Chapter 148: Shouting

The two little siblings treated this as a game. The nanny hung the two of them up. They kept crawling on the crawling mat and even had to babble excitedly.
“Oh!”
“Yi!”
The two siblings seemed to be having a conversation. After one finished speaking, the other continued.
Seeing the two of them talking so enthusiastically, Tan Ming suddenly became invested. She knelt on the floor mat and watched the sister as she enunciated word byword, “Mom, Mom.”
Jiang Yu looked at Tan Ming in a daze. Tan Ming repeated herself.
Jiang Yu did not follow suit. She only revealed a toothless smile. Because she was hanging on the ground, her mouth could not close when she smiled.
As time passed, Jiang Yu started to drool from smiling. She was so silly that Tan Ming was amused.
Seeing her mother smile, Jiang Yu became even more excited. She removed her hands from the ground. “Oh… Ah…”
Usually, the sister was more lively than her younger brother and liked to talk more. She was like a chatterbox and would cry out from time to time. Therefore, Tan Ming did not give up. She carried Jiang Yu out of the big towel and continued to teach her word by word. “Mom, Mom.”
Ten minutes later, Jiang Yu was still speaking her baby language. Tan Ming pouted and gently poked Jiang Yu’s chubby cheek. She imitated a child’s voice and said, “Little baddie, are you deliberately not learning how to talk from Mommy? You say so much every day, but you don’t call me.”
Li Mei looked at the childish interaction between her daughter and granddaughter and hoped that such peaceful days could continue.
Tan Ming couldn’t teach her daughter well. She looked at her mother aggrievedly. “Mom, why doesn’t Jiang Yu call me?”
Li Mei was amused by her daughter’s silliness. As a mother who had raised four children, she decided to explain it seriously. “Every baby’s language development will be a little different. Some may be late, and some may be early.”
Li Mei usually paid attention to teaching the two babies to call their mother, grandfather, and grandmother, but they still couldn’t sound it out. They could only rely on patience to slowly guide them.
Tan Ming was a little disappointed. She comforted herself and said, “It’s fine. It’s fine if it’s later. It’s fine as long as the two children are healthy.”
Jiang Yi crawled to Tan Ming’s side from the other corner and placed his soft hand on Tan Ming’s leg. When he looked at Tan Ming with his peach blossom eyes, he blinked.
Tan Ming’s heart softened. She felt that she could give up her life if she was looked at by these eyes. She pulled Jiang Yi into her arms and kissed him a few times. Then, she carefully looked into Jiang Yi’s eyes. “Mom, who do you think Jiang Yi’s peach blossom eyes are from?”
Li Mei glanced at her grandson and replied nonchalantly, “My maternal family and your father’s family don’t have such eyes. They must be from the Si family.”
Tan Ming recalled the family photos she had seen in the Si family in the past. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t recall a pair of peach blossom eyes.
“Mom.”
A short and light cry interrupted Tan Ming’s train of thought.
Tan Ming looked at Jiang Yi in her arms in surprise. “Little Yi, call me that again!”
Jiang Yi was quite cooperative. He opened his mouth for a long time. When Tan Ming was getting anxious, he finally said, “Mom.”
Tan Ming looked at Li Mei excitedly. “Mom, Little Yi called for me!”
Li Mei smiled until her eyes narrowed. “I didn’t expect Little Yi, who doesn’t like to talk, to beat his sister to it.”
When Jiang Yu saw that her grandmother and mother’s attention had been snatched away by her younger brother, she was a little unhappy and started shouting again.
Her loud voice successfully regained attention, and Jiang Yu finally smiled.
Tan Ming stretched out her finger and tapped Jiang Yu’s forehead. “Little Tyrant, you’re unhappy after we were paying attention to your brother for a while.”
“Ah, ah.” Jiang Yu raised her head in response.
Li Mei laughed out loud. “I think for these two little fellows, the sister’s like a boy and the brother’s like a girl.”
At this moment, Jiang Huai and Jiang Hai returned home from outside. When they saw the few of them laughing happily, they also went forward. “What happened today? Why are you so happy?”
Li Mei smiled and said, “Jiang Yi knows how to say Mom now!”
Jiang Huai was excited when he heard this. He went up to Jiang Yi and said, “Little Yi, call me Uncle. Uncle will give you a big red packet later.”
Li Mei rolled her eyes at her son. “Come on, he hasn’t even learned Grandma yet. Go queue up at the back.”
Jiang Hai immediately echoed his wife’s words. “That’s right. After learning ‘Grandma’ he still has to learn ‘Grandpa’ first. ‘Grandpa’ will also give him a big red packet!”
The entire family was happy and harmonious. Unknowingly, the first snow of the year began to fall outside the window..
