Chapter 132 The rice has a musty smell

When I got home, I didn’t see my elder brother and sister-in-law. I searched both the front and back of the house, but there was still no one.

Li Shaoan was just wondering where the elder brother and sister-in-law went, and Chen Chunlan happened to appear at the door. When the two met, Chen Chunlan seemed a little shy.

"Sister-in-law Chunlan, do you know where my elder brother and sister-in-law have gone?"

"I'm coming for this matter." Chen Chunlan said: "The relatives of your sister-in-law's family will take their daughter-in-law, and your brother and sister-in-law will go to the wedding banquet together. I guess they won't come back for two or three days, so I asked me to come and take care of you."

This time, Li Shaoguo and Tan Hongxia went to have a wedding banquet. Considering that the two children at home were in school and it was not convenient to take them together, they had to stay at home. Li Shaoan did not know how to do housework and did not understand cooking and cooking at all. There was always someone to take care of the two young people in the family, so the couple thought of Chen Chunlan and asked her to take care of the family.

"Then I'll bother my sister-in-law these days."

"Why are the family talking about this? How are the mushrooms selling today?"

Speaking of mushrooms, Li Shaoan was very happy, "It's pretty good. I brought out 300 kilograms today and sold them all, which was even more popular than expected."

Chen Chunlan also happily said, "That's good. If you can't be busy, your sister-in-law will go with you in the future."

Li Shaoan said: "Sister-in-law Chunlan, when these mushrooms are sold, you can help you repay the money you owed to the village."

Chen Chunlan was naturally very grateful when she heard Li Shaoan's words. If she had not encountered Li Shaoan's righteous help and carrying the village's debts, she would have been able to repay them. During this period, she would have been harassed by Huang Yunlong on this excuse.

It can be said that with the help of Li Shaoan, Chen Chunlan was able to get out of the predicament and walked out of the shadow of the haze.

It is precisely because of this that Chen Chunlan's feelings for Li Shaoan are always a little different. Not only because she once staged a scene that made people blush in front of Li Shaoan, but she also felt that this man was too outstanding. Compared with him, Ma Ming was simply unremarkable. Since she ran to Dongyue, she has no news, leaving her alone in this remote mountain village.

He liked Li Shaoan more or less, but Chen Chunlan did not dare to show it. The main reason was the generation of the two. Although they were distant relatives, Chen Chunlan was also Li Shaoan's cousin's wife. Although Ma Ming left his family, he did not divorce. Therefore, Chen Chunlan is still a married woman now, and it is not right to be together.

The emotions for Li Shaoan are like a seed buried deep in the heart. Chen Chunlan dared not let it sprout, so she could only bury this seed in her heart forever. It is enough for Chen Chunlan to be able to get along like now.

While the two were talking, Li Songlin and Li Songshu came back from school. The two brothers were having fun and the house immediately became very lively.

"I won't say anything, I'll go to the stove to prepare dinner."

Chen Chunlan calmed down and came to the stove, preparing the family's supper quickly.

Looking at Chen Chunlan's back, Li Shaoan felt a little disgusted, mainly because his cousin Ma Ming was not a person, so he didn't want his wife at home. He went to Dongyue for many years and had never even sent a letter back, which made people not know whether they were dead or alive outside.

Li Shaoan felt guilty about Chen Chunlan. Although the reason for this guilt did not come from himself, Li Shaoan had his own plans. Even if his cousin Ma Ming really never appears again in the future, he would take good care of Chen Chunlan and prevent her from being bullied by outsiders.

Chen Chunlan's skills are naturally very good. She owes a little bit compared to Tan Hongxia, but that's not to mention that. Li Shaoan has been selling mushrooms for a day and is already hungry and swallowing two big bowls of food. Only then can he be considered full.

These two big bowls are not ordinary rice bowls, but big dishes used to serve dishes. You can imagine how tired you will be in the day.

If Li Shaoan had enough food to eat, Li Shaoan was overeating, and Li Songshu and Li Songlin were still stuffing their mouths.

Looking at the two brothers storming the wind and clouds, they seemed to be released from prison for ten days and half a month hungry, Chen Chunlan and Li Shaoan couldn't help but look at each other and were surprised.

Li Shaoan couldn't help asking, "Did you two not have a good meal at school during the day?"

Chen Chunlan explained to the two brothers: "Shao'an, the child is having a long meal. It's not surprising that he eats too much."

When Li Shaoan experienced sports, he felt hungry all day long and wanted to eat a cow, but obviously his two little nephews did not belong to this situation. One was in the sixth grade of elementary school and the other was in the third grade of elementary school, which was still far from a huge increase in appetite.

"What's going on with you two? Tell me the truth!" Li Shaoan became serious to his two nephews.

"Uncle, we didn't have any meals at school..." The two brothers lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Li Shaoan.

Li Shaoan asked: "Didn't the school take care of the food at noon? Why don't you eat it?"

Li Songshu looked at Li Shaoan and said in a frightened and scared manner: "That rice is not delicious, it has a taste."

Li Shaoan lowered his head and said nothing, his eyebrows were tightly touching each other, and his expression looked very strange. The two boys of the Li family were afraid of being educated by their uncle, so they both shook their heads and did not dare to make a sound.

Chen Chunlan also thought that Li Shaoan was going to be angry, so she hurriedly advised: "Shaoan, sometimes children don't like to eat, and they will get better when they grow older, so don't blame them."

In fact, what Li Shaoan was thinking about was not this question, but the food in the school cafeteria mentioned by Li Songshu and Li Songlin had a taste.

If you guess this taste is correct, it is the musty smell, which is the musty smell that only comes out when cooking with aged rice.

The reason I guessed this all at once was because when I met Zhang Shide this afternoon, Li Shaoan smelled the musty smell coming out of it when he was moving the sacks.

At that time, Li Shaoan had already discovered this problem, but he did not raise it to Zhang Shide on the spot.

In Li Shaoan's impression, Zhang Shide's character and teacher ethics have absolutely no problem. He is a person who devotes himself to rural education. However, why would such a person who makes selfless contributions for his children buy Chenmi for the children?

What Li Shaoan couldn't understand was this problem. Zhang Shide withdrew the canteen food expenses and deliberately bought Chenmi as a inferior one to make good money, which made his own pocket fat? This is impossible. Zhang Shide's character would never do such a thing.

Another possibility is that Zhang Shide is not good at buying rice, and was cheated by an unscrupulous merchant, and mistakenly bought Chen Mi as a good rice and returned it.

However, based on the subtle expressions of the two of them looking at each other at that time, Li Shaoan felt that Zhang Shide was definitely aware of this matter, but what was Zhang Shide for? Li Shaoan couldn't understand the reason.

"Shao'an, what are you thinking?" Seeing that Li Shao'an was stunned and silent for a long time without any movement, Chen Chunlan called out softly.

Li Shaoan came to his senses and asked the two brothers: "When did the rice from the school taste like this?"

Li Songshu and Li Songlin replied carefully: "Since this semester, they have always had a strange smell. Some students didn't think anything, but we both didn't like that smell."

"Shao'an, what do you think is going on? Could it be that the school's rice is wrong?" Chen Chunlan asked.

Li Shaoan shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. It's probably because these two kids don't like to eat at school and make up the excuse. In short, I'll go to school to check it out tomorrow. Don't tell the outside world about this for the time being."
