Food: Taking the twins to kindergarten to be chefs

"Qingqing Dad, are you going to put this bed sheet in the bedroom?"

Yang Yuxi held a stack of neatly arranged sheets and quilt covers in her hands and gently confirmed with Huang Jun.

"Uh, yes, thank you very much."

Huang Jun's gaze unconsciously lingered on Yang Yuxi for a few seconds longer, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

At this time, Wen Xueqian's clear voice came from the kitchen. She was holding pots and pans, busy and orderly placing them in the second cabinet in the kitchen: "Chef Huang, I have sorted out the kitchen utensils you brought and put them there."

"Oh, that's great. Thank you for your hard work." Huang Jun responded gratefully.

On the other side, Chu Qiwen walked lightly to Huang Jun's side, pointed her finger at a blank space on the wall not far away, and suggested, "Chef Huang, do you think it would be appropriate to hang these two paintings of Qingqing and Weiwei here?"

Huang Jun nodded happily: "Well, this location is well chosen, very suitable."

Then, Liu Shiwei and Chef Ge held two pots of green plants in their hands and suggested, "Chef Huang (Master), we want to put these two pots of green plants on both sides of the TV cabinet, what do you think?"

"Of course, let's do as you wish!"

Huang Jun agreed readily.

As the host, he should have taken on the busy role, shuttling around every corner, tidying up things and preparing food for the guests; and as the guests, they should have immersed themselves in the leisurely feeling of being so attentively entertained and enjoyed a relaxing time.

After all, according to the etiquette of the world, how can the host let the guests work while standing by and watching?
But no matter what...

Huang Jun was overwhelmed by the enthusiasm and initiative of these guests. He could only accept their kindness with pleasure and was forced to become a happy "hands-off boss", enjoying the warmth and care from friends and colleagues, quietly starting the "accompanying the baby" mode and occasionally responding to the questions of these guests.

The reason why Liu Shiwei and others were so proactive in helping Huang Jun and allowing him to rest was naturally because they had their own little thoughts - they hoped that Huang Jun could conserve his energy so as to cook a delicious lunch for them.

After all, good steel is used on the blade!
Time passed quietly without anyone noticing. With everyone's joint efforts, this new home gradually exuded the charm of life...

Huang Jun looked around at the people who had just finished their work and looked tired but satisfied. He felt deeply grateful and suggested with a smile, "Everyone, you have all worked hard and it is getting late. How about we go out for lunch at noon? What do you think?"

"Hey, Chef Huang, why spend so much money? Isn't it good enough to just have a couple of bites at home?"

Liu Shiwei expressed his thoughts with a smile.

He specially came here to help out despite his busy schedule, mainly because he agreed with everyone else's idea and came here for Huang Jun's cooking skills. If they ate out, wouldn't their plans be completely thwarted?

so!

It's impossible to go out to eat. It's impossible to go out to eat in this life.

"Yes, yes, Master, why spend this money? Besides, the food outside is no match for your cooking! Mr. Qian and I are in the same business, we can help you, and a meal can be prepared in minutes." Chef Ge also agreed with a smile, and at the end he looked at Qian Guoxiang and asked, "You say, right, Mr. Qian?"

Qian Guoxiang nodded: "Yes, yes, the restaurants around here are not very good. Although the prices are affordable, the quality is worrying, so it is better to cook at home!"

Liang Yinqiu and others also nodded.

Faced with everyone's enthusiasm and persistence, Huang Jun explained with some embarrassment: "But I didn't prepare the ingredients in advance today. I'm afraid it will be too late to go to the market to buy them now."

Liu Shiwei smiled and volunteered, "Chef Huang, leave this to me! Just tell me what ingredients you need, and I'll ask Dong Yuantao to buy them and send them over immediately. I guarantee that it won't delay our lunch time."

"Yes, Chef Huang, you're welcome. Just tell me what materials you need. I'll contact the supplier and they can deliver them quickly." Liu Suyu took the opportunity to express his support.

Liu Shiwei smiled, waved his hand, and said sincerely: "Manager Liu, let me arrange it this time. My assistant is very efficient and will ensure that everyone can eat hot meals in time."

Seeing this, Liu Suyu could no longer insist, so she smiled and nodded in agreement: "Okay, then I'll trouble you, Mr. Liu!"

No, no, this is what I should do." Liu Shiwei quickly waved his hand in response, then turned his gaze to Huang Jun, hoping that he would make the decision.

Huang Jun naturally followed the public opinion.

He thought for a moment and said, "Today we are short on time, so I'll keep it simple. How about buying some swimming crabs and rice cakes? I'll make fried rice cakes with swimming crabs for everyone."

This proposal received an immediate response.

"Great! Chef Huang's dishes must be top quality. We are in for a treat today!"

"Stir-fried rice cake with swimming crab is the 'white moonlight' in my heart. I am so lucky to have the opportunity to taste the stir-fried rice cake with swimming crab made by Chef Huang today. It must be delicious..."

"It's a pleasure to watch Chef Huang cook. He can always turn some ordinary ingredients into unforgettable delicacies. I am looking forward to Chef Huang's fried rice cake with swimming crab."

"..."

"Alright, alright, stop praising me. I'm going to get carried away if you keep praising me."

Huang Jun interrupted everyone's praise with a smile, then turned to Liu Shiwei and said, "Boss Liu, please arrange for someone to buy the ingredients as soon as possible. We will try to have dinner as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, Chef Huang, leave this to me. I guarantee you'll be satisfied." Liu Shiwei readily agreed, and his fingers involuntarily slid to the phone in his pocket. Before taking action, he asked carefully: "Chef Huang, for the seafood part, in addition to the existing list, do you need to buy anything else? For example, more kinds of seafood and other meats?"

Huang Jun smiled slightly and patted Liu Shiwei on the shoulder: "Boss Liu, I always trust your vision, just do it according to your idea."

After saying that, he turned and walked into the kitchen and began to busy himself with other preparations.

"Okay, since you said that, I'll just do it!"

As Liu Shiwei spoke, he walked to the balcony, called his assistant, and began to arrange the food purchasing matters in an orderly manner.

……

Time passed by silently like a stream. Suddenly, a steady and powerful sound of footsteps echoed outside the door. Then, the door opened slightly, and Dong Yuantao walked in slowly with a cart, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

On the cart, there are all kinds of seafood, from plump swimming crabs to majestic lobsters, to fresh abalone and plump oysters...

Each one exudes an attractive luster, and their large size and excellent quality all highlight their noble status from the deep sea. There are also some other meat ingredients and side dishes that are equally eye-catching...

"Assistant Dong, the seafood and meat you purchased are really eye-opening."

Standing in front of the piles of fresh ingredients, Huang Jun couldn't help but sigh, secretly admiring the "rich and willful" behind it.

Dong Yuantao smiled and responded, "Chef Huang, this is strictly in accordance with the instructions of General Manager Liu. He specifically asked that the freshest and top-quality ingredients be used so that the lunch dishes can reach the highest level."

Liu Shiwei interjected: "As the saying goes, a good horse deserves a good saddle, and top-notch cooking skills must be paired with top-notch ingredients to show their true colors."

Huang Jun seemed a little hesitant: "It's just that the sheer number and value are truly staggering."

Liu Shiwei smiled generously: "Food is meant to be enjoyed, so why should we be overly fussy about it? Letting our taste buds enjoy themselves is the true meaning of our pursuit."

"Master, what are you going to do with these seafood?" Chef Ge asked with a smile.

Huang Jun really hasn’t thought this through yet!

I need to think about this carefully! (End of this chapter)
