Chapter 877 – [Storm’s Parenting Diary]

When I looked around Ji-hee’s house, there was no one there. Also, the father would have gone to work on Sundays, and the mother would have left the child behind and would be focusing on sending one more private academy.

So I had no choice but to make a phone call. I’m a bit reluctant, but I still call Ji-hee’s mother for Ji-hee.

-Hello?

“Yes. Hello, Jihee’s mother. I am Seobang Choi who lives next door.”

– Oh, how are you? But what about this time? Did our Ji-hee be indebted to you again?

“No, it’s nothing else, because today is Eden’s birthday.”

-Is Eden’s birthday today? Congratulations.

“Yeah, but can I feed Jihee and send her off?”

Of course, it’s not just rice. I will spend a lot of time playing and resting.

That’s all I can do for Jihee. Since they are not relatives and cannot be deeply involved in family affairs over there, they can show interest as neighbors.

– It’s okay to eat, but please don’t overeat. If it’s a birthday party dish, it’s high in calories, but eating too much of it will make you fat.

“Don’t worry, I’ll look after you and feed you in moderation.”

Moderately (by grandmother’s standards).

I didn’t lie. Because that’s just my standard.

By the way, are you already worried about your weight because of how much your child eats? It’s good for kids to eat well, and if you gain weight, you can go on a diet later. And it’s better to be fat than thin.

Looking at Jihee, she has a slightly skinny body. If I gain a little more weight here, I won’t gain enough weight to look ugly.

“Did you talk to Jihee’s mother?”

“Yes, I think the family over there is very strict.

“Because he doesn’t have that kind of side……”

Even Narat-nim cursed at me when I wasn’t there. Moreover, when it comes to talking about slandering someone else’s house, it was a regular subject of conversation among ajummas.

Besides, isn’t there too much to chew on? Fortunately, Ji-hee is playing with the kids, so the grown-ups won’t be able to hear them.

“Ji-hee’s mother, I heard you’re from a wealthy family?”

“Yes, I heard that you made money from land speculation. But having money doesn’t make you a conglomerate…”

“I guess that’s why they teach Ji-hee so severely. They want to raise her well and become a daughter-in-law of a conglomerate family.”

Rumors abound in speculation, but strangely accurate.

Humans are creatures full of desires. If he is an ordinary person, he wants to become rich, and if he is a rich person, he wants to become a chaebol. That kind of improvement isn’t bad, but going astray is worse than anything else.

Is he begging his son for not being able to become a conglomerate? Children are said to be the mirror of their parents, but that does not mean that children are the puppets of their parents.

There are too many parents in the world who don’t know the simplest reason. Even though in the end what you did to the child will come back the same.

“Normally, they play with each other, but the possibility of becoming the daughter-in-law of a conglomerate is slim.”

“There must be a chance if you go through the elite course, or is it as pretty as our Eden?”

“Will men line up to ask for marriage when Eden grows up?”

“I think Jaeyoung and Jaeho are still like that.”

“I know kids are pretty too.”

It wasn’t that Eden didn’t have girls among his friends, but the number of boys was overwhelming. Originally, women or men are crazy about being pretty and handsome. It goes without saying that Eden, a pretty girl, is popular with boys.

It’s not for nothing that people say that if you have a real daughter, you have to be careful of all the boys in the neighborhood.

By the way, the children who were close to 20 were excitedly running around, so the sound was very loud and noisy. I am worried that there will be complaints about the noise around me.

In case you don’t know, let’s put a little surprise…… Not too blatantly, but enough to reduce the sound by about half. It will be a bit noisy by then.

“Isn’t it time for lunch soon? The kids must be hungry since they played a lot.”

“I guess so”

I set the table first. The things on the rise now are not the finished dish, but the toppings that will go on the pizza.

We light the firewood to heat the oven and prepare the pizza to be baked. There are other dishes prepared, but I’ll post them a little later, and now it’s time to eat your own pizza.

Take out the dough you made earlier, cut it and spread it wide. Since the kids will eat it, it’s smaller than normal pizza. Even for a child who eats a lot, if he eats two, his stomach will be enough.

“Guys, aren’t you hungry? Let’s eat pizza!!!!”

“Wow!!!! It’s pizza!!!!!!”

“Pizza!!!!! Pizza!!!!!”

“Pizza please oh oh oh !!!!!”

Ahhh, the children’s offensive is coming!!!!!!

The children, who have become the personification of hunger by running around in full swing, rush in in a row. I seated them at a table with a piece of pizza dough in front of each of them.

It’s a noisy place, but with the help of Shion and the other ladies, I was able to calm the kids down somehow.

“Before eating the pizza, he will make the pizza he wants to eat. Do you have the ingredients for the pizza right in front of you? Put on the pizza you like and give it to the man, and he will bake the pizza in the oven over there.”

“Wow!!!! It looks delicious!!!!!!”

“If you’re done, raise your hand and tell the man that you’ve made it. Then let’s begin!!!!!”

And a stormy skirmish takes place.

The toppings for the pizza are various, but it is obvious that the kids eat them. Most of the children’s hands were ham types such as pepperoni and bacon.

I am still at an age where I don’t know the taste of mushrooms, mushrooms, or olives. Of course, it wasn’t that there weren’t kids who posted things like that because they were a bit older.

The kids’ pizza was the same even though it was slightly different. However, if there was anything unusual among them, it was Eden’s.

“Our Eden put the ingredients evenly”

“Don’t eat like this”

“You’re nice because you don’t eat unbalanced, my daughter”

Even though they are still children, do they know the taste of each ingredient without pursuing something stimulating? Taste is already an adult.

For reference, the most remaining of the prepared ingredients was green pepper. Originally, I used it……. And besides, there are many kids who don’t want to eat green peppers even if they die, perhaps because of Cjanggu’s influence.

“Mister!!!! It’s me!!!!!”

“By the way bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye!!!!”

“Yes, yes, everyone line up with what you made. I’ll bake it for you right away.”

I took the pizza from the kids and put it in the oven. Even though it was small because it was a home oven, it was possible to bake several pizzas at once because the pizza was small because it was for children.

Sizzling, the pizza baked in the oven was delicious as the cheese boiled. I take it out and put it back on the plate.

“It’s hot, so you have to cool it down and eat it?”

“Yes!!!!!!”

“Aren’t you done with that, Mister?”

“You need to learn a little more about that. Count to 20.”

“One two three four………”

“Hey!!!! Don’t cut in line!!!!”

“I didn’t cut in line!!!!!”

It’s quite noisy, but I was able to return the pizzas to the children quickly. The children enjoy the pizza with the toppings they choose in front of them.

Tomato sauce spilled out and there were children who asked here and there, but they wiped it off one by one. This is why I wondered if there was a lack of people…… I don’t know how to take care of children, but taking care of them is hard work.

There are party foods prepared in earnest, but we will eat them later. I have to adjust for today’s main, but if I fill my stomach in advance, I’m sure there will be something left.

“Did you enjoy everything?”

“Give me one more!!!!!”

“You look like you’re still hungry. But before that, should we blow out the candles on the birthday cake?”

“Kei-ku!!!!!!”

Eden sings a cake with her eyes shining. Originally, the main part of a birthday party is a candle-lighting event.

I bring a cake I’ve been working on for a while. It was specially prepared for today, but it was kept a secret from Eden, so this is the first time Eden sees it.

The cake I brought was apparently a whipped cream cake. Actually, Eden was going to make it with her favorite chocolate flavored cream, but it was decided that the bread part inside would be chocolate flavored.

The reason why it is a fresh cream cake is because the theme of this cake is Pororo and his friends. The background is Antarctica, so it would be better to use white as the color scheme.

“Wow!!!! It’s Porororo!!!!!”

“Pororo-chan is so cute!!!!!!”

“Wow!!!! The cake is so cool!!!!!!”

There are no fancy or many decorations, but next to the igloo made of marshmallows, sugar craft works of characters from Pororo are lined up. Thanks to that, the cake became a stage, so it was a shame to eat it.

In particular, Eden stretches out her hand when she sees a green dinosaur character, not Pororo. Maybe it’s because I saw Crong before.

“Krong is also Lee!!!!!!”

“Yes, yes. I’m going to light a candle, so can you come out for a second, Eden?”

I put 3 candles in. Just 3 candles on a pretty big cake. I wonder if the time will come when these candles will be 10 later, but someday it will come.

Anyway, I lit the candle I put in. By that point, the kids knew what to do and clapped and sang along to the beat.

“Happy birthday!!!! Happy birthday~!!!”

“Our beloved Eden!!!! Happy Birthday!!!!!”

“Waaaaa!!!!”

When the song ends, Eden goes after!!! And blew out the candles. Her blowing power was weak, so she had to blow a couple of times, but she was able to put out the candle safely.

Even the candles are blown out, so all that remains is to eat the cake. It’s quite large, so it’s enough for 20 kids to eat.

“Pororo!!! Give me a Pororo doll!!!!!”

“No!!!! Pororo is mine!!!!!”

“I want Eddie…”

“Pobyeeeee!!!!!”

Well, I knew it would be like this.

The children have been begging me with sad voices and eyes while watching the elaborately crafted sugar craft characters.

It’s a natural reaction. When I was young, I also wanted to have a flower-shaped sugar craft that had no taste buds on the cake.

It’s not a matter of taste. It is related to children’s innocence.

And as a skilled parenting master, I already expected this to happen. In particular, popular characters such as Pororo had so many wanted children that it was difficult to give them to just one.

“Don’t worry, we have another character doll. Instead, we’ll give you one per person. So, you have to choose what you want to receive and tell it.”

“Wow!!!!!!”

“Mister!!! I’m Pororo!!!!”

“I’m Crong!!!!”

“Poby please Poby!!!!!!”

If you give it to only one person, there will definitely be a fight and the party will be ruined. I’d rather work harder and make a few more than Eden ruining my birthday like that.

I made a few spares for each character, so you can choose your favorite character one by one. First, I sliced ​​the cake, handed out a piece to the children, and placed the desired character craft on top of it.

Of course, Eden chose Crong. It’s surprisingly popular because it’s second only to Pororo.

After distributing it to the children like that, the stormy snack time came. Eden eagerly eats the cake with a fork he’s not used to.

But wouldn’t it be uncomfortable, would it have been better to give them a spoon?

But Eden doesn’t care and eats well. There was cream on his lips and cake crumbs on his clothes, but he seemed to like it anyway.

“Oh my, where did you order that character cake?”

“I didn’t order it, I made it”

“Choi Seo-bang is also good at that kind of skill. If I order a cake for my child’s birthday later, will you accept it?”

“I would have paid several thousand won even if I only received the cost of materials…….. Would that be okay?”

“I think it’s much better than a bakery cake. I like it more than when my kid bought me an ice cream cake.”

I wouldn’t put so much effort into it unless it was made to order.

Most of the items sold in the bakery are made in the factory. Of course, these days, technology is good, so quality is good, but it’s not as good as making it by an individual.

If I put a price on the cake I made, the material cost alone would come out easily by tens of thousands of won, and the labor cost would come out twice as much.

Of course, making the cake itself wasn’t too difficult, but making the sugar crafts was a bit annoying. It’s fortunate that I didn’t create it myself, but rather that I made it by copying an existing character.

I’m secretly weak on that side… Thanks to that, even if I’m good at cooking, I have a weak side when it comes to plating. Even if it’s more than basic, it’s on a low level compared to my cooking skills.

In the first place, my major was home-cooked food. Have you ever seen them plate their home-cooked meals one by one and eat them?

“Mashita!!!!!!”

Eden enjoyed the cake with the Crong sugar doll next to him. Even though the outside is whipped cream, the bread inside is chocolate cake. Thanks to this, Eden, who likes chocolate, enjoyed the cake while being satisfied.

While watching this with satisfaction, I suddenly felt Shion stabbing my side and turned around.

“But if you eat like that now, don’t you leave behind the dishes you prepared?”

In addition to pizza and cake, I had birthday party dishes prepared separately. There are many menus that children will like……..Tteokbokki, pork cutlet, tteokgalbi, mini hot dogs, etc.

Shion was worried that he would throw away the things he had prepared, but it was a meaningless worry.

“Now, the kids will say they’re hungry after playing in the pool for about two hours.”

“Hey Ii”

Shion faintly screamed.

Don’t underestimate children’s stamina!!!! In the first place, humans are animals with great endurance!!!!!
