Chapter 249 Reciprocity

On the side, Kong Mingxue, who had just finished talking about his inner thoughts, saw Jiang Fubao eating so deliciously that his stomach growled with hunger.

I'm so drooling.

He took out half an ounce of silver from his purse and put it on the table.

Get ready to order some food.

But he hasn't opened his mouth to speak yet.

Zhang Jinlan, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, grabbed the silver and stuffed it back to him.

"From now on, you are not allowed to pay when you eat at my place. If you pay again, I will not allow you to come. Do you understand? Four silver coins, grill thirty meat skewers and ten vegetarian skewers, with lots of chili and cumin, no problem if you like spicy food.

Pingmei, make three meat cakes, with more meat and less noodles, Mingxue likes to eat meat. Yanzi, make a bowl of sugar soup for each of the three kids, with more watermelon, Tongmu in my family likes to eat watermelon. Yingqiu, make three bowls of cold noodles, with more vinegar to whet the appetite. Is that enough? If you are still not full after eating, grandma will give you more."

Zhang Jinlan said with a smile.

The grandson finally has two playmates. These two kids look nice and come from a nice family.

It’s better to just be friends.

How can you bring your friends over for dinner and ask them to pay?

Besides, Shopkeeper Kong had given their family a full 100 taels of silver before. Although it was the money to buy the recipe, a recipe shouldn't be that expensive.

There is also Bujiu's grandfather, who is the headmaster. She didn't know what a headmaster is before, but after she found out, she had to please Bujiu.

If Tongmu gets along well with him, he will have more options in the future.

From ancient times to the present, parents' ideas are the same.

Even if Zhang Jinlan is stingy, she will become generous because of her grandson.

Not only does Zhang Jinlan not accept their money now,

I will not accept it in the future.

After saying this, Kong Mingxue had no choice but to compromise.

Meng Bujiu has always been thick-skinned and is used to eating and drinking for free.

It's nothing more than learning from Kong Ming and then changing to learning from Jiang Tongmu.

"That's enough, thank you grandma, you are so kind to me."

"Grandma, look at me. I'm so hungry and thin. My stomach has shrunk. This is enough for me. I have a small stomach."

The two of them called her grandma more and more frequently, making Jiang Tongmu feel jealous.

Especially Kong Ming's philosophy.

Deliberately speaking in a pinched voice.

Jiang Fubao got goosebumps when she heard this, and a sentence suddenly popped into her mind.

【I am eighteen years old~】

Tsk~

Jiang Fubao vomited because of fucking.

She shifted her gaze and stopped looking at Kong Mingxue and looked at her handsome father.

As expected, my appetite returned instantly.

The weather is hot.

The three of them sat on chairs, holding a bowl of icy sweet rice cake, and enjoyed it so much.

The sweet and soft mung bean soup, paired with crispy watermelon and sticky taro balls, will instantly relieve the heat in your body after you finish a bowl.

Finished eating the sugar water.

Cold noodles and meat cakes are also ready.

Slurp the noodles and take a bite of the crispy meat cake.

The two flavors mixed in my mouth.

Sweet, sour, salty, crispy, spicy, and soft, it has all kinds of flavors, and it’s so delicious that it makes me want to cry.

The three of them ate in silence.

The yard was filled with chewing sounds.

As the saying goes, the little brats eat up their father's wealth.

Three teenagers in their teens can eat a lot.

After eating cold noodles and meat cakes and barbecue, he even had lunch with the Jiang family.

Shredded pork vegetarian noodles.

Although it is vegetarian noodles, it contains meat and vegetables and tastes particularly delicious.

The three of them had a big bowl.

Then he started burping.

Jiang Fubao was stunned.

The food for the three of them combined was enough for her to eat for half a month.

Fortunately, she came here, otherwise when her brothers grow up, the family will be bankrupted by them.

"Grandma, we're leaving. Come back tomorrow morning~"

Kong Mingxue and Meng Bujiu helped wash the dishes before leaving.

They greeted each other politely.

Walked out.

Zhang Jinlan watched them leave for quite a while.

"I'm going to go back first. Do you want to come to my house and play for a while?"

Kong Mingxue and Meng Bujiu walked to the intersection. He covered his bloated stomach, burped, and asked.

"No, I'm always running around. My grandfather keeps asking me all kinds of questions. It's so annoying. Let's meet at Jiang's Snack Shop tomorrow morning."

Meng Bujiu waved his hand, turned around and prepared to leave.

"Can't you be a little later? I haven't slept at all since I played with you all day. What a bad friend, what a bad friend——"

Kong Mingxue's eyes were full of resentment.

"You know my grandfather. He grabbed me before dawn and said that scholars have to endure hardships. What can I do? Oh, I won't say anymore. I'm leaving now."

After saying this, Meng Bujiu turned his head and strode away.

After returning home, Kong Mingxue collapsed on the rosewood recliner, feeling so comfortable that he was fuming.

"Hey, my dear, you're back. How are you doing in school? Are you full? You look thin... um, you've gained a lot of weight. Has the food in your school gotten better? Or has the cook been replaced by a pig farmer? How come you've gained so much weight?"

Wan Xian wanted to say a few words of concern to her son, but when she saw that Kong Mingxue was almost as fat as a pig, she was too embarrassed to say that he had lost weight.

The heartache in her eyes suddenly disappeared.

Instead, there was a look of curiosity.

"No, burp~ No, I turned on the stove, burp~."

Kong Ming learned how to burp rhythmically, so that his speech became intermittent.

"What do you mean by open the stove? Your school is so strict, how can the cook open the stove for you? Why don't I believe it? You won't sneak out of the school and eat secretly, right?"

Wan Xian's head tilted slightly to the left, but her eyes turned to the right, looking at him sideways.

"No, do you still remember my good friend? His family runs a snack shop in the town, his name is Jiang Tongmu. His family is very nice to me. Every time they send food to Jiang Tongmu, they also bring some for me and Meng Bujiu.

We had extra meals every day, so of course we gained some weight, but Uncle Jiang was very generous, giving each of us two barbecued meat buns, which tasted delicious, and he didn’t charge us for it.”

Kong Mingxue touched his belly and felt so comfortable.

"How can you eat other people's food for free? As a human being, you should learn to be polite and reciprocate. Bring Tongmu here tomorrow, and call Bujiu as well. Mother will set the table at home and give you a good meal."

Wan Xian smiled gently. Although she was several years older than Wan Zhen, she looked a whole generation younger than Wan Zhen.

"Okay, tomorrow morning Bujiu and I have to go to Jiang's Snack Shop. When we leave, I'll bring Tongmu with me. Oh, no, I remember that Tongmu has to go back to the village. Mom, let's do it the day after tomorrow. When we go back to school the day after tomorrow, I'll bring him back. It's just right that the three of us can go back to school together."

Kong Mingxue was about to agree when he remembered that Jiang Tongmu would not be in town tomorrow.

He couldn't go to Jiangjia Village and bring Jiang Tongmu over.

"That's fine. Then the day after tomorrow at noon, Mom will prepare it. You just need to eat."

After Wan Xian finished speaking, she was already thinking about what dishes to prepare.

"What's going on? What are you two talking about?"

Kong Yuanbao knew that his son was having a day off today.

So I came back early.
