Two examples of code-switching are when Tan speaks "incorrect" or "broken" English to her mom in the first personal anecdote (when she tells her mom not to buy something), and when Tan realizes that the English she's using for a literary event is strange to use in front of her mother.
This code-switching reflects Tan's complex upbringing and Asian-American background, because, unlike many people who don't come from immigrant families or who don't speak several languages, she was acutely aware of certain sociolinguistic systems from an early age. For example, although Tan's mother's English makes sense to her, Tan would have to talk for her mother in several situations in order to be understood, to be taken more seriously, or even to be treated fairly.

Answer:
Get upstairs! And don't come down with dirty hands
Explanation:
This question is about "Brighton Beach Memoirs" and shows the moment when Kate is extremely irritated and frustrated with her son's behavior. Kate's son was playing baseball, but he allowed the ball to hit the house hard, causing a loud noise that left Kate possessed of anger and frustration. That was the moment when she had a fight with her son, shouting for him to go up and wash his hands immediately.
