"Mǔqīn (Mother) where will I put this one? Mu Mei is hungry now Mǔqīn (Mother) what time we will eat?" asks by my little girl who is helping me in the kitchen or office.

Mu Mei was asking where she can put the clean utensils. She is adorable and everyone in the hospital likes her. I don't like her here but she will make a big fuss if I leave her in the palace but now we are thinking of a way to separate her from me if we are in the hospital.
"Baby girl put it there in the table" I pinpoint the small table that she can reach where we put the clean utensils. "We will eat if your Dà gēgē (Big Brother) comes. Remember we will eat together with Uncle Jun Lan and Uncle Mu Shu?"
"Little Mu Mei eat this one first until you can eat your lunch." My mother is giving her a bowl of porridge that she gladly takes.

My mother is a very kind and loving person. She was very supportive of what we do and only giving advice when we need to make a decision but never stop us.
She taught what we knew and always remind us of humility. She was always telling us not to look down to anybody and tread every person as equal.
I know that my kids are royals but I wanted them to learn how to treat every as their own class. I wanted them to know that every person is the same and equal.
