Chapter 153: There is another shop in the city

Qi Ye was stunned. The face of the face became more and more confused and dignified. I saw that he was chattering around Qiye a few times, and finally stood still, all his facial features were screwed together.

"No, no......" muttered to himself.

Qiye asked again, "Sir, what's wrong?"

The muttering of the looking face was suddenly interrupted, "Here," he raised his head and pointed to Qiye's eyebrows, "The filthy breath on the woman's forehead is faintly blue when it goes down to the center of her eyebrows. It shows that the person you were separated from before is not only an important person, but also has some kind of deep bond with you. And this bond...... Most likely from blood relations. ”

"Blood-related, does Mr. mean -" Qiye's eyes slowly widened, but he shook his head again when he saw the looker.

"But judging from the woman's face, she should not be bound by family affection, how can there be a blood relationship...... "The more he looked, the more uncertain he became, and his slanted eyes drifted to another silent green shadow beside him.

Meng Yunsheng's footsteps did not move at all, his hand shook the folding fan unhurriedly, and his eyes fell on the body of the looker.

Qi Ye waited for him to continue.

After only a while, the person who looked at the face retracted his gaze and coughed lightly: "If you can't see it, I won't say it, it's better not to say it than to tell a lie, in short, what I said is the truth." ”

"Liar!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a violent roar came from a distance. Qiye, a few people heard the voice, and saw that the person who came was a rough woman in the market, carrying a broom in her hand, and came to the table where she looked at the face.

"Don't believe him, he's a big liar!"

Before anyone could react, the broom fell on the body of the looker, and the pain made him shrink and flee around the desk, playing a game of "cat and mouse" with the rough woman.

Qiye was about to go to stop it, but his arm was grabbed by a person. She turned her head, and with a puzzled expression, she saw Meng Yunsheng shaking her head slightly at her. She looked back again, and saw that although the rough woman was menacing, she was agile in her appearance, jumping up and down, and never received a stick again.

"Dead liar!" said the rough woman as she paused to raise her broom, panting with her hands crossed over her waist.

The look-alike was also out of breath, "You, tell me, I, how did I lie to you?"

"Last time, last time I asked you to help me calculate where my missing chicken went, and you said it was eaten by my youngest son. But just now the chicken came back on its own, and now it stays in the chicken pen in front of my house. But my youngest son, who was trained by me for no reason, ran out to gamble in anger!

"Your son has a gambling addiction and runs to gamble for money, what does this matter to me? Besides, I was not wrong in the previous hexagram, that chicken was eaten by your son's greed. Now in your chicken pen is an identical chicken he bought. As for the silver taels for buying chickens, he won them by gambling money. Your son's gambling addiction has never stopped, in fact, you know it, you just don't want to believe it. ”

"You, you, you!

The rough woman shouted again, picked up the broom, and struck in his direction. A fierce spirit who looked at the appearance ran away with his legs and feet one step ahead of her. The rough woman scolded and chased after her.

"Don't run, dead liar!

"I didn't lie to you, you didn't believe it. I'm not a dead liarβ€”"

The two voices drifted apart. Qi Ye turned around and asked Meng Yunsheng, "Meng Yunsheng, do you say that what this Mr. looks said is true or false?"

Meng Yunsheng smiled and said as he walked with her: "The line of physiognomy is the same as worshipping the Buddha, and there is faith." But you don't have to pay too much attention to those words. The mortal road is long, and you can only know the taste when you experience it. ”

These words were more divine than the looks, and she nodded as if she didn't understand. After walking for a while, Qiye remembered his stomach that he hadn't finished today, rubbed it, and sighed.

"Alas, in the end, the most regrettable thing today is that I didn't eat peanut cake. Liang Kee's peanut cake ah......"

"You're talking about peanut cake?"

Suddenly, a man stood behind them. Qiye turned around and saw that it was the gentleman who had just run back. Except for two bruised eyes, there was nothing else on his body.

Meng Yunsheng asked him curiously, "Why did the gentleman run back?" Could it be that he has made a clear theory with the woman just now?"

The looker waved his hand disapprerovingly, "Don't worry, I will encounter this kind of thing in three days, and it will not be difficult for me." ”

He straightened up his clothes and said, "By the way, were you talking about peanut cake just now? I know of a shop that makes peanut cakes that are even more delicious than Liang Kee. And at this time, I'm sure you'll be able to eat it. ”

"Whose shop is that?" Qiye asked him.

The looker licked his lower lip and stretched out five fingers, his tone full of pride.

"Five Aunts Peanut Cake Shop"

According to the previous hint given by the looker, this shop is at the junction of the North City and the East Market. There was a narrow alley with only three families, and the most shabby-looking one was the most pastry shop.

The shop is simple and occupies a small area, unlike Leung Kee Pastry Shop, where customers can walk in and choose their favorite pastries. The shop only has a few wooden desks at the entrance. Now, there is a clean white cloth on the desk, and there are no pastries at all, only a sack of flour and a pot of crushed peanuts.

"Two guests, what do you want?"

Xu saw that the two Tsing Yi passers-by standing at the door looked at each other for a long time and did not speak, so the proprietress came out to inquire in person.

Qiye looked up again and looked at the words written on the top. She couldn't help but read it out loud.

"Five-aunt-aunt-flower-raw-cake-shop-"

"That's right, Aunt Five's peanut cake shop. The proprietress smiled softly, "I'm Aunt Five." You're here to buy peanut cakes?"

Qi Ye nodded, a little uncertain, "I don't know if there are any peanut cakes to sell to us?"

"Yes, yes, but it just takes a while for the two of you to wait. The fifth aunt also bowed, "If the two guests are not in a hurry, it is better to wait for a while." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sound of stumbling footsteps coming from the side of the alley, gradually from far to near.

"Here he comes, here he comes. When the fifth aunt heard the footsteps, the smile on the corner of her mouth deepened an inch, "It seems that the two of you came at the right time." ”

Qi Ye and Meng Yunsheng curiously followed her gaze in that direction, and saw a thin gray-robed man walking in the other part of the alley.

"Aunt Five. ”

The gray-robed man greeted the fifth aunt with a smile and walked into the store with a familiar car.

"It's Mr. Xiao Lu here. The fifth aunt said to him enthusiastically, "It just so happened that two guests came, saying that they wanted to eat Mr. Xiao Lu's peanut cake." ”

"Mr. Xiao Lu's peanut cake?" Qi Ye grabbed those words and chewed softly.

The thin little Mr. Lu also heard these words, looked at the two people outside the desk, raised the corners of his mouth just right, nodded and signaled, then rolled up his sleeves and reached out to the bag of flour.
