Chapter 485 - 446: Who Wants to Try It Themselves?
Inside the Dorami teaching building.
After the morning snack time ended, the children from various classes sat in their classrooms to rest, with satisfied smiles still on their faces. Their small noses involuntarily twitched, trying to inhale the lingering aroma of the five-spice eggs from the air, hoping that the wonderful taste would linger inside them a little longer.
In Class Small (4).
"Wow, today’s five-spice eggs smell so good, they’re really delicious..." Yuanyuan couldn’t help but lick her fingers, her eyes sparkling as she savored the wonderful taste of the five-spice eggs: "The egg whites are tender and smooth, and the yolks are soft and fragrant..."
"Yes, very fragrant. I can still smell the aroma when I close my eyes!" Liu Ruihan’s little face was filled with a blissful smile, instinctively closing his eyes, feeling the lingering fragrance in the air, nodding in agreement: "I love the yolk the most, it’s sandy and particularly fragrant."
"I think the egg white is tastier, smooth and a bit... springy!" Qianqian, unwilling to be outdone, waved her little hand, trying to convey the marvel of the egg white to everyone.
"Yes, yes, yes~" Tiantian added, "Miss Yang said that five-spice eggs are very nutritious, eating them can make you grow taller and smarter! I feel my brain is more agile after eating them!"
Saying this, she gently patted her small head, causing a burst of laughter from the children around her.
"Hee hee, do you guys think we can eat such delicious five-spice eggs again tomorrow?"
The glimmer of yearning flashed in Yuanyuan’s eyes, as her gaze involuntarily turned to Qingqing and Weiwei.
Hearing this, the other children eagerly looked at Qingqing and Weiwei as well.
After all, their dads were the key people in deciding what they’d eat.
Faced with those expectant eyes, Qingqing sweetly smiled and gently explained, "Yuanyuan, tomorrow is Saturday. The kindergarten doesn’t have school and is closed; we’re all on holiday. My dad will be on holiday resting too..."
The implication was... the five-spice eggs wouldn’t be available for everyone tomorrow.
As soon as the words were out, a hint of disappointment quietly crept into the children’s hearts, like a cloud passing in the sky, briefly blocking the sunlight.
"Oh, so that’s how it is..." Yuanyuan lowered her head, her little hands unconsciously forming circles, but soon, a new glow ignited in her eyes: "Qingqing, can I come to your house and play tomorrow? Maybe we can at your house..."
But before she could finish...
Qingqing’s answer immediately dashed the hope in Yuanyuan’s heart again: "But Yuanyuan, I’m moving house tomorrow, so I can’t invite you over to play."
Weiwei nodded vigorously, agreeing, "That’s right, we’re moving to a new house tomorrow, so we won’t have time to play with you!"
This news deepened Yuanyuan’s sense of disappointment, her little mouth pouting slightly, and the glow in her eyes dimming a bit.
The other children felt the same way!
The excitement and anticipation from earlier vanished from their faces, replaced by disappointment and helplessness.
Oh!
What can be done?
They can only look forward to the delicious five-spice eggs next week when school resumes.
As for why not ask their parents to follow a video recipe?
It’s just that their version tastes okay, but it doesn’t compare to Huang Jun’s craftsmanship at all.
Hence.
The children, spoiled by Huang Jun’s cooking, would rather wait than settle for less.
Opting for quality over quantity!
Their parents would surely be relieved knowing the kids gave up on having them try making it.
Otherwise, they’d probably find it overwhelming, considering there’s no video instruction from the kindergarten side for them to follow in making it... they can’t manage it!
Just when the children were eagerly anticipating tasting Huang Jun’s five-spice eggs again next week...
Suddenly.
Liang Yinqiu’s gentle and clear voice came over the broadcast: "Dear children, we’re about to have a special activity—a fire drill. Please don’t panic and act according to the teachers’ instructions..."
This unexpected news immediately shifted the children’s attention, their eyes lighting up again as the curiosity and excitement in their hearts bubbled like little bubbles.
"Oh, is it starting so soon?"
"Wow, a fire drill, that sounds so cool!"
"Yes, yes, we’ll be brave little firefighters, protecting our kindergarten!"
The little kids in the class were filled with endless anticipation for this unknown experience, chatting excitedly, their little faces glowing with eagerness and a readiness to try it out.
And at that moment.
Jiang Xuewei activated a smoke machine.
Moments later...
A light, gradually thickening smoke, like a mischievous sprite, began to quietly spread in the corridors of the teaching building, then sneaked into the classrooms through the door cracks and window gaps...
"Look, the smoke... the smoke came into our classroom..." Qianqian pointed at the door crack, her eyes wide open, full of wonder.
Weiwei continued, "It’s not smoke; it’s a fire..."
"Fire? What should we do then?" Yuanyuan panicked for a moment, forgetting the escape knowledge taught by the teacher earlier.
"Don’t be afraid, kids, quickly grab a damp towel, cover your mouth and nose, and line up to follow the teachers for evacuation!" Yang Yuxi and Xie Jianing guided the children while distributing the pre-prepared damp towels to them.
The children who received the damp towels immediately followed the teacher’s instructions, covering their mouths and noses, exposing only their curious eyes, and quickly lined up in pairs.
In the next second...
"Woo—"
A sharp alarm suddenly sounded, like a bolt of lightning breaking the silence of the teaching building, instantly enveloping the entire kindergarten in a tense atmosphere.
On the children’s faces appeared a trace of consternation, but it was soon calmed by the teacher’s steady voices: "Kids, be brave, don’t be afraid or panic. Remember to cover your mouth and nose with a damp towel, protect yourself, and follow the teachers closely as we evacuate safely together!"
Immediately.
Led by the teachers of each class, the children lowered their little heads, kept their small bodies in a bent posture, strictly following the escape rules taught by the teachers, and orderly walked out of the classrooms...
"Kids, keep up, don’t fall behind!"
Each class teacher encouraged the children, cheering them on.
"Got it, teacher~"
The children’s figures were faintly visible in the smoke, slowly passing through. Although their vision was somewhat obstructed, their eyes were full of determination and trust, each little hand tightly grasping the hem of the friend’s shirt in front, preventing themselves from falling behind while closely following the teacher’s steps to evacuate safely and orderly to the designated gathering area...
At this moment.
The air still held a faint smoke left from the drill’s smoke bombs.
Just then.
Steady, powerful footsteps came from one side of the kindergarten, and soon, Jiang Xuewei and other firefighters appeared in sight, dressed in orange protective uniforms and holding simulated firefighting equipment.
The children, seeing this, cast curious and admiring glances.
The teacher’s voice promptly guided the children to focus: "Kids, watch carefully, it’s now the firefighters’ turn to show how to fight fires. Please watch closely and listen carefully!"
When the words ended.
Liu Wujie, holding a fire extinguisher, stood before the pre-prepared safe simulated flame device, pointing to the small parts of the extinguisher with his finger while explaining their functions and operation methods in simple, understandable language to the children. He emphasized key points such as staying calm, standing firm, and aiming at the base of the fire when using the extinguisher, and reminded the children not to act blindly in a real fire, to follow the instructions of teachers and parents, and to evacuate quickly to a safe area.
Then, he gently shook the extinguisher to activate the dry powder inside.
With a crisp "click" sound...
He expertly pulled out the safety pin, revealing the nozzle.
He held the handle tightly with his right hand, with his left hand steadily supporting the bottom of the extinguisher, aiming precisely at the base of the simulated flames...
With a loud "hiss—"...
A stream of surging white dry powder erupted from the extinguisher like a raging river, rushing toward the simulated flames.
In just a blink of an eye...
The previously rampant flames were completely covered by the thick dry powder, disappearing without a trace, leaving only a misty white fog lingering in the air.
The children widened their eyes, mouths forming an "O" shape, simultaneously applauding and shouting, "Wow, amazing!"
Liu Wujie bent down, his encouraging gaze scanning the children in front, loudly asking, "How about it, kids? Who wants to try it themselves?"
"I want to try~"
"I want to try~"
"Me too, I want to try..."
All at once, the children’s enthusiasm was ignited, each eagerly raising their little hands, afraid of missing this rare opportunity for experience...
