Chapter 376: Three hundred and seventy-six Parenting Entrepreneurship_1
The art of steaming buns is all about a thin skin and a hearty filling, a richness of flavor in the vegetarian mixtures, with a perfect balance of sweet and salty.
The meat filling is best when it’s a mix of thirty percent fat to seventy percent lean, resulting in a texture that’s tender, fragrant, and slightly sticky, rich but not greasy.
If there’s too much lean meat, it won’t be moist and fragrant enough.
But if there’s too much fat, it will feel overly greasy once you take a bite.
At the same time, attention must be paid to factors like the heat applied, water temperature, and seasoning.
A mistake in any one of these steps can cost you the best flavor.
With these thoughts in mind, Senior Level had quickly prepared all the fillings needed for the day.
He then set them aside to let the flavors meld.
The large dough he had just mixed, on the other hand, was placed in a big basin.
He covered it with cling film and waited for it to rise.
Once all the prep work was ready, Senior Level looked up at the clock.
Unbeknownst to him, two hours had whisked by, and soon it was time to pick up his daughter from school.
After washing his hands and tidying up in the shop,
and writing all the types of buns on the small chalkboard he’d bought,
he got into the car and slowly drove toward Little Sun Kindergarten.
As for the name of this old store being Qiwei Vegetarian,
it mainly refers to the seven kinds of breakfast items that the shop originally specialized in.
Although Senior Level planned on starting with steamed buns,
he had also prepared seven different kinds of buns with various fillings and flavors for sale in advance.
In doing so, he thought, he shouldn’t be accused of false advertising.
It wasn’t long before Senior Level arrived at the kindergarten ahead of everyone else to await the end of classes.
Having lived through the city’s overwhelming traffic congestion during peak hours in his past life, he came well-prepared.
Clearly, at this time, not as many people owned cars.
Other than stopping for traffic lights, Senior Level’s drive was exceptionally smooth.
In fact, he arrived at the kindergarten twenty minutes earlier than he had planned.
This filled him with great pleasure.
"Daddy!"
While Senior Level was leaning against his car, flipping through various parenting magazines, the pleasant sound of a bell began to ring.
Before he knew it, Tiantian came running over, her face alight with excitement, and plunged into his arms.
"Ahahaha, Tiantian my darling, Daddy’s here to pick you up from school!"
Senior Level smilingly watched his daughter, lightly exerting strength in his arms to lift her up.
He held her close to his chest, affectionately lowering his head to nuzzle her delicate little nose with his own.
Sitting on Senior Level’s arm, Tiantian felt the slight prickliness of his stubble against her chin.
She couldn’t help but giggle nonstop at her father’s affectionate gesture.
Seeing his daughter’s adorable demeanor made Senior Level’s smile even brighter.
"Let’s go, time to head home!"
He took Tiantian back to the car, thinking that his wife still had at least three or four hours left at work,
so he turned to his daughter and asked,
"Tiantian my darling, do you want to visit Daddy’s new store today?"
"Did Daddy open a new fruit store? Tiantian wants to go too!"
Tiantian tilted her head, seemingly remembering the delicious and tasty fruits that Senior Level had previously grown.
She could hardly stop her mouth from watering, eager and cute in her anticipation.
Senior Level just laughed heartily at her words, and then proceeded to perform what seemed like magic.
He kept pulling out a variety of fresh fruits from his pockets and handing them to his daughter.
"Here you are, all freshly picked. Just tell Dad whatever you like to eat.
I might not have everything, but I’ll definitely make sure there’s plenty of fruit."
"Wow~ Can you really do magic, Dad? That’s so amazing!"
Seeing a pile of all sorts of fresh fruits appear in the blink of an eye.
Tangtang’s adorable big eyes sparkled with admiration as she spoke to Senior Level.
His mood instantly brightened upon hearing her words.
"Take your time eating, honey. Dad’s not opening a fruit shop this time, but a restaurant.
I’ll make lots of new and delicious foods for Tangtang every day.
I believe once you see it, darling, you’ll definitely love this new restaurant."
As soon as Tangtang heard she could try her dad’s cooking every day,
she couldn’t help but lick her lips with her little pink tongue, a happy expression on her face.
"Long live Daddy, Tangtang loves you the most!"
Hearing this, Senior Level’s smile grew even wider.
Then he stepped on the gas, and the brand-new Alfa Romeo
accelerated within half a second, shooting out like a wild horse breaking free.
Before long, the father and daughter pair returned to Qiwei Vegetarian, with Senior Level taking out the keys to open the door.
He led his daughter into the restaurant and found her the most comfortable spot.
Senior Level then turned on the TV, tuning it to her favorite cartoon channel.
Watching his daughter sitting cozily on the couch, engrossed in the television, Senior Level smiled gently, then got back to his business of making buns.
Once all the hustle and bustle were over, the buns in the steamer were pretty much ready.
Senior Level took one, tore it in half, handed half to his daughter, and took a bite himself to taste.
Savoring the rich juices and the distinct layers of filling melting between his lips and teeth,
a hint of satisfaction appeared on his face.
At this point, Tangtang was sitting on her dad’s lap,
her round little face full of bliss and contentment.
Senior Level pulled out a napkin and carefully wiped the grease from the corners of her mouth.
He then fetched a piece of red paper and a calligraphy brush he’d bought on the way back from Little Sun Kindergarten.
Standing in front of the table, bending low, he quickly wrote two lines of bold characters on the red paper.
"Grand opening today—all buns free to taste, limit three per person.
Welcome, dear fellow townsfolk, uncles and aunts, sisters and girls, to support us."
Looking at his own masterpiece, Senior Level couldn’t help nodding in approval.
His calligraphy had always been excellent, especially after several enhancements by the tricky system.
Now he had elevated it to a senior level of calligraphy.
Not to mention competing and winning, even if written casually, even to those who knew nothing about calligraphy,
it would still appear very beautiful to them. It’s just that he didn’t get many opportunities to practice it.
Usually, before opening a new shop, Senior Level would look for famed calligraphers to write inscriptions in advance.
Mainly for the renown of the artist and the marketing appeal it could bring.
Though his own calligraphy was no less inferior to others,
Senior Level was always unknown in this field, so naturally, there was no talk of any advertising effect.
