"Yunfang, try this. It's a specialty your sister Yunxiu brought back from the Capital, what's it called again?"
"Sausages." Shen Yunxiu regained her pride.
Shen Yunfang glanced at it, considering that at that time, sausages were only sold in big cities. Villagers from Gaijiatun, who spent their whole lives within a ten-mile radius, wouldn't have seen such a thing. It was indeed something novel to show off.
"Right, that's it. Your sister Yunxiu finds it inconvenient to bring back many things from her husband's place, so she bought some of these novelties for everyone to try, just for that purpose. Don't be shy, everyone stretch out your chopsticks and eat," encouraged Madam Shen with a hearty laugh.
