Must be because there wasn't enough money

Elder Lin's wife boiled a large pot of water, poured all eight packets of instant noodles into the pot, and peeled some potatoes according to the number of people they had.
Elder Lin's wife muttered unhappily, "It's eight copper coins for a bowl of noodles, but there's not even a piece of meat."
Elder Lin stared straight at the pot. "They said that the meat has been mixed into the ingredient pack. If there's no meat, how can this soup be so fragrant?"
The rich fragrance of noodles kept entering Elder Lin's wife's nostrils. She still couldn't help but mutter, "It's fragrant, but it's too expensive."
Five bowls costing 40 copper coins would allow them to buy several catties of brown rice.
Under everyone's expectant gazes, the instant noodles were finally cooked. Elder Lin personally scooped a bowl of instant noodles for himself. Without waiting for everyone, he started sucking.
