Chapter 617
The moment Wu Xie stepped out of the prison gate, he felt an indescribable sense of relief, but at the same time, a sense of confusion washed over him. He stood at the prison gate, gazing at the hustle and bustle of the city, but his heart was like a barren desert, unable to find his way.
The driver drove the car steadily, watching Wu Xie through the rearview mirror. He could sense the turmoil in Wu Xie's heart. Finally, the driver broke the silence and said softly, "Little Third Master, there's a snack street up ahead. My brothers told me the food there is really delicious. How about we go try some?"
Wu Xie slowly turned his head, his gaze fixed on the driver, then looked out at the snack street in the distance. It was a narrow, bustling street, bustling with people, full of life. The aroma of various foods mingled in the air, as if beckoning him.
Wu Xie hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to you." He opened the car door and walked towards the snack street.
"Master San, please wait for me over there for a while. I'll park the car and come to find you." The driver sat in the car and pointed to an open space not far away.
When Wu Xie arrived at the entrance to the snack street, he paused, waiting for the driver to park. His eyes were drawn to the bustling scene on the street, with a dazzling array of stalls, and stall owners enthusiastically hawking their specialties.
The snack street was bustling with people, some hurrying, some leisurely, all holding a variety of food. Wu Xie hadn't eaten much that morning because he had to visit his uncle, but the aroma of the food was like a powerful magic that completely whetted his appetite.
Wu Xie couldn't help smelling the tempting aroma, so he quickly walked to the nearest bun shop. Looking at the steaming meat buns, his mouth was watering.
"Boss, how much is this meat bun?" Wu Xie asked.
"Two yuan each, three yuan for two. I guarantee you'll want more meat buns from me after you've had them. Want to try them?" The owner of the bun shop skillfully served food to other customers, while enthusiastically selling his buns to Wu Xie.
Wu Xie listened to the boss's introduction and felt a little itchy, so he took out a banknote and handed it over, saying, "According to what you said, how many of these meat buns are five yuan each?"
The boss took Wu Xie's money and smiled even brighter. He smiled and replied, "Five yuan for six! Don't worry, the meat buns we make are made with pork that was slaughtered that morning. The meat filling is freshly mixed every day, and even the dough is kneaded and rolled out by us ourselves. They are absolutely delicious!"
As he spoke, the boss used tongs to pick up six meat buns from the steamer nearby and put them into the bag. He then stuffed an extra bun into the bag and handed it to Wu Xie, saying, "This is for you. Try it. If it's delicious, come back next time!"
"This extra one is all given to you. If you like it, bring some of your friends to visit my shop next time!"
The bun shop owner didn't care what Wu Xie was going to say, he just stuffed the bag into Wu Xie's hand and explained why there was an extra bun.
"Thank you very much, boss! Next time, when my brother is discharged from the hospital, I will bring him to your store." Wu Xie looked down at the bag stuffed in his hand and smiled.
Wu Xie was carrying a bag of buns. When he saw the driver coming, he took one out and handed it to him. "Try it! The boss over there gave me an extra one, saying it was made with fresh pork."
The driver was stunned at first, then took the meat bun from Wu Xie's hand and stuffed it into his mouth without caring about the heat. "Hiss~ It's really delicious! Hiss~ It's just a little too hot. Hiss~ Ouch!"
Wu Xie was also amused when he saw the driver who was so scalded that he screamed but did not spit out the bun.
The driver heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing this. "Young Master San, how about we go inside? Who knows, there might be more delicious food!"
While eating hot buns, Wu Xie walked into this snack street full of the flavor of life under the guidance of the driver.
"That's great. I wonder if Fatty is better now? I'll bring him some." Wu Xie saw a store selling pastries that looked pretty good, so he bought some and prepared to go to the hospital to see Fatty later.
Wu Xie suddenly thought of the fat man's condition that he had asked the driver to inquire about yesterday. "What's wrong with Fatty? Why didn't the doctor let him leave the hospital because of what he said?"
The driver was stunned at first, then realized, "Oh, nothing's wrong. The doctor just said that Fatty is old, eats too well, and doesn't control his body shape well. He just has some highs, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol, but otherwise there's nothing wrong."
Wu Xie heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. "That's good. When I see Fatty later, I'll give him a good lecture. Let's see what excuse he can use to get out of losing weight this time!"
