After coming out, Captain Zhao asked, "You gave all the money to the old man. How are you going to explain this to your wife when you go back?"

Song Zhiting started the car: "Tell the truth."

After returning home, Song Zhiting gave the jade bracelet to Zheng Baozhu.

Ding Peizhi smiled and said, "Captain Song really loves his wife. He buys her things every now and then. It's useless for me to be jealous this time. This jade bracelet looks like a good item. It must be worth a lot of money."

Song Zhiting recounted the story of buying the bracelet.

"I don't understand these things, but the old man insisted on giving it to me. His grandson is still in the hospital. I couldn't take his things for free, so I gave him my salary."

Ding Peizhi exclaimed: "So expensive!"

Zheng Baozhu opened the box, took out the jade bracelet and put it on her hand: "There is enough savings at home for us to live. The jade bracelet is very beautiful. It can help the elderly solve their current difficulties. This is the greatest value of the bracelet."

Seeing that Zheng Baozhu understood, Song Zhiting felt relieved.

…

There were only three people working before. In order to increase production and earn more money, Ding Peizhi and Li Na did not take a break.

Now that there are two more people, Zheng Baozhu gives them a day off on the weekend.

After getting her salary, she had to buy some delicious food for the children, so Ding Peizhi asked Zheng Baozhu to go shopping together.

The two of them each took their own children and set off on the ferry together.

After a round of shopping, both adults and children returned home with a lot of things.

Zheng Baozhu said: "I'm tired after going home and don't want to cook. Besides, there's no food in the cafeteria after dinner time, so I might as well eat in the restaurant today."

The three children all applauded, and Ding Peizhi also agreed.

…

The restaurant in Zhaozhuang Market was not big. Five people went in and the proprietress warmly invited them to sit down.

The signature dish of this restaurant is wontons. After ordering 5 bowls of wontons, Qiu Xiaoqiang saw someone selling sugar men passing by outside and asked Ding Peizhi to buy some for him. Ding Peizhi had no choice but to take her two sons out.

At this time, a man came into the store with a little girl of five or six years old.

The lady boss said, "Brother, come in and sit down. What would you like to eat? We have stir-fried vegetables and wontons."

The man did not listen to the boss lady's words. He walked straight to Zheng Baozhu's table and sat down before saying to Zheng Baozhu, "Is it okay for me to sit here?"

Zheng Baozhu frowned slightly.

Suddenly, the jade bracelet on her hand broke, fell to the ground and broke into four pieces.

Song Sicheng quickly squatted down and picked up the broken bracelet: "Mom, the bracelet is broken, what should I do?"

Zheng Baozhu took out a handkerchief and wrapped the broken jade bracelet.

The man said, "I know a bracelet repair shop. I can take you there and get it fixed."

It is said that jade can ward off disasters, but the fact that the jade bracelet broke for no apparent reason gave Zheng Baozhu a bad feeling.

Holding the things she bought, she took Song Sicheng's hand and said to the proprietress, "Don't cook our wontons yet. I'll go out and buy something and come back to eat."

…

The two Qiu brothers had already bought the candy figures. When Ding Peizhi was about to ask her what she was doing, Zheng Baozhu grabbed Ding Peizhi's hand and said, "Sister Ding, I remembered that there is one important thing I haven't bought yet. Please go with me first."

They walked for a while, but Ding Peizhi didn't see Zheng Baozhu want to buy anything.

"Baozhu, which stall is the item you want to buy?"

Zheng Baozhu said: "The man in the restaurant gives people a bad feeling. I don't want to eat in the same place with him. Let's walk around first and then go back after he leaves."

Anyway, there was nothing to do, and things at the market were still cheap when the market was about to start, so Ding Peizhi bought some snacks for the children.

…

Zheng Baozhu bought two strings of candied haws and ate them while walking with Song Sicheng.

Suddenly, there was a commotion among the crowd and everyone ran in one direction.

Zheng Baozhu took a look and saw that everyone was heading towards the restaurant where they had just eaten.

Ding Peizhi also wanted to go and watch the fun, but Zheng Baozhu pulled her back: "We have three children with us, so we don't want them to get bumped into. These people will discuss it later, so we just listen here."

After a while, the onlookers returned and everyone described in vivid detail what had happened over there.

It turned out that in the restaurant, a man suddenly stabbed a woman who was also eating there with a knife.

The man was subdued by the restaurant owner and passers-by.

The crowd made way for her and Zheng Baozhu saw someone carrying an injured woman covered in blood.

Everyone was talking about it.

"Is there any hatred between the two?"

"They didn't know each other at all. The woman was Cuihua from our village. They just went to the restaurant to have a meal. The man sat down at her table and without saying a word, he pulled out a knife and stabbed her."

"The man was from the next village. His wife ran away with someone else. When he saw a pretty woman, he would go up to her and harass her. He was beaten several times.

I thought he had behaved himself, but he came to the market again."

"This Cuihua is really unlucky. Her family just sold a pig today. She was thinking of going to the market to have a good meal, but she encountered something like this. I don't know if the money from selling the pig is enough for her to treat her injuries."

"She was stabbed several times. You can see how much blood she was bleeding. She's lucky to be alive."

Listening to what everyone said, Ding Peizhi and Zheng Baozhu looked at each other, still feeling frightened.

Zheng Baozhu asked: "Is that man with a little girl of five or six years old?"

"Yes, this person did not consider the child at all. The child was terrified and will definitely have psychological trauma in the future."

After hearing this, Zheng Baozhu was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat.

Ding Peizhi was also very scared. This man was the one who was in the store just now.

If Zheng Baozhu hadn't asked her to come out and stay in the restaurant to eat, would they be the ones who got hurt?

Thinking that the children might be hurt, Ding Peizhi couldn't help but shiver, holding the hands of the two children and said, "Don't eat, let's go home and cook."

Zheng Baozhu also nodded nervously, and the five of them hurried back.

…

After coming back and making a simple meal, Zheng Baozhu felt weak all over and lay down on the bed to rest.

I slept until evening.

Seeing that Zheng Baozhu was still asleep, Song Sicheng put steamed buns in the pot.

After a while, Song Sicheng went to call Zheng Baozhu to get up.

After shaking a few times, Zheng Baozhu woke up in a daze.

Seeing Zheng Baozhu’s blushing face, Song Sicheng reached out his little hand and touched her forehead.

Sizzling hot!

Hurry up and go next door to call Ding Peizhi.

Ding Peizhi came over and saw that it was a high fever, so she quickly carried Zheng Baozhu on her back and went to the army's medical room.

…

Song Zhiting got the news and ran all the way to the infirmary. He saw Zheng Baozhu lying on the bed with an IV drip. He nervously checked her body for injuries. Seeing no external injuries, he asked the military doctor, "What happened to my wife?"

The military doctor said: "I have already given him a fever-reducing injection. As long as the fever goes down, it will be fine."

Ding Peizhi told Song Zhiting what happened at the market: "Baozhu was frightened. At night, carry her out and call her back to her soul."

Seeing Song Zhiting's nervous look, Zheng Baozhu took out the handkerchief wrapped with the broken bracelet from her pocket and put it into Song Zhiting's hand: "The jade bracelet you bought for me saved me from a disaster."
