Xu Li returned to the bedroom after grabbing a bite to eat. The two sisters were sitting cross-legged on the bed, munching on snacks. When they saw him come in, they shrank back a little, leaving a space for him. Anna patted the empty spot beside her.
"Did you miss me?"
"Mm-hmm."
Once Xu Li climbed onto the bed, Anna cautiously leaned closer, reaching out to touch his face. Suddenly, her little lips pouted as she burst into tears. Seeing Anna cry, Eva naturally didn’t want to be left out; emotions were contagious.
He quietly held both sisters until they had cried enough. After wiping their tears and snot, he smiled and asked, "Which of you wants to be a mommy?"
"I want to be a mommy!"
As soon as Eva heard this, her gloomy mood brightened instantly. She happily hugged Xu Li and shook him. Anna grinned widely beside them, saying, "I want to be a mommy too!"
"So that means both of you are pregnant?"
Xu Li's mind was blown. Was he really that capable?
"Mm-hmm."
"Yes!"
He joyfully planted kisses on the little faces of both sisters. It seemed like Eva had suddenly grown up; she even got off the bed to fetch water for him to wash his face and feet. "Mommy said you need to take care of your health and go to bed early."
"Thank you, Eva."
In response to Xu Li's gratitude, Eva simply smiled back at him.
In the cold northern region, winter could be incredibly boring. However, Xu Li found joy in it. Andrei had transformed one of the rooms by installing rings and pull-up bars inside. Old Russian looked at the somewhat empty room and felt something was missing. He snapped his fingers and had a bright idea; he took Popov and Yurian on a trip to Bratsk to buy a lot of scrap metal.
The older guys worked in the warehouse welding dumbbells and barbells. Whenever Xu Li felt bored, he would help out a bit. However, Andrei insisted that he should wait until his injuries were fully healed before starting any training. Xu Li shrugged and didn’t push it.
January 14th marked the New Year for the Da Mao Family and was also the most complete gathering of family members in recent years since Lao Si and his family had returned from Moscow with their wives and children. Natasha held her grandchildren in her arms, her mouth hardly closing.
As an internist, Lao Si Zhukov carefully examined this brave brother-in-law of his. He even tested the reaction of a cannon made in Huaxia before allowing Xu Li to get dressed. He nodded at Andrei: "You can start training from the basics now." Misha’s recovery was surprisingly good; it was incredible that such injuries healed in just three months.
Andrei couldn't help but grin widely at that moment as he reached out to touch the scarred lines on Xu Li's face that resembled worms: "Misha, this is your symbol of becoming a man; you should be proud of it."
"I will, Dad."
The whole family joyfully celebrated the New Year together. As an uncle to thirteen nephews and nieces, he couldn’t slack off either; he prepared red envelopes for each younger generation member. His nephew Valentin, who was eight years old, accepted his red envelope with a conflicted nod: "Thank you, Uncle."
There's no way around it; being older comes with its own significance.
