I could see a shuttle bus coming from afar.
Xiao Wu and Lin Zhou both took a few steps forward, and the people on the bus noticed the two standing in front of the stop.
Upon seeing the familiar figure, Wang Fugui slapped his thigh in delight and jumped up.
The old man, over seventy years old, was so frightening that Luo Yougen, who was standing to the side, quickly helped him up.
"My goodness, what are you doing? The car hasn't even come to a complete stop yet, and you're already standing up and jumping around. Aren't you afraid of falling?"
His excited appearance drew the attention of all the passengers on the bus.
Even though Luo Yougen is quite old, he still felt his face burning.
They're all so old, why are they still so easily startled? They don't act calm and collected at all, what are others going to think of them!
"The young man selling tea eggs is waiting, Master, hurry over there."
Uncle Ding didn't need Grandpa Wang to say anything.
I recognized the two men at the bus stop as the young man who sold tea eggs yesterday when I was at the intersection.
With the joy of soon being able to eat tea eggs, Uncle Ding drove the car directly to Lin Zhou Xiao Wu and slowly opened the door.
With his many years of driving experience, Lin Zhou and Xiao Wu didn't even need to walk an extra step to get into the car; they could just lift their feet and get in.
That was incredibly thoughtful. After parking the car, Uncle Ding looked at Lin Zhou with expectant eyes.
Lin Zhou glanced at the open car door and was somewhat flattered.
In such a small town, there are few young people; most are middle-aged or elderly, and the older people don't even know how to use a smartphone.
Even if a celebrity appeared in front of them, they might not recognize him, let alone Lin Zhou.
No one recognizes him when he goes out without wearing a mask.
Even though some young people had seen him online, he always wore a mask when he was setting up his stall.
People you meet online, when they appear in real life, unless you're very familiar with them, it's hard to imagine that the person selling tea eggs on a bus in such a small town is the same Mr. Lin who went viral online last week.
The Mr. Lin in his suit and tie is quite different from the Mr. Lin in the small town who dresses simply, modestly, and casually.
Therefore, it's rare for Lin Zhou to be able to set up his stall so easily and comfortably.
As soon as he got on the bus, Uncle Ding took out fifty yuan and handed it to him.
"Young man, give me five tea eggs."
Uncle Ding specially prepared fifty yuan today, which he put in his pocket, so that Lin Zhou can eat as soon as he arrives. He didn't get enough to eat yesterday.
Grandpa Luo, who had been silently watching Lin Zhou from the side, widened his narrow eyes in surprise at this scene.
What?
Fifty yuan for five tea eggs?
Was he not the only one who got scammed?
No way, this driver seems pretty shrewd.
Luo Yougen scratched his head, puzzled.
Wang Fugui, who was sitting inside, couldn't wait any longer.
Before Lin Zhou could go into the carriage, he got up ahead of Luo Yougen and went straight to the front door where Lin Zhou was.
"Young man, give me two too."
Lin Zhou was delighted to have business as soon as he got on the bus. He happily opened the insulated box, and the rich and fragrant aroma of tea eggs immediately filled the carriage.
The passengers, who were incredibly curious about tea eggs, craned their necks in amazement to look at Lin Zhou upon smelling the aroma.
"How much are these tea eggs? They smell really good."
The carriage was originally filled with the smells of gasoline, breakfast, animal excrement, and other odors.
Until the aroma of the tea eggs, with an absolute victory, suppressed all the other odors, leaving only this fragrance in front of the noses of all the passengers on the bus, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Lin Zhou took out a plastic bag, first wrapped up the five tea eggs the driver had asked for, and handed them over, exchanging money for tea eggs.
After the transaction was completed, just as he was about to answer the questions from the passengers in the carriage, Grandpa Wang, who was waiting on the side, had already answered them for him.
"Ten yuan each."
Wang Fugui's loud voice struck the hearts of passengers who wanted to buy some tea eggs to try.
Actually, early in the morning, when you encounter someone selling tea eggs on the shuttle bus, anyone who hasn't had breakfast wants to buy a couple to tide them over.
Tea eggs aren't very expensive.
The passenger never expected that his rare initiative would be met with such profound silence.
What? Tea eggs cost ten yuan each?
Who can afford this?!
No, that's not right. Some people can afford it. The driver has already started eating it!
The passengers all fell silent.
Before Lin Zhou could even speak, Grandpa Wang was incredibly excited, enthusiastically telling everyone how delicious a ten-yuan tea egg was.
"Oh, you guys have no idea, I was shocked when I heard this price yesterday. I thought I'd run into a rip-off, so I called the police. And guess what happened!"
Grandpa Wang speaks like a storyteller, not only with varied intonation and emotion, but also with facial expressions and gestures.
The people on the bus were stunned.
"Then what?"
The opening line immediately captured the attention of all the passengers on the bus, who eagerly watched Grandpa Wang, waiting for what would follow.
Standing to the side, Lin Zhou, who had already packed two tea eggs, was caught in a dilemma: whether to extend his hand or not.
I watched awkwardly as the old man recounted what had happened yesterday.
Luo Yougen had already heard the same thing yesterday.
This time, attention was focused on Lin Zhou instead.
Seeing the tea eggs in his hand, I curiously took out my money and bought one.
Although Wang Fugui said it was delicious.
But he felt that Wang Fugui had been deceived.
He has to try it himself to know the truth.
Ten yuan a piece is too expensive. He bought vegetables all morning and only earned a little over ten yuan.
They grow their own vegetables, and if they can't finish them, they take them to town to sell, just to earn a little extra money. Otherwise, they would feel bad seeing the vegetables go to waste.
You can't make much money selling these vegetables.
Luo Yougen was heartbroken that his hard-earned money from the morning wasn't enough to buy two tea eggs.
With his old friend's enthusiastic promotion in his ears, Luo Yougen treated it like a storyteller, took the tea egg, peeled it, and took a bite.
"It smells good!"
As people get older, their teeth become weaker. Luo Yougen usually eats various stews, soft and light dishes.
It's rare to eat something so flavorful.
The aroma of the tea eggs is immediately noticeable upon tasting them; it's the fragrance of a broth infused with various spices and herbs. It's so fragrant that just smelling it makes your mouth water. And once you taste it, you can only imagine how delicious and mellow it is.
Then, the delicate aroma of tea further elevates the overall flavor of the tea eggs, adding a subtle tea fragrance.
The eggs themselves have a rich flavor, and you can tell they are free-range eggs. The eggs are golden yellow, and they have a strong egg aroma when you bite into them.
Luo Yougen ate one after another without making a sound.
He has bad teeth, so he eats slowly, nibbling the food gently in his mouth.
On the contrary, you can better appreciate the flavor of the tea egg.
He looked completely satisfied with his meal.
After excitedly recounting the entire process of calling the police yesterday, Wang Fugui turned around and saw Luo Yougen sitting there, eyes half-closed, eating heartily.
Wang Fugui: ? ? ?
