"Boss, let's have some fried chicken fillets."

"Young man, do you think this is OK?"

In front of the chicken fillet stall, the young stall owner pointed at the chopping board, and there were a lot of raw chicken fillets with powder on the chopping board.

"Share it."

After the above, Luman glanced at the electronic scale. This type of platform scale has digital green screens on both sides, showing the price and weight numbers, but now it is passive, and the side facing Luman is gray.

"Okay, there are twenty yuan in total."

People in Cao County often sigh when recalling the past prices, "The money in the past is worth (worth) money."

20 yuan is a small amount after more than ten years, but now it is 2006. Lu Man remembers that the house price of his own house is 780 yuan per square meter, and the general salary paid by his own clothing store to the salesperson is 600 yuan per month, and the skilled clothing worker is 800 yuan per month.

This is worth calculating with the stall owner.

Lu Man looked at it and said, "There are too many of these, so we are only two of us, so we can't eat them. The boss will help you get the half."

The stall owner took more than half of the price from the scale, leaving only a small portion: "Is it okay to keep so many?"

The stall owner glanced at the road quickly. Although he was about 1.8 meters tall, his face was white and comfortable, and his stubble was shaved cleanly, and he could tell that he was still green. He was a typical young man, and he confirmed that he was just a middle school student who was not very old and had little experience.

“12 pieces.”

Gu Lingyi, behind Lu Man's arms, was so anxious that she pulled Lu Man's arms. The amount and price were not matched without looking at the numbers.

The stall owner picked up the net and took the fry and put it in the pot.

Lu Man raised his eyebrows and smiled and said, "I didn't say I want to weigh the scales, I want the one left."

The stall owner's hand stopped in the air, and he paused for two seconds before saying, "I'll weigh it again..."

"No need." Lu Man smiled, "I just finished weighing it, all of it is twenty yuan, this one is twelve yuan, and the other one must be eight yuan."

Lu Man continued: "Your family has been selling here for several years. If you have a reputation, the scale will definitely be accurate and we can trust it!"

"Hahaha!" Several nearby stall owners all like to listen to the news and talk about the mountains. They were tilting their heads to watch the fun. After hearing Lu Man's words, they laughed out loud.

The young stall owner had a bad face, but Lu was quick and put the money in his collection box, so he had to fry the chicken fillet with a stern face.

This stall is already close to No. 2 Middle School. After he took the stall, he met any of the students he met who couldn't wake up. He read a silly book and was always timid in buying something.

I am used to cheating people, but I didn't expect to meet someone who didn't play by the rules today. I was not prepared for a while and got myself into it.

"Little nephew." The old uncle, the stall owner selling vegetables and pancakes, picked up the white towel around his neck to wipe his sweat, and pointed at the chicken fillet stall with his hands holding the towel. "Where can you walk by the river, you can't wet your shoes? You'd better stand on the dry shore and be steady."

Standing on the dry shore, the implication is of course to do business in full swing.

"Oh, children nowadays have many evil intentions." The young stall owner admitted that he had a loss and wanted to make a fuss. "I was smart when I was a child, but I might not be able to grow up."

"You!" Before Lu Man said anything, Gu Lingyi, who had been hiding behind him, suddenly became angry and glared at the stall owner.

Lu Man looked at her in surprise. This guy was obviously timid and afraid. He used the words before rebirth to describe it as a full-level social phobia. Now he was like a little beast that only protects food, and suddenly rushed forward.

Lu Man gently pulled her wrist and shook her to indicate that she didn't have to worry. Gu Lingyi's courage was also one-time. After lasting for a few seconds, she was deflated and hid half of the body behind him.

"We are half a pound, half a pound." Lu Man kept smiling and spoke to the old uncle of the vegetable pancake stall next to him, "Uncle, once a pound was sixteen taels, do you know how these 16 taels came from?"

"I haven't been to school, but I don't know this, it was passed down in ancient times." Uncle Cai Fangbing shook his head and smiled, "You know, let me tell me?"

Lu Man slowly said: "The ancient scales of sixteen taels per pound were taken, and the sum of the Big Dipper, the Six South Dipper, and the Three Stars of Fu Lu and Shou. It is to warn people not to lack pounds or less. One, two, three taels are to damage blessings, and a few fortunes are to reduce longevity. If you lack it, you will lose Nan Dipper."

Uncle Caipancai was used to seeing people coming and going, and immediately found a way out to whom was saying this, so he simply became a supporting actor: "Wow, the old saying goes, Nandou is the main source of life and death, and no matter how lacking it is, it is extremely indispensable. This blessing is better than wealth!"

The chicken fillet stall owner had just put the fried food in a paper bag when he heard the conversation between them and his face changed.

His father and old stall owner accidentally fell into the hospital where he was admitted. He was injured for 100 days. When will he be able to get better? There is no accurate number yet.

Lu Man took the chicken fillet bag and two bamboo sticks he handed over, and called Gu Lingyi beside him to leave.

Gu Lingyi lowered her head and thoughtfully. Lu Man took advantage of her inattention and put one hand behind her back and broke one of the two bamboo sticks into three or five pieces.

"Here, eat while it's hot." Luman handed her the only bamboo stick left into the chicken fillet bag.

Gu Ling weighed it in her hand a few times, and showed a surprised look: "This one is close to 15 yuan."

She poked a piece of fried chicken fillet with a bamboo stick and filled it into her mouth with a "ah woo".

After taking a few more bites, Gu Lingyi looked up and said to Lu Man: "Brother, after the college entrance examination, you seem to have become cheerful and confident."

"Oh? Is that?"

She felt that the change in the road was due to the end of the college entrance examination and the academic pressure disappeared.

"If it was before the college entrance examination, you wouldn't dare to take the initiative to make trouble for the adults. You would listen to me and change your family in shame."

Gu Lingyi gave him a light look: "How could he be like now? He would even urge me to say 'Same opinion and listen to you'. Humph, you will only deceive me."

My brother will make trouble. But she doesn't hate it, but instead thinks that getting along like this will be even more interesting.

"You can't react by yourself, you can't blame me." Lu Man shrugged.

Gu Lingyi smiled and said, "It's good that way. You are full of worries in the whole third year of high school. I'm very... that, Jiaer and I are very worried about you."

Lu Manxin said that after living for at least ten years, he would have to grow by 100 million points.

Introversion is not a bad thing, but unfortunately, ordinary people are not allowed to be introverted in the future.

Gu Lingyi eliminated the snacks and looked back by chance. Suddenly she became happy and hit Lu Bai's arm with her elbow: "Brother, the scale of the stall owner is bright. He has adjusted the scale back!"

Lu Man nodded, and it seemed that his words were effective: "This may also be the only benefit of feudal superstition, so that those who do bad things can be awe."

...

While eating and chatting along the way, Gu Lingyi glanced at Lu Man from time to time, but she felt that it was very easy to meet Lu Man today, and in the end she didn't dare to raise her eyes.

My brother, who used to be Mu Mu, didn't look at her when he walked, so why did he look at her from time to time? Gu Lingyi shook her head, it should be an illusion.

As he approached his doorstep, Gu Lingyi couldn't eat it anymore, so she held the paper bag of chicken fillets and swayed back and forth.

Luman saw that she was in a good mood and could tease her for a while before parting.

"Ling Yi, I haven't eaten a bite yet."

"Ah~" Gu Lingyi realized, "Brother, there is one in front of my house, so I'll buy you a new one."

"But I want to eat now."

She opened the chicken paper bag and whispered in confusion: "Strange, why did you only give one label for the amount of two people?"

"Ah—" Lu Man opened his mouth and signaled that he needed to feed him.

Gu Lingyi panicked and took a short step back: "You eat it yourself."

"I'm holding the medicine." Lu Man pretended to be struggling, as if the orange-red red in his arms was very heavy, "It's too heavy, and he can't even lift his hands."

Gu Lingyi was very discomfortable to his shamelessness. She picked up a medicinal material that weighed at a few ounces. How heavy could it be?

No wonder I am so kind today and take the initiative to ask for something to be carried.

Routines, all routines!

"No...no." Gu Lingyi's face turned slightly red, "And there was only one bamboo stick. I've used it, brother."

"Just use your signature."

"no!"

She tried hard to recall, remembering that it was the snack that Lu Man took from the stall at that time. The bamboo sticks were very long and were tied to the pillars of the stall, so it was very conspicuous. She clearly saw that the stall owner gave two.

Gu Lingyi's eyes widened slightly, and she was surprised how the boy's skin could be so thick!

"Brother, you deliberately made bad..."

Lu Man interrupted her and said, "There is a pointed end on one end and a flat end. Wouldn't you just use the other end that you haven't used before?"

"emmmmm..." Gu Lingyi thought about it and it made sense, and she refused several times. She was afraid that she would make her sad if she refused.

She turned the sign, poked up a piece, and handed it to Lu Qian's mouth: "Give it."

Lu Man chewed a few snacks and thought that Lu Xun's famous saying is really insightful: Chinese people always like to reconcile and compromise.

For example, if you ask Gu Lingyi to feed you directly with the same bamboo stick, she will definitely not allow it; but if you advocate changing one, she will feel that it is a reconciliation and is willing to feed you.

Even this silly man was just fed, and y was too close to the two of them, so she could not feed them.

Lu Man looked reluctant on her little face. The more she did this, the more she wanted to bully her.

"Hmm? It doesn't taste much. This stall owner deliberately didn't add salt." Lu Man said deliberately.
