Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

Under the illumination of four oil lamps, in the main room of Cheng Wan's house, the people in the Cheng family's main room had already tidied themselves up and were looking around in wonder at the things in the room.

"What...what are these things? I have never seen such food before!"

"Is this white sugar? It's so white!"

"What kind of bucket is this made of? How can you still see the contents inside? The yellowish thing inside is... is it oil?"

"What's in these big and small boxes? And these bottles and jars..."

"Oh my god, this quilt is so soft to the touch. It's softer than the quilt at Mu Shizi's house. It's so light to hold!"

"Look, there's a tea set here. Oh my god, I think this tea set is even prettier than the tea set from Prince Mu's family!"

"And this ornament, isn't this yellow gold?!"

......

Cheng Wan watched with a smile on her face as her family members excitedly discussed these things in low voices. She raised her eyebrows in a great mood and thought to herself, "You will be happier if you share good things with your family and friends."

"Awan, did you buy these things from traveling merchants?"

Xu Zhinian held a small flip-top round mirror in his hand and asked Cheng Wan fondly.

Cheng Wan nodded calmly, "Yes, I bought them all from traveling merchants."

Xu Zhinian wanted to ask something more, but at this moment, the door was knocked from outside.

"Awan."

It's Cheng Erniu and the others here.

"Oh my God!"

Cheng Erniu's family and Aunt Cheng's family were naturally shocked when they saw these things they had never seen or heard of before.

Mrs. Lin coughed loudly to stop everyone's random questions and exclamations.

"Ah Wan, everyone is here. Can you tell us what these are, are they for food or for use? This good thing is here, and we don't know it."

Xu Zhinian nodded in agreement. Although she knew the words, she had no idea what the various symbols on these things meant.

Before leaving for the evening, Cheng opened a box of bread and distributed two to each person. After giving out, there was exactly not a single loaf left in the box.

"This is bread, you can eat it if you tear the bag open like this."

After saying that, Cheng Wan took the first bite.

Soft, waxy, sweet and delicious.

Cheng Wan chewed the bread and tried to remember how the bread was made.

After reminiscing, Cheng Wan pursed her lips and gave up.

She really didn't have the process of making snacks like bread in her mind.

"Ouch, this is too soft!"

"It smells so good!"

......

A loaf of bread is only as big as a child's fist, so the adults in the room can basically finish one in two bites.

But they finished one and left the second one uneaten.

I don’t want to part with such a good thing, I want to leave it to my children.

Gu Yu leaned on Cheng Wan's legs and sat on a small bench, holding a piece of bread in both hands and eating it deliciously.

The carefree look made Cheng Wan couldn't help but pinch the little baby's cheek.

Nuts, cherries, chocolate, spicy bars, potato chips...

Cheng Wan took apart these things and gave a little to each person to ensure that everyone could taste it.

Of course, these people do not include Gu Yu.

The baby was too young. Cheng Wan didn't dare to let him eat or drink anything like spicy strips, potato chips, cola...for fear of causing some problems.

The little baby was quite well-behaved. After Cheng Wan explained it to him, he stopped making any fuss and looked very happy while sucking half a box of pure milk.

Yes, even the pure milk was specially processed by Cheng Wan, leaving only half a box of it, for fear that the baby would feel uncomfortable if he drank too much.

Cheng Erping held spicy sticks in his left hand and held a small half bowl of Coke in his right hand, his eyes shining.

"Awan, where did that traveling businessman come from? Will he come to us again in the future?"

Cheng Wan sucked on a box of yogurt and shook her head.

"The traveling merchant said that he came from a place far, far away. This time he came to our village by accident. He probably won't come again in the future."

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Cheng Erniu and Cheng Xiaoyu, even Mrs. Lin's face was full of uncontrollable disappointment.

Then Mrs. Lin took out the straw from her mouth and said, "Don't eat it! Don't drink it either! It's just this little thing. After eating and drinking, it will be gone!"

Xiao Lin swallowed the spicy sticks in his mouth and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, you have to save some money and keep these well. When Wan and her children grow up, they can also taste such delicious food."

Cheng Wan: "..."

"These things can't be stored for that long. Like these spicy strips, in the current weather, you have to finish them in four or five days at most. This milk and yogurt are better and can be stored for half a year..."

Mrs. Lin's face was full of heartache, "Why can we only keep such delicious food for such a short time! Ouch! I... I can't bear to eat it!"

Xu Zhinian, like Cheng Wan, was sucking on a box of yogurt. She pointed at the "no one cares about" bottles and jars and asked curiously: "What are those?"

Cheng Wan introduced the bottles and jars to Xu Zhinian one by one, and the attention of Wang, Xiaolin and Aunt Cheng were also attracted.

Xu Zhinian's eyes were shining as he looked at the bottles and jars on the table, "This is so amazing. It's the first time I've seen this style of facial oil, and this kind of lip... lipstick, this tube. So delicately done!”

"What's in that box?"

Cheng Wan looked at the cardboard box Xu Zhinian pointed at, leaned close to Xu Zhinian's ear and whispered, "In there are things that women need to use during menstruation."

Xu Zhinian quickly retracted his fingers, his cheeks turning slightly red.

"Like that little mirror?"

Cheng Wan noticed that Xu Zhinian would look at the small mirror from time to time.

Xu Zhinian said calmly: "I like it."

Facing Cheng Wan, Xu Zhinian believed that there was no need to hide his true thoughts.

Cheng Wan put the small mirror into Xu Zhinian's hand, "Although this mirror is rare, it is not eye-catching. I can't let you take away other food for the time being. If you want to eat, just come to my house. Then. A travel businessman said that if these things were spread, it would probably cause him trouble and affect his smooth return to his hometown, so I promised him that I would not let these things leave my yard for the time being."

Before the sweet potatoes were planted, Cheng Wan didn't want to cause unnecessary problems.

After the sweet potatoes are grown, compared with the big treasure of sweet potatoes, those edible gadgets are naturally not worth mentioning in the eyes of caring people.

Xu Zhinian nodded solemnly, "I understand what you mean, don't worry!"

Cheng Wan asked Gu Yu to sit up straight, bent down and pulled out a cardboard box from under the table.

"Awan, is there anything else you haven't shown us? What kind of treasure is this?"

Cheng Erping came forward with good faith, looked down and saw only a box of red lumps.

"Ah, what is this? What kind of tree root?"
