“It’s true. You’re not a parrot, so why are you always repeating my words?” Qin Xue taps her little sister’s forehead mockingly, teasing her for parroting her.
“Sis!” Qin Jiale looks at her sister in embarrassment.
“I’m here.” Qin Xue chuckles, looking at her sister’s shy expression. Such a cute little girl.
Qin Yu sat, holding Jingtao, watching his two sisters laugh and tease each other. His heart felt warm. These two were the women he loved most. Seeing their happy smiles, Qin Yu’s heart was full of emotion.
“Yiyi.” Jingtao looks at the playing Qin sisters, waving his arms and feet around, excited, wanting to go to Qin Xue.
“Little Jingtao, you’re too young, you can’t do it yet. Wait until you can walk then go play with them, okay? Here, uncle will get you some snacks to eat.” Qin Yu coaxes Jingtao, noting that he’s finished his cake, so he takes out another piece from the bag next to him.
“Uncle bad.” Jingtao pouts, looking tearfully at Qin Yu, uttering three words that leave him both laughing and crying.
“Little Jingtao, that’s not right, okay? How is uncle bad? Uncle did not let you go over there because you are too young.
Tell uncle, how can you play with them when you can’t even walk yet, huh?” Qin Yu communicates patiently with Jingtao.
“Yiyi.” Jingtao points to where Qin Xue is, looking wronged at Qin Yu.
“But you’re too small.” Qin Yu is at a loss as to why this little tyke is so insistent on going over there.
“What’s going on here?” Qin Xue notices the situation, and walks over to ask.
“Sis, this little rascal insists on going over and playing with you guys. But he’s so small, how could he play?” Qin Yu gestures at Jingtao in his arms, looking helplessly at his sister.
“Xiao Yu, he doesn’t want to play with me, he probably needs to pee or poop.” Qin Xue looks at Jingtao’s almost-tearful expression and tells her brother.
“Ah, Sis, don’t scare me.” Qin Yu flusteredly lifts Jingtao up to hand him to his sister, then remembers she’s pregnant and ends up holding Jingtao against his chest again.
“What are you panicking about? Just take off his pants, isn’t that enough?” Qin Xue looks at her panic-stricken brother and laughs. So, her brother has things he’s afraid of too.
It’s pretty fun to see Qin Yu’s reactions change, Qin Xue thinks.
“Sis, I don’t know how to do it. Hurry up, or it’s going to be all over his pants.” Qin Yu is on the verge of tears now.
“Embrace him while making him stand on your legs, remove his pants with one hand, and hold up one leg with the other hand. Yes, like that. Then while you are holding him, let him pee or poop.” Qin Xue directs Qin Yu as he follows her instructions.
Actually, Qin Yu has seen villagers doing this before and thought it was simple. But now that it’s his turn, he realizes that it’s not as easy as it looks.
Kids aren’t stationary for you to handle. They wiggle and squirm. If you’re not careful, the child could fall.
So, something as simple as peeing becomes a great ordeal for Qin Yu.
“See, luckily, I came over. He was about to pee on you.” Qin Xue points at Jingtao who has finished peeing and says to her brother.
“No wonder this little guy said I was being mean. So he was upset because I was preventing him from peeing.” Qin Yu wipes off his imaginary sweat and says.
“What did you expect? This kid is smart. He’s not even a year old and he’s already starting to speak. Do you know how many children are as intelligent as him?” It’s not without reason that Qin Xue adores Jingtao.
Because this kid is well-behaved, doesn’t cry or fuss and is extremely intelligent and adorable. Very few people can resist his charm.
Now, Qin Xue hopes that the child in her womb can also be as intelligent and cute as Jingtao.
