Ye Yun rolled up her sleeves, pulled out a handful of corn grits from the side, and threw them into the small millstone.
"Corn grits?"
Qin Xiang'e stared in astonishment upon seeing this.
Cornmeal is something that every household has, and it's their staple food. It's not rare at all. What fancy things can you make out of it?
