Lin Hai's family runs a small-scale egg-laying farm. In addition to wholesale to vegetable markets and supermarkets, there are still a lot of eggs left every day. Lin Hai's father drives an electric tricycle through villages and alleys to sell.

That day, Dad Lin Hai was sick, but he had to sell the eggs, so Dad Lin Hai asked Lin Hai to sell them. When Lin Hai loaded the eggs and started the tricycle to set off, Dad Lin Hai said, "Remember, when you go to Luochao Village, you must leave four broken eggs. There is a hunchbacked old lady who will come to buy it, and sell it to her at half price."

Lin Hai said, "But what if there are no broken eggs?"

Dad Lin Hai said firmly, "Then you can break four eggs gently, but only a little bit, and you can't let the egg liquid flow out."

Lin Hai now understood that his father was taking care of the old grandmother.

Business was smooth along the way, and everyone said while buying eggs, "You are Lao Lin's son, right? Look at you two, why didn't your father come?"

Lin Hai told everyone that his father was sick, and everyone was quite concerned when they heard it, saying: "Then you have to take good care of your illness, hi, you are really good, the scale is high, and you are as honest as your father."

Lin Hai was happy when he heard it. It turned out that Dad's reputation was so good, no wonder the business was booming.

In Luochao Village, there was indeed an old woman with a hunchback who came to buy eggs. The old woman said with a flat mouth, "Hey, where's Lao Lin?"

Lin Hai hurriedly said, "Old Lin is my father, and he is sick. Grandma, how many eggs do you want?"

The old woman looked carefully at the egg basket and said, "Are there any eggs with broken shells? I want four."

Dad is right, the old grandma really buys broken eggs. Lin Hai quickly handed over four broken eggs and said, "Yes, grandma, the eggs are broken, so only half price is charged."

Time passed day by day, Dad's body has not fully recovered, Lin Hai has been helping sell eggs. He remembered leaving four broken eggs for the old grandmother every day, but when the electric car drove to Luochao Village that day, Lin Hai found that there were no broken eggs in the car, and the previous broken eggs were bought by others.

And the old grandmother stood in front of him waiting to buy eggs. Lin Hai was anxious, anxious, and intelligent. He suddenly turned the corner, turned the car into a corner that the old grandmother could not see, and then gently knocked on the eggs. Maybe because of too much force, he broke two in a row, and the egg liquid was all spilled. Lin Hai was a little distressed, but continued to knock, and finally collected four broken eggs.

After knocking on the egg, Lin Hai looked up and found a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy standing not far in front. He looked at Lin Hai and left. The old grandmother didn't know what happened at all, and she happily bought the half-price egg.

In the days to come, Lin Hai has been preparing broken eggs for the old grandmother, and of course, sometimes it is necessary to deliberately break the good eggs into broken eggs.

After a few years, Lin Hai continued to help Dad take care of the egg-laying farm. With the hard work of the family, the size of the egg-laying farm has expanded a lot, and Lin Hai still rides a tricycle to sell the rest after wholesale eggs. Dad is old, and Lin Hai has done everything outside.

What remains unchanged is that Lin Hai still keeps half-price eggs for the old grandmother, but it has changed from four to two. The old grandmother said that her grandson went to college in other places, so two is enough.

During this period, Lin Hai did not complain. Once he couldn't help but say to his father, "Dad, let's break the good egg and sell it for half price. Let's not talk about the loss. The problem is that the old grandmother still doesn't know that the egg was broken on purpose.

Dad shook his head seriously and said, "Haizi, grandma is very pitiful. The son and daughter-in-law left due to an accident, leaving only the grandson as a relative. Can we help a little bit?

The days were going smoothly, but the egg market had suddenly changed: eggs were difficult to sell, because there were large foreign chicken farmers constantly attacking the local market. Those large chicken farmers were strong and good at marketing. All the eggs they supplied to the vegetable market and supermarkets were on credit, and the discounts were high. By other means, Lin Hai's eggs could not be sold at once.

After struggling for a period of time, Lin Hai finally became desperate. The only way out was to transfer the laying hens farm, and this laying hens farm condensed their family's hopes and sweat! When this decision was made, the whole family was heartbroken, but it was the only way to go.

On that day, Lin Hai continued to sell eggs in the village alleys. When he rode to Luochao Village, he suddenly remembered something: because he was upset, he forgot to break the eggs, and in front of him was the old grandmother's house.

Lin Hai hurriedly got out of the car, looking for the two largest eggs to break carefully. After knocking, he looked up and found that two people came in front of him, a tall young man holding the hunchback old grandmother.

The young man humbly asked, "Brother, do you still remember me? I started my own business after graduating from college, and now I have a food factory in the city. The scale is okay, and the amount of eggs used is relatively large. I want to make a contract with you, and I will cover all the eggs you produce in the future."

Lin Hai had long heard that there was a college student in Luochao Village who had started his own business quite successfully, but he never imagined that it was this young man in front of him.

Lin Hai was so excited that he almost jumped up: "Thank you! Thank you! But why did you help me?"

"A few years ago, when I was a high school student, I came across you knocking eggs. It wasn't until then that I realized why Grandma was lucky enough to get half-price eggs every time," the young man said.

It turned out that the big boy from a few years ago was him.

The young man said to the old grandmother, "Grandma, did you see it just now? This is how the broken eggs that big brother sold you all these years came."

Lin Hai blushed, and the hunchbacked old grandmother stepped forward to grab Lin Hai's hand and said with red eyes, "You silly child..."

The young man said, "Brother, did you know that from elementary school to high school, four broken eggs were the only 'extra 'nutrition for me and grandma..."

Lin Hai's hand and the young man's hand clenched together. Lin Hai's heart was up and down, it turned out that the small actions of their father and son accidentally planted a seed of kindness.
