The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 1206

Chapter 1206: Chapter 1028, The Eldest Brother is the Closest

February 26th, the twins turned one year old.

Having missed Daozi’s first birthday, Xiao Yeyang took full responsibility for the twins’ grabbing ceremony.

Dressed in bright red clothes, the twins were brought to the table for the grabbing ceremony, immediately attracting a crowd of enthusiastic guests.

The two babies were so well-cared-for, with their chubby, fair, and delicately carved features, their big bright eyes looking at everyone, seemingly melting hearts on sight.

Surrounded by so many people all of a sudden, the two little ones were not shy at all. Sister Daomang wobbled to her feet and giggled as she clapped her hands, as if interacting with the guests.

Brother Daomiao, on the other hand, was much more laid-back, sitting steadily on the table. When teased by someone, he courteously offered a smile, but it was fleeting, coming and going like a quick-change act.

This surely made everyone adore them.

Daohua and Xiao Yeyang stood on either side of the table, smiling and encouraging the little ones to pick up items from the table.

The little ones giggled while looking at the items on the table and then at their parents, but made no move to grab anything.

After a while, Daozi, growing impatient, came out from Gu Jian’s arms, stood by the table and pointed at a big red rouge box, saying to Daomang, "Sister, grab this one."

Seeing her brother, Daomang immediately started to babble excitedly.

"Sister, grab this one," Daozi reiterated, pointing at the rouge box again.

Daomang, eager to please her brother, grinned and grabbed the rouge box, handing it to Daozi.

Daozi happily accepted the rouge box, "Big brother will keep it for you."

Seeing her brother take it, Daomang giggled non-stop, then picked up a piece of cake and started nibbling on it on her own.

A guest asked at the right moment, "Little Prince, why did you have your sister grab the rouge box?"

Daozi replied, "Because sister has to be pretty every day." Then he turned his gaze to the unmoving Daomiao.

Brother isn’t very clever and often loves to daydream; he needs someone to nudge him to take action.

"Brother, grab this one."

Daozi pointed at a jade Ruyi the size of a palm and said to Daomiao.

Usually, Daozi often played a game with the twins where he hid toys and they would find them.

So, Daomiao also obligingly picked up the jade Ruyi and then stuffed it in Daozi’s embrace.

Daozi smilingly pocketed it, and the guests beside them commented, "Jade Ruyi, harmonious and auspicious, may the Little Crown Prince have everything go his way."

"Little Prince already has the makings of an elder brother."

"The Prince and Princess Consort are truly blessed to have these three adorable children."

The adults showered them with pleasing words, while Daozi gathered the items on the table and started playing with them one by one with the twins.

...

Daozi received praise from the guests during the grabbing ceremony and became even more inclined to play the part of a good older brother. Aside from attending the Academy, whenever he had free time, he would play with the twins.

"Mother, my classmate said that their younger brothers and sisters started talking after their first birthday. Why haven’t Daomang and Daomiao started speaking yet?"

Daohua: "Each child starts talking at their own time. If you want your brother and sister to talk sooner, you should talk to them more."

Daozi looked worriedly at the twins, "There’s nothing wrong with Daomang and Daomiao, is there?"

The twins gazed at their brother, not quite understanding.

Daohua rolled her eyes speechlessly, "You just take advantage of them not being able to talk yet. Otherwise, they’d certainly retort that you’re the one with a problem!"

After the twins started learning to walk, they spent most of their daytime at Nanshan Hall under Gu Jian’s care. This arrangement allowed Daohua time to handle affairs and also gave Gu Jian something to occupy himself with.

Gu Jian was not young anymore, and visiting the clinic was just a way to stay busy, but caring for the children was truly fulfilling for him.

Though looking after the twins required a lot of energy every day, it made him feel more and more invigorated.

"Daomiao, say ’great-grandcestor’."
