Seeing that it was still early, Zhou Ziwen strolled around the county town.
The environment in Lushan County is somewhat different from that in his hometown.
Although the streets in the county town are made of cement, other than the streets, the roads outside are basically dirt roads.
Various slogans are posted on the walls of the streets, showing the characteristics of this era.
There aren't many shops on the street, but what you need is still there.
As he walked around, Zhou Ziwen had a lot more things in his hands.
Two pounds of glutinous rice cake, a few canned fruits, as well as snow cream, Xie Fuchun osmanthus hair oil, Wan Zi Qian Hong moisturizing cream, etc.
These vanishing creams were bought specially for the two sisters.
When you come to the county town, you have to buy something to take back.
After a walk around, it was almost time.
Just as Zhou Ziwen was about to go back, he suddenly saw a place selling cloth.
He had heard Chen Shiying say before that she wanted to buy cloth to make clothes.
Chen Shiying is very good at sewing. Whether it is mending clothes or making cloth shoes, her skills are no worse than those of the aunts and grandmas.
Zhou Ziwen walked over and took a look. There were not many fabrics in it, including plain cotton, corduroy, and the most popular Dacron.
Zhou Ziwen didn't know much about fabrics, but he knew that Dacron was a good material.
After thinking about it, he took out some money and bought a few pieces of more elegant Dacron.
After buying the cloth, there is really nothing to do now.
Zhou Ziwen pushed his bicycle out of the city, jumped on his horse, and galloped all the way.
When he returned home, there was still some time before noon when he had to go to work.
While it was still early, Zhou Ziwen prepared to stew some meat.
All the fresh meat at home was eaten, and the salted meat that had been saved was also sent out. When I went to the cellar, I found that there were still two dried wild rabbits left at home.
The roasted rabbit we ate yesterday was a bit strong in taste, so Zhou Ziwen decided to make something lighter.
Clear-boiled rabbit meat is also a delicious delicacy.
The ingredients needed for clear-boiled rabbit meat are not many, just add ginger and green onions to enhance the flavor.
The air-dried rabbit meat has its own flavor, and that unique air-dried flavor is a delicacy in itself.
Zhou Ziwen took out the two wild rabbits and returned to the kitchen. He first cleaned the dried rabbits and then chopped them into small pieces.
After finishing all this, the water in the pot boiled, put the fish in the pot and add some Lao Baigan to remove the fishy smell.
After a while, the rabbit meat was put into the pot, and the rest was left to time.
Rabbit meat alone was definitely not enough, so Zhou Ziwen went to the yard to get some side dishes and took a few potatoes from the cellar, so that today's lunch was complete.
After washing the side dishes, shredding the potatoes and soaking them in water to prevent them from changing color, Zhou Ziwen also had some free time.
He came to the yard, made himself a cup of tea, then moved out the lounge chair and basked in the sun leisurely.
It was sunny outside. Although it was just the beginning of spring, the temperature outside was not very high, but for Zhou Ziwen's physique, this temperature was just right.
The sun in the sky shines on your face, making you feel lazy and listless.
A cool breeze blows, taking away the heat from your body.
The recliner was rocking, and soon Zhou Ziwen felt sleepy.
Just when he was dozing off, the announcement of the end of work suddenly sounded.
Zhou Ziwen opened his eyes, stretched, got up and went to the kitchen.
The rabbit meat in the pot has been stewed for a while and the flavor has already come out.
The unique aroma of the dried meat wafted out, making Zhou Ziwen feel a little hungry.
He added mushrooms and a few lighter herbs to the rabbit.
When you smell it, in addition to the fresh fragrance, there is also a faint medicinal fragrance.
Zhou Ziwen opened the pot and took a look, and found that the meat in the pot was cooked, and even the soup had turned milky white.
Seeing that the two sisters were coming back soon, Zhou Ziwen also started to get busy.
Take some firewood from the stove next to it, and put it on the stove of the big iron pot. After adding a few pieces of firewood, the pot began to heat up.
Heat oil in a pan and stir-fry over high heat.
After a few minutes, a dish of stir-fried bok choy is ready.
Just as he was about to continue frying the shredded potatoes, the Chen sisters had already returned.
"Brother Ziwen, have you prepared the dishes?"
Chen Qiaoyi's cheerful voice rang out.
"It's almost done. There's only one dish left. Once it's done, we can eat."
Zhou Ziwen answered while busy.
"Hehe, Brother Ziwen, you've worked hard."
Chen Qiaoyi's voice was full of happiness.
"Then you have to reward me well tonight."
Zhou Ziwen said casually.
“Hehe!”
Chen Qiaoyi wrinkled her cute nose and felt a little embarrassed to speak.
Beside them, Chen Shiying looked at the two of them with a smile.
My heart is filled with happiness.
One of them is her beloved man, and the other is her dear sister.
Although their relationship is somewhat shameful, Chen Shiying feels that being with her beloved is a very happy thing.
Even if she couldn't follow Zhou Ziwen legitimately in this life, she was willing to do so.
…
After chatting and laughing, it was soon time for dinner.
"Brother Ziwen, have you sent out all the meat at home?"
Chen Qiaoyi asked in surprise.
Zhou Ziwen nodded and said, "Yes, we have enough meat to eat, so I sent a little extra."
"Well, you can't send so much. There's not even a piece of meat left at home."
Chen Qiaoyi pouted, wanting to say something, but was afraid that Zhou Ziwen would misunderstand.
She knew that Zhou Ziwen always treated everyone equally, and this time when the meat was sent out, their mother and father would definitely be included.
"It's okay. I'm going to the mountains this afternoon. If I'm lucky, I might be able to get some good stuff."
Zhou Ziwen said indifferently.
In this day and age, everyone is short of meat to eat. Since he has this ability, he must take care of his family.
As for the saying that a daughter once married is like water spilled, he doesn't care at all.
In his heart, his daughter-in-law's parents are his parents.
He bullied his daughter, who was raised with great difficulty. What's wrong with being filial?
What's more, he ate two of them in one breath.
If his father-in-law and mother-in-law knew about this, they would probably chop him up with a knife.
Treat them better now so that they will suffer less in the future. This is called preparing for a rainy day and storing grain to prevent famine.
Considering that his father-in-law was suffering in the countryside and that it would not be easy for him as a scholar, he sent a little more meat.
"Ziwen, there's actually no need to send so much."
Chen Shiying also spoke.
"It's okay. Don't you know my abilities? Now that Tayun and Xiaobutian have grown up, hunting is easy for me with their help in finding prey."
Zhou Ziwen waved his hand indifferently.
It's just that he doesn't have much free time during this period, otherwise he would have gone hunting in the mountains a long time ago.
With his archery skills, it is no problem for him to hit the target within a hundred meters.
If you encounter large prey, it will be even easier. With boxing and gun skills, you will be invincible in the mountains.
"Thanks a lot."
Chen Shiying was a little touched. Zhou Ziwen had given so much for their family.
If Zhou Ziwen hadn't been there, she couldn't imagine what she would be like now. (End of this chapter)
