Tech Dominator Starts with Raising Kids-Chapter 291: Candy: Anticipation~ (’▿ ’)

Perhaps because of the cold weather and the wind, even though it’s Saturday, there are very few employees going in and out of the South Gate of Candy Science and Technology Park.

As expected, most employees are probably sleeping in their dorms.

Under the osmanthus tree, Mo Jingchun opened the car door, and the little guy jumped out of the car.

A gust of cold wind blew, causing the little guy to shiver.

The little head immediately shrunk back.

The tender little hands also retracted back into the sleeves.

Mo Jingchun took the little guy to the underground supermarket, picked up a box of milk, and bought some fruits.

Going to visit Xiang’Er’s grandma empty-handed felt a bit awkward after all.

"Brother, brother, Xiang’Er likes this."

"An Mu~Xi."

As Mo Jingchun and Candy entered Dormitory No. 3, carrying Anmuxi milk and fruits, they encountered Madam Li, who was cleaning in the hallway on the first floor.

That is, Xiang’Er’s grandmother.

Madam Li’s cleaning job was arranged by Mo Jingchun.

In the hallway, Madam Li was seriously mopping the floor.

She was very satisfied with this job.

She understood that Xiaochun arranged work for her for Xiang’Er’s sake.

Don’t look down on it as just a cleaning job, but it pays 5,000 yuan a month.

And it’s not particularly tiring either.

The most important thing is that at her age, finding a job is really not easy.

"Madam Li~"

The little guy’s voice echoed through the entire corridor.

"Ah, it’s Candy," Madam Li turned around with a kind smile.

"Madam Li," Mo Jingchun also smiled and followed up with a greeting.

"Madam Li, where’s Xiang’Er?" The little guy looked up at Madam Li.

"Xiang’Er? She’s in the dorm watching TV."

At this time, Candy tugged at her brother’s sleeve.

Hinting for him to quickly ask Madam Li how to make maltose candy.

"Madam Li, this is for Xiang’Er."

"This..."

"Oh come on, Madam Li, just take it. My brother wants to ask for your guidance."

Watching her brother and Madam Li exchange pleasantries without getting to the point, the little guy was anxious.

Ten minutes later, Mo Jingchun, holding Candy’s hand, followed Madam Li to the dormitory, where the quiet Xiang’Er and Guoguo were watching TV.

The little cutie was a bit scared at the sight of him.

Unexpectedly, the next second, courage triumphed over fear as the little guy pulled out two boxes of pure milk from somewhere, handing one to him and the other to Candy.

Mo Jingchun paused for a moment as he looked at the pure milk in his hand.

This milk, isn’t it issued by the kindergarten?

Maybe the little one couldn’t bear to drink it at school and brought it home.

Mo Jingchun had never seen Candy bring milk back.

Thinking of this, he discreetly placed the pure milk on the bench.

"Madam Li, it’s like this. Ever since Candy tasted your maltose candy, she keeps saying she wants more."

"That’s why I came, hoping to learn from you how to make maltose candy."

With a smile, Madam Li said, "Oh, that’s it."

"Making maltose candy is simple."

"Just buy some wheat and glutinous rice, and you’re good to go."

"The main thing is to have malt. Once you have malt, you mix the cooked glutinous rice with chopped malt..."

Mo Jingchun carefully noted down every step Madam Li explained.

After listening, he thought he could probably manage it.

The only difficulty was waiting some time for the malt to sprout.

Standing up, Mo Jingchun smiled and said, "Madam Li, I’ll go home and soak the wheat now."

"Once the malt sprouts, I’ll try making maltose candy."

"Guoguo, are you going to stay here and play with Xiang’Er, or go home with me?"

"Wait a moment," Madam Li called out, quickly running to the balcony, and then returned with a basin in her arms.

"I soaked some a few days ago. You can use this; I’ll soak some more wheat."

Seeing Madam Li holding the basin of malt, Mo Jingchun was surprised.

What a coincidence!

"I want to see, I want to see too."

Candy squirmed, trying to get a peek at the malt in the basin.

Smiling, Madam Li obliged Candy’s small request.

Looking at the green sprouts of wheat, Candy tugged at her brother’s sleeve, "Brother, let’s take it home and make maltose candy."

"Go ahead and take it."

"This bit of wheat isn’t worth much money."

Mo Jingchun scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, "Thank you, Madam Li."

In the elevator, Candy looked at the basin her brother was holding and volunteered:

"Brother, are you tired?"

"How about I hold it for you?"

Mo Jingchun glanced at the little guy, then at the basin in his hand.

"No need, it’s heavy."

If placed on the ground, the little one might be able to lift it, but that would be too dangerous.

If she threw out her back, that would be troublesome.

Urged by the little one, Mo Jingchun hurried back to the villa.

In the kitchen, following Madam Li’s instructions, Mo Jingchun used a rice cooker to cook two pounds of glutinous rice.

Just like cooking rice usually, but with a little more water to make the glutinous rice a bit softer.

The important point here is to add just enough water, but not too much.

Otherwise, the result wouldn’t be glutinous rice but a pot of glutinous rice porridge.

Half an hour later, Mo Jingchun poured the cooked glutinous rice into a big basin, spreading it out with chopsticks to let it cool quickly.

Beside him, the little guy patiently followed Mo Jingchun.

"Brother, shouldn’t we add malt now?"

"Not yet."

Mo Jingchun touched the temperature of the glutinous rice, which was still a bit hot.

Using this time, he poured the last batch of malt water from the soybean milk machine into another basin for later use.

After about ten minutes, Mo Jingchun felt the glutinous rice was now warm, so he poured the malt water into it and mixed it evenly with his hands.

Having done all this, Mo Jingchun covered the basin with preservative film.

Finally, he placed the basin in Candy’s foot bath basin.

Looking at Candy’s face basin, which he had just filled with steaming hot water, Mo Jingchun said with a smile, "Alright, by the afternoon, we can boil the maltose candy."

"Really? Brother," Candy asked with surprise, peeking in.

"It should be."

"Hmm...with such simple steps, there shouldn’t be any problem."

"We’ll just wait for tonight to eat maltose candy."

"Yay! That’s great."

"Guoguo can eat maltose candy again."

Just then, Feiyan walked in holding a delivery package. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

"Boss, your package."

"It’s been checked, and it’s safe."

When Mo Jingchun saw the package in Feiyan’s hands, he knew what had arrived.

Only the little one had no idea that the package contained her new toy.
