Chapter 268: Juan tea shop.
Chi Lian turned around and looked at everyone with a burning gaze because she needed them to confirm that her ears did not just deceive her.
"Everyone, you heard that right? My baby just called me mummy." She said in a teary voice.
Without waiting for their answer, she turned around and gripped little monk by the shoulders, she was all but short of shaking him like a rug doll.
"Baby, say it again, call me mummy." She said eagerly.
Mama Chi pushed her sons out of the way and approached little monk too. "Baby, say grandma." She looked at him eagerly too.
Papa Chi and the Jun grandparents would not be left behind. Suddenly, everyone was gathered around little monk eagerly shouting for him to call them something. It looked sort of like a crowded market with everyone surrounding one particular vendor.
Their enthusiasm probably scared little monk so much that the boy suddenly burst into tears.
"Why is he crying?" the old madam asked worriedly.
"I think we have overwhelmed him." Chi Lian hurried to hug her son and comfort him. "Its okay baby, you can take your time okay." She whispered.
Everyone else stepped away to give them some breathing space and relieve the pressure and discomfort they had unnecessarily put on the little boy.
"At least we know now that he can talk for sure." The old madam said while wiping tears from her eyes.
