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

Chapter 356 Extra Chapter 17: The Wife-Loving Man Prospers

The sun was blazing.

Looking at the few elderly people and children scattered around the threshing ground, the women's federation comrades, led by Li Hong, all wore worried expressions.

Today is the first time the Women's Federation has gone to the countryside to give lectures to women. The lecture is about to start, but we haven't seen a single woman yet. It's a bad start indeed.

For rural women, it's better to work in the fields and earn more work points than to waste time listening to useless lectures.

Under the shade of a tree not far away, Jiang Moli used a handful of fruit candies to gather several village children who were playing in the threshing ground together.

The village children received the candy and ran happily home.

"Xiao Jiang is really something, what time is it, and he still has the leisure to tease the child."

Yuan Qiuxiang watched this scene and whispered to Lin Caiyun beside her.

Lin Caiyun glanced at Jiang Moli but didn't say anything. Li Hong, however, looked at her watch and called out to Jiang Moli to come over.

It was hot, and out of consideration for Jiang Moli's pregnancy, Li Hong specially asked her to rest in the shade.

After Jiang Moli joined them, Li Hong said, "It's about time, let's begin."

Jiang Moli: "Director, let's wait a little longer, the person hasn't arrived yet."

"We notified them yesterday, they should have come long ago. In this sweltering heat, who are we doing this for? And they don't even appreciate it. In my opinion, we don't need to go to other villages, we can just broadcast it over the loudspeaker, that would be easier!"

Yuan Qiuxiang's complaints also reflected the feelings of others.

Going to the countryside to give presentations in such hot weather is exhausting and thankless, which can be disheartening.

"Comrades, don't be discouraged. The reason people aren't coming is because they don't understand our Women's Federation and what we do. That's precisely why we need to conduct outreach and let the women know that the Women's Federation is their support and their family."

Jiang Moli's encouragement not only boosted morale but also made her complaining colleagues feel ashamed.

They were all veteran members of the Women's Federation, but their awareness was not as high as that of Jiang Moli, a newcomer.

Li Hong said approvingly, "Xiao Jiang is right. We can't back down because of a little difficulty. If we give up, what will happen to the vast number of women who are suffering?"

"Director, look, someone's here!"

Everyone turned to look and sure enough, they saw a group of women chatting and laughing as they walked briskly toward the threshing ground.

"Xiao Jiang was right, someone really came."

Everyone's worries turned to joy.

Jiang Moli: "I asked the village children to go back and spread the word that every household that comes to listen to the lecture can receive a free bar of soap."

Li Hong's smile vanished in shock at Jiang Moli's words.

Other colleagues were equally astonished. "Xiao Jiang, are you kidding me? Where are we going to get soap?" "If each household gets one bar, how many bars of soap would that be?"

Jiang Moli explained, "I have soap at home. I just asked someone to go home and send a message to ask someone to deliver it to me. Also, I will personally cover the cost of buying the soap, as a way to accumulate good karma for the child in my belly."

After hearing her words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Hong was not very happy.

Jiang Moli acted first and then informed her without prior notice, which shows a complete disregard for her position as director.

"Director, the soap thing was a terrible idea I came up with on the spur of the moment. I made the decision without asking for permission first. I will write a self-criticism when I get back and promise not to do it again."

Li Hong's displeasure dissipated considerably after Jiang Moli humbly apologized.

Before long, all the women in the village had arrived at the threshing ground.

……

After Li Hong finished explaining the main points, Jiang Moli, heavily pregnant, walked onto the stage, smiling and speaking in a strong voice:
"Fellow villagers, my name is Jiang Moli. As a member of the Women's Federation, I have a few words to say to you all today."

There is an old saying that a wife should be virtuous. A virtuous wife brings fewer troubles to her husband and brings prosperity to three generations. This is enough to illustrate the importance of women to the family.

"Why is there an old saying that one should start a family before building a career? Because women are like water, and water represents wealth. When water gathers, wealth naturally prospers. When a man has a wife, it is equivalent to having family wealth."

"In a family, if the woman is unhappy, then the family will certainly not be happy. The husband's attitude determines the wife's temper, and the wife's temper affects the family's fortune."

"A man who loves his wife will prosper, while a man who mistreats his wife will never have any wealth. If you want your family to be harmonious and your clan to prosper, you must treat your wife well!"

Applause erupted from the audience.

"That's so well said!!"

The bowl of chicken soup for the soul left all the women in the room wanting more, and they all expressed their goodwill and agreement.

Affection level +1 +2 +3...

After the presentation, Jiang Moli and her colleagues from the Women's Federation distributed soap to the villagers.

People lined up in long queues, holding their household registration books, registering each person as they received their certificate, to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation to receive more than their share.

The villagers who received the soap were all beaming with joy.

Although it was only the size of a matchbox, it was a rare find in a rural area where resources were scarce.

After learning that Jiang Moli had bought the soap out of her own pocket, everyone was grateful to her for being beautiful and kind-hearted, and believed that she would definitely give birth to a big, healthy boy!

Affection level +7, 70000 yuan received.
