The good joke of crying loudly really attracted the attention of the aunties who were not working in the hospital.
"Jia Zhang, what happened to Bang Geng?"
The first auntie who heard the crying and ran over is the first auntie.
Speaking of which, although there are sometimes some conflicts among the residents in the courtyard, most of the time they are united and have a sense of collective honor.
Therefore, when they hear a child crying, everyone will come out to see what is going on. If an outsider bullies the children in their yard, there is no doubt that the aunties are very capable in fighting.
"I don't know either. Banggeng just came back and started crying without saying a word."
Jia Zhang could only pat Bang Geng's back, completely confused as to what was going on.
"Did someone from another courtyard bully Bang Geng?"
Sha Zhu's neighbor, Lao Wang's sister-in-law, also came out to see what was going on.
"It's possible. There are a few kids in other courtyards who are no good. They are all bad boys who like to bully the honest kids."
Another aunt said.
"Banggeng, be good, stop crying, and tell grandma who bullied you. I'll help you vent your anger."
Jia Zhang's eyebrows were raised. These days, with Jia Dongsheng's return, she hadn't lost her temper for a long time.
But if anyone thinks she is easy to bully, they are wrong. She can transform into the fearless Jia Zhang at any time.
"Grandma, I only ranked third from the bottom."
Banggeng continued to cry with his eyes closed, but he still sobbed as he told the reason.
"Oh, so you didn't do well on the test."
"It's not a big deal. You don't need to cry like this."
"That's right, Jia Zhang, you should comfort Bang Geng. He just didn't do well on the exam. Why is he crying like that?"
When the others heard that it was because he didn't do well in the exam, they immediately stopped caring.
I have to say that although ordinary people of this era understand that learning is a good thing, they do not think it is the only way out.
This is because in this era, being a worker or farmer is considered the highest honor, which is completely different from the ancient system of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans.
In ancient times, scholars had the highest status, but now workers and farmers have the highest status.
Therefore, reading is very important in the eyes of the upper class, but in the eyes of the general public, it is not as important as that of workers and peasants.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t have an education. You can work in a factory or even go to the countryside. As the great men said, there is a lot of room for development in the vast rural areas.
This means that if you don’t do well on an exam, there’s no need to be so sad.
Jia Zhang also believed in this. Upon hearing this, she immediately began to comfort him: "My dear grandson, third from the bottom is third from the bottom. If you didn't do well on the test this time, you can just try again next time. Don't cry, or grandma will be heartbroken."
Perhaps it was Jia Zhang's comfort that worked, Banggeng's little shoulders shook again and again, but the crying gradually stopped.
Soon, Banggeng raised his head and asked with sobs, "Grandma, what about my new clothes and new schoolbag?"
That’s right, although Banggeng was afraid of Jia Dongsheng’s punishment, he was even more sad about not getting the rewards of new clothes and a new schoolbag.
"What new clothes and new schoolbags?" Jia Zhang didn't know about this situation, so she looked at Bang Geng in confusion.
"My second uncle promised me that if I ranked in the top 20 on the test, he would give me a new set of clothes and a new schoolbag as a reward, but now I'm only third from the bottom."
"It's okay, it's okay. You're the third from the bottom, so it's the third from the bottom. Your second uncle won't buy you new clothes and a schoolbag, but grandma will."
Jia Zhang continued to comfort him: "My dear grandson, don't cry."
"Uh-huh."
Hearing that there would be new clothes and a new schoolbag, Banggeng's mood improved, but what about the punishment from his second uncle?
After rolling his eyes, Bang Geng spoke again: "Grandma, my second uncle wants me to get good grades. He said he will punish me if I don't. What should I do?"
"this......"
Jia Zhang is such a smart person, how could Banggeng's little thoughts be hidden from her?
As soon as Banggeng opened his mouth, she understood that Banggeng was afraid of Jia Dongsheng's punishment and wanted her help.
But Jia Dongsheng had already made it clear that she was not allowed to interfere in the children's education.
However, looking at Banggeng's pitiful appearance, how could Jia Zhang bear to ignore him?
But, how should we manage it?
The eldest son and the eldest grandson, the palm and the back of the hand are both flesh, it’s not easy to make a decision!
"grandmother."
Seeing that Jia Zhang was silent, Bang Geng started to act coquettishly. This trick used to be very effective. Although it didn't seem to work so well now, he still wanted to try it. In case it worked, he could avoid the punishment from his second uncle.
"Okay, then I'll talk to your second uncle."
Jia Zhang felt sorry for Banggeng and couldn't bear to refuse him, especially since Banggeng had just cried so miserably, she softened her heart.
Before they knew it, it was time for the workers to get off work.
Jia Dongsheng rode his bike and took Qin Huairu towards the courtyard, chatting as they walked.
"Dongsheng, what place do you think Banggeng will get in the exam?"
As for Bang Geng's biological mother, Qin Huairu also has a mysterious confidence that her son is the best and will definitely get good grades.
However, Jia Dongsheng didn't think so: "I guess there must be a good joke among the last few."
"Ah...why is it so low?"
Qin Huairu was confused. She never expected that Jia Dongsheng was so unconfident about Banggeng.
"Dongsheng, when Banggeng finished his exams, he was so confident that he even asked you for a reward. If he hadn't done well, he wouldn't have dared to ask you for a reward."
As a mother, Qin Huairu still chose to believe her son.
"Haha... People who are not good at studying are always so confident during the exams, but when the test results come out, they are all at a loss."
Qin Huairu, who had never been to school, really couldn't agree with these words.
"Dongsheng, you haven't been to school yet, so how could you know so much? I feel like Banggeng will definitely get good grades."
Qin Huairu smiled and said, "When the time comes, don't be reluctant to give up a new set of clothes and a new schoolbag. I will remember them."
"Remember this. It's best to remember it clearly."
Facing Qin Huairu's teasing, Jia Dongsheng also laughed: "When the time comes, if Banggeng does well in the exam, there will be rewards, but if he doesn't do well, the punishment will be very severe."
"Don't wait until I punish Bang Geng and you, as his mother, get upset and try to stop me from punishing him."
After receiving this vaccination, Qin Huairu really started to feel a little worried.
There was no way. Although she believed in her son, she also trusted Jia Dongsheng unconditionally. For a moment, Qin Huairu was a little conflicted when facing the two most important men in her life.
I don't know whether I should continue to trust my son or change my attitude and persuade Jia Dongsheng to give him a lighter punishment if Banggeng doesn't do well in the exam.
