Chapter 446: Something Went Wrong
The breeze was blowing, the minute hand of the watch pointed to the third square, and at eleven o'clock, there was no figure on the path.
Wei Lanxiu frowned slightly, and secretly comforted herself in her heart:
It must be that Gu Chao has a load on his body, so he ...... Wait another five minutes!
However, five minutes passed, and there was still no one in the distance.
That's to be expected.
It's a bit of a distance from the big cafeteria, so I want to wait and see, but time doesn't allow it.
Wei Lan patted her cheeks, let out a long sigh of relief, put aside her negative emotions, and waved her hand to greet the two little ones, "Okay, pack up and go home!" ā
"Oh! Go home! ā
"Youlan, wait for me!"
One of the two little ones ran down the hillside with a hoe and a basket with wild vegetables.
The child's immature and carefree laughter infected Wei Lan, and she inserted her ten fingers into her black hair, pulled up a random ponytail at random, and followed her and ran quickly down the mountain.
"Beware...... Look at the dots under your feet! ā
"Got it! Sister Arashi! Hahahaha...... Feng Yao, I'm running faster than you! ā
"Youlan, Sister Lan said, be careful, you run slower and don't fall......"
"Don't worry! I'm looking at my feet! ā
Running all the way to the brigade, Youlan led Feng Yao with red cheeks, and her dark and agile deer eyes blinked, "Sister Lan, Grandma said to boil eggs at noon, and I will send them to you when the time comes!" ā
"Okay, let's go back after playing outside for a while!" Wei Lan smiled and nodded, and touched his hands on Youlan and Ji Fengyao's heads.
Seeing the two little ones running to the ridge to dig wild vegetables, Wei Lan turned around and trotted in the direction of the big canteen.
When I got to the corner of the alley near the big cafeteria, a figure jumped out at the entrance of the alley, Wei Lan couldn't stop in time, and collided with the man.
It stands to reason that it is still idle now, Wei Lan didn't see who the figure was, and only smelled an uncomfortable smell of sweat, which was very strong.
As soon as the smell came into his nose, Wei Lan subconsciously held his breath, his body swayed, and finally held on to the alley in time to avoid falling.
It rained a while ago, and there was little sunlight shining into this alley, and a thin layer of green moss was formed on the wall.
Wei Lan had goosebumps on her back, and she quickly withdrew her hand after standing firm, and it was precisely because of this that she could see clearly who the person who collided with her was.
"Second aunt?" Wei Lan's peach blossom eyes widened slightly, and she looked at Second Aunt Liu who fell to the ground in disbelief.
Second Aunt Liu was not as lucky as Wei Lan, she plunged into the alley just now, and she didn't expect to bump into someone at all, and she fell not lightly, and she didn't get up for a long time.
Aunt Liu was lying on the ground on all fours, like a turtle turned over, waving her hands and legs and struggling to get up.
Hearing the voice, Second Aunt Liu was stunned for a moment, and the struggling movements paused for a moment, she turned over and sat on the ground and looked up at Wei Lan, with a sneering expression, "Hey, ouch...... It's Wei Zhiqing! What do you think? Didn't hit you anywhere, did you? ā
After that, she got up and wanted to get close to Wei Lan to check, Xu fell hard, and as soon as she took a step, she fell crooked on the wall of the alley, "Hey, hey, hey, feed my feet......"
Aunt Liu's temperament Wei Lan is clear, she can't see others well, and she can quarrel with people for three days and three nights for the sake of fixed-point profits.
Afraid that Second Aunt Liu would touch porcelain, Wei Lan jumped away in one step, and looked at Second Aunt Liu with round peach blossom eyes, "I'm fine, but Second Auntie, don't fall somewhere, right?" Do you want me to call someone and take you to the health center? ā
"No, no, I'm fine!" As soon as she heard that Wei Lan was going to call someone, Aunt Liu put out flowers in her hand and hurriedly refused.
Probably realizing that she had overreacted, Second Aunt Liu withdrew her hand with a slightly hideous smile on her face, "I don't have a big deal here...... Didn't Wei Zhiqing still have to cook for the big guys? It's almost there, right? Hurry, get busy! Don't delay! ā
"Oh......" Wei Lan's peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and she bowed her head slightly, "Since the second aunt said that it was okay, then I will leave first." ā
Wei Lan turned sideways and bypassed Aunt Liu.
As soon as she took two steps, Wei Lan turned around suddenly, thinking that Aunt Liu would raise the big wooden bastard behind her back to give her a look, but found that Aunt Liu didn't move in place, just staring at her with a pair of triangular eyes.
Seeing her turn around suddenly, she even nodded and smiled "friendly".
Abnormal, so abnormal.
Wei Lan had fought with Aunt Liu a few times before, not to mention that she knew Aunt Liu completely, but she also understood a rough idea, the two of them had already laid the foundation of contradictions, so how could you say that Aunt Liu would not be so friendly and easy to talk to.
Don't......
Wei Lan stood outside the alley, turned her head and glanced at Aunt Liu, who was staggering forward with her legs in the alley, as if she thought of something, and ran in the direction of the big canteen.
Wei Lan's face was flushed, and he pushed open the door of the big canteen with a "snap", and the two people in the courtyard who were busy suddenly looked up.
Jiang Lihua was stunned, and then looked suspicious, "What's wrong?" ā
Wei Lan pursed her dry lips, panting and shaking her head, "No, nothing." ā
Lying on the door and gasping for a few breaths, Wei Lan finally changed some, Wei Lan spoke again, "Did anyone come to the cafeteria just now?" ā
Li Sangsang nodded, "The sister-in-law on the team came here and sent a basket of vegetable moss." It's a little hollow, and you can fry a sea bowl by picking one, which is enough for the canteen to deal with. ā
Wei Lan didn't have time to discuss the question of how much vegetable moss there was and whether it was enough, and then asked, "Who are the aunts?" Is the second aunt among them? ā
Seeing that Jiang Lihua and Li Sangsang were stunned, Wei Lan stomped her feet, "It's the second Aunt Liu who made the most trouble in the big canteen last time, has she ever been here?" ā
Wei Lan looked anxious, and Jiang Lihua couldn't help but look at it.
"I've been here." Jiang Lihua put down the sweet potatoes she was washing, stood up and walked over, "What's wrong?" ā
As soon as he heard that Second Aunt Liu had come, combined with the abnormal behavior he saw on the road just now, Wei Lan couldn't settle down.
"I don't know what happened to her, tell me first, what has she done since she came? Where did the cafeteria go? Wei Lan pulled Jiang Lihua and looked her eyes into the eyes and asked.
Jiang Lihua tried hard to remember, and finally only replied: "I walked around the courtyard, and then left, and I didn't do anything else." ā
Wei Lan twisted her eyebrows and asked, "Are you sure?" ā
Jiang Lihua was originally certain, but she was repeatedly asked by Wei Lan, but she was a little uncertain, she turned her head to look at Li Sangsang, "Yes, right?" I had just been in the yard to fetch water to wash sweet potatoes, and the ladies came in and walked around, praised a few words and left. ā
Li Sangsang also nodded, "Wei Lan, Sister Lihua is right, I was there just now." ā
"Okay......" Wei Lan let go of Jiang Lihua, took a step back and widened the distance slightly, she turned around and stood in the courtyard and looked around.
The key to the door of the big canteen is in charge of Li Sangsang, because every day it is necessary to fill it with water, Li Sangsang and his brother Li Jiandang will arrive earlier.
At this time, the yard was almost cleaned up, and a large wooden basin was placed in the center of the yard, in which sweet potatoes were soaked, and the water was very muddy.
Everything looks pretty much the same, nothing weird, but Wei Lan just can't put his mind at ease.
Wei Lan was still looking at the details of the courtyard, but Jiang Lihua and Li Sangsang couldn't help it, holding her hand one by one and swaying it from side to side, "What the hell is going on?" Shocked, weird and scary! ā
"yes, you mean? We are worried about the province. ā
It's not easy for Wei Lan to talk nonsense about people's reputations, but these two people in front of him can be trusted.
Wei Lan pursed her lips, pondered for a moment, and still told the two of them what she really thought in her heart.
"What? Then look it up! Jiang Lihua was babbling, her face was full of surprise, for fear that something would go wrong in the big canteen, and the team would put the responsibility on them at that time.
On the contrary, Li Sangsang patted his chest with his small hand, much more calmly, "I don't think there is any need to worry about this." It's about the team, if something really goes wrong, it's not just the three of us who are responsible, from the members of the team to the captain, no one can run. ā
Li Sangsang was confident, "As long as you are not stupid, I basically hope that our team can be the best in this sunflower seed project." ā
It's a good reason, but I'm afraid of meeting someone who can't figure it out.
Li Sangsang has a strong sense of collective honor in his heart, and he doesn't believe that anyone will sabotage it and make a fuss.
"Hmm......" Wei Lan nodded lightly, her dark eyebrows furrowed worriedly, afraid that if she said it deeply, it would make Li Sangsang disgusted, so she took a breath and pressed the words in her heart, only paying extra attention to it when she was busy in the back.
This attention, when it comes to steaming brown rice, I really found some problems when I was pumping water and washing rice.
"Why is the water so mixed today?"
The big water tank is in the corner of the courtyard wall, and the water that is usually picked up is crystal clear, but today the water in the tank is like someone rubbing a handful of mud inside, and the water is yellow and turbid.
Wei Lan held the basin in one hand, and stirred it in the water tank with half of the gourd scoop in the other hand, and finally scooped up a scoop and sniffed it.
There is nothing special, strange about the taste.
"Where does the water come from today? Small port? Or is it the well of the captain's house? ā
"I picked it from the captain's house, and I went with my brother in the morning." Li Sangsang said.
In the morning, when Li Sangsang and her brother Li Jiandang went to fetch water, they saw it really clearly, and the water was clear.
Hearing what Wei Lan said, Li Sangsang still didn't believe it, and when he took a closer look at the water in the tank, Li Sangsang's eyes widened, "Mother!" What's going on? Don't be a house finch pooping in there, right? ā
Wei Lan thought that the mud she thought about was too much, and Li Sangsang directly made a piece of......
The water in the tank can't be looked at directly, right?
Wei Lan glanced at his watch, time should be in a hurry.
She pushed the basin into Li Sangsang's arms, picked up the wooden bucket casually and walked out, "Okay, anyway, don't use the water in the jar first, you go to pinch the vegetable moss first, I'll go to the captain's house to fetch a bucket of water and come back in a while." ā
"I'd better go!" Li Sangsang carefully put the basin on the ground, for fear of spilling a grain of rice, and after stabilizing it, he caught up with Wei Lan and grabbed the bucket.
Li Sangsang turned around and teased Wei Lan while running, "Just your little arms and legs, it's only half a bucket of water to fight back, who can you use?" ā
"Look at your feet!" Wei Lan glared at her angrily.
Li Sangsang carried the bucket and ran away quickly without a trace.
Thousands of precautions, the people who went down to the ground at noon came back, and the situation still appeared when they were on the table to eat.
On the long table, there is a bowl of sea-boiled vegetable moss and a large pot of egg drop soup.
A group of young men laughed and drank the soup, but shouted at the three girls in the back room:
"Hey! I said Sang Zao'er, is there still that yellow eel a few days ago? Why don't you do it? We haven't had enough yet! ā
Yellow eel is not serious meat, they have eaten it in previous years, and a muddy smell can vomit out all the overnight food in the stomach.
I don't know how the three girls in the big cafeteria did it, but there was no fishy smell at all, and the soft and tender meat wrapped in the soup was bitten down, and the happy eyebrows were about to fly away.
"yes, don't you know how to catch it? If not, we will take the time to catch it ourselves when we go back, and when the time comes, will you do it? ā
The words were really said by them, after Gu Chao left, those yellow eels at home were made twice, although there were still some left, but it was not enough to fry a large plate for everyone to eat, Wei Lan simply didn't toss, only let Youlan dig some earthworms every day and throw them in, and keep them temporarily.
There are five ready-made fish baskets at home, Wei Lan once got up early in the morning with bait, ran to the place where the fish baskets were put downstream of the small port, and failed to step his feet into the water after several mental constructions.
The temperature is already low in the morning, and it is even colder in the water.
She couldn't even imagine what kind of mentality Gu Chao had when she went into the water every time.
He is also a flesh-and-blood living person, not iron.
Wei Lan sighed lightly, her eyebrows twisted in distress, and suddenly flashed in her mind what she had seen on TV, the kind of rubber shoes that fishermen wore when fishing were a bit like suspenders, connected from the feet all the way to the chest, as long as the water level was less than the chest, the clothes would not be wet.
In this era, I don't know if there are any for sale.
Wei Lan was nudged by Jiang Lihua beside her, suddenly came back to her senses, opened her mouth and was about to answer, when there was a sudden uproar and scolding outside:
"Black egg, are you okay? Everyone is still eating, how are you going to make everyone eat? ā
"Yes, I'm sorry! You eat first, eat first, and leave me alone! ā
A rush of footsteps ran by, and the sound in the house did not stop, "Someone else is eating, he suddenly wants to squat in the toilet, how can he eat?" ā
"It's just, hey, ouch...... How, how...... My, my stomach hurts too! ā
"Oh, me too, no, black egg, wait, wait for me, I'll go too!"
"IāI'll go too!"
In the blink of an eye, the long table people who were still making a lot of noise just now ran away, and the remaining three or five stared at each other, and then kicked the same long legs, squeezed away the chair and the table to open the distance, and the sweet potatoes and rice bowls in their hands were pushed far away.
One person has diarrhea can't explain the problem, three, five or ten have diarrhea, it is enough to show that it is a big problem, for the safety of themselves and the project, everyone is very careful.
Wei Lan and Jiang Lihua came out when they heard the movement, and they were a little dumbfounded when they saw that the hall was mostly empty, "What, how?" ā
