Chapter 771 - 765 Marry a Stepmother
Because when it came to the issues between his wives and concubines, he truly had nothing to say.
The eldest son, Jie, watched his father with a strained face, and only after quite a while did he let out a stifled grunt, bowed with hands clasped together, and said, "Your son dares not."
Magistrate Jie huffed angrily, "You even dare to spout words such as ’lead the charge and die before the soldiers’; what else is there that you wouldn’t dare to do? You are clearly resentful towards me. You can resent me, but you must not joke with your lineage and your life. Just look at the state our house is in now, with no woman in charge, the inner courtyard is almost in chaos."
The eldest son, Jie, snorted coldly in his heart, thinking: Wasn’t it a mess even when a woman was in charge?
He glanced at Jie’s second son and, seeing his elder brother’s extremely unfriendly gaze coming towards him, he hurriedly turned away.
Magistrate Jie followed the gaze of his eldest son to the second son and said, "You too, now that you’re without a wife or concubine, there’s no need to lead the charge and die before the soldiers. When will you marry a wife and bring her home?"

Magistrate Jie felt his head throb as he said, "Does she even want to be with you anymore? If she doesn’t want to, you shouldn’t bother her. Haven’t you caused her enough misery?"
