Gourmet: Twins' Father and Chef of the Kindergarten-Chapter 50 - 47: No Hurt Without Comparison!

The Lin family.

"Pengpeng, Mommy specially made your favorite braised chicken drumstick, have a taste, it’s so fragrant and delicious!"

In the dining room, Lin Yipeng’s mom Qu Qing was holding a chicken drumstick, continually coaxing her son to eat.

But...

The little guy was not buying it at all!

The little head shook like a rattle: "No, I don’t want to eat braised chicken drumstick!"

"Mommy, I want to eat braised pork, the kind that’s delicious and fragrant."

"I also want to eat eggplant, crispy on the outside, soft inside, I want to eat a lot of mixed vegetables fried together, I also want to drink rib soup, with vegetables with holes in the soup..."

Seeing her son not eating even a bite of his favorite braised chicken drumstick, not even willing to taste it, and now hearing him babble on endlessly, but due to the articulation and speed of speech being a bit fast, it made Qu Qing and Lin Weilin unable to catch everything clearly, they couldn’t help but exchange a look.

Four eyes met!

They both saw a hint of confusion and incomprehension in each other’s eyes.

Could it be that today’s braised chicken drumstick doesn’t taste right, so the son is unwilling to eat?

Thinking this way!

Both husband and wife picked up a braised chicken drumstick each and took a bite...

The juice of the drumstick spread in the mouth, the meat was tender and delicious, not different from the usual taste...

But why did Pengpeng suddenly not like it?

To know, he used to love braised chicken drumsticks, every time there was this dish on the table, he could clear the entire plate.

Today, he wouldn’t even try a bite, not even looking at other dishes on the table, just shouting for braised pork, crispy tender eggplant, and such...

It’s really a headache...

The couple was so helpless, they could only let it drag on.

But they couldn’t bear it.

If they really don’t fulfill Pengpeng’s wish, the little guy would definitely go on a hunger strike to protest.

Oh!

Who told them to have such a stubborn child!

Their own, even with tears they had to spoil him.

Finally.

Lin Weilin couldn’t sit still, and gave up first.

Since the son wants to eat, then buy it, after all, the family is not short of money, besides, a child this age needs to be coaxed!

So, he quietly suggested to his wife: "Honey, Pengpeng is not eating at all, that’s not good, how about I order some takeout for him?"

"Alright, let’s order takeout!"

Seeing Pengpeng not moving his chopsticks, Qu Qing worried he might go hungry, helplessly nodded in agreement.

But then she reminded: "But, do you know what dish Pengpeng has been talking about? If the takeout isn’t what he wants, he’ll still throw a tantrum."

She couldn’t help but mutter: "Sigh, knowing this, I should have picked Pengpeng up today afternoon. Then I could talk to the teacher about his situation at kindergarten, unlike you, who picks him up just to bring him home, without even asking the teacher..."

Lin Weilin: "..."

So the son not eating is also his fault...

"Hmm... It should be the kindergarten lunch menu."

He thought for a moment, recalling: "When I picked him up, I glanced at the menu on the notice board in the kindergarten entrance, I roughly remember the names of the dishes."

"Guess you’ve still got some attention to detail."

Qu Qing was slightly surprised, and laughed: "Alright, then you order!"

Commanded, Lin Weilin took out his phone, opened up Ele.me, and while searching, he spoke to his son: "Pengpeng, tonight we’ll order braised beef and pine nut crispy eggplant, alright? Other dishes, I’ll order for you tomorrow, ordering too much at night won’t be finished..."

Hearing there’s "braised beef", "pine nut crispy eggplant" to eat, Lin Yipeng’s face that was almost scrunched up like a bun, relaxed, and this little head eagerly nodded: "Yay!"

After speaking, he ran over to his Dad’s side to watch together, then placed the order.

Soon.

The takeout arrived!

"Thanks, take care~"

Lin Weilin took the takeout, thanked the delivery guy, then closed the door, and brought the takeout bag back to the table, opened the boxes, and placed a chopstick of braised beef in Pengpeng’s bowl.

"Pengpeng, come, first try this braised beef."

Lin Yipeng picked up the spoon, scooped a bite, and put it into his mouth.

Eh?

Why does it taste different?

"How is it? Delicious?"

As they saw their son finally start eating, Lin Weilin and Qu Qing looked at him with delight and couldn’t help but ask.

However.

The anticipated answer didn’t come.

Just saw Lin Yipeng chew a few times, then spit out the mouthful of braised beef directly onto the table.

"Yuck, this braised beef is not tasty, not tasty at all!"

Not tasty?

Impossible, right?

He specifically chose a store with an excellent reputation and spent a lot of money!

Seeing this, Lin Yipeng was questioning his life, and even made Qu Qing’s blood pressure instantly rise.

A day without beating and he’ll climb all over the place, wants to eat bamboo layered meat?

If it weren’t for her constantly reminding herself "this is my own, my own", she’d really want to call her husband and give the son a mixed double beating.

Lin Weilin continued patiently: "Then try this pine nut crispy eggplant."

But the final result was the same.

Spit out mercilessly again!

Now, Qu Qing couldn’t stand it anymore, she couldn’t help but say loudly: "You said you wanted braised pork and these things, fine, we bought it for you, yet what do you do? You’re still so picky, must have been spoiled by your Dad."

"If you don’t eat, forget it!"

Forget it!

Anyway, it’s always his fault.

For the sake of family harmony, he reluctantly accepted this "big label".

After speaking, she picked up chopsticks and started to eat the braised beef heartily.

Lin Weilin hesitated: "Honey, are we really just not going to care?"

Qu Qing glared at him: "Don’t care! If he doesn’t eat, fine, saves wasting food!"

Seeing this, Lin Weilin said no more, obediently picked up his own bowl and chopsticks, and attacked the delicious dishes on the table.

Looking at Mom and Dad starting to eat the food heartily, Lin Yipeng’s big eyes showed a kind of confusion and loss.

Eh?

Why isn’t it like what I imagined?

Shouldn’t they keep coaxing me?

Actually, Lin Yipeng didn’t really not want to eat, he just ate something tastier at kindergarten, making him lose interest in home-cooked meals, and the takeout didn’t satisfy him either.

Oh well, just goes to show, without comparison there’s no harm!

Lin Yipeng rested his chin, full of helplessness in his heart. At the same time, he started to miss Huang Jun, even regretting not going with Huang Jun after school...

"Oh!"

He sighed softly, slid down from the chair, and went to the living room to play with toys.

Lin Weilin: "..."

Qu Qing: "..."

He really won’t eat!

Lin Weilin was somewhat surprised, and a little distressed: "Honey, look..."

"Don’t worry, let him be hungry first, when he’s hungry naturally he’ll eat."

Qu Qing said with determination.

Thinking about her son’s eating situation, she couldn’t help but wonder, are other kids like this too? Or is it only her stubborn son?

Hence, she picked up her phone, opened WeChat, tapped into the parents’ group, and started to type.

"Dear parents, today my Pengpeng came home and won’t eat properly, is it the same with your kids?"
