In the kitchen at Dorami Kindergarten.
Huang Jun had a bit of the small bread along with Aunt Li and the others to replenish his energy.
One must admit, the bread procured by the kindergarten is of quite high quality.
They chose a trustworthy brand.
The taste is excellent!
The bread with cream is rich and flavorful, with a crisp and soft texture that is unforgettable -- a unique aroma of wheat that lingers deliciously.
It’s obviously carefully selected by Liu Suyu!
It must be acknowledged that Liu Suyu, as the purchasing supervisor, is indeed competent.
Whether it’s the ingredients for lunch or snacks, she ensures the quality is top-notch.
With her in charge, parents no longer have to worry about their kids’ dietary safety at kindergarten.
Huang Jun thought about how he’d get to enjoy delicious snacks with the kids every morning, and tasty afternoon snacks as well, and he felt the al arrangents were pretty great.
He sighed lightly.
He stuffed the last bite of small bread into his mouth, chewed a few tis, and swallowed it, then went to the sink to wash his hands and joined Aunt Li and the others in wholeheartedly preparing lunch.
Today’s lunch soup is lotus root and pork ribs.
It had been simring since before Huang Jun went to Class 4 to deliver snacks, now spreading its aroma quietly throughout the kitchen.
Aunt Li and Aunt Lin, having just enjoyed sweet candies and soft, fragrant small bread, were still tempted by the aroma of the not-yet-ready lotus root and pork rib soup.
"Chef Huang, why do all your soups sll so good?"
Aunt Lin couldn’t help but sigh at the aroma: "Sa hands, but why are yours so skillful?"
And hers?
She had clumsy hands!
"This only proves one thing!"
Aunt Li jokingly added: "Chef Huang’s hands must have been kissed by God, and Aunt Lin’s hands were probably gnawed by a husky..."
The husky declares: This bla, it won’t take!
Aunt Lin felt like an unwitting arrow had stabbed hard into her heart.
Old heartache!
If possible, she’d want to take back her last words—was it too late?
Although she knew Aunt Li was just joking.
But when the words fell into her ears, they still made her feel a bit uncomfortable.
Because Aunt Li’s taphor was so vivid!
Seeing this, Huang Jun sincerely comforted with a smile: "It’s just that everyone excels in different areas, Aunt Lin. You’re actually very impressive—quick and clean in handling food items, that’s sothing I can’t match!"
These words hit ho for Aunt Lin.
Her mood brightened considerably, even her wrinkles smoothed out as she responded with a smile: "Yes, Chef Huang is right, everyone excels in different things, so the final result will differ."
She ended with a humble note: "I’m fast at handling food because of sharpening my skills for over ten years. If you worked as long as I have, you’d surely be even faster."
Aunt Li nodded in agreent with Huang Jun’s words, laughed, and said: "To be honest, when it cos to handling food, Aunt Lin you can claim first place, no one can claim second!"
Aunt Lin shot Aunt Li a speechless look: "Aunt Li, just keep teasing!"
"I’m not teasing, I’m just stating the facts!"
Aunt Li couldn’t resist teasing herself at the end: "When it cos to handling food, I’m not as quick as you—looks like it’s because my hands were gnawed by a husky many tis..."
As she spoke, she hugged Aunt Lin’s shoulder.
Aunt Lin saw her even mocking herself, so she didn’t mind anymore, laughed and hugged Aunt Li’s slightly broad waist.
The two were as close as one person!
Aunt Li then adjusted her crooked posture and said: "Chef Huang, your soup slls amazing, I’ll drink a few more bowls at lunch."
"Sure, drink as much as you want," Huang Jun replied with a smile, his hands never stopping.
As the kindergarten began preparing lunch, the parents, especially of the little ones, couldn’t help but worry about their kids as lunchti approached.
Scenic Garden District Building 8 Unit 1 Room 802, the Liu family, kitchen.
"It’s almost noon, the kindergarten should be having lunch soon, right?"
Xu Caihong was making lunch but her heart was always with her precious granddaughter Liu Yuanyuan: "Xiuxian, should I go to kindergarten now to bring Yuanyuan back for lunch?"
Li Xiuxian was also worried about her daughter in kindergarten, fearing she might cry, not eat her snacks well, especially lunch.
Upon hearing her mother-in-law’s suggestion, she was indeed tempted.
But she knew very well that the suggestion wasn’t beneficial for the child’s growth.
Ultimately!
Strong reason overca sentint!
She politely declined her mother-in-law’s proposal: "Mom, we agreed last night to let Yuanyuan have lunch at kindergarten first, let her adapt for a few days..."
"But..."
Xu Caihong showed a worried expression: "In a class with almost thirty children, there are only three teachers, they surely can’t manage everything, and they certainly can’t feed every child. I’m just afraid she won’t be fed, and will have an empty stomach at noon."
"Mom, don’t worry."
Li Xiuxian comforted her mother-in-law: "The teachers will definitely coax Yuanyuan to eat a few more bites, they won’t just stand by and let her starve, we needn’t worry."
Although she still worried about her daughter’s life and eating at kindergarten, she had great trust in the teachers.
She believed that even if Yuanyuan didn’t eat well at kindergarten, the teachers would take asures to ensure the child ate more, not permit her to just follow her own will.
"How can one not worry!"
Li Caihong sighed helplessly: "After all, Yuanyuan is going to kindergarten for the first ti, and has to eat alone there."
"Everything has its adaptation process."
Li Xiuxian continued to reassure: "Mom, if you really can’t relax, we can take so of her favorite stead cakes in the afternoon, go to the kindergarten early, and give her so food when school ends."
"Sigh, I guess that’s all we can do then."
Li Caihong nodded gently, although still full of worry, she understood that the child needs ti to adjust to the new environnt.
And she knew even despite her imnse reluctance, she must learn to let go.
While parents’ hearts were with their children in kindergarten, the teachers, especially for the little ones, eagerly awaited lunchti.
This morning was simply akin to a year for them!
They coaxed the children, played gas with them, yet so kids still weren’t cooperative.
Even if they weren’t crying, they were throwing little tantrums.
Plus, spoiled by elders at ho, these kids had no sense of collectiveness at all.
Like they had little prickly bottoms, unable to sit still, yearning to play outside.
The teachers couldn’t let them out!
If let out, the kids would run around the yard, impossible to catch.
To avoid trouble, each class’s three teachers kept vigilant, eyes constantly on their actions, ensuring they didn’t escape the classroom.
The teachers also stopped several kids who almost started fighting over toys on ti.
They hoped and hoped...
The teachers finally welcod lunch ti.
