230. Chapter 230 Digging Sweet Potatoes



Zhou Ziwen found it a little funny to see the girl looking so worried.

It is normal for the ugly daughter-in-law to feel nervous when meeting her parents-in-law.

But we can’t see each other now, so why be nervous?

But you still have to comfort your own wife.

Zhou Ziwen took his girl's hand and returned to his home unknowingly.

When it comes to comfort, words alone are definitely not enough, concrete actions are needed.

You have to devote yourself to it wholeheartedly.

Zhou Ziwen is a professional when it comes to comforting people. With his comfort, Chen Qiaoyi finally realized that she is quite rare.

This can be seen from Zhou Ziwen's actions.

No words were spoken that night.

Without the disturbance of the village gong, Zhou Ziwen slept until he woke up naturally.

However, because of the habit I had developed over a long period of time, when I got up, the sky outside was still foggy.

Because of his high level of boxing skills, his physical fitness is very strong. He wakes up in the morning full of energy and can't fall asleep after waking up.

Seeing this, Zhou Ziwen didn't hesitate, got up, went to the yard and started practicing his fists and feet.

Next door, the Chen sisters didn't sleep in either and were both up.

Zhou Ziwen had sharp ears and could hear their voices.

Although he couldn't hear clearly, it proved that his five senses were becoming more sensitive.

According to his estimation, after Bajiquan is upgraded again, his five senses will be elevated to another level.

"Brother Ziwen, the old hen at home doesn't lay eggs anymore?"

Zhou Ziwen had just been playing in the yard for a while and was about to go out when Chen Qiaoyi came in from outside with a pout on her face.

"It must be because the weather is cold. Let's see tomorrow. If it doesn't lay eggs, just stew it." Zhou Ziwen comforted.

The weather is getting colder now. After the autumn harvest, winter is getting closer. The temperature may drop at any time. Once it snows, it will be even colder.

"Hehe, great!" Chen Qiaoyi's eyes lit up. If the old hen really didn't lay eggs, then she would have chicken soup to drink.

She doesn't have the idea that a cock is so cute that it cannot be killed and eaten.

Girls of this age, as long as they can eat meat, they would not even kill it, and they would even do it themselves.

While chatting and laughing, breakfast was ready for Chen Shiying.

Food was just distributed yesterday, so today's breakfast was very rich. Chen Shiying specially made some oil-splashed noodles and fried an egg for each person.

"Wow, sister, why are you so generous today?" Zhou Ziwen asked curiously.

"Hmph, it's you who bought so much wheat. I'll grind it into flour so you can eat as much as you want." Chen Shiying glared at him.

When Zhou Ziwen was buying food, she advised him once, but Zhou Ziwen didn't listen and insisted on buying it.

Besides, since she was the eldest sister-in-law and had not yet been officially promoted, she couldn't say much and had to let him do what he wanted.

"Hehe." Zhou Ziwen smiled and said nothing.

He will not compromise himself. If conditions permit, he will definitely satisfy his appetite first.

Although it cost a lot of money to buy food this time, it was only this time. Next year, the work points alone could be used to exchange for a year's worth of food, and even some money could be saved.

As the team leader, he would have received an extra portion when the food was distributed, otherwise he would not have been so generous as to share his mushroom-growing technology.

The production team wanted to learn his skills, and he taught them without reservation. He was not a selfless person, and if the village had not given them enough benefits, he would not have been so dedicated.

You know, just based on his mushroom growing skills, his annual income is almost equal to the total annual income of the production team.

"Ziwen, our pickles are almost done drying. You can season them later!" Chen Shiying said after breakfast.

Through communication with Shen Zhaodi, although she also knew how to make pickles, she had never tried it after all, so she felt a little unsure.

"Okay, I'll do it later." Zhou Ziwen nodded.

Since my sister-in-law asked me, I definitely couldn’t refuse.

After resting for a while, Zhou Ziwen made pickles with the Chen sisters.

Hearing the noise, Shen Zhaodi from next door also came over to help.

These pickles were made by several families together and will be divided into two portions, one for the Chen sisters and one for Shen Zhaodi.

The preliminary work for making pickles is almost done. Now you just need to add seasonings, adjust the taste, and then put it in a jar.

You can take it out and eat it after a few days.

Zhou Ziwen has a good control over the seasonings. Once the salt, ginger, wine, pepper, chili, garlic, soy sauce, sugar and other seasonings are added, the pickles are ready.

"It tastes very good, crispy and delicious." Chen Qiaoyi took a sip from the side and ate several pieces after the pickles were ready.

"The flavor isn't fully absorbed yet. It will taste better after being marinated for a few days." Zhou Ziwen looked at Chen Qiaoyi with amusement.

This girl sometimes acts like a child, of course, she is not that big.

"Brother Zhou's cooking skills are really good. I can't make it taste this way." Shen Zhaodi also praised.

"Haha." Zhou Ziwen smiled modestly.

His cooking skills are about to reach level five, so his skills will naturally get better and better.

With his current cooking skills, he would have no problem becoming a head chef in a state-owned restaurant.

But he has no interest in being a chef.

It’s better to do something more meaningful with this time.

"Brother Ziwen, are you going out later?" Chen Qiaoyi's eyes sparkled.

"Okay, I'll take Tayun to the sweet potato field later." Zhou Ziwen nodded.

The village distributed grain yesterday, and he went up the mountain again in the afternoon, which delayed him from digging sweet potatoes in the sweet potato field.

"I'll go with you." Chen Qiaoyi is the type of person who can't sit still.

As soon as he heard Zhou Ziwen was going out, he immediately spoke.

"Okay, let's go together! There should be some sweet potatoes left in the sweet potato field. We'll make a profit if we dig them up." Zhou Ziwen nodded with a smile.

"Let's go too." Shen Zhaodi and Zhou Chaoyang looked at each other and were also very interested in this.

"Let's go together, but whether you can dig it up depends on luck, so you have to be mentally prepared." Zhou Ziwen reminded.

In fact, he also relied on stepping on the cloud to dig sweet potatoes. If he were to dig them by himself, he probably wouldn't get much.

"It's okay, we're just going to give it a try. It doesn't matter if we can't dig it up." Zhou Chaoyang answered indifferently.

It’s different from when we were working. When we were working, we had to put in a lot of labor, but now, we dig for fun, and the mentality is different.

"Let's go." Zhou Ziwen waved his hand and went home to pick up his tools.

The Chen sisters, Shen Zhaodi and Zhou Chaoyang also brought their own tools.

Tayun ran around them happily, looking full of energy.

As soon as he arrived at the sweet potato field, Zhou Ziwen saw several villagers wandering around the field.

The production team was on holiday now, so everyone had some free time, especially since the autumn harvest had just passed and there were a lot of good things in the fields.

Some went to the wheat fields to pick wheat, some went to the sorghum fields to pick sorghum, and some went to the soybean fields to pick soybeans.

Anyway, as long as there is a place where food can be obtained, no one will miss it. (End of this chapter)
