In the evening, Zhou Ziwen cooked an eel feast. A large plate of braised eel is bright red in color, each piece of eel meat is wrapped in a rich sauce, and is sprinkled with green onions and coriander, making it full of aroma.
There is also stir-fried eel shreds. The slender eel shreds are paired with green pepper shreds and red pepper shreds. The color is bright and the taste is fresh and smooth.
In the eel pot, the eel is simmered with various fungi and vegetables. The soup is thick and exudes a mellow aroma. The eel meat absorbs the deliciousness of the soup and melts in your mouth.
The cold eel is refreshing and delicious. Cut the eel meat into small pieces, add minced garlic, minced ginger, vinegar, soy sauce and other seasonings and mix well. The sour and spicy appetizer will greatly increase your appetite.
Zhou Chaoyang, Shen Zhaodi, and Tang Yaoyao also came tonight. A group of people gathered around the table, their faces filled with anticipation and joy.
Zhou Ziwen said with a smile: "Everyone, try it and see how my craftsmanship goes."
Zhou Chaoyang was the first to move his chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised eel and put it into his mouth. His eyes widened instantly. While chewing, he praised vaguely: "Wow, Brother Ziwen, this is so delicious! This braised eel is simply amazing." The meat is tender and the sauce is rich, so delicious!”
Not to be outdone, Shen Zhaodi picked up some fried shredded eel, gently put it into her mouth and tasted it slowly, then nodded and praised: "This stir-fried shredded eel is also great. The shredded eel is very tender. When paired with shredded green and red peppers, it's not only delicious." The color is beautiful and the taste is delicious. ”
Tang Yaoyao stretched her chopsticks towards the eel pot, scooped up a piece of eel meat and some vegetables filled with soup, put it into her mouth, closed her eyes with satisfaction, and said, "This eel pot is so delicious, the soup is rich. The eel meat melts in your mouth, and the fragrance of the vegetables is just right.”
When Zhou Ziwen heard everyone's praise, a warm current surged in his heart. He responded with a smile: "As long as you like it, eat more. Today is an eel feast specially prepared for everyone."
Chen Shiying also picked up a chopstick to eat the cold eel. After tasting it carefully, her eyes turned into crescents and she said with a smile: "Ziwen, your cold eel is really delicious. The hot and sour taste is just right for appetizers. It's perfect for eating in summer." .”
Everyone was chatting and laughing while tasting the delicious eel feast.
The topics ranged from the various methods of eel, to the work in the production team during the day, and to the future development of the village.
As the night deepens, the yard of Zhou Ziwen's house is filled with laughter and laughter.
The eel feast on the table not only made everyone enjoy themselves, but also became a bond of communication for everyone.
This eel feast made everyone enjoy eating and chatting happily.
After the meal, everyone puts away the dishes and cleans up together.
Shen Zhaodi and Tang Yaoyao were responsible for washing the dishes, while Chen Shiying helped wipe the table.
After cleaning up, everyone went home to rest.
As the night got darker, the lights in Zhou Ziwen's house gradually went out, leaving only the moonlight outside the window shining on the ground, adding a touch of tranquility and mystery to the night.
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Zhou Ziwen woke up from the kang refreshed.
It is worth mentioning that last night, his idle position was opened again.
As of now, his AFK slots have officially reached twenty-two.
With the opening of the twenty-two idle slots, Zhou Ziwen's skill improvement speed accelerated significantly.
He can feel his progress in all aspects every day, whether it is agricultural knowledge, machinery maintenance, or martial arts cultivation, they are all growing steadily.
In the early morning, Zhou Ziwen performed a set of Shaolin boxing in the yard. His movements were smoother and more powerful, and each punch and kick revealed deep inner strength.
He could feel that his martial arts skills were getting closer and closer to a new level with the help of hanging up.
After the boxing, Zhou Ziwen was sweating slightly. He stood in the yard, feeling the morning breeze blowing on his face, and felt particularly comfortable.
He walked into the house and saw that Chen Shiying had gotten up and was preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
There was steaming porridge in the pot on the stove, and there were cut steamed buns and some pickles on the chopping board.
Zhou Ziwen walked over and helped bring breakfast to the table in the yard. Chen Shiying saw Zhou Ziwen coming in and said with a smile: "Ziwen, you got up really early today. Go wash up and get ready for breakfast."
"Okay, I'll call Yiyi." Zhou Ziwen nodded.
When they came to the bedroom, Chen Qiaoyi and Xiao Yueyue were sleeping soundly.
Yesterday, little Yueyue was so excited when she saw the excitement at home that she went to bed very late at night.
Seeing them sleeping so soundly, Zhou Ziwen thought for a moment and didn't ask Chen Qiaoyi to get up.
Anyway, Chen Qiaoyi didn't have to go to work, so she left breakfast for her until she woke up.
Zhou Ziwen quietly exited the bedroom and closed the door so as not to disturb Chen Qiaoyi and Xiao Yueyue's sleep. When he returned to the kitchen, Chen Shiying had almost prepared breakfast.
"Shiying, Yiyi and little Yueyue are still sleeping, so I won't wake them up. Let's eat after they wake up." Zhou Ziwen said to Chen Shiying.
Chen Shiying nodded to express her understanding: "Okay, it was really late yesterday, let them sleep a little longer."
The two of them moved breakfast to the table in the yard. Zhou Ziwen sat down, picked up the porridge bowl, blew on the hot air on it, and then drank slowly.
The temperature of the porridge is just right, the rice grains are soft and glutinous, and it is paired with pickles. It is simple but full of home flavor.
"Shiying, you cooked the porridge very well today." Zhou Ziwen praised while eating.
Chen Shiying responded with a smile: "As long as you like to eat, I think you have been busy recently, so you need to take more."
The two of them ate breakfast quietly, enjoying the tranquility of the morning.
Sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves into the yard, forming mottled light and shadow.
The birds sang happily on the branches, and everything was so harmonious and beautiful.
After breakfast, they went out to work.
When passing by the Educated Youth Institute, they met the educated youth who were also gathering.
However, these educated youths are not in a good mood.
The old educated youth are okay, they have accepted the reality, but the new educated youth are not.
They had just gone to the countryside, and they thought there would be some vigorous career waiting for them, but they did not expect to be assigned to a chicken farm on the first day, which filled their hearts with disparity and dissatisfaction.
Zhou Ziwen looked at the dejected looks of these new educated youths and felt some sympathy in his heart.
These young people were finally hit by reality.
"Ziwen, look at these new educated youths, all of them have no energy." Chen Shiying said softly.
Zhou Ziwen nodded: "Yes, they need time to adapt. Wasn't it the same when we first came here?"
Chen Shiying recalled the scene when she first arrived and smiled: "That's right, time will let them understand."
The two walked while chatting, and soon arrived at the grain drying field outside the production team.
After the morning meeting here, Zhou Ziwen followed Chen Shiying to a mushroom planting base.
Although he is no longer needed in the mushroom cultivation base, he is the leader of the mushroom team after all, and he still needs to understand the cultivation situation in the mushroom cultivation base. (End of chapter)
