Married to the army by mistake, abstinent boss becomes addicted to pampering his wife

Chapter 271 A dead woman's mouth, a devil's lie.
Qian Ling chased after Wen Jingrui to the gate of the compound with a scarf before finally catching up with him.

"Dr. Wen, you forgot your scarf!"

Wen Jingrui turned to look at the oil paper bag in her hand and said, "I don't need this scarf either, why don't you take it?"

Qian Ling was stunned for a moment. By the time she came to her senses and was about to refuse, Wen Jingrui had already ridden away on his bicycle.

She had no choice but to take the scarf back and tell Jiang Moli what Wen Jingrui had said.

"Then you can take it."

Jiang Moli took the scarf out of the bag and wrapped it around Qian Ling's neck.

After wrapping it around her neck, she stroked the soft rabbit fur and said with a smile, "This scarf is quite warm, and the color suits you well. Wear it."

Qian Ling hurriedly said, "I'm not familiar with Dr. Wen, so it wouldn't be right to accept his things for no reason. This scarf doesn't look cheap."

Thinking that people in this era are conservative in their thinking, Jiang Moli said, "Then find some time to return it to him."

Qian Ling nodded, folded the scarf neatly, and put it back in the paper bag.

Yang Liqiong handed the grilled lamb skewers to Jiang Moli, saying, "Here you go."

"Thank you, Qiongqiong."

Jiang Moli accepted it with a smile.

The mutton, about the size of a thumb, is skewered on bamboo sticks, grilled until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and coated with a thin layer of cumin and chili powder, making it so fragrant that it makes your mouth water.

Jiang Moli opened her mouth to eat, but suddenly remembered something. She looked up and looked around before she saw Jiang Dahai sitting alone on the steps of the doorway.

Li Hongying's passing had a significant impact on Jiang Dahai, who has been in a depressed mood and has lost a lot of weight.

Jiang Moli walked over with the meat skewers. "Dad, have some lamb skewers, they're freshly grilled."

Jiang Dahai shook his head. "You eat yours."

"Here you go, listen to me. Deputy Regiment Commander Yang and the others are grilling it; there's plenty of meat for today."

Jiang Dahai then took the lamb skewers and started eating.

Meanwhile, seeing Jiang Moli give the lamb skewers to Jiang Dahai, Yang Liqiong took a few more skewers from the vegetable basket and placed them on the grill.

Jiang Moli took her beer to Jiang Dahai's side and drank with him.

“Dad, don’t think too much. You have to keep going even if you’re alone. If you really don’t want to walk anymore, just ride your bike.”

Jiang Dahai sighed, "I also bear some responsibility for how your Aunt Hongying has come to this."

Jiang Moli took out a handful of roasted peanuts and casually said while peeling them, "Didn't I tell you, if you can blame someone else, try not to blame yourself?"

"After Xiaoqing returned to Lianhua Village, she asked your Aunt Hongying for money once, saying she wanted to repair the old house so she would have a place to stay. Your Aunt Hongying didn't give it to her. After Xiaoqing's accident, she felt very guilty, thinking that if she had given Xiaoqing the money to repair the house, Xiaoqing wouldn't have gone astray."

Jiang Moli handed the shelled peanuts to Jiang Dahai: "Aunt Hongying never understood until her death that Wei Qing ended up like this not because of money, but because of greed. Today she wants a house, tomorrow she wants a household registration, and in the future she will want a job and other things. She is always greedy and never satisfied."

When Jiang Dahai spoke of Li Hongying, he was actually referring to himself.

This almost became a source of anxiety for him.

After all, he sent his stepdaughter back to the countryside and stood idly by while she was in dire straits.

But his daughter's words undoubtedly put him at ease.

A short while later, Lu Dezhao invited Jiang Dahai into his home for tea, while Jiang Moli returned to the oven.

Yang Liqiong handed her the freshly grilled lamb skewers, saying, "They're freshly grilled, be careful they're hot."

Jiang Moli took the lamb skewers and said to Yang Liqiong with a smile, "Drink less alcohol, take care of your liver."

My little heart?
Yang Liqiong stared at her without saying a word.

Sitting next to her, Lu Tingting retorted, "How dare you talk about others? You're the one who drank the most."

Jiang Moli turned to look at Lu Tingting and clicked her tongue, saying, "You were the most talkative person there."

Lu Tingting snorted, "I have a mouth, I can say what I want, it's none of your business..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Moli stuffed a lamb skewer into his mouth.

Lu Tingting snorted and began to eat the lamb skewers with relish.

"It smells so good, it tastes so good." Yang Liqiong glanced at the two of them, took a few more meat skewers from the vegetable basket, and put them on the stove to grill.

Jiang Moli, who was looking for some peace and quiet, poured herself a beer and started drinking with Yang Liqiong and Chen Lan.

Around 9 o'clock, Chen Lan's husband came to pick her up to go home, and Yang Liqiong also planned to leave with Chen Lan.

Jiang Moli originally intended to see the two of them out.

The moment he stood up, the effects of the alcohol kicked in, and he staggered.

Yang Liqiong reached out to support her, "How are you? Are you drunk?"

"Not drunk."

Judging from her flushed cheeks and hazy, watery eyes, she was clearly quite drunk.

Yang Liqiong said with concern, "Let me help you back to your room to rest. It's cold, don't catch a cold."

Jiang Moli said in a soft voice, "I can't walk, I need someone to carry me."

He smiled and opened his arms wide.

Helpless, Yang Liqiong turned around, half-squatted down, and let her lie on her back.

Chen Lan found it amusing, thinking to herself that Jiang Moli was truly drunk.

Lu Tingting stared at Yang Liqiong's back as she carried Jiang Moli, munching on her lamb skewers with gritted teeth.

That wretched woman, so delicate and spoiled, she always needs to be carried when she drinks.

"Everybody, I'm back!"

As soon as she entered the room, Jiang Moli waved her hands happily and greeted everyone inside.

Seeing Yang Liqiong carry her in, An Hui quickly put down her needlework. "Did she drink too much again?"

Jiang Moli kicked her legs. "You know I've had too much to drink, aren't you going to make me some honey water? Put in lots of honey, I want it sweet. Thank you, Mom, I love you~"

As he spoke, he made a heart shape with his hands towards An Hui.

An Hui was both annoyed and amused. She asked Ma Hongmei to make honey water for Jiang Moli, while she followed her to Jiang Moli's bedroom.

Chen Lan, standing at the door, was both surprised and impressed by the way her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law interacted.

No wonder Jiang Moli gets along so well with her mother-in-law; she can't even do that with her own mother.

Lu Tingting entered the room while eating lamb skewers, secretly scoffing in her heart: "That damned woman's mouth, she's a devil who deceives people."

Jiang Dahai hadn't expected his daughter to behave this way at her in-laws' house. Feeling both embarrassed and guilty, he simply said goodbye and left, wanting to avoid seeing her and getting annoyed.

After escorting Jiang Moli back to her room, Yang Liqiong and Chen Lan left.

An Hui personally saw the two out.

After drinking the honey water, Jiang Moli tilted her head and fell asleep.

Ma Hongmei helped her take off her military coat and shoes, covered her with a blanket, and then took an empty cup and went out first.

Lu Tingting sat on the edge of the bed, staring at Jiang Moli's fair and rosy cheeks, her gaze quickly moving down to Jiang Moli's slender and snow-white neck.

Some time ago, An Hui gave each of her three daughters-in-law a gold-inlaid jade pendant.

Her mother's had a silver chain attached, which she planned to give to her when she turned 20.

It seems that Jiang Moli's pendant doesn't have a matching necklace yet.

Or maybe I should just buy a necklace for that dead woman as a birthday present.

That woman's neck is so thin, she probably needs to buy a shorter necklace.

Thinking it over, Lu Tingting wrapped her arms around Jiang Moli's neck, preparing to roughly measure her.

"Tingting, what are you doing?!"

Lu Tingting turned around and saw An Hui, Lu Dezhao, and Ma Hongmei standing outside the door, staring at her with horrified expressions.

Lu Tingting glanced at the hand gripping Jiang Moli's neck and hurriedly withdrew it: "I didn't, I didn't, please let me explain..."
