Chapter 46 Partnering Up
"Brother Zhou, how about you help me talk to Sister Chen and the others and let me have dinner with you?" Zhou Chaoyang looked at Zhou Ziwen ingratiatingly.
People who can't cook are so humble.
"This is a bit difficult!" Zhou Ziwen touched his chin. "If it's just a few days of sharing the house, I can talk to them about it, but you can't cook, so if it's a long-term plan, I'm afraid they won't agree."
Not to mention whether the Chen sisters would agree, he himself was not very willing to do so.
After all, everyone has possessiveness. He and the Chen sisters were getting along well together, so what was the big deal about a man suddenly joining in?
Moreover, when there are too many people, it’s okay if the time is short, but if it lasts for a long time, all kinds of conflicts will arise.
Even brothers may not get along well with each other, let alone people like them who are not related at all.
"Brother Zhou, please help me. I will live with you for a few days. Once the house is built, I will think of a solution." Zhou Chaoyang knew that his request was a bit excessive, but he knew his limits and just wanted to get through these few days first.
"If that's the case, it's easy to deal with." Hearing this, Zhou Ziwen breathed a sigh of relief and at the same time had a better impression of Zhou Chaoyang.
As his affection for her increased, Zhou Ziwen also came up with an idea for him, "I think you can discuss this with Shen Zhaodi. She can cook, right? As a girl, she's not suitable for some heavy work. You can partner up with her, she cooks, and you do the work. Isn't that perfect!"
In order to prevent Zhou Chaoyang from continuing to partner with him, Zhou Ziwen tried his best.
"This is a good idea!" Zhou Chaoyang's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Let's go. I'll take you to find Yiyi and the others first and see what they say." Zhou Ziwen said.
In fact, Zhou Ziwen can make the decision himself. I believe the Chen sisters will not have any objections.
However, Zhou Ziwen still decided to discuss it with the Chen sisters and ask for their opinions.
If they are unwilling, Zhou Ziwen will respect their opinions.
After all, people are close to each other. Chen Qiaoyi is his girlfriend, Chen Shiying is his sister-in-law, and Zhou Chaoyang is just a friend he just met. It is obvious who he should support.
When he arrived at the Chen sisters' home, Zhou Ziwen told the two sisters that Zhou Chaoyang wanted to eat with them.
"That's no problem, but you have to pay for the food and vegetables yourself. We exchange our vegetables with the villagers." Chen Shiying nodded in agreement without thinking too much.
Anyway, I have already agreed to live with Chen Zhaodi for the next few days, so Zhou Chaoyang is not a big deal.
"Thank you. Let me pay first!" Seeing that they agreed to let him share the meal, Zhou Chaoyang happily took out five dollars from his pocket and handed it to Chen Shiying.
"Then I'll take it first." Chen Shiying took the money and put it in her pocket.
Although five dollars is a bit much, it’s okay. Anyway, I can refund or pay back whatever is left when the time comes. When Zhou Chaoyang finishes building the house, I can refund whatever is left.
"Now that that's settled, I'm going to go fishing."
Zhou Ziwen said that since his fishing skill was upgraded to level one, he had not tried out the effect yet!
He happened to be free today, so he wanted to try out what was different from before.
"I want to go!" Chen Qiaoyi was the first to raise her hand.
"Can I go?" Shen Zhaodi looked at Zhou Ziwen curiously.
"Brother Zhou, I'm good at fishing! Choose me, choose me." Zhou Chaoyang was extremely active.
"Okay, then let's all go. But I don't have enough fishing rods, so I need to make a few more."
Zhou Ziwen had no objection, as it would be more lively with more people.
If you are lucky, you might be able to catch more fish.
Fortunately, I cut a few more bamboos in the mountains last time, otherwise it would not be enough.
After returning home, Zhou Ziwen made the remaining bamboos into fishing rods and took Chen Qiaoyi and others to the river.
Chen Shiying was the only one left at home.
She didn't have any complaints. In fact, she was not very interested in fishing. Her interest was cooking.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have such good cooking skills.
When Zhou Ziwen arrived at the river and started fishing, he felt something different.
"The water here is too clear. Let's go somewhere else."
Through the knowledge in his mind, Zhou Ziwen had a keen sense of where was suitable for fishing. Although this feeling was still a little vague, there was no problem in the general direction.
For example, by the river where they are now, because the flow is relatively slow and the ditch is relatively shallow, they generally do not encounter big fish.
No wonder when they were fishing that day, all they caught were small fish, not a single big one.
"Then where are we going?" Chen Qiaoyi asked.
"Let's go upstream. I remember the water is deeper there." Zhou Ziwen said after thinking for a while.
According to my memory, there is a deep ditch upstream, where big fish are more likely to appear.
Seeing Zhou Ziwen say this, no one else had any objections.
Zhou Chaoyang said he was good at it, but it was just talk. After all, living in the city, he had few opportunities to fish, and he was not a patient person.
Soon, the group of four changed places.
Because the ditch was quite deep, Zhou Ziwen specially changed the length of the fishing line.
Zhou Ziwen also used cornmeal to make a nest, and soon he had a harvest.
"Haha, it's actually a carp, what a good start!"
Zhou Ziwen said happily as he looked at the carp in his hand that kept fighting with him.
"It's so big!" Chen Qiaoyi exclaimed.
Of course it is big. This carp weighs at least half a catty. Although there are carps weighing two or three catties, for people like them who can only catch small fish, a fish weighing half a catty is already very big.
"That's great, Brother Zhou. You caught the fish so quickly." Zhou Chaoyang raised his eyebrows.
"Haha, let's compete to see who catches more." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
After reaching level one, fishing is indeed different.
Although it is only level one, I have officially entered the field and am no longer a layman who knows nothing.
Next, Zhou Ziwen made some gains and caught a grass carp weighing about one kilogram, which made him very happy.
"Oh, I'm so lucky today, Xiao Zhou, how come you didn't catch any fish?" Zhou Ziwen looked at Zhou Chaoyang proudly, and even called him Xiao Zhou.
"Don't be so proud. I'm just unlucky, not bad at skills." Zhou Chaoyang gritted his teeth, his face almost turning black.
"Yeah, I believe it." Zhou Ziwen nodded perfunctorily.
Zhou Chaoyang: “…”
"Okay, it's almost time. Dinner is probably ready at home. Let's go back!"
We caught a lot of fish today. Together, we caught at least three pounds, enough for them to have a meal.
They changed the fishing spot, but Chen Shiying didn't know yet. If they went back late, she would probably be worried.
"Are you going back now? Will we come back later?" Shen Zhaodi was a little reluctant.
Among them, apart from Zhou Ziwen, she is the one who fishes the most.
She hadn't been fishing for a long time, and now she felt addicted.
"I advise you to go to bed early, you have to go to work tomorrow!" Zhou Ziwen reminded.
"Yes, when we first came to the countryside, we were exhausted." Chen Qiaoyi also said.
