"You're a little man, so what's a little spicy?"
Jia Dongsheng continued to deceive: "What's more, you just ate the fish. Tell me if your uncle lied to you. Doesn't it smell good?"
"It smells so good, but... it's too spicy."
Banggeng looked at the pot of red boiled fish, his mouth watering, but thinking about how spicy it was, he was a little afraid to eat it. He hesitated and couldn't move forward or backward.
"Don't worry, when you eat fish, eat a few more mouthfuls of rice, and you will gradually find it more and more delicious."
As he spoke, Jia Dongsheng began to pick up a few pieces of fish and some vegetables for Banggeng and put them in his bowl: "Eat."
"Um."
Banggeng has become a foodie. Looking at the fish in the bowl, he instantly forgot the spicy taste and the numb feeling in his mouth, and started eating with big mouthfuls.
He was panting heavily while eating, but he felt happier and happier as he ate.
"Not bad, not bad."
Jia Dongsheng nodded with a teachable look, then looked at Xiaodang, who was eating rabbit meat. When he noticed Jia Dongsheng looking at him, the rabbit meat in his mouth dropped onto the table with a "click".
"Uncle... Uncle, I don't want to eat fish."
Xiaodang's face turned pale with fear. There was nothing she could do. Banggeng was about to cry because of the spiciness. She saw the whole process and didn't want to eat fish at all.
"No, no, why would we eat fish? That's for your brother. Let's eat braised pork."
Jia Dongsheng gave Banggeng and Xiaodang completely two different educations. As the old saying goes, raise sons in poverty and daughters in wealth.
Girls should be pampered more.
So, when he heard that Xiaodang was afraid of spicy food and didn't want to eat boiled fish, Jia Dongsheng didn't force him. He directly picked up a large piece of braised pork and put it in Xiaodang's bowl, then touched Xiaodang's little head and said, "Eat it."
"Well, thank you, second uncle." Xiaodang smiled happily, then lowered his head and started eating meat.
"Dongsheng, I see why you like Xiaodang so much. Banggeng is also your nephew, why are you so strict with him?"
Jia Zhang couldn't bear to watch this scene. These days, Jia Dongsheng had completely different attitudes towards Banggeng and Xiaodang, which made her very puzzled. She felt even more distressed that he was so harsh towards Banggeng.
There is no way. The idea of favoring boys over girls is too serious, and I can't stand being too harsh on Bang Geng.
It’s just that Jia Dongsheng is her eldest son. As the saying goes, eldest son and eldest grandson, Jia Zhangshi has to treat them equally.
"Mom, there's nothing we can do about it. Banggeng is a boy after all."
Jia Dongsheng said as a matter of course: "Mom, just like you said, Xiaodang will definitely get married when she grows up, and what about Banggeng?"
"Banggeng is the male offspring of our Jia family. When he grows up, he will bring honor to our Jia family. We are counting on Banggeng's success."
"As the saying goes, a strict father produces an able son. If I weren't stricter, you and your sister-in-law would have spoiled Bang Geng so much, and he would have been spoiled sooner or later."
"My eldest brother only has this one son, and I can't let you teach him the wrong way. I must raise Banggeng into a talented person."
These words left Jia Zhang speechless. This matter concerned the Jia family's reputation, so what else could she say?
Even in Jia Zhang's heart, she had begun to reflect on whether she had been too pampered to Bang Geng before. After thinking about it, she felt that it was true.
Qin Huairu's reaction was very real.
Jia Dongsheng would definitely not harm Bang Geng, and Jia Dongsheng is so capable, so Jia Dongsheng's education must be better than hers, so what else can she say?
Just leave Banggeng's education entirely to Jia Dongsheng, it's that simple.
So, Jia Dongsheng had to talk and she had to eat. While eating, she kept muttering in her heart: "This braised pork is so delicious. It would be great if I could eat braised pork every day."
"Second Uncle, you are right. From now on, leave the Jia family to me."
Banggeng took a sip of cold water to suppress the numbness in his mouth, patted his chest and said, "I am the second man in our family. In the future, I will have to take care of grandma, mom, second uncle, and sister."
"Mom, sister-in-law, look how sensible Banggeng is."
Jia Dongsheng smiled. This kid was worthy of all his teaching and indoctrination over the past few days. There was so much positive energy in his words.
"Okay, Bang Geng, you have to remember what I said today. I won't be polite to you in the future."
Jia Dongsheng gave Banggeng a shot of vaccination, then said, "By the way, sister-in-law, is Banggeng going to have his final exams?"
Turning around, Jia Dongsheng looked at Qin Huairu.
"Well, it's the end of June now. I think the final exams are on July 12th."
Qin Huairu thought about it and responded with some uncertainty.
"Well, Bang Geng, how do you feel about your academic performance? What's your ranking in the class?"
Speaking of which, in his previous life, Jia Dongsheng had never been married and had no children, so he didn't really care much about educating his children in terms of learning.
These days, I have been teaching Banggeng's values and outlook on life, and have not considered learning in this area.
"Well, well, well, Uncle, the braised pork you made is really delicious."
Bang Geng hesitated for a long time but couldn't make any sense. Then he picked up a piece of meat, stuffed it into his mouth, and started eating it in big mouthfuls.
This is a look of guilt. I don't need to ask him about it to know that his academic performance is not very good.
How can that be?
Just now Jia Dongsheng was still saying that he wanted to train Banggeng into a talent, but in the blink of an eye, he has learned nothing. Isn't that a slap in his own face?
"Mom, sister-in-law, have you ever cared about Banggeng's academic performance?" Jia Dongsheng turned to look at the two women in the family.
"Shouldn't the school teachers be concerned about academic performance?" Jia Zhang's words have already made it clear that she knows nothing and only knows how to spoil her children every day.
"My grades weren't very good before. Mr. Banggeng once told me that he only cared about playing around in school and didn't study hard."
After all, he is her biological son, so Qin Huairu still knows to pay attention to Banggeng's academic performance. However, she only knows to pay attention but doesn't know how to change it, so she has nothing more to say.
"Is that the end?" Jia Dongsheng asked.
"What else?" Qin Huairu was puzzled.
“That won’t do!”
Jia Dongsheng said angrily, "Since Banggeng doesn't know how to study hard at school, then let him study more at home. Why not play after dinner every day? Let him study and improve his grades as soon as possible."
"From now on, when Banggeng comes home from school, let him study and don't let him go out to play for no reason."
"If you can't even study well, what's the point of playing?"
Jia Dongsheng's words had already left Banggen dumbfounded. If he couldn't even play this, then what was the point of life?
Bang Geng had a decadent look on his face, and suddenly felt that the braised pork in his mouth was not so fragrant anymore.
