Food: Taking the twins to kindergarten to be chefs

As time goes by...

A lot of parents and children gradually gathered in front of the Dolaimi Kindergarten.

Liu Yuanyuan waited expectantly, staring at the kindergarten gate without blinking. The tempting fragrance wafted over, causing her stomach to growl, but there was no sign of the gate opening and her mother had no intention of taking her in.

at last.

Unable to suppress her curiosity, she looked up at Li Xiuxian beside her and asked in a baby voice, "Mom, why are we standing at the entrance of the kindergarten instead of going in?"

Li Xiuxian gently stroked Yuanyuan's head and coaxed her softly, "Yuanyuan, be good. It's not time yet. We can't go in yet..."

While comforting Yuanyuan, Li Xiuxian's nose was constantly tempted by the fragrance wafting in the wind, and a trace of regret welled up in her heart.

I regretted coming so early. Now...

I can only stand at the gate of the garden and smell the fragrance...

Suffering...

"But, Mom, we have really been waiting here for a while..."

Yuanyuan pouted her cherry-like mouth and said aggrievedly: "You specifically told us this morning to come to the kindergarten early to eat delicious food, but now that we are here, we can't go in and eat right away..."

Her round little face was full of disappointment, and her bright eyes revealed a hint of "Mom, you don't keep your word."

Li Xiuxian smiled helplessly, then continued to comfort her patiently, explaining: "Yuanyuan, look at the playground over there, the teachers are still busy preparing. If we rush in now, we may disturb them and affect their work progress. So we have to be patient and good children, wait until the teachers are ready, and then we can go in and enjoy a delicious lunch together, okay?"

"okay!"

Yuanyuan looked up at the situation on the playground and confirmed that the teachers were still busy, so she agreed reluctantly and stood obediently in the kindergarten to continue waiting.

Li Xiuxian had just calmed Yuanyuan down when Chenchen from the nearby Class 3 started to pester Zhou Zhichong again and started to make a fuss.

"Daddy, daddy..."

Chenchen raised his little head, held Zhou Zhichong's clothes tightly, and called him in a baby voice.

Zhou Zhichong, who was already a little annoyed because he was greedy for the delicious food but couldn't eat it, became even more annoyed when he heard his son's anxious call.

He frowned slightly and asked, "What's wrong, Chenchen?"

"Dad, I'm so hungry..."

Chenchen blinked his big eyes and looked at Zhou Zhichong pitifully, expressing his demands, while also trying to arouse his father's love.

Zhou Zhichong took a deep breath and said patiently, "Didn't your mother put steamed cake and milk in your schoolbag? If you are hungry, just take them out and eat! You should understand such a simple truth, right?"

"Daddy, I don't want to eat steamed cake and milk anymore!" Chenchen's little head shook like a rattle.

"I do not want to eat?"

Zhou Zhichong's frown deepened, deep enough to pinch a fly to death. He asked speechlessly, "So what do you want to eat?"

"I want to eat food made from sorghum."

Chenchen gently tugged at the corner of Zhou Zhichong's clothes, his eyes sparkling with anticipation, "I want to eat in the kindergarten..."

hi~
Do you want to…

I want to too!
But the problem is...

We arrived a little early, and the kindergarten door had not yet opened to us, so we were unable to taste the tempting food for the time being.

Zhou Zhichong looked at the closed door, his heart filled with helplessness.

You know, he had specially left room for himself for this long-awaited banquet, and he hadn't eaten a single grain of rice from last night till this morning.

At this moment, he was already starving and extremely anxious. He wanted to rush into the kindergarten and have a big meal!

Although he was also extremely hungry, Zhou Zhichong still managed to hold back his hunger and comforted Chenchen, saying, "Chenchen, it's not time to eat yet. The other kids are waiting patiently outside. You have to behave yourself too. When the time comes, we can go in and enjoy the delicious food."

"How long do we have to wait?"

Chenchen pouted in grievance and said, "Chenchen's little tummy is already growling with hunger..."

"Don't worry, Chenchen."

Zhou Zhichong picked up his phone, glanced at the time, and said with a smile, "There are still about fifteen minutes left, it will be here soon!"

"It's going to take so long..."

After hearing this, Chenchen instantly wilted like an eggplant hit by frost.

In fact, we can’t entirely blame the children for making a fuss about wanting to eat. After all, the aroma wafting from the kindergarten is so tempting that even adults find it hard to resist, let alone those innocent children who lack self-control!

Following Chenchen, more and more children were clamoring outside the kindergarten gate for food and to go to kindergarten, which made the accompanying parents very anxious.

This is really a relief to come early, but it's a funeral home to coax the baby...

The scene outside the garden gate was seen clearly by Uncle Li in the guard room.

Seeing the children making so much noise is indeed not a good idea. It also affects the order and image of the kindergarten, and may even leave a bad impression on the outside world.

So...

He quickly picked up the phone and dialed Liang Yinqiu's number.

Soon, the call was connected.

Liang Yinqiu's puzzled voice came from the other end: "Hey, Uncle Li, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Director Liang, this is the case. A lot of parents and children who arrived early have gathered at the gate of the kindergarten, and the children are clamoring outside to go into the kindergarten to eat. I think this has a bad influence, so I came here specifically to tell you, do you think we should let these parents and children go into the kindergarten early?" Uncle Li explained the situation in detail.

Upon hearing this, Liang Yinqiu looked at his watch and found that there were only ten minutes left until lunch time at twelve o'clock.

She thought for a moment, then nodded and agreed, "Okay, I understand. Uncle Li, please open the door first and let them in. I will immediately notify the teachers of each class to meet them at the gate of the garden."

After hearing Uncle Li’s reply “OK”, Liang Yinqiu hung up the phone with peace of mind.

Then, still holding the phone, she moved her fingertips lightly across the screen and quickly edited a short but clear message: "Dear teachers, please note that many parents and children have gathered at the gate of the kindergarten. Please ask the head teachers of each class to go to the gate immediately to meet them and ensure that they enter the kindergarten in an orderly manner."

After the message was sent, within a moment, confirmation messages from the class teachers of each class quickly appeared on the mobile phone screen. At the same time, they all acted quickly, straightened their clothes slightly, and hurried to the kindergarten gate with a professional smile.

Yang Yuxi is one of these busy figures.

When she was about to arrive at the garden gate in a hurry, she saw Li Xiuxian and her daughter holding hands. After thanking Uncle Li beside them, they walked quickly into the garden.

See this.

She immediately stepped forward with a smile and said affectionately, "Yuanyuan's mother, Yuanyuan, welcome!"

Li Xiuxian replied somewhat embarrassedly: "Teacher Yang, we are here too early. We are sorry to trouble you."

"How could that be, Yuanyuan's mother?"

Yang Yuxi waved her hands quickly and said with a gentle smile: "This shows that you are looking forward to and paying attention to this event. I am really happy. Besides, Yuanyuan looks especially cute today, just like a little princess!"

When Yuanyuan heard the teacher's praise, her eyes smiled into crescent shapes and she said proudly, "My mom dressed me up!"

Yang Yuxi smiled and reached out to touch Yuanyuan's head, saying gently: "Your mother is really a skillful person, dressing Yuanyuan up so beautifully. Yuanyuan, today we are going to spend a happy and unforgettable Children's Day together..."

Yuanyuan's eyebrows curved and she responded excitedly: "Yeah, I know, we're going to have a big dinner today!"

"Yes, Yuanyuan has a really good memory!"

Yang Yuxi nodded in praise, then smiled at Li Xiuxian and other parents and said, "Now, parents and children, please follow me to the banquet..."

As she spoke, she took Yuanyuan's little hand and led Li Xiuxian and other parents and children to the small (3) class area on the playground.

along the way.

Li Xiuxian, who was following Yang Yuxi and Yuanyuan, recalled the process of the banquet and asked, "Teacher Yang, should we go and give the gift money first?" "Yes, where should we give the gift money?"

Other parents also echoed the question.

Considering that if the parents did not give gifts at this time, it would be a little inconvenient to stand up after they sat down later, Yang Yuxi nodded and responded: "If you want to give gifts now, you can, I will take you to Accountant Chu..."

"Okay! Thank you, Mr. Yang."

Everyone agreed.

Afterwards, the group moved to a corner at the entrance of the playground.

There was a long table covered with a red cloth, and Chu Qiwen was sitting behind the table.

Seeing Yang Yuxi approaching with several parents, she greeted Yang Yuxi with a smile on her face: "Teacher Yang, are you bringing the parents here to give us a gift?"

"Yes, please help collect and register it."

Yang Yuxi nodded in response.

"No trouble, this is my job..."

Chu Qiwen responded readily, then reached out to take the gift money handed to her by Li Xiuxian, and recorded it carefully and meticulously in the registration book.

At the same time, she also carefully reminded Yuanyuan: "Look, the table is full of various candies. If children like, they can take some to eat by themselves..."

"Okay, thank you teacher!"

Yuanyuan responded happily, and at the same time stretched out her chubby little hand, reached into the fruit plate, grabbed a handful of candies, and then shook them in front of Li Xiuxian with a smile, full of pride.

Faced with such a scene, Li Xiuxian didn't know what to say. She could only smile helplessly and let Yuanyuan put the candy into her pocket.

After completing the gift-giving ceremony, Li Xiuxian gently held Yuanyuan’s little hand and found a comfortable seat in the designated area of ​​the Primary (3) class.

Other parents who arrived early also brought their children, and after completing the gift-giving process, they all found and sat down in the seating areas of their respective classes.

It's just...

Sitting on the playground, parents could feel more deeply that the fragrance in the air was becoming stronger and stronger. It was like an invisible temptation, tugging at everyone's heartstrings and making them swallow their saliva uncontrollably.

Fortunately, the children were holding the candies they had just received from Chu Qiwen, which allowed them to temporarily forget everything around them and quietly enjoy the sweetness.

but…

Good times are not long.

The children soon began to think about the upcoming lunch.

This is not.

After eating a piece of candy, Yuanyuan couldn't sit still anymore. She leaned her head on Li Xiuxian's arm and asked in a baby voice, "Mom, why don't you start eating yet?"

Li Xiuxian smiled and replied, "It's not time to eat yet, honey."

"Ah, why isn't it time yet..."

Her round face was almost wrinkled into a bun, and she said with a grievance, "But I really want to eat!"

"Okay, Mom got it. But Yuanyuan, please wait a little longer. The banquet will start soon."

Li Xiuxian soothed her softly, and at the same time reached out and patted Yuanyuan gently, and suggested: "Don't you have some candy in your pocket? Why don't you have another one."

Although Li Xiuxian usually pays attention to controlling the amount of candy Yuanyuan eats, but at this moment, in order to make her calm down, she can only temporarily relax this restriction and use candy to coax her.

But as the aroma of food coming from the kitchen became stronger, Yuanyuan, who had already tasted the candy, instantly lost interest in it.

She shook her head firmly, making it clear that she didn't want to eat anymore.

The other children had the same situation. They all clamored to eat and didn't want to eat candy anymore.

This gave the parents present a headache, and they secretly regretted again that they should not have brought their children here so early to wait.

It’s so painful!

Without any choice.

Parents can only take out their mobile phones, turn on cartoons, and try to attract their children's attention in this way so that they can calm down and wait for lunch.

Fortunately, this trick is still useful.

The children were attracted by the exciting plots in the cartoons and temporarily forgot about the anxiety of hunger and waiting.

This time,

The whole world is quiet!

At five minutes to twelve o'clock, parents, holding their children, poured into the kindergarten gate in an endless stream. Liu Shiwei and his family of three also hurriedly arrived at this moment.

Then, led by the smiling Yang Yuxi, he went to Chu Qiwen to register the gift.

As the number of children in the kindergarten continued to increase, the playground became extremely lively.

The sound of conversation, the laughter of children, and the cordial greetings between parents intertwined and filled the entire playground...

After receiving the gift, Liu Shiwei and his wife found a seat with Liu Ruihan.

As soon as I sat down...

Liu Ruihan couldn't wait to look around, looking for her good friends Qingqing and Weiwei.

pity…

She did not see them immediately.

So she turned to Liu Shiwei and his wife and asked, "Dad, Mom, have you seen Qingqing and Weiwei?"

Wen Xueqin and Liu Shiwei looked around the area where Class 3 was located, and also saw no trace of Qingqing and Weiwei.

"Didn't see it!"

They shook their heads and guessed, "He should be in the kitchen with your godfather. He should be here soon..."

The voice just fell.

Then Xie Jianing came over from the kitchen holding Qingqing and Weiwei's hands.

Wen Xueqian's face instantly blossomed with a smile of surprise. She turned to Liu Ruihan and shouted, "Hanhan, look, Qingqing and Weiwei are here!"

After saying that, she waved her hand enthusiastically in the direction of Xie Jianing, saying, "Teacher Xie, come over here and let Qingqing and Weiwei sit with us!"

"Hey, okay!"

Xie Jianing looked in the direction of the voice and saw Wen Xueqin. She nodded at her and then led Qingqing and Weiwei to Wen Xueqin's table.

Walking up to them, she greeted Liu Shiwei and his wife cordially: "Hello, Hanhan's father, Hanhan's mother! I'll have to help serve the dishes later, so I'll trouble you to take care of Qingqing and Weiwei!"

"Teacher Xie, go ahead and do your work, I'm here for you!"

Wen Xue Qian responded with a smile, and asked Qing Qing and Wei Wei to sit next to Han Han. She and Liu Shiwei sat on both sides of the three little ones so that they could help pick up food and take care of the children later.

After a while, the playground suddenly became quiet, and everyone's attention was attracted by one voice at the same time - it was Liang Yinqiu's voice.

She was speaking through the microphone throughout the playground: "Dear parents and dear children, hello! Today is a special day. It is the Children's Day that our children have been looking forward to for a long time. It is also a big day worth celebrating in our kindergarten. In this moment full of joy and beauty, we decided to celebrate together with a grand food feast and share this innocent joy..."

"Clap clap clap!"

As soon as Liang Yinqiu finished speaking, the parents led their children and responded to this joy and expectation with warm applause.

Amidst the applause, the teachers came out of the kitchen with delicious appetizers, marking the beginning of this feast... (End of this chapter)
