Six months later, Guan Yuxi gave birth to twin daughters safely.
Leng Liangyu and Fang Minzhen were absolutely smitten, exclaiming, "It looks exactly like Dou Dou when she was just born!"
Leng Lie, the father, didn't even get a glimpse of it.
However, glancing sideways at the two wrinkled little creatures, their mouths agape as they wailed loudly.
He realized that his own wife was still the prettiest and cutest.
Why don't you go and hug the baby?
Don't you like your daughter?
Because she has always been in good health, she also took good care of herself during her pregnancy.
Guan Yuxi recovered quickly. Although it was her first pregnancy and she had twins, it didn't seem to have any impact on her.
Leng Lie certainly wouldn't dare say he disliked his daughter for being ugly.
She just gestured with her lip towards Leng Liangyu and his wife, "You only had two children, so it's not my turn to hold them."
Oh, is it because you think her life isn't long enough?
Guan Yuxi glared at him. Twins were already a relief, why did he want more?
Does she think she's a pig?!
"Honey, are you tired? Are you hungry?"
Leng Liangyu and his wife were busy taking care of the two little babies.
Leng Lie, who hadn't been in the kitchen for a long time, had no choice but to take on the heavy responsibility of being the cook.
Not only did she have to prepare Guan Yuxi's postpartum meals, but she was also constantly being told what to do.
One minute they're asking me to wash diapers, the next they're asking me to boil water for the baby to mix formula, or give the baby a bath.
It wasn't until three days later.
Fang Minzhen smiled and took over the household chores, saying, "Alright, go and keep Xiaoxi company."
Leng Lie: "......"
Although Aunt Fang didn't say anything, he knew he was being disliked.
At the same time, he also passed the test given to him by Leng Liangyu and his wife.
"Aunt Fang, don't worry, I won't dislike my daughter. I love any child Xiaoxi gave birth to."
This was the first time he had called Fang Minzhen.
Although she didn't call him "Mom," Fang Minzhen was so moved that her eyes welled up with tears.
"Well... your dad is just worried that you'll favor boys over girls and treat Xiaoxi and her mother badly in the future, so he wants to observe your reaction."
"What if I really do favor boys over girls?"
As if possessed, Leng Lie asked another question.
Leng Liangyu snorted coldly, "Then we'll take Xiaoxi and our granddaughter back to Beijing."
You should live alone!
Throughout the past few months, Leng Lie has remained cold and aloof.
If he couldn't warm up the iron stone, he would give up.
Guan Yuxi, their daughter-in-law, is both grateful and always greets them with a smile.
He treated Fang Minzhen like his own daughter, and they developed genuine feelings for each other.
Leng Lie was speechless. He snatched the daughters from their arms, one in each hand, and went into the house without looking back.
Behind him, Leng Liangyu and Fang Min exchanged a smile.
They eventually managed to warm up this iron rock.
The two children's 100th day celebration.
Li Chunhua arrived; it's unclear where she heard the news from.
"How come they're two good-for-nothings? Back then, I was only able to establish myself in the Leng family because I gave birth to you and Xiao Can... That bitch Leng Huan is an ungrateful wretch; she even managed to steal my Xiao Can away."
"Xiao Lie, let me tell you, you should give these two good-for-nothings away, and have another baby. I guarantee it'll be two sons, and then the Leng family line will be continued..."
Leng Lie, holding one daughter in each arm, looked at her coldly and said, "You can leave now. My family didn't invite you!"
He couldn't bring himself to say anything even harsher, after all, she was his own mother.
Li Chunhua stared at him wide-eyed. "What did you say? You're telling me to leave? I'm your mother!"
"I have a mother now, I don't need so many mothers!"
Leng Lie called out into the house, "Aunt Fang!"
Leng Liangyu and Fang Minzhen walked out arm in arm.
Li Chunhua looked at Leng Liangyu as if she had seen a ghost, screamed, covered her face, and ran away quickly.
Fang Minzhen glanced at him sideways and said, "You don't look that scary."
Leng Liangyu awkwardly touched his nose, chuckled, and smoothed things over.
Leng Lie reluctantly handed his two daughters to them.
The two little ones are completely different from how they looked when they were born, all wrinkled and chubby.
Now, she is not only chubby and fair-skinned, but she also smiles occasionally, enjoys eating her little hands, and blows bubbles.
Leng Lie practically wanted to stay by his wife and daughter's side 24/7.
After the hundred-day celebration, Guan Yuxi and Leng Lie handed over the work at the food factory and the clothing factory.
Because they are going to Kyoto.
Previously, it was because Leng Liangyu and Fang Minzhen missed Dou Dou and An An.
Guan Yuxi then asked Fang Yuan to help her and Leng Lie transfer their household registrations to Kyoto, and also registered them for the college entrance examination in Kyoto.
As soon as the group got off the train, Guan Yuxi was picked up by an incredibly impressive Hongqi car.
"It's alright, you take Uncle Yinyu and Aunt Fang back first."
"I'll be back in a bit."
Guan Yuxi smiled reassuringly at Leng Lie.
***
Guan Yuxi was led to a magnificent hall.
A familiar yet unfamiliar figure stood by the window, slowly turning around.
"I heard you haven't studied at all. Do you think you can pass the exam?"
"Do you believe me? I can write the entire test paper from memory."
The old man was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter, "You're not afraid of me anymore!"
Guan Yuxi's eyes were red, and she bowed deeply to him.
"You are our faith, and I have never been afraid of you."
She paused, her tone slightly lighter, "Before, I was just afraid of dying before I could even get started."
The old man's eyes darkened, and after a long while, he finally exhaled a breath of stale air.
“It was my fault, but Xiao Fang and the others took all the blame. I can’t rest easy!”
