The farm girl is cleverly farming

Chapter 36 Is It Too Little?
"No, no, pancakes are enough for me alone, fifth sister-in-law, you should rest on the side." Xu shook her head hastily.

The fifth sister-in-law is still sick, how can she let the fifth sister-in-law pancake with her?

There is actually another reason why Shen Wan took the initiative to help Mrs. Xu cook.

That's why she's hungry.

If you help Mrs. Xu prepare the meal earlier, she can also eat earlier.

Last night, I ate a bowl of fish soup and a little fish in it. I was full at the time, but with that little fish soup, I didn’t feel hungry at all!

"Fourth sister-in-law, it's faster for the two of you to make pancakes together, so let me help you. Anyway, I'm fine here, so it's just right for you to pancake together." Shen Wan could see that Xu was concerned about her illness so she refused to let her go. She helped, and said: "After taking the medicine, my illness is almost healed. You don't have to worry about it. Besides, the pancakes are not tired, so why would I be tired?"

When Shen Wan said this, Mrs. Xu hesitated for a while, and seeing that Shen Wan's complexion was not bad, she stopped insisting, "Fifth sister-in-law, then wait for me, wait for me to find a clean wooden basin and put it in the pot. Scoop up the porridge, and then we'll start pancakes together."

"Yeah." Shen Wan nodded.

Mrs. Xu found a wooden basin, simply rinsed it with water, and quickly scooped the porridge from the pot into the basin with a wooden ladle.

Next is to wash the pot.

The semolina used for pancakes was placed in the rice vat in the stove, and when Xu washed the pot, Shen Wan walked over to open the rice vat and scooped out two small bowls of semolina used for pancakes.

When Shen Wan wanted to continue scooping, Mrs. Xu stepped forward to stop her scooping up the semolina, "Fifth sister-in-law, come on, don't continue scooping, two bowls are enough."

There are more than a dozen members of the Qin family, old and young.

How can two bowls of semolina be enough for so many people?

"Sister-in-law four, are two bowls too little?" Shen Wan looked at Xu Shi and asked.

In the past, the Qin family's pancakes could scoop up a few more bowls of semolina, but recently, the Qin family's life is tight, so Qian ordered several daughters-in-law to save some rice noodles at home.

The semolina was used for half a month, but now it takes a month.

Therefore, you can only use two bowls for each meal.

Use too much, not enough.

"Fifth sister-in-law, two bowls are a little short, but as long as I add a little more chopped vegetable leaves to the pancakes, it will be enough to eat." Xu said with a smile.

Shen Wan looked at a large bowl of chopped green vegetable leaves on the stove. Before that, she wondered why Mrs. Xu chopped the vegetable leaves.

It was meant to be used for pancakes.

The semolina is hard and rough, and the baked cakes are not very tasty, but now we have to add vegetable leaves to it!

How to eat then?
"Sister-in-law, can't you scoop up two more bowls of semolina pancakes?" Shen Wan asked.

Mrs. Xu covered the rice vat, took the scooped coarse flour from Shen Wan's hand, and said, "Fifth sister-in-law, the Qin family has already owed nearly ten taels of silver in foreign debts in the village. Mother told us to use it quickly." Rice noodles, I have saved a lot of money, so I can return the money to others sooner."

Shen Wan knew that the Qin family was poor, but she didn't expect that the Qin family was so poor that they almost couldn't afford to eat.

Mrs. Xu returned to the stove, first skillfully put the chopped vegetable leaves into the semolina, and then mixed the noodles with water.Soon, sheets of vegetable leaf thin dough were made in Xu's hands.

Shen Wan watched Xu Shi stick the prepared pancakes on the side of the pot one by one, without saying anything, she went to the stove to help Xu Shi light the fire.
