As Zhang Guoqing left the Shangpo Team, it was getting late. Declining the Jiang family's generous offer to stay for dinner, he left on his bike with a basket full of twenty eggs and fresh vegetables in one hand.
Those twenty eggs really tired him out. He wasn't worried about the eggs costing ten cents each. Yes, indeed ten cents apiece, and that's already considered cheap, all thanks to Jiang Lishi's mother's good reputation.
His biggest concern was accidentally breaking them and then getting scolded by people for being wasteful.
This is no joke. He's experienced it firsthand!
