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

Chapter 382 Extra Chapter 43: The Money Wasn't Wasted
Although watching Jiang Moli take care of others was very satisfying, Lu Tingting couldn't understand why Jiang Moli would donate her inheritance.

On her way home, she couldn't help but mock Jiang Moli: "Did your pregnancy make you stupid? How could you do something so self-destructive and hurtful to the enemy?"

"How dare you speak to your third aunt like that? You have no manners at all."

An Hui scolded her granddaughter, but she also had mixed feelings about Jiang Moli's donation.

She could never be so generous and open-minded as to donate 100 million without a second thought.

She asked Jiang Moli, "Moli, have you discussed this donation with your father-in-law and your brother?"

Jiang Moli replied, "I always make the decisions at home, and they all listen to me."

Anhui was speechless and choked with emotion.

She glanced at Jiang Moli and couldn't help but feel secretly relieved. Luckily, she wasn't the one who gave birth to her; otherwise, even ten lives wouldn't be enough to vent her anger.

Lu Dezhao returned home at noon.

He praised Jiang Moli's donation, commending her for her high moral character and courage, but then repeatedly gave her instructions:

"Jasmine, it's fine if you donate the money your mother left behind, but you can't donate our family's money, okay? Look, you're pregnant with three babies now, and our whole family needs to eat and drink. If we don't have money, the whole family will starve, right?"

Jiang Moli took a bite of the sweet corn on the cob: "Dad, don't worry, I'm not stupid."

Lu Dezhao smiled on the surface, but in his heart he thought, "If you're not stupid, then there's no one in the world more stupid than you."

After lunch, Wu Miaoyun used the excuse of delivering melons to come to An Hui's house and inquire about Jiang Moli's donation of money.

Upon hearing that Jiang Moli had actually donated all of her 100 million yuan inheritance, she outwardly flattered Jiang Moli for her righteousness, but secretly chatted with the other family members.

“I thought she would change her ways after she got pregnant, but she’s still acting like a brat. Her in-laws will be ruined by her sooner or later.”

Through Wu Miaoyun and others, the news of Jiang Moli's donation of 100 million yuan quickly spread throughout the compound.

The people in the compound had various opinions.

Some laughed at Jiang Moli for being foolish, while others admired her for genuinely doing a good deed.

Jiang Moli successfully gained a wave of goodwill.

……

The news that the Jiang family had received a million-dollar inheritance and then donated it to the government quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys thanks to reports on television, radio, and newspapers.

As Jiang Moli was dubbed "the generous woman" and "philanthropist" by the citizens, her popularity soared.

In just two days, Jiang Moli gained two thousand favor points.

The mission progress has smoothly surpassed the 8000 mark.

Riding this momentum, the task is within reach.

……

After breakfast, Jiang Moli called the military unit as usual.

Since Meng Long returned, she and Lu Cheng have maintained a contact frequency of calling each other every three days.

After chatting about the children's recent situation as usual, Jiang Moli asked about Lu Cheng's vacation.

"Can you get back before the 25th?"

"I'll try my best, okay?"

"At the latest, the 30th. I'll wait until the 30th. You decide what to do."

"Okay, I'll be back before the 30th. You can focus on your pregnancy and don't worry too much. You and the baby will both be safe and sound."

Although Lu Cheng didn't believe Jiang Moli's claim that she wanted to take him and the child back to their original world, after hanging up the phone, he still took out the leave application he had prepared in his drawer and moved his original leave date of the 29th to the 25th. His wife was urging him to go back; she must miss him.

As a husband, he owes his family and loved ones too much, so there's no reason why he wouldn't fulfill his wife's small request.

……

In the days that followed, Jiang Moli took care of her pregnancy while counting down the days until the inheritance arrived.

Ye Shaoting's businesses are all in Taiwan Province, including factories, real estate, jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, and a wide variety of collectibles. She hired a lawyer to handle the handover with the Ye family.

……

Three days later, Jiang Moli received a call from Jiang Dahai, "Moli, I have good news to tell you!"

"The inheritance has been divided so quickly?"

Jiang Moli found it strange.

Given the efficiency and speed of money transfers in this era, it would be considered fast if it could be completed in half a month.

“It’s not about the inheritance, it’s about the house. This morning, the bureau chief specifically talked to me and said that he would recognize me as an outstanding individual this year and would also allocate me a house. He said that the municipal party committee leaders had specially instructed them to take care of me.”

"Jasmine, we have a house again!"

Jiang Dahai was probably too happy, and his last sentence was tinged with a slight sob.

For workers of that era, being allocated their own housing was undoubtedly a lifelong obsession and goal.

Jiang Moli said with a grin, "Dad, we didn't waste our money, did we?"

Jiang Dahai beamed, "Yes, it wasn't a waste of money, it was worth it!"

The municipal party committee issued instructions, and the agricultural bureau did not dare to hesitate. Within two days, they allocated Jiang Dahai a two-bedroom apartment with good ventilation from north to south.

A few days after moving to the new house, the inheritance was successfully received.

When processing the donation procedures, Jiang Moli also invited Lu Tingting to join her.

After the donation procedures were completed, Jiang Moli, in front of the municipal party committee leaders, immediately appointed Lu Tingting as her agent to supervise the subsequent use and flow of the donation funds.

Lu Tingting was more surprised than pleased to be entrusted with such an important task by Jiang Moli.

Having suffered too many losses at Jiang Moli's hands, she had developed an instinctive stress response, always feeling that Jiang Moli was secretly setting traps for her.

Without saying a word, he refused, saying, "I'm not going to help you with this mess. You should find someone else!"

Jiang Moli spoke to her seriously for once, saying, "If you handle this matter well, you'll have no problem getting a job in a government agency after graduating next year."

Lu Tingting wasn't stupid either. As the supervisor of the charitable funds, she frequently appeared in front of the municipal leaders, which greatly benefited her job assignment and future prospects.

But she didn't believe Jiang Moli would be so kind as to help her. "Unsolicited kindness is always suspicious. I won't fall for your tricks!"

Jiang Moli patted her head, saying, "You're teachable, aren't you? You've got a brain now, you know that there's no such thing as a free lunch."

Lu Tingting snorted and brushed her aside, "I don't know about others, but I know you well; you're full of bad ideas."

Whether the water inside me is good or bad, you'll only know after you taste it.

After teasing her, Jiang Moli became serious again. "I'm entrusting this matter to you because of our aunt-nephew relationship. I want to help you out. Whether you want to take the job or not is up to you."

After hearing Jiang Moli's words, Lu Tingting couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering her, "Aren't you afraid I'll mess things up? I've never managed accounts before."

"If you don't understand, ask; if you don't know how, learn; practice more when cooking. Instead of worrying about not being able to do it well, think more about how to do it well."

Lu Tingting habitually wanted to argue, but she had to admit that Jiang Moli's words made a lot of sense.
