Xie Shizi's shameless daily life

Just as Xie Jin was about to speak, he was stopped by a shout: "You rebellious son!" The shout was followed by a heavy slap in the face.

Xie Jin's face was hit sideways. He raised his eyes to look at the person who came and called out calmly, "Mother."

Zhou Huijie pointed at his nose and cursed: "You still know that I am your mother, you audacious, ignorant bastard!"

Xie Jin lowered his head and let her scold him.

Zhou Huijie looked at him angrily for a while, then turned around and smiled apologetically at Wang Qizhang: "This rebellious son is really hard to manage. Please forgive me, sir."

Wang Qizhang waved his hands quickly: "The prince has always been a rare talent, others can't even envy him enough."

Duke Xian also walked in at this time, and Wang Qizhang hurriedly saluted him upon seeing him.

Xie Jingrong accepted the gift with a cold expression, while Zhou Huijie touched his hands with both hands: "No, no, it's the father's fault if the son doesn't teach well. My husband is unworthy of this gift!"

Wang Qi Zhang stood up with a wry smile. What could he say? Could he say, Madam, you are right, and that Prince Xie's rampant behavior was caused by the Duke's improper discipline? If he really said that, I am afraid his official career would be over!

Zhou Huijie glared at Xie Jin, then turned to Wang Qizhang and said kindly: "Sir, you also know that my rebellious son will go to the battlefield tomorrow. In case he has something on his mind, we have been following his wishes during this period of time." As he said this, he glared at Xie Jin again.

"He said he was attracted to your daughter, so we came to propose marriage without stopping. Your Excellency, you kindly agreed to the marriage without considering that this rebellious son would go to the battlefield. You don't know how grateful we are to you. This way, the things that this rebellious son is worried about can be properly dealt with. Then, he can be fully alert on the battlefield to deal with the evil bandits, and I feel much more at ease."

"Now I don't know what this rebellious son is thinking. He wants to cancel this marriage. I know that he is being overbearing by doing so. But, but if I don't fulfill his wish, he will take this matter to the battlefield, which will inevitably distract him. What if, what if something bad happens?" As she said this, she began to cry.

Wang Qi Zhang looked at Zhou Huijie with embarrassment. He understood that if he did not agree to cancel the marriage, then any accident that happened to Xie Jin on the battlefield in the future would be blamed on him!

Wang Qizhang really wanted to curse him as shameless, but looking at Xie Jingrong standing next to Zhou Huijie like a door god, he swallowed and didn't dare!

If he was scolded, he would have no chance of pursuing a career in the government and would have to go back to the countryside to farm. Moreover, if he canceled the marriage out of righteousness, he might even be able to get some help from the Duke of Xian in the future.

After Wang Qizhang finished analyzing the pros and cons, he said with a sense of righteousness and a bit of melancholy: "The prince is about to go to war, and he really can't let such a small matter disturb his mind. How can my daughter's marriage be compared to the importance of national affairs? So, our two families will exchange the engagement letter today."

Zhou Huijie nodded regretfully: "I will call the servants to return your daughter's engagement letter to you, sir."

With tears in her eyes, Zhou Huijie ordered her servants to return home quickly and bring the engagement letter. Then she and Wang Qizhang started chatting with a look of sympathy, talking about their children who had caused them so much trouble and this regrettable marriage.

While the two were talking, the servants of Duke Xian's mansion quickly brought the girl's engagement letter, and Wang Qizhang also prepared the boy's engagement letter. The two took their son/daughter's engagement letter from each other with regret, and said goodbye with tears.

Xie Jin's family of three got on the carriage. Zhou Huijie changed her previous sadness and hurriedly stroked her son's handsome face, saying distressedly: "Mother was too harsh. Go back quickly. Mother will give you some ice to reduce the swelling."

Xie Jingrong said coldly, "Didn't you want to beat Jin'er to death just now? Why did you change your mind now?"

Zhou Huijie gave him an angry look, and that look said: Don't ask questions when you already know the answer!

Zhou Huijie asked worriedly, "Why do you suddenly want to cancel this marriage?"

Xie Jingrong continued: "I figured it out."

Zhou Huijie glared at him: "I didn't ask you!"

Xie Jin said calmly: "Nothing, I just suddenly felt that if I died on the battlefield, it would be too unfair to Miss Wang. Rather than letting her be known as a fiancée in the future, it is better to cancel the engagement early." Xie Jingrong sneered when he heard his son's high-sounding words.

Zhou Huijie patted him and said, "Pfft, pfft, pfft, what nonsense are you talking about? You will definitely go there safely and come back safely!"

Xie Jin smiled soothingly: "Don't worry, mother. Your son will come back safely."

Xie Jin suddenly looked at Zhou Huijie with a serious face: "Mother, this ridiculous thing happened because of me. I'm afraid Miss Wang's future marriage will not be smooth. I hope mother can look at me and help Miss Wang with her future marriage."

Zhou Huijie: "Don't worry, your father and I will not tell anyone about the cancellation of the engagement. After you have been on the battlefield for a while, we will find a good excuse to tell everyone that you cancelled the engagement after you went to the battlefield. Your father and I will not take back the betrothal gifts this time. We will just treat it as a little compensation for the girl. I will also pay attention to the girl's marriage in the future and will definitely help her find a better man than you to marry her off."

Xie Jin bowed to her and said, "Thank you for your hard work, mother."

Zhou Huijie glared at him and said, "You know how hard I work, but why do you cause me so much trouble?!"

Xie Jin is a young man who corrects his mistakes: "I won't be so reckless next time."

Zhou Huijie couldn't really blame him. After hearing him admit his mistake in time, her heart was at a mess. She hurriedly talked to him about other things to divert his attention, fearing that her son would be sad about the broken engagement.

Time passed by like flowing water, and the hundred thousand troops were ready to go, standing under the city wall waiting for the order from the high lord of the border mountain.

Among those who went on this expedition, Zhao Yao held the highest official position, so Your Majesty allowed Zhao Yao's family to come to the city tower to see him off.

As for Xie Jin, although he did not hold a high official position in this trip, his father did, so His Majesty also allowed Duke Xian Guo and his wife to come to the city tower to see off their son.

Zhao Shu looked at her father who was sitting on a tall horse in front of the army, and she felt someone's gaze falling on her.

Zhao Shu turned her head to look to the side, and unexpectedly met Xie Jin's gaze.

Zhao Shuren was stunned for a moment, then she turned her gaze away from Xie Jin.

Zhou Huijie had been looking at her son. Seeing that her son was looking somewhere, she couldn't help but look in the direction he was looking.

When Zhou Huijie saw that her son was looking at Zhao Shu, she became very nervous. She whispered to her husband excitedly, "Look, Jin'er has been looking at Zhao Shu from the beginning till now!"
