Chapter 236
Early the next morning, just as the sky was getting light, Yunmian was awakened by the faint smell of pumpkin coming from outside the room.
"Mianmian, good morning." The system heard the noise and flew in from outside the door, touching the child's rosy cheek.
"Good morning, Uncle System..." Yun Mian crawled out of the bed holding the light ball and a messy bun on her head. She was wearing slippers, yawning, and staggering as she sleepwalked to the kitchen door following the fragrance.
In the kitchen, Yun Jinyan's thin figure was busy in front of the stove.
She was wearing a childish apron, her hair was simply pinned back with a clip, and she was still wearing a thin nightgown. The thick wooden chopping board in front of her had already been chopped into small pieces of radish, and the pot next to her was filled with golden and thick pumpkin porridge, which was bubbling over the lowest heat. Every time a bubble popped, a sweet and rich pumpkin aroma would fill the kitchen.
"Good morning, Mom~" The child leaned on the door frame, unable to open his eyes lazily.
Yun Jinyan didn't even turn around when she heard the noise. She was still busy with her breakfast and reminded the little one, "Hurry up and wash your hands and face. Remember to brush your teeth for three minutes. Don't just brush your front teeth. I'll check them later."
This is a reminder that is repeated almost every morning, but Yunmian insists on hearing the reminder before slowly going to the bathroom to wash up.
It's like a little NPC in a life-development game where you have to set a command to perform actions.
Yunmian stood on a small stool, holding the sink with one hand, and with the other hand holding a toothbrush, she opened her mouth and brushed her teeth seriously for three minutes while facing herself in the mirror.
The system responsible for timing: “…”
People in ancient times had never obeyed the emperor's orders so obediently. It took a full three minutes, not a second more or less.
When Yunmian came out after rubbing her face red with a face towel, Yun Jinyan had already prepared breakfast at the table.
"Dry your hands and come to eat." As Yun Jinyan spoke, she placed a small bowl of pumpkin porridge on the spot where Yun Mian usually sat.
Under her mother's glare, Yunmian boldly wiped her hands on her clothes, then shamelessly climbed onto the stool, knelt on the cushion and got closer to smell the sweet aroma of the pumpkin porridge.
"Mom, it smells so good~"
Before the food even entered his mouth, the child couldn't help but drool and asked, "Can we have pumpkin porridge every day from now on?"
After the pumpkin is peeled, cut into small pieces and cooked in the pot. First, use high heat to boil the pumpkin and rice until they are soft. Then turn to low heat. The pumpkin pieces will slowly turn into sticky pumpkin fibers. The golden fibers melt into the sticky and white rice that are also cooked. Add a few rock sugars to the pot and stir it slightly before serving. The sweet fragrance of the pumpkin is fully integrated into each soft rice. Even the porridge soup is sweet, yellow and exceptionally fragrant.
Yunmian scooped a small spoonful, blew it cool, and drank it in one gulp. The pumpkin and rice grains cooked until soft were more like the sweet and sticky paste he had eaten as a child. The sticky and sweet taste made the child so happy that he shook his head and hummed a song.
Twinkle, twinkle little star, one without an eye, two, four, six, seven, eight...
System: After several worlds in a row, the lyrics of my host's song are still as messy as ever. There is really no improvement at all.
Yun Jinyan supported her chin with her hand and smiled gently as she watched her daughter shaking her head while drinking porridge.
Yunmian licked her lips after swallowing it. The porridge on the corners of her mouth tasted sweet and she was reluctant to waste it at all.
"Mom, I can eat pumpkin porridge for every meal, even a hundred times!" The child, who was healed and satisfied by the pumpkin porridge, boasted while holding up a small spoon.
Yun Jinyan listened to it with amusement, and then said to the big eater who said he wanted to eat 100 meals of pumpkin porridge: "But if you eat 100 meals of pumpkin porridge, Mianmian won't be able to eat other things, such as seafood porridge? Purple rice porridge? Oatmeal porridge? Sweet taro porridge? Salted bone porridge? Small fried buns, crispy fried dumplings, fried dough sticks, wontons, soup dumplings, fried tomato eggs, fish-flavored pork shreds, crispy eggplant boxes..."
As the children's expressions became increasingly stunned and confused, Yun Jinyan directly staged another "dish reading".
After she finished speaking in one breath, she stopped and asked the silly little kid with her mouth slightly open with a smile: "Does Mianmian still want to drink a hundred bowls of pumpkin porridge now?"
Yunmian: “…”
The child's throat moved suspiciously, and he swallowed his saliva with a gulp, almost shaking his head into a rattle.
No more pumpkin porridge!
Only a fool would choose to eat a hundred meals of pumpkin porridge rather than having a hundred different breakfasts, lunches and dinners!
However, after shaking her head, Yun Mianmian blew on the pumpkin porridge in the spoon to cool it down, and then drank it up in one gulp. After the sweet and soft pumpkin porridge entered her stomach, she felt warm and comfortable all over.
Seeing that she was busy drinking the porridge, Yun Jinyan tore off a small piece of egg pancake and handed it to her daughter, reminding her: "Don't just drink the porridge. This egg pancake has just been made. Eat it while it's still hot. It will taste different when it cools down."
Yunmian took the small piece of egg pancake torn off by her mother, held it in front of her eyes, tilted her head and observed it for a moment, then bit off a big piece like a puppy and chewed it slowly in her cheeks.
The fragrant egg pancakes are delicious too!
The soft and fluffy pancakes do not require too much oil to be fried. The eggs are mixed with a little flour, oil, water, seasonings and chopped green onions, and then stirred into a uniform paste without particles in a clean container. Then preheat the electric baking pan or frying pan and brush it with a thin layer of oil. After the oil temperature at the bottom of the pan rises slightly, use a suitable spoon to scoop a spoonful of batter into it, and then turn the frying pan to turn the batter into a thin and golden egg pancake. It only takes less than a minute to make several soft and salty egg pancakes.
"Mom, can I share some with sister Yinyin?" The child, who was very satisfied with the meal, raised the omelet he had not finished eating, and couldn't wait to share his mother's amazing cooking skills with his new friends.
After all, when Sister Zhaozhao left, Mom lost a little friend who admired her. Mom’s number one fan, Yunmianmian, would never allow this to happen, so she quickly set her sights on the new little sister she had just met.
And try to use food to secretly invite the other party: This is what my mother made, how is it? Is it delicious? If it is delicious, praise her more. It doesn’t matter if you can’t praise her. People will be soft-hearted if you learn more!
Yun Jinyan didn't know her daughter's little thoughts. She glanced at the egg pancake in Yun Mian's hand, which looked like it had been gnawed by a dog, and shook her head helplessly: "Eat your meal obediently. When you come back from school, I will make you a few more egg pancakes to share slowly."
She didn't mind her daughter generously sharing the fruits of her labor.
Or rather, she actually welcomes it.
After all, the Wu family's life is not very good. Compared to helping Wu Wan, Yun Jinyan has always been soft-hearted and has always taken care of the children.
In the past, it was Wu Zhaozhao who played with Mianmian, and now it is Wu Yin who is about to play with Mianmian.
As for Wu Wan, most of the time, he was just a bonus thanks to the children.
Yun Jinyan understood too well the principle of gratitude and resentment, so most of the time she took care of the Wu family's children through Mianmian. At least when the children were with Mianmian, they could laugh happily instead of being suffocated by family and life at a young age.
"Thank you, Mom~" Yun Mian was satisfied after getting the answer, and continued to work hard as a lazy puppy.
Take a bite of the fragrant and soft omelet, then scoop a salty and crispy pickled radish into your mouth, chew it together with the omelet, and blow to cool the sweet pumpkin porridge in the bowl. After the whole process of eating, not only will your stomach be full, but your mood will also be given fragrant and cute little wings, fluttering around behind you.
This is one of the few days in Yunmian’s memory when she went to school alone.
There was no sister Zhaozhao holding hands, and no new acquaintance sister Yinyin was seen.
But Yunmian is not a sad child who feels that she has no friends. On the contrary, she is the bully of the entire kindergarten!
Even when sliding down the slide, everyone would tacitly let her slide first!
There is a lot of content in this world. The three children all have their own story lines in the early stages, and I don’t want to abandon any of them...
