Chapter 208 Precious Tea Eggs
Chapter 208 Precious Tea Eggs
This week, Lin Feng did not have a night shift. He had breakfast at Zhang Yan's house every morning before going to work. Zhang Yan's work and rest schedule also became more regular. At least he could go home to sleep every day and get up on time to have breakfast in the morning.
If it was the day that Zhang Yan went to the rehabilitation department for rehabilitation, they would go to the hospital together.
The people in the department were also very happy. The reason they were happy was that Lin Feng treated them to American coffee and Zhang Yan treated them to milk tea.
After experiencing being carried on Xiao Tang’s shoulders, Zhang Yan never dared to forget to push his wheelchair upstairs again. He didn’t want to be carried again.
One day, there was suddenly one more person at the breakfast table for the three of them. It was Su Bo Ding, whom Lin Feng hadn’t seen for a long time.
This sight scared Lin Feng. Subodin's dark circles were almost as dark as those of a giant panda.
Aunt Liu was also frightened, "Hey, Xiao Su, what happened to you? Were you beaten?"
This made Zhang Yan laugh. "Auntie, he just needs sleep. Just give him a cup of coffee."
"Oh, that won't work. Just go to sleep if you're sleepy. Look at your pale face. Come to dinner later. Auntie will make you a pot of astragalus, ginseng, red dates and chicken soup to nourish you. Remember to come."
Su Boding ate the tea eggs handed to him by Xiao Tang and nodded randomly. It was not certain where he would be at night. If he could not eat the soup, he could give it to Zhang Yan and Xiao Tang. It would not be wasted anyway.
The tea eggs cooked by Aunt Liu are delicious. They have the fragrance of tea and are a little salty.
After eating the tea eggs and drinking the latte brought by the aunt, Aunt Li looked at Subodin's sallow face and thought about it and decided to add some milk to the coffee. It's not enough to just drink coffee, you have to drink something nutritious.
"Auntie, your tea eggs are so delicious." Su Boding naturally wanted to praise Aunt Liu's cooking skills. Aunt Liu has always been very nice to them.
"Of course. My tea eggs are not like the ones sold outside, which have a lot of spices and soy sauce to make them colorful. There is only tea leaves in my soup, nothing else. It is very clean." Aunt Liu is very confident when talking about cooking. She always uses careful ingredients and cooks carefully, so of course the eggs are delicious.
Lin Feng was also eating tea eggs, which had a strong, mellow aroma and a deep color. It was just like what Aunt Liu said, the taste was just the aroma of tea and the egg itself, a very simple one.
Lin Feng raised his doubts; "Auntie, what kind of tea is this made of? It smells so good."
"Oh, it's the Keemun black tea on the shelf in the storage room. I saw that it was old tea covered with dust, so I used it to make tea eggs." Aunt Liu knew Keemun black tea, which is relatively famous among black teas. She even checked it online. It's only a few hundred yuan per pound, not expensive.
When Su Boding heard that this was cooked with Keemun black tea, he quickly peeled another tea egg and stuffed it into his mouth. This tea egg cost several hundred yuan.
This Keemun black tea was placed on the shelf by Su Boding because Zhang Yan didn’t like drinking tea before and drank coffee every day, which caused the tea leaves to gather dust.
The general Qivalve black tea is not expensive, but this one is the special prize of "Lu Yu Cup", and the annual output is only two or three hundred kilograms. Even if it is old tea, it is still precious.
As soon as Lin Feng saw Su Boding's action, he knew that this tea was not cheap, it should be very expensive. Thinking that this good thing should not be wasted, he kindly reminded Aunt Liu, "Auntie, I have some black tea made by my aunt in my hometown. Next time, use that black tea to cook tea eggs for us to eat. I also want to see if it tastes good."
Subodin's mouth was blocked by the tea egg, but he still nodded in agreement.
Zhang Yan finished drinking the milk, wiped the milk foam on his mouth, and then said to Lin Feng slowly, "No, you can keep the tea made by Aunt Qinfen for yourself. It is Aunt Qinfen's intention and the taste of home.
Auntie still uses that tea to cook tea eggs. After she uses it up, there is still some left on the shelf. I don’t drink it anyway, so it’s a waste to leave it there. You see, it’s all covered in dust. It tastes especially good when I use it to cook tea eggs.”
Zhang Yan only ate one tea egg. He ate it every day but didn't think it was that delicious.
While eating beef steamed buns, I watched Subodh wolfing down the food and was really worried that he would choke to death.
"Xiao Ding, don't drink coffee all the time. Go pick a box of tea from the shelf. Old people say tea is good for health." Zhang Yan thought that Su Boding had been with him for so many years and had always been very sensible. He had a lot of expensive things, but Su Boding had never asked him for anything. It was just a box of tea, nothing.
Subodin ate three tea eggs, a cup of latte, a cup of milk, a sweet potato, and a plate of steamed buns in the way of a starving ghost.
Then he touched his stomach and slumped in the chair. He was really starving to death. He had not eaten since yesterday afternoon and relied entirely on coffee to survive.
Subodin sat for a while to calm down, then stood up and went to the living room to bring over a pile of things.
Five mobile phone boxes in different colors are ahead.
"The purple one is for my aunt, the cyan one is for Xiao Tang and me, the black one is for the boss, and the white one is for Dr. Lin, the angel in white. I also bought a lot of phone cases, and you can choose freely."
"I want the white one." Zhang Yan exchanged the phone in front of him with Lin Feng's.
Lin Feng had no objection, but he didn't understand what was going on with this phone.
"Is today a special day? Why are you distributing benefits like this?"
Lin Feng felt that Zhang Yan simply had too much money to burn. This was not the way to buy a mobile phone. It was just like buying fruits in a fruit store, one melon per person.
Zhang Yan looked at Su Boding and motioned him to explain the matter clearly.
Su Boding felt very bitter. This was simply Zhang Yan's way of going crazy and acting like a spoiled child in the middle of the night. He insisted on getting a new phone and changing it for everyone.
How could he know why...
Subodin gritted his teeth and started to make up the story, which was even more stressful than when he was making a project report at the city government.
"This is not just our boss's experience after his business trip to Wanyang City. We Chinese still need to support domestic products, so that the domestic manufacturing industry can develop better and catch up with the quality of foreign products. So, I thought about changing to a domestic mobile phone.
I thought that since my boss had changed, I had to keep up, so I bought one for each of us and we all got new phones together.”
After saying this, Subodin felt that he was simply a genius.
It was not the day that the boss got back from a business trip and started thinking about buying a new phone late at night. He even specifically requested to swipe the access card, the same one Dr. Lin had.
