"Tsuen Zhu is an edible red stone that can be ground into a powder and added to eating can delay its deterioration. The taste period of ordinary peanut cake is only ten days, and if you want to reach half a moon or even longer, adding some vermilion powder is a way. I just didn't expect ......"

"It's just that I didn't expect that while the vermilion powder prolongs the taste period of peanut cake, it also destroys its taste and texture. Qiye continued with her words.

"Yes, I didn't expect it. Mr. Xiao Lu shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "This road is not working, and I can only find another way." ”

She turned around and was about to take back the remaining peanut cake, but she heard Qiye stop her.

"Hey, what's wrong with your back, is there something dirty on it?"

Mr. Xiao Lu paused, and felt that the person behind him had stepped forward to carefully inspect the robe behind her. She thought about it for a moment and said, "It should be that I accidentally bumped into something when I was taking the peanut cake from the baked kang just now, and it didn't get in the way." ”

"Then what's the matter, there's a lot of darkness behind this! Mr. is a scholar again, and he pays the most attention to etiquette and demeanor. Qiye wiped the stain with his fingers for a long time and couldn't wipe it off, "I'll get a basin of water for Mr. to wash." ”

She was about to say no, when another voice came from the side, "Oh, Miss Qi is a guest, how can this little matter trouble the girl? I'll let the guy go about fetching water, and I'll go back and get a clean dress for Mr. ”

Before Mr. Xiao Lu could speak, the fifth aunt quickly beckoned the man to go to the backyard to fetch water, and the fifth aunt herself went into the house to get clean clothes. She had no choice but to sigh and shake her head, resigned herself to the arrangement of these people.

The fifth aunt who went to find clean clothes had already had a stomach full of doubts. Every time the girl in Tsing Yi came, her eyes were glued to Mr. Xiao Lu, and she cared about Mr. Lu very much. I thought she was a couple with the boy behind her, but I didn't expect it...... And Mr. treats her differently, but the relationship between them is not the kind of affection between ordinary men and women...... What's going on here?

The fifth aunt shook her head, thinking that it was better to find clean clothes quickly.

Business in front of the pastry shop is booming, the peanut cake on the baking kang is taken down one drawer after another, and the number of customers gathered around the board is also increasing.

At this time, there was a commotion behind the bustling crowd.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Qi Ye was handing the oiled paper bag in his hand to a guest, and when he saw that he had just taken it, he stumbled and was pushed aside. She saw several men dressed like housemates crowding unruly at the front of the crowd, and a familiar woman striding out of it.

"I said why is the shop so deserted today, it turns out that the big guys have come here to eat our Liang Kee's peanut cake. ”

Although there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, there were thorns in her words, and the discerning people around her knew the meaning, and they couldn't help but talk about it.

Qi Ye never thought that this woman would not only be able to go to a private school to provoke for the sake of her own shop's business, but now she also dared to make trouble on the street, wantonly insulting Mr. Xiao Lu, clenching her ten fingers white, and screaming unevenly.

"Liang Sanniang, everyone is doing business according to their own abilities, you have spewed blood several times, don't you think it will damage your image as a famous lady?"

"You!"

Liang Sanniang has never heard others say that she has damaged the façade of Liang Ji, and the anger in her heart "poof" came up.

"Little girl, I'm talking to her, what's the matter with you, an outsider!"

"Why don't you leave it to me......" Qi Ye just wanted to step forward, but was pulled by Meng Yunsheng behind him. She glanced back and saw Meng Yunsheng shaking his head at her, his eyes tightened, and he saw that although Mr. Xiao Lu's face was cold, he took a step forward and stared straight at the woman in the crowd.

Everyone heard Mr. Xiao Lu say calmly: "Today, the shop opened early, and if Liang Sanniang also came to buy peanut cakes, she is naturally welcome." But if not, please ask Liang Sanniang to carry her feet and go, and I will not send it far. ”

She said it so hard to find fault with her, and even if she was angry, she didn't know where to go. Liang Sanniang raised her eyebrows and snorted coldly.

"I ask you, who are you?"

Such a question is unclear, and the people around him are confused. Qiye frowned, and secretly wondered what she meant.

But Mr. Xiao Lu's expression did not make any waves, and he only said: "Who am I, shouldn't Liang Sanniang know best?"

"That's good. Liang Sanniang's eyes widened, and she said with some seriousness, "If you have three ...... in your heart If you still have a trace of respect for Liang Rufa, you listen to me and close this store. It's not that you don't know him, the shop has only been opened with great difficulty, and I can't tolerate a little bit of error. ”

"And," she said, her words intensified, and every word was particularly clear, "I advise you to shut up that private school as well, and think carefully about who you are." ”

Everyone listened more and more confused, it seemed that there was another hidden relationship between Liang Sanniang and Mr. Xiao Lu, could it be ...... Countless pairs of eyeballs "purr" around the two of them. And Qi Ye has guessed a few points since he listened to Meng Yunsheng's gossip that day, and now when he sees this scene, he has already understood it in his heart. She was now worried that she was sweating for the people next to her, and she was even more afraid that Liang San Niang would say something that shouldn't be said.

Mr. Xiao Lu was originally faint, but since the person in front of him talked about the private school, a gap suddenly opened in his eyes.

"Then in what capacity are you standing here today?" the hand under the gray robe gradually clenched into a fist, "My business has nothing to do with you, an outsider. ”

"You are a person!" Liang Sanniang raised her finger and pointed to her nose and said angrily, "You don't want to give you face, do you have to ask me to make it clear! That's right, we are all outsiders! You had nothing to do with us eight years ago! In that case, why do you still use the craftsmanship of your ancestors to deceive here?"

"Swagger?" everyone let out a cry of surprise, "This, what does this mean, how can it be more and more outrageous......"

Mr. Xiao Lu didn't seem to want to deal with this kind of vexatious behavior anymore, so he lowered his eyebrows silently and continued to wrap peanut cakes with oiled paper.

With a "bang", her hands slapped on the board, Liang Sanniang angrily faced Leng Mian and gave her an ultimatum, "Let me ask you again, do you close this broken shop?"

She didn't stop moving, and said without raising her head: "I'm not the boss, and it's not up to me to close the door or not." I don't care which peanut cake the guests like to eat. ”

"Good, good!"

Liang Sanniang said a few "yes" in a row, her cheeks flushed, and the corners of her mouth smiled, "Since you are so tough, you shouldn't be afraid that I will tell this matter and expose your true colors." ”

Mr. Xiao Lu paused, but still did not raise his eyes, and continued to do his own thing.

Qi Ye on the side was in a hurry, and was about to come out of the store, and said: "Liang Sanniang, you ......" Meng Yunsheng behind her pulled her arm tightly, she frowned and was very dissatisfied. However, Meng Yunsheng only shook his head slightly.

And in an instant, the dizzy Liang Sanniang had already broken the jar and told the shocking secret.

"Come and see, I'm going to expose her true colors today. Mr. Xiao Lu, who you say runs a private school and is respected, is actually a woman. A woman teaches, and you've been deceived by her for eight whole years!"

Under this sound, Qi Ye froze in place, his face pale. She also clearly felt the person next to her bow his head and tremble.

There was a sudden silence all around, and the crowd looked different, as if they had been immobilized.
