Mr. Wu said awkwardly that it was that thing, but Alan said it was of good quality and would not break.
What he means is to use a "balloon" to hold the yolk, and then swallow it, so that it can be easily expelled. Because it is protected by the balloon, the yolk will not break as long as you don't bite it deliberately.
The "balloon" is the thing with the head.
I don't have this in my hometown, but I used to go to my classmate's house to do homework after school. He had a lot of them in his drawer. We would take them out, blow them full of air, and play with them back and forth in the sky.
I was confused and asked whether Wu Ye's thing would work? It felt a bit unreliable.
Mr. Wu said that I have already said that there is a 30% chance of success. Besides, you will definitely not find anything if you go to the hospital. This is a traditional method. Although it is a bit strange, you can try it. The friend you brought with you should also try it.
.
I know Mr. Wu is referring to the millet outside the door.
After hesitating for a moment, I decided to give it a try. It was better to eat egg yolks than to be afraid.
Eggs are eggs bought in supermarkets. Mr. Wu has them at home, but he doesn’t have that stuff, so he has to buy them outside.
At that time, many small pharmacies did not sell that stuff, so you had to go to specialized supply stores to buy it.
In winter, it was still dark after six o'clock. The elderly in the nursing home went to bed early and woke up early. Many people had already gotten up to exercise. Following the prompts, I rode Mr. Liu's bicycle and took Xiaomi to find the supplies store.
I originally asked Xiaomi to stay and wait, but she said she was afraid and insisted on going with me.
In the early years, it was not as open as it is now. Buying such things was done secretly, and most of the stores were located in nooks and crannies. If it were opened on the main road, the business would definitely not be good, because no one would dare to buy it.
The road was not too far. After riding for more than half an hour, I turned into a remote alley and saw a red sign standing in the distance, which said health care and family planning supplies.
I asked Xiaomi to wait for me at the door because it felt a little awkward.
I pushed the plastic steel door and it was still locked.
I patted the door again.
"Come, come, who is it? It's so early."
A woman about forty years old had foam at her mouth. She must have been brushing her teeth just now.
"What are you doing?" he asked, opening the side window.
I said buy something.
"buy what?"
"Just...just buy that..."
"Which one is that?"
That's what I said! Why can't you understand?
The middle-aged woman became anxious, "How do I know which one it is! Can you tell me which one it is!"
I gritted my teeth and said balloons.
She was stunned for a few seconds, then burst into laughter.
"Imported goods, three boxes, eight yuan." She handed the things out through the window.
I handed over ten yuan and didn't ask her for change.
There was an old man sweeping the floor on the roadside who kept looking at me. His eyes seemed malicious. I said you are looking at shit and get out of the way.
Xiaomi knows better and she is an adult, so she is a little embarrassed.
When I returned to the nursing home at around seven o'clock, Mr. Wu was boiling water in the corridor, opened the lid of the pot and let the steam run. I saw that there were a lot of eggs in the pot, which were already cooked.
After cooling it with cold water, Mr. Wu let us go inside.
I peeled off a bowl of egg yolk and stuffed it into a balloon. I picked one up and took a look. It looked awkward, a little disgusting, and I felt like I couldn't eat it.
