Having personally tasted the millet crisps, Mr. Shi found this question truly beyond his comprehension.
Moreover, in his opinion, if these millet crisps were purely handmade by rural women, they wouldn't last very long.
"That's because when my senior was young, her family was poor. They couldn't afford snacks for the kids. There were many kids at home who always craved food, running up hills and down rivers every day. After eating, they would quickly burn off energy and get hungry again. Homemade snacks like millet crisps, malt sugar, and rice crisps could be supplied to the kids endlessly. Every time she and the village kids went out to play, they'd pack a few pieces in their pockets and eat them when hungry. Very convenient."
Even though Shi Wangyue couldn't quite relate, he was still quite impressed by the capabilities of the rural women from that area, "Her mom's pretty handy then."
