Chapter 187 Foot Soaking
Taking care of mushrooms is not hard. Compared with working in the sorghum field, taking care of mushrooms is almost like taking a rest.
After being tired for such a long time, there is nothing easier than watering the mushrooms and applying fertilizer.
When the off-duty time came, they also completed today’s training work.
After staying in the mushroom house for nearly an hour, everyone's physical strength has recovered a little. Although they are tired than usual, they are much more relaxed compared to those who harvest all day long.
Zhou Ziwen, if you say he uses his power for personal gain, it doesn't really count. After all, he is working in a serious job. The only difference is that the process is different.
Others are harvesting sorghum and soybeans. He is serving the mushrooms in the mushroom house. They all contribute to the collective, regardless of their position.
After returning home from work, Zhou Ziwen stayed in the Chen sisters’ kitchen to cook. The two sisters were also busy helping out.
One starts the fire, and the other helps Zhou Ziwen.
The three of them stayed in the kitchen talking and laughing, just like a real family.
The men and women are not tired from working together. With Zhou Ziwen joining in, the cooking speed has suddenly increased.
It felt like the food was on the table in no time.
Of course, there is also a reason why it is not necessary to make the staple food. In the morning, Chen Shiying made enough steamed buns at once, and only needed to heat them up at noon and evening.
Because of the high physical exertion, both Zhou Ziwen and the Chen sisters ate more than usual at night.
After eating, Zhou Ziwen stood up from the stool, "I'll go over and process the camellia seeds, and I'll leave the rest to you."
"Go ahead, Yiyi, and go help." Chen Shiying nodded.
"Okay." Chen Qiaoyi swallowed the last bite of steamed buns and stood up briskly.
"Yiyi, do you want to take a rest."
Back at his home with Yiyi, Zhou Ziwen pinched her ponytail and felt the smoothness of her hair.
This girl is naturally beautiful, and her black hair feels very comfortable to the touch.
"No need, I'm not tired." Chen Qiaoyi shook her head with a smile on her face.
"Okay, then help me peel the shells!" Zhou Ziwen nodded lightly, sat on the stone bench, and began to use a rolling pin to break the shells of the camellia seeds.
Chen Qiaoyi also sat next to him and began to pick out the camellia seeds after breaking their shells.
The two work together and complement each other.
Not long after, Chen Shiying, who had put away the dishes and chopsticks, came over to help.
The three of them worked together, and the speed increased again. Near evening, they finally finished processing all the camellia seeds.
“Thank you for your hard work, go back and rest quickly!” After cleaning up the battlefield, Zhou Ziwen stretched himself.
“Brother Ziwen, my legs hurt.”
After finishing his work, Chen Qiaoyi sat on the stone bench and rubbed his legs.
"Soak your feet. I'll rub them for you later. I'll make sure you're alive and well tomorrow." Zhou Ziwen rubbed her hair and said with some distress.
As an owner of the seventh-level Bajiquan, familiarity with the acupuncture points on the human body is a basic operation. After his massage, you only need to sleep at night and you will definitely be back as before when you wake up the next day.
"Hehe, thank you, Brother Ziwen." Chen Qiaoyi smiled and felt that the pain on his body was not that bad anymore.
Isn’t this the reason why you act coquettishly to him?
She has had close contact with Zhou Ziwen and knows his abilities well.
When she was tired before, it was Zhou Ziwen who massaged her.
"Sister, are your legs sore? Why don't you let Brother Ziwen give you a massage? His skills are very good." Turning around, Chen Qiaoyi suggested to her sister.
"No, I don't need to." Hearing this, Chen Shiying was rarely panicked.
She glared at her sister fiercely, blaming her for speaking out.
“Brother Ziwen’s massage skills are really good.” Chen Qiaoyi felt a little regretful.
Her feet are so painful today, and her sister is probably not much better. She also wants Brother Ziwen to massage her sister too!
"Enjoy yourself, I'll go back first." Chen Shiying didn't bother to teach her sister a lesson, so she turned around and left without even saying hello to Zhou Ziwen.
Maybe she was a little embarrassed because of what she just said! "Sister, what's wrong?" Seeing her sister like this, Chen Qiaoyi was a little confused.
This girl is very smart, but sometimes she is very stupid.
"Haha, let's soak our feet quickly!" Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
He did understand Chen Shiying's feelings.
After all, men and women are not intimately related. Strictly speaking, he and Chen Shiying have nothing to do with each other.
The only relationship is that he and Chen Qiaoyi are in a relationship. If they get married, they will be relatives.
Perhaps Chen Qiaoyi was too close to him, which made this girl ignore this point.
When he came to the kitchen, Zhou Ziwen started to light a fire and boil water.
The big iron pot at home can no longer be used, and the only way to boil water is to use the stew pot next to the big iron pot.
He hasn't used this pot much yet. At most, he just boils a little water and so on. It's very clean.
The large iron pot was used by him to make mushroom culture medium. Although he washed it clean, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
He plans to buy a pot when he goes to the county next time.
When I get married to Chen Qiaoyi, I will inevitably have to cook on the fire, and the things at home must be prepared in advance.
When boiling the water, Zhou Ziwen specially put some herbs into it. These herbs can relax the muscles and relieve fatigue.
After reading medical books for so long, his half-baked medical skills are still somewhat useful.
Although it cannot be used to treat diseases, it is still fine for soaking feet.
He doesn’t know much about the combination of medicinal materials. He just chooses some medicinal materials that have such effects based on their medicinal properties.
I don’t know how effective it is, but I think it is effective.
"Yiyi, go get a basin and bring one to your sister later. Running away will be good for your health." Zhou Ziwen said to Chen Qiaoyi.
"Okay, I'll get it right away." Chen Qiaoyi agreed and went out to her home.
When Chen Qiaoyi came back with the basin, Zhou Ziwen's foot bath water was also boiled.
However, there was not much water in the pot, so when Chen Shiying was given a pot of water, they only had one pot left.
“Come on, Yiyi, let’s go clubbing together!”
When Chen Qiaoyi came back from the next door, Zhou Ziwen smiled and waved to her.
“Shall we have a swim together?” Chen Qiaoyi was a little surprised.
She thought she was alone!
“Of course, I want to wash my feet too!” Zhou Ziwen said matter-of-factly.
“Oh, okay!” Chen Qiaoyi was a little shy.
She has never soaked her feet with a man!
“Haha.” Zhou Ziwen looked at the girl funny.
She has done everything she should and should not do, but this girl is still so shy.
“Come on.”
When she took off her shoes, Zhou Ziwen began to urge her.
"Ah, it's so hot!"
In order to achieve better results, the basin of water Zhou Ziwen filled was only mixed with a little cold water, and the temperature was at least 80 degrees or above.
Chen Qiaoyi's white and tender feet can't stand such a high temperature.
"Take your time." Zhou Ziwen's feet were soaked in the water, and even his feet were red from the heat.
But being burned at such a high temperature is very enjoyable.
