Nearing evening, Zhou Ziwen and his team members moved all the grain from the fields to the threshing ground, completing the final work of the autumn harvest.
After the autumn harvest, their work was basically done.
All that remains is to dry the grain and then store it in storage.
But Zhou Ziwen and the others don’t need these.
He and the members of the mushroom group will return to the mushroom growing base to work.
However, Zhou Ziwen was just about to discuss with Wu Dagang when the mushroom group's planting base would be closed for the holiday.
There are quite a lot of mushroom varieties grown at the mushroom cultivation base.
Some mushrooms have a long cultivation cycle and require human care.
But Zhou Ziwen is still planning to go home to visit his family.
He has been in the countryside for almost a year and wants to go home.
Of course, what is more important is to let the family meet their daughter-in-law and siblings.
However, if he wants to go home, he must first arrange things at the mushroom cultivation base.
After moving the grain to the threshing ground, Zhou Ziwen and the members of the Mushroom Group dispersed.
It was about to get dark, and Zhou Ziwen was a little hungry, so he wanted to go back and eat.
Zhou Ziwen quickened his pace and walked towards home.
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the country road, and his shadow was stretched out long.
When they got home, Chen Shiying and Chen Qiaoyi had already prepared dinner. Several home-cooked dishes were spread on the table, the aroma of which whetted their appetites.
"You're back. Go wash your hands and have dinner." Chen Shiying greeted Zhou Ziwen gently when she saw him enter the room.
Zhou Ziwen washed his hands and sat at the dining table. Looking at the table full of dishes, he felt warm in his heart: "Thank you for your hard work, you made so many delicious dishes."
As Chen Qiaoyi served Zhou Ziwen some rice, she asked, "Brother Ziwen, is the autumn harvest over? What are your plans next?"
Zhou Ziwen took the bowl and nodded. "Yes, the autumn harvest is over. I'm going to discuss with Uncle Wu when the mushroom cultivation base will close for the holiday. I plan to go home to visit my family and take you back to meet them."
After hearing this, Chen Shiying and Chen Qiaoyi's eyes flashed with anticipation.
They are all Zhou Ziwen's women, and Zhou Ziwen's family is their family.
Especially Chen Qiaoyi, she has been pregnant for several months and has not met her parents-in-law yet. She also wants to get the approval of Zhou Ziwen's family.
Of course, if they have time, they also want to go back to their own home.
Their mother hasn’t even met her son-in-law yet!
"Brother Ziwen, when can we go back?" Chen Qiaoyi asked expectantly.
"After the grain is delivered in a few days, the village will distribute the grain. I plan to leave after the grain is distributed."
Zhou Ziwen answered.
"It's only a few days away, we can prepare some things first." Chen Shiying said.
This time I go home, I will definitely stay for a while, and there are a lot of things I need to prepare.
"Well, there's still a lot of meat in the cellar. I'll go to the city in a few days and send everything out. Then we can travel light and it will be convenient for us to return."
Zhou Ziwen nodded and said.
After discussing going home for a while, they talked about the Mid-Autumn Festival tomorrow.
"Tomorrow is Mid-Autumn Festival, we have to celebrate it properly."
Chen Qiaoyi's face was filled with a joyful smile.
"Yes, Mid-Autumn Festival is a festival of reunion, and our family should celebrate it happily." Chen Shiying also nodded.
Zhou Ziwen smiled and said, "Mid-Autumn Festival is definitely about appreciating the moon. I think we can make a sumptuous dinner together, eat some mooncakes, and admire the moon."
Chen Qiaoyi said excitedly: "Okay, okay, I want to eat mooncakes, with salted egg filling and meat filling."
Zhou Ziwen nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go to the county tomorrow and buy some pork."
Chen Qiaoyi said, "Brother Ziwen, do you think we should invite Shen Zhaodi, Zhou Chaoyang and the others to celebrate the festival together?"
Zhou Ziwen thought about it and said, "Sure, it will be more lively if we all celebrate together."
…
The next morning, Zhou Ziwen woke up early from the kang.
The first thing Zhou Ziwen did when he woke up was to open the auto-play panel and take a look as usual.
[Fishing Level 9] (8/900)
After looking at the panel, he found that his fishing skill had reached level nine.
A lot of knowledge about fishing also appeared in his mind.
Level nine fishing allowed his fishing skills to reach a superb level.
Not only can you innovate and improve your fishing techniques, but you can also develop unique bait recipes.
Fish can be caught even in extreme environments or difficult conditions.
He was confident that with his level of skill, he could catch anything in the water.
After feeling the insights and knowledge in his mind for a while, and finally figuring out what was going on, he happily closed the idle panel.
With his current level of fishing skills, he can be called a big shot in the fishing world.
When he arrived in the yard, Zhou Ziwen performed a set of Xingyiquan.
Speaking of which, his Xingyiquan is about to be upgraded.
【Xingyiquan LV6】(571/600)
With the support of max-level Bajiquan, Wuqinxi and Taijiquan, he can quickly improve his skill proficiency in any boxing style he practices.
The same is true when you are idle. Other skills improve by one point per hour, but Xingyiquan improves faster, by five or six points per hour.
After exercising, Zhou Ziwen went to the kitchen with the two sisters to cook.
The production team's broadcast did not start before dawn today.
Now that the autumn harvest is over, everyone basically has nothing to do.
However, the two sisters still have to continue working at the mushroom cultivation base.
Zhou Ziwen plans to go to the county town to buy meat later to make mooncake fillings.
After I come back, I will go to Wu Dagang to discuss the mushroom cultivation base.
Under his management, the mushroom cultivation base has been on the right track.
Moreover, the temperature will soon drop lower and lower, and after the first snow falls, the mushroom growing base will no longer be suitable for growing mushrooms.
Those semi-finished products that are still growing also need to be well insulated to avoid being frozen to death.
He had to arrange all these things in advance, otherwise the mushrooms here would not die by the time he returned to visit his family.
After breakfast, the village radio sounded and Wu Dagang's voice was heard from it.
"Attention all villagers, attention all villagers, please gather at the threshing ground. I have something to announce."
After hearing the broadcast, Zhou Ziwen and the Chen sisters quickly finished their breakfast and went to the threshing ground together.
On the way, they met other villagers. They were also heading to the threshing ground, their faces filled with joy and relief after the autumn harvest.
Wu Dagang and Zhou Weiguo were already waiting in the threshing ground.
Seeing that most people had arrived, Wu Dagang cleared his throat and began to speak: "Comrades, thanks to everyone's joint efforts, we have successfully completed this year's autumn harvest. I would like to thank everyone for their hard work and dedication."
The villagers applauded enthusiastically. Wu Dagang raised his hand for silence and continued, "After the autumn harvest, we'll dry the grain and store it in storage. This work will be handled by the village's permanent staff. The other villagers can take a break." (End of chapter)
