Jin's mother's bedroom was right next to her. As soon as Jin's father's aura was released, Jin's mother sensed it and immediately rushed home. At the same time, an even more powerful aura suppressed Jin's father's aura, which surprised Jin's mother. However, it did not change Jin's mother's direction and speed.
After a dozen steps, she arrived at the door of the living room. Looking at the scene inside the living room, Jin's mother was stunned!
"What... is going on?"
What she saw was not what she had imagined. Mother Jin thought that this time, like before, she would see Jin Chen being suppressed by Father Jin's aura and being taught a lesson.
Jin Mu walked so fast because she wanted to plead for Jin Chen. However, she did not expect that what she saw this time was completely different from before.
This time, she saw Father Jin being suppressed! To say he was suppressed was a bit much; it was more of a showdown of power, with Father Jin at a disadvantage. He could resist, but it was very difficult!
Of course, he didn't kneel down in embarrassment like he did before when Jin Chen was oppressed by his father's aura.
Mother Jin thought, "I never thought that Xiaochen would be stronger than me after only being promoted to a warrior for a few days! Xiaochen is truly a genius!"
Mother Jin always thought her son was better than that bastard, but everyone said Jin Chen's talent wasn't as good as that bastard's. Now, facts speak louder than words! Let's see who still looks down on Xiaochen and me.
Especially after seeing Jin's father being suppressed, I felt even more relieved!
I screamed in my heart, "I told you not to give me a hard time! I told you not to look down on our Xiaochen! I told you to use your warrior's aura to suppress this and that all day long! Now you're being suppressed by my son, right? You deserve it!"
After thinking it over carefully, she saw that Father Jin was about to collapse, and then saw Jin Chen's ferocious and helpless look. Mother Jin knew it was her turn to take action and immediately shouted, "Xiaochen, why don't you stop it now?"
Jin Chen immediately withdrew his aura. Sensing Jin Chen's aura had subsided, Jin's father quickly withdrew his aura. He took a few deep, sharp breaths.
Jin Chen knew that what he had done this time was a bit too much. Fearing being scolded, he immediately said, "Father, Mother, good night!"
Mother Jin secretly said to Jin Chen: "Let's go quickly, I will help you deal with your father!"
Jin Chen nodded gratefully and ran away.
Mother Jin stepped forward, coughed twice, and said, "Master, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Father Jin finally came to his senses, glanced around, and found that Jin Chen was gone. He let out a long sigh and said, "I'm fine! Sorry to have worried you."
Father Jin had never spoken to Mother Jin in such a friendly manner before.
As the head of the family, Father Jin's authority is very heavy! Moreover, as the only remaining warrior in the family, he is also very proud!
Although Mother Jin has always been very influential in the family, she is still far behind Father Jin! She cannot completely live up to the marital rivalry of the former head of the family and his wife. Mother Jin has no confidence at all when she speaks!
Therefore, she couldn't be as confident as the previous mistress because the traditional system of succession by legitimate sons was being challenged. Her son was not the heir the family wanted to cultivate!
She has no son who is about to become a warrior or is already a warrior, to support her! To back her up!
Now, things are finally back to normal! Because of Jin Chen's strength, Father Jin had to face Mother Jin! Therefore, Mother Jin got the treatment she deserved!
The respected Jin's mother was so moved that her eyes blushed as she said, "It's okay. After all, we are an old married couple."
"Where's Xiaochen?"
"He knows he's wrong and feels bad for staying here. He's already said goodnight and gone back to sleep."
"It's okay to go back! We'll talk about it tomorrow."
"Master, Xiaochen knows he's wrong, so please don't be angry and punish him!"
Father Jin was stunned! "Punishment?" Knowing that Mother Jin and Jin Chen would misunderstand, he laughed and said, "Why would I punish Xiaochen? I haven't even given him a reward yet!"
"ah?!"
"Jin Chen told me he'd be promoted to War Lieutenant tomorrow. To be honest, I didn't quite believe it at the time. I thought Xiaochen was just trying to cheer me up because I was sad. So I just chatted with him and took the opportunity to teach him a lesson. But, I didn't expect that what Xiaochen said was actually true!"
"What? Xiaochen is going to be promoted to War Lieutenant tomorrow! How is this possible? He's only been training for a few days?!"
"Nothing is impossible! Xiaochen has had a fortuitous encounter, a stroke of luck! Oh, and Xiaochen said that two of his comrades have been promoted to lieutenants today. You can go visit them tomorrow. If that's true, wow... they're really going to rise!"
Jin Chen's two comrades, Jin's father and mother, were both well aware of the family's situation. After all, they were their son's comrades, so they naturally had to investigate thoroughly.
The two were respectively the heirs of a fallen noble family and a warrior family, yet they unexpectedly rose to the rank of war lieutenant!
Even before the Corpse Demon Disaster, a warrior of this level would have been considered a significant figure in the territory. Even more so after the Corpse Demon Disaster, when warriors dwindled and the overall strength dropped by a level.
War lieutenants were already at the same level as the lords. Furthermore, there were two of them, the same number as the lords' families.
No, it’s just today. Tomorrow, after Xiaochen is promoted to war lieutenant, it will be a three-on-two situation.
Ultimately, in this world, strength is everything! From now on, it's hard to say who will have the final say in Water Village!
As the head of a noble family that had stood firm for a thousand years, he naturally understood what he should do now. Of course, he should invest and befriend the other party before they became public and fully ascended to power!
The situations of the two families are rather special, so it is time for the lady to engage in diplomacy.
Even though Xiaochen and they are comrades-in-arms who share life and death, family relationships must be maintained!
"Fang Yuan, that kid, was promoted to war lieutenant today?!" Jin's mother exclaimed in disbelief.
Father Jin discovered something very important from Mother Jin's way of addressing Fang Yuan, and asked, "Have you met Fang Yuan? Are you familiar with him?"
Otherwise, how can we use the word "child" to describe it?
"Fang Yuan is the son of a former best friend of mine! We used to be very close! Even after getting married, there's no conflict of interest, and our relationship remains strong. Three years ago, during the plague, she sold her daughter to our family in exchange for life-saving food and medicine to save others. By the way, you should have seen her daughter too; she's Xiaowei."
"Xiao Wei, it's her! Yes, I do remember her!" A small figure like the maid before is now extraordinary! The sister of the war captain! Even he has to maintain sufficient respect for her.
Father Fang sighed, "I didn't expect that Madam would have such a deep connection with the Fang Yuan family."
I used to think that Jin Mu was too naive in her words and deeds, but I never expected that she would have such good fortune! Not only did she have a legitimate son, a war captain, but she also saved the life of another war captain's family!
With such a relationship, Mother Jin has someone to rely on!
