There was indeed a large piece of peanut cake left on one side of the board. Aunt Five's eyes looked over, and she chuckled and said, "These peanut cakes have been set in advance. ”

"It turned out to be set by someone. Qi Ye muttered, and as he was talking, he saw Mr. Xiao Lu coming out of the back room.

"Aunt Five, how are the peanut cakes selling today?"

"Of course, it's all sold out. The fifth aunt was beaming with joy on her face, and subconsciously touched her bulging purse, "I said Mr. Xiao Lu, this drawer of peanut cakes is not enough! When to make a little more, the guests are also happy." ”

Mr. Xiao Lu bowed to her slightly, and then lifted the hanging gray hairband to his head, and only smiled faintly, "It's Aunt Fifth who gives me face too much." But my aunt also knows my rules, the sunset is solstice, make a drawer, the time is just right. ”

After hearing this, the fifth aunt stopped persuading her, and gently bowed her head and said "yes". She turned sideways and carefully wrapped the peanut cake on the board with oiled paper, took out a few copper plates from her purse and handed them to Mr. Xiao Lu along with the oiled paper packets.

Mr. Xiao Lu only took the peanut cake wrapped in oiled paper, but pushed back the hand that handed him the copper plate. Seeing this, the fifth aunt took a step ahead of him and said, "Mr. Xiao Lu take it! Mr. always makes cakes for my small shop without a penny, and I am a little embarrassed." Besides, since my husband came, the business of my small shop has been getting better and better day by day. This little meaning, please accept it. ”

"Auntie, you're here again. He took a step back, held the oiled paper bag in both hands and bowed to Aunt Five, "We agreed before, come to Auntie's place to make cakes, I will contribute, you prepare the food, and let me bring some back after that." ”

"That being said, I can't go back and let my husband do it in vain. My husband worked hard in the private school during the day, and after school, he would come to my small shop to make cakes. I don't have much to help Mr., so Mr. should take the money......"

Xu is saw that the more she talked, and the steps followed, Mr. Xiao Lu stepped back again and again, and his face began to become solemn, "Aunt Five, since I have made an appointment with you for three chapters, I will never accept this money." If you do this again, I won't come tomorrow. ”

"Don't, don't!"

The person in front of him looks weak, but in the end, he is a reader full of ink, and he has his own principles and bottom line. The fifth aunt sighed and put the copper coin back in her purse, "Mr. has his own reason, auntie, I won't force Mr." ”

"Thank you Aunt Fifth for your understanding. Mr. Xiao Lu waved at her again, then looked at the heavy sky outside and said, "It's not too early, so I'll say goodbye to my aunt first." ”

The fifth aunt nodded, waved at him, and said, "Sir, go slowly." ”

He finally bowed to the fifth aunt, and when he turned around, he saw Qi Ye and Meng Yunsheng on the side, and they also bowed their heads lightly, leaving with the remaining peanut cake.

After Mr. Xiao Lu walked away in the alley outside the store, the fifth aunt's gaze gradually retracted, and she whispered with admiration and approval: "Mr. Xiao Lu is really a person who keeps his promises and has a high demeanor. ”

Hearing this, Qi Ye and Meng Yunsheng glanced at each other, and knew that there was a strong interest in each other's eyes.

Qi Ye is a girl's house in the end, and she couldn't hide her words, so she blinked her eyes and asked the fifth aunt who was distracted: "Aunt Five, since peanut cake is so popular, why doesn't that Mr. Xiao Lu make more?"

The fifth aunt raised her eyelids and came back to her senses, seeing that the two guests who had arrived first had not gone away. While packing up the board, she said to them, "I see that the two of you are a little eye-catching, and they are guests who come to Bianzhou for the first time. That Mr. Xiao Lu just now was not simple. Not only does he know how to make peanut cakes, but he is also a well-known private school teacher in this area. ”

"Mr. Private School?" Qi Ye recalled the appearance of the man he had just seen, and suddenly said with a sense of enlightenment, "Yes, no wonder I saw that he had the temperament of a literati and the arrogance of a scholar." ”

"The girl also saw it?" Aunt Fifth lit up her eyes, put down the cloth in her hand, and took a few steps closer to them.

"Don't look at Mr. Xiao Lu, he is a good person. All the talents with ink in Bianliang went to Beijing to take the exam, and only Mr. Xiao Lu was willing to stay here to teach and educate people. He is a good learner, and the private school is also very fair. Mr. Xiao Lu's private school accepts both male and female dolls, especially female dolls. The female doll reads, and he doesn't charge money. The boy doll only needs to give him three litres of rice every month to feed the children at noon. ”

"Open a private school to educate people, both men and women, and there is no class in education. This is the first time I've seen such a gentleman. ”

"Don't talk about girls, I've lived most of my life, and I only know that there is only one such gentleman in Bianzhou City, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to find a second one in the whole world. Whenever she talked about the gentleman who had just come, Aunt Five's slightly furrowed face was full of tenderness, and she slowly frowned at this moment.

"But it's a pity to say that it's a pity, Mr. Xiao Lu has been working for his private school for eight years. Think about it in a few days, and the children he first taught will be able to go to Beijing to catch the exam. He has great talents, and he is dignified, and he has not yet married a family, and he still has to take care of a ...... Alas......"

When the fifth aunt read this, she stopped her mouth with a sigh in time, shook her head lightly and lowered her eyelids. When she looked at Qiye and Meng Yunsheng again, the feeling of regret had been thrown out of her mind, and she showed the enthusiastic smile she had when she first met.

"A woman in the market always likes to say something close to her customers. In short, this Mr. Xiao Lu is kind and kind, and the guests like to eat the peanut cake he makes. The fifth aunt dared to say that the peanut cake made by Mr. Xiao Lu was the first peanut cake in Bianliang. So the two guests didn't come to the wrong place. ”

"It's delicious, it's just too little. Poor me, I still taste the fragrance between my lips and tongue. I'd like to bring some to my friends back home. ”

"No way, each person is limited to two peanut cakes per day. This is the rule of the shop, and it is also the rule set by Mr. Xiao Lu. ”

"In that case, the two of us will come back tomorrow evening to visit Aunt Five's peanut cake shop. Qi Ye raised his eyebrows and clenched his fists.

"Extremely welcome, extremely welcome. ”

The fifth aunt sent the two of them out of the store. Before leaving, Meng Yunsheng shook the folding fan, turned around and asked her again, "Aunt Five, I don't know where Mr. Xiao Lu's private school is?"

There are always legends in the storyteller's mouth. Meng Yunsheng said that as a storyteller, he also has a pair of discerning eyes that can find good stories. And in this regard, Qiye when she was still a little girl summed up four words, that is, "love bag inquiry".

Just like at this moment, Qi Ye and Meng Yunsheng were walking on the path that the fifth aunt pointed out to the two of them just now.

Qi Ye smiled and said to the person beside him: "What, Meng Yunsheng, your addiction to asking questions has come up again?"

"You also said just now, both men and women, there is no class of education, but I am afraid that there is no private school gentleman like him in the whole four continents. Girl, don't you want to find out?"

"Of course I do. The woman said, her pace quickening even more.

The sky was already dark, and the moonlight floated on the willow tops, and the falling brightness gradually illuminated the somewhat thin figure on the path ahead.

"Meng Yunsheng, look-" Qi Ye leaned down slightly, pointed at the figure, and lowered his voice a little.

The thin figure walking on the path in front of him was Mr. Xiao Lu.
