Era: Winning since educated youth went to the countryside

Chapter 1186 Zhou Ziwen's Arrangement
Busy time always passes quickly, and it's time to get off work in the blink of an eye.

"Brother Zhou, I got some game. How about we go to your house for dinner today?"

Coming out of the factory, Zhou Chaoyang patted the package on the back seat of the bicycle and looked at Zhou Ziwen expectantly.

Zhou Ziwen smiled and joked: "You kid, you only know how to ask me for a free meal, okay, there are many people at home, it's lively."

"Chaoyang, what good stuff did you get?" Shen Zhaodi asked curiously.

"Hehe, these are some pheasants. I asked someone to get them from the mountains. They are absolutely fresh! I wanted to let everyone have a taste of them." Zhou Chaoyang said proudly.

"Wow, pheasant! We're in for a treat tonight." Shen Zhaodi's eyes lit up and she rubbed her hands excitedly.

Although they had eaten a lot of these wild game when they were in the countryside, now that they have returned to the city, these wild game have become a rare commodity.

As they talked, they got on their bicycles and headed home.

Along the way, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on them, casting long shadows.

Zhou Ziwen was riding a bicycle, and the breeze blew across his cheeks, bringing a hint of coolness.

He looked at Chen Shiying beside him, then at Zhou Chaoyang and Shen Zhaodi behind him, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

These people and these things seemed to bring him back to the unforgettable years when he went to the countryside.

At that time, they worked in the fields together, explored the mountains and forests, and shared each other's joys and sorrows. Although they have returned to the city now, their deep friendship has never changed.

"Shiying, are you tired today?" Zhou Ziwen asked with concern, his eyes falling on Chen Shiying's slightly tired face.

Chen Shiying smiled slightly and shook her head: "Not tired, there is not much to do in the factory today. But you guys have been busy all day, you must be hungry, right?"

Zhou Chaoyang interrupted, "That's right! My stomach has been growling for a long time, and I'm looking forward to tasting Brother Zhou's cooking as soon as possible."

Shen Zhaodi also agreed: "That's right, Brother Ziwen's cooking is really good. Today's pheasant will definitely be a delicacy."

Chen Shiying smiled softly and said, "Then stop talking and go home quickly. Yiyi must be busy in the kitchen."

Zhou Ziwen nodded, sped up his bicycle, and the group soon arrived at his yard.

As soon as I entered the door, I smelled a familiar aroma of food. It was the smell of home, the smell of warmth.

"Yiyi, we are back!" Zhou Ziwen shouted loudly.

Chen Qiaoyi poked her head out of the kitchen and saw everyone with a gentle smile on her face: "You are finally back. I was wondering if something happened on the way."

When Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan heard the sound, they ran out of the house like two happy little deer and hugged Zhou Ziwen's legs.

"Dad, you're back!" Little Yueyue said sweetly, looking up at her rosy face.

Xiao Xuanxuan curiously stared at the package on the back seat of Zhou Chaoyang's bicycle and asked, "Uncle Zhou, what delicious food did you bring?"

Zhou Chaoyang brought the package in with a smile and opened it to show the children: "Look, it's a pheasant. I'll let you taste it later."

"Wow, pheasant!" The two little guys jumped up excitedly.

Zhou Ziwen and Zhou Chaoyang took the pheasant to the kitchen, and Shen Zhaodi followed in to help.

"Yiyi, let me cook the pheasant. I guarantee everyone will be satisfied with the meal." Zhou Ziwen said confidently.

"Okay, I'll wait to taste your cooking skills." Chen Qiaoyi smiled and gave the kitchen to Zhou Ziwen. Zhou Ziwen handled the pheasant skillfully, while Shen Zhaodi helped pass the seasonings and assisted, and even joked with Zhou Ziwen from time to time.

Zhou Chaoyang played with the children in the living room, telling them interesting stories in the mountains, making the children laugh.

Chen Shiying was also busy helping Chen Qiaoyi set the table and tidy up the dishes.

After a while, an enticing aroma wafted from the kitchen.

The braised pheasant is out of the pot. It has a bright red color and a fragrant aroma, making people salivate at the sight of it.

Zhou Ziwen fried a few more home-cooked dishes, set the table full of food, and the family sat around it.

"Come, try the pheasant I made." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.

Everyone started eating. Xiao Yueyue and Xiao Xuanxuan ate ravenously, saying how delicious the food was.

"Well, the pheasant meat is firm and has a rich flavor. Brother Zhou, your cooking skills are getting better and better." Zhou Chaoyang gave a thumbs up and praised.

"Yes, Brother Ziwen's cooking skills are better than those of the chefs." Shen Zhaodi also nodded in praise.

Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying looked at everyone enjoying the meal and smiled happily on their faces.

At the dinner table, everyone was enjoying the delicious food and sharing the interesting things that happened in the factory today. Laughter and joy echoed in the house.

"By the way, Chaoyang, how are you and my little sister getting along now? When are you two planning to get married?"

Zhou Ziwen asked.

As Zhou Xiaomei's twin brother, Zhou Ziwen is very concerned about their affairs.

When Zhou Chaoyang heard this, a blush instantly appeared on his face. He scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly:

"We get along pretty well, but we haven't reached the stage of talking about marriage yet. Now that my work has just stabilized, I want to save more money and give my younger sister a stable home before considering marriage."

Shen Zhaodi joked, "Chaoyang, you better hold on tight. My little sister is so good. If someone else takes her away from you, you won't even have a place to cry!"

Everyone couldn't help laughing after hearing this. Zhou Chaoyang pretended to be angry and glared at Shen Zhaodi, saying, "Don't talk nonsense here, I know what's going on."

"You two are not young anymore, you need to hurry up!"

"Well, find a time to arrange a meeting between my parents and your parents, and quickly settle this matter."

Zhou Ziwen didn't care what Zhou Chaoyang thought and just decided the matter.

Zhou Chaoyang hesitated and said, "Brother Zhou, isn't this a bit too fast? I still want to prepare a little more."

Chen Qiaoyi also advised, "Chaoyang, Brother Ziwen is doing this for the good of both of you. Meeting your parents is a matter of time. The sooner you meet them and finalize things, the more at ease everyone will feel. Besides, you two have such a good relationship, maybe you can set a date for the wedding after meeting your parents."

Chen Shiying also nodded in agreement: "Yes, Chaoyang. Now everyone is thinking about your future, so don't worry too much."

Shen Zhaodi said with a smile: "That's right, Chaoyang, don't miss such a good opportunity. If you keep dragging it out, I will introduce someone better to me!"

Zhou Chaoyang smiled helplessly: "Zhao Di, please stop teasing me. Okay, Brother Zhou, Sister-in-law, I will listen to you and find a time to arrange a meeting between the parents of both sides."

Zhou Ziwen nodded with satisfaction: "That's right. Our two families know each other very well, and my parents like you very much, so this will definitely work out. If you and my little sister succeed, we will be a real family in the future."
