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

Chapter 317 Man’s calculation is not as good as God’s calculation
The weather has been great these past few days, with sunshine every day.

The stone slabs laid the day before were completely dry by the next day.

Following the blueprints, Jiang Moli installed the swing, ping-pong table, sandpit, and basketball hoop one by one, taking three days in total.

The day after the courtyard was built, after breakfast, Jiang Moli took out her newly bought ping-pong paddle and asked Lu Tingting to come with her to try it out.

Lu Tingting was in a hurry to go out and play, so she dropped the game and ran away after only a couple of rounds.

Jiang Moli, not having had enough, turned to An Hui, who was watching the commotion, and said, "Mom, let's play a couple of rounds."

An Hui waved her hands repeatedly, "I don't know how to do this, I've never played ping pong."

Without saying a word, Jiang Moli shoved the ping-pong paddle into An Hui's hands. "Come on, I'll teach you. Once you've learned, you and Dad can play ping-pong at home when you're free. It'll be good for your health."

Anhui practiced for half an hour and was exhausted, but she could basically catch the ping-pong ball with her paddle now.

She happily handed the ping-pong paddle to Ma Hongmei, saying, "You play with Jasmine, I'll take a break."

Ma Hongmei had never played table tennis before, but after watching An Hui learn for a long time, she was also eager to try it herself.

Just as she reached out to catch the ping-pong paddle, the phone rang at home.

She pulled her hand back to answer the phone, but An Hui stopped her, saying, "I'll answer it and have some water while I'm at it."

"it is good."

Jiang Moli and Ma Hongmei had only played a couple of rounds when An Hui called her home to answer a phone call.

The call was from Jiang Wenjuan.

"Xiao Jiang, I received everything you sent. Thank you for always remembering us and sending things over."

"Sister-in-law, don't be so polite with me. I caused you and Zhong Tuan a lot of trouble last year."

Phone calls are expensive, so after a few casual words, Jiang Wenjuan got straight to the point.

"...Xiao Jiang, don't blame your sister-in-law for meddling. Xiao Lu has worked hard to get to where he is today. It would be such a waste to give up such a good opportunity."

"Xiao Jiang, to be honest, I understand you. When I first got married, I didn't want to come to the army either. It was only after I had a child that I changed my mind. You and Xiao Lu can't live apart forever. Whether he goes back or you come here, you have to make a plan. I sincerely hope you can think it over carefully."

"Sister-in-law, there's no need to consider this."

"Xiao Jiang, you don't need to reply so hastily, think about it some more..."

Jiang Wenjuan wanted to say a few more words of persuasion, but then she heard Jiang Moli say, "Sister-in-law, please tell Zhong Tuan that I agree to this."

"Ah, that's great!"

Jiang Moli hung up the phone and turned around to find An Hui standing in the living room, a faint worry on her face.

"What happened? Did something happen at the military base?"

It's no wonder An Hui was nervous; in all the years since Lu Cheng was transferred to Menghai, she had never had any dealings with Jiang Wenjuan.

The phone call came out of nowhere, and they talked to Jiang Moli for a long time.

Jiang Wenjuan spoke in a low voice, so she didn't hear clearly, only what Jiang Moli said to Jiang Wenjuan.

"Mom, don't worry, it's a good thing. But Lu Cheng has to tell you and Dad himself. If I tell him, that would be a leak."

An Hui was relieved.

As long as it's not a bad thing, it's fine.

……

At noon, Zhong Weiguo went straight into the kitchen as soon as he got home.

"So, did you call Xiao Jiang in town today? What did she say?"

While asking, he tried to lift the pot lid to see what lunch was coming up, but Jiang Wenjuan opened it impatiently.

"Xiao Jiang is a very perceptive person. I didn't even have to persuade him much before he agreed!"

Jiang Wenjuan's tone revealed her admiration and fondness for Jiang Moli.

Zhong Weiguo clapped his hands happily: "Great! That's wonderful! This matter is resolved, isn't it?"

Jiang Wenjuan looked at him teasingly, "That solved it, didn't it? Next time something happens, don't just curse." "The leader is right. Oh, Comrade Jiang, you've done a great job this time!"

Zhong Weiguo went up and cupped Jiang Wenjuan's face, giving her two quick kisses.

"Hey, what are you doing? Get out of my way!"

Jiang Wenjuan pushed the person away with disdain, but her face was full of spring-like joy.

"I just cherish you, because a virtuous wife is half the battle in a husband's life!"

"Don't you feel ashamed in front of the children!"

Despite being scolded, Zhong Weiguo wasn't angry. He turned around and waved cheerfully to the three siblings who were peeking through the kitchen door, giggling.

"Go do your homework, I'll call you when dinner is ready."

Jiang Xin'er blinked: "Mom, today's math lesson was so hard, I can't write it."

Jiang Wenjuan said, "If you don't know how to write it, leave it blank for now. I'll take a look after we eat."

"I'll go check it out, you go cook your meal."

Jiang Wenjuan usually takes care of the children's studies, but Zhong Weiguo was in a good mood today and wanted to share some of the burden with his wife.

"Can you do it?"

Meeting his wife's questioning gaze, Zhong Weiguo straightened his back and said, "Don't underestimate me. I'm not afraid of going to the battlefield, so why would I be stumped by a math problem?"

Three minutes later.

Zhong Weiguo held the homework book with a furrowed brow.

Jiang Xin'er stared at him expectantly, her neck aching from looking at him. "Dad, do you even know how to do it?"

After glancing at the three children, Zhong Weiguo walked to the window and loudly read the question aloud to the sky.

After he finished reading, he turned back to the three children and smiled, "Let's leave it to fate. After all, man proposes, God disposes, right? Haha!"

The three children had no expression.

Jiang Wenjuan, who brought out the dishes: "..."

You're really something!
……

An Hui didn't ask many questions about Jiang Wenjuan's phone call, but she kept it in mind.

When Lu Dezhao came home from get off work in the evening, she called him into her room and told him about it.

"It's definitely a good thing. The expansion of the 77th Brigade was finalized at the end of last year. An additional independent regiment will be added to Menglong Town."

An Hui has a keen political mind and can understand things just by listening.

"Are they going to promote the third son?"

Lu Dezhao tacitly agreed.

“But the third brother was promoted to battalion commander in less than two years. Isn’t that too fast?” An Hui was surprised, happy and worried at the same time.

Lu Dezhao pulled her to sit down on the edge of the bed and slowly said, "It's not that the higher-ups don't have concerns about Lao San, so they made an extra request to let Moli go with the army, but Lao San has never told Moli about this."

"I reckon that the third brother doesn't want to put Jasmine in a difficult position, and he also wants to use this opportunity to push the matter away. How many people in the Independent Regiment are envious of this position?"

"Menglong is located on the border, a poor and remote place. Smuggling, robbery, kidnapping and human trafficking are rampant, and we have to be on guard against armed conflict at any time. It's easy to deal with things outside, but we're afraid that our own people will cause trouble. It's tough."

An Hui was quite proud when she heard that the third brother was going to be promoted to regimental commander.

Such a young regimental commander, especially in an independent regiment, is unparalleled in the entire military region.

But after hearing her husband's analysis, her heart sank.

"What are we going to do? Jasmine agreed to go with the army. And that third brother, if only he had told us earlier, we could have talked to Jasmine and refused!"

Lu Dezhao was not surprised when he heard that Jiang Moli had agreed to go with the army.

Although the third son's wife is unreliable, she is never ambiguous when it comes to important matters.
