Gourmet: Twins' Father and Chef of the Kindergarten-Chapter 66 - 63: Something of Utmost Importance

"Hmph~ What long-planned ’conspiracy’? This is clearly just a normal coincidence!"

Yangyu looked at the comments in the colleague group and mumbled softly.

Alright, alright~

She admits, she did have similar thoughts before.

But this time...

She swears to the heavens, it was really just a simple chance encounter at the garden gate!

However!

Seeing those colleagues in the group who were insanely envious and jealous because of this matter, she couldn’t help feeling secretly thrilled.

Hahaha...

Walk your own path and let others be envious and jealous...

"Oh, right! I almost forgot such an important thing!"

Only then did she suddenly remember a crucial matter.

Then, she gently tapped the phone screen with her fingers, opened the class group for Class 4, and began to type a message:

Miss Yang: @Everyone: Dear parents, tomorrow the leaders from the education bureau will visit our kindergarten for the start-of-term inspection and guidance work. To show our kindergarten’s unified image, all the children need to wear uniforms. Please prepare the uniforms for your children in advance to ensure they can wear them tomorrow. Furthermore, please make sure to send your children to the kindergarten by 8:20 AM to avoid delaying their group activities. Thank you all for your cooperation and support in creating a good growing environment for our children!

After the message was sent.

It immediately received responses from many parents.

Hanghang’s mom: Okay, Miss Yang, I will pay attention.

Miaomiao’s mom: Understood, Miss Yang.

Qianqian’s mom: Got it, thank you, Miss Yang.

Pengpeng’s mom: Okay, thanks for the reminder, Miss Yang.

"..."

Seeing the enthusiastic responses from the parents, which led to the original message being buried, making it necessary to scroll up to see the message, Yang Yuxi had to edit a new message as a gentle reminder.

Miss Yang: @Everyone: Thank you very much for your cooperation! If you have already read this message, please do not reply to avoid burying the message and affecting other parents’ ability to read it. Thanks again for your support and cooperation!

To allow parents who hadn’t seen the message to see it immediately, Miss Yang copied the previous message and resent it in the group:

Miss Yang: @Everyone: Dear parents, tomorrow the leaders from the education bureau will visit our kindergarten for the start-of-term inspection and guidance work. To show our kindergarten’s unified image, all the children need to wear uniforms. Please prepare the uniforms for your children in advance to ensure they can wear them tomorrow. Furthermore, please make sure to send your children to the kindergarten by 8:20 AM to avoid delaying their group activities. Thank you all for your cooperation and support in creating a good growing environment for our children!

Done and dusted.

Smelling the aroma of the food, she remembered Huang Jun was busy in the kitchen alone, while she was just waiting to eat, feeling a bit bad about it.

So, she decided to go to the kitchen to see if she could lend a hand and lighten Huang Jun’s workload.

"Qingqing, Weiwei, I want to go check on how your dad’s cooking is going in the kitchen."

"Huh? Miss Yang, you want to go to the kitchen?"

Upon hearing Yang Yuxi’s words, a trace of surprise flashed in Qingqing and Weiwei’s big eyes.

Although they were reluctant to part with the cartoon, as little hosts, they naturally couldn’t refuse a guest’s request, not to mention their minds were also preoccupied with their dad.

So, they nodded and said, "Okay, let’s go with you."

Saying this, the two little ones slid down from the sofa, each holding Yang Yuxi’s hand, heading towards the kitchen.

In the kitchen.

Huang Jun had already started cooking the rice, and tomato egg drop soup, stir-fried vegetables, steamed shrimp, and braised pomfret were ready.

At this point, he had also placed a whole piece of pork belly needed for twice-cooked pork into the pot, adding soy sauce and spices for initial seasoning.

That’s right.

The twice-cooked pork he’s making now is Yang Yuxi’s favorite!

Since he invited her for a meal, he naturally needed to make some dishes she liked!

Soon.

The pork belly in the pot began emitting an enticing aroma.

Many people remove the pork skin when cooking, but this is not a wise practice.

Pork skin is rich in collagen, and when activated by hot oil, it releases a highly appealing aroma.

The cooking time of pork belly in the pot also needs strict control; excessive heating will make the pork absorb too much moisture, affecting the texture.

Once it was slightly rid of its gamey smell, he quickly sliced the whole piece of cooked pork belly into thin, even slices, preparing for the next step of cooking.

At this moment.

Yang Yuxi, holding Qingqing and Weiwei’s little hands, arrived at the kitchen door and gently pushed the sliding door open.

"Daddy~ Daddy~"

Hearing the noise, Huang Jun turned and noticed his two precious daughters appear in the kitchen with Yang Yuxi, slightly surprised, saying, "Qingqing, Weiwei, why did you bring Miss Yang to the kitchen? Quickly take Miss Yang to wait outside, it’ll be ready soon."

Before Qingqing and Weiwei could reply, Yang Yuxi smiled gently and said, "I came over myself, Qingqing’s dad, is there anything I can help with?"

"No need to help, I’ve got everything ready!"

Huang Jun raised his head with a gentle smile, picked up the sliced pork belly, and reminded, "Miss Yang, you and Qingqing and Weiwei stand back a bit, don’t get splashed by the oil."

As he spoke, Huang Jun poured the sliced pork belly into the wok.

Instantly, a rich aroma of stir-fried pork wafts through the air.

Indeed, stir-frying pork belly is a skill that requires precise control of heat and time to ensure the oil in the meat is fully rendered, making it aromatic but not greasy.

"Wow, it smells so good..."

Yang Yuxi couldn’t help but praise the overwhelming aroma.

At this moment, she noticed some crushed garlic next to Huang Jun’s hand.

Curious, Yang Yuxi asked, "Qingqing’s dad, I noticed that when my Uncle Wu makes this dish, he sautés the garlic first before adding the meat, which is a bit different from your method!"

Huang Jun stir-fried the pork belly in the wok and explained, "Cooking details sometimes are like a double-edged sword. Sautéing garlic first does enhance the aroma, but the downside is that the flavor can dissipate very quickly."

"I like to sprinkle garlic just before it’s done. The garlic aroma might not be as strong this way, but it will last much longer."

Yang Yuxi wore an expression of "learning something new," realizing, "Oh, so that’s how it is!"

Huang Jun added a suitable amount of Pixian bean paste to the wok.

To make the dish suitable for his two precious daughters, he didn’t add too much.

At this point, the red oil quickly infused into the meat slices, adding an enticing color to the dish in the wok.

Then, he sprinkled a small handful of minced garlic.

In an instant, the aroma of twice-cooked pork filled the whole kitchen.

Yang Yuxi, along with Qingqing and Weiwei, smelling the rich and tempting aroma, began to salivate.

"So yummy, so yummy, daddy is so amazing, so handsome..." Weiwei licked the corner of her lips, cheerfully saying.

Yang Yuxi nodded with a smile, deeply agreeing.

Some say that a man working earnestly is the most handsome, while others say that a man who can cook is the most handsome!

Huang Jun’s looks were already very high.

Now, standing at the stove, cooking with concentration...

Made Yang Yuxi feel he was an incredibly charming man.
