After Erbao had feasted somewhat, her little belly quickly became stretched.

Her great-grandma had prepared too many yummy snacks and she could not control herself.

Sitting nearby, Dabao reminded his sister gently, “That's quite enough. There's lunch coming soon.”

Erbao herself felt she must not eat too much. What if Great-grandma brought out tastier snacks? Then I can't fit them in my tummy.

“I am not eating anymore.” Erbao clapped her little hands. “I'm a sweet young thing with self-control.”

Dabao glanced at her baby sister. Oh, my goodness! You have the audacity to use “self-control!”

“Dabao, come with me to my study. Let me teach you some calligraphy.” Nan Zhengde was here to abduct the child.

“Dabao has just arrived, and he hasn't eaten many mouthfuls of snacks. Why are you asking him to practice calligraphy? Darling, you are such a troublemaker!” Feng Wan chided her husband.

“I'm not making him practice anything, but just watch me write. Children need cultural edification. All you do is stuff them with food!”

“What's wrong with feeding them? Food is important to mankind. Adults need to eat and children even more so. You write all the time. Does writing satisfy your hunger?”

Nan Zhengde shook his head. “Speaking this way in front of children is not good for their education. Dabao, let's go. Erbao, do you want to come along?”

“I'll be with you in a moment, Great-grandpa. I want to have a chat with Great-grandma first. She's so lonely!” Erbao replied lovingly.

“Oh dear! Look at my good little great-grandchild. She knows I'm lonely. You must spend more time with me, then. Your great-grandpa only reads and writes all day long. His life is so meaningless!” Feng Wan continued to chide her husband.

After Nan Zhengde had taken Dabao to his study, she picked up another piece of snack. “One more, dear?”

“No, Great-grandma, I'm full. I cannot eat anymore.” Erbao waved her little hands.

“Don't worry, they are not around. It's okay if you take one more piece. Children digest fast. It's all right to eat a bit more!”

“All right, then. One last piece!” Erbao could not resist the temptation.
