Chapter 292 Giving Gifts
During this period, Hong Kong was at its economic peak and prosperous, and it was an Eden that many mainlanders longed for.

He Ming's status as a Hong Kong businessman is something Meng Wei can easily leverage.

Perhaps to prove her excellence, after He Ming extended an invitation to Jiang Moli, she casually remarked to Lu Cheng with a hint of boastfulness:

"Third Brother, after the New Year, I will go to Hong Kong with Ah Ming to register our marriage and then move to Hong Kong."

Jiang Moli said with a hint of regret, "Then won't it be difficult for us to see each other again in the future?"

Who wants to see you?

Meng Wei smiled lightly but didn't respond, while He Ming started making polite remarks:

"Mrs. Lu, you are welcome to visit Hong Kong sometime. Xiaowei and I will definitely treat you well."

Jiang Moli nodded with a smile: "Great! Mr. He is handsome and rich, and he and Meng Wei are a perfect match. Since you two are getting married soon, I'll give you a pair of dragon and phoenix gold bracelets as a wedding gift."

Across the street is a gold jewelry counter, where many citizens are buying gold and silver jewelry.

Hearing that Jiang Moli was so wealthy and powerful, everyone looked over.

A pair of dragon and phoenix gold bracelets would weigh at least 60 grams, and at the current gold price, they would cost around 600 yuan!
Meng Wei was skeptical, not believing that Jiang Moli would be so kind.

He Ming believed it to be true and laughed happily, "Mrs. Lu, you're too kind."

Jiang Moli smiled and said, "When you have time, go to the counter across the street, choose your style, pay for it, and you can take it away."

He Ming was stunned.

Meng Wei's face turned ugly; she knew Jiang Moli had no good intentions!

Lu Cheng touched the tip of his nose and said that his wife's sudden generosity was actually a trick on him.

Those around her were equally speechless, their eyes filled with disdain and mockery as they looked at Jiang Moli.

You give a gift but expect the recipient to pay for it themselves? You're really good at bragging!
"Disdain value +6, 60000 yuan credited."

He Ming smiled and smoothed things over, "Mrs. Lu, you're too kind. We'll skip the gift; we're already very happy to receive your blessing. Since we've met, how about I treat you and your husband to a simple lunch?"

Jiang Moli nodded quickly, "Sure, do you mind if I bring a few more family members? My dad and brother from my parents' side, my parents-in-law and a cousin from my husband's side, plus the four of us, that'll be enough for one table."

Hearing her words, the people around her were even more speechless.

When someone invites you to dinner, you shamelessly invite both your own family and your husband's family.

"Disdain value +7, 70000 yuan credited."

He Mingnan has traveled extensively throughout the world of fame and fortune, and has seen a lot, but he has never met anyone as shameless as Jiang Moli before.

Although she was speechless inside, she maintained her composure and said, "No problem, it's more lively with more people..."

Before he could finish speaking, Meng Wei hurriedly interrupted, "Let's do it another day. We have other things to do today."

He Ming reacted quickly and followed her words, saying, "Oh right, I almost forgot, we have an appointment at noon. We'll reschedule for another day when we have time."

Meng Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

She wasn't worried about the money on He Ming's behalf, but rather she was afraid of Jiang Moli.

Every time she tried to find a partner, Jiang Moli would manage to break it up; it was truly bizarre.

Before marrying He Ming, she only wanted to stay far away from Jiang Moli.

Jiang Moli didn't really want to freeload; she just wanted to use He Ming as a tool to earn some points of disdain.

Now that she has achieved her goal, she's ready to quit while she's ahead.

"Alright then, if it's inconvenient for you, then forget it."

Meng Wei quickly left with He Ming.

Jiang Moli and Lu Cheng continued choosing clothes.

Having just made a profit, she waved her hand dismissively, "Fine, I'll take both."

Lu Cheng naturally listened to her. After buying Jiang Dahai's clothes, the two went to see what Jiang Peng was wearing.

Jiang Peng is currently in the military. His outer clothes and trousers are all uniform, but he needs to bring his own thermal underwear and sweater.

Watching Jiang Moli carefully selecting thermal underwear, Lu Cheng talked about Meng Wei and He Ming.

Do you dislike Meng Wei very much?

Jiang Moli continued working, asking, "How do you know?"

"It's not that you lack the ability to get along with her, you just don't want to. You're deliberately trying to annoy her and avoid having much contact with her?"

Jiang Moli neither confirmed nor denied, "I guess so."

She wouldn't say she hated Meng Wei, but she certainly didn't like her.

Besides, she's not blind. Meng Wei's gaze towards Lu Cheng was anything but innocent; it was obvious she still couldn't forget him.

Thinking about it, she couldn't help but glance at Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng clearly misunderstood her meaning: "If you can't make up your mind, just buy them all."

Jiang Moli handed the selected thermal underwear to the sales clerk, gave her two sizes, and then asked Lu Cheng, "What do you think of Boss He?"

When Lu Cheng heard that one of the two sizes she mentioned was his, he couldn't help but feel happy.

His wife still misses him.

He replied verbally, "This Mr. He should be married."

Jiang Moli asked in surprise, "What do you mean?"

“He has a ring mark on his left ring finger. In Hong Kong, people follow Western culture and it is customary for married couples to wear wedding rings.”

As he spoke, he held Jiang Moli's fingers and said, "Let's go pick out a pair of rings later. Your fingers are so slender and white, you'll definitely look good in rings."

Unlike Westerners' romanticism, Chinese women have to take care of housework after marriage, so they prefer earrings, necklaces, and bracelets to cumbersome rings.

Lu Cheng had wanted to buy Jiang Moli a bracelet, but Jiang Moli refused.

Jiang Moli didn't agree to his suggestion of buying a ring, but instead continued talking about Meng Wei:

"Given her pride and arrogance, she might not be willing to marry He Ming, who is already in his second marriage. If it's a second marriage, that's already a good thing; the real fear is that he's a con artist."

Such things were not uncommon in the 1980s and 90s after the reform and opening up. A large number of businessmen from Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao invested in the mainland, tricked mainland women into marriage and having children under the guise of being single, and even kept mainland women as mistresses.

Lu Cheng: "Let's not talk about her anymore. Let's go look at rings. What material do you like?"

"Shouldn't you remind her? After all, you two grew up together."

Jiang Moli usually doesn't like to meddle in other people's business, but she had an unspeakable thought about this matter.

After she completes her mission and leaves, and Meng Wei encounters another bad man, will Lu Cheng, out of guilt or other reasons, settle for Meng Wei?
Lu Cheng clearly misunderstood her thoughts, his eyes filled with a burning smile:
"Jealous?"

Jiang Moli hummed but didn't say anything.

Lu Cheng stopped looking at the ring, pulled her to a less crowded spot, bent slightly, and earnestly explained at eye level with her:

“I have never had any romantic feelings for Meng Wei, and even without you, I would not have married her.”

Jiang Moli looked into his eyes and said, "What if she's been deceived by He Ming? Won't you feel guilty?"

“She is an adult and has the ability to distinguish right from wrong. Besides, she has parents, brothers, and sisters-in-law. It is not my place to be responsible for her life as an outsider.”

Jiang Moli was satisfied and squeezed the man's thick little finger. "Let's go look at the ring."

Lu Cheng was equally pleased to hear that she was willing to buy a ring.

"What material and style do you prefer? If it's not available in the store, we'll have it custom-made."

Jiang Moli thought for a moment, "Something simple will do. Let's buy a pair of plain gold rings, something thin and not too flashy."

"it is good!"
