Chapter 104 Painting Cake
Jiang Moli did not agree to Jiang Peng's request, but she did not refuse it either.

She needs to think carefully about joining the army, since there is still half a month left.

Afraid that it would be unsafe for Jiang Moli to walk at night, the father and son sent her back to the military compound together.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the evening breeze gently caresses my cheeks.

Jiang Moli and Jiang Peng walked in front, talking as they walked.

Jiang Dahai followed the siblings slowly with his hands behind his back, a rare kind look in his eyes.

Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, the brother and sister have grown from little kids to adults.

Jiang Moli handed the unsent birthday red envelope to Jiang Peng, "Take it."

"Thank you, sis, hehe!"

Jiang Peng smiled and put the red envelope in his pocket.

"You're 18 now. You should be more sensible and stop fooling around all day. Our family is relying on you from now on."

"Don't worry, sister, I will do my best."

Thinking of Jiang Peng's two cannon fodder brothers, Jiang Moli asked with concern: "What are Shi Yu and Zhang Lei doing recently?"

Speaking of good brothers, Jiang Peng was a little depressed, "Zhang Lei went to the Great Northern Wilderness, and Shi Yu was still doing that thing with his brother-in-law."

This result was within Jiang Moli's expectations.

When you are young and frivolous, you will never turn back until you hit the wall.

As I said, let go of the desire to help others and respect their fate.

"How are your driving lessons going?"

"I've already passed the theory test. Next week I'll take the practical test. If you pass it, you'll get your certificate of completion."

"Study hard and drive for your brother-in-law."

Jiang Peng's eyes were brighter than lanterns. "Really? But at my current level, my brother-in-law doesn't have a car, right?"

"Just because he doesn't have one now doesn't mean he won't have one in the future. With his abilities, he'll definitely be a chief in the future."

Being able to reach the battalion level at the age of 26 shows his outstanding ability.

As long as you don't make any mistakes in principle, your future promotion path will be smooth.

In fact, she would sometimes feel itchy and want the system to check Lu Cheng's ending in the original book.

But I am also afraid that knowing too much will make life tiring.

That's fine now.

The big pie that Jiang Moli painted made Jiang Peng feel particularly satisfied.

When his brother-in-law has a car, he will at least be a group leader. Then he will be the group leader's exclusive driver. Wouldn't that be very powerful?

Noticing that Jiang Dahai behind her was somewhat neglected, Jiang Moli walked over and said, "Dad, don't be so dejected. Are you out of money? If you have no money, tell me."

Seeing Jiang Moli open her bag, Jiang Dahai subconsciously thought that she was going to give him money, and he couldn't help feeling touched.

Although he can earn his own money now and doesn't need his daughter's support, his daughter giving him money is a filial piety...

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Jiang Moli take out a handkerchief, cover her nostrils with it and blow her nose hard.

Jiang Dahai looked up at the sky in silence.

"Ask you, Dad, are you out of money?"

Jiang Dahai glared at him angrily, "No money, what's the matter?"

Jiang Moli said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you had no money? Come, let me tell you how I lived when I had no money."

Jiang Dahai: “…”

……

When Jiang Moli returned to her husband's house, Lu Dezhao and An Hui had already had dinner.

Seeing that she was holding an enamel basin, Lu Dezhao was curious: "Xiao Jiang, what are you carrying?"

"I brought some lobster back for you to try from our dinner at home."

lobster?

Lu Dezhao and An Hui were both shocked, and even Ma Hongmei, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, ran out to join in the fun.

They had heard of lobsters but had never eaten them. They were said to be creatures of the sea and very difficult to catch.

Under the expectant gaze of the three people, Jiang Moli opened the lid of the enamel basin.

"...Xiao Jiang, aren't you a shrimp?" "Shrimp is the local dialect for it. Its real name is crayfish. It's easy to eat. First, chew the brain, then peel the shell and eat the tail meat."

Jiang Moli finished explaining and went back to her room.

Lu Dezhao, An Hui and Ma Hongmei looked at each other.

Although they didn't think lobsters would be delicious, Lu Dezhao was the first to bravely try it because it was his daughter-in-law's intention.

An Hui and Ma Hongmei watched him eat.

"Sixth brother, how does it taste?"

"It's delicious! You guys try it too!"

After Lu Dezhao finished eating, he happily picked a big one and handed it to An Hui.

An Hui was skeptical and imitated him by taking a bite of the shrimp brain.

The first taste is intensely spicy, followed by the fresh fragrance of the condiments, and then a hint of sweetness that blooms on the tip of the tongue.

Seeing that the old couple were eating with relish, Ma Hongmei sat down too.

When Jiang Moli changed her clothes and came out, there were a lot of shrimp shells piled in front of the three of them.

Lu Dezhao praised her, "Xiao Jiang, these shrimps are cooked really well!"

Ma Hongmei said, "How is this made? It doesn't taste fishy at all, and it's very fragrant."

There are a lot of these things in the ditches and fields in rural areas, but no one eats them because they have a strong fishy smell.

Jiang Moli sat down and told Ma Hongmei in detail how to cook crayfish.

"Aunt, tomorrow I'll ask my brother to go to the countryside and grab half a bucket so you can practice."

"Okay!"

Lu Dezhao rushed to agree on behalf of Ma Hongmei.

This fishy thing tasted even better than meat when cooked, but the portion was too small and it was gone before I could enjoy it.

This was exactly the purpose of Jiang Moli bringing back crayfish for the old couple.

If she had directly said that she wanted to eat this thing and asked Ma Hongmei to make it for her, the Lu family would probably think that she was mentally ill. After all, people these days don't think shrimps are good things.

Now that they have all tasted the spicy crayfish, if she says she wants to eat it again, the three of them will probably be more eager than her.

……

Jiang Qing was so worried that she couldn't sleep the whole night.

She was afraid that Lu Cheng would find out that she was the one who spread the rumors and send her back to her hometown. She was even more afraid that it would affect Zhang Jiaming's promotion.

She regretted it so much that she wanted to slap herself twice.

She waited until dawn and fell into a deep sleep, only to be awakened by a knock on the door.

When he opened the door and saw Zhang Jiaming, he was overjoyed, but then he remembered the rumors and his face turned pale again.

"Jiaming, have you told Lu Ying about the rumors? What did he say?"

"Well, Lu Ying has already found out..."

Jiang Qing's heart sank.

"...It was Lu Ying's niece, Lu Tingting, who spread the rumor. She has a bad relationship with Jiang Moli. Lu Ying only told me about this. Don't tell anyone else."

There is always a bright future after a sudden turn of events!
Jiang Qing's heart, which had stopped beating suddenly, started beating again.

God was really kind to her, letting Lu Tingting take the blame for her.

If she wasn't afraid of scaring Zhang Jiaming, she would have laughed out loud.

The stone in her heart fell, and Jiang Qing suddenly felt hungry.

From yesterday until now, she has been so worried about the rumors that she hasn't had time to eat.

"Jiaming, I'm a little hungry. Can you accompany me to the town to buy some food and some daily necessities?"

Zhang Jiaming looked at her with burning eyes, and placed his hands on her waist. "Xiaoqing, I miss you."

Jiang Qing's face flushed with shyness, and she said angrily, "Let's talk about it when we get back."

"I'll be quick, just two minutes."

"..."

Two minutes later, the couple dressed and went out.
