It wasn't until his daughter was one month old that Meng Xiangbin rushed to his wife's side and stayed with them for two days.
In 2007, Meng Xiangbin, who had been busy with work, rarely got a chance to take a day off. His family was also very happy. He rushed home to reunite with his wife and daughter. On November 30, Meng Xiangbin took his wife, daughter and mother to the city for shopping. , I wanted to go home after eating outside, and the family walked happily on the street. But the happiness was soon broken. Before the family walked a few steps on the street, they heard someone shouting for help: "Someone jumped from the bridge."
There were many people on the bridge at that time, but no one wanted to rescue them. The woman who jumped off the bridge, as a member of the Communist Party, Meng Xiangbin could not be indifferent to such a scene like others.

Meng Xiangbin swam towards the girl with all his strength, even though Meng Xiangbin took off his heavy clothes. Outerwear, but most winter underwear is thermal underwear, which brings great resistance to Meng Xiangbin.
The river water slapped Meng Xiangbin mercilessly, and the current and cold devoured his strength mercilessly.

If the lifeboat had not arrived in time, both of them might have drowned due to lack of physical strength. With the help of another enthusiastic member of the public, the girl was successfully rescued.
At this time, Meng Xiangbin was exhausted and just said: "I can't do it anymore." He didn't even have the strength to grab the lifeguard's outstretched hand and sank to the bottom of the river.
