Chapter 225: Likes Cold and Fears Heat
Chapter 225: Likes Cold and Fears Heat
Ruoshui bought a lot of snacks in the supermarket yesterday.
But as soon as I brought it back, my mother took out half of it and shared it with the tribe members to taste.
As for the remaining half, my mother controls how much I eat.
Although Chihua fed her from time to time afterwards, it was never enough for the foodie Ruoshui!
The ore he brought was unexpectedly exchanged for 127 star coins.
Ruoshui couldn't hold back any longer and naturally went shopping!
When it comes to shopping, Jiang Wanwan becomes excited.
I have to introduce the three new items I brought today to the two little mermaids.
Given Ruoshui's personality and status in the tribe, as long as he has eaten it, it won't take long for the other mermaids to know about it.
Jiang Wanwan raised her hand to stop Ruoshui who was about to report the shopping list, and spoke first.
"Don't worry about buying things. When I bought some new food yesterday, I brought some new food with me. Let me show you how it tastes!"
Jiang Wanwan, who has experience, no longer said she would introduce the product, but directly said she would taste it.
After all, no introduction can be more convincing than tasting it directly.
"Ah, you have other delicious food here?" Ruoshui's face was full of surprise.
Maybe you didn't expect that new products would be released here so quickly?
"Well, I brought three new foods. Come over and see if you like them!"
Jiang Wanwan walked around the cashier counter and headed towards the newly added shelves with the two mermaids, with Zuo Xueming following closely behind.
It was also at this time that Ruoshui and Chihua noticed that some things in the supermarket were different from yesterday.
"It seems like your place has gotten bigger again?" Ruoshui said while looking around.
The ocean is boundless, and the mermaids who have always lived in it are actually not sensitive to subtle changes in space!
That is to say, the sudden extra obscured space on the left side is only slightly obvious.
"Yes! Zuo Xueming is here, so we got him a place to sleep!" Jiang Wanwan answered casually.
"That's right. I heard from my mother that you humans pay special attention to these things. I heard that unmarried men and women cannot stay alone in a room." Ruoshui said thoughtfully.
As for why this couldn't be done, his mother had explained a lot, but he didn't quite understand.
Jiang Wanwan smiled without saying anything, not intending to explain modern society's views on this issue.
Let’s focus more on new products!
"This is one of the new items this time, popcorn, it's crispy and sweet!"
Jiang Wanwan picked up a box of popcorn, opened the seal, handed it to Ruoshui, and talked about the precautions.
"After opening this popcorn, it's best to eat it as soon as possible, otherwise the taste will deteriorate if left for too long!"
After Ruoshui took the popcorn, her whole mind was attracted by it, and she no longer cared about Jiang Wanwan's instructions!
Besides, will there be any food left after he gets it?
Ruoshui first lowered her head and took a look at the popcorn in the box.
Orange, round and plump, it looks delicious!
Then I brought it to my nose and sniffed it. It smelled so good!
It still has a completely different aroma from the previous foods.
Finally, he stretched out his fingertips, carefully picked up one and put it into his mouth.
The crispy popcorn split into two in the mouth with the slight knock of teeth.
Crispy and slightly sweet, the more you chew it, the more fragrant it becomes, and the more delicious it tastes!
Ruoshui's eyes lit up as she ate, and she couldn't help but put two more into her mouth before handing the box to Chihua.
"It's delicious. This one is very fragrant. Try it!"
Although Chihua is a man of few words, he is quick to act when he comes across delicious food.
Two mermaids faced each other with a box of popcorn between them, taking turns eating one piece of popcorn.
In less than a minute, the box of popcorn was empty.
Jiang Wanwan just watched with a smile, and turned her head to whisper a few words to Zuo Xueming beside her, imparting the experience she had summarized in the past two days.
Ruoshui finished eating the last piece of popcorn that Chihua gave her, licked the corner of her mouth with an unsatisfied look, and asked.
"I really like this popcorn. How many star coins does it cost?"
Wow, that's progress! I even asked the price.
"It's also 10 star coins a box!" Jiang Wanwan replied with a smile.
Ruoshui nodded, walked to the next shelf very consciously, and spoke.
"Is this also new? What's it called?"
"Little pudding ice cream! This food is a bit special. I don't know if you can accept it?" Jiang Wanwan suggested.
Hearing this, Ruoshui became interested and asked curiously, "Oh? Why is it so special?"
Jiang Wanwan tried her best to explain this food in detail using terms that ancient people could understand.
"It's icy, a kind of iced drink! If you're weak, you might get sick and have a stomachache if you eat it!"
In fact, when Jiang Wanwan decided to bring ice cream, she also hesitated because of this issue.
After all, it is late autumn and early winter, and the weather is turning colder!
Later I thought, the mermaid's body is much stronger than that of humans.
Many modern humans eat ice cream while wearing cotton-padded jackets, so why can’t mermaids do the same!
Furthermore, mermaids live in the sea and wear very thin clothes in their daily lives. They don’t look like they are afraid of the cold at all!
Of course, there is nothing to be afraid of, but the hidden dangers still need to be made clear in advance.
"Ice, you said it's ice?" Ruoshui asked in disbelief.
Then he reached out and touched the small pudding bag in Jiang Wanwan's hand.
"It's actually ice. It's not even winter yet. Is this last year's ice? How did you bring it here? But will the ice taste good? I want to taste it!"
Ruoshui opened her mouth with a series of questions, and finally stated her own demands.
Seeing the other party's look, Jiang Wanwan had to remind him again.
"This is originally for you to taste, but are you sure you won't get diarrhea or get sick if you eat something cold?"
Hearing this, Ruoshui nodded and spoke without thinking.
"If you said it was hot, I might have to think about it, but it's ice cold, how could there be anything wrong?"
The other party spoke so confidently, which proved that Jiang Wanwan's guess was correct.
The mermaids are a race that likes cold and fears heat!
There was no need to hesitate. Jiang Wanwan directly opened the packaging bag of the pudding and handed it to Ruoshui.
Ruoshui unskillfully pinched the small wooden stick at the bottom and brought it to her mouth.
The surface of the little pudding is snow-white and smooth, and its appearance is not bad, but the smell is very faint.
Try taking a bite, it’s icy, smooth and sweet!
Mermaids often live on the bottom of the sea, and their body temperature is actually lower than that of humans.
Therefore, the cold ice cream will not melt too quickly after entering your mouth.
In this way, the flavor can be tasted for longer.
The small bite of ice cream took several seconds in Ruoshui's mouth before it finally melted into her stomach.
This novel yet delicious taste also made him look excited.
