Chapter 221: Baby Competition

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
Babies were divided into different classes based on their birth months. Class One was babies born from July to August, who wore red racing outfits, Class Two was babies born from August to October wearing blue, and Class Three was those born between October to December, who wore yellow racing outfits. The maximum number of babies enrolled in each class should be no more than one hundred, twenty yuan per baby.
Mo Ye was assigned to Class Two with a small blue vest.
Li Qin happily helped his baby grandson put on the vest. After dressing him up, she could not help but kiss the baby on his face, encouraging him, “Come on, Yeye, bring the first price to grandmother!”
Mo Ye grinned with open mouth. He could not understand grandma’s words, but he was very happy because there were many babies around.
Not far away, He Xiyan rested on a bench. Three months of early pregnancy have passed, and she could not simply stay at home any longer and needed proper exercise. So she came to the park with the nanny and Qin Xiaoyu.
Qin Xiaoyu took Yuanyuan to participate in the baby crawling competition, which she checked to make sure that the competition was safe, and that parents could stay there. Although she wanted to see Yuanyuan in the competition, yet there were so many people that she was afraid of being stumbled and hurting the baby conceived. So she could only come alone to the lake side to rest.
The competition started. Babies in Class Two, eighty nine in total, were first to compete. They were divided into nine groups, ten babies each. The first two winners in each group could come to the second round, which was timed. Thus the baby who spent the least time would won. The top three in the competition would get prizes and awards.
Mo Ye was assigned to the first group, and would compete on the fifth crawling track. There was a footpath about one meter wide between crawling tracks. So when the baby crawled, one parent could walk on the pavement, encouraging the baby all the way. When the baby was not able to finish the whole way due to some problem or finishing it overtime, then parents could take away the baby halfway, suggesting that they gave up the competition.
The bell of competition rang, the whole field filled with cheers from parents.
Babies started to move one by one, all of who are of eight or nine months old. They all crawled around at home at this age, so many babies actually climbed very fast.
Li Qin was extremely excited, continued to encourage her baby grandson.
“Yeye, come on… Catch up with grandma, hurry up… Hurry up…” Li Qin went ahead and waved to his little grandson in order to encourage him to catch up. Mo Ye, however, seemed to understand and soon crawled over. On the 20-meter track, Mo Ye was the first to finish and won the first price in the first group, thus successfully coming into the second round.
Li Qin was so excited that her chin almost fell with thrill. She held up her little grandson and could not help kissing him again and again.
The second round would began an hour later. Li Qin took the child out of the competition field, intending to feed him some milk and millet porridge they brought with them. Having crawled so far, the little baby would also be hungry, thus needing to be provided with energy. What’s more, she hoped that Yeye would take the first in the second round. She also believed her grandson to be the best.
Handing the milk bottle to Wu Xiaomin, Li Qin told her, “I’ll go to the restroom first. You stay here to take care of the child. Don’t go anywhere else. And remember to change a diaper for Yeye after feeding him.”
Wu Xiaomin nodded. After all, she spent a long time caring for this little baby in Mo family, almost his half mother.
