After weighing the old hen, Zhou Ziwen gave the money and chatted with Aunt Li for a few more words before leaving.

All the way home, Zhou Ziwen opened the courtyard door of the Chen sisters' house, went to the kitchen and started boiling water and killing chickens.

When the work was almost done, he took the tools to the outside of the yard and built a simple stove with stones.

According to rural saying, snake stew cannot be stewed at home. As for the reason, Zhou Ziwen is not very clear, but he just knows that it is not good to do so.

Although it is a bit superstitious, as the locals do, Zhou Ziwen is also prepared to stew outside.

It doesn’t take much effort anyway, even if it’s stewed outside.

After putting all the ingredients in the pot, Zhou Ziwen came outside and started to stew dragon and phoenix soup.

In fact, snake meat does not need to be cooked for long, but stewing old hens takes a long time.

Zhou Ziwen estimated that the chicken would not be ready yet when the Chen sisters came back from work.

After adding a few pieces of firewood, Zhou Ziwen was not ready to take care of it.

Anyway, this pot of dragon and phoenix soup will be simmering for a long time.

The longer it simmers, the more fragrant the soup will be. Let’s simmer it for a few hours first.

However, people are inseparable here, so Zhou Ziwen was not ready to go out. He returned to the house and took the barefoot doctor's manual and read it again and again.

The contents of this book have long been remembered in his mind, and he would take it out and read it just to pass the time.

He thought that he would buy some medical books and read them when he went to the county next time.

What happened today gave him a wake-up call.

Although he does not need any medical skills, the people in the village do. If they encounter such an emergency again in the future, they can use better methods to rescue him.

Whether it is acupuncture or medication, it is better than stimulating acupoints.

Zhou Ziwen felt that his idle slots seemed to be running out.

There are several skills waiting for you to hang up, and you can't use them even if you take turns.

Zhou Ziwen spent this afternoon in boredom.

Fortunately, within two hours, the Chen sisters went home from work.

As soon as they came back, Zhou Ziwen stopped saying he was bored.

With a girl by my side, I am happy even if I am bored.

"Brother Ziwen, we are back!"

Chen Qiaoyi's clear voice brought Zhou Ziwen back from his boring state.

"Haha, are you tired? I made some tea. You can drink some!" Zhou Ziwen put down the medical book in his hand and said with a smile.

"I'm not tired." Although she said this, Chen Qiaoyi still picked up the teacup obediently and took a sip of the tea brewed by Zhou Ziwen.

"Oh, this tea is so bitter!" As soon as she took a sip, Chen Qiaoyi grimaced and her brows knitted together.

"This is the wild camellia tea I picked in the mountains. It's a bit bitter, but it quenches my thirst." Zhou Ziwen laughed.

"It's too bitter and doesn't taste good." Chen Qiaoyi shook her head repeatedly. No matter how good Zhou Ziwen said it, she just wouldn't drink it anymore.

"Haha, okay, let's go push the tofu first. Let's drink dragon and phoenix soup and eat tofu today." Zhou Ziwen rubbed her head, pinched her face, and took her out of the bedroom after taking advantage.

Here, Zhou Ziwen's dragon and phoenix soup has been simmering for more than two hours, and the aroma has already spread out.

Just as he was stewing the dragon and phoenix soup outside, the aroma could not be concealed at all.

No, even the people from the Educated Youth Institute smelled it.

Those who were curious wandered over casually, ready to see what was so fragrant.

As soon as I came over, I saw a big pot of stew outside the Chen sisters' yard.

"Comrade Chen Shiying, what are you stewing? It's so fragrant?" asked a curious educated youth.

"This is snake meat, stewed by Zhou Ziwen." Chen Shiying glanced at them and answered.

This snake meat is stewed outside and cannot be hidden. Instead of being secretive, it is better to tell them directly.

"Stewed snake, no wonder it smells so good." Only then did the educated youth understand what the fragrance they had just smelled was.

This pot of snake meat contains old hens and some spices. It is cooked by Zhou Ziwen himself, so it certainly smells delicious.

"It turns out it was Zhou Zhiqing who stewed it. By the way, can you boil two eggs for me?" Upon hearing that the stew was snake meat, the clever educated youth hurriedly asked.

Snake stewed with eggs is a good thing. In rural areas, if someone hears someone getting a snake, they will definitely cook the eggs with them.

Eggs boiled in snake broth are of great benefit to both men and women.

It can not only nourish the kidneys and strengthen yang, but also nourish yin and blood.

Eating eggs boiled with snake meat can also regulate qi and blood, beautify the skin, enhance immunity, and improve sleep. It is a rare good thing.

"Okay, come here if you want to boil eggs. You can boil a lot of eggs in such a big pot." Zhou Ziwen came out of the room and after hearing the educated youth's question, he agreed generously.

Boiling eggs for others is a favor that comes at no cost. Although he doesn't have much contact with the people in the Educated Youth Institute, there is still no need to refuse this small thing.

"It turns out that Zhou Zhiqing is stewing snake meat. I also want to boil some eggs for my children to eat." Hearing the commotion here, villagers who live nearby also came to join in the fun.

"Come all, come all." Zhou Ziwen nodded boldly, and finally greeted them, asking them to tell others that those who want boiled eggs should come quickly.

"I knew Zhou Zhiqing was not a stingy person. Just wait and I'll tell the others." After hearing this, the villagers looked happy and had a better impression of Zhou Ziwen.

You know, boiling eggs for others also consumes money, and some of the nutrients in the snake soup will be absorbed by the eggs.

Although there are not many, most people are not as generous as Zhou Ziwen.

"Go ahead, anyone who wants boiled eggs can come." Zhou Ziwen welcomes all comers.

Just boil an egg, it doesn't take much effort.

"Chaoyang, I leave this matter to you. Remember to bring a basin of warm water out." Zhou Ziwen glanced at Zhou Chaoyang who was watching the fun and directly made him a strong man.

If this kid wants to fight Longfengtang, he can't do it without making some efforts.

"Brother Zhou, why are you carrying warm water?" Zhou Chaoyang asked curiously.

"One is to wash the eggs cleanly. Well, one basin won't work. You need to bring two basins and wash them twice more." Zhou Ziwen thought for a while and said.

"Oh, what other reasons are there?" Zhou Chaoyang nodded. He didn't want to boil dirty eggs into the pot. How could he drink dragon and phoenix soup if he didn't wash them clean?

"The other thing is to let the eggs adapt to the temperature. The temperature in the pot is so high. If the eggs are put in like this, they will break immediately."

He is there to help people, not to be a disservice.

If he cracked someone else's eggs, he couldn't explain it.

"So that's what happened. Then I'll pour some boiling water out."

After Zhou Chaoyang heard this, he felt like he suddenly realized that he really didn't know that he couldn't boil eggs in boiling water.

After leaving the boiled eggs to Zhou Chaoyang, Zhou Ziwen and the Chen sisters went to grind tofu together.

I guess by the time the tofu is cooked, the dragon and phoenix soup here will be almost done.
