Chapter 302 Fortune Telling
“When I was out doing a performance before, I met a fortune teller on the way, and he gave my second uncle a divination.”

Upon hearing Jiang Moli's words, the whole family stopped eating and looked at her.

Jiang Moli didn't keep them in suspense and said directly, "The fortune teller said that Second Uncle is incompatible with tobacco and alcohol, and that avoiding these two things will ensure his safety."

Jiang Dachuan scoffed, "This fortune teller is talking nonsense! I've smoked half my life and drunk half my life, and I'm doing just fine."

As he spoke, he picked up the wine bottle and continued to refill the bottles for Jiang Dashan and Jiang Dahai.

The others didn't take Jiang Moli's words to heart either.

In this rural area, which man doesn't smoke or drink?

Jiang Dashan, however, jumped up and snatched the bottle from Jiang Dachuan's hand, saying, "I told you not to drink, so don't drink anymore!"

"Brother, you still believe in fortune tellers? They just spout nonsense to swindle money."

Jiang Dachuan disagreed and started to take the wine back.

Jiang Dashan raised his hand and threw the wine bottle on the ground. With a loud bang, the glass bottle shattered into pieces, and the wine spilled all over the ground.

The whole family was stunned.

"Brother, why did you smash this perfectly good bottle of wine? Are you drunk?"

Jiang Dachuan was heartbroken to see the broken wine bottle.

This wine was brought back by Lu Cheng when he accompanied Jiang Moli back to Lizigou last time. He had treasured it for almost half a year before finally taking it out to entertain guests today.

"All you do is drink! Can't you hear what Jasmine is saying? If you drink again, I won't let you get away with it!"

Jiang Dachuan was stunned by the scolding. "No, that fortune teller has never even seen me. How could his predictions be accurate?"

"It's better to believe it's true than not to believe it's not! You're not allowed to drink anymore."

"Okay, okay, I won't drink anymore, I won't drink anymore."

Jiang Dachuan casually agreed, thinking that Jiang Dashan was probably drunk and acting crazy. He would be fine once he sobered up tomorrow, but it was a pity that a bottle of good wine was wasted.

Thinking about it, I took out a cigarette from my pocket, wanting to smoke one to calm my emotions.

The cigarette had just been put in his mouth when Jiang Dashan snatched it away and crushed it to pieces.

Immediately afterwards, another large slap landed on his face.

Jiang Dachuan was stunned by the beating, clutching his cheek and staring at Jiang Dashan for a long time, unable to react.

Ding Yuzhen objected, "Big brother, Da Chuan didn't provoke you! Why did you hit him?"

Jiang Dahai also felt that Jiang Dashan had drunk too much, so he quickly got up and pulled Jiang Dashan outside, wanting to take him home to sober up.

Lu Cheng and Jiang Peng also helped out.

Unable to break free from the three men, Jiang Dashan could only yell at Jiang Dachuan, "Jasmine told you not to smoke or drink, it's for your own good. If you dare disobey Jasmine, you'll regret it in the future!"

Upon hearing Jiang Dashan's words, everyone's expression became complicated.

Everyone believed that Jiang Dashan was just using alcohol as an excuse to fawn over Jiang Moli.

Jiang Moli is not the same as before. Her father has become a cadre in a government agency, her younger brother has joined the army, and her husband is a battalion commander. And these three men only listen to Jiang Moli.

Winning Jiang Moli's favor will bring many benefits in the future.

Jiang Dashan looks like an honest and simple person, but he's actually quite cunning!

In fact, the whole family misunderstood Jiang Dashan.

He forbade Jiang Dachuan from drinking and smoking because he genuinely cared about Jiang Dachuan's well-being.

Back then, he listened to Jiang Moli's advice and broke up with Ge Yue'e in time, thus saving his reputation and his eyesight.

He didn't believe in fortune telling, but he trusted that Jiang Moli wouldn't harm her uncles.

Unfortunately, Jiang Dachuan couldn't understand his older brother's good intentions. He had his wine bottle smashed and was slapped in the face, feeling incredibly aggrieved. But Jiang Dashan was his older brother, so he couldn't retaliate and could only suffer in silence.

……

After dinner, Jiang Moli and Lu Cheng picked up Jiang Dahai and his son and took them back to the city.

Upon arriving at the car, Jiang Dahai and Jiang Peng got in first.

When it was Lu Tingting's turn to get on the bus, Jiang Peng stuck out his leg to block her way, saying, "Go sit on the other side." Lu Tingting glared at him: "Are you crazy? I'm sitting here, is it any of your business?"

He then tried to force himself onto the bus.

Jiang Peng held onto the car door, preventing her from getting in. "Don't sit next to me. I have a girlfriend, and I need to keep my distance from other women."

Lu Tingting was incredulous: "You have a boyfriend? Who's blind enough to even be interested in you?"

"You're just jealous. Even if Teacher Shen were blind, she wouldn't be interested in you!"

Lu Tingting was so angry she turned into a ball.

Jiang Dahai spoke up to stop the two from arguing, "Alright, stop arguing. Xiaopeng, switch seats with me. Tingting, sit next to me, okay?"

Looking at Jiang Dahai's kind smile, Lu Tingting nodded and got into the car.

The country road was bumpy, and in order not to bump into Lu Tingting, Jiang Dahai kept his hands on the back of the seat in front of him.

He casually inquired about Lu Tingting's studies, "Tingting will graduate in another year, right? What kind of job are you planning to do after graduation?"

"Not ready yet."

"Since you studied agriculture, working in the agricultural bureau is a good option. You can consider it."

"Oh."

Although Jiang Dahai was an elder, he didn't have an unpleasant odor, and Lu Tingting didn't feel uncomfortable sitting next to him.

However, thinking back to the jokes Wu Meixia and Song Ke made about making her Jiang Moli's stepmother, she couldn't help but feel uncomfortable.

To ease the awkwardness, she asked Jiang Peng across the river, "Hey, who's your girlfriend?"

Jiang Peng replied to her, "What do you mean 'hey'? Can't you call me 'uncle'? My girlfriend is Tang Xiaoyue. You'll have to call her 'aunt' when you see her in the future."

Lu Tingting said dejectedly, "Don't push me too far, or else..."

Jiang Peng smugly said, "Otherwise what? You think you can bite me?"

Lu Tingting bit her lip, glanced at Jiang Dahai's refined and kind face, and angrily turned her head to look out the car window.

If you really anger her, she'll marry Jiang Dahai and become Jiang Moli and Jiang Peng's stepmother!
Those two bastards are infuriating!
Thinking about it, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Jiang Moli, who was in the front row, turned around and looked at her. "What are you thinking about? Enjoying yourself by yourself."

Lu Tingting rolled her eyes at her, "Mind your own business."

"Hey, have you been in touch with your teacher, Ms. Shen, lately?"

It would have been better if she hadn't mentioned it, because once it was brought up, Lu Tingting became depressed.

She wrote several letters to Shen Yanzhi, but he never replied to one!
“Your third uncle is going back to the army in a few days. If you have any letters or things to send, you can prepare in advance and ask your third uncle to send them to you.”

Lu Tingting stole a glance at Lu Cheng, and seeing that he didn't object, she immediately started to make her own plans.

……

Return to the military compound.

I ran into Wu Miaoyun at my doorstep as she was leaving home to go back.

Upon seeing the two, they greeted each other warmly, "Hey, Xiao Lu and Xiao Jiang, you're back from the countryside?"

Lu Cheng replied politely, "It's still early, Aunt Wu, why don't you stay a little longer?"

Wu Miaoyun waved her hand, "I can't sit down, I have things to do at home. Come over another day."

He walked away with a big smile on his face.

Jiang Moli looked up at the sky.

Lu Cheng walked to her side, and looking up at the sky in confusion, asked, "What are you looking at?"

"I wonder if the sun is rising in the west. This is the first time Aunt Wu has smiled at me since I married into the family. I'm a little flattered."

Lu Cheng chuckled and ruffled her hair. "Isn't it nice?"

Once they got home, Jiang Moli finally understood why Wu Miaoyun was so happy.
