Xiao Lin glanced at Zhou Yong and accepted the ten yuan he handed over. Then he looked at Jiang Zhiying, who also accepted the money generously.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhou." Jiang Zhiying smiled sweetly, "Uncle Zhou, you are so nice!"
Xiao Lin was speechless for a moment. Isn't it just ten yuan? Is it necessary for this girl to laugh like this?
Dinner was served soon. Today's meal was similar to usual, but Zhou Yong didn't know. When he saw stewed chicken and hand-shredded chicken on the table, he felt flattered!
Jiang Shixun was so polite that he actually cooked two chickens and stir-fried meat with mushrooms to entertain him.
"Comrade Jiang, you're so polite!" Zhou Yong said awkwardly, "We're all brothers. I just came over to take a look. There's really no need to spend so much money!"
The Jiang family just smiled and said nothing. No one was stupid enough to tell him that this was how they usually ate.
Jiang Shixun poured Zhou Yong a small glass of wine: "Comrade Zhou, try this wine. It's not strong. I know you'll be driving soon, so I won't give you too much. Just try it and see how it tastes. You can take a bottle home later and drink it slowly."
Zhou Yong smiled and said, "Okay!"
He didn't dare drink too much, after all, he had to drive later.
He also saw that the amount poured by Jiang Shixun was not much, probably less than one or two taels. He could drink it and take a rest before going back, so he didn't have to worry about not being able to drive.
Jiang Shixun also poured himself a glass, and then clinked glasses with Zhou Yong: "This wine won't make you drunk. Try it and see if you like it."
Zhou Yong took a tentative sip and was shocked. This wine tasted better than any special wine he had ever tasted before!
He couldn't help but ask Jiang Shixun: "Comrade Jiang, what is this wine..."
Jiang Shixun didn't answer but asked, "How do you think it tastes?"
Zhou Yong swallowed his saliva and said in amazement, "It tastes so good!"
Jiang Shixun smiled and said, "Really? I think it tastes good too. Since you like it, take a bottle back later."
But he didn't say where he bought the wine.
Zhou Yong vaguely realized that the origin of this wine might be complicated, so he wisely stopped asking questions and started eating. He was curious about the mushrooms grown by Jiang Shixun, so he tried the mushrooms first.
What Jiang Shixun and his men planted were actually ordinary oyster mushrooms, not a rare variety.
This type of mushroom is easier to grow and is more suitable for the current temperature, so he tried growing oyster mushrooms first, and plans to expand the scale before trying chicken leg mushrooms, Agaricus bisporus and Enoki mushrooms.
Zhou Yong had naturally eaten oyster mushrooms before, but he didn't know whether it was because of preconceived notions or because Jiang Shixun's cooking skills were good, but he always felt that the oyster mushrooms today were more delicious than usual, as if they were more tender.
He couldn't help but take another bite and tasted it. He still felt that the taste was better than usual. Not only was it more tender, but it was also more fragrant.
He also found that Jiang Shixun was very generous with the oil in the fried oyster mushrooms, unlike his family, who rarely fried the mushrooms in order to save oil.
Zhou Yong suddenly felt envious when he thought of this. Even though Jiang Shixun lived in the countryside and had a rural household registration, his life was much better than his.
It's impossible not to admire him!
"Brother Jiang, you really are capable!" Zhou Yong couldn't help but give Jiang Shixun a thumbs up, "You are this, brother, I am not as good as you!"
Jiang Shixun smiled modestly: "Comrade Zhou, you just took a sip of wine? You're drunk already?"
