Chapter 253: Chapter 238: Make It Less Tasty

As the steps of the Mid-Autumn Festival gradually fade away, this traditional holiday filled with reunion and warmth finally drew to a close, and at the same time, the three-day Mid-Autumn Festival holiday also quietly came to an end amidst laughter and joy.

Unknowingly, it ended!

This morning.

Huang Jun’s family is about to resume the busy routine of “those who need to go to school go to school, those who need to go to work go to work.”

Perhaps the three-day holiday was too pleasant and enjoyable, so much so that when she woke up early and learned she had to go to school, a trace of faint school reluctance suddenly appeared on Weiwei’s small face.

“Daddy, can I not go to kindergarten?” Weiwei pouted, a hint of pleading in her eyes.

As soon as she said this.

Huang Jun’s pupils instantly shook!

He never expected that this little one, usually lively and adorable and just beginning to take an interest in kindergarten, would actually catch the legendary “holiday school reluctance syndrome” because of the short three-day Mid-Autumn Festival holiday.

Could other children have the same symptoms?

As for the other children’s situations, he had no way of knowing at the moment.

But right now.

What surprised him even more was…

Usually gentle and obedient Qingqing also seemed to be invisibly influenced by Weiwei’s emotions and softly expressed her reluctance to go to school: “Daddy, I… I don’t want to go to kindergarten either.”

With that.

Huang Jun was completely speechless.

To be honest.

He himself didn’t want to go to work either.

After all, compared to the tense and busy work, staying at home enjoying leisure time, going out to play on a whim, is evidently much more relaxed and free.

But life cannot always be a holiday, everyone needs to work hard in their positions for a better future…

Kids are no exception!

They need to learn new knowledge in kindergarten, make new friends, and lay a solid foundation for future growth.

Therefore.

He could only firmly shake his head: “No, you can’t skip kindergarten. Little ones, when it’s time to go to school, you have to go obediently, got it?”

“Oh, got it~”

Qingqing and Weiwei, seeing that Dad directly rejected their request, felt a bit disappointed, but they also understood that Dad’s words were not easily changed.

They didn’t fuss anymore about not wanting to go to school.

They just frowned slightly and obediently climbed out of bed.

Seeing this, Huang Jun smiled and tweaked their little noses, coaxing: “Good Qingqing, good Weiwei, it’s almost National Day, just hang in there for a few more days, and we can have a holiday again.”

As soon as they heard the words “another holiday,” Qingqing and Weiwei’s eyes immediately lit up, and they excitedly grabbed Huang Jun’s hand and asked: “Really, Daddy, is it true that we’ll have another holiday in a few days?”

“Yes, we have seven days off for National Day! It’s even longer than the Mid-Autumn Festival.” Huang Jun nodded with a smile.

“Yay~”

Qingqing and Weiwei cheered happily.

In the end, Qingqing even counted on her fingers seriously, wanting to confirm the number of days off.

Then she excitedly looked up and showed the number seven to Weiwei: “Weiwei, look, it’s 7 days, much more than 3 days…”

“Alright, alright, go get dressed and washed quickly, or else breakfast will get cold.” Huang Jun urged with a smile: “After breakfast, we can go to kindergarten together, and then you can look forward to this long holiday…”

As he spoke, he helped them get dressed and prepared their toiletries.

After they finished washing up, he also put the breakfast on the table one by one.

A richly colored egg toast, along with a portion of grilled sausages and a glass of milk.

“Wow… today’s breakfast looks so pretty…”

Qingqing and Weiwei were instantly attracted by the egg toast on the plate.

On the plate, the golden toast slices were neatly stacked on top of each other, each slice maintaining a perfect shape and a tempting color.

The edges of the toast slightly curled up, presenting a crispy texture and exuding an enticing bakery fragrance.

On top of the toast, was a perfectly cooked egg.

The egg had a smooth, delicate color, with edges slightly curled, presenting a natural wavy pattern, like a light cloud gently covering the toast.

The center part of the egg was a bright tender yellow.

Around it were sprinkles of green scallions and chopped cilantro, adding a lively touch of color to the overall plate, also bringing a hint of refreshing aroma.

In one corner of the plate, a few small red tomatoes were quietly placed, on the other side, a gracefully curved line of tomato sauce lay there, waiting to perfectly merge with the toast and egg.

“Gulp~”

“Gulp~”

Qingqing and Weiwei watched, drooling and unconsciously doing a “swallowing exercise.”

Huang Jun, seeing the greedy looks of the two little ones, couldn’t help but laugh: “Haha, little gluttons, stop staring, be careful, your drool might really drip onto the egg toast!”

“No way, Daddy, that’s nonsense!” Qingqing shyly retorted, but the desire in her eyes grew even stronger.

Weiwei teasingly said, “Daddy, we’re not little gluttons, okay? Stop saying that!”

“Alright, alright, Daddy knows!” Huang Jun shook his head with a smile and then urged, “Eat up, you two little gluttons! Otherwise, it won’t be as delicious once it gets cold.”

Qingqing and Weiwei picked up the egg toast, took a bite, and the wonderful taste made them unable to stop.

“Daddy, the egg toast you made is really super delicious!” Qingqing praised with her mouth full of food, her words muffled.

Weiwei nodded repeatedly, her mouth bulging as she said, “Yeah, Daddy’s so awesome, the egg toast is really good, can’t get enough of it!”

Before they even finished one bite, the two little ones eagerly took a second bite. The crispy toast, tender egg, and ketchup combined perfectly, blossoming into a splendid feast for their taste buds.

So delicious, so delicious!

Qingqing and Weiwei were completely immersed in the world of egg toast, temporarily neglecting the fried sausages and milk beside them.

Seeing how much the little ones enjoyed their meal, Huang Jun couldn’t help but join in and “work on breakfast” himself.

With one bite…

It was the slight crispiness of the toast’s surface, while the inside remained soft and fluffy.

The toast, fried in butter, was further enhanced by a rich, creamy flavor, making each bite feel like being bathed in milky aroma.

Then, the rich taste of the egg gradually unfolded on the tongue.

The carefully cooked egg retained its natural tender texture and cleverly melded with the aroma of the toast, enriching the overall flavor.

Not bad!

Indeed delicious!

…

Around 7:40 in the morning, at Dorami Kindergarten.

Perhaps influenced by the holiday syndrome, as the teachers gradually arrived at work, a slightly fatigued expression was noticeable on their faces.

Especially Xie Jianing.

She seemed to be in a state of exhaustion.

Seeing her condition worse than her own, Yang Yuxi couldn’t help but ask with concern, “Why do you look so drained? It’s like you’re completely exhausted! Have you been binge-watching shows at home day and night, ruining your health? Haven’t you heard, binging is fun at first, but continuous binge-watching is a path to ruin? Are you taking this too far?”

Xie Jianing shook her head helplessly and replied, “Actually, it’s not entirely because of binge-watching. Mainly, it’s because I haven’t eaten Qingqing’s dad’s dishes for days. I just feel so empty and uncomfortable. To be honest, I desperately need his cooking to save my stomach and soul right now!”

Yang Yuxi puzzled, “Didn’t you take home some roast lamb? Couldn’t you savor it slowly? Eating a little each day to satisfy your cravings isn’t a bad idea!”

Xie Jianing lamented, “Oh! Telling this is sad. My mom found the roast lamb and took it all away, leaving me with nothing to curb my cravings for the past three days…”

Yang Yuxi: “…”

Poor Miss Xie, a moment of sympathy for you.

“Alright, alright, in about two hours, you’ll get to eat Qingqing’s dad’s breakfast, just hold on!” Yang Yuxi gently patted Xie Jianing’s shoulder, offering some comfort, then checked her watch and urged, “It’s getting late, let’s go to the entrance and greet the children!”

“After the holiday, surely many children are still immersed in the joy of the break and are reluctant to come to school…”

Remembering how hard it was to get the “little monsters” back to school after holidays, Xie Jianing felt a headache.

Just hoping today goes smoothly, not like the chaotic start of a new semester…

Yang Yuxi confidently said, “No problem, just use your ’food persuasion tactic’ to attract these ’little monsters’ with delicious food, how can we not manage them? Even if we can’t, we can ask Qingqing’s dad to help. Once he steps in, using delicious food to conquer these ’little monsters’, I don’t believe they can resist the temptation!”

“That’s right~” Xie Jianing’s eyes lit up.

The two headed to the kindergarten entrance.

Meanwhile, several other teachers from different classes were waiting, each showing a hint of concern on their faces.

Before long, parents started arriving with their children.

To everyone’s surprise…

The scenes of children crying and refusing to go to school did not occur. Instead, each child, filled with anticipation, happily ran to their respective teacher, some even excitedly greeting the teachers, saying they missed them!

This brought a small relief to the teachers.

However, they were puzzled by the somewhat serious expressions on the parents’ faces.

After some inquiries, they found out that the children had been longing for Huang Jun’s delicious dishes at home, eagerly looking forward to school, which disrupted peace at home these days.

Li Xiuxian said helplessly, “Miss Yang, Miss Xie, could you talk to the principal and ask Qingqing’s dad not to make the food so tasty these days? Otherwise, I’m not sure how to deal with the kids wanting his food during the National Day holiday.”

Qu Qing echoed, “Exactly, exactly. You have no idea how we survived these three days of the Mid-Autumn short break. It can be summed up in one sentence: ’If there’s no food, there’s peace between parent and child; if there is food, it’s chaos.’ So, it’s better if Qingqing’s dad makes the food less tasty so we can have a peaceful National Day holiday.”

“…”

Hearing this, Xie Jianing and Yang Yuxi were stunned.

Asking Huang Jun to deliberately make the food less tasty, it’s really something these parents can think of…

But, on a serious note.

What have these parents been through to say such things?

It must be an unspeakable story…

Actually, this situation wasn’t exclusive to Yang Yuxi’s class, other classes experienced the same.

Therefore, when the teachers of each class heard the parents’ requests, they were also stunned and couldn’t respond for a moment.
