shook their heads and said they couldn't swim.

If people don't know how to swim, those people can't force them to go into the water to save others.

Dalang saw that the woman who had fallen into the water was about to be swept away by the water. If she didn't save her, she would really lose her life. If he didn't save her, he would not be stable in this life.

So he got off the carriage and began to take off his cotton-padded clothes.

The coachman stopped him and said, "Young master, you can't get out, let me go!"

This coachman is a servant he bought after he came to the capital. He is quite old. It is so cold that his body and bones may not be able to bear it.

"Look at the car!" Dalang said and jumped off the bridge.

The cold river water made him shiver and his legs cramped. He struggled and sank down.

"Ah! It's broken, it's going to sink!" People on the shore exclaimed, and their hearts were lifted.

Dalang drank two mouthfuls of cold water, which aroused his desire to live. He kicked hard twice, which relieved the cramps, and swam hard towards the woman.

Fortunately, the woman grabbed the ice inside and stuck her head out.

She did not continue to be washed away, so Dalang saved much effort and swam over, dragged her and swam to the shore.

The woman hugged his waist and almost dragged him into the water again. Fortunately, the water on the shore was shallow and he was tall enough to reach the bottom. After swimming a few more times, he dragged the woman to the shore and put her down.

"Young Master! Hurry, put it on quickly!" The coachman put the cotton robe on him, "Hurry up and change clothes!"

The old man put on his robe and walked towards the embankment.

"Sir!" Someone grabbed the corner of his clothes.

It was the dripping woman. She was soaked all over. She had pretty features and a pale face. She had a frail and embarrassed beauty that made people feel pity for her at first sight.

I felt pity for the woman who was delicate and frail, so I kowtowed tremblingly: "Thank you, Master, for saving my life!"

Dalang was about to freeze to death, so he said "You're welcome", took out his clothes, and hurried up.

Unexpectedly, the woman crawled a few steps to catch up and cried: "Young master can't just leave like this!"

Dalang turned around and said, "You're really welcome."

The woman murmured: "Sir, you and I were intimately connected, and then you left like this. How can I survive?"

Dalang was stunned for a moment, a little confused, "I am wearing clothes, and you are also wearing thick cotton clothes, how can there be any skin-to-skin contact?"

The woman cried loudly: "But we have done that in front of everyone. How can I meet people and survive?"

Many onlookers had already gathered around, pointing and talking.

The woman who shouted for help said: "Yes, after hugging her, she has lost her reputation. It's better for me to marry her. She is beautiful, virtuous, and very capable."

The men looked at the woman's charming and boneless look and couldn't help but regret not going into the water to save her. If he was the one who saved the woman, then he would be the one holding the beauty back now.

Dalang understood that he was being relied upon, and his face turned cold, "I already have a wife and children."

The woman said pitifully: "However, the little girl's reputation is now ruined and she can no longer marry. I am willing to be the master's concubine and pledge myself to repay your life-saving grace."

The crowd booed: "I pledged myself to save my life. This is a beautiful talk!"

"This young master's chivalrous heart is not in vain!"

"A hero saves a beauty, which makes others envious!"

"Little brother, please agree, what a great thing!"

Dalang Jun raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at the woman, and said mockingly: "I saved you, so you have to follow me, right?"
