Chapter 51 Missing a Wife
Although they were alone together, they were outside after all, so Chen Qiaoyi was a little restrained and Zhou Ziwen didn't get much advantage.
It's nothing more than touching little hands, hugging and kissing.
Even so, the girl's face turned red and she felt very shy.
Zhou Ziwen thinks fishing is a good activity.
Even if I don't catch any fish, it's still fun to be alone with my beautiful partner.
Chen Shiying had some guesses about the progress of the two.
But she was also helpless, because it was her sister who came to her door!
After trying to persuade her several times and finding that it didn't work, she stopped caring because she was afraid that saying too much would affect the relationship between the sisters.
However, she also set a bottom line for Chen Qiaoyi that could not be crossed.
Chen Qiaoyi also knows what is important and what is not, and knows that there are some things that cannot be done. She also sticks to the bottom line and does not let Zhou Ziwen succeed.
She also hopes to keep her complete self on her wedding day.
This made Zhou Ziwen feel a little painful.
He was young and full of vigor, and as a martial artist, he was full of energy and could hardly sleep at night.
The next morning, Zhou Ziwen woke up from his sleep and the first thing he did was to wash his pants.
"Luckily I slept alone, otherwise it would have been awkward."
Zhou Ziwen thought while washing his pants.
But if there was another person in the bed, he probably wouldn't wash his pants.
After all, it’s all because I don’t have a wife.
"Looks like I need to hurry up and get married this year."
After the pants were washed, Zhou Ziwen made up his mind.
Today's breakfast is not rich, only corn porridge and pickles.
"We have finished the food at home. I will go exchange some with the villagers after work." Chen Shiying said at the dinner table.
"Just find Aunt Li, she has a lot of dishes." Chen Qiaoyi sipped the porridge, licked her lips and said.
Chen Qiaoyi usually exchanges the vegetables for the family. This girl is well-behaved and sweet-spoken, and all the aunties and grandmas in the village like her.
"How do you feel today? Can you hold on?" Zhou Ziwen looked at Zhou Chaoyang and Shen Zhaodi. After a night of rest, the two finally recovered their spirits.
"It's okay. Although I'm a little tired, I can still hold on." Zhou Chaoyang said.
"My job is easier and not very tiring." Shen Zhaodi's physical fitness is better than the Chen sisters, and the work she does is different from when they went to the countryside, so she adapted quite quickly.
"Then keep going. Once you get used to life in the countryside, you won't be so tired anymore," said Zhou Ziwen.
"Well, I will adapt as soon as possible." Zhou Chaoyang nodded seriously.
Even a woman like Shen Zhaodi can adapt to it, so he can't be outdone.
After breakfast, the group came to the production team and started their respective work.
Zhou Ziwen still follows Master Chen to learn skills, but Master Chen values him very much and is willing to let him go, giving him plenty of opportunities to practice.
In this way, Zhou Ziwen's skills improved faster.
Zhou Ziwen has always been special in the production team.
After all, educated youth were always the focus of attention, not to mention that a wealthy educated youth like him had built his own house to live in.
In addition, he worked hard and diligently in the production team. For the same job, he did more work than others in the team, winning the favor of most of his fellow workers.
Coupled with the learning speed now demonstrated, this is even more surprising.
Many villagers looked at him with subtle respect.
After all, he is capable, rich, and an intellectual. All these factors combined make him a rather special person in the village.
There are many special people like this in the village, such as the stonemason Master Chen, the hunter Zhou Gang, the fisherman Uncle Niu...
Each of these people has his or her own unique strengths and areas of expertise.
Among these people, we now have to add Zhou Ziwen, a martial artist.
By the time he got off work at noon, Zhou Ziwen had gained a lot of skill proficiency.
【Bajiquan LV4 (313/400)】
Fishing Level 1 (42/100)
[Stonemason LV1 (11/100)]
Because I have been idle all the time, my proficiency in Bajiquan has increased very quickly. Now I have reached more than half of it, and I will be able to upgrade again in a few days.
The fishing and stonemason skills have been alternately idle, and the proficiency is not increasing very quickly. However, the level is still low, and the proficiency required is not much, but it is also improving steadily.
"Brother Ziwen, are you coming with me?"
After work, Chen Qiaoyi prepared to go to Aunt Li to exchange some dishes.
"Of course." Zhou Ziwen nodded with a smile.
"Hehe, I knew you were the best to me." Chen Qiaoyi immediately smiled happily.
"Then you guys should go quickly and come back soon. The family is waiting to cook the food!" Chen Shiying instructed.
"I understand, sister." Chen Qiaoyi waved her little hand.
Aunt Li was working like them. When Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi arrived at Aunt Li's house, she had just returned.
"Aunt Li, we're here to change dishes with you again." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"I figured you were coming by now. I happen to have some eggs at home. Would you like to trade them?" Aunt Li said enthusiastically.
During this period, Zhou Ziwen and his friends basically asked her to replace the dishes they ate.
Although the money earned is not much, it is enough to make people happy.
"There are eggs. Change them, of course!" Zhou Ziwen's eyes lit up, and the smell of fried eggs appeared in his mind.
The chickens in the village are all free-range chickens that grow up eating insects and grains.
The taste is even better than meat.
Aunt Li saved twenty eggs, which were a little cheaper than the supply and marketing cooperative, only 70 cents per pound. But if she took them to the supply and marketing cooperative to sell, the maximum she could get would be 68 cents.
But if you go to the county town to buy it, the price is about the same as pork, which is 78 cents.
So the villagers exchanged things with each other, and both sides made money.
Twenty eggs, no more, no less, exactly two pounds.
After exchanging the eggs, Aunt Li took them to the fields and picked some vegetables for them.
Vegetables are not expensive, you can buy a bunch for a few cents.
With Aunt Li’s warm farewell, Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi returned home with eggs and a lot of vegetables.
"Sister, look what we brought back!" Chen Qiaoyi shouted hurriedly as soon as she entered the door.
"What is it?" Chen Shiying was already used to her sister's behavior, and her face showed no expression.
"Dang, it's an egg." Chen Qiaoyi took out the egg hidden behind her back as if she was presenting a treasure.
"Hey, you got eggs." Chen Shiying was also very happy when she heard this.
"Yes, Aunt Li was originally planning to take it to the county town to sell it, but when she saw us there, she gave it to us." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"That's great." Chen Shiying showed a bright smile on her face.
Zhou Ziwen was dazzled by this smile and felt his heart beating faster.
The two sisters look exactly the same, but because of their different personalities, their temperaments are somewhat different.
The elder sister is quiet and the younger sister is lively, each of them is different.
"Let's each have a fried egg at noon! It can replenish our body's nutrition." Zhou Ziwen looked away and changed the subject awkwardly.
"This... okay!" Chen Shiying originally wanted to object, but when she thought about how everyone, including Shen Zhaodi, was not short of money, she agreed.
Anyway, we all eat together and share the food, so no one suffers.
