At 5 p.m. sharp, it was finally time to leave! Since I didn't live at the daycare, Lotta thoughtfully reminded me it was time to leave. She stayed behind to help the children wash their hands and prepare for dinner. Then, adorable Maggie waved to me and said in a sweet voice, "Goodbye, Teacher Sui Sui! We'll be here tomorrow!" Looking at these innocent children, my heart was filled with warmth and emotion.

Every child in the nursery is brought here by their guardian. Therefore, they spend the entire day in the nursery, receiving care and instruction from the teachers. Here, the children not only learn knowledge but also feel the warmth and care of home. Spending every day with these adorable little ones brings me joy and fulfillment. While the work can be arduous at times, seeing the children's smiles makes all the fatigue melt away.

"Goodbye, my dearest ones! Don't forget what the teacher told you! Tomorrow morning, I will be here on time to spend a wonderful time with you all."

The children responded one after another: "Okay, Teacher Sui Sui! We will wait for you obediently!" Their voices were full of anticipation and joy, and they seemed to be eager to welcome the arrival of the new day.

As I turned and left, a warm feeling welled up in my heart. I knew that these lovely children would be the sunshine in my future life. Tomorrow would be another day full of hope and joy.

After leaving the kindergarten and reaching the street entrance, I paused and glanced at the balance displayed on my laptop. It was still a long month until my next paycheck, but I only had a paltry 400-odd LightCoins left in my account. This was barely enough to even take public transportation, let alone other luxurious options.

With a sigh of resignation, I decided to save some money and walk home. This way, I could save money and get some exercise, potentially helping me lose weight. After all, walking is a good form of exercise! While it might take more time and energy, it would at least allow me to hold on until next paycheck despite my tight budget.

So, with resolute steps, I began the seemingly long journey home. Admiring the scenery along the way, feeling the refreshing breeze on my face, my mood gradually brightened. Perhaps this is what life's little blessings are all about? Even in the face of adversity, we can still find beauty and joy in the ordinary, everyday things.

After half an hour, I finally arrived home. I unlocked the door with my fingerprint, changed into slippers, and immediately collapsed onto the living room sofa. "Finally home," I exclaimed, contemplating the rest of the day. Although the salary was meager, I still loved this job because the innocence and laughter of children always brought me endless joy.

Just as I was daydreaming, the doorbell rang. Puzzled, I walked to the door and saw a figure through the peephole. It was Wei'er. I opened the door and invited her in. "Sui Sui, today is an important day in your life—your first day at work! I wonder how you feel right now? To celebrate this special moment, I bought some fresh ingredients and plan to celebrate with you. Of course, you'll have to rely on your skillful hands to cook, haha!"

"Haha, of course there's no problem! Cooking is something that is so easy for this chef! But you can sit down and have a good rest first~ After all, I just got home, so it's not too late to rest for a while before cooking!" I answered Wei'er while laughing, turned around and walked back to the sofa in the living room, and half-lay down comfortably.

At this time, Wei'er asked curiously: "Hey, didn't you get off work at five o'clock? Why are you back home at almost six o'clock now?" Her big watery eyes stared at me, as if trying to find the answer from my face.

"I want to lose weight, right? The kindergarten is only a little over half an hour away, so I've decided to walk to and from work. Now I know the way," I said confidently. "Losing weight is a process, and you need a scientific and rational approach. And in your case, exercise alone won't solve the problem. It's mainly because your hormone levels are too high," Weier said to me seriously. She seemed quite knowledgeable about this, which surprised me.

"Don't look at me like that! I come from a medical family! Although I didn't study medicine, it doesn't mean that I don't know medicine!" Wei'er said a little angrily. Her eyes revealed a kind of confidence and pride, as if to prove her strength to the other party. After all, her family background has given her a certain foundation of medical knowledge, which makes her full of confidence in her abilities. Wei'er thought to herself: Even if I haven't received orthodox medical education, with the experience and wisdom passed down by my family, it should be enough to deal with some common diseases, right? Thinking of this, she felt more confident.

After resting for about ten minutes, I got up and went to the kitchen to start preparing today's dinner.

"Weier, why did you buy Cuckoo's Feet again?" As soon as I walked into the kitchen, I saw the Cuckoo's Feet on the stove and asked casually.

"Yes, I think it tastes good!" Wei'er replied with a smile.

I wasn't surprised that Wei'er liked cuckoo's feet. After all, cuckoo's feet are delicious and nutritious, making them a truly delicious delicacy. However, cooking them the same way over and over again can get a bit monotonous. So, I had an idea and decided to try a different way to prepare cuckoo's feet for Wei'er.

"Okay, today I'll make you a different Cuckoo's Foot!" I said as I picked up the Cuckoo's Foot and started to process it.

Forty minutes later, the enticingly fragrant garlic chicken feet, dry-pot potatoes, and shredded cabbage were finally ready. The aroma made my mouth water, but seeing Wei'er still fiddling with her laptop, I couldn't help but urge her, "Wei'er, stop playing! Come and eat! The food will get cold before you eat."

Hearing what I said, Wei'er raised her head and smiled widely: "Okay, I'll be there right away!" As she said that, she put down the laptop in her hand and trotted over to sit down.

As soon as she sat down, Wei'er couldn't wait to pick up a chicken foot and put it in her mouth. While chewing, she said incoherently: "Sui Sui, the dishes you cooked tonight are even more fragrant. They are simply delicious!"

I was amused by her expression and felt very happy. After all, it is a very fulfilling thing for me to be recognized by my friends.

At this moment, Wei'er suddenly seemed to remember something, took out her laptop and said, "Oh right, I just shot a video and wanted to share these delicious dishes with everyone. However, I didn't capture your face in the video. Can you upload it to social media? Last time I posted the food you made, it got a lot more views!"

I nodded and replied with a smile, "Of course! As long as you like it." Actually, I didn't care if I was photographed. I cared more about whether Wei'er was happy. Besides, if this way I could let more people know about the food I cook, that would be a good thing too.
