Xie Shizi's shameless daily life

Everyone chatted for a while until the maid came over and said, "The meal is ready," and then they all moved to the dining room.

Everyone sat down in the corresponding seats according to the order of seniority. Because the Zhang family was a merchant family, some rules were not as seriously taken as in other aristocratic families, so men and women sat together at the family dinner this time, not to mention that all those present were family members.

Oh, Xie Jin can barely be considered half a family member.

Zhao Shu walked towards the seat, and suddenly, someone stepped on the hem of her skirt. She pulled it but it didn't move.

Zhao Shu turned her head and saw Zhang Yining looking at her with an innocent face.

Zhao Shu then pulled at the hem of her skirt, but it still didn't move. She looked at Zhang Yining with a smile and said, "Third sister, please lift your feet. You are stepping on my skirt."

"Ah?" Zhang Yining covered her mouth with her hands in an exaggerated manner: "Sorry, I didn't notice it just now." Then, without raising her foot, she rubbed Zhao Shu's skirt parallel to hers and moved her foot away.

Zhao Shu looked at the hem of her skirt that was deformed by being stepped on and reflected the black mark. There was no emotion in her eyes. She raised her eyes and said calmly, "Thank you."

"Tsk." Zhang Yining glanced at her and said, "Boring."

During the meal, Zhang Yijing hardly moved her chopsticks. She just kept picking up food and pouring wine for her elders.

The old lady "Yijing" looked at her sensible granddaughter and said gently: "Although your wedding date is in the early spring of next year, you should slowly start embroidering the wedding dress now. A woman only gets married once in her life, so you can't be careless."

Zhang Yijing's gentle cheeks slowly turned red: "Yes, grandma."

"Big sister" Zhao Xueying was surprised: "You are engaged!"

Zhao Shu also looked at Zhang Yijing.

Zhang Yijing seemed a little embarrassed: "Yes, it's Brother Shiqing who is destined."

Zhao Shu and the others were all confused.

Li Ruomei, the wife of the first wife, explained with a smile: "It's Lu Shiqing, the eldest son of Prefect Lu in Jiangnan." There was a hint of boasting in her eyes and eyebrows. She was very satisfied with her daughter's marriage.

"Oh." Zhao Xueying said with a bit of disdain. It was just a prefect who was worthy of such joy. She said perfunctorily, "Then congratulations, sister."

Li Ruomei saw that Zhao Xueying didn't care, and her boastful expression froze.

Zhang Yijing said gently: "Thank you, sister."

Zhao Shu looked at the way Zhang Yijing's eyes lit up when she talked about her fiancé, and she must have some feelings for this "Brother Shi Qing".

It is a good thing to marry a good man. Zhao Shu said sincerely: "Congratulations, cousin Yijing."

Zhang Yining smiled gently: "Thank you."

"Ugh!" Zhang Yining suddenly covered her mouth and ran out.
The old lady looked at her from behind and asked worriedly, "What happened to Yi Ning?"

Zhang Yining's father, Zhang Xuanliang, who spent all his time in red-light district, waved his hand nonchalantly: "He must have had a stomachache."

"Come on, come on, ignore her, let's continue drinking."

The old lady looked at her little son with a look of disappointment. Although this little son was not born from her womb, she had treated him as her own son since he was young. He was fed and clothed better than his two elder brothers. She also hired a lot of teachers for him. However, he had grown up to be such a good-for-nothing. He did not do any serious work all day long and just went out to pursue women. Now he does not even act like a father.

Seeing that the third son's wife also looked indifferent, the old lady rubbed her forehead with a headache. Forget it, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. She is old and can't care so much.

After Zhang Yining left, she never came back. She only asked her personal maid to come and apologize to the old lady.

Everyone was preoccupied with Zhang Yijing's marriage, so this episode didn't leave any splash at all.

Zhao Shu drank a little too much at the banquet today, and needed Ah Ling's support to barely stand when she went back.

Everyone dispersed and went back to their own yards.

In the middle of the rockery, Zhao Shu felt dizzy. She pushed Ah Ling away and said vaguely, "Ah Ling, I feel really uncomfortable right now. Go to the kitchen and get me a bowl of hangover soup. I'll drink it before I go back."

Ah Ling looked around and saw no one. Then, seeing the girl's uncomfortable expression, she stamped her feet and said worriedly, "Young girl, you must wait for me here. I'll be back soon." After saying that, she glanced at Zhao Shu worriedly. Finally, she gritted her teeth and ran out.

Zhao Shu rubbed her head, and in order to make herself feel more comfortable, she leaned against the rockery, looking up with her eyes closed.

"huhu"

Zhao Shu felt a warm breath on her face. She opened her eyes dazedly and a handsome face appeared in front of her.

"Aren't you afraid of choking to death on your own vomit if you lie like this?" Xie Jin said venomously.

"Little brother, you are so handsome!" Zhao Shu looked at him and smiled foolishly.

Xie Jin was stunned for a moment and looked at her intently.

"Little brother" Zhao Shu said coquettishly: "I have a headache."

Xie Jin came back to his senses and looked at her with gritted teeth: "You deserve it!" But his hands touched her temples, rubbing them gently.

Zhao Shu squinted her eyes comfortably and leaned towards Xie Jin.

The soft touch in his arms made Xie Jin stiffen his body. He glanced at Zhao Shu, who had no idea what she was doing, and hesitantly placed his hand on her shoulder, trying to wake her up.

Just as he was about to move, Zhao Shu let out a "huh". Xie Jin looked at the well-behaved person in his arms and put his hand down.

At this moment, the well-behaved Zhao Shu frowned and closed her eyes: "I feel uncomfortable"

Xie Jin glared at Zhao Shu with gritted teeth, but held Zhao Shu's shoulders with both hands and let her lean slowly against the rockery. After doing all this, he carefully lifted her head, stretched out his right hand, and let the back of her head rest on his palm.

The woman closed her eyes and leaned in the man's big hand, breathing lightly, while the man held her tightly with his black eyes. The moonlight sprinkled on both of them, adding a sense of tranquility to the scene.

"Dump Dump"

The sound of footsteps came from a distance, and Xie Jin lowered his head and looked at Zhao Shu lovingly.

"Dangdang." The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Xie Jin carefully lifted up Zhao Shu's head, carefully pulled his hand out, gently put her head down, stood up and walked to the rockery on the other side.

Ah Ling came over hurriedly with the hangover soup. Seeing her daughter lying motionless on the rockery, she became anxious and quickly put the hangover soup on the ground. She gently shook Zhao Shu and said, "Wake up, daughter. Let's go back to the room and sleep."

Zhao Shu frowned and opened her eyes, then hesitantly rubbed her aching temple with her hand.

Ah Ling handed the hangover soup to Zhao Shu: "Miss, hangover soup."

Zhao Shu reached out to take it, drank it all in one gulp, handed the empty bowl to A Ling, and stood up with the help of the rockery.

"Let's go back." Zhao Shu said tiredly.

On the way back, Zhao Shu turned around and looked at the quiet rockery. She seemed to have seen Xie Jin there just now. Looking at the empty rockery, she frowned slightly. Could it be her illusion?
But looking at the pitch-black surroundings and the rockery without even a bird feather, let alone a person, Zhao Shu suddenly shuddered. Could it be that she had encountered a ghost?

Oh my god, this place is so scary!
Ah Ling looked at Zhao Shu who had stopped and said, "Girl, what's wrong with you?" As the girl looked over, it was all pitch black, there was nothing!

Zhao Shu got goosebumps all over her body. She rubbed her arms and swallowed, "A Ling, let's walk faster."

Only after the two of them walked away did Xie Jin come out from behind the rockery.

Looking at Zhao Shu's cowardly look when she left just now, he chuckled: "It turns out that she is still the same as when she was a child. She is afraid of ghosts."
