Cooking, for Pei Yang, is as essential as sleeping and eating.

If someone were to say he couldn’t cook, couldn’t enter the kitchen, that’s when he’d really start to worry.

Like Pei Huai just said, handing over the task of cooking to Pei Yang would only make him happy.

As they chatted, they had already brought all the dishes to the table.

During the meal, Pei Yang didn’t idle.

He would either praise the eight-treasure porridge for being well-cooked or the buns for being perfectly steamed, or the side dishes for their unique flavor.

All the compliments were said by him alone, and the others didn’t utter a word, simply burying their heads in their food.

After the meal, Jiang Ran looked at the heavy snow outside, a bit worried.

In such weather, should Pei Jing still be sent to kindergarten?

The main issue is that there are no air conditioners in the kindergarten classrooms at this time, and it’s quite cold inside.

For safety reasons, it’s not possible to light a stove in the kindergarten classrooms either.

After all, little children, just a few years old, have no concept of safety.

When they’re running around and playing, they can’t be mindful of so much.

If there really were a stove, if someone accidentally touched it, the consequences would be unimaginable.

So even though it’s a bit colder, stoves are not allowed.

Before the snow, it was fine because the children’s energy was high, and after playing, they didn’t feel too cold.

But now, with such heavy snow, how cold must it be inside the classroom?

Just thinking about it made Jiang Ran frown.

She isn’t the type to spoil her child.

If Pei Jing were in primary school, no matter the weather, he would still have to attend classes.

But now, as he’s only in kindergarten, in such extremely harsh weather, it’s possible for him not to go.

Jiang Ran was still looking at the snowstorm, pondering these things, when the phone suddenly rang.

Why was there a call so early in the morning?

Jiang Ran found it strange but still went to the phone and picked up the receiver.

After answering, she heard the voice of Pei Jing’s kindergarten teacher.

It turned out the reason the kindergarten teacher called was very simple: to inform her that from today, kindergarten would start its winter break.

Yes, it’s winter break.

Though it’s only November, that doesn’t matter.

In this area, it’s customary that after the first snowfall, kindergartens go on break and resume when spring arrives the next year.

Previously, Jiang Ran hadn’t specifically inquired about when winter break starts, so she was surprised by this arrangement.

This actually works out quite well.

At least the child won’t have to endure the cold.

After finishing the main topic, Jiang Ran waved her hand, calling Pei Jing over, and handed him the receiver.

"Little Jing, kindergarten will be on holiday starting today. Say goodbye to your teacher. You’ll only see her again when school starts in spring next year!"

Holding the receiver, Pei Jing spoke in his sweet, childlike voice.

"Goodbye, teacher! I’ll miss you."

A good-looking, polite, sweet-talking child is always liked wherever they go.

So, Pei Jing’s teachers all liked him very much too.

"Little Jing, be good at home. When it gets warm in spring, you can see your teacher again. The teacher is looking forward to seeing you!"

"I’m looking forward to seeing the teacher too."

"Goodbye, Little Jing."

"Goodbye, teacher!"

Watching Pei Jing put the receiver back on the phone, Jiang Ran reached out and patted his head.

"You don’t have to go to kindergarten today. What does Little Jing want to do?"
