My Dad's Barbecue Is Delicious

Su Chen didn't recognize the family of three in front of him, but seeing his daughter run over immediately, he called out, "Panpan~"

Panpan's mother introduced herself, "Mr. Su, I'm Panpan's mom. Panpan and Tuantuan are classmates at kindergarten~ You even spoke on stage during the handicraft assignment a couple of days ago~ This is Panpan's dad."

"Oh~ I remember now, hello." Su Chen actually didn't recall their faces, but knowing they were classmates' parents, he naturally greeted them politely.

"Honey, this is the Mr. Su I told you about. His handicrafts are excellent. Tuantuan and Lele got first place. That peek-a-boo little rabbit was made by Tuantuan teaching Panpan."

In an instant, this remark closed the distance between the two parents.

Panpan's dad said with a smile, "So that was Mr. Su's work, it's really good. Mr. Su, you're very skillful. Are you guys also here to play this weekend?"

Su Chen nodded, "En, Tuantuan said it was fun here and wanted to come, so I brought them."

Tuantuan, holding Panpan's hand, happily told her dad, "Daddy~ Panpan said her mommy and daddy often bring her here, that's why I wanted to come~"

Su Chen smiled, "Is that so~ So it was little Panpan who discovered such a great place."

Praised by the handsome uncle, Panpan immediately beamed with joy.

Over there, Panpan's dad, familiar with the process, accompanied Su Chen to rent a barbecue grill.

Tuantuan had already started playing with Panpan.

Panpan was a girl of average looks. Her parents were both working professionals, and their appearances were ordinary. Panpan resembled her father, with a slightly squarish face. The little girl wore her hair in two pigtails, and she looked quite cute.

However, Panpan knew very well that she wasn't as pretty as Tuantuan. All the children in their class liked Tuantuan, but not everyone liked her.

Although the little girl was young, she had many thoughts. She saw that Tuantuan was good-looking and her mom was wealthy. Their family couldn't compare, so she always told Tuantuan that her daddy and mommy often took her out for barbecues and were super nice to her.

She hadn't expected Tuantuan's dad would bring them here today.

The only thing the little girl could use to compare with Tuantuan seemed to have dimmed.

She looked at Su Chen, who was busy over there, and pouted slightly.

"Tuantuan, my mommy and daddy often take me for barbecues, and my dad's cooking is amazing!" Panpan said with a bit of pride.

The innocent Tuantuan didn't realize this was a slightly boastful remark. She said with a smile, "Panpan, my daddy also cooks very deliciously~"

Panpan felt increasingly upset and couldn't help but raise her voice, "But your daddy definitely never made barbecue for you, and yours is definitely not as delicious as my daddy's!"

The little girl's voice got a bit louder, and the three parents nearby all heard it.

Panpan's parents looked at Su Chen apologetically, and Panpan's mom went to pull Panpan.

"Panpan, how can you talk to your classmate like that?"

Panpan pouted and turned her head away, displeased.

Seeing Panpan upset, Tuantuan's expression became slightly wronged. She walked over to Su Chen, looked up at him, and said softly, "Daddy, Tuantuan didn't say anything."

Su Chen patted his daughter's head and said gently, "En, Daddy knows. Our Tuantuan didn't bully anyone."

Upon hearing this, Panpan's dad said awkwardly, "Mr. Su, I'm sorry, my Panpan is still a bit immature."

Su Chen shook his head, his smile fading slightly.

He didn't speak further with Panpan's parents and focused on the barbecue.

Tuantuan and Lele sat obediently nearby, "helping," but their help was more like causing trouble. The meat in their hands became tools for their pretend play, and after a while, it was unusable.

Su Chen set up the grill. With his God of Cookery Skill, soon, a fragrant aroma wafted from the grill.

On weekends, the riverside was filled with parents bringing their children out to play, interspersed with a few young couples.

The children and young women were all drawn by the aroma.

"It smells so good~ Why is it all barbecue? Theirs smells so good~ I'm practically drooling~"

The children, following their instincts, ran directly to Su Chen's grill to watch, their little mouths smacking, looking utterly tempted.

Panpan, having been scolded by her mother, had red eyes and was still a bit angry, but upon smelling the aroma, she couldn't help but look over.

"Uncle, your barbecue smells amazing~ Can I have a little bit to try?" a bold little girl asked, drooling.

Su Chen smiled and nodded, "Of course, you can. Wait a moment, uncle will set aside some for these two little friends, and the rest is for you all to try~"

"Wow~ Uncle is so nice~"

Su Chen placed the grilled skewers in front of Tuantuan and Lele, letting them pick a few first, then distributed the rest to the children gathered around.

After the children finished eating, they all praised it highly.

"Wow~ Uncle's barbecue is so delicious~ Much better than my dad's~"

"Even better than the ones from restaurants, it's truly amazing~"

Hearing this, Tuantuan's face lit up again with a proud smile, "I told you, my daddy cooks very well~"

Lele didn't say anything, but he took a big bite of the skewer in his hand.

Mmm~ So fragrant~

Seeing everyone eating so happily, with their mouths full of oil, Panpan suddenly burst into tears.

"Mommy, I want some too~"

Panpan's mom handed her daughter the barbecue that Panpan's dad had grilled, but Panpan didn't even look at it. She pointed at Su Chen's grill and said, "I want the skewers that Tuantuan's daddy grilled~"

"I want to eat delicious food too~ Wuwuwu!"

"You child!" Panpan's mother said helplessly, and could only kick her husband.

Panpan's father sighed helplessly and awkwardly walked towards Su Chen.

"Mr. Su, I'm really sorry, could you... get two skewers for my Panpan too? That child is really..."

Su Chen smiled and pointed to his grill, saying, "Panpan's father, I'm really sorry, but my first round is all gone. How about you ask Tuantuan? She still has quite a few."

Panpan's father became even more embarrassed. He naturally understood what Su Chen meant.

Panpan had hurt Tuantuan's feelings earlier, so if they wanted to ask for food now, it depended on whether Tuantuan was willing to forgive them.

He had intended to leave, but upon hearing his daughter's heart-wrenching cries from over there, he could only brace himself and ask Tuantuan, "Tuantuan, Panpan did something wrong just now. Are you still willing to share some of your grilled skewers with Panpan? Uncle can bring you more later, and let your daddy grill them. Your daddy grills even better."

Upon hearing this, Tuantuan handed over the skewers in her hand almost without hesitation. "Of course, Uncle! You can take these for Panpan to eat. I'll wait for Daddy to grill more for me~"

Panpan's father took the skewers and said gratefully, "Tuantuan is a really great kid."

He took the skewers back. Su Chen glanced at Tuantuan and patted his daughter's little head with satisfaction.

"Tuantuan did an amazing job today, so Dad has decided to reward Tuantuan with more meat later, okay?"

As soon as Tuantuan heard about more meat, her eyes lit up immediately, and she nodded happily.

Panpan, having eaten the barbecue she'd been dreaming of, immediately stopped crying with joy.

However, Panpan's father seriously educated his daughter.

The little girl knew she had done wrong. She had been scolded by her mother earlier and still felt resentful, but when her father said that Tuantuan had given her the skewers, she couldn't help but feel self-reproach.

She had lost her temper with Tuantuan, but Tuantuan was still willing to share her skewers with her. Tuantuan was the good child; she herself was not good at all.

"Panpan, after eating the skewers, do you think you should go apologize to Tuantuan?"

Panpan immediately nodded and ran towards Tuantuan with the skewers.

"Tuantuan, I'm sorry. I was wrong."

"I shouldn't have lost my temper with you. It's just that I think you're so cute, prettier than me, and your family is richer than mine. You also said your daddy grills better meat than my daddy, and I felt sad..."

"But I was really wrong. I shouldn't have lost my temper with you."
