Chapter 445 Forced Marriage

"Don't think that my Zhou family wants to take advantage of you. As much dowry as your Xiao family prepares, my Zhou family prepares as much dowry. Let me put it here. The dowry prepared by my Zhou family is definitely more than the dowry prepared by your Xiao family." Quite a lot." Zhou Ting curled his lips, "My Zhou family doesn't like the three melons and dates of your Xiao family!"

Xiao Yan smiled wryly: "Yes, yes, senior is right."

After a pause, Xiao Yan said with a tangled expression: "But... the younger generation is not well-known now, and he is not ready to get married yet!"

Hearing this, Zhou Ting's face turned cold immediately: "What do you mean, kid? Do you want to go back on your word? You better explain clearly, kid, otherwise, even if you are from the Sky Academy, I will definitely kill you! My Zhou Not everyone can bully your daughter!"

"Senior, calm down, kid doesn't mean that." Xiao Yan broke out in cold sweat immediately, and hurriedly explained: "I just think that kid is still young, Xiner is too young, far from the age of marriage, the most important thing is , the boy has not achieved anything, and getting married now is too unfair to Xiner. The boy believes that giving Xiner a beautiful wedding after the boy becomes famous is far better than getting married in a hurry now. If the seniors are not at ease, the boy can Give the dowry first, get engaged to Xin'er, and when the time is right, the boy will naturally marry Xin'er."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yan said solemnly again: "Senior, you can rest assured, this junior will never marry Xin Er in this life, and this junior is absolutely sincere to Xin Er."

This is Xiao Yan's true inner thoughts, he will never lie to Zhou Ting on such an important matter.

Looking at Xiao Yan's sincere face, Zhou Ting's expression eased slightly, and he said in a low voice: "I believe that your words come from the heart, but you are not too young. I think back then, when I was at your age When you grow up, you will have children, so you don’t have to worry about this. As for the wedding, the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty married a princess, even if I married a beggar, the wedding is definitely the most beautiful in the Zhou Dynasty!”

Zhou Xiner The only princess of the Zhou Dynasty is the jewel in the palm of the entire royal family. How could her wedding not be spectacular?

"The old man still said the same thing, you must get married as soon as possible, and you don't need to worry about other things. Don't think that the old man is really interested in the dowry. To put it in a bad way, even if you give your entire Xiao family to the royal family, The royal family is still not willing to want it!" Zhou Ting is very stubborn, and he will not change his mind easily when he decides.

The more he knew about Xiao Yan, the more he was shocked by this young man's talent. If such a genius was not tied to the royal family sooner, Zhou Ting would really feel worried.

He didn't doubt Xiao Yan's sincerity towards Zhou Xiner, but there were contingencies in everything, if something happened in the middle, wouldn't the royal family lose a super genius?

The best way is to get Xiao Yan and Zhou Xiner married as soon as possible to prevent any accidents from happening. In this way, the royal family can sit back and relax.

Zhou Ting thought too much and went too far. He had to consider not only Zhou Xiner's happiness, but also the interests of the royal family. Although it would not be possible to sacrifice Zhou Xiner's happiness for the benefit of the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty, but in the case of both Now, he would naturally think more about it, lest the bamboo basket fetch water in vain, not only gain no benefits, but also cause Zhou Xiner to live an unhappy life.

Hearing Zhou Ting's words, Xiao Yan couldn't help being silent. He doesn't like his marriage to be decided by others, even if this person is his father, he may not be obedient, let alone Zhou Ting.

But Zhou Ting was Zhou Xiner's ancestor after all, and the founding emperor of the Zhou Dynasty. If he refused directly, it would undoubtedly anger Zhou Ting and cause things to develop in an unknown direction.

Xiao Yan didn't agree, nor did he refuse, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Just when Xiao Yan was in a dilemma, Zhou Xiner, Xiao Ding, and Xiao Zhantian rushed over from afar.

"Brother Xiao Yan!" Zhou Xiner saw Xiao Yan's swollen like a pig's head from a distance, she couldn't help but exclaimed, rushed to Xiao Yan, and said distressedly: "Why is the old ancestor so cruel that he beat you like this?" Looks good. Brother Xiao Yan, does it hurt? Quick, take the healing pill."

Zhou Xiner completely ignored Zhou Ting who was on the side, and quickly took out a piece of silk cloth from her bosom, opened a jade bottle wrapped in it, and poured out a pill that exuded a faint fragrance.

Watching Xiao Yan swallow the healing pill, Zhou Xiner turned her head, looked at Zhou Ting, pouted and said, "Old Ancestor, how could you hit Brother Xiao Yan so hard?"

Xiao Ding and Xiao Zhantian felt distressed seeing Xiao Yan's miserable appearance, but this injury was obviously caused by Zhou Ting, even if they were dissatisfied in their hearts, they did not dare to show it at all.

"Girl, don't be nervous, your elder brother Xiao Yan just suffered a little skin trauma, it's fine." Zhou Ting said helplessly: "When the old man was so young, injuries were commonplace, and there was no way to get healing pills. Nothing happened? What's more, my generation of monks is fighting for their lives with the heavens. A mere skin injury is nothing. Who can guarantee that they will not be injured for the rest of their lives?"

It can be seen that he really loves Zhou Xiner. For someone else, he would have slapped her into the sky long ago. How could he have the patience to explain to her?

Xiao Ding and Xiao Zhantian breathed a sigh of relief immediately, if it was just some skin trauma, it was barely acceptable.

"Then you can't use such a heavy hand!" Zhou Xiner still pouted, looking unhappy.

Zhou Ting couldn't help but smiled wryly, and coaxed in a low voice: "All right, girl, the old ancestor listens to you, you must be gentle next time, okay?"

Xiao Yan's body froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "Is there a next time?"

But Zhou Xin'er didn't hear the sinister intention hidden in Zhou Ting's words, and thought that Zhou Ting had really admitted his mistake, so she smiled happily: "It's not too bad."

"Before..." Xiao Yan was about to say something, but Zhou Ting stared at him unkindly, and immediately shivered, and swallowed the words abruptly.

"Brother Xiao Yan, what did you just say?" Zhou Xiner looked at Xiao Yan suspiciously.

Under Zhou Ting's threatening gaze, Xiao Yan only felt his scalp go numb, swallowed hard, and immediately shook his head: "No, I didn't say anything."

Zhou Ting immediately smiled with satisfaction, and said in his heart: "Forget that you are wise!"

"Okay, Xiao Yan boy, the old man is too lazy to talk nonsense with you, so I just ask you, how did you think about the old man's proposal just now?" Zhou Ting was always thinking about the marriage of Xiao Yan and Zhou Xin'er. The topic was diverted just now, but he quickly brought the topic back, "I put the ugly words first, you only have this one chance, if you miss it, no one will give you another chance!"

These words were considered a threat, using Zhou Xiner to threaten Xiao Yan.

However, Xiao Yan had no choice.

"Old Ancestor, Brother Xiao Yan, what are you talking about?" Zhou Xiner could not help but ask, sensing that the atmosphere was not right.

Zhou Ting frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Girl, shut up and let Xiao Yan talk!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xiner opened her mouth, but she still didn't dare to speak anymore. Normally, she could make a fuss, even if she pulled Zhou Ting's beard, it would be fine, but when Zhou Ting became serious, she still felt a little nervous. Damn, once the founding emperor of the Zhou Dynasty became serious, no one in the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty could resist his majesty.

Xiao Yan moved his eyes to Zhou Xiner, recalling every bit of being with Zhou Xiner in his mind, a smile gradually appeared on his face, that smile was very gentle and full of love.

Although he knew that Zhou Ting was threatening him, even if he really refused, Zhou Ting would not stop him from being with Xin'er, but Xiao Yan still didn't dare to bet, even if there was only a 1% chance of losing the bet, he would dare not try.

In this world, there are three people that he absolutely cannot let go of, and occupy an important place in his heart. One is his father Xiao Ding, one is his teacher Ou Shenfeng, and the other is Zhou Xiner!

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yan withdrew his gaze, raised his head, looked directly at Zhou Ting, and said calmly: "Senior, I promise you. Within a month, this junior will go to the imperial capital to be hired. Within a year, this junior will marry Xin'er." " After finishing speaking, Xiao Yan turned his head to look at Zhou Xin'er with a sluggish face, and asked softly, "Xin'er, will you marry me?"

Zhou Xiner was bewildered by this sudden scene, she couldn't believe it.

She suddenly covered her mouth, her eyes filled with mist, and murmured: "Brother Xiao Yan..."

Happiness came so suddenly that she was not prepared for it at all.

Zhou Xiner never thought that this day would come so soon and so suddenly, and she was completely defenseless against Xiao Yan's confession, her mind instantly lost control, and her brain went down for a while.

Seeing that Zhou Xin'er was silent, Xiao Yan suddenly became nervous: "Xin'er."

Although he was very sure that Zhou Xiner loved him, when he really confessed his love boldly, he still couldn't help but worry about gains and losses.

I saw Zhou Xin'er gradually waking up, her beautiful lips curled up slightly, her eyes narrowed into crescent moons with a smile, and said crisply: "Yes! Brother Xiao Yan, Xiner is willing!"

"Thank you, thank you, Xiner." Xiao Yan held Zhou Xiner's palm, with a bright smile on his face, as if he had harvested the whole world.

Xiao Ding and Xiao Zhantian couldn't help but smile with relief, their eyes were full of sighs.

"In a blink of an eye, Yan'er has reached the age of marrying a wife, time is not forgiving!" Xiao Ding couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Yajing, have you seen that our child will also enter the palace of marriage, and, This child has the same vision as mine, and will definitely be happier than us in the future!"

For Zhou Xiner, Xiao Ding was so satisfied that he could not close his mouth from ear to ear. He had noticed the former's kindness to Xiao Yan all these years.

Whether it's personality, talent, or family background, Zhou Xiner is not bad at all, especially her family background. Zhou Xiner is a princess of the Zhou Dynasty, a treasure of the royal family. Xiao Yan is able to marry Zhou Xiner. In Xiao Ding's opinion, it is definitely Xiao Yan's honor. The Xiao family can be regarded as a climber.
