Chapter 274 Beef Bone and Mutton Soup



According to Zhou Ziwen's estimation, both the bedroom and the living room need to be covered with wooden boards.

Not only the walls, but also the ground needs to be covered with flooring.

This also makes cleaning easier.

Just mop it lightly and it will be clean.

This arrangement is much better than the current earthen walls and land.

In the countryside, mud houses are the most common.

In other words, Zhou Ziwen is quite popular in the village, otherwise others would say that he is poor but picky.

Fortunately, it only uses wooden boards and it doesn’t cost any money, otherwise he really wouldn’t dare to do it.

Although Zhou Ziwen's entry-level carpentry skills are not very high, what he has to do is not a difficult task.

After a little calculation, he knew the amount of wood he needed.

His current carpentry skill level was still too low, which didn't affect anything, but he still wanted to raise it a bit.

Moreover, wood cannot be used right after it is cut; it needs to be processed in some way.

Once he finishes it, his carpentry skills will be upgraded by one or two levels.

Then he can do some simple carving and add some decoration.

After some thought, Zhou Ziwen came out of the house and prepared to find something to do.

As the weather outside was getting colder, he decided to make a brazier.

In the village, most braziers are made of mud.

Those who live at home with better conditions will use porcelain basins.

Zhou Ziwen didn't want to spend money, so he planned to use his professional skills to make a stone basin.

At that time, we can make the stone basin thinner and it will still be durable.

Although it is snowing outside, it is not suitable to go out.

But Zhou Ziwen also has his own way.

When he was pressing oil before, he brought back a big stone from outside.

There is no need to press the oil now, but it can be used temporarily.

A stone basin doesn't require much stone, and there are plenty of quarries.

When he has free time, he will carry some back, as it will always be useful.

Zhou Ziwen took out the stonemason tools in the house and started hammering under the eaves.

He was already very familiar with the work of stonemasons.

Holding the chisel in his left hand and the hammer in his right hand, he always kept his eyes on where the chisel would land, while the hammer in his hand landed precisely on the chisel.

Hitting the chisel without looking at the hammer is what a qualified stonemason should do.

Not looking at the chisel or the stone is a higher level of technique.

Only a master stonemason can perform this blind typing skill.

In the village, Master Chen knew a little bit, but he could only type blindly for a short time.

It’s more like looking and typing a few times than blind typing.

This state is very close to becoming a master, and the only thing missing is a flash of inspiration.

Perhaps at some point, Master Chen suddenly understood, and then naturally became a master.

At this level, no matter what skill it is, it will be well-known not only in the surrounding villages, but also in the county town.

Someone might just mention a name and everyone would say:

"Hey, I know this person. It's So-and-so, the stoner..."

Those who are more informed can even tell the names of the other party's relatives.

In terms of boxing, Zhou Ziwen can also be considered a master.

However, he had been exposed to too little boxing.

Even Bajiquan has no fighting style.

However, the reason why a master is a master is that he has real skills. Learning by analogy is just a basic operation.

He had also seen some scattered moves through videos from his previous life.

Through the auto-play panel, all this knowledge has become his foundation.

However, Zhou Ziwen did not tell the village that he was a master of boxing, so no one knew about it yet.

In the village, everyone only knew that he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child and was very strong. Especially after he recently killed two wild boars, his family had a better understanding of how powerful he was.

The improvement in his boxing skills not only made his physical fitness stronger, but also made his ability to control his body more and more precise.

Compared with the visible improvement in physical fitness, the precise control ability is also very impressive.

For example, his ability to throw an axe is a derivative of his ability to precisely control it.

The same is true when hitting stones.

Through precise control of the body.

It allowed him to greatly improve his stonemasonry skills.

A piece of stone slowly changed its shape in his hand.

After a while, a relatively rough stone basin came out.

"Brother Ziwen, is this stone basin very hot?"

Not long after, Chen Qiaoyi finished her work and came over to accompany Zhou Ziwen.

"The stone basin conducts heat very slowly, so it won't be hot."

"Then I'll make a wooden handle and play around with it however you want."

He had already considered these issues, even more comprehensively than Chen Qiaoyi.

As a man, his innate sense of responsibility makes him think about these issues naturally.

"Brother Ziwen is really thoughtful." Chen Qiaoyi's eyes sparkled.

Zhou Ziwen felt very comfortable with that affectionate look.

"Have you finished your work?" Zhou Ziwen asked.

"It's almost done. The marrow in the beef bones has melted and the soup has turned milky white."

When talking about beef bone soup, Chen Qiaoyi swallowed her saliva and looked greedy.

"Let's stew some mutton later. I haven't had mutton soup for a long time." Zhou Ziwen said.

The mutton happened to be fresh.

I had mutton for lunch and beef hotpot at night, it was very comfortable.

"Great!" When Chen Qiaoyi heard that they were going to eat mutton, her eyes narrowed into crescent shapes with joy.

In this day and age, being able to eat meat is a very happy thing.

In other words, he came to the countryside. If he were in the city, even Zhou Ziwen would not be able to eat meat every meal.

It’s good if you can eat it twice a month.

This is also the reason why Zhou Ziwen is happy to stay in the countryside.

Because the countryside is sparsely populated and the land is vast, the place where they live is relatively remote, and even the nearest Youth League Institute is more than a hundred meters away.

If you eat meat behind closed doors, you generally won't be discovered.

Of course, if it is too fragrant and the smell spreads too far, there will be no way to stop it.

This is also the reason why people in the Youth League often curse.

Eating meat frequently is really hateful.

If you dare to do this in the city, you will probably get into a lot of trouble.

Zhou Ziwen hates trouble the most.

Zhou Ziwen doesn't need to worry about stewing the mutton.

Chen Qiaoyi went to the kitchen next door to explain what happened, and then it was Chen Shiying's turn to do it.

Mutton stewed with radish, with some pepper added to remove the fishy smell and enhance the flavor. If it weren't for the snow outside, the smell wouldn't have spread far. I guess the people in the Youth League would have cursed again.

I have to say that the taste of lamb stewed with beef bone soup is really good.

Anyway, from Zhou Ziwen's point of view, there is no problem.

Not long after the food was cooked, Chen Zhaodi from next door and Zhou Chaoyang from next door came over after smelling the aroma.

It was not until then that they realized that Zhou Ziwen had caught another prey.

"Brother Zhou, you are so awesome!" Shen Zhaodi was so envious that her mouth was watering.

"Haha, don't cook at noon, let's eat together!"

Zhou Ziwen is not a stingy person.

I like to share good things.

Of course, the only people he was willing to share with were Shen Zhaodi and Zhou Chaoyang, who were also educated youth.

Firstly, it is unavoidable, and secondly, our personalities are compatible, so there aren't any messy things going on.
