Chapter 260: Proud of Her Children

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Bing, reflecting on his consistent full marks in the past, suddenly felt a tinge of regret. He wished he hadn’t always scored perfectly, so he could share the excitement of achieving full marks for the first time with his mother now.

The idea of sharing this joy seemed more fulfilling to him than the actual achievement of full marks.

He even considered intentionally answering a question or two incorrectly in the future. Such a strategy, he thought, might draw his mother’s attention and recognition. Secretly, Su Bing had resolved to do just that.

He didn’t intend to divert his mother’s attention from his younger brother, yet he longed for her praise and affection too.

When Gu Zi learned of Su Li’s success in the math exam, her face lit up with a delighted smile. She affectionately patted her son’s head, saying, “I always knew our second son was capable. With hard work, he can always improve!”

Su Li basked in the warmth of his mother’s love, his smile radiant. Yogurt still clung to his mouth, resembling Santa Claus’s white beard.

He proudly pointed at Su Bing, exclaiming, “Mom, brother got 100 points again! He’s even more amazing, getting full marks every time!”

Gu Zi’s gaze, filled with surprise, turned to Su Bing. Su Bing, feeling somewhat shy, averted her eyes from her mother.

Each time Su Bing scored 100, there was no room for improvement. Would his mother still praise him? He waited in anticipation.

Gu Zi warmly said, “Su Bing, just as I thought, you’re a brilliant child. Both of you are wonderful. I’m so proud of you!”

Su Bing slowly looked up, her cheeks tinged with a blush, and vowed, “I will continue to work hard.”

It dawned on him that he didn’t need to make mistakes intentionally. His mother’s praise was generous and heartfelt, even when she knew his scores.

He no longer wished to deliberately lower his scores. In the future, he wanted to maintain his perfect scores, making his mother proud every time.

Gu Zi declared, “You both are so amazing. Today, we must celebrate with something special as a reward!”

She also planned to buy small gifts for them the next day as a tangible reward, but she kept it a secret to maintain the surprise.

After settling Su Le, Su Bing and Su Li went off to do their homework, while Gu Zi headed to the kitchen.

Su Bing quickly finished his homework and went to the kitchen to help his mother cook.

Gu Zi had prepared lean pork hind legs, removing the fascia and cutting them into large pieces. She was pounding the meat with a mallet. When Su Bing came to assist, Gu Zi handed him another mallet.

“Beat this into a paste,” Gu Zi instructed. “Add water and ginger while pounding. The more you work it, the smoother the paste will become.”

Su Bing took up the task adeptly. Together, they prepared a large bowl of smooth meat paste.

Gu Zi then added an egg, salt, gourmet powder, and other seasonings to the paste, followed by sweet potato powder, kneading it thoroughly. The effort made her forehead sweat, a testament to the task’s physical demands.

Gu Zi readied the meat paste and instructed Su Bing, “The water’s boiling. Use a knife to scrape the paste into pieces for cooking. I’ll season it.”

“What are we making?” Su Bing asked, curious.

“Fuding meat slices.”

Gu Zi crushed seaweed into the soup bowl, adding another layer of flavor.Follow current novelenglish.net . s on novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.ɴet

When Su Shen returned, he was greeted by the sight of Gu Zi with a large bowl of soup garnished with seaweed, chopped green onions, and coriander. The soup, filled with bright pink meat slices, was tantalizing.

The fragrance of meat mingled with the aromatic condiments, whetting Su Shen’s appetite.

Gu Zi embraced him, saying, “Go wash your hands. Dinner’s ready. Tonight, it’s dumplings and Fuding meat slices.”

The dinner was simple yet satisfying. Dumplings steamed in a bamboo steamer, served alongside the meat slices and soup, offered a fresh and invigorating meal.

Su Shen kissed Gu Zits forehead and washed his hands, cherishing the simplicity and joy of his current life. He hoped for it to always remain undisturbed.

During dinner, the deliciousness of the meat slices conquered Su Shen, his sons, and little Lele. Tender, smooth, and chewy, the meat’s natural flavor was enhanced by a subtle hint of seaweed, making it irresistible. After such a satisfying meal, what worries could possibly linger?
