Today we are going to prepare a banquet for Zou Xuemin's brother-in-law. After breakfast, Zhou Ziwen tidied up a little, packed up the necessary tools and seasonings, and prepared to take them with him when he went.
Seeing that it was still early, Zhou Ziwen said hello to the two sisters and then went out to the health center.
Yesterday's ointment hasn't been finished yet, so he needs to go over and take care of it.
When we arrived at the clinic, Zhu Jianguo had already arrived early.
"Ziwen, are you still making ointment today?"
Seeing Zhou Ziwen, Zhu Jianguo asked enthusiastically.
"Well, since there are not many patients these days, I will make some commonly used ointments first, which will be convenient when patients come in the future." Zhou Ziwen nodded.
"Let me help you." Zhu Jianguo said hurriedly.
"Okay!" Zhou Ziwen agreed readily.
Free labor is certainly nice, and it also saves some time.
For the next two hours, Zhu Jianguo began to get busy under the guidance of Zhou Ziwen.
Making ointment is not a difficult task. With Zhou Ziwen's guidance, Zhu Jianguo still made the ointment although he was a little unfamiliar with it.
After the ointment was ready, Zhou Ziwen reached out, picked up a little, put it under his nose and smelled it, with a satisfied expression on his face.
"The quality is pretty good, Brother Jianguo. I'll give these ointments to you. Keep them well. When someone comes to see you in the future, you can give them the ointments to try out their effects." Zhou Ziwen said.
"Okay, leave it to me!" Zhu Jianguo patted his chest, then carefully collected the ointment and sealed it in bottles, and put a label on each bottle.
Zhou Ziwen didn't make many ointments, and their usage was very simple, but Zhu Jianguo treated them like treasures. He carefully wrote down the usage and dosage of each ointment in a notebook to avoid being confused about their use later.
"Then I'll leave first. If you have anything, you can come to my house to find me." Zhou Ziwen nodded and stood up to leave.
"Well, go ahead, I'm here." Zhu Jianguo said hurriedly.
He had no objection to Zhou Ziwen's departure. One reason was that Zhou Ziwen's medical skills were so great that capable people had privileges.
In addition, Zhou Ziwen is only a nominal health worker, and the health center cannot restrict his freedom.
At the clinic, Zhou Ziwen can come and go as he pleases.
After a short rest on the way home, Zhou Ziwen took his tool kit and set out from home towards Xiaobazi Village.
Zou Xuemin's brother-in-law is from Xiaobazi Village, so his wedding banquet was naturally held in Xiaobazi Village.
Zhou Ziwen had been to Xiaobazi Village several times before and was quite familiar with it.
Following the address, Zhou Ziwen arrived at his destination.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Zou Xuemin busy greeting guests in the yard.
Seeing Zhou Ziwen, Zou Xuemin hurriedly came forward to greet him.
"Brother Ziwen is here, come in quickly."
"Brother Zou, I'm not late, am I?" Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"No, no, the new daughter-in-law hasn't been brought back yet, and it's still early for dinner!" Zou Xuemin shook his head.
"It's good that it's not too late. Take me to the kitchen first. I'll get ready."
After entering the house, Zhou Ziwen did not delay and prepared to do his business first.
As a chef, although he is a guest star, he also has his own professional ethics.
His job is to prepare a meal that satisfies the host. As for the rest, it has nothing to do with him.
"Okay, okay, I'll trouble you, Brother Ziwen."
Hearing this, Zou Xuemin nodded hurriedly.
"fine."
Zhou Ziwen waved his hand.
He finally figured it out.
Although Zou Xuemin’s brother-in-law is getting married today, it is his brother-in-law who is in charge.
This was not the first time Zhou Ziwen had seen such a situation, so he seemed very calm.
Coming to the kitchen, Zhou Ziwen counted the dishes that needed to be cooked.
Zou Xuemin's brother-in-law's family is not rich, and he doesn't cook many dishes. At most, he only needs to cook for two tables.
But the dishes are still quite rich, with eight dishes on the table.
With fish and meat, the scene can be held up.
Zhou Ziwen familiarized himself with the kitchen environment and then began to prepare the dishes.
In the kitchen, there were several aunts and grandmas helping him.
This way, he felt much more relaxed.
He doesn't have to do things like washing vegetables and making fire.
He just cut the vegetables, steamed the buns and cooked the dishes.
After estimating the time, Zou Xuemin waited for his brother-in-law to bring his new wife back, then he sped up his work and prepared the dishes quickly.
With his cooking skills, there will naturally be no problems.
Although there are only two meat dishes, in his hands, even vegetarian dishes can be cooked very deliciously.
You can see this by just looking at your friends and family who are eagerly waiting for your turn.
Looking at the expressions of these people, Zhou Ziwen was very satisfied.
Although he was paid for his work, it was a happy thing for him to have the dishes he cooked liked by everyone.
Moreover, some of these people might become his customers someday.
After all, everyone will encounter the problem of organizing a banquet.
Even if we don’t hold a banquet, after eating the food he cooked, we should at least help promote him!
Especially some aunties and grandmas, they are free publicity.
The meal was ready, and Zhou Ziwen had nothing to do next.
During the meal, Zhou Ziwen just ate here and then found an opportunity to say goodbye.
Before leaving, Zou Xuemin enthusiastically sent him to the village gate and quietly handed him a red envelope.
Zhou Ziwen felt the thickness of the red envelope, but didn't open it on the spot. He just put it in his pocket.
In fact, he could roughly estimate how many of these things there were. Although it might not be accurate, it was pretty close.
Today I am hosting a banquet for Zou Xuemin's brother-in-law. There are two tables of dishes. According to the market price, the least is one or two yuan, and the most is two or three yuan. The specific amount depends on the generosity of the host.
But even the lowest price is enough for Zhou Ziwen.
After all, it’s just cooking a meal and it won’t take much time.
After saying goodbye to Zou Xuemin, Zhou Ziwen rode his bicycle at lightning speed and soon returned to Dabazi Village.
On the way home, he would occasionally meet one or two villagers, and when they saw Zhou Ziwen, they would greet him enthusiastically.
Zhou Ziwen also responded.
He looked so familiar, as if he was originally from Dabazi Village.
When they returned home, the Chen sisters had already eaten.
Chen Shiying is picking soybeans with a winnowing basket.
There are a lot of stones and dirt particles mixed with the soybeans. After picking these out, the soybeans must be washed clean.
Chen Qiaoyi was not feeling well, so she was curled up on the kang, flipping through a book intermittently.
"Brother Ziwen, you're back!"
When she saw Zhou Ziwen, Chen Qiaoyi jumped up.
He looked so energetic, like a completely different person from before.
"Yeah, I'm back."
"You keep this money and see how much it is."
Zhou Ziwen nodded and handed over the red envelope in his pocket. (End of this chapter)
