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

After staying in Niushan Village for a while and giving some instructions, Zhou Ziwen refused Niu Jiefang's request to stay and rode his bicycle back to Dabazi Village.

After being delayed for so long, it's almost time to get off work.

He looked at the time and decided not to go to the pig farm.

Zhou Ziwen simply turned the car around and went straight home.

When he returned home, Chen Qiaoyi was accompanying Yueyue to sleep. Seeing this, Zhou Ziwen did not disturb them.

He went to the yard, took out the eel he had caught last night and started processing it.

By the time Zhou Ziwen had finished processing the eels, Chen Shiying had also returned from work.

"You're back. What happened to the mushrooms in Niushan Village? Is there any problem?" Chen Shiying asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's just a minor problem, it's been solved."

As Zhou Ziwen spoke, he washed the eel.

"That's good." Chen Shiying breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that.

She looked at the eel in Zhou Ziwen's hand and said with a smile, "Shall we have eel for lunch?"

"Yes, the eels in this season are very plump, just right for you and Qiaoyi to nourish their bodies." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Chen Shiying showed a happy smile on her face and she took the initiative to help make lunch.

Zhou Ziwen cut the eel into sections and added red pepper, garlic, ginger slices and other condiments, and a delicious braised eel was ready.

This dish is full of freshness and fragrance, which will whet your appetite.

Chen Shiying also stir-fried some vegetables and made an egg soup. The combination of meat and vegetables was nutritious and healthy.

“By the way, Chaoyang and the others haven’t eaten yet, I’ll call them over to eat together.” Zhou Ziwen said.

He and Zhou Chaoyang caught this eel together last night, so of course he couldn't eat it alone this time.

"Well, go call them!" Chen Shiying nodded.

Zhou Ziwen turned around and walked out when he heard that. He came to the door of Zhou Chaoyang's house and shouted, "Chaoyang, is the meal ready? Come and eat together."

"Okay! I still have one dish that I haven't cooked yet. I'll come over when it's done." Zhou Chaoyang in the room agreed.

"Then hurry up."

"okay!"

After calling Zhou Chaoyang, Zhou Ziwen went to Shen Zhaodi and Tang Yaoyao's house and asked them to come and eat together.

They are cooking now.

After a while, Zhou Chaoyang, Shen Zhaodi and Tang Yaoyao all came over.

Each of them held two plates of food in their hands and came together to eat.

They were used to situations like this.

If someone has something delicious, they will call everyone to come together, and the more people there are, the more lively and delicious it is. Soon, several people sat together, talking and laughing while eating lunch.

"Brother Zhou, you cooked the eel very well! It smells so good." Zhou Chaoyang couldn't help but praise while eating the eel.

"Haha, if you like it, we can go get some together later." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.

"Great! This yellow eel is really delicious and much better than loach." Zhou Chaoyang agreed.

"Well, it's really delicious, Ziwen, eat more." Chen Shiying picked up a piece of eel meat with chopsticks and gave it to Zhou Ziwen.

Zhou Ziwen has been very busy during this period and is almost losing weight.

"Shiying, you eat too!" Zhou Ziwen took a bite and picked up some eel meat for Chen Qiaoyi and Chen Shiying.

Several people ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. After lunch, Zhou Chaoyang and his friends took their plates home.

Zhou Ziwen held little Yueyue and played in the yard for a while.

When the two sisters were done, Zhou Ziwen handed Xiao Yueyue to them and went back to sleep. He didn't wake up from the kang until about 2pm.

He washed his face and went straight to the pig farm.

After Zhou Ziwen arrived at the pig farm, he went directly to the hatchery.

The temperature and humidity in the incubator are maintained at the right levels to ensure the eggs hatch under optimal conditions.

At this point, ten days had passed since the start of incubation, and most of the eggs had undergone noticeable changes.

He gently held each egg up to the light to determine how the embryo was developing.

He found that there was obvious movement inside most of the eggs, and the embryonic forms of some chicks were already vaguely visible, which showed that the incubation was progressing smoothly.

Judging from the current situation, these eggs will be able to hatch in about ten days.

By then, the chicken farm will also be busy.

After Zhou Ziwen came out of the incubation room, he went straight to the warehouse.

There was a faint smell of engine oil in the warehouse, and the tractor, which had not yet been fully repaired, was parked quietly in the corner.

Zhou Ziwen walked up to the tractor and looked at it carefully.

After previous maintenance, some parts of the tractor have been repaired and replaced, but some key parts still need further adjustment.

He first checked the engine and found that some previously repaired areas needed further reinforcement.

So he picked up the tools, skillfully disassembled the engine casing, and carefully inspected and adjusted the internal parts.

He tightened some loose screws and replaced several gaskets that were severely worn to ensure the sealing and stability of the engine.

Zhou Ziwen continued his maintenance work in the warehouse. His hands deftly moved among the various parts of the tractor. Every movement revealed his deep understanding and skilled techniques of machinery.

After replacing and adjusting the engine parts, Zhou Ziwen began to check the tractor's hydraulic system.

The hydraulic system is also critical to the operation of the tractor. If there is a problem with the hydraulic system, it will affect many functions of the tractor, such as the raising and lowering of suspended agricultural implements.

Zhou Ziwen opened the protective cover of the hydraulic system and carefully observed the internal components such as the oil pipes, oil seals and hydraulic pumps.

He found that there was slight oil leakage at the joints of some oil pipes, which could cause the loss of hydraulic oil and affect the system pressure.

He took out the tools, carefully loosened the nut on the oil pipe interface, removed the old oil seal, and replaced it with a brand new one.

During the installation process, he ensured that the oil seal was in place and that an appropriate amount of sealant was applied to enhance the sealing effect.

After repairing the tractor for two hours, Zhou Ziwen stretched and decided to finish his work for the day.

A tractor cannot be repaired in a day or two. Although some progress has been made in tractor maintenance today, there is still a long way to go before it can be completely repaired.

Walking out of the warehouse, Zhou Ziwen took a deep breath of fresh air. The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on his face, making him feel that the fatigue of the day seemed to be relieved a lot.

Zhou Ziwen returned home and saw Chen Qiaoyi playing with little Yueyue in the yard.

"Brother Ziwen, you're back." Chen Qiaoyi saw Zhou Ziwen and greeted him with a smile.

"Well, it's a bit tiring to repair the tractor today, but the progress is good." Zhou Ziwen responded with a smile.

"Brother Ziwen, then you should go wash up and take a rest. I'll cook." Chen Qiaoyi said gently.

"Okay, you take care of Yueyue first, I'll take care of the eel."

There are still some eels left from the previous catch, so I can make another meal with them in the evening.

Zhou Ziwen came to the yard and started to process the eels.

With his skillful technique, he quickly cleaned the eel, cut it into pieces, and prepared to make a delicious dish in the evening.

Not long after, Chen Shiying also came back.

Zhou Ziwen sat in the yard, playing with little Yueyue and listening to the sounds coming from the kitchen, his heart filled with warmth and satisfaction.

This is the life he longs for, where his family lives in harmony and works together for a better life.
