Da Bao was the elder brother and the heaviest among the triplets. He was the first baby to finish the food. He had emptied the bowl, but he opened his mouth and looked toward his grandmother, wanting to have more food.
Miao Jing patted Da Bao's protruding belly. "Da Bao, be good. You are full. You should not stuff yourself with food. If you are hungry later, I will make more food for you." She noticed that other children were not as well-behaved and obedient as her grandchildren.
Miao Jing told the auntie to put aside Da Bao's bowl so that he would not throw tantrums as he was refused food.
It was easy to discipline babies under one year old. As long as they did not see the food, they would not pester the adults to give them more food.
True enough, once his bowl was put aside, Da Bao quieted down. He held a toy in his hands and twisted it about.
