Gourmet: Twins' Father and Chef of the Kindergarten-Chapter 183 - 174: Here to Attend the “Cafeteria Open Day”
The next day, the sunshine broke through the clouds, transforming into strands of golden light that gently spread over the earth, painting a magnificent light and shadow on the morning of September 18th.
At 9 o’clock.
The atmosphere in front of the Dorami Kindergarten gate gradually became lively.
The heads of the parents’ committee of each class arrived at the kindergarten one after another at the specified time according to the previous notice.
Among them were both full-time mothers and busy professionals, but at this moment, they all temporarily put aside their affairs to gather at Dorami Kindergarten for a common goal – the upcoming "Canteen Open Day Event."
"Uncle, hello, I am Lin Huiyi, the head of the parents’ committee of Class 3, here specifically to participate in the ’Canteen Open Day Event.’" Chenchen’s mother, Lin Huiyi, smiled as she walked to the gatekeeper, Uncle Li, and politely explained her intention.
Uncle Li recognized Lin Huiyi at a glance, feeling a slight and inexplicable ripple in his heart.
The reason is none other!
At the beginning of the semester, when Lin Huiyi faced Aunt Li’s hospitality, although she politely said "no need, no need," her hands honestly took away a pumpkin cake that belonged to him. That scene seemed to have happened just yesterday, still vividly imprinted in his mind.
Ah...
What a heart-wrenching past!
However, to be fair, he had already received the notice about the "Canteen Open Day Event" and knew that many parents would come to the kindergarten to visit today.
So.
Despite having some reservations about Lin Huiyi, he could only temporarily suppress those emotions and smile at Lin Huiyi, saying, "Oh, go in..."
Saying this, he opened the gate.
Following closely behind, Xu Sijun, Qianqian’s mother from Class 4, also stepped forward, smiling and echoing, "Uncle, we are also here to participate in this event."
The heads of the parents’ committee from other classes nodded in greeting, indicating that they were also here for the "Canteen Open Day Event."
"Got it, go in..." Uncle Li nodded with a smile.
In an instant...
All the heads of the parents’ committee filed in, orderly entering the kindergarten.
Inside the kindergarten at this moment, there was a hubbub of voices and a lively, joyous scene.
The children had just finished their morning exercises but did not rush back to the classroom under the teacher’s guidance. Instead, as usual, they enjoyed the fun of outdoor activities on the spacious playground.
The older children were immersed in the ocean of rope skipping.
Light as swallows, the skipping ropes fluttered in their hands, like a group of adorable little elves joyfully dancing around.
The middle children were engrossed in the fun of bouncing balls.
Their small hands skillfully waved and gathered, and the balls lightly bounced under their control.
And the youngest babies, due to their young age, had a special game arranged for them by the teachers, called "Whose Hat is Higher."
As soon as the teacher placed the triangular plastic hats on the ground and demonstrated once vividly, the children eagerly dove into the game.
This game was simple and fun; the children were paired up, holding triangular plastic hats, and hopped enthusiastically towards the finish line.
Every time they jumped to the finish line, they would carefully place their hats in the designated spot, and then excitedly await the next round of the challenge.
The children in the back were also eager to join, unable to wait to participate in this joyful game. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
As more and more kids joined the game, the playground resonated with waves of laughter, and the scenes of children engaging in different activities appeared so lively and vibrant, full of childhood joy and energy.
Therefore.
When the heads of the parents’ committee witnessed this warm and vibrant scene, they unconsciously slowed their steps, pausing to watch.
Seeing their children playing happily and laughing brightly, smiles naturally appeared on their faces too.
"Good morning, parents! Welcome to all of you; it is truly an honor to gather here with everyone. Sincerely thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend our special ’Canteen Open Day Event.’"
Liang Yinqiu, smiling broadly, walked forward and warmly shook hands with each head of the parents’ committee.
Lin Huiyi was the first to speak, "Director Liang, hello! This event is very meaningful to us, allowing us to better understand the little moments of life our children experience in kindergarten, which is wonderful."
Liang Yinqiu nodded and responded with a smile, "Yes, we indeed hope to enhance communication and understanding between home and school through such events, working together to create an even better environment for the children’s growth."
The other heads of the parents’ committee also nodded and said, "Indeed, seeing how happy the children are playing here, we as parents feel very reassured. The kindergarten’s various works are excellent, and we parents see it and remember it."
Liang Yinqiu felt truly gratified upon hearing this, "Thank you very much for the parents’ support and trust. We will continue to work hard to provide better education and services for the children."
Subsequently, Liang Yinqiu led everyone around, introducing the latest developments of the kindergarten along the way, as well as a series of upcoming new projects and activities.
When talking about the kindergarten’s educational philosophy, Director Liang proudly told everyone, "At our Dorami Kindergarten, we want to provide children with a warm and happy place where they can not only learn knowledge but also unleash their imagination and have fun. We especially focus on developing children’s comprehensive qualities, allowing them to learn while playing, and grow gradually through exploration."
The parent committee members nodded continuously after hearing it, feeling that the kindergarten was doing a fantastic job.
The mother of Lin Sixuan from the senior class, Mai Linjie, responded with deep feeling, "Director Liang, your words truly touched my heart. As a member of the parent committee, I genuinely feel how our kindergarten carefully looks after and seriously educates our children. I truly believe that in this place full of love and warmth, the children will definitely grow up healthy and happy."
The other parents also nodded in agreement.
Afterwards, Director Liang Yinqiu continued to accompany the heads of each class’s parent committee on a tour of the kindergarten’s facilities, explaining in detail along the way.
...
On the playground, a group of originally lively and energetic children gradually began to show signs of exhaustion.
Their originally cheerful movements began to slow down, and they started to become somewhat lazy.
Some squatted to rest, enjoying a moment of quiet; some stood in place, staring blankly into the distance; only a few still energetic little ones were willing to keep running and playing, releasing their endless energy.
Yuanyuan was also feeling tired, and even more so, craving something to eat.
So...
She approached Miss Yang Yuxi, looked up with a face full of expectation, and asked, "Miss Yang, I’m hungry, when can we have our snack?"
Other children heard Yuanyuan’s words and also looked at Yang Yuxi, chattering all at once, "Miss Yang, I’m hungry too... when can we have our snack?"
This group of little ones are all little foodies, it seems more like they’re craving a snack rather than genuinely hungry!
After spending time together, Yang Yuxi had gained a deep understanding of their personalities, knowing what they were truly thinking at this moment. She smiled helplessly and gently told Yuanyuan and the others, "Play for just a little longer, and then we can go back to the classroom for a snack."
Upon hearing this, Yuanyuan’s eyes immediately brightened, full of anticipation, she pursued, "Then what are we having for a snack today?"
Just as Yang Yuxi was about to respond, Weiwei excitedly interjected with the answer, "I know, I know! Today’s snack is fruit!"
Don’t ask why she’s so certain.
If you ask, it’s because her dad told her!
Yang Yuxi looked at Weiwei’s confident expression and couldn’t help but nod and confirm with a smile, "That’s right, Weiwei is spot on, today’s snack is fruit."
But this answer left Yuanyuan and the other children’s faces showing expressions of disappointment.
They were like wilted eggplants, murmuring weakly, "Ah... why is it fruit again..."
Compared to fruit, they were more looking forward to the snacks personally made by Huang Jun.
Those snacks not only emitted a tempting aroma but also had a unique taste, providing them with a sense of happiness every time they were tasted.
Therefore.
The snacks made by Huang Jun were the irreplaceable king of snacks in their hearts.
Yang Yuxi and Xie Jianing, seeing the children’s disappointed expressions, felt slightly affected as well.
After all, how can fruit compete with the aroma of Chef Huang’s snacks...
At this moment, Weiwei suddenly recalled and said proudly, "My daddy said today’s fruit would be a bit different..."
Upon hearing this, Yuanyuan and the other children frowned slightly, puzzled, and asked, "Fruit is just fruit, how can it be different?"
In their eyes, the differences between fruits were limited to taste and color, and it was hard to imagine anything particularly special about them.
Weiwei was momentarily stunned by the question, as she didn’t really know what her dad meant by "different."
Because her dad played a little guessing game in the morning and didn’t tell her the answer directly.
But she still believed in her dad’s words, so she tried to explain: "Although I don’t know exactly what’s going to be different, but if my daddy says it’s different, then it definitely will be..."
Qingqing, standing by, chimed in supportively, "Yeah, my dad never lies to me; if he says it’s different, then it definitely is."
Seeing Qingqing and Weiwei so assured, Yuanyuan and the other children couldn’t say much more.
Although they were still somewhat skeptical, they couldn’t deny being intrigued by Qingqing and Weiwei’s words and had a slight anticipation for the upcoming fruit snack.
That being said.
What could be different?
Yang Yuxi and Xie Jianing were also a bit curious.
However, now was not the time to explore this question.
Yang Yuxi smiled as she interrupted the children’s discussion, "Alright, alright, kids, no matter how the fruit turns out, let’s continue with our outdoor activities first. Once the activities are over, we’ll all get to taste these special fruit snacks together, and then you’ll see what makes them different."
The children nodded and continued with their outdoor activities.
