On November 30, 2007, Meng Xiangbin, an army officer, took his wife and children shopping in Wucheng District, Jinhua City.
Just when the three of them passed the Tongji Bridge, a woman who committed suicide suddenly jumped off the bridge, and after seeing this scene, Meng Xiangbin hurriedly handed the daughter in his arms to his wife and jumped off regardless of the danger.

The "Warrior" of Righteousness and Courage
When the rescuers successfully completed the rescue, Meng Xiangbin had already turned into a cold corpse, and his wife on the side lay on the corpse and cried bitterly.
This day was supposed to be the day when their family of three reunited, but they didn't expect her husband to pass away unexpectedly, and his wife Ye Qinghua couldn't accept the fact that her husband left, and rushed to the railing several times to jump into the river.
Just a day ago, Ye Qinghua came to Jinhua with her three-year-old daughter to visit her husband Meng Xiangbin, who served in the army.
When Meng Xiangbin wanted to jump into the river to rescue the woman who had committed suicide, Ye Qinghua also thought about holding her husband, hoping that he could consider his own conditions. But as a soldier, Meng Xiangbin always kept in mind the creed of serving the people, and Meng Xiangbin's military identity was constantly reminding him that he must fulfill his duties at this moment.
In order to reassure his wife, Meng Xiangbin repeatedly emphasized that he could swim, and after speaking, he jumped into the water, and after some struggle, Meng Xiangbin finally lifted the diving woman out of the water.
But Meng Xiangbin ignored that the outdoor temperature of this month's golden flower was close to zero, and the temperature in the water was even colder.
After rescuing the suicide woman ashore, Meng Xiangbin's body was already frozen and stiff, and he no longer had the strength to swim back to the shore.
The fatal blow of her husband's departure made Ye Qinghua fall into collapse several times, looking at the ignorant daughter in her arms, she was not sure how she would be able to shoulder the burden of the family in the future!
When the suicide woman learned the news of the sacrifice of her life-saving benefactor, she knelt in front of Ye Qinghua and begged for forgiveness. Looking at the woman who couldn't cry, Ye Qinghua finally chose to forgive, because she knew that her husband was a soldier, and his sacrifice stemmed from the responsibility of a soldier.
In fact, as early as when Ye Qinghua and her husband were together, Ye Qinghua's family had strongly objected to her being with the military, because the "military wife" not only had to bear the pain of long-term separation, but also had to bear unimaginable pressure.
Soldiers are unable to reunite outside the country all year round, and they also face many uncertain dangers when performing their missions, and this kind of unstable life can hardly bring people a sense of security.
However, the power of love is always great, Ye Qinghua still chose to accommodate and understand her husband, she understood the particularity of her husband's profession as a soldier, so she bravely married Meng Xiangbin, and after marriage, she shouldered the heavy responsibility of raising her daughter alone.
How are Meng Xiangbin's wife and daughter doing?
When Meng Xiangbin's heroic deeds spread, people were moved by his righteous and courageous behavior, and countless local citizens spontaneously went to the scene of the incident to mourn.
After the funeral, Ye Qinghua also decided to pack up his mood and start again, taking on the responsibility of raising his daughter and taking care of his in-laws.
Under the influence of her husband Meng Xiangbin, Ye Qinghua chose to get up from difficulties and gradually grew into a well-deserved "military wife......
In 2009, Meng Xiangbin was posthumously awarded the honor of "Touching Chinese Characters", and it was Meng Xiangbin's five-year-old daughter Meng Shiyan who took the stage to accept the award.
The former Meng Shiyan also complained about her father, in order to save the lives of strangers, she did not hesitate to give up the happiness of her wife and daughter and her own life, and Meng Shiyan could not understand her father's behavior.
On a show, Meng Shiyan even said: I hate his leap!
It wasn't until she walked on the podium and listened to everyone's praise for her father that she suddenly felt extremely proud in her heart, and gradually understood that her father was a real hero.
It was also from this time that a small seed was planted in the young Meng Shiyan's heart, and she vowed to become a person like her father, a soldier who served the motherland and the people.
After Meng Xiangbin's sacrifice, Ye Qinghua and Meng Shiyan, as the families of the martyrs, also received special care from the troops.
Ye Qinghua was arranged to work in the army, and she decided to continue to fulfill her husband's unfulfilled last wish and contribute her own strength to the people and the country.
In these years, in addition to taking care of his daughter, Ye Qinghua's most important work is to find relatives for the martyrs of the Anti-Japanese War, and by April this year, through Ye Qinghua's efforts, more than 500 martyrs of the Anti-Japanese War have been able to return to their roots.
In 2022, Meng Shiyan took the college entrance examination and was successfully admitted to her father's alma mater, the People's Liberation Army Information Engineering University.
Meng Shiyan vowed to become a person like her father in the future, work hard to learn Xi professional knowledge in school, use her ability to repay the motherland and the people, and be a useful talent to society.
Now Meng Xiangbin's wife and daughter have a new life sustenance, although Meng Xiangbin is gone forever, his spirit has been inherited in his wife and daughter.
I believe that under the influence of Meng Xiangbin, Ye Qinghua and Meng Shiyan can get what they want, and Meng Xiangbin will definitely feel extremely relieved when he sees this scene in the sky!
