Cai, who had no time to grind flour from the new grain field, ate what was left over. She poured out the remaining cornmeal in the bag, added water and kneaded the flour. There was a chicken stewing in the pot, so she put the pancakes directly on the edge of the pot and covered the pot. By the time the chicken was stewed, the pancakes were cooked as well.
Tian Cai didn't have his meal until after three o'clock, and Mimi also ate a lot.
