When Zhou Ziwen came home, Zhou's mother was hanging clothes in the yard.
"Ziwen, did you go fishing?" Zhou Ma saw the fish bucket in his hand and asked.
"Yes, Mom, I caught a lot of fish, so we can have extra dinner in the evening." Zhou Ziwen said.
"Okay, Yiyi has a good appetite recently, so I'll give her a supplement." Zhou's mother said with a smile.
Zhou Ziwen put the fishing tools back into the house, then went to the kitchen to handle the fish first.
It will be dinner in a while. These fish need to be marinated first to make them taste better.

It will be dinner in a while. These fish need to be marinated first to make them taste better.
Zhou Ziwen skillfully slaughtered and cleaned the fish, and then marinated the fish with salt, cooking wine, onions, ginger, garlic and other seasonings.
After doing this, he walked out of the kitchen, and the eldest sister, the second sister and the younger sister just came back from outside talking and laughing.
"Eldest sister, second sister, and little sister, you are back." Zhou Ziwen greeted with a smile.
"Wow, brother, have you made the dressing table? It's so beautiful!"
As soon as she entered the door, Zhou Xiaomei's eyes were attracted by the dressing table in the room.
"Yes, little sister, do you like it?" Zhou Ziwen asked with a smile.
"I like it, I like it so much, brother, you are so kind!" Zhou Xiaomei ran to the dressing table excitedly and looked at it carefully.
The eldest sister Zhou Xiulan and the second sister Zhou Yaqin also came over, looked at the dressing table and praised: "Ziwen, this dressing table is really well made, it looks better than the ones sold outside."
"Haha, if you like it, I will make two more."
Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"That's great, Ziwen. The dressing tables you make are much better than those sold outside." The eldest sister Zhou Xiulan nodded with a smile.
"Yes, little brother, don't forget to make one for me too." Second sister Zhou Yaqin also said hurriedly.
It’s not that they are greedy, it’s mainly that the dressing table made by Zhou Ziwen is so beautiful that they can’t help but want one.
Besides, I made this myself anyway, so it didn’t cost much.
“Don’t worry, eldest sister and second sister, we will never forget you.” Zhou Ziwen agreed with a smile.
"Then I'll trouble you, little brother." A soft smile appeared on the face of the eldest sister Zhou Xiulan.
"Great, Ziwen, your craftsmanship is so good. I can count on you for any furniture I need at home in the future." The second sister Zhou Yaqin clapped her hands happily, with a satisfied smile on her face.
"No problem, whatever furniture the second sister wants, I will help you make it at any time. If you and Brother Qiang get married, I will pay for all the furniture for your wedding." Zhou Ziwen patted his chest, and the bag was big. Lan said.
His carpentry skills are almost at the max level, and making furniture is very simple for him.
"Really? That's great!" Second sister Zhou Yaqin's eyes lit up.
She didn't care at all about Zhou Ziwen's joking.
She is such a person, she dares to love and hate, and she has a good relationship with Zhou Ziwen, so how can she care about such a joke?
"Ziwen, with your skills, if you don't do anything else in the future, it would be good to open a furniture store." The eldest sister Zhou Xiulan also joked with a smile. "Haha, sister, you are really good at joking. How can I open a furniture store?" Zhou Ziwen smiled and waved his hand. Although he has this ability, he prefers a free life.
"Okay, okay, please stop teasing me." Zhou's mother walked in at this time. Seeing the children getting along in harmony, a happy smile appeared on her face, "Ziwen, fish treatment Are you ready? Let’s prepare dinner.”
Zhou Ziwen just said that he would cook the fish today.
Zhou’s mother also saw Zhou Ziwen’s cooking skills and knew that the food tasted better than her own, so she naturally felt at ease.
"Mom, it's all taken care of and it's ready to go." Zhou Ziwen replied.
"That's good, then go and get busy, don't let the fish become stale." Zhou's mother urged.
Zhou Ziwen nodded, turned back to the kitchen, and started cooking dinner.
He first coated the marinated fish in a thin layer of flour, then put it into the hot oil pan and fried it until golden brown on both sides.
Then he added the prepared sauce and let the fish simmer slowly in the pot until the fish absorbed the essence of the sauce and became extremely delicious.
As the aroma wafting from the kitchen became stronger and stronger, family members gradually gathered around the dining table.
Zhou Ziwen brought the braised fish to the table. Everyone couldn't help but swallowed when they looked at the attractive color and fragrant fish meat.
"Ziwen, your skills are really getting better and better. This fish is so delicious!" Dad Zhou took a bite and couldn't help but praise.
"Yes, Ziwen, your skills are enough to open a restaurant." The eldest sister Zhou Xiulan also agreed.
"Haha, I just cook whatever I want. As long as you like to eat, I'll be satisfied."
Zhou Ziwen said with a smile that he was still very confident in his cooking skills.
Having full cooking skills is no joke, even the emperor said it was delicious when he came.
Dad Zhou is becoming more and more satisfied with Zhou Ziwen.
Before going to the countryside, his youngest son could not lift his hands or shoulders, but now that he has not seen him for more than a year, he seems to be a completely different person.
Not only does he know medical skills, he treats officials and leaders, he also practices boxing, he also knows how to make furniture, and he can also fish to supplement the family income. When all of these items are taken into account, Zhou’s father is simply satisfied and satisfied with Zhou Ziwen. The pride is simply beyond words.
His son not only developed good skills in the countryside, but what is even more rare is that he still maintains his filial piety and family-oriented heart.
"Ziwen, you kid has really grown up and become more and more capable." Dad Zhou couldn't help but praise again, his eyes full of love and pride.
"Dad, this is what I should do. We are a family, so I naturally have to do more." Zhou Ziwen responded with a smile, his words revealing his deep feelings for the family.
"By the way, Xiulan, your mother said you are going on a blind date tomorrow, right?"
Dad Zhou asked with a smile.
He is the one who calls the shots in this family. Although he doesn’t talk much, he is the one who decides everything in the family.
Including the marriage of the eldest sister and the second sister, he has to make the first announcement.
"Yes, Dad." Zhou Xiulan nodded, with a hint of shyness on her face.
"That's good, you're not young anymore, it's time to consider personal issues." Dad Zhou said slowly, his tone revealing his concern for his daughter.
"Dad, I know, I will definitely take it seriously." Zhou Xiulan answered seriously.
"Well, that's good." Dad Zhou nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Zhou Ziwen, "Ziwen, you can go together tomorrow and help your sister take a look."
"Okay, dad." Zhou Ziwen agreed. He knew that Zhou's dad wanted him to help as a consultant.
"Then it's settled, you go together tomorrow." Dad Zhou made the decision. He can always make quick decisions about family matters. (End of this chapter)
