Just after lunch, before Zhou Ziwen could rest, Zou Xuemin, who hadn't seen him yesterday, came to his house again.
Zou Xuemin's brother-in-law was getting married, and since he heard that Zou Xuemin was a good cook, he asked him to host the banquet.
Of course, there was no reason for Zhou Ziwen to refuse the opportunity to earn extra money.
Since the autumn harvest last year, he has also taken on quite a few banquets, which add up to dozens of yuan.
"Ziwen, I finally waited for you, you must help me this time!"
As soon as he saw Zhou Ziwen, Zou Xuemin excitedly shook his hand.
"Brother Zou, don't worry. I agreed to host the banquet." Zhou Ziwen was a little surprised.
It's just a banquet! Is there any need to get so excited?
Perhaps seeing what he was thinking, Zou Xuemin explained helplessly.
"It's my wife who insisted that I invite you over. If I can't, she won't cook for me."
"Ah?" Zhou Ziwen was stunned.
His eyes also became strange.
He didn't expect that the big brother in front of him was actually the legendary henpecked husband.
This situation is still rare in this era.
Generally speaking, men are the ones who make the decisions at home. In some families, women are not even allowed to sit at the table during meals.
From this we can also see that Zou Xuemin should have a good personality.
"My wife has only one younger brother in her family. She knows that you are a good cook, so she asked me to invite you so that her brother can marry his wife in a grand ceremony." Zou Xuemin didn't care about his look.
For him, perhaps he has long been accustomed to this kind of gaze.
"Thank you for the compliment, sister-in-law. When will the banquet be held so I can arrange the time." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
He is still very confident in his cooking skills.
During this period, he prepared banquets for many people, including some from nearby villages.
I have never had a bad opinion of the food he cooked.
In addition, the banquets he prepared were attended by a large number of relatives and friends, and word spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and his reputation became well-known.
"It's tomorrow, that's why I'm so anxious." said Zou Xuemin.
"Um."
Zhou Ziwen nodded, then roughly asked about the number of people and decided how many dishes to make.
Some dishes require special seasonings, and these seasonings are only available to professional chefs like them.
Ask clearly what dishes to cook so that he can prepare them in advance.
Zou Xuemin was the host of his brother-in-law's wedding, and he knew all about these things. It only took him a short while to discuss them with Zhou Ziwen.
As for why he became the host, there is no need to worry too much about it.
It's just that his wife is a Voldemort and likes to help his brother.
After Zou Xuemin left, Zhou Ziwen returned to the kang and prepared to take a nap.
As soon as he lay down, Chen Qiaoyi came over and curled up in his arms like a kitten.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Zhou Ziwen put his hand on her waist and comforted her gently.
"Brother Ziwen, my stomach hurts." Chen Qiaoyi wrinkled her nose and looked sad.
"Let me see."
Zhou Ziwen took her hand and took her pulse.
"You have dysmenorrhea!"
After taking the pulse, Zhou Ziwen frowned.
He remembered that this girl's menstrual cramps were not so severe. It seemed that the weather was too cold and she caught a cold.
"Yeah." Chen Qiaoyi nodded, and her voice sounded weak.
"I'll get you some hot water." Zhou Ziwen hurriedly got up, found a glass bottle in the house, and boiled some water.
After the water was boiled, he poured it into a glass bottle and wrapped it with a towel to make a simple thermos.
He remembered that this was how his mother kept him warm when he was afraid of the cold.
"Yiyi, here, warm yourself up first."
Zhou Ziwen put the thermos on Yiyi's belly and covered her with a blanket.
"Wait a minute, I'll get you some turmeric."
As a health worker, he naturally has ways to deal with dysmenorrhea.
But there is no turmeric at home, only in the health center.
Seeing Zhou Ziwen rushing to the clinic, Chen Shiying, who had just finished her work, felt a little envious.
Being taken care of by Zhou Ziwen like this made her feel like she was having menstrual cramps.
"Sister, what's wrong with you? Come to the kang quickly. It's warm there."
With the thermos, Chen Qiaoyi regained some spirit.
"After all, she is your biological daughter-in-law. Ziwen is so good to you." Chen Shiying said softly.
"Sister, what do you mean by being nice to me? Isn't Brother Ziwen nice to you? I've seen him teach you how to cook many times. He's so close to you. He treats you better than me, his wife!"
Although Chen Qiaoyi felt very sweet in her heart, in order to take care of her sister's emotions, she could only speak to comfort her.
After all, she is the wife that Brother Ziwen married in a formal ceremony, while her sister is not allowed to be seen in public.
Just thinking about this made her feel a little sad.
But as she was talking, she realized that Zhou Ziwen seemed to be very good to her sister. Did she need to comfort him?
Thinking of this, Chen Qiaoyi also stared at her sister quietly.
So, two identical faces showed the same expression, staring at each other.
Phew!
This glare made the two sisters burst into laughter at the same time.
On the other side, Zhou Ziwen came to the health room and saw Zhu Jianguo reading a book. However, from his sad face, it could be seen that the book was really ugly.
"Brother Jianguo, you're here so early?"
Zhou Ziwen greeted with a smile.
"Oh, studying medicine is so difficult." Zhu Jianguo sighed.
"Haha, take your time. Medicine is a profound subject that requires careful study. There's no use in being anxious." Zhou Ziwen consoled with a smile.
"Of course I know this, but..."
Having said that, Zhu Jianguo looked at Zhou Ziwen with envy.
It is true that studying medicine is difficult, but when Zhou Ziwen said this, he felt something was not right.
At least he had trained at the county hospital for half a month, but what about Zhou Ziwen? He taught himself without a single day of training, and most importantly, he passed the exam smoothly.
Who can he go to for justice?
The gap between people is really too big.
"Haha, okay, then you take your time to look at it, I'll get some medicine." Zhou Ziwen smiled and turned around to start busying himself.
Of course he knew what Zhu Jianguo meant, but he had no choice. Who told him to have an auto-switch panel?
Because his wife at home was still waiting to take medicine, Zhou Ziwen did not delay and left the clinic after taking the medicine.
Most of the medicines in the clinic were collected by him from the mountains, so there was no problem using them.
When he got home, Chen Qiaoyi was already drowsy and almost asleep.
Zhou Ziwen put the turmeric into the unused boiling water and continued to boil it for a while.
To suppress the bitterness, he also added a piece of brown sugar in it.
After the medicine took effect, he put it into a bowl and brought it to the bedroom for his wife to drink.
"Brother Ziwen, you are so nice."
Seeing Zhou Ziwen being so thoughtful, Chen Qiaoyi was deeply moved.
"Haha, drink it quickly. After you drink it and have a good sleep, the pain will go away." Zhou Ziwen stroked her hair. (End of this chapter)
