Chapter 19 I Don't Mind Having Multiple Stepfathers

An Hui looked at Jiang Moli's beautiful and delicate face, feeling surprised and astonished.

She originally thought that it was Jiang Moli who was fawning over her son.

But judging from Jiang Moli's behavior when taking and eating the canned food, it was obvious that her son was trying to please her and coax her.

As a mother, she knew best how proud and picky her son was.

All the girls introduced to me before were talented, beautiful, well-educated and well-mannered, but my son could find a lot of faults in them.

Now, he is very obedient to Jiang Moli, who has a lot of bad habits.

It's really like brine and tofu, one thing lowers another.

Although Jiang Moli is willful and unruly, judging from the way she confronts her stepsister, she is not really a brainless person.

An Hui stood up and said, "I understand everything. Let me say a few words of justice. Zhang Jiaming saved people first. He is a good comrade."

"That's right. If Jiaming hadn't happened to pass by, Xiaoqing would have died in the river." Jin Yulan hurriedly agreed.

Anhui said, "Because Zhang Jiaming is such a good comrade, I was inevitably caught in a dilemma when faced with this situation. That's why I turned to his leader, my son Xiaocheng. Xiaocheng was considerate of his subordinates and stepped in to help negotiate the cancellation of the engagement. That's how Xiaocheng and Jasmine met."

Just a few simple sentences not only explained how Lu Cheng and Jiang Moli met, but also clarified the rumor that Jiang Moli was hooking up with a man.

"In my opinion, this is God's will. Saving a person at once helped two couples get together. It's a good thing."

This final conclusion convinced most of the neighbors present.

But there are still some people who feel jealous and unfair about Jiang Moli's climb to a high position.

They had never encountered such a good thing, so why did Jiang Moli happen to encounter it?

"The Jiang family is celebrating today. Thank you to all the neighbors for coming to congratulate us. Come get some wedding candy and share in the good cheer."

Lu Cheng carried some fruit candies outside the yard and distributed them to everyone one by one, a handful to each person.

The neighbors took the candies and left with smiles on their faces.

The more Jiang Dahai looked at his son-in-law Lu Cheng, the more satisfied he was. He sighed at the good deeds of his ancestors and was about to go out to buy some good wine and food to entertain his mother-in-law.

Lu Cheng told Jiang Dahai not to worry, as he had already booked a banquet before coming, at the Guanghua Hotel opposite the machinery factory.

Because it is close, the leaders of the machinery factory usually like to go there for entertaining and social gatherings.

Lu Cheng arranged the banquet at Guanghua Hotel, obviously to show off for Jiang Dahai.

Over the years, Jiang Dahai has been laughed at and scolded for his daughter Jiang Moli for not being able to get married.

Now Jiang Moli is not only married, but also married to a military officer, so Jiang Dahai can be proud of himself.

Jiang Dahai wanted to invite the Zhang family to join him. Putting aside the marriage proposal, he and Zhang Tiesheng were close friends. There was no reason for him to go out and eat well and leave Zhang Tiesheng and his family at home in the cold.

But the banquet was booked by the Lu family, and he couldn't make the decision on his own.

An Hui saw his dilemma and smiled as she invited the Zhang family, "Let's go together. It's a rare opportunity for us to meet each other today."

Although Zhang Tiesheng is the head of the family, he has a dull personality, so it is Jin Yulan who makes decisions on external matters.

Jin Yulan really wanted to go, after all, she had never been to a restaurant in her life.

But she said politely, "No, no, you guys go ahead, I see Hongying has prepared some food in the kitchen, we can just cook something for ourselves."

Li Hongying said hurriedly, "How can that be? How can we let guests cook for themselves? I'll stay at home with my sister-in-law and the others, you guys go and eat."

Jiang Dahai urged: "Sister-in-law, come along. Tiesheng and I haven't seen each other for half a year. It's a good opportunity to have a drink today."

Only then did Jin Yulan agree.

Jiang Xiaoguang and several soldiers who helped deliver the things stayed behind to look after the betrothal gifts in the courtyard.

Lunch was easy to solve. There was rice and vegetables in the kitchen, but Jiang Xiaoguang and the others had to cook it themselves.

Jiang Dahai felt bad and took out his treasured Tuopai Daqu to invite Jiang Xiaoguang and others to drink, but Jiang Xiaoguang politely declined.

After learning that soldiers were not allowed to drink alcohol, Jiang Dahai went back to the kitchen to get a knife, cut off a large piece of fat and meat from the pig thigh brought from the Lu family, and asked Jiang Xiaoguang and others to braise it.

After receiving Lu Cheng's instructions, Jiang Xiaoguang happily accepted it.

Such a big piece, at least three pounds, I can have a delicious meal at noon today!
A group of nine people traveled in a grand manner, which attracted the curious eyes of the neighbors.

When they learned that Jiang Dahai was going to take his in-laws to Guanghua Hotel for dinner, everyone was extremely envious.

These days, it’s harder to have a meal in a restaurant than to celebrate the Chinese New Year.

...Jiang Dahai and An Hui walked side by side in the front, chatting about their family situations as they walked.

Li Hongying walked behind Zhang Tiesheng and Jin Yulan, chatting about this year's harvest.

Behind them were Jiang Qing and Zhang Jiaming, who walked side by side without speaking.

Jiang Moli and Lu Cheng were at the end and didn't say anything.

Zhang Jiaming looked back at Jiang Moli and Lu Cheng from time to time, feeling a little uncomfortable.

He never dreamed that Jiang Moli was so beautiful, like a fairy in a magazine.

If he hadn't mistaken the woman in the red dress for Jiang Moli that day...

Just as he was thinking about it, the hand hanging by his side was suddenly held by Jiang Qing beside him.

Jiang Qing's hands were smaller than his, with slender fingers and smooth skin.

Jiang Qing quickly let go of her hand, but Zhang Jiaming woke up.

It was really wrong for him to think those things just now. He should cherish a fiancée as virtuous and capable as Jiang Qing.

Lu Cheng looked at Jiang Moli, who was following him like a young wife, and liked her more and more.

Her face was as white as jade, with a pair of willow-leaf curved eyebrows, long and curled eyelashes that looked like butterfly wings when blinking, her cheeks were white with a rosy glow, and under her straight nose, her lips were red and plump.

Just looking at it makes me want to kiss it.

Lu Cheng's throat rolled and he called softly, "Wife."

Jiang Moli was slow to react and realized that Lu Cheng was calling her.

She rolled her eyes rudely, "Don't yell, I'm not familiar with you."

Men are born with a strong desire to conquer, especially those who are from a wealthy family like Lu Cheng. Jiang Moli's rebelliousness actually excites him.

He bent down slightly, his deep voice filled with tenderness and teasing: "Your father has agreed to our marriage."

"If he agrees, then you can marry him. I don't mind having another stepfather."

Lu Cheng laughed angrily, but his thoughts couldn't help but wander. It would be nice if he and his wife could have a daughter like his wife.

……

The road to Guanghua Hotel is the same as the road leading to the family area of ​​the machinery factory.

It was lunchtime, the time for people to get off work. Many workers on the road saw Jiang Dahai with so many people, and they couldn't help but ask him a few questions.

Word spread quickly, and the news that Jiang Dahai had just stepped into Guanghua Hotel and then brought his in-laws to the hotel spread throughout the machinery factory.

Lu Cheng booked a private room.

There was a large round table for ten people, and the dishes were also pre-ordered.

As soon as the nine people sat down, four cold dishes were served on the table, along with a bottle of five-liquid grain.

An Hui smiled and said, "Men are drinking, let's have some drinks. What kind of drinks do you have?"

The waiter skillfully announced the names of several drinks.

An Hui let Zhang's mother choose first.

Zhang's mother politely waved her hands repeatedly, "I'm a country woman, how would I understand these things? You order, I'll eat anything."

"I want slag juice!"

Without waiting for An Hui to ask, Jiang Moli raised her hand and replied.

An Hui glanced at her and turned to look at Jiang Qing on the other side.

Jiang Qing smiled, "I'll just drink some water."

Li Hongying is a person without a strong opinion. When she heard her daughter drinking water, she also said she wanted to drink water.

An Hui nodded and instructed the waiter, "Three bottles of hawthorn juice, and a glass of warm water for each of them."

Two country bumpkins!
The waiter gave Jiang Qing and her daughter a subtle look before leaving.

Jiang Qing subconsciously curled up her hands under the table.

She originally wanted to gain a reputation for frugality in front of An Hui, but it seemed that she was a little too pretentious and ended up looking petty.
