Chapter 29 Greasy (2 / 2)



After hearing this, Mu Bai smiled softly: "That's right. Now it's not like one person can feed the whole family. He has a wife to support and children in the future."

The atmosphere between the two did not seem to be affected by the previous episode, and they still maintained that rare tacit understanding.

"It's time to pay back the money that Mo Han lent us. Now that he has announced that he has obtained his marriage certificate, everyone has begun to consciously prepare to repay the money. After all, a new wife and future children will cost money." Mu Bai nodded in agreement. "Me too, I have to start paying back the money. I always thought he didn't need it urgently, so I delayed paying it back, but now it's time."

"You also borrowed money from him?" Wang Li widened his eyes and looked at Mu Bai in disbelief.

"I borrowed it a long time ago, but I just didn't tell you. My parents have always been against me joining the army, so I almost didn't bring any money when I left home. I borrowed it all from Mo Han." Mu Bai said frankly.

"Speaking of Mo Han, he is really an amazing guy. Before joining the army, he saved a lot of money by hunting and collecting herbs." Mu Bai was full of respect for Leng Mo Han.

"That's right. Mo Han would be an outstanding person even if he didn't become a soldier. But the army can better display his talents. He is definitely qualified." Wang Li agreed deeply.

Leng Mohan, holding a steaming meal in his hand, took out the key to open the door. Luo Jiaojiao, who was lying on the bed, had already moved when she heard the sound. She sat up, her eyes gleaming with anticipation.

She looked at Leng Mohan, her eyes full of hope, "I have put away all the clothes outside." There was a hint of expectation in her voice, as if she hoped to get his approval.

Leng Mohan felt the expectation in her eyes, but he felt helpless. He didn't know how to answer, so he could only nod stiffly, "Well, I understand."

Luo Jiaojiao looked at him, a hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes. But she didn't say much, just silently endured this indifference. Although she was a little disappointed.

Leng Mohan keenly caught the disappointment in Luo Jiaojiao's eyes, and his mood became complicated. He didn't want to see such a painful expression on this face that was always full of sunshine.

He looked at her quietly, but couldn't find the right words to comfort her. Finally, he could only simply invite her, "Come over for dinner." As he said that, he put the lunch box on the table and cast his eyes at Luo Jiaojiao with the same coldness as before.

Luo Jiaojiao nodded and walked to the dining table obediently. Leng Mohan carefully found a small bowl for her and began to serve her rice.

At the dinner table, Luo Jiaojiao looked at the fresh fish in the bowl, and a trace of desire flashed in her eyes. However, the fear of fish bones made her hesitate, and her chopsticks hovered in the air for a moment, but finally did not fall.

Leng Mohan specially left fish for her, but found that she was reluctant to eat.

He frowned slightly and asked with some confusion: "You don't eat fish?" Luo Jiaojiao hesitated a little. She nodded, then quickly shook her head, as if she was hesitating about how to answer.

Her actions caught Leng Mohan's attention. He looked at her, waiting for her explanation.

Luo Jiaojiao sensed Leng Mohan's impatience, and she hurriedly explained: "I want to eat it, but I'm afraid of fish bones. In the past, Aunt Zhong helped me pick out the fish bones before I dared to eat it."

Luo Jiaojiao was deeply worried, fearing that he would feel the slightest dislike for her because of this.

She bit her lower lip lightly, trying to hide her inner uneasiness. Finally, she mustered up her courage and said softly, "You should eat this fish. I won't eat it."
