Daddy's Gourmet Shop-Chapter 430 - 420: The Dining Area Bustles with Life!
All I can say is that some people are happy and some are sad!
After school ended, Ye Wen and Xu Weiwei, unlike usual days, didn’t leave right away after seeing the children off.
Instead, they stayed in the kindergarten with the other teachers.
They started decorating the kindergarten space.
After all, New Year’s Day is coming, and they need to prepare in advance to create a festive atmosphere.
This way, they won’t be too rushed on New Year’s Day.
To highlight the cheerful and auspicious festive atmosphere,
They used red to enhance the festive atmosphere, making garlands, colored rings, colored balls, lanterns, window decals, paper flowers, and small folk decorations to adorn the entire activity room.
In the center of the hall, a new year wish tree was set up, pre-decorated with some lights, allowing children and parents to hang wish cards on it later.
A signature wall was also set up on one big wall in the hall, where each class of children can sign, secured with colored threads.
The corridors’ sides were also adorned with images related to New Year’s customs.
As for the corridor’s ceiling, it too was adorned with New Year decorations by the teachers.
By the time they finished bustling around, the sky outside had turned dark.
Everybody felt a bit hungry, so they wrapped up their work quickly, planning to continue with renewed effort the next day.
Then...
They each tidied up their offices, locked the doors, and went downstairs.
They greeted the security guard at the school gate before leaving.
Initially, they planned to have dinner at the Delicious Restaurant, but then thought, at this hour, it’s unlikely they’d even get a bowl of braised meat rice, let alone their new Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce.
Sigh!
The food at Delicious Restaurant is too popular!
It’s reached the point where just being a bit late means you can’t get anything!
Thinking this way, both Ye Wen and Xu Weiwei decided not to bother, to avoid a fruitless trip.
"We just have to keep ourselves from thinking about it."
Xu Weiwei, feeling helpless, could only self-console, "If we don’t think about it, we won’t crave it."
Ye Wen sighed hopelessly too, "Sigh! Let’s consider it dieting."
However, since they couldn’t eat it, they decided to look at the social media shares of those customers who managed to get the Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce, and appreciate the authentic expressions of delight!
After all, seeing it equals eating it!
They opened up Weibo.
Sure enough, they found plenty of shares.
Like most people, they first scrolled through the photos, then read the text.
"Huh? Why are all these users drinking the same beverage tonight? Why does it look a bit like green bean sand?"
As Ye Wen scrolled down, she took a glance at the food photos and couldn’t help but wonder.
Beside her, Xu Weiwei who was scrolling too, said with a face full of envy and regret, "Sigh, what a pity! We missed a billion dollars tonight! Mr. Xuan’s place had a promotion, buy Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce and get a green bean milkshake, it looks so good! Even from behind the screen, I’m drooling."
The pain of seeing but not obtaining is something only those who’ve experienced it can understand!
If she had known earlier about the green bean milkshake promotion at Delicious Restaurant, she would’ve faked sick leave just to stand in line!
But alas, there are no ifs...
"What? Green bean milkshake???"
Ye Wen’s eyes widened in disbelief.
She quickly lowered her head to read the Weibo captions she hadn’t gotten to yet.
The Happiness Tonight is a Gift from Delicious Restaurant: Boss Huang’s green bean milkshake is exceptionally delicious~ The ice is smooth, the green beans are soft, glutinous, and sweet, and the milk flavor is rich and fragrant. In a warm air-conditioned room during winter, having a cup of this cool green bean milkshake is truly delightful! Have to say, Boss Huang’s skills are top-notch. Image jpg.
I Am the Real Fairy: The dieters love the Jiang Clan’s gift of this green bean milkshake, you can tell it’s all-natural with the first sip, completely sugar-free, just the delicious taste of boiled green beans and fragrant milk, the ice is absolutely perfect.
Nanny Rong’s Daughter in Our Class: Hehe, tonight at Delicious Restaurant, there’s a promotion with Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce and green bean milkshake, I’ve already had it, taste is incredible, pure green bean sand with milk, perfectly blended ice, low sugar, low calorie, super healthy~"
"This time I’ve really missed out big time, I really want to try this green bean milkshake! It looks like it’s ten thousand times better than the milk tea we usually order! Sigh! I wonder if tomorrow when we buy Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce, they’ll still be giving free drinks..."
Ye Wen let out a long sigh of helplessness.
She clicked on Delicious’s official account to check for any updates.
Many others had the same thought.
Missing out on Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce was already enough to make one want to cry.
And now, they missed out on the green bean milkshake too...
They were undeniably filled with regret!
Ahem~
It’s not that these people are unsophisticated.
Actually, many milk tea shops in the market sell green bean milkshake.
But can those milk tea shop’s green bean milkshakes compare to Delicious Restaurant’s green bean milkshake?
Just the color of this green bean milkshake alone already beats those milk tea shop’s versions!
Moreover, seeing some customer comments saying this green bean milkshake has no added sugars, just the pure taste of green bean sand and milk.
The dieters envied it even more.
So then...
One after another, they flocked to the Delicious’s official account, all kinds of wailing.
Unfortunately...
They didn’t get any official response.
The official Weibo manager, Huang Tao, although he was already off from cooking, was busy with procurement matters.
He had no time to go on Weibo!
He was contacting his hometown vendor Old Gen, who previously sold him sesame, via WeChat to inquire if there were any homegrown green beans.
He wanted the same quality as the green beans sent to him last time.
If they are available, he wished to purchase 300 pounds.
Soon.
Old Gen saw the message from Huang Tao and was slightly surprised.
When he initially gave those 20 pounds of green beans to Huang Tao, he really intended for him to try them.
Thinking that if Huang Tao found them good quality and happened to need them,
It might lead to a larger purchase.
Who knew the expectation would come true!
Old Gen quickly replied that he had them, and he could deliver them by tomorrow if needed.
He also offered Huang Tao his lowest price.
After all, this was a win-win situation!
Once the price was settled, Huang Tao readily transferred the payment via WeChat and asked Old Gen to deliver them around 9 a.m. the next day.
Old Gen was naturally eager to agree without delay.
Huang Tao chuckled, as he was just about to put away his phone, when a pair of small hands quietly reached from behind and gently covered his eyes.
Soon a sweet and gentle voice sounded by his ear, "Daddy, guess who I am?"
Uh~
Oh dear~
Your little "Daddy," isn’t that a giveaway!
The moment Huang Tao heard Xuanxuan’s voice, he felt both amused and at a loss.
The diners still eating in the restaurant couldn’t help but chuckle "Pfft" at this sight and hearing Xuanxuan.
Xuanxuan pouted, "Shh," signaling them to keep quiet.
The diners, seeing this, nodded in agreement.
At the end, they couldn’t resist mimicking a zipper being pulled shut on their lips, quietly not making a peep.
Huang Tao made an effort to guess, "Is it Suqin?"
"Nope!"
"Then is it Peppa Pig?"
"Nope, still not right!"
"Oh... I know..."
Huang Tao pretended to have a sudden realization and confidently said, "It must be our lazy Mimi!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and scooped up the cute little figure behind him, showering her rosy little cheeks with kisses, "Just as I suspected!"
"Hee hee hee..."
Xuanxuan couldn’t help but let out a string of bell-like laughter, turning her head to avoid him, and protested, "I am not lazy Mimi!"
The joyful laughter echoed throughout the small restaurant, weaving a happy melody, and instantly livening up the previously quiet dining area!
