185 Parent-child Activity
In fact, after Reginald’s appearance, Leon was more worried than Vivian. He was worried that the mother he had found with great difficulty would be snatched away, and he would be powerless to resist.
Therefore, when a good opportunity appeared in front of him some time ago, Leon seized it without hesitation, even if he had to pay the price of being seriously injured.
After Vivian returned to S City, she began to busy herself with the jewelry store’s opening, while Leon also welcomed his final exams.
Tantorn High School had a tradition of organizing a parent-child activity after the final exams and before the holidays every year. However, the format was varied and it was not always the same.
This activity was the most popular among poor students. After all, there was a good parent-child interaction before the results were out, which could effectively avoid the end of being beaten up.
For this parent-child activity, parents and children would bring home-cooked food and set up a stall on the school grounds.
The exams were held on Thursday and Friday, while the activities for the second-year students were scheduled for Saturday afternoon. To keep things fresh, Vivian and Leon only started in the morning.
It was Vivian’s first time participating in a parent-child activity in school, so she was very attentive. In order to distinguish herself from others, she chose to make other country’s primary school food, such as candied haws, Chinese fried dumplings, and braised chicken legs.
It was the first time for both Vivian and Leon to attend, so they were a little excited. Vivian had only seen them share photos of parent-child food gatherings on her friend’s twitter, so it was very novel to Vivian.
The venue was divided according to class. The mother and son got up early because of their excitement. After making food, they immediately went to the school’s event location. In the end, they chose three stalls in the middle. After a long time, Simon and his mother arrived.
The six desserts prepared by Simon’s family were all local food. Frank arrived late with the spectacled man again just as the event was about to start.
Frank and the spectacled man spread the food directly on the ground and divided them into different categories. These were all snacks made by the housekeeper and looked very exquisite.
The three people’s stalls were connected.
Frank put some of each food in disposable tableware and walked to the middle of Leon’s and Simon’s stalls, placing a plate each. “Try it, everyone. Although my nanny’s skills are not as good as Aunt Julia’s, it still tastes good.”
Frank had been to Simon’s house a few times, so he was very familiar with Julia.
Seeing this, Julia quickly filled up some of each dessert and handed it to Frank with a smile. She said humbly, “I just made it randomly. If you like it, eat more.”
Frank immediately took them and couldn’t wait to eat a few of them. However, he didn’t finish them all and left a small half for his temporary father. Besides, he couldn’t ruin his weight loss for anything.
Julia continued to take out the food and set it on the plate. It took a long time because she had made a lot of food, and Simon helped her.
After everything was done, Julia looked to the side and saw Vivian sitting on the mat and taking pictures with her camera.
Julia thought for a moment and wiped her hand on her pants. Then, she took out a clean lunch box and filled it with food. She also took out two bottles of jam she made from another bag.
The event had just started, and the students had yet to move around. Julia brought Simon to Leon’s stall and greeted him with a smile, “Hello, Leon’s mother.”
Vivian put down her camera when she heard the voice. She turned to Julia and smiled back at her. “Hello, Simon’s mother.”
Julia put the food on the stall and said gently, “Leon’s mother, Simon said you were kind enough to let him attend the martial arts class with Leon every night. I’m really grateful to you.”
“This is the cranberry jam and Apple jam I made at home. It’s not worth much, but it tastes good. It’s good for bread or water.”
Vivian took it and thanked her. She repeated what she had said to Simon before to persuade him to go to martial arts class, and then continued, “You’re too kind. I really like Simon. He’s calm and careful in his work.”
Thinking of her purpose today, Vivian started eating the dessert right in front of Julia. Vivian was a picky eater, but her eyes lit up when she ate the dessert.
At this moment, when he looked at the most common desserts in Simon’s stall, she suddenly realized why they dared to set them up like this. They were planning to beat others in terms of taste!
Vivian gave Julia a thumbs-up. “This is delicious. You can set up a stall outside. Business will be good.”
