224. Chapter 224: Being a Guest



"You also want to go to the mountains?" Zhou Ziwen was stunned. He looked at Zhou Chaoyang's small body and was a little bit unbelieving.

There is no joke in the deep mountains. If you are unlucky, you may encounter wild beasts like wild wolves and wild boars, and you might end up providing them with food.

"Hehe, Brother Zhou is here, I just want to go and see him." Zhou Chaoyang smiled and said with a flattering face.

"Okay, let's all go!" Looking at Chen Jia Xiaomei and Shen Zhaodi who were eager to try, Zhou Ziwen waved his hand and asked everyone to go together.

With his strength, he is certainly not afraid of encountering danger. Even if he brings a few people in with him, he can protect their safety.

Of course, the premise is not to go too deep.

"Great, let's go up the mountain!" Chen Qiaoyi cheered, her eyes curved into crescent shapes.

After chatting and laughing, everyone returned home.

After more than a day of pickling, the pickles made by the Chen sisters were almost done.

It was still early, so they took out the pickles and washed them to remove the bitter taste.

After cleaning, it needs to be dried in the sun. After a certain amount of water is dried, it can be seasoned and then stored for a few days before being eaten.

Zhou Ziwen is not needed for these things; the Chen sisters and Shen Zhaodi are enough.

Since he had nothing to do anyway, Zhou Ziwen packed up his fishing gear and went to the river to fish.

It just so happened that all the fish at home had been eaten, so he had to stock up.

It would be great if I could catch more crucian carp and send them to Uncle Wu.

Crucian carp soup is very nutritious. Sending fresh fish is much better than sending salted fish.

Zhou Ziwen came to the river and started to make a nest and then cast the hook to fish.

Ta Yun jumped around him left and right, wagging his tail, like a silly dog.

After looking through the skills on the auto-play panel, he found that his fishing skills had also greatly improved.

Fishing Level 3 (258/300)

After reaching level three, he rarely played AFK. To be able to reach this level now, his practice was really indispensable.

Every time he goes fishing, he will keep his skills idle and perform actual operations while fishing, which will help him improve his skill proficiency faster.

Adding the two together, my fishing skills are about to be upgraded.

His fishing skills are at level three, close to level four, so he is pretty good at it.

After fishing for a while, the float moved. Zhou Ziwen was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He pulled up the fishing rod and caught a crucian carp weighing two taels.

"What a good start!" Although it was just a small fish, Zhou Ziwen was still very happy.

When it comes to fishing, what you enjoy is the joy of harvest, especially the moment when you catch a fish. That excitement is addictive.

Perhaps it was almost time to bait the fish. After opening the bait, Zhou Ziwen began to catch fish one after another. Although they were all small fish, small fish are also meat!

If it is used to make soup, the fish must be fresh and tender.

Not long after they started fishing, the Chen sisters also finished their work.

Knowing that Zhou Ziwen was fishing, Chen's younger sister ran over with brisk steps.

"Brother Ziwen, how many fish did you catch?" After approaching, the little sister of the Chen family smiled cutely with her eyebrows curved.

"It's quite a lot, look." Seeing the girl's sweet smile, Zhou Ziwen felt healed and his mood became cheerful.

"So many?" Chen's younger sister came closer to take a look curiously, and immediately there was a cry of surprise.

"Ha ha!"

With a girl by his side, Zhou Ziwen felt more motivated when fishing.

The afternoon passed quickly, and until it was almost time to get off work, Zhou Ziwen packed up his fishing rod and went home with Chen Qiaoyi.

We had a good harvest this afternoon. The total weight of fish, big and small, is about four or five kilograms. Unfortunately, they are all small fish. The largest grass carp weighs only about one kilogram.

"Just keep it for now! As long as it doesn't die, that's fine."

Zhou Ziwen decided to raise one first, and when he had time, he would dig a pond nearby and raise these smaller fish.

I'll pick up some breeding skills by the time the time comes.

Husbandry skills, including the cultivation and propagation of plants and animals.

Including raising poultry and livestock, aquaculture and special breeding.

However, this skill belongs to a large category and requires a high level of proficiency, so Zhou Ziwen has never mastered it.

He thought that he could develop this skill when more idle slots were opened.

At that time, raising some crayfish or something like that can make the food at home more abundant.

After returning home, Zhou Ziwen selected a few larger crucian carps and prepared to send them to Uncle Wu later.

"Yiyi, go call your sister. Let's go to Uncle Wu's house before dinner." Zhou Ziwen said.

You can't come to the door during meal times, that's the rule.

Unless you want to eat for free, you usually wait until after dinner to go.

However, Zhou Ziwen wanted to deliver the crucian carp so that Uncle Wu could have it for dinner in the evening, so he came to the house before dinner.

"Okay." Chen Qiaoyi agreed and turned to call Chen Shiying.

After a while, Chen Qiaoyi brought Chen Shiying to the door.

Seeing this, Zhou Ziwen did not delay and set off with his two sisters, carrying a few crucian carps.

Along the way, we also met some villagers who had just finished work and were returning home.

When they saw Zhou Ziwen, they greeted him warmly.

"Zhou Zhiqing, where are you going?"

"Zhou Zhiqing, where did you catch this fish? It's really big."

Zhou Ziwen also replied with a smile.

Taking the Chen sisters with me, of course I couldn't avoid being teased along the way.

Fortunately, neither Zhou Ziwen nor the Chen sisters cared.

Zhou Ziwen is thick-skinned and doesn't care at all.

The Chen sisters were somewhat used to it. It was common in the village. They liked to make fun of unmarried girls.

As for those who are married, that is another story.

Uncle Wu’s house was not far away, and we arrived at our destination in a short while.

When they arrived, Uncle Wu and Aunt Chen had just finished work.

"Xiao Zhou, Xiao Chen, Da Chen, why are you here? Come in and sit down."

Aunt Chen was very happy to see them and warmly welcomed them into the house.

"I caught some fish in the river today. I picked a few and brought them here to give to Uncle Wu to nourish his body." Zhou Ziwen raised the fish in his hand.

"You kid, just come and play, why do you need a gift?" Aunt Chen was a little dissatisfied.

"I caught them all myself. It didn't cost any money." Zhou Ziwen didn't care about Aunt Chen's expression.

He went straight into the house, took a bucket and put the fish in it.

"Forget it this time, but don't do this again next time!" Aunt Chen said with a stern face.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Zhou Ziwen agreed, but he didn't care in his heart.

It's just him. If it were someone else, whether it was Aunt Chen or Wu Dagang, they would not accept things easily.

No matter what, Wu Dagang is also a village cadre.

After receiving the things, my mood changed.

Of course, this is actually very normal in the countryside, and generally no one cares about it.

It's just that Wu Dagang is very concerned about this and doesn't want people to talk about it. (End of this chapter)
