Not a Meet Cute

"Is… Is this…?" she wondered curiously, not quite sure what the proper word was to describe the items.

"It's money," Feng answered her. "Copper wen. It's our form of currency." He looked into the bowl and held up a small piece of silver as well, feeling absolutely impressed with his wife. "Your audience really loved you. These are gifts they want you to have, so you can use it to trade for things you like and need."

Wufei looked rather curious. "Do you not have copper wen coins where you are from, Ms. Tuzi?"

"I-I don't know," Tuzi answered honestly. "I never had to use these before." But if these were gifts for her, then she would be glad to accept them. 

Feng caught the confused look on Wufei's face and quickly answered for her. "Tuzi is from a really rural area. She likely never had the opportunity to handle money and trade for things."
