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

Chapter 334 Life Choices
"Host, if you need it, this system can provide a free purchasing service!"

Perhaps because the mission was nearing completion, the system's tone was noticeably more cheerful than before.

Jiang Moli also became interested, "Tell me, how does the purchasing agent work?"

"The host can list the necessary resources, and this system will deliver them to the host in a reasonable and legal manner, including but not limited to inheritance, gifts, investments, and business profits."

Jiang Moli chose to inherit the wealth without hesitation.

Inheritance is the most direct and effective method, and it avoids subsequent troubles.

Immediately, Jiang Moli found paper and pen and listed all the things she wanted on the paper.

A traditional courtyard house, two Western-style houses from the Republican era, 500 square meters of shops, twenty gold bricks, ten sets of rare stamps, ten boxes of Moutai liquor, and various gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, and calligraphy and paintings...

……

Lu Cheng went to the brigade for a meeting. Jiang Peng brought him lunch and told Jiang Moli about Wei Qing's situation.

“Dad called the military base this morning and said that Wei Qing’s verdict was in: fifteen years in prison.”

"Only fifteen years?"

Jiang Moli wasn't gloating; she was just curious.

Wei Qing committed murder with intent, and the circumstances were extremely heinous. In principle, a suspended death sentence would not be unreasonable.

Jiang Peng took a bite of rice and said, "They said her uncle's family wrote her a letter of forgiveness."

The Wei family may not be able to forgive the murder of their daughter.

It seems that Wei Qing was spared because Li Hongying had committed suicide to atone for her sins.

"She'll be in jail for fifteen years. By the time she gets out, she'll be almost forty. I'm afraid she won't be able to get married then."

Jiang Peng's voice sounded somewhat muffled.

He didn't particularly like Li Hongying and her daughter, but he didn't harbor any deep hatred either.

Now that one is dead and the other is in prison, he feels quite bitter.

Jiang Moli: "If she reforms herself properly, it's not impossible for her to be released from prison three to five years early."

"Sister, do you hope she gets released soon?"

"Everyone has their own path to walk. It's not up to you or me to decide. You should focus your energy on your own people and worry less about other people's business."

Jiang Peng nodded silently.

Jiang Moli looked at him and asked, "How have things been going with Xiaoyue lately?"

Jiang Peng scratched his head: "It's fine as it is."

"When you have free time, take Xiaoyue to the market more often and buy her some food, clothes and other necessities."

"understood."

……

In the visiting room.

Jiang Dahai spoke to Wei Qing through the iron bars: "...Behave well in prison and try to get a reduced sentence so you can get out sooner. You're still young, and you have a long life ahead of you."

Wei Qing's expressionless face revealed a hint of sarcasm. "It's come to this point, why are you still pretending to be a good person?"

Jiang Dahai remained silent for a few seconds before speaking, "If your mother were still alive, she wouldn't want you to give up on yourself."

"Don't mention her to me!"

Wei Qing glared at Jiang Dahai with resentment, like an enraged beast: "My mother's death, and my current state, are all your Jiang family's fault!" Jiang Dahai sighed, "As an ordinary father, I do have my own selfish motives, but Xiao Qing, you can't choose your birth, but you can decide how you live your life."

"I don't need your crocodile tears and fake compassion!"

……

Back in her cell, looking at the neatly arranged underwear, rubber boots, and toiletries on the bed, Wei Qing's eyes were filled with sneer.

Little did she know, the other female prisoners in the same cell were all looking at her with great envy.

For people like them who have committed crimes, their families have long since stopped caring whether they live or die. They would rather they die outside so as not to embarrass themselves when they return.

“4409, your family is so good to you, they send you things every month.”

Wei Qing looked at the man coldly, "Is giving him some worthless stuff to get rid of him considered being kind to me?"

These words surprised all the female prisoners in the room.

"Isn't this good enough? Then what do you think would be considered good for you?"

"He's truly good to his own daughter; he'd give her anything she wanted, and he'd want to shower her with all the good things in the world!"

One of the female prisoners said, "You should be grateful. She's her own daughter, and you're just her stepdaughter. It's already very kind of her to treat you this well."

"Think about it, if it weren't for your stepfather, you wouldn't have been able to go to high school in the city, and you probably wouldn't even have been able to go to elementary school."

"If you had stayed in the countryside, you would have been married off long ago, taking care of the whole family every day and doing endless farm work."

"It's good enough if she can get married properly. There was a stepdaughter in the next village who was abused by her stepfather and several stepbrothers. She couldn't bear to live and drank pesticide and died. There was another one who was even worse off. She was beaten to death by her stepmother."

As the female prisoners chattered on, Wei Qing's face grew increasingly grim.

Although she was talking about other people's affairs, every sentence sounded like she was being scolded for being ungrateful.

Was she really wrong?

No, she is not wrong!

She just wanted to live a decent life, but God was so unfair to her!
……

"Xiao Qing, your Uncle Jiang will be coming to pick us up and take us to the city early tomorrow morning. Once we're in the city, not only will we have plenty to eat and wear, but you'll also be able to go to school. For the sake of a better future, you must behave well and not make your Uncle Jiang angry, okay?"

Looking at Li Hongying's youthful and cheerful face, Wei Qing couldn't help but feel dazed.

Has she reverted to her childhood?
"mom?"

She happily reached out to touch Li Hongying's face.

Li Hongying held her frail little hand and whispered comfortingly, "Don't worry, your Uncle Jiang is a good-tempered man. He has a daughter who is about your age, named Jiang Moli..."

Upon hearing the name "Jiang Moli," Wei Qing's heart skipped a beat.

"Mom, I don't want to go to the Jiang family. Can we just stay in the village?"

Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Li Hongying couldn't persuade her daughter otherwise, so she didn't go to the city with Jiang Dahai and stayed in Lianhua Village instead.

The past three years have been very difficult for the mother and daughter.

Working day and night in the fields made Li Hongying look much older than her actual age, and she also developed a cough, and her health deteriorated day by day.

Wei Qing herself also faces dropping out of school because she cannot pay the tuition fees.

Once again, Wei Qing stood outside the gate of the machinery factory's residential area, silently watching Jiang Moli emerge from inside.
