One of the pickled vegetable superheroes - Pickled Vegetables and Eggs

Before becoming a superhero, Preserved Vegetable once rode his tricycle in a hurry through the market. By accident, he bumped into Egg. However, due to his haste, he didn't realize it. Egg became upset and called out: "Preserved Vegetable Lump, you bumped into me and didn't even apologize before leaving, that's so impolite!"

"Huh?" Preserved Vegetable was stunned. Egg continued, "Luckily I have a hard shell, otherwise I would have been scraped and bleeding by now. What? Are you still unwilling to admit it?"

"Not at all, not at all," said Preserved Vegetable hurriedly. "I was in such a rush that I accidentally bumped into you. Sorry about that."

"Sorry doesn't cut it now," Egg said unyieldingly.

"So what do you suggest?" asked Preserved Vegetable. After some thought, Preserved Vegetable added, "Egg, look, you're round and so am I. Although I may not be as perfect and delicate as you now, five hundred years ago we were definitely from the same family. Moreover, my cousin Tea Egg and I were classmates at the Pickling Academy. So please don't hold this against me."

"Preserved Vegetable Head, don't try to butter me up. I'm not falling for that. If you don't give me two spoonfuls of sugar today, I won't let you go," Egg insisted.

Preserved Vegetable was in a hurry but had no choice. He took two spoonfuls of sugar from his tricycle and handed them over to Egg to settle the matter.

That evening, during dinner, Preserved Vegetable mentioned the incident to his mother, Mabu Pancake. Upon hearing it, she became angry and said, "I've long suspected that the whole Egg family are bad eggs. Look at Egg's father - a grown man who wears shiny, colorful clothes every day, singing and bragging everywhere. Every morning when others are sleeping soundly, he gets up to practice his voice, disturbing everyone's sleep. And Egg's mother, with her disheveled appearance, never tidies up. The other day, I went to their house, and she was hatching eggs naked without even wearing pants! Every time she lays an egg, she goes around the streets clucking and showing off, making sure everyone knows. They're such a boastful couple, no wonder they raised such an ill-mannered child."

"Hey, Mother, don't get worked up. It's all in the past, nothing serious," Preserved Vegetable consoled his mother.
