[Zerg] After being reborn as a male Zergling, he refused to be a kept man.

Before the children discuss marriage, both sets of parents should meet. However, since Fei is alone and has no relatives, those details were omitted, and we'll fast-forward to the main point.

The night before his formal visit, Fei didn't sleep a wink. Before dawn, he woke up his master, asking him to cheer him on.

"My dear husband, I'm feeling flustered, my hands are shaking, and I'm so nervous and anxious. Please encourage me."

Zhuang Nian was so sleepy that he lay flat with his eyes closed.

-

The Zhuang family mansion is located in the quiet, wooded eastern suburbs of the capital, and it is said that the entire mountain belongs to them.

The car wound its way up the mountain, passing the ancestral homes of the eighteen branches along the way. The house at the very top, with the best feng shui location, was the home where Zhuang Nian grew up.

Fei straightened his clothes, which had been adjusted countless times, and put on leather shoes, trousers, and a white shirt. He followed Zhuang Nian, who was wearing the same outfit as him, with his eyes lowered to show his respect.

Although Mr. Zhuang is over fifty years old, his eyes are still clear and sharp.

He noticed that Fei's posture and movements were as if they had been measured with a ruler. Although his face was cold and aloof and he seemed unapproachable, his eyes were firm and resolute. He thought to himself that Fei was indeed a soldier, and he was easy to look at.

Fei asked, "A-Nian said you're a soldier?"

Fei discovered that male insects in the human world seemed particularly approachable, without any airs. He immediately felt a strong liking for this kind-looking old man and nodded obediently, saying:

"I attended the Imperial Military Academy when I was three years old, joined the military at eighteen, and am now a marshal."

Zhuang Nian gently touched Jun Ci with his hand, signaling him not to go into so much detail.

Although he had already prepared a completely new identity and information for Fei, and the Zhuang family's power was not great enough to investigate things on the other side of the world, saying more would only lead to more mistakes, and saying less was always better.

...After all, his grandfather and father were not fools, and they inevitably noticed the flaws in his words.

Grandpa Zhuang had indeed not heard Zhuang Nian mention that Fei was a marshal, and pondered for a moment:

"A soldier's identity is already sensitive and special, and you are a marshal. Doesn't your country have any objections to this marriage?"

"I'm old and don't know much about the current international situation. I'm just curious, can the Marshal travel abroad so freely? Step onto other countries' territory? Didn't customs stop you?"

Fiji:"!!!"

He immediately felt utterly defeated; his grandfather had caught him red-handed. Just as he was wondering what to do, Zhuang Nian began his eloquent performance…

Grandpa Zhuang listened quietly, but smiled without saying a word.

Mr. Zhuang clicked his tongue as if to ask a question, but Mrs. Zhuang tugged at his sleeve and quietly stopped him.

The father said irritably, "Can't you tell your son is lying?"

Mrs. Zhuang sighed, "I can see that, but so what? They won't separate anyway, and we can't break them up. No matter how many questions you ask, Fei Bao is going to come into this family and become your daughter-in-law. Why ruin the harmony?"

Father Zhuang: "Ji Tianxue! I am the head of the family! If I don't let him in, he can't come in. They say that a doting mother spoils her son, and this brat dares to lie through his teeth; it's all because you spoiled him."

Zhuang's mother: "Zhuang Tianyang! Let me remind you! You still have a grandson in Fei Bao's hands. Look how smart and well-behaved Zizheng and You Nan are, don't you want to see Yu Chen?"

Zhuangzi's father: "I don't want to."

Mrs. Zhuang: "Haven't you always preferred daughters? If Fei Bao gets pregnant again, and it's a girl, or even twins, then there will be at least two. Just think, with his and our son's such good genes, wouldn't the granddaughters they have be exceptionally beautiful, smart, and adorable? Wouldn't you be happy to have two granddaughters to hold?"

Father Zhuang: "..."

Mother Zhuang: "Tianyang, speak up, are you happy or not?"

Zhuang's father: "It's not even close to happening yet, what am I so excited about?"

Zhuang's mother: "You're always getting in their way. How can things possibly work out? What makes you happy?"

Zhuang's father said, "Your son is hiding something, which proves there's something fishy going on. Shouldn't I ask him a few questions? What if that Fei is a spy from another country?"

Zhuang's mother: "What spy? Our son isn't stupid."

Zhuangzi's father: "Ha."

Mrs. Zhuang: "Even if you don't believe your son, what about the security department? They're not pushovers. If Fei Bao really had something going on, he would have been arrested long ago, okay? Are you still standing here? We've all been arrested, okay?"

Father Zhuang: "..."

Just as Zhuangzi's mother said.

Fei's identity couldn't be problematic, otherwise the security department would have taken action long ago. As for the rest...

Zhuang Nian was clearly determined to be with Fei, and there were three little ones too. Since they were destined to be together, they were bound to become a family. Why hurt each other's feelings when they already knew the outcome?

After confirming that the Fei family had a clean background and were not dangerous individuals, Grandpa Zhuang and his father did not make things difficult for them anymore, and they agreed to their marriage.

Family dinner.

Fei Suizhuang followed behind the elders, walking towards the banquet hall while whispering to his master, "Do you always walk this far to eat?"

Zhuang Nian: "We usually eat at home, and only go to banquet halls when entertaining distinguished guests during festivals."

Fei liked this feeling of being valued, but being a little narcissistic, she hooked her finger around her lord's and asked, "My lord, is it New Year's Day today?"

Zhuang Nian shook his head: "No."

Fei: "So, what holiday is it today?"

Zhuang Nian shook his head again: "No, not exactly."

"Then," Fei's eyes lit up, "am I a distinguished guest in our home?"

Zhuang Nian shook his head again and said, "You are the Zhuang family's daughter-in-law, someone far more important than a New Year's Day guest."

Ah~~~

At that moment, Fei felt as if she had fallen into royal jelly, so sweet it was almost bubbling over. She said happily, "Your Majesty, you are wrong. I am an insect, not a human."

Zhuang Nian nodded, agreeing with him: "Yeah, you're not human."

Fei smiled happily and entered the banquet hall.

Ever since the day they were brought back to the Zhuang family home, the two cubs had stayed by Grandpa Zhuang's side. Upon seeing their parents, they rushed over, calling out, "Daddy! Father!"

Seeing their energetic and happy faces, Fei knew the two little ones were having a good time here, and asked them, "Have you been behaving well?"

The two children nodded happily and said, "Great-Grandpa and Grandpa and Grandma love us very much, and we have lots of books to read."

Books are a luxury item that can't be bought in the Zerg world; they are incredibly precious and treasures!

"Really?" Fei was very excited when the two kids said they had books to read, and asked them, "What books are they?"

Zizheng gestured with his hands: "There are so many, all kinds of books."

You Nan nodded: "A whole room full."

As they spoke, the servants brought the food to the table, and the two little ones reminded their father, "Great-Grandpa said, 'Don't talk while eating or sleeping,' so Father, please don't talk while we eat!"

Fiji:"???"

What language? What kind of speech? Why can't we talk while eating?

Fei kept his mouth shut and listened to Grandpa Zhuang say, "Eat up," before imitating his master's actions and placing the napkin on his lap.

He wasn't comfortable using chopsticks and was too embarrassed to pick up any food. When he picked up a spoon to drink the soup from the bowl, he used his mental power to control the spoon so that it wouldn't make a clattering sound, lest he be impolite.

The meal was lavish, with exquisite decorations and elegant details throughout, but for some reason, Ke Fei had no appetite at all.

—The two little ones too.

The roast suckling pig on the table smelled delicious and looked very appetizing, but it was placed on an exquisite plate in the very center of the long table, making it impossible for anyone to reach it.

The two little ones thought it might just be for display, otherwise why would it be placed where no one could reach it? And why would it be a whole animal?

The seafood feast and several other delicious dishes were placed in a particularly awkward position, purely for aesthetic purposes, without any consideration for whether they were easy to pick up.

The two little ones could only watch and drool, their mouths watering. They watched as their father rolled up his sleeves and slowly and methodically peeled shrimp and various seafood shellfish with a particularly elegant posture.

Fei also wanted to eat, but back in the Zerg, he hadn't properly learned how to use chopsticks in order to get his lord to feed him. Now that he wanted to use them, he found that his fingers wouldn't obey him at all.

He stared longingly as his master's plates piled up into a small mountain, and like the two little ones who were secretly peeking over, he silently swallowed his saliva.

Zhuang Nian slightly curved his lips, dipped a seashell in caviar, and pushed it along with the plate piled high with food to Fei's side.

The two little ones: "..." Hehehe~

Fiji:"!!!"

He hadn't expected his master to react this way. He felt both sweet and touched. He cautiously looked up to see the elders' reactions and found that they were all focused on eating and hadn't noticed him.

Fei whispered his thanks to his master and was about to eat when he noticed the two cubs staring longingly at the food on his plate. He wanted to pass it over, but the table was too wide...

Zhuang Nian wiped his hands with a sterilized hot towel and said to the two children, "It's our own home. Help yourselves to whatever you want to eat. Don't be afraid."

From that day on, no fancy dishes ever appeared on the table again.

Before being served, all the main dishes are prepared by the chef into equal portions, which are then placed in exquisite bone dishes within easy reach.

It's guaranteed to be delicious, visually appealing, and easy to pick up; kids can swallow it in one bite.

As for those ridiculous rules like not talking at the dinner table and not making any clinking noises with the cutlery...

You can be more casual as long as it's not a formal occasion.

At that time, the moon was bright and the stars were few. The family sat together drinking tea and chatting, asking Fei what requirements or thoughts he had about marriage.

It's clear that the elders are very kind and loving towards the younger generation. Fei is content, happy, and joyful, saying, "As long as I can be with the male master, I don't want anything else."

At first, Mrs. Zhuang thought he was just being shy, but when she saw that he really didn't want anything, she did as they had agreed beforehand and produced a thick deed of gift...

"Look, is there anything you're missing? Mom will get it for you."

Fei looked at the string of zeros in the evaluation column, hurriedly turned around, took out his ledger, and frantically calculated with the abacus. He discovered that his dowry was far from enough, and all his assets were still with the Zerg...

If Mom knew I was penniless and so poor, would she not want me to be with her? *sobs*

Seeing the woman's distressed expression, the elders assumed she thought it wasn't enough. They huddled together and discussed it further, then pulled out another blank check and said, "Feibao, fill in as much as you want."

Fei finally understood what the term "chaebol" meant, and whispered while fiddling with his fingers, "I...I don't want to."

Mrs. Zhuang quickly took out another blank check: "Here's another one for you."

Fei's eyes reddened. She pushed the deed of gift and the two checks on the table back, shaking her head and saying, "No."

Zhuang’s mother: "..."

She handed Fei the entire stack of checks in her hand and asked, "Is this enough?"

Fei shook her head again, firmly stating, "No."

Elders: "..." Child, your appetite is a bit too big!

Zhuang Nian didn't understand what the lecherous insect was up to, and asked him, "What exactly do you want?"

Fei pursed her lips: "I only want you."

Zhuang Nian: "Does this conflict with accepting these things?"

Fei said sadly, "I have no dowry to give as a return gift..."

Zhuang Nian: "..."

Mother Zhuang chuckled: "Silly child, no need to return the gift."

Grandpa Zhuang coughed lightly and replied, "It's good that you brought the third son back."

Father Zhuang nodded in agreement, his voice barely audible: "It would be best if you could give me another granddaughter, or even better, twins."
