After saying that, he looked at Su Xiaolu and said seriously, “Sister, if you have a baby in the future, I won’t let you work so hard. I definitely won’t let the child hurt your vitality. I’ll find many treasures to nourish your body.”

Su Kuo knew that when people grew up, they would get married and have children.

Almost everyone would get married and have children, unless she couldn’t. As long as it was a woman, she had to get married and have children unless her body was defective.

Was Su Xiaolu’s body flawed? Of course not. She was very healthy, so Su Kuo thought that it was normal for Su Xiaolu to get married and have children.

Giving birth must be difficult, but if the energy was replenished, it would not hurt the mother.

Therefore, when Su Xiaolu got married and got pregnant in the future, he would protect her well and never let her lack energy. This way, Su Xiaolu could give birth to a healthy baby. After she gave birth, her body would still be healthy.

“Cough cough cough—

When Su Xiaolu heard Su Kuo’s sincere and serious words, she choked on her saliva.

“Sister, what’s wrong? Are you alright?”

Su Kuo did not understand. He quickly went forward and patted Su Xiaolu’s back.

Su Xiaolu quickly waved her hand. “Little Kuo, thank you.”

Su Kuo smiled, revealing his cute canine teeth. “Sister, you don’t have to thank me. I’ll be very happy to protect you.”

Su Xiaolu patted Su Kuo’s shoulder. He was still in the process of figuring out complicated humans.

Everything he said and did was sincere.

When the two of them returned home, Zhou Wei, Zhou Xuan, and the children came over together.

Time in the Su family was very comfortable for the twins.

They could even go out shopping.

They were extremely happy with their cousins. In the past, when they met, they had never interacted so quietly. They only saw each other a few times a year, and there were many people when they met.

Now that they were together, their relationship improved.

They would pester Su Xiaolu to practice martial arts and play together.

Su Xiaolu was tired of it. She flew to the roof and leaned lazily, unwilling to come down.

The children’s Qinggong was not as good as hers. They could not pester her even if they wanted to.

The days passed slowly.

On December 27, Zhou Heng came to pick Su Xiaoling and the child back to the palace.

Su Xiaolu did not ask further. Zhou Heng cared about Su Xiaoling and must have settled the matter before coming to pick them up.

December 29th.

The imperial court was also on holiday for the new year.

Only then did Su Chong have the time to spar with Su Xiaolu.

The entire family watched.

As a general, Su Chong had been busy in the imperial court all these years and had not fallen behind in practicing martial arts. He looked at Su Xiaolu solemnly and said, “Xiaolu, please.”

Su Xiaolu looked at her brother, who had a beard and looked calm. She sighed and said, “Brother, can you remove your beard if I win? You look really old with a beard.”

Su Chong shook his head. “No, change it.”

He was already a father, so he naturally had to be steady. Moreover, he was almost 40 years old. He couldn’t still look like a young man, right?

If he didn’t have a beard, the boys under him would think that he didn’t have any power.

“Then if I can shave your beard within a hundred moves, consider it my reward, okay?”

Su Xiaolu looked at Su Chong’s beard. Her hands were really itchy.

In her memory, her eldest brother and second brother were still handsome young men. Now, they had become middle-aged uncles. They were really old -fashioned.

Actually, they wouldn’t be so old-fashioned without a beard, but they wanted to keep it. Why were they still wearing old-fashioned blue and dark red robes?

Su Xiaolu wanted to cry when she saw this. Making her brothers young was what she wanted the most.

The corners of Su Chong’s mouth twitched. He couldn’t help but wonder why his sister couldn’t get along with his beard.

“Within a hundred moves?”

Su Chong was a little hesitant.

He was not weak, and they were not allowed to use spiritual power. He was not necessarily inferior to Su Xiaolu.

His hand was too itchy. After not seeing her for ten years, he really wanted to know how good Su Xiaolu’s martial arts were.

Su Xiaolu nodded. “Yes, if I can’t do it within a hundred moves, I’ll give up.” She wasn’t sure, but she wanted to give it a try.

Su Hua held back his laughter and said, “Brother, just agree. If you lose, I’ll do it with you.”

Su Xiaolu’s eyes lit up. She was eager to try.

Su Chong looked at Su Xiaolu’s expression and gritted his teeth. “Alright, to be honest, Xiaolu, I know you’re very powerful, but I haven’t fallen behind after so many years. I might lose to you, but I don’t believe you can do it within a hundred moves. Let’s give it a try today! We siblings will compete!”

Su Xiaolu laughed heartily. “Come.”

“It’s snowing. It’s snowing.”

The youngest, Su Yang, clapped and cheered. His eyes were sparkling as he looked at Su Xiaolu and Su Chong and said, “Father, Aunt, hurry up.” Su Chong and Su Xiaolu both took their swords.

Su Xiaolu cupped her hands at Su Chong according to the rules. Su Chong returned the greeting and the two of them drew their swords and started fighting.

Su Sanlang, Madam Zhao, and the others watched intently.

This scene seemed to go back to more than ten years ago. At that time, Su Xiaolu was still a child. She and Su Chong often practiced swordsmanship together, from spring to winter.

They fought as the snow danced, and they also fought as the snow covered the world.

When the two swords fought, their moves were unique.

They went back and forth.

Su Xiaolu’s sword intent carried her ostentatious aura, forcing Su Chong to gradually turn from offense to defense.

Su Xiaolu’s change surprised him. Su Xiaolu’s comprehension of the way of the sword had already surpassed his.

The more she fought, the braver she became. Her moves became more and more novel, but she could use them freely.

In just a hundred moves, the difference in strength was obvious.

Su Chong’s martial arts skills were also very high. He knew that he was not Su Xiaolu’s match, so he began to defend. After defending for a hundred moves, his beard would be saved.

Su Xiaolu was in high spirits. She gently raised her sword and stabbed, then changed directions and swung it back.

Su Chong felt a chill on his chin. When he looked again, his beard was dancing in the air.

“Good job, girl. Good job!”

When Old Wu returned to the capital, he saw such a big show. He was so excited that he clapped. This was his disciple.

Old Wu raised his chin proudly at Gui You.

Gui You rolled his eyes at Old Wu. “Su Xiaolu is also my disciple. Are you crazy from old age? That girl also obediently performed the Apprentice Ceremony.”

Old Wu was speechless. He was furious. “No, no. I didn’t agree at that time. If you want a good disciple, find one yourself.”

Gui You rolled his eyes. “Hmph hmph hmph hmph— Old Wu snorted angrily.

Su Xiaolu was also very excited to see Old Wu and Gui You. She lost her composure for a few seconds before adjusting.

Su Chong had already put away his sword. He admitted defeat and said, “Master and Uncle-Master are back. I admit defeat. I’ll go back and shave my beard later.”

Su Hua looked elsewhere. Su Chong had already walked to his side. He put his arm around his shoulder and smiled. “Brother Hua, let’s go. We have company..”
