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

Chapter 293 Sleep with You
Wearing a new coat and new shoes, Meng Wei twirled twice in front of her mother and said happily:
"Mom, how is it? Does it look good? I'm going to wear this when I go to Hong Kong to meet He Ming's parents."

Meng's mother looked at her, then at the dazzling array of clothes, hats, shoes, and bags on the bed, and hesitated to speak.

"Xiaowei, is this Xiaohe reliable? You've only known him for a month, why rush into marriage? Spend more time getting to know him better."

Meng Wei was in high spirits when she was suddenly dampened and became very unhappy. "Mom, what's wrong with you? When I didn't have a boyfriend, you urged me to get married every day. Now that I've finally met someone I like, you're stopping me from getting married. What exactly do you want me to do?"

Meng's mother earnestly advised, "Xiao Wei, your father and I certainly hope that you will settle down and start a family as soon as possible, but we know nothing about Xiao He's background. You will be unfamiliar with Hong Kong City if you go with him and he bullies you. We will not be able to help you."

“Mom, you’re overthinking it. He’s friends with Zhu Xiao’s cousin, and Zhu Xiao would never hurt me. Although we haven’t known each other for long, you’ve seen how good he’s been to me these past few days. If I miss out on him, I’ll never find anyone better in my life.”

Thinking of He Ming's generosity towards his daughter, and considering her daughter's age, Meng's mother's psychological defenses softened somewhat.

"Then after the New Year, I'll go with you to Hong Kong to meet their parents."

Meng Wei hesitated for a moment.

She had mentioned to He Ming that their parents should meet, but He Ming said that his family did not agree to him marrying a woman from the mainland and had even found him a fiancée from Hong Kong who was a good match for him.

He Ming’s original words were, “I will not accept the arrangements made by my elders. Relationships are a matter between the two of us. The only woman I want to marry in this life is you. Otherwise, I would rather remain unmarried for life.”

She didn't tell her parents about these things.

Her parents didn't like He Ming very much to begin with, and if they knew that He Ming's family opposed her and He Ming, they would definitely try their best to stop her from going to Hong Kong with He Ming.

"Mom, let me discuss this with He Ming."

Meng's mother was somewhat dissatisfied, "What's there to discuss? You two are getting married. If Xiao He is truly sincere, he should take the initiative to bring his family over to meet and discuss your marriage."

It must be said that Mencius' mother was still clear-headed.

However, Meng Wei was completely blinded by He Ming's sweet words and couldn't listen to them at all.

……

After lunch, Lu Cheng went back to his room to assemble the newly bought bed.

Jiang Moli was helping An Hui and Ma Hongmei make braised pork in the living room.

In Chengdu, braised pork belly is an indispensable classic dish on the dinner table during festivals, weddings, and funerals.

Lu Dezhao likes salty braised pork, while Lu Tingting's nephews and nieces prefer sweet braised pork. So, Ma Hongmei made two large bowls of both, one salty and one sweet.

A short while later, Lu Cheng called to her from the doorway, "Jasmine, come here for a moment."

Jiang Moli entered the bedroom and found that the newly bought bed had already been assembled, and even the sheets and duvet covers were laid out, flat and without a single wrinkle.

"Would you like to try out the new bed?"

Hearing Lu Cheng's question, Jiang Moli looked out the window, "Now? In broad daylight, wouldn't that be inappropriate?"

Lu Cheng flicked her forehead, "I told you to try out the bed and see if it's comfortable to sleep in. What were you thinking?"

After playing the piano, he tenderly rubbed her forehead with his thick, warm palms.

Jiang Moli looked at him and said, "What's so great about sleeping in a bed? I'd be more interested in sleeping with you."

Lu Cheng glanced at his watch and said seriously, "There's no time. Just bear with it and wait until tonight."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pinched her fair chin, saying affectionately, "Why are you acting like a little glutton, hmm?"

Jiang Moli said matter-of-factly, "If I ever stop craving you, you'll be unhappy."

Lu Cheng chuckled to himself: "..."

He absolutely adored his wife's mischievous side.

After packing, the two carried their New Year's gifts and returned to the wife's family home. Jiang Dahai was waiting at the entrance of the family compound early in the morning, his face reddened by the cold wind, looking preoccupied.

He didn't sleep well all night, his mind was filled with thoughts of his son dating someone, and he wished he could run to the Lu family to find his daughter and son-in-law and ask them for clarification.

As soon as Jiang Moli and Lu Cheng arrived, he didn't even bother to exchange pleasantries.

"Jasmine, Xiao Lu, do you know this woman, Tang Xiaoyue?"

Lu Cheng told Jiang Dahai about Tang Xiaoyue and Tang Yuan's family situation.

The Tang siblings are both from Yunnan Province. Their biological mother died early, and their biological father remarried. As the saying goes, with a stepmother comes a stepfather, and the siblings had a very difficult time at home. They grew up relying on each other, which is why they had a very close relationship.

Jiang Dahai, being a father himself, felt a pang of pity upon learning about Tang Xiaoyue's background.

"Xiao Peng said he's dating Xiao Tang. Jasmine, Xiao Lu, do you know about this?"

Back home, Jiang Moli called Xiaopeng over.

"Has Xiaoyue agreed to date you? And you're already telling everyone she's your boyfriend?"

Jiang Peng retorted confidently, "She promised to make me underwear. If she didn't like me, why would she make me underwear? Why doesn't she make underwear for someone else?"

Jiang Moli had nothing to say.

In this era, male-female relationships are relatively conservative, and it's considered outrageous for an unmarried lesbian to make clothes and shoes for a male.

Tang Xiaoyue agreed to make underwear for Jiang Peng, which clearly indicates that she had romantic feelings for him.

Jiang Moli looked at her younger brother.

After spending half a year in the army, I grew taller and thinner, but I lost some of my naivety and became a spirited young man.

She asked, "Do you like Xiaoyue?"

Jiang Peng scratched his head. "She even made me underwear, so I'm definitely going to marry her."

Jiang Moli found it amusing. "You marry someone just because they make you underwear? What if other women make you underwear later? Will you marry them too?"

Jiang Peng's eyes lit up: "Is that okay?"

Jiang Moli kicked him in the leg. "I treat Xiaoyue like a younger sister. If you dare to betray her, I'll break all three of your legs, you believe me?"

Jiang Peng silently clutched his crotch. "I was just kidding, sis, don't be so fierce. Besides, I'm the only son in our family. Do you want Dad's family line to end?"

Jiang Moli smiled enigmatically, "Dad's only 40. Is it so hard for him to find another wife and have a few sons?"

Jiang Dahai: “…”

I thank you!
Jiang Dahai was overjoyed to find out that his son had indeed found a girlfriend, and a good one at that.

After Jiang Moli and Lu Cheng finished dinner and returned home, he took out his account book and began to calculate the expenses for marrying his son's wife.

A house is a must; even sparrows know to build a nest before courting.

If there isn't even a place to shelter from the wind and rain, then you shouldn't waste the girl's time.

With the sound of three cars, the bride price, and the cost of the banquet, the total expenses would easily amount to around 1,500 yuan.

Fortunately, his son is still young, so he has time to save money slowly. The only headache is housing.

He's currently living in his son-in-law's house. It would be outrageous for his son to use his son-in-law's house to get married.

But he has just been transferred to the Agriculture Bureau, and it will be difficult for him to get a housing allocation quota within three to five years.

Alas, sad.
