The Age of Rebirth: Winning since the educated youth went to the countryside

Zhou Ziwen is quite familiar with the salesperson at the coal supply point.

The salesman’s name was Li Zhiqiang. He was Zhou Ziwen’s high school classmate, but they were not in the same class.

"Ziwen, long time no see. How come you have time to buy coal today?" Li Zhiqiang asked with a smile.

"We're running out of coal at home, so come and buy some for backup." Zhou Ziwen replied.

"Is your wife about to give birth?" Li Zhiqiang asked with concern.

This was not the first time Zhou Ziwen met Li Zhiqiang, so he knew Zhou Ziwen's situation.

"Yes, just these few days." Zhou Ziwen said.

"Then you have to be prepared. Just let me know if you need any help," said Li Zhiqiang.

"Thank you, Zhiqiang. There's nothing I can help you with at the moment." Zhou Ziwen said.

"By the way, the supply of coal has been tight recently. You have to buy more, otherwise it may be hard to buy after a while." Li Zhiqiang reminded.

"I know, I'll buy more this time." Zhou Ziwen said.

Li Zhiqiang helped Zhou Ziwen load the coal onto the cart, and then said, "Ziwen, be careful on the road, don't slip."

"Don't worry, I will be careful." Zhou Ziwen said.

Pushing a cart full of coal, Zhou Ziwen walked home carefully.

On the way, he met some neighbors, who greeted him and asked about his wife.

He has been back home for quite some time, and his neighbors all know the situation in his home.

Zhou Ziwen answered all the questions one by one, feeling warm in his heart. After returning home, he moved the coal into the yard. Zhou Ma and Chen Shiying came out to help, but Zhou Ziwen refused.

"Mom, Shiying, you guys go in and have a rest. I can do this job myself."

Zhou Ziwen asked his mother and Chen Shiying to come into the house, and he moved the coal to the coal bin in the kitchen by himself.

After moving the coal, Zhou Ziwen pushed the cart and went to the coal supply point again.

He borrowed this cart from Li Zhiqiang and now needs to return it.

Pushing the cart, Zhou Ziwen arrived at the coal supply point again in a short while.

After returning the cart to Li Zhiqiang, Zhou Ziwen prepared to leave.

"Ziwen, if your wife gives birth, remember to notify me and I will go to see her." Li Zhiqiang said.

"Okay, I'll let you know when the time comes." Zhou Ziwen said.

After saying goodbye to Li Zhiqiang, Zhou Ziwen returned home.

When he got home, the house was already filled with the aroma of food.

Mother Zhou was busy in the kitchen, while Chen Qiaoyi was sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding a book in her hand and reading it casually.

"Brother Ziwen, you are back!"

When Chen Qiaoyi saw Zhou Ziwen, her eyes lit up.

"Well, I'm back. Today, Li Zhiqiang from the coal supply point said that the coal supply has been tight recently, so I bought some more."

Zhou Ziwen responded with a smile, then took off his coat and hung it on the hanger next to him.

Chen Qiaoyi nodded and said, "You are very thoughtful. It is always good to be more prepared."

Zhou Ziwen walked over to Chen Qiaoyi and sat down. He gently held her hand and asked, "How do you feel today? Is the baby naughty?"

Chen Qiaoyi smiled and said, "The baby is very well behaved, but sometimes he kicks me a few times."

Zhou Ziwen said gently: "That means the baby is healthy and active."

At this time, Chen Shiying came out of the kitchen and said, "Ziwen, Yiyi, the meal is almost ready, you should wash your hands and eat."

Zhou Ziwen and Chen Qiaoyi responded and got up to wash their hands.

The family sat around the dining table and started to enjoy dinner.

Zhou Ziwen took a bite of the braised pork and praised, "Mom, the braised pork you make is getting better and better."

There is a big difference between Zhou Ma and Chen Shiying's cooking skills. Although Zhou Ma's cooking skills are not that good, I haven't eaten my mother's cooking for a long time. After not eating it for a while, I really miss it.

Zhou Ma smiled and said, "As long as you like it, eat more."

Chen Qiaoyi also picked up some dishes and put them in Zhou Ziwen's bowl, saying, "Brother Ziwen, you should eat more too."

"Yeah, okay." Zhou Ziwen nodded.

After dinner, Zhou Ziwen was preparing to take a rest. As soon as he lay down on the bed, he heard someone calling his name outside.

Zhou Ziwen went outside and saw that it was the postman delivering the letter.

"Zhou Ziwen, there's a letter for you." The postman handed him a letter.

"Okay, thank you." Zhou Ziwen took the letter. He was still a little confused as to who sent it.

But when I looked at the envelope, I found out that the letter was from Tang Yaoyao.

Zhou Ziwen took the letter back into the house and was about to open it when the two sisters came over.

"Brother Ziwen, whose letter is this?" Chen Qiaoyi asked curiously.

Zhou Ziwen replied, "It was sent by Tang Yaoyao. I don't know how she is doing in the countryside."

"Yaoyao sent a letter? Open it quickly and take a look." Chen Qiaoyi said happily.

Zhou Ziwen opened the envelope and took out the letter inside. There was a lot of content in the letter.

You can tell by the thickness that there is a lot of content inside.

"This little chatterbox is really good at writing! He wrote so much."

Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.

"Haha, Yaoyao must be bored and has nothing to do at home."

Chen Qiaoyi laughed out loud.

She could imagine how bored Tang Yaoyao must be, staying at home every day without them to accompany her.

"It's really difficult for her." Chen Shiying also smiled beside her.

Zhou Ziwen and the two sisters opened the letter together and read it carefully.

In the letter, Tang Yaoyao first expressed her longing for Zhou Ziwen and her two sisters, and then described in detail her life in the countryside.

She said she lived well in the countryside, except that she felt bored sometimes and missed being with everyone.

She also mentioned some changes in the village, such as who built a new house, who had a new baby, etc.

Tang Yaoyao also made special mention of the kittens in Zhou Ziwen's family, saying that they were very cute and obedient.

She also said that she took good care of Tayun and the others.

And the chickens in the backyard don’t lay eggs every day because the weather is too cold…

As for the life in the village, she said that the village monument has been installed.

Since the village monument was built, Wu Dagang would go and take a look whenever he had time and stay at the entrance of the village for a while...

At the end of the letter, Tang Yaoyao once again expressed her longing for everyone and hoped that Zhou Ziwen and the two sisters could return home as soon as possible.

After reading the letter, Zhou Ziwen smiled and said to the two sisters: "Yaoyao is quite adaptable to the countryside, but she is too bored."

Chen Qiaoyi also laughed and said, "Yes, after the baby is born, we will go back to see her."

Chen Shiying also nodded in agreement: "Well, it's not easy for Yaoyao to be alone in the countryside. Let's bring her some gifts when we go back."

"Okay, then we'll discuss it together and bring Yaoyao something she likes." Zhou Ziwen nodded with a smile.

He also missed this little girl who loved to chatter.

"Ziwen, let's write back to Yaoyao first! Let's write one letter each." Chen Shiying said.

"Okay, then let's write one each." Zhou Ziwen agreed.

So, the three of them each found a quiet corner and started writing letters.
