In the ginseng field, Zhou Ziwen carefully pulled out the weeds in the field one by one, just like everyone looking for trouble.
These weeds are very nasty and will compete with ginseng for nutrients. Zhou Ziwen has zero tolerance for them.
By the time he was done with the ginseng business, the Chen sisters at home had already prepared the meal.
"Yaoyao, is your house ready? When will the beams be installed?"
While eating, Zhou Ziwen asked.
"Uncle Wu said that the day after tomorrow is a good day and asked me to go to bed on that day."
Tang Yaoyao ate the steamed buns like a little hamster, and her words were a little unclear.
"The day after tomorrow is indeed a good day, and the day after tomorrow will also be the day after tomorrow when the daughter of the first captain gets married."
Zhou Ziwen nodded and said.
“Brother Ziwen can’t have dinner with us anymore?”
Hearing this, Tang Yaoyao was instantly disappointed.
"It's okay, just treat me to another meal tonight."
Zhou Ziwen shook his head indifferently.
He had promised Wang Hongbing before, and he would definitely not break the promise.
“That’s all.”
Tang Yaoyao was not an unreasonable person. She knew that Zhou Ziwen had serious business. Although she was a little disappointed, she could understand.
After lunch, he took a rest as usual. When it was time to start work, Zhou Ziwen slowly got up from the kang.
After washing his face, Zhou Ziwen continued his great work of digging wells.
As he went in and out of the well, the well became deeper and deeper.
By the time the work was about to end, the well was almost ten meters deep.
"There's something going on."
Zhou Ziwen rubbed the soil on the ground and felt the humidity.
The soil at the bottom of the well is completely different from the ground.
From his perspective, I'm afraid he won't be able to get out of the water after hitting twenty meters.
Next, Zhou Ziwen was very motivated and waited until the two sisters came home before he stopped.
Slow work will produce fine work, and there is no need to rush when digging a well.
If it’s late, it’ll be late. It’s not in a hurry anyway.
"Ziwen, take a break! We'll do the rest tomorrow."
The two sisters advised them immediately after they came back.
“Okay!”
Zhou Ziwen nodded calmly, "I'll clean up the yard and then rest."
After digging for a long time, there was a lot of soil piled up in the yard. Before it gets dark, I will clean it out first.
Carrying a basket, I met Zhou Chaoyang as soon as I went out.
"Brother Zhou, do you need help?"
Zhou Chaoyang asked enthusiastically.
"Forget it, just go about your business. I'll finish it in a moment."
Zhou Ziwen shook his head.
Forget it if you ask him to help, it’s just a favor for nothing, and you can’t do any work.
If you have this time, you might as well do it yourself.
I got the dirt out of the yard in a few moments, and then it was time to rest.
There were two sisters busy in the kitchen, and Tang Yaoyao was chattering beside them. It was unclear whether they were helping or joining in the fun.
He was in a daze until Chen Qiaoyi called him to eat.
After dinner, Zhou Ziwen rested for a while, then took a bath and went to bed.
Early the next morning, Zhou Ziwen woke up to the sound of the radio.
After exercising in the yard for a while, just as he was about to wash up, Chen Qiaoyi ran in from the outside in a hurry, screaming as he ran.
"Brother Ziwen, come and see, the chickens have broken their shells and they seem to be coming out."
Hearing this, Zhou Ziwen felt relieved.
He thought his wife was frightened by something.
"Don't worry, take me to have a look."
Zhou Ziwen's calm voice came, which made Chen Qiaoyi feel calmer.
"Brother Ziwen, hurry up, I can see them picking the eggshells with their mouths."
Chen Qiaoyi held his hand, with a nervous expression on her face.
"Don't worry, it will take several hours for the chickens to break out of their shells. It's still early!" Zhou Ziwen said calmly.
“Ah, does it take so long? Then I can’t wait for them to break out of their shells?”
Chen Qiaoyi was a little disappointed.
"It's okay, I'm here! You can see them when you come back from work at noon."
Zhou Ziwen rubbed her head to comfort her.
"Brother Zhou, what's going on? Are the chickens you hatched coming out?"
At this time, Zhou Chaoyang's voice came over.
Obviously, they were all alarmed by Chen Qiaoyi's scream.
“Yes, it seems to be coming out of its shell.”
Zhou Ziwen replied.
"So fast? I'll go and have a look too."
Hearing this, Zhou Chaoyang suddenly became interested. He had never seen a chick break out of its shell!
"Brother Ziwen, I want to see it too."
Tang Yaoyao also ran out of the room happily.
The chickens hatched, which was a relatively novel thing for them. When Zhou Ziwen and the others came to the backyard, Shen Zhaodi and Chen Shiying also followed.
Obviously, everyone wants to see with their own eyes how these chicks break out of their shells.
When we came to the backyard, several chickens were pecking on the ground.
Even the hen that was hatching the chicks left the henhouse.
In the chicken coop, ten white eggs were sitting neatly there.
A group of people came to the chicken coop and stared at the eggs without blinking.
Zhou Ziwen's sharp eyes saw that several of the eggs had their shells slightly broken.
If you look carefully, you can also find the chick inside pecking at the shell.
"It's moving, it's moving, look, this egg is moving."
Chen Qiaoyi pointed at one of the eggs excitedly, with an expression like a child showing off a beloved toy.
“Well, I saw it.”
Zhou Ziwen smiled and nodded.
“Brother Ziwen, when do you think these chickens will break out of their shells?”
Tang Yaoyao asked curiously.
"It's early! It looks like it will take at least two or three hours."
Zhou Ziwen estimated the time.
“Ah, it will take so long!”
Hearing this, several girls were a little disappointed.
"Soon, soon."
Zhou Ziwen replied with a smile.
A group of people watched for a while around the egg that was trying to break its shell, chattering non-stop.
“Okay, chickens don’t break out of their shells so quickly, let’s eat first so as not to delay work.”
Seeing that everyone’s excitement had not passed, Zhou Ziwen had to speak. interrupt.
"Okay!"
Although the women were a little disappointed, they were obedient.
Under Zhou Ziwen's persuasion, they reluctantly returned home.
After eating, Chen Qiaoyi and Tang Yaoyao took another look.
Just for a while, the hole pecked by the chicken expanded a little.
When it was time to start work, Zhou Ziwen and the Chen sisters came to the production team's grain drying field together.
During the meeting, the captain announced a happy event. The cowshed and pigsty in the village had been repaired.
In order to prevent another collapse, the cowshed and pigsty were built particularly firmly this time.
It won’t be broken for at least a few decades.
What happened this time is also a wake-up call for everyone.
The captain emphasized that safety must be paid attention to, especially for those houses that have been in disrepair for a long time. Don't be reluctant to spend money on repairs that need to be repaired.
In fact, it doesn’t cost much to repair a house, but some people are reluctant to do so.
For these people, Secretary Wu will come to greet them one by one.
With Wu Dagang taking action, I believe the village members will still give him face. (End of this chapter)
