She wondered, "Isn't Zhou Gou just a company commander? How could he save so much money in four years?"
What Zhou Gou hadn't told them was that he had been promoted to battalion commander before he went on the secret mission. With his current position, he was entitled to a quota for accompanying his family to the military. He had originally planned to apply for the quota, but the commander suddenly assigned him to carry out a secret mission. The details of the mission were unknown, and he was not allowed to contact the outside world or inform his family.
He hadn't even had time to write a letter home before he went off to carry out his mission. For the past four years, he had been saving his salary, and with the rewards he received for meritorious service and the reward for his near-death experience last time, Zhou Gou's savings were far more than that.
After all, he spent a lot of money buying things when he came back.
Wang Zhaodi was unaware of these things. She recovered from the unreal feeling and looked at the savings in her passbook and the large sums of money in her bank account with a determined gaze.
No matter what, she cannot divorce Zhou Gou!

Zhou Huai paused for a moment, then nodded somewhat awkwardly.
Upon hearing Zhou Huai's voice, Zhou Yang and Zhou Miao quickly ran out and stood on tiptoe to see what Zhou Huai was holding.
It smells so sweet and fragrant!
Zhou Huai smiled and gave one piece to each of Zhou Miao and Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang glanced at his own food, then at Zhou Miao's, and lost all interest in snatching it from her. He then began to happily munch on the pastry in his own hand.
"So delicious! It's fragrant and sweet!" Zhou Miao immediately expressed her opinion.
Zhou Huai swallowed hard. "Is it that delicious?"
Zhou Yang tilted his head back and said, "Sister Xiao Huai, why don't you try it and you'll see! It's so delicious!"
Zhou Huai hesitated, looking down at the pastries in his hand, even though he was extremely tempted, he didn't take them.
Mom will definitely take the pastries with her; if she takes too little, she'll scold her.
