Chapter 538: Chapter 486: Even if the Little Ones Mess Up, Qingqing’s Dad the Master Chef Has Got It Covered!
The afternoon snack time quietly passed, and the sweet aroma of sweet soup lingered in the air of Dorami Kindergarten. In each classroom, the scene had already shifted, entering a busy and enthusiastic state.
Inside the Little Class (4) classroom.
Yang Yuxi gently clapped her fair and delicate hands, her face beaming with a warm smile, and announced: "Children, it’s finally time for our long-awaited food stall activity!"
"Yay~"
"We’re finally going to make food..."
"So excited..."
"Can’t wait..."
"..."
The children’s cheers rose and fell, their little hands raised high, eyes shining like blossoming flowers, filled with a desire and anticipation for the unknown.
"Looks like everyone can’t wait!"
Yang Yuxi’s lips curved into a warm smile, then she gently guided them: "But first, let’s quiet down the classroom so I can explain the next steps clearly."
As her gentle words settled, the classroom gradually returned to calm, and the children focused intently, waiting for her next instructions.
Yang Yuxi’s gaze swept over the children’s little faces one by one, continuing: "Great, now I need each of you to gently move your little chairs to the corner of the classroom and arrange them neatly. Remember, after placing them, put on your aprons and sleeve covers, then line up to wash your hands until they’re squeaky clean, and then return to me for further instructions. Did everyone understand?"
"Understood!"
The children replied in unison.
"Very good!"
Yang Yuxi nodded slightly: "Then let’s get started!"
As soon as she finished speaking.
Excited little ones immediately began moving, struggling to lift their chairs and carefully placing them in the designated spots.
"Hmm, the children’s performance today is truly impressive. Let’s hope every step goes smoothly and there are no hiccups! Otherwise, our carefully prepared food stall might miss the auspicious opening time..."
Xie Jianing watched the little ones bustling about, a look of gratification on her face, yet a hint of worry quietly crept into her heart.
Yang Yuxi, however, smiled slightly and confidently said: "Don’t worry, the recipe we chose is quite simple, shouldn’t be much trouble. Plus, we’ve got Qingqing’s dad, the chef, here! We’ve got nothing to worry about! You, stop fretting."
Yes indeed...
With Qingqing’s dad around!
What’s there to fear?
Even if the little ones make a big mess, Qingqing’s dad, the chef, can handle it!
Worst case scenario, he can just do it for the children...
What?
Isn’t that blatant cheating?
But there’s no rule at the kindergarten that the children must do everything themselves...
So, this isn’t cheating, it’s more of assistance!
After all, the children are so young, asking them to do everything independently is too much!
Moreover, if things go awry, there’s always Yang Yuxi, the class teacher, to clean up afterward!
Surely it won’t be her, the cooking novice assistant teacher, to save the day, right?
Thinking of this, Xie Jianing showed a smile, remembering that Huang Jun said the ’spinach cake’ is so simple anyone can make it, her heart settled halfway, yet she noticed Huang Jun hasn’t arrived yet, feeling a bit puzzled: "But still, I wonder why Qingqing’s dad hasn’t shown up yet. It’s kind of curious."
"Indeed, I’m wondering too!"
Yang Yuxi glanced at the classroom door and thought: "Hmm, he should still be busy in the kitchen, probably he’ll come soon. Let’s set up first, get everything ready so that once he arrives, we can start immediately!"
"Great idea!"
Xie Jianing nodded in agreement, then teamed up with Yang Yuxi, along with Wang Wenxia, and together the three of them moved the small tables to the center of the classroom, forming a circular area, creating a temporary large cooking station.
Next, clean tablecloths were gently laid out by their skillful hands, softly covering each small table.
Then, various ingredients and cooking tools were neatly arranged on the tables.
"All set..."
Once everything was ready, the three meticulously checked again, confirmed everything was correct, and exchanged knowing smiles.
Just then, the children who had completed Yang Yuxi’s tasks perfectly, eagerly gathered around, raising their little hands high, eager to show off their accomplishments, their little faces shining with pride:
"Teacher, look, my chair is arranged, apron and sleeve covers are on, and my hands are washed squeaky clean with soap! Teacher, smell my hands, isn’t it fragrant..."
"Me too, teacher, my hands are fragrant, apron and sleeves not missed, all set and ready!"
"Miss Yang, Miss Yang, I’m all ready too! Can we start now?"
"Yeah, what kind of spinach delicacy are we making today? I’m so excited!"
"..."
Facing the children’s enthusiasm and curiosity, Yang Yuxi and Xie Jianing gently adjusted their slightly tilted aprons and sleeve covers due to excitement, and softly answered: "Alright, children, I understand. Today, we’re going to make a nutritious and delicious—spinach cake. Get ready, our culinary adventure begins immediately!"
Even before finishing speaking, Yang Yuxi opened the recipe.
