Zheng Baozhu explained that she showed up only now because she was too panicked when she fell into the lake and swam around without thinking.

He was rescued from another ice hole by a sister-in-law.

It was too cold at the time, so my sister-in-law quickly took me back home.

She took a hot bath and dried her clothes at her sister-in-law's house. When she came back she realized how much fuss everyone had made to save her.

Kang Min wondered, "We fell into the lake together, but when I wanted to rescue you, I couldn't find you."

Song Zhiting said: "When people are in an emergency, they will always find a way to save themselves. As long as Baozhu is fine, the process is not important."

The restaurant waiter first brought a bowl of ginger soup and said the food would be served soon.

Song Zhiting said that after dinner he would go to thank his sister-in-law who saved Zheng Baozhu.

Zheng Baozhu said that she bought a lot of New Year's goods for her sister-in-law as a thank you.

Song Zhiting insisted on thanking him in person, and Kang Min said, "Let's hurry back, otherwise, our family will worry."

Zheng Baozhu then asked: "You just said on the lake that you deceived me..."

Song Zhiting's face changed, and he quickly echoed Kang Min's words: "Ah...Kang Min is right, we have been away for three days, the children must miss us, let's hurry back."

He winked at Shen Jincheng again.

Kang Min said: "What could he possibly be hiding from you? The most he could be hiding is some private money."

Shen Jincheng followed up and said, “It’s not the end of the year, Zhiting has dividends, and he wants to buy a house quietly to give you a surprise.”

After making money from business, Zheng Baozhu's favorite thing to do was to buy a house. Hearing this, she was indeed very happy.

When Kang Min's parents heard that Zheng Baozhu had returned, they hurried over to visit her. Seeing that she was safe and sound, they finally put their minds at ease.

The waiter brought the food, and everyone was busy until now and hungry, so after eating, Shen Jincheng went to arrange a vehicle to go home.

…

Beijing City.

It was already dark. At the door of the Zheng family shop, Chen Lifang held her granddaughter and looked into the distance.

"Be good, Xiaoxue. Mom and Dad will be home soon."

Zheng Youlin said: "When I went out to deliver goods just now, I saw that the buses of Shen's company going on tours had all returned."

The clerk said, "Maybe the factory manager found another business opportunity to make money and delayed his return."

Chen Lifang thought it was possible, and said to Zheng Chengxue in her arms: "Mom will make a lot of money and buy a big house for Xiaoxue to live in."

It was not until eight o'clock in the evening that the shuttle bus arrived at the door of Zheng's shop.

Song Zhiting got out of the car carrying two big bags.

Chen Lifang came over, took the bag, and asked in reproach: "Why are you back so late? Didn't the others come back a long time ago?"

Song Zhiting said: "When Baozhu saw something good, she wanted to buy it for her parents, which delayed her for some time."

"There's nothing you can't buy in Beijing, and you have to bring a lot of bags home when you travel far away."

Although Chen Lifang said something strange, she had a bright smile on her face.

Zheng Baozhu got off the car and took out the clothes she bought for her parents from her bag and asked them to try them on.

"Dad, Mom, I bought a set of warm clothes for everyone in the family. They are fleece-lined and very warm. Come in and try them on."

Chen Lifang asked: "Have you bought it for your parents-in-law?"

Zheng Baozhu smiled and said, "Not a single one is left behind. Please go in and change."

Kang Min picked up a piece of warm clothing, felt the thin layer, but felt very warm inside, and asked, "Baozhu, this clothing is really nice. When did you go out to buy it? Why didn't you call me?"

Song Zhiting was also puzzled: "Wife, you bought so many clothes, it must be very tiring to carry them back by yourself, why didn't you ask me to help you carry them?"

Zheng Baozhu said: "You underestimate women who love shopping. This is nothing."

…

Song family.

When Wu Hongxia saw her son and daughter-in-law coming back with their grandchildren, she quickly stood up to greet them.

"Zhi Ting, are you okay?" Wu Hongxia checked her son's body.

"Mom, I'm fine."

"You called me without any reason today. After you hung up, I was very panicked. I always felt that something bad was going to happen."

Zheng Baozhu handed the bag to Wu Hongxia: "Mom, we had a lot of fun, but we are a little tired. These are the warm clothes I bought for my family. Please divide them according to the size."

Wu Hongxia remembered something: "By the way, Zhiting, your leader called you today and asked you to come back to the army. He said that he would allocate a house for you."

Song Zhiting said he understood.

When Zheng Baozhu heard this, she pulled Song Zhiting back to the house.

After Song Zhiting's suicide today, Zheng Baozhu has given up on raising the baby and living a carefree life alone.

So he said to Song Zhiting: "Let's remarry."

Song Zhiting was stunned: "Why did you think of this?"

"Wasn't the army going to give you a room? If we remarry, you can get a bigger yard."

Song Zhiting asked: "Do you want to live in the army? Will it be inconvenient to work?"

"It's always a good thing to be assigned a house. You can live in the army if you have something to do occasionally."

"If you don't live with me, there's no point in me having this house. It's nice to live at home. It's more lively with more people."

Zheng Baozhu slapped him and said, "Are you stupid? Houses in Beijing are so expensive, and the military family compound is even more expensive than you can buy with any money. Of course I want it. I will live there with you often."

"Okay then. I'll go back to the troops tomorrow morning to check."

"Let's go to the Civil Affairs Bureau tomorrow."

"The Civil Affairs Bureau is also closed for the holiday."

"Oh, let's do it after we go back to work after the New Year."

…

The next day, Song Zhiting went to the army and came back to tell Zheng Baozhu that the housing had been allocated.
