Chapter 245: A dish that children won’t eat and adults will find soulless – Stir-fried pork with bamboo shoots



"Uncle, Mom, you're back."

When the bicycle arrived at the gate of the courtyard, Banggeng was already coming to greet it excitedly.

Ever since Jia Dongsheng gave him a lesson, most of the time, when Jia Dongsheng and Qin Huairu came back, Banggeng would be there to greet them at the door. Of course, sometimes he would forget about it when he started playing with his friends.

But today Banggeng was waiting at the gate early, and his expression was full of joy.

"Great! How was the exam?"

Needless to say, these are pure Chinese parents. The first time they meet their children after an exam, they must talk about their children’s test scores.

"Pretty good."

Bang Geng said excitedly, "I feel like I did very well on the test this time. I answered all the questions on the test paper."

"real?"

There is a saying that goes, like children, like parents.

Hearing Banggeng's mysterious confidence, Qin Huairu chose to believe it immediately. After all, in her eyes, Banggeng was still a very good kid.

"Bang Geng, you're awesome. Mom will make whatever you want to eat tonight."

"I......"

When he was about to say what he wanted to eat, Banggeng saw Jia Dongsheng looking at him, and in an instant he swallowed the words back.

"Second uncle."

"Um."

Nodding and glancing at Bang Geng, Jia Dongsheng asked, "Do you think you did well on the exam?"

"Yeah." Banggeng nodded affirmatively, as if saying, "You can praise me."

"In that case, does that mean the goal I set for you is too low?"

"Uncle, it's okay."

"Well enough?"

Jia Dongsheng smiled and said, "Okay, it seems Banggeng is really confident."

"In that case, should we raise the standards?"

Facing Jia Dongsheng's smile, Banggeng should have felt a little warm, but on the contrary, he actually got goosebumps and shuddered in the middle of summer.

"No need, second uncle, I think the original standard will do." Banggeng murmured.

Although he was very confident in his heart, when he saw Jia Dongsheng's smile, Banggeng suddenly felt insecure.

"No, Banggeng, if you are so confident, then Second Uncle must be even more confident."

Jia Dongsheng smiled and said, "How about this? We won't set the standard too high. As long as you have average grades, you'll pass."

"What does average student mean?" Banggeng was a little confused.

"Ten to fifteenth place is considered an average student. So, how about that? Do you still have confidence?"

Banggeng couldn't help but start calculating in his mind. He calculated based on the results of the last final exam. After thinking about how fluently he answered the questions today, he felt that it should be about the same.

"Have faith."

This answer did not surprise Jia Dongsheng. All the poor students who had just finished their exams had this confidence.

Qin Huairu was listening to the conversation between the uncle and nephew, and she was very happy. She felt it was great. After teaching Jia Dongsheng, he really made great progress. She couldn't help feeling gratified.

"Okay, since you are so confident, the standards for rewards and punishments will definitely be raised accordingly."

"Rewards and punishments?"

These words instantly popped up in Banggeng's mind, and she immediately cut off and threw aside the word "punishment". She felt that she must be among the top fifteen in the class, and the punishment had nothing to do with her.

"Uncle, what is the reward?" Banggeng asked with implicit anticipation.

"The reward is simple. I will buy you a new set of clothes and a new school bag. How about that?"

"That's great, Uncle, I will definitely be in the top fifteen."

When he heard that there would be new clothes and a new schoolbag, Banggeng jumped up excitedly.

At this moment, Banggeng felt that these rewards were already in his hands.

As for the punishment, he had forgotten about it and didn't ask. But Jia Dongsheng just looked at the happy Banggeng with a smile on his face, thinking: "Just jump and dance. See how you can still laugh if you don't achieve this result."

This time, Jia Dongsheng has decided that he will teach Banggeng a profound lesson and completely shatter his mysterious self-confidence.

"I remember going fishing before and I seemed to pass by a bamboo forest."

"It's said that bamboo spanking is a famous dish. What's it called? I forgot."

Jia Dongsheng pushed the cart and walked into the courtyard with Qin Huairu and Bang Geng. He thought as he walked, and only when he returned to the house did he remember.

“Stir-fried spring bamboo shoots with meat.”

Well, this dish is really good. Banggeng grew up being doted on by Jia Zhangshi and favored by Qin Huairu. He probably has never eaten this dish. How can this be possible?

Children who have never grown up eating fried bamboo shoots with meat are soulless.

Banggeng must try the taste of fried bamboo shoots with meat.

"Brother Dongsheng, you're back."

Qin Jingru was sitting on the sofa, drinking Beibingyang soda. The cold taste was very refreshing. When she saw Jia Dongsheng and others enter the room, she immediately stood up.

"Well, I'm back." Jia Dongsheng walked over and sat on the sofa. He naturally picked up the drink Qin Jingru was drinking and took a big sip. The refreshing feeling made him breathe a sigh of relief and feel comfortable.

"Brother Dongsheng, I've prepared the meal. When are we going to eat?"

"Are you ready?"

Jia Dongsheng was stunned: "So fast?"

"Well, I just thought we could eat as soon as you and my sister got back."

Qin Jingru is now quite familiar with the logistics work.

"Okay, let's eat then."

After Jia Dongsheng finished speaking, he went to the bathroom and washed his face. When he came out, he was full of energy.

When the weather is hot, you should wash your face more often to feel more energetic.

These days, dinner at home is not anything fancy, just simple noodles with meat sauce.

There's no other way. It's hot and I can't eat anything else. I just slurp down the noodles with meat sauce, eating them quickly and happily.

After eating, have another bowl of noodle soup. The original soup and the original food can be described in one word: delicious.

After dinner, Jia Dongsheng began to prepare to boil water for tea.

Jia Dongsheng did not give this task to Qin Jingru because he wanted to drink Kung Fu tea in the evening, and Qin Jingru did not know how to make it.

"By the way, Banggeng, when will your test results be released?"

"Second uncle, in a week."

"A week..."

He nodded and let Banggeng enjoy himself for a week. At the same time, he also decided that he must go to Shichahai to pick a few bamboo shoots this Sunday.

Otherwise, he was not very good at frying meat with a wooden stick. If he didn't control the strength properly and hurt the stick, that would not be what he wanted to see.

Jia Dongsheng just wanted to teach Banggeng a lesson so that he would remember it, but he didn't want to sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice and beat Banggeng onto the bed.
