Chapter 471 - 432: A Heart Never Satisfied, Like a Snake Trying to Swallow an Elephant
"Pig brain porridge is here..."
With a shout, Huang Jun led Assistant Chef Qian and Aunt Li and others, pushing three carts loaded with delicious food, and slowly entered the bustling dining area of Dorami Kindergarten.
Wow!
Besides the roast suckling pig that looked, smelled, and tasted wonderful, each person also received an extra bowl of fragrant pig brain porridge. This unexpected surprise made the parents very happy, and they all said they didn’t expect such a big treat today.
In order to taste this delicacy as soon as possible, the parents quickly got up and eagerly said, "Chef Huang, let us lend a hand!"
"Alright, thank you all!"
Huang Jun agreed with a smile, always welcoming such free assistance.
With the parents’ help, the efficiency of the meal delivery increased dramatically.
Soon enough...
The steaming pig brain porridge was placed in front of the children one by one.
"Children, be careful, it’s hot. Blow on it before drinking!" The teachers reminded as they carefully adjusted the bowls for the kids, ensuring they could enjoy the meal safely and comfortably.
Once the parents had completed the task of delivering meals, they immediately returned to the carts of Aunt Lin and Aunt Li, lining up to receive their own share of pig brain porridge.
When it was Lin Weilin’s turn...
He scratched his head and with a big grin begged, "Aunt Li, Aunt Lin, please give me more pig brain porridge! I have a big appetite, and the roast pig earlier wasn’t enough to fill me up!"
These words caught the attention of Aunt Li and Aunt Lin, bringing surprised looks as they glanced at Lin Weilin, seeing his earnest smile. They exchanged a look, both smiling wryly.
Unexpectedly, even these small kitchen aunts found themselves being flattered by the parents one day...
However...
They couldn’t make such a decision...
They turned their gaze to Huang Jun, seeking his opinion: "Chef Huang, what do you think...?"
To be honest, Huang Jun felt a bit torn.
Though the pig brain porridge was made in ample quantities, if every parent made the same request, there might not be enough left for the children if they wanted seconds.
Holding the principle of "better for the parents to endure than the children," but facing the parents’ enthusiasm and expectation, he had to make some compromises.
So there was only one way...
Huang Jun nodded and said, "Alright!"
With that, he picked up a ladle and personally served Lin Weilin, trying to satisfy the parents’ requests a bit without reducing the children’s portions.
Seeing how readily Huang Jun agreed to Lin Weilin’s request, the other parents followed suit.
When their turn came, they said with anticipation, "Chef Huang, could you please serve a bit more? I have a big appetite and worry it won’t be enough!"
Huang Jun nodded and agreed to each of their requests, trying to be as fair as possible.
By the time these parents returned to their seats with their pig brain porridge, they noticed that everyone had almost the same amount of porridge, which made them pause in contemplation.
Uh...
Didn’t they say they would serve more porridge?
Just this, huh?
So the result of asking for "more" turned out to be Huang Jun serving evenly...
At this moment, Xu Sijun walked by with her bowl of porridge, which was noticeably a bit fuller than the others, raising a big question mark in the parents’ minds...
What’s going on?
Why does she have more than us?
With some curiosity, Lin Weilin asked, "Qianqian’s mom, did you ask Qingqing’s dad to give you more pig brain porridge?"
"No..." Xu Sijun replied with a smile, "I have a small appetite and can’t eat much. I was afraid asking for more would lead to waste, so I didn’t dare ask Qingqing’s dad for more. Although I really wanted to eat more, my body couldn’t handle it..."
As soon as she finished, the air seemed to freeze...
Lin Weilin and the other parents’ eyes wandered between their bowls of porridge and the slightly fuller bowl of Xu Sijun, causing a complex emotion to arise in their hearts, leaving them collectively deep in thought.
After a long while.
The parents slowly began to voice their thoughts...
"Sigh, I feel like Chef Huang taught us a lesson without us realizing it..."
"You can’t really say that. Chef Huang did give us ’more’ as requested. It’s just that with so many parents asking, this situation arose..."
"Yeah, you could say that the human heart is greedy, always wanting more than it can handle. Sometimes, less is more, and those who appreciate what they have are happier."
"But honestly, seeing Chef Huang’s actions gives me peace of mind about my child’s growth at Dorami Kindergarten. It’s truly a great kindergarten!"
"It’s just a bit regretful that Dorami only has a kindergarten and no elementary school. My baby will have to transfer next year, and I wonder how reluctant they’ll be... Probably cry and not want to move on to elementary school..."
"Exactly, if Dorami extended to elementary, junior, and even high school, it’d be perfect..."
"Alright, alright, don’t think too far ahead. Let’s just enjoy the pig brain porridge. Look at its texture, so delicate and smooth..."
"..."
At this point.
The chatter among the parents gradually faded away as their focus and thoughts returned to the steaming bowls of pig brain porridge in front of them.
Then, each of them took up a spoon and gently scooped up the porridge, watching its delicate texture quiver slightly in the spoon, enticing their taste buds and causing an involuntary swallow.
With each mouthful of porridge, their tongues were wrapped in a warm sensation, like the softest satin gently gliding across the mouth, bringing a comfortable and enjoyable feeling.
Next, the delicate texture of pig brain unfolded on their tongues, its sensation subtly between the silky smoothness of tofu and the rich creaminess of cream, offering the refreshing clarity of tofu and the creamy richness of cream, making them indulge one spoonful after another, lost in the layers of this delightful taste feast.
After experiencing the creamy thickness of the porridge base and the tender smoothness of the pig brain, they were deeply attracted by the rich layers of the pig brain porridge.
The pig brain had been carefully prepared, removing all off-flavors and preserving only its savory taste, with a faint sweetness that did not come from added sugar, but from the natural sweetness of the ingredients themselves, offering a sense of purity and authenticity...
They delighted in the delicate intertwining of pig brain and porridge in their mouths, involuntarily expressing their awe...
"Wow, this pig brain porridge is really delicious!"
"Mine too, it’s so good, I just can’t stop eating it, one spoonful after another..."
"Indeed, anything from Chef Huang is a masterpiece. Who would’ve thought something so seemingly ordinary could be so exquisite? Every bite is a pleasure!"
"I wish I could have a few more bowls... but sadly, there’s not enough... What a pity..."
...
The joyful dining time always flies by quickly...
Before long.
The belated lunch at Dorami Kindergarten concluded perfectly.
After a brief rest...
"Alright, children, it’s time to go."
With the gentle voices of their teachers, the children, under the guidance of their teachers and parents, lined up neatly and walked out of the cafeteria, ready for an afternoon of rich and colorful activities.
Meanwhile, Huang Jun and the other kitchen staff, helped by the staff from Xuanmen Bay, didn’t need to clean up the dishes and joined the children as they left.
Seeing Huang Jun and the kitchen staff heading out...
Chef Zheng’s eyes lit up, immediately gesturing to his assistant Xiaopan, "Xiaopan, come here, I’ve got something to tell you."
