Niushan Village.
While Zhou Ziwen was busy cooking, Zhang Laosan's son also brought his new wife back.
Zhou Ziwen took a look and found that his new daughter-in-law Li Shufen was indeed pretty, with a kind of beautiful girl feeling.
He just looks a little thin and not cut out for work.
But it’s also because the Zhang family is well-off, otherwise, ordinary families would really be unwilling to marry her.
In the countryside, a woman with strong shoulders and waist and the strength to work makes a good wife.
This is not because people lack aesthetic sense, but because of the oppression of reality.
If you marry a capable wife, you can work in the fields and earn work points.
Marrying someone who is good-looking but cannot work will only become a burden to the family.
However, Zhang Laosan's family is well off, so it's no problem for him to support one person and feed him for free.
Look at Zhang Laosan’s smiling face, you can tell that he is quite satisfied with his daughter-in-law.
In the crowd, he saw Li Dazui coming.
When Li Dazui saw him, he came over to chat with him for a while.
When he first went to the countryside, he worked in the fields and had a good relationship with Li Dazui.
"It smells so good, Zhou Zhiqing. You must have learned this skill from those great chefs in the city! It smells so good, I know it's delicious just by the smell."
Li Dazui opened his mouth so wide that his saliva was almost dripping.
"It smells good, right? Then you can eat more later." Zhou Ziwen smiled without saying anything.
It is true that he learned his cooking skills from a great chef, but he learned them from those great chefs of later generations.
"Hehe, then you must eat more." Li Dazui smiled. He came here with an empty stomach today just to eat more delicious food.
"Li Dazui, where have you been? Come here quickly."
Just when Zhou Ziwen and Li Dazui were chatting happily, Li Laoleng's voice was heard.
"Hurry up, the bride is getting married." Zhou Ziwen reminded.
"Hehe, I'll go right away." Li Dazui grinned, and his mouth seemed even bigger.
"hehe!"
Zhou Ziwen smiled slightly, then lowered his head and continued to work.
The bride had come in and dinner would be served soon, so he had to speed up.
Fortunately, Zhang Laosan prepared several large pots, and by lighting the fire in several pots at the same time, the cooking speed was still very fast.
Steam what needs to be steamed, roast what needs to be roasted, and cook what needs to be cooked.
After more than an hour of busy work, when it was almost time for dinner, his dishes were finally ready.
The guests outside the yard were already waiting impatiently.
Seeing the delicious dishes being served, they felt even hungrier.
"Today is the wedding day of Zhang Zhixue and Li Shufen..."
"Everyone, enjoy your meal..."
As the last sentence fell, the guests who had been unable to wait immediately stretched out their chopsticks and aimed at the dishes they had been eyeing.
Plump braised pork, chunks of pork with preserved vegetables, fragrant stir-fried meat with pickled vegetables, fresh and tender fish with pickled vegetables...
The dishes are so delicious that you can’t wait to swallow your tongue.
Seeing the exaggerated expressions of his relatives and friends, Zhang Laosan laughed so hard that his teeth were invisible.
"Zhou Zhiqing, your cooking skills are better than those of the chefs in big restaurants. I am so lucky to invite you today." Zhang Laosan praised Zhou Ziwen repeatedly.
The reason why he agreed to let Zhou Ziwen come to cook was just to give Li Laoleng face.
He thought that since it was Li Laoleng who invited him, he would accept it as long as the cooking skills were not too bad.
After all, Li Laoleng is his relative, so he has to give him some face.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Ziwen's cooking skills were beyond expectations. He was also quite knowledgeable.
He had eaten almost all the delicious food in the county, but in terms of taste, none of them could compare to what Zhou Ziwen made.
"Haha, as long as Uncle Zhang is satisfied."
Zhou Ziwen smiled modestly in response to Zhang Laosan's praise.
"Please keep this red envelope. Thank you for hosting the banquet today. I will look for you next time I host one."
Zhang Laosan handed over a red envelope, which was his wages for today.
Zhou Ziwen was not polite and took the red envelope without opening it to check.
He believed that given Zhang Laosan's family conditions, the red envelope would definitely not be small.
After lunch, seeing that there was nothing for him to do here, he said hello to Zhang Laosan and left.
"Zhou Zhiqing, wait for me."
Hearing that Zhou Ziwen was about to leave, Zhang Laosan said something and then turned back to the house.
Soon, he came out of the house, but with an elbow on his hand.
"Zhou Zhiqing, take this pork elbow back and eat it."
"This, I..." Zhou Ziwen felt a little embarrassed looking at the big elbow.
"You're welcome. Just take it if I tell you to."
Zhang Laosan pretended to be dissatisfied and stuffed the elbow in his hand towards him.
"Well, thank you, Uncle Zhang." Zhou Ziwen hesitated for a moment, and seeing Zhang Laosan's dissatisfied look, he had no choice but to take it.
He felt that for someone as generous and magnanimous as Zhang Laosan, this name was not worthy of him.
Hanging Zhou Ziwen on the bicycle, Zhou Ziwen leisurely headed home.
He was lucky to have this meal today.
Not only did he get a red envelope, but he also got an extra pork elbow.
The key is that he had a delicious meal.
No wonder chef is a profession that everyone envies in this era.
You can eat and take things at the same time, so you will never go hungry.
After staggering along the way, Zhou Ziwen soon returned home.
He thought he would have a lot of free time in the afternoon, so he planned to go to the quarry to get some stones, then renovate the chicken coop and build a nest for the rabbits.
As a result, as soon as he got home, he saw Wu Dagang chatting with the Chen sisters, Shen Zhaodi, and Zhou Chaoyang in the house.
"Uncle Wu, why are you here? Have you eaten?" Zhou Ziwen asked with a smile, holding a pork elbow.
"Oh, that's great. Zhang Laosan is quite generous. He actually gave you an elbow." Wu Dagang joked with a smile.
Zhang Laosan is quite famous in this area, and Wu Dagang is also familiar with him.
"It's indeed generous." Zhou Ziwen nodded in agreement.
In this day and age, being able to directly give a pork elbow is indeed considered generous.
And this does not include the red envelope he gave.
On the way home, Zhou Ziwen opened it and saw a brand new Great Unity inside.
Giving ten dollars for cooking a meal is really generous.
"By the way, Uncle Wu, where are you coming?" Zhou Ziwen asked curiously.
Wu Dagang knows him quite well, and in fact, he also knows Wu Dagang well.
He wouldn't come if there was nothing going on.
"Didn't you get the health worker's work certificate? The health room here has been built, but you haven't seen it yet. I plan to take you to see it and give you the key as well." Wu Dagang said.
"The health center? I've never been there." Zhou Ziwen nodded, "Then let's go check it out!"
As a hygienist, he should also assume the responsibilities of a hygienist.
It just so happened that he was relatively free during this period, and he also wanted to improve his medical skills. It was like a sleepy person finding a pillow!
"Do you want to go together?" Zhou Ziwen asked, looking at the curious looks of the two sisters and Shen Zhaodi and others.
"I want to go."
"I'll go take a look too."
Shen Zhaodi and Chen Qiaoyi were restless, and as soon as Zhou Ziwen made the invitation, they nodded happily.
Although Chen Shiying didn't say anything, she stood up, her meaning was self-evident. (End of this chapter)
