After Zheng Baozhu left, Tang Youyou acted like a hostess. She cleaned the house, prepared dinner and waited for Song Zhiting to come back to eat.
However, Song Zhiting was very busy and did not come back for lunch. He also had dinner in the cafeteria.
Today Tang Youyou also went to the seafood processing factory and bought seafood from fishermen every day. She settled the payment on the spot. After Zheng Baozhu left, everyone asked Ding Peizhi if she would go to work as usual today.
Tang Youyou said: "Of course I have to go to work. The factory will not stop operating just because one person is missing. I will pay for the seafood."
Ding Peizhi said: "I will discuss with the fishermen and pay them a day later, after the goods are shipped and the payment is received."
The military wives also agreed.
Yang Dacheng came to the factory to deliver goods every other day and brought back the payment on the same day.
As they were talking, Yang Dacheng came and asked Ding Peizhi if she needed him to buy some packing boxes.
Tang Youyou said: "You came at the right time. Give me yesterday's payment. I need to pay for the seafood."
Yang Dacheng said: "I have already given the money to Director Zheng."
Tang Youyou frowned: "How could she be so selfish? She took all the payment away before leaving. Isn't this deliberately making it impossible for the factory to operate?"
No one responded to her because everyone knew that the seafood processing factory belonged to Zheng Baozhu and all the people had been squeezed out, so how could they leave the money behind?
In the end, Claire gave the fishermen the money for the seafood.
…
Midnight.
A small boat was rowed from the island to the shore.
Near the train station, inside the guesthouse.
Zheng Baozhu was sleeping soundly when suddenly, a dark shadow climbed into the house through the window.
The black shadow helped Zheng Baozhu cover the quilt that had been kicked off, got on the bed, and hugged Zheng Baozhu who was sleeping soundly.
Zheng Baozhu skillfully rolled into the arms of the black shadow.
…
At daybreak, Zheng Baozhu stretched and got up.
Song Zhiting came in from outside, holding fried dough sticks and soy milk in his hand.
"When did you come?"
Putting the fried dough sticks and soy milk on the bedside table, Song Zhiting said, "Be more alert when you go to bed next time. If someone ties you up and puts you in a sack in the middle of the night, you won't even know it."
Zheng Baozhu laughed and said, "You came in the middle of the night, so it must be you. If it were someone else, I would know it as soon as they got close to me."
Looking at the smile on Song Zhiting's lips, I knew he didn't believe it.
Song Zhiting poured water into the basin and asked Zheng Baozhu to wash up.
Zheng Baozhu asked while drinking soy milk: "Can't I stay in the guesthouse for a few days? Do I have to go back to Beijing?"
Song Zhiting brought the fried dough stick to Zheng Baozhu's mouth and Zheng Baozhu took a bite.
"Her identity is very dangerous. I would be concerned if you stay."
Zheng Baozhu nodded: "Okay, I support your work, you should also pay more attention to safety, my performance is not bad, right?"
Song Zhiting touched her head and said, "Your performance was perfect. You successfully turned me into a heartless man."
"Your acting skills are not good and need to be improved."
Zheng Baozhu had to catch a train, so in order to avoid being exposed, Song Zhiting did not send her to the train station.
…
Beijing City.
Chen Lifang was very happy to see her daughter coming back: "Didn't you say you wouldn't come back? Why didn't you call first and ask your dad to pick you up?"
Zheng Baozhu asked: "Where is my dad?"
"He didn't know you were coming back. He went out of town yesterday."
Chen Lifang went to the kitchen to cook noodles for Zheng Baozhu. There were already customers in the store buying things, so Zheng Baozhu helped sell a few items.
Chen Lifang brought the noodles to Zheng Baozhu: "Eat quickly, I'll watch the shop."
Zheng Baozhu said while eating noodles: "Business in our store is really good!"
Chen Lifang said proudly: "Of course, especially the seafood we buy from you, not only does it sell well in our store, but other merchants also sell well when they buy from us."
Chen Lifang leaned close to Zheng Baozhu's ear and whispered, "Otherwise, how could we have the money to buy a courtyard house?"
…
During the break, Song Sicheng came out to play games with his classmates.
He saw someone waving at him and calling his name not far away.
After taking a closer look, Song Sicheng immediately ran away excitedly.
Throwing himself into Zheng Baozhu's arms, Song Sicheng said happily, "Mom, are you here to pick me up? I still have a few days before my final exam!"
Zheng Baozhu picked up Song Sicheng and spun him around twice: "Mom missed you so much that she couldn't wait until summer vacation to see you, so she came early."
Song Sicheng's eyes were moist, and he leaned on Zheng Baozhu's shoulder: "I miss my mother too."
When classmates saw this, they came over to ask, and Song Sicheng proudly introduced to them that this was his mother.
"Song Sicheng, your mother is so beautiful, just like a fairy from heaven!"
Hearing the children's praise, Zheng Baozhu felt very happy and took out candies from her bag and shared them with the children.
The children were very happy to get the candies and they all envied Song Sicheng for having such a beautiful and generous mother.
The mother and son chatted until the bell rang for class, and Song Sicheng left reluctantly.
"Hurry up and go to class. We can meet at home after school. Mom will make you something delicious."
…
Wu Hongxia and Mr. Song were also very happy to see Zheng Baozhu come back.
"Your sister-in-law and Zhimei are on night shift today. I'll go wake them up. Zhimei misses you so much and keeps asking why you haven't come back yet."
Zheng Baozhu smiled and stopped them: "Mom, let them rest and call them after the meal is ready. Zhimei must be thinking about the spicy noodles I sent her."
Wu Hongxia also laughed and said, "Of course not. The spicy noodles you made are spicy and fragrant. Zhimei said that eating them is the most refreshing when working the night shift."
Mr. Song nodded: "Not only Zhimei likes to eat it, I like to eat it too. Baozhu, did you bring it back?"
