Chapter 55

Upon hearing this, although Su Xuan had already known through mind-reading, he couldn't help but feel happy, took another look at Zou Zou Qian, and met her gaze again.

This time, Zou Zou Qian’s gaze did not dodge, but her pretty face became even redder, and her little heart was pounding wildly.

Su Xuan smiled and nodded slightly at her, then stood up and bowed slightly to Zou Zou Chuan: "I am also quite fond of Miss Zou; I agree to this matter!"

"That’s great!"

Zou Zou Chuan and Zou Zou Qian were both overjoyed upon hearing this.

Zou Zou Chuan immediately replied: "Then it is settled? My little daughter will stay here with the General from today on;"

"After I go back, I will prepare the dowry as soon as possible and send it over; I will certainly make the General satisfied."

Seeing Zou Zou Chuan’s impatient appearance, Su Xuan was also amused; this father-in-law was straightforward!

However, he still hurriedly stopped him: "No hurry!"

"Since the matter is settled, I naturally won't go back on my word!"

"Miss Zou Qian’er is so beautiful, I can't bear to go back on my word either!"

"However, I have already received His Majesty’s order and plan to lead troops to Yanzhou to support the suppression of the rebellion in two days; I will not stay long in Wancheng;"

"Therefore, let’s slow things down!"

"After I return from suppressing the rebellion, we will hold the marriage ceremony, how about that?"

Although it was only taking a concubine, she was his first concubine, and the Zou family was so sensible, so he still had to do the etiquette properly.

Moreover, as a transmigrator, Su Xuan’s concept of women still followed that of his previous life.

To him, whether it was a legal wife or a concubine, as long as she was his woman, he basically treated them equally in his heart.

Therefore, he would not look down on or ignore her feelings just because Zou Qian’er was a concubine.

"Is that so?"

Upon hearing this, Zou Zou Chuan was stunned for a moment, then immediately smiled and indicated: "That doesn't matter! Zou Qian’er will still stay here to accompany the General for these few days; as for the dowry, I will send it directly to the General’s home in Dengxian later!"

"It just so happens that I should also go to pay respects to Lord Su Lie and the General’s mother to let them know, right?"

"When the General is about to depart, just send someone to take Zou Qian’er to Dengxian!"

"As for the wedding, it can wait until the General returns."

In short, he had one attitude: Zou Zou Qian would stay here today.

He wished they could consummate the relationship now and settle it completely.

He figured that with Su Xuan’s reputation, once the raw rice was cooked into porridge, he wouldn't go back on his word or act shamelessly.

Otherwise, Su Xuan’s reputation would stink.

Even if the public relations were good afterward, it would leave a stain that people would criticize.

Zou Zou Chuan believed Su Xuan wouldn't go that far.

He had confidence in his daughter’s charm.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have treated his daughter as the future of the family.

"Ah, this... alright! Then let it be as you say, father-in-law!"

Upon hearing this, Su Xuan was slightly startled, then happily agreed.

Anyway, he wasn't losing anything.

Zou Zou Qian to the side was even more shy and lowered her head, unfortunately unable to see her feet.

"Haha! Good! Then Zou Qian’er is left to you, son-in-law! I will take my leave first! There are still things to do at home!"

When Zou Zou Chuan heard this "son-in-law," he felt so comfortable!

Immediately, he looked up and laughed loudly, gave Zou Zou Qian a wink, then cupped his hands at Su Xuan, and without waiting for Su Xuan to see him off, he hurriedly turned and left.

He did not drag his feet in the slightest.

And Zou Zou Qian was left here with Su Xuan.

This left Su Xuan and Zou Zou Qian looking at each other, finding it quite funny in their hearts.

However, Su Xuan still took Zou Zou Qian to chase after him and saw Zou Zou Chuan out of the mansion.

Then, Su Xuan took the initiative to hold Zou Zou Qian’s hand and went to the study, waved away the personal guards, and let Old Dian Wei stand guard far away outside.

"Zou Qian’er! From now on, you are my woman! I will treat you well!"

Then, Su Xuan sat down, gently took Zou Zou Qian into his arms, and said softly.

"Hmm!"

Zou Zou Qian nodded softly, leaned her head against Su Xuan’s chest, and said: "General, please take care of me for the rest of my life!"

After a night of fish and dragon dancing,

Su Xuan rarely woke up an hour late,

Leaving behind the exhausted Zou Zou Qian, who was still sleeping, Su Xuan got up, walked to the martial arts arena, and began his morning exercise.

Although he had a cheat, cultivation was about accumulation, so Su Xuan never missed a chance for morning exercise.

"Hehe! My lord, it’s rare for you to wake up late today!"

After Su Xuan finished his exercise and began to drink water and rest, Old Dian Wei couldn't help but tease him in a cheeky way.

"Get lost!"

Su Xuan glared at this guy indignantly and laughed: "I think you are missing a wife! Wait, after the rebellion is suppressed, I will have my mother find a suitable wife for you, so you can also start a family and have a career, and have a few children soon;"

"Cultivate them well in the future, so they can assist my future children, how about that?"

The next generation needs to be cultivated early!

Old Dian Wei’s genes should be good; perhaps his descendants could produce another mighty general like him?

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, Old Dian Wei’s eyes widened, and he hurriedly said: "Then it’s a deal! My lord, you are not allowed to go back on your word!"

"Get lost! When have I ever not kept my word?"

Su Xuan glared at this simpleton indignantly.

"Haha!"

Old Dian Wei laughed happily and nodded: "That’s true! By the way, my lord, remember when the old lady picks someone, help me pick one with wide hips who is good at giving birth, and has a good physique; I don't care about the rest."

Women, after all!

As long as they aren't too ugly, it’s fine.

For the rest, being a bit stronger is more suitable for him.

He actually didn't like the look of Lady Zou, who looked weak and delicate.

"Haha! Done! It will be as you say! I guarantee you will be satisfied!"

Su Xuan laughed immediately.

This Old Dian Wei’s aesthetic is indeed different from ordinary people!

"What guarantee you will be satisfied? Old Old Dian, what did you get the lord to agree to again?"

At this time, Huang Zhong walked over with Wen Pin, asking loudly with a smile from afar.

"Hehe! Nothing!"

Old Dian Wei touched the back of his head with some embarrassment and replied.

Su Xuan exposed him directly: "It is indeed nothing! Just agreeing to introduce him to a stronger woman!"

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Zhong was surprised: "So it’s that kind of thing? Old Old Dian, you really should start a family!"

Twenty-one and still no wife; it’s not right.

Wen Pin looked at Old Dian Wei with some confusion and asked: "Shouldn't you look for a wife who is beautiful and slim? How come you want one who is stronger?"

"Are you looking for a wife, or a brother?"

"Pfft... Hahaha!"

Su Xuan and Huang Zhong couldn't help but burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Old Dian Wei glared at Wen Pin with disdain and said: "Wen Wen Zhongye, your taste is problematic! If I don't find a stronger one, how can she give birth to children for me? How can she give birth to children who are strong enough?"

"Back then, my mother was strong enough, which is why I am as strong as I am today."

"I naturally should look for a stronger one."

Wen Pin: "....."
