Chapter 94 - Zoo (1)
The principal wanted to push all the responsibilities onto the vice principal and turn over to a new page, but none of the parents would let that happen.
As the person in charge of the kindergarten, how would it be possible that he had no idea what was going on under his nose? Especially when it came to something as important as the affairs of the kitchen. All in all, none of the parents believed him.
“Please let us know if you have some suggestions. We are not happy to find out about this kind of issue either. The most important thing right now is not to point fingers but to figure out a solution so the children will be able to have clean and healthy meals,” said the manager as if she could really relate.
“We will need some time to talk it over first,” said Grandma Wu, seemingly now the leader of the group.
This was the only kindergarten within the district. The other ones were all sort of far. Besides, if the one under their nose could let this happen, who was to say that nothing similar would happen at another kindergarten? But the principal and the kitchen workers needed to be swapped out. And the vice principal as well.
“What say we talk it through when the other parents show up to pick up the kids in the evening?” said Shu Yan out of the blue from where she was standing. She purposefully did not lower her voice. When the manager and principal heard her, they both turned pale.
Tens of parents were already a handful. The issue would only escalate if there were 50 ~ 60 parents. It might even attract media attention and for sure would become a black mark for the top properties of City Nan. By then, not only the principal, even the property management would be in trouble.
“I think you can represent the rest of the parents in this matter. We should resolve this issue as soon as possible. We wouldn’t want to wait on matters with the kids, right?” The property manager smiled and poured tea for all the parents. A young girl walked over to her and whispered something in her ears. The property manager smiled and said, “You haven’t eaten yet, right? I’ll have someone order lunch for us. Why don’t we have some food and then talk this through?”
“We have no appetite right now.” What lunch? Their kids at the kindergarten haven’t even eaten yet.
The parents were anxious. They didn’t care about being a little bit hungry. They were more worried that their babies were hungry.
“Oh, don’t worry. I have already arranged for them to prepare a different meal at the kindergarten. All the ingredients were bought fresh from the market. There was pork belly plus a spareribs and seaweed soup. If you are still worried, you are welcome to go take a look right now,” said the property manager right away.
There was, of course, no need to go back to look right now. It has been a while since they have taken off from the kindergarten. They probably had already sent people over to take care of the situation over there. There was no way they would see any signs of the sliced potatoes or sliced carrots, not to mention the pork neck. All the flies were probably all dead by now. It wasn’t that the school employees couldn’t help it before; they just never tried before. As long as they had paid it some attention, none of those issues that the parents and grandparents had witnessed earlier should exist.
“What is the point of arranging that now? We don’t even know how long our kids have been having these unhygienic meals. These were all issues with the management. Things like these never should have happened in the first place. Aiyo. My head hurt from being so angry,” complained one of the grandmothers.
They then spent 1 ~ 2 hours discussing the issues. The parents demanded the principal and vice principal be replaced, as well as the cooks in the kitchen. The new cook would be interviewed by them and the school must hire two more kitchen helpers. Grandma Wu suggested that they hire someone that they knew, so they could also double as supervisors.
Principal Lin got progressively more upset as they were talking. Right when he was about to jump up and say something, he was pulled back by the property manager, who smiled and said, “I don’t have enough authority to make these decisions, but I will for sure reflect them quickly to my superiors and give you an answer as soon as possible.”
“I don’t want to hear ‘as soon as possible’, just give me an exact time.” Shu Yan frowned and wouldn’t let them keep pushing this issue out. That wasn’t what she wanted to see. “I am going to inform the other parents later. If you don’t provide us with a solution by tomorrow, we will come again together.”
“Exactly. If that’s not do-able, we all have our relatives. We won’t let you off the hook easily,” said Grandma Wu.
