Chapter 21 Marriage Certificate

Lu Cheng lowered his eyes to look at her, "I guess not."

"why?"

"Because no one is better than me."

"Cut~"

Although the man was very narcissistic, he surprisingly did not make her feel greasy or disgusted.

Probably because it’s true.

Lu Cheng's facial features are not delicate, and because of his dark skin and sharp eyebrows, he even looks a bit fierce.

But her figure with broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs is really amazing. You can tell at first glance that she definitely has abdominal muscles.

Noticing that Lu Cheng's eyes were following her, as if waiting for her answer, Jiang Moli replied:
"Apart from my childhood sweetheart Zhang Jiaming, I've never dated anyone else in my life."

"You don't have any romantic feelings for Jiaming. Rounding it off, I'm also your first love."

Lu Cheng was obviously very satisfied with this conclusion, and his expression softened a little.

But he had no idea that the life Jiang Moli was talking about was actually only four days.

In her previous life, Jiang Moli had dated three times, but they all ended in failure.

After dating the first boyfriend for half a month, having two meals together and watching a movie with him, he said he had no feelings for her. I broke up with him quickly and got back together with my ex.

She dated the second boyfriend for two months, but the relationship ended before they kissed because she vomited because of his bad breath.

She met the third one through a game. They chatted online for three months and felt pretty good about each other. Just when she was about to meet him in person, he actually invited her to visit Thailand. She was so scared that she immediately blocked all his contact information.

"Let's go back to riding."

Lu Cheng looked at her and asked, "You want to ride a bike?"

Jiang Moli nodded, "You ride my dad's, and I'll ride the new one."

In fact, as soon as she entered the yard, she fell in love with the Phoenix brand women's bicycle.

The contrasting color combination of beige and light brown, with a beige woven bag hanging in front of the car, is very consistent with her aesthetic taste.

She thought it was Jiang Qing's betrothal gift and she even thought about "robbing" it, but she didn't expect it was hers.

"Okay, but first, come with me to the car. I have something for you."

Jiang Moli: "...You have a car? What kind of car?"

Lu Cheng pointed at the military jeep in front of him and said, "The car is not mine, it belongs to my father. I am not at this level yet."

Jiang Moli looked at the jeep, then at him, "Why didn't you tell me you had a car earlier? Why are you riding a bicycle?"

Lu Cheng laughed, "I thought you wanted to ride."

"That's because I don't like crowded buses."

Lu Cheng considerately helped Jiang Moli open the passenger door.

When she approached, she smelled a faint smell of alcohol on the man. Jiang Moli asked, "You've been drinking, can you drive?"

"Just two small cups, no problem."

Seeing that his face looked normal and his eyes were clear, Jiang Moli thought that the man did not seem to be someone who was uncertain in his mind, so she reminded him, "Then drive slowly," and then got in the car.

After she sat down, Lu Cheng helped her fasten her seat belt, then closed the car door and got in from the other side.

Tsk, quite a gentleman.

……

The jeep's cabin was very simple, like a metal box, with two chairs in the front and a bench in the back. Compared with modern cars of later generations, it was simply a rough draft.

But in this day and age, owning a four-wheeled vehicle is something that ordinary people would not even think about.

"Your father is also a leader, right?"

Meeting Jiang Moli's curious eyes, Lu Cheng smiled, "It should be our dad."

Jiang Moli was about to retort that we hadn't reached that point yet, when she saw Lu Cheng take out a package from his military bag and stuff it into her arms.

"what?"

Lu Cheng motioned for her to open it.

Jiang Moli opened the cloth bag and found a passbook on top.

The balance in the passbook is 3806.45.

In this era of food and clothing shortages, having a savings of more than 3,000 yuan is considered to be a sign of wealth.

Lu Cheng observed Jiang Moli's expression and explained:
"My current monthly salary is 109 yuan. I used to send it home to my mother for safekeeping, but I'll give it all to you from now on. I don't ask how you spend your money, but for the long-term benefit of our small family, I'll try not to touch the money in my passbook. You can use my monthly allowance for your expenses. Of course, this is my personal opinion."

At the current price, 109 is more than enough for two people.

You know, Jiang Dahai's salary of 68 yuan can support a family of five.

Beneath the passbook were bills: grain coupons, sugar coupons, meat coupons, cloth coupons, vegetable coupons, industrial coupons, and so on. Each coupon was neatly organized and tied with rubber bands. It was obvious that these were Lu Cheng's assets.

Jiang Moli glanced at the man teasingly, "Aren't you afraid that I'll run away with your belongings?"

"Where could you run to?"

Also.

This place is not like the later times, where you can travel across the country with just one train ticket. In this era, you must have a letter of introduction to travel. Otherwise, you can't even buy a ticket or stay in a hotel. Once you are stopped by public security personnel, you will be deported.

"I've already applied for family housing, but it won't be arranged soon. You can stay with my parents for now, and you can move in when they get one."

"Don't worry, you don't have to do the housework. My aunt has been living in my house all these years, helping to take care of my parents' daily life."

To put it bluntly, this aunt is a nanny.

Due to the current crackdown on capitalist practices, we dare not call ourselves nannies to outsiders, and mostly use the name of relatives staying with us.

"Comrade Jiang Moli."

Jiang Moli turned and looked at the man.

"Three turns and one ring, 500 betrothal gifts, and all your salary after marriage must be handed over. No matter how you spend your money, you don't have to do housework, and you don't have to live with your in-laws. I've done it all. As for children, if you don't want to have them now, then don't have them. Do you have any other requirements?"

Jiang Moli had just said it casually at the time, with the intention of making things difficult for the child marriage.

Unexpectedly, the man not only remembered it, but also did it all.

"Not yet. If there is, I will let you know."

"So, you are very satisfied with me and are willing to marry me?"

Looking at the man's serious expression, Jiang Moli teased casually, "Isn't it a bit late for you to propose now?"

The parents of both parties have met, the engagement dinner has been had, and she has even accepted the red envelope. Is there any room for refusal?

"If you don't refuse, then you agree."

As he spoke, Lu Cheng handed her two notebooks.

One is a household registration book with a brown cardboard cover, and the other is a marriage certificate with a red plastic cover.

When Jiang Moli saw the marriage certificate, her eyelids jumped.

When I opened the marriage certificate and saw the name on it, my heart was completely broken.

"Comrade Lu Cheng, please explain. When did we get married? How come I didn't know?"

"The day before yesterday, Xiaopeng came to me and said that the Youth League Office was giving you and Uncle Jiang a hard time. He also gave me your household registration booklet and asked me to get the marriage certificate with you first. I thought you knew about this."

Jiang Peng, you are dead!
Jiang Moli gritted her teeth and looked at the date of issuance on the marriage certificate. It was today.

"Does my dad know that we got the marriage certificate?"

"I haven't had time to talk about it yet. I was too busy this morning."

"I don't think you dare!"

Lu Cheng touched his nose guiltily.

Although being denied the marriage certificate was infuriating, Jiang Moli wasn't actually too angry.

The man has excellent conditions in all aspects, so she is not at a disadvantage, but she always feels insecure.

Jiang Dahai and Jiang Peng were anxious to marry her off because they didn't want her to go to the countryside, but why was Lu Cheng so anxious to marry her?

She looked Lu Cheng up and down suspiciously, "Are you okay?"

Before her, Lu Cheng had never had a boyfriend, so there was no such thing as a second marriage with her being a stepmother.

The cadres in the army must have no problem with their character. The only questionable thing is their health.

"I've been stationed at the border for these years and have suffered several injuries, big and small, but I've recovered from them all. Otherwise, I would have retired long ago."

"That's not what I'm asking. Your male function is normal, right?"

After asking, Jiang Moli's face turned red first.

Lu Cheng was not much better than her. His ears were red as if dripping blood, but his face looked normal.

"Do I look abnormal?"

"It's hard to say. You can't tell from this thing, or maybe you were originally normal, but the injury affected you. Look at you, you have a pretty face, a good figure, a good family background, and a lot of good skills. If you just call out, there are plenty of outstanding young women for you to choose from. Why did you choose someone like me? It's hard not to be suspicious."

"Is that what you think of me? You think I have a pretty face, a nice figure, a good family background, and a lot of good skills?"

Although she said these words, why does it feel so shameful when they are repeated by a man?

"That's not the point..."

Lu Cheng: "This is the key, Comrade Jiang Moli. Your opinion of me is very important. It seems that you are very satisfied with me."

Jiang Moli closed the marriage certificate and asked, "What about you? What do you think of me?"
