Plug-in Players In Marvel

Shi Xiaolei has seen similar scenes many times, and Shi Xiaolei is already used to them.

"Thor? Why are you here?" He raised his hand and said hello to Thor. His eyes bypassed him and fell on the other people. Shi Xiaolei expressed his welcome by the way: "Long time no see, guys. How have you been lately? Judging from your looks, you should look pretty good."

"Hahahaha~." The straightforward dwarf was the first to respond. Vostagg laughed happily and walked up to give Shi Xiaolei a big hug: "It's great, I can't believe it. Couldn't be better."

The reaction was a bit stronger than expected. Seeing Volstagg's beaming smile, Shi Xiaolei's eyes flashed with confusion.

There was no need to ask. Fandal, who had followed, had already given an explanation: "In about a month, his child will be born."

He never expected that it would be such a big happy event. Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but widen his eyes with a very surprised expression.

Look at Volstagg again.

"That's right, the days have been calculated. In five weeks at most, my little daughter will be born." Talking about the excitement, Vostagg unconsciously rubbed his hands: "The first three are all sons. I have always been looking forward to having a daughter, and this time I finally got it. Hehe, do you know how happy I am? Let me tell you this, it’s better than the first time I was punished by His Majesty Odin for meritorious service on the battlefield. It would be much happier to receive a personal commendation.”

After having known each other for so long and having frequent interactions with each other, Shi Xiaolei still knew some of Vostagg's personal information.

For example, he is already married and has three boys at home.

However, Shi Xiaolei had never heard him mention the fact that his wife was pregnant again and was about to give birth to her fourth child.

With a bit of confusion and a sense of dizziness that had not completely subsided, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but ask Volstagg: "Why haven't I heard you say it before? Although I don't know who among your dwarves is. How long does it take for a woman to get pregnant to give birth to a baby, but the time is certainly not much different from that of us humans, at least it is several months. Man, it has been so long and we have met more than once. Why have you never talked to me? Have you ever mentioned it?”

In the human world, not saying anything after such a long time can be considered a very rude behavior. Because in a sense, only when you treat the other party as an outsider will you subconsciously forget to tell the other party the good news.

Of course, Shi Xiaolei asked this now not because he wanted to question Vostagg, or because he felt that he did not regard him as a friend, so he felt a little depressed.

I just simply can't figure it out, that's all.

"That..." After scratching his head, Volstagg smiled sheepishly: "I was too careless and forgot to tell you."

Thor came up and answered: "We all thought he had told you, so..."

Looking at Thor, then at Fandral, Hogan and Sif behind him who were also speechless, and finally turning his eyes back to Volstagg's face, Shi Xiaolei shook his head in confusion: "Really... , can’t you be more careful? You can handle such a big thing... I’m convinced by you.”

"To be honest, we were quite surprised." Shrugging, Thor said with a smile: "Yesterday when a few of us got together to drink, we casually chatted about this matter. After talking to each other, we realized that it hadn't happened yet. Tell you. No, the purpose of coming here today is to tell you this in person. Oh, and Tony."

"Well..." Volstagg smiled sheepishly and continued: "In addition to informing you, I also want to ask you for a favor."

"Um?"

"Do you still remember those little pets you brought with you when you first went to Asgard?" Volstagg showed a fatherly smile while gesturing clumsily: "I didn't think so before, but now I think so. Get up, I think it would be a good choice to prepare a little pet like that for her. Locke, please, I'm willing to pay double, help me get one."

There were already three boys before, but Volstagg had never thought of buying elves as pets for those three children.

Why did he suddenly change his previous attitude and come up with such an idea when he had his fourth child?

Xif was the most attentive among the others, and was the first to see the confusion in Shi Xiaolei's eyes: "In the dwarf clan, there is a habit of doting on girls more."

"Eh?"

"If you have ten children, at most one or two of them will be girls." Fandral took two steps forward and put his hand on Vostagg's shoulder: "A guy like this guy who can find a mate among his own race, Probably only one in ten. Most male dwarves can only find wives outside..."

Through the introductions of several people, Shi Xiaolei had a more detailed understanding of the dwarf clan.

To put it simply, due to physical limitations, among the pure-blooded descendants of the dwarf clan, the number of women is naturally very small, accounting for only one or two tenths. The children born from intermarriage between male dwarves and other races often have some deficiencies in talent, such as not having the natural strength of dwarves, or having no potential in forging.

Therefore, in order for their children to inherit the characteristics and talents of the dwarf clan, male dwarves hope to find a partner among the same clan. Combined with the fact that there are not many female pure-blood dwarves, there is a tradition that dwarves value female babies more.

"I see."

"It's not just because of this, I also like daughters very much and have wanted one for a long time." Touching the big beard on his chin, Vostagg laughed again: "Now that I have waited so long, As a father, of course I want to prepare the best welcome gift for her. Man, you are also a parent, and you have so many female dolls at home, you must understand my thoughts, right?"

"Indeed, I prefer obedient and cute girls to naughty boys." Shi Xiaolei glanced at the little girls beside him and agreed without hesitation.

"Great. Since you understand, you will definitely not refuse my request. Man, am I right?"

Being stared at by Volstagg expectantly, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "Well...it's not that I don't want to satisfy you. Man, I really can't guarantee you this matter. ”

"Um?"

"If you had told me the news earlier and made an appointment with me in advance, I could have made a promise and guaranteed to get you one. But now..." Shi Xiaolei spread his hands and shrugged, Shi Xiaolei looked slightly embarrassed. He smiled and said: "I can only say that I will try my best, but I really can't say that I will definitely be able to do it."
