My 2.5 year old daughter is slightly underweight, so people keep advising her fondly to eat more

Few days back, we were leaving to attend my cousin's wedding, when we crossed paths with one of our neighbour.

“So Kashu, all set for the wedding” the lady said to my daughter

“Yes Aunty” my daughter replied

“ Khaa pee ke aana waha se, moti hoke” ( do fill yourself up at the wedding and get fat) she said

“Yes Aunty”

“Bahut moti hoke aayegi na?” ( Make sure you get really fat) she persisted

“Yes Aunty”

“Pakka na?” (Do you promise?) She continued

“Haa Aunty, bahut moti, bilkul aapke jitti moti” ( don't worry aunty, I will be as fat as you) daughter replied

We bursted out laughing, my neighbour had nothing more to say to her.
