Youyou immediately picked up little Yueyao and ran to the living room. Yun Shishi was meticulously arranging the flowers when Youyou dashed up to her carrying the baby. He was so excited that his mind was a blank!

  “Mommy! Mommy! Little Sister spoke! And her first words were ‘big brother’!”


  When Little Yichen heard this, he walked up to them in surprise. “Really? Really?”


  Yun Shishi did not seem to think much of it and asked curiously, “Yueyao is not able to talk just yet! Youyou, are you mistaken?”


  Of course, she knew that this little fellow had been dying to hear Yueyao calling him ‘big brother’, even in his dreams!

  Youyou hurriedly explained, “Mommy, sister really said ‘big brother’. I heard it clearly! How could I have heard wrongly?”


  “No one taught her to say ‘big brother’! Why would she say those words for no reason?”


  Yun Shishi only knew that Gong Jie and Mu Yazhe had been secretly teaching little Yueyao to say ‘uncle’ and ‘daddy’. These two big clowns were racing against time as each of them desperately vied for the baby to address himself first.

  This was especially so for Mu Yazhe. In order to get Yueyao to open her talk, he had used every imaginable method. He had even used her favorite toy to tempt her, yet she would not speak a single word.

  But what could one do!

  After all, how old was Yueyao?

  She was only just over five months and she still could not speak coherently. She could only use a few syllables to drop hints of her own emotions.

  She would have to be six to seven months old before she could talk, although, they would not rule out the possibility that it could happen earlier than expected.

  Youyou said, “Mommy, it’s true. I’ve been teaching my sister to say ‘big brother’ these few days. Didn’t Mommy say that I started talking earlier than expected? Maybe Little Sister is smarter than me?”


  As he said that, he gently squeezed Yueyao’s hand as if he was afraid that his mother would doubt him. He guided her patiently, “Little Sister, Mommy doesn’t believe you. Quickly tell Mommy what you just said.”


  Little Yueyao, on the other hand, did not seem to have heard Youyou’s words as she continued to focus on her red packet!

  Her tiny hands held on to the red packet, almost tearing it apart. She was completely absorbed in her own little game!

  Youyou tried his best to attract her attention. Shaking her tiny hand, he gently urged her, “Little Sister, didn’t you call out to me so clearly just now? Why aren’t you talking now? Come, let Mommy hear you; she doesn’t believe me! ‘Big brother’, Little Sister, say ‘big brother’, hurry up…”


  When little Yueyao heard this, she thought that he wanted to play with the red packet too. Hence, she immediately raised the item in her hand and very generously offered it to him.

  Youyou was instantly amused!

  However, he insisted, “Mommy, Yueyao really did say ‘big brother’!”


  “Really?”


  Yun Shishi’s eyes were like crescent moons as she smiled and said, “Alright, Mommy has noted! Maybe it’s just a coincidence that your little sister said something like it! We still have a long way to go and there will be opportunities!”


  Little Yichen could not help feeling a little regretful that he did not hear Yueyao saying ‘big brother’. However, like what his mother said, they had a long way to go!

  Moreover, he was very open-minded. Even if he were not the first to be addressed by his little sister, it did not affect his love for her!

  Little Yueyao yawned lightly, as though she was tired!

  Yun Shishi ordered, “Youyou, take your little sister back to her room!”
