Era: Winning since educated youth went to the countryside

Chapter 138 Grilled Fish
"Brother Zhou, are you back from fishing so soon?"

As soon as Zhou Ziwen returned home, he met Zhou Chaoyang and Shen Zhaodi who were coming out of the yard to collect firewood.

"I caught a big one, but I'm afraid I won't be able to finish it, so I won't catch it anymore." Zhou Ziwen said in a calm tone that he deserved a beating.

"Big fish, how big it is!" At this time, Chen Qiaoyi also ran from the house to watch the excitement.

"Look!" Zhou Ziwen put the bucket on the ground.

"It's so big, it must weigh at least three kilograms!"

Zhou Chaoyang and Shen Zhaodi looked at the big guy in the bucket in surprise.

"Let me see what kind of fish it is!" After hearing this, Chen Qiaoyi ran over in a hurry.

"grass carp."

“Grass carp is delicious too!”

"Grass carp is suitable for grilled fish. Today I will show you my skills. I guarantee that you will swallow all your tongues." Zhou Ziwen said.

"Hey, it's rare for Brother Zhou to cook again. It seems we are in for a treat."

When they heard that Zhou Ziwen was going to cook, Shen Zhaodi and Zhou Chaoyang's eyes lit up.

In fact, Zhou Ziwen's cooking skills are only slightly better than Chen Shiying's, but he knows too many cuisines and is willing to add seasonings, so everyone thinks his dishes are delicious.

"Well, the food cooked by brother Ziwen is more delicious than that cooked by sister." Chen Qiaoyi looked at Zhou Ziwen with admiration, not worried at all about being overheard by her sister.

If Chen Shiying heard this, she would probably feel that this sister was raised in vain.

"Okay, you go and do your work. I'll go and clean up the fish." Zhou Ziwen waved his hand to tell them to stop surrounding him.

It's still early for dinner, but Zhou Ziwen plans to process the fish first and then marinate it.

At night, the fish will be more delicious when grilled.

After returning to the house and putting away the fishing tools, Zhou Ziwen carried the grass carp to the river.

Since I said I was going to show off my skills today, I must show some skills.

When he finished killing the fish, he marinated the fish first. The ingredients were all ready-made.

Apart from anything else, Chen Shiying is quite particular about cooking.

As long as the seasonings can be bought in the market, she has prepared them.

There were even some spices that were hard to buy in the market, but Zhou Ziwen picked them for her from the mountains.

After marinating the fish, Zhou Ziwen returned to his yard. Suddenly, he realized that there seemed to be nothing to do.

After thinking about it, he left home and went to the mushroom house construction site.

Today he went to the county seat, but he hasn't gone to the mushroom house yet.

As the leader of the mushroom group, although his time is free, he cannot go too far.

For work within the scope of your job, you still need to pay attention.

Moreover, the mushroom house was in the final stage, so he had to keep an eye on it.

When he arrived at the mushroom house, it was almost completed, except for the beams and roof tiles.

"Xiao Zhou is here. Come and see how this house is built? Is there anything that needs improvement?"

Master Chen was also at the scene. When he saw Zhou Ziwen arriving, he hurriedly called him to his side.

"Master is a veteran in building houses, so I don't have the right to speak here!" Zhou Ziwen complimented.

"Haha, I know how to pick up nice words. You are the leader of the mushroom team and an expert in this field. If you have any questions, please tell us in time." Master Chen laughed out loud at being praised, with a proud expression on his face.People have a face, and at his age, isn't it just to save face?

Zhou Ziwen was his apprentice, and he was so respectful to him, which could be said to have given him enough face.

"No problem, I'm watching!" Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.

In the past few days, although he did not stay here often, he often paid attention to their progress. If there were any problems, he would have raised them long ago.

In fact, this mushroom house is not very attractive. It is just built thicker than other houses and the materials used are better.

Not to mention, the production team really attaches great importance to mushroom houses. All buildings are made of high-quality large bluestones. There are not many such stones in the entire village.

Zhou Ziwen estimates that after the mushroom house is completed, it will not change much even decades later. Maybe it will become a major attraction in Dabazi Village by then.

After staying at the mushroom house construction site for a while, Master Chen quietly told him that the mushroom house could actually be completed today, but Wu Dagang and the others looked at the almanac and said that tomorrow was a good day, so they changed the beam loading time to tomorrow.

Zhou Ziwen expressed his understanding of this.

This is not superstition, but people's expectation for a better life.

Just like during the Chinese New Year, setting off firecrackers for nearby Bodhisattvas is also a kind of inner comfort.

Seeing that there was nothing going on in the mushroom house, Zhou Ziwen said hello to Master Chen and returned to his yard leisurely.

After he came back, he didn't plan to go out. He just lay on the bed and read the recipes he bought from the county town.

Reading recipes is much more interesting than reading the barefoot doctor's manual.

Moreover, he has read the book "The Barefoot Doctor's Manual" several times. In the future, by hanging up, he can absorb the knowledge in the book naturally, and there is no need to memorize it at all.

It’s much more interesting to read the recipe. The vivid descriptions in it make people drool without even realizing it.

When he read this book, it mainly talked about Sichuan cuisine, such as the famous Mapo tofu, twice-cooked pork, fish-flavored shredded pork, etc., all of which are very delicious.

Shen Zhaodi is from Sichuan Province. She can cook some of these dishes, but she only knows the names of some.

If he learns the knowledge in this book, Zhou Ziwen can also cook authentic Sichuan cuisine.

The time of reading passed quickly. Before Zhou Ziwen finished reading the recipe, Chen Qiaoyi came to him excitedly.

"Let's go, I'll make delicious food for you today." Zhou Ziwen put down the recipe and pinched Chen Qiaoyi's face in a funny way.

This girl is always greedy when she encounters delicious food, and now she is urging him to cook.

"Hehe, okay!" Chen Qiaoyi held his palm and smiled happily.

But this girl paid attention to the impact, and when she went out, she let go of her hand.

Arriving at Shen Zhaodi's house, Zhou Ziwen started to get busy.

Shen Zhaodi and Chen Shiying were busy in the kitchen, while Zhou Ziwen and Zhou Chaoyang were busy outside the yard. Only the girl Chen Qiaoyi was wandering around the kitchen for a while, and then ran to the yard for a look. She was very leisurely.

She was justifiably lazy. According to her, her cooking skills were not as good as those of Shen Zhaodi and Chen Shiying, let alone Zhou Ziwen. She was pretty good if she didn't cause trouble, let alone help.

Zhou Chaoyang is in trouble. Although he can't cook, he has learned how to make fire. No, now that Zhou Ziwen is grilling fish outside, he has become a firemaker.

However, as the aroma of grilled fish spread, Zhou Chaoyang no longer felt the bitterness at all.

Just smelling the aroma of grilled fish made him feel that it was worth it no matter how hard and tiring it was.

"The grilled fish smells so good, Brother Ziwen, why didn't you bake it for me before?" Chen Qiaoyi sniffed and asked coquettishly.

"I haven't encountered such a big fish before!" Zhou Ziwen explained in a funny way, "If you want to eat it, I will cook it for you every day from now on."
