Youyou pouted at once and asked indignantly, “Why?”
“What if your arms aren’t strong enough to carry your sister and you end up dropping her?”
Little Yichen also came over and threw his arms open. “Mommy, let me carry her! I’ll definitely do a good job. She’ll be fine!”
Mu Yazhe grunted upon hearing this request, but he did not turn the boy down. Yun Shishi trusted him too, for he was taller and bigger than Youyou, hence he would be able to carry the little princess steadily. However, she still asked worriedly, “Do you know how to carry a baby?”
The boy nodded his head vigorously. “I know, I know! Auntie Yue taught me! And I did pay attention when she was teaching me!”
The method of holding a baby is also very particular. If the posture is wrong, the child would feel uncomfortable and cry loudly. Furthermore, newborn babies have very soft bones. If one were not careful, they might even get hurt.
Yun Shishi reminded him, “Then you must be gentle and careful.”
“Uh huh!”
Little Yichen immediately walked over and solemnly took his little sister from Yun Shishi’s arms. Youyou, who was standing by the side, could not help feeling envious. He was quite sure he could handle the baby but he was not allowed to!
“Biased! Biased! Daddy is biased! Mommy is biased too!”
He crossed his arms and sulked. Then he turned his head around and ignored all of them!
Yun Shishi smiled helplessly, only to hear Little Yichen suddenly whisper, “Little sister has opened her eyes! She’s looking at me!”
Hearing this, Youyou’s anger immediately dissipated. He quickly came over and saw that the little princess in Little Yichen’s arms, had suddenly opened her eyes. She had a pair of large clear eyes with long and curly eyelashes. Her eyes were dark and shiny like black agate!
She blinked, clenched her tiny fists, and looked at Little Yichen. The corners of her eyes crinkled up, and her cherry lips parted to reveal a radiant smile!
Youyou’s heart almost melted when he saw this. His face was flushed and he wished he could snatch little Yueyao into his arms to carry her.
However, this was just a thought!
Yun Shishi suddenly said, “This child doesn’t seem to cry much? I’ve observed that most other newborns do cry in the middle of the night, but little Yueyao only cries when she’s hungry! When the nanny changed her diaper, she was amazed as well. She said that this child loves to laugh and smile, it’s quite amazing.”
Mu Yazhe replied, “Just like you, she looks good when she smiles.”
Little Yichen treated the baby like a treasure. As he carefully carried her, he had a surprise when her chubby little hand suddenly reached out and grabbed his collar. He had no idea that a baby could be this strong, as she gripped his shirt and tugged at it. Suddenly, her two little feet kicked him excitedly!
Youyou was terribly excited as he observed his sister’s antics. He cried out and begged, “Daddy, let me carry her too? I’ll sit on the bed and carefully carry her. I won’t drop her!”
Seeing that he really wanted to carry the baby, Mu Yazhe nodded. “Alright!”
Thus, Youyou excitedly took Yueyao from Little Yichen’s arms. He had also learned how to carry a child from the nanny, together with Little Yichen. This was the first time he held his sister in his arms. She was so small and soft that he was extremely gentle.
When little Yue Yao saw him, she seemed surprised. She widened her eyes slightly and looked at him curiously. Youyou stared at her gently, his heart filled with tenderness.
