She takes after their mother.

Explanation:

AS you can read in the excerpt and the examples of things that she often says, you can see that she is closer to their mother in the way of doing things and how she relates with her brother, that is why the things that she says to him are "mother-like" because she has that protectvie bossy side of her more developed, just like her mother.
