Chapter 501



"Guoan, Miaomiao, today's events are all thanks to you. Otherwise, not only Shaoze, but our entire family would be implicated, and we don't know how serious the consequences would be. I will remember this kindness. If you need anything in the future, just ask. Our entire Luo family owes you a favor."

"Uncle and aunt, please stop talking like that. Given the relationship between Shaoze and me, how could we ignore something like this? But this incident has served as a reminder to us. We still need to be more cautious in doing things in the future."

"You're right. We were all careless. Shaoze is grateful to you, a friend, for your guidance. I'm very pleased to see his progress."

"Uncle and aunt, don't stand outside. Come in and have a seat and some tea."

When Li Miaomiao said drinking tea, she really just meant drinking tea. At a time like this, drinking tea was a very high treatment. Nowadays, there are really few families who are not short of water.

However, the tea was iced black tea made by Li Miaomiao herself. In such hot weather, it was so refreshing to drink a sip of tea.

The Luo family didn't stay here for long. After drinking tea, they went back.

Father Luo still has a lot of things to deal with, and this incident will of course have a follow-up. Even if GW kept Second Aunt Luo, it would be impossible to understand this matter. It's just that some things are not obvious.

The Luo family's recent methods have been too gentle, so some people dare to jump around and forget what happened in the past.

Luo's father is definitely a ruthless person.

Not long after Luo's father left, Pei Guoan also followed him out. He did not rush to deal with the food that Li Miaomiao had transferred out, but made some other arrangements.

Not to mention the Luo family, Pei Guoan couldn't swallow this humiliation, not to mention that the other party had already moved against him. If he didn't take any action, wouldn't anyone dare to follow suit?

Besides, some debris needs to be cleaned up.

It was two days after the incident when Luo Shaoze received the news. As soon as he came back, he went to see Luo's father first, and then came to Li Miaomiao.

"You're back, Pei Guoan will be back soon. Let Pei Guoan tell you the details."

Seeing Luo Shaoze's slovenly appearance, Li Miaomiao drank a large bowl of water and said, "Sit down and rest for a while. I'll go make you a bowl of noodles."

"Okay, don't tell me, I'm really starving right now. From yesterday, when I heard the news, until I finished the things I had to do, I was so busy that I only ate a few steamed buns."

"Okay, I'll make you a bowl of noodles first, and then I'll make you something delicious in the evening."

When Li Miaomiao was done with her slimming, Pei Guoan also came back after receiving the news from Luo Shaoze.

"Yes, I'm a little hungry."

"I made quite a bit, so I'll give you a bowl too."

"Don't worry about it, I'll do it myself."

Pei Guoan always does things by himself at home. He took the dishes from Li Miaomiao and motioned Luo Shaoze to do the same. He was not waiting for his wife to serve him personally, as he was reluctant to let his wife do more work.

Li Miaomiao didn't care what the two of them discussed in the study and prepared dinner.

During this period, Li Miaomiao rarely cooks such a sumptuous meal, for fear that the taste will be too tempting and attract people's attention, which may cause people outside to talk about it. Although their family is not afraid of anything, it is not good to be remembered by others.

"After all this time, I finally had a decent meal. This is what human beings eat."

"You're still picky. In this season, just look outside. It's good enough to have something to eat. Miaomiao saw that you must have suffered these days, so she made an exception and prepared something delicious for you."

Pei Guoan said this and glanced at the food on the table.

When GW's people came to search before, he knew exactly what was in the house. There wasn't even much rice or flour. There were only a few bags of grains and some dried vegetables in the kitchen. But now there was fish and meat, as if they had appeared out of thin air.

However, some things were known to everyone, so Pei Guoan did not raise any questions.

It was about the food: "Shao Ze, we have moved all the food in your house to other places. What I mean is, there is no need to keep so much food. This year's drought will last until autumn at most. As long as it rains, the situation will be greatly alleviated. We just need to keep enough, and the rest of the food can be put to better use."

Luo Shaoze was on a mission this time to a place not far from Jiang Province, which was also suffering from drought. He was deeply touched by Pei Guoan's words and immediately agreed with them.

"You're right. That's what I originally planned. Instead of keeping the food in my hands, where there's no better use for it, it's better to make use of it."

"Okay, since you agree, let's do it this way."

"I put most of the food in the places you told me about before, but then I ran out of space, so I found two other places. I'm afraid it won't be safe to leave it there for too long, so we need to deal with it as soon as possible."

Li Miaomiao was not in a hurry to deal with it these days because she knew that there were people watching outside. The Luo family and Pei Guoan took action together in the past two days, and those people were already busy with their own affairs and did not have that much energy to keep an eye on this side.

"There's no need to choose a time. We'll go over and take a look after dinner."

Li Miaomiao nodded and said, "Actually, we still have quite a bit of food at home. I plan to go back to my hometown in a few days. It's been so long, and I don't know how things are going with my parents. It's a good opportunity to bring some things back. Also, there's something about Yanan that I should disclose to her. Although she's doing a good job as the principal, a small place like Fanglin Village isn't a place she can stay for long. It's a waste of such a talented person."

Compared to herself, Li Miaomiao felt that Li Yanan was a real talent. She just relied on the system and was actually an ordinary person. People like Li Yanan were truly cultivated since childhood and had outstanding personal abilities.

"We have a lot of food at home. We are running low on food due to this incident. Please leave some for us and I will take care of the rest."

Pei Guoan said this deliberately in front of Luo Shaoze. Even with the best of friends, some secrets cannot be revealed. His wife is a kind-hearted person, so he has to pay more attention to her and not let others see anything wrong.

"Guoan, you're really good. I didn't know you had this habit of hoarding food, but it really comes in handy this time."

"During the time when I was in trouble, Miaomiao was probably afraid of being hungry, so she developed the habit of hoarding food. My wife only has this hobby, so I stockpiled some extra food. Even if I can't use it all, I can always sell it."

Luo Shaoze didn't think much about it when he heard it. He had discovered a long time ago that Pei Guoan had always been lucky, as if he was being taken care of by God. During this drought, Pei Guoan happened to stockpile food. Although these foods did not have much effect on the current drought, they could at least solve the problems of a small number of people. If one person was not starved to death, it would be a merit.

Luo Shaoze is not a soft-hearted person, but in the face of such a disaster, everyone has empathy.
