The turtledove looks very similar to a pigeon, so it's no wonder that Chen Qiaoyi mistook it for a pigeon.
"Brother Ziwen, is turtledove delicious?"
Chen Qiaoyi asked greedily.
"certainly."
Zhou Ziwen nodded.
Of course, the taste of turtledove alone is not very good. Many books have described the taste of turtledove as bitter and salty. In other words, it tastes bitter and salty.
According to traditional Chinese medicine, turtledove is sweet and neutral in nature, and can be used to nourish the kidneys, replenish qi, and improve eyesight.
To make it delicious, you need superb cooking skills.
Coincidentally, Zhou Ziwen is a very good cook.
It was rare to get a turtledove, and he didn't want to waste the food.
Make soup with turtledove and add some medicinal herbs such as red dates, wolfberry, and codonopsis to it, which can effectively neutralize the bitterness and saltiness of turtledove.
But there is definitely not much time during the day, so I can only wait until I get home from work in the evening.
It just so happens that today is Shen Zhaodi's birthday, so I made some soup for her to celebrate.
After releasing the turtledoves, Zhou Ziwen had breakfast with his two sisters.
Because I was delayed in the ginseng field for a while, I came back a little late.
They had just finished breakfast when it was time to go to work.
Without time to wash the dishes, Zhou Ziwen and his two sisters hurried out.
By the time they gathered at the threshing ground, almost all the villagers were there.
The morning meeting was still the same old stuff. After receiving the daily encouragement from the team leader, Zhou Ziwen also came to the construction site of the mushroom cultivation base.
Wu Dagang is not here today.
He went to discuss road construction with the team leader.
This matter involves the commune and the six production teams under it. If we want to reach a result, it will not be completed in a short time.
After all, it is a cooperative road construction, and the number of people and money to be contributed, and which party will contribute more and which party will contribute less all need to be carefully considered.
But this time, there will definitely be more people in Dabazi Village.
After all, this highway is dominated by Dabazi Village, and seeing that Dabazi Village has become rich, it has to contribute a little more.
But Wu Dagang and the team leader would definitely not do this.
After all, they are not the only wealthy village.
Shatin Village and Sanjiaowan also have profitable industries.
If these two villages are not asked to pay a little more money, I'm afraid neither Wu Dagang nor the team leader will be willing to do so.
Zhou Ziwen doesn't need to worry too much about the construction site of the mushroom cultivation base.
With team leaders present, everyone is passionate about their work.
Even Zhou Ziwen was infected by their enthusiasm, and he lent a hand to everyone from time to time, and was busy and happy.
Busy times always pass quickly. Zhou Ziwen only realized that it was lunchtime before he could get off work.
By the time he returned home after chatting and laughing with the other members, Shen Zhaodi and Zhou Chaoyang had already returned from the county town.
"Brother Zhou, I've bought all the vegetable seeds and grape vines you wanted."
As soon as I got home, Shen Zhaodi ran over excitedly.
"Thank you, I'll give you whatever the price is."
Zhou Ziwen took the packets of seeds and a plastic bag containing five grown grape shoots.
Five grape branches are quite a lot. For this grape rack, when these grape branches grow up, they can cover the entire rack.
"Brother Zhou, forget it, it didn't cost much."
Shen Zhaodi hurriedly shook her head.
"That won't do. Friends are friends, but brothers have to settle accounts!"
Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"Why not? Zhou Chaoyang and I often come to your house for free meals. If you do what Brother Zhou said, we will be embarrassed to come for free meals in the future."
Shen Zhaodi opened her mouth to refute.
"Okay, then I won't give you any money. If you have such a good thing next time, remember to tell me in advance."
Zhou Ziwen is not a petty person.
Seeing that Shen Zhaodi had said so, he couldn't bring himself to talk about giving money anymore.
"That's right. When the grapes are grown, let me try some."
Hearing this, Shen Zhaodi nodded in satisfaction.
"Eat as much as you want. Eat it all."
Zhou Ziwen waved his hand generously.
"I dare not do that. If Sister Yiyi knew about this, she would tear me apart." Shen Zhaodi made a joke.
"What tore you apart?"
At this time, the Chen sisters also came back from work.
"Haha, you guys chat first, I'll plant the grapes first."
Zhou Ziwen placed the vegetable seeds on the stone table next to him, then took the grape stalks and prepared to plant them first.
Grapes are easy to grow, but you can't be careless about them.
He would feel at ease if he could plant the crops in the fields early.
After returning to the house to get the tools, Zhou Ziwen started working in the yard.
A few grape branches were planted quickly, then he tidied the vegetable garden and planted the seeds first.
By the time he finished his work, the two sisters had already prepared the meal.
"I'll clean up the turtledoves later and take them to Shen Zhaodi to stew. They don't have work this afternoon, so it's a good time for them to stay home and watch the fire."
While eating, Zhou Ziwen spoke.
"Okay, Brother Ziwen, go ahead and do it. I'll bring it over when you're done."
Chen Qiaoyi answered.
"OK."
Zhou Ziwen nodded.
"Brother Ziwen, Zhaodi bought a lot of vegetables today!"
Chen Qiaoyi began to share her intelligence.
"It seems she is still a wealthy woman!"
Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"Yes, her family is quite well off, and there are many people in the family, and she is the youngest one."
Chen Qiaoyi explained.
Zhou Ziwen was not very clear about Shen Zhaodi's family background, but Chen Qiaoyi had a good relationship with her and knew it very well.
We chatted and laughed and finished lunch quickly.
Zhou Ziwen didn't rest either. He took out the turtledoves, then boiled water in a pot. After working for a long time, he finally stewed the turtledoves.
"Yiyi, this turtledove is almost done, take it to Shen Zhaodi!"
After stewing, Zhou Ziwen clapped his hands and prepared to go back to the house to rest.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
Chen Qiaoyi agreed and walked to the kitchen with happy steps.
"Be careful, don't fall."
Seeing the girl's cheerful look, Zhou Ziwen couldn't help but give her some instructions.
"Hehe, it's okay."
Chen Qiaoyi nodded obediently, then carefully carried the pot out of the house.
"This girl."
Zhou Ziwen shook his head and ignored her.
When he returned to the bedroom, Chen Shiying came in after a while.
After entering the house, she did not rest, but took the cloth and started making clothes.
Zhou Ziwen had bought a lot of cloth before, and during this period, the girl was busy whenever she had free time. Now, a piece of clothing is almost finished.
However, the fabrics Zhou Ziwen bought were all brighter in color, suitable for girls to wear.
He has no shortage of clothes. His family would send him two sets from time to time, and he couldn't wear them all.
The two sisters, on the other hand, don't usually have many clothes.
Their family did send a lot of money, but it was all saved by the two sisters.
Zhou Ziwen didn't spend their money and let them save it for themselves.
After living in the countryside for so long, his life there has become stable.
There is no worry about food and clothing, and no shortage of money to spend.
There are even a lot of valuable herbs stored at home, which can be sold when needed to make some money. (End of this chapter)
