"Brother Li, there's really no need to bring anything over. I didn't help much. If you want to thank someone, you should thank Grandma Shao!"
Zhou Ziwen blocked the door and prevented Li Lei from entering the house.
"Yes, Brother Li, please take the things back quickly. My sister-in-law just gave birth to a child, you have to take good care of her body!"
Chen Qiaoyi also advised from the side.
"I've already taken it, so there's no reason for me to take it back. Brother Ziwen, I won't say thank you. If you have any problems in the future, you must come to me. Although I don't have any other skills, I still have a lot of strength. If anyone in the village gives you trouble, I will help you beat him."
Li Lei didn't know how to thank Zhou Ziwen for saving his life, so he could only express it in the simplest way.
"Brother Li, I really can't take your things. These days, no one is rich. To be honest, my family has enough food. Hurry up and take it back first."
…
Braving the snow, Zhou Ziwen and Li Lei pushed and rejected each other, one insisted on giving it, and the other refused to accept it.
Li Lei was a stubborn man. Seeing that Zhou Ziwen refused to accept it, he put down the things without saying a word and turned around and left.
"Brother Ziwen, I left the things there. This is a little gift from our family. You must accept it."
"Oh..." Zhou Ziwen sighed as he watched Li Lei's back hurriedly running away.
This Brother Li is too polite.
He was embarrassed to accept all these big and small packages.
"Brother Ziwen, what should we do now?" Looking at the large and small bags of local specialties on the ground, Chen Qiaoyi didn't know what to do.
"Put it away first. We have some mutton at home. I'll send some to Brother Li later to nourish Sister Liu."
Zhou Ziwen felt it difficult to return the thank-you gift given by others. If he really returned it, people would think he looked down on them.
"Well, Sister Liu has worked hard, so let's send her more!" Chen Qiaoyi nodded her head.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Zhou Ziwen patted the snow off her hat and urged, "Okay, go in and rest first, don't catch a cold."
"Hehe, let me help you carry your things." Chen Qiaoyi giggled, picked up a bag of local specialties on the ground, and happily carried them into the house.
"This girl."
Looking at his wife's cheerful back, Zhou Ziwen shook his head with amusement and started moving things into the house.
Back in the house, Zhou Ziwen and the Chen sisters counted the things Li Lei had sent.
Li Lei sent quite a lot of things, including potato flour, sweet potato starch, sweet potato flour, flour, rice, eggs...
"This is too much stuff. I have to find a chance to return it later."
Looking at so many things on the ground, Zhou Ziwen was also a little worried.
He didn't expect Li Lei to be so honest.
Although he helped and I should be thanked, there is no need to give him so much!
These days, it’s not easy for anyone.
Fortunately, Zhou Ziwen is not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of others. It is not easy to return these things, but he can return them in another way.
For example, meat, some nourishing herbs, and even work-related items can provide some help.
It just so happens that the production team is planning to expand the mushroom house, so it won’t be difficult to get a spot then.
Keeping the favor in mind, Zhou Ziwen stopped caring about it and let the Chen sisters accept the gifts without worry.
After returning to the house, he found a piece of mutton and walked towards Li Lei's house.
As soon as he arrived at Li Lei's home, he received a warm welcome from the whole family. Even Sister Liu, who had just given birth, was ready to stand up and thank him for saving her life.
Zhou Ziwen hurriedly tried to stop her. Sister Liu was still very weak at the moment and couldn't stand the cold. If she didn't take good care of herself and didn't take good care of herself after the confinement period, there would be sequelae.
Zhou Ziwen didn't stay long at Li Lei's house. He chatted with them for a few words, put down the mutton and left, ignoring Li Lei's attempt to stop him.
He learned this from Li Lei and put it into practice immediately.
When I got home, Chen Shiying and Chen Qiaoyi had just prepared dinner.
Chen Qiaoyi is also working hard to be a qualified daughter-in-law.
Although her cooking skills are much worse than her sister's, she can still cook.
Since her sister cooked most of the time, she had some free time.
But after marrying Zhou Ziwen, she decided to practice her cooking skills so that if she returned to the city and visited Zhou Ziwen's house in the future, she could show off in front of her parents-in-law.
Seeing her sister so diligent, Chen Shiying was also happy to see her success. In fact, it was Chen Qiaoyi who made today's meal, and she just gave guidance from the side.
"Brother Ziwen, how does it taste? Is it unpalatable?" Chen Qiaoyi asked nervously.
Zhou Ziwen is a very good cook and is quite picky about food, so she was afraid that Brother Ziwen would not be satisfied.
"Haha, it's okay, but a little salty. I didn't stir-fry it evenly, and it was a little late..."
Zhou Ziwen chuckled and pointed out the shortcomings.
In front of his wife, he naturally would not speak against his conscience.
Pointing out her shortcomings is also to encourage her to improve next time.
It was the same when he treated Chen Shiying. The girl even enjoyed it and looked forward to his guidance.
"I knew it wasn't tasty." After hearing Zhou Ziwen's story, Chen Qiaoyi kept these shortcomings in mind, but couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
"Although the taste is a little bit worse, it's still okay, Yiyi. I think you have a talent for cooking, but you just don't practice often. You just need to practice more in the future." Zhou Ziwen comforted.
"Really?"
Now, Chen Qiaoyi's worry turned into joy.
"Of course it's true." Zhou Ziwen nodded affirmatively.
"Hehe, then I'll practice more." Chen Qiaoyi giggled and became happy instantly.
This girl has a very good attitude. Even if she has any troubles, she will forget them in a blink of an eye and will be happy again soon.
Zhou Ziwen likes her personality. She is a natural optimist and is happy every day.
When you get along with her, the mood of people around you will also improve. She is like a mentality regulator.
On the side, Chen Shiying looked at the two of them with a smile, and she was in a good mood.
The two people in front of her, one is her sister, and the other is the person she loves deeply.
Both of them are very important to her. Her only worry is how to explain her relationship with Zhou Ziwen to her sister.
But she was not too worried about this. Just like Zhou Ziwen knew Chen Qiaoyi, she also knew her sister very well, even better than Zhou Ziwen.
She knew that even if her sister knew about her and Zhou Ziwen, she would eventually choose to accept it.
Maybe they would even be happy to see it happen.
After all, the two of them have been inseparable since childhood. If they both follow Zhou Ziwen, they can stay together for the rest of their lives.
But deep down, she still felt a little guilty. After all, she had stolen her sister's man.
…
After dinner, Zhou Ziwen chatted with the two sisters for a while.
When the time was almost up, he took his wife back to his room.
After the daily hustle and bustle, when his wife fell into a deep sleep, he moved to the next room and started hustling again.
Although it was a bit troublesome to go back and forth like this, he enjoyed it and even wanted to do more of it.
Of course, it would be even better if we could sleep in the same quilt.
The next day, Zhou Ziwen got up from bed feeling refreshed.
The snow was still falling outside, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow.
Looking up at the sky, it was all white and I couldn't see far at all.
"Looks like I have to stay home today."
Seeing the sky outside, Zhou Ziwen pondered to himself. (End of this chapter)
