The four seasons in Xi'an are distinct, but the spring and autumn are relatively short, and it often feels that it doesn't take long for the weather to get warmer after just taking off the cotton clothes.

Just on Mayday, Lu You's clothes were soaked with sweat and clinging to his body, making him very uncomfortable.

In the past two days, he and Xu An took turns watching in Nanweifang. Stalking this kind of thing has never been what Lu You is good at, he is impatient and careless, just like now, he is hot and sleepy, and he can't wait to break into the Lao Ji dry goods store, beat up the people in the shop, and force them to tell Mei Yatou's whereabouts.

However, despite the burning fire, he could only concentrate on the shop and did not leave for half a step.

Lu You helplessly wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, he couldn't figure it out, aren't those people on the street hot? Why didn't you sweat a drop?

Suddenly, the corners of Lu You's eyes jumped violently, and he quickly rubbed his eyes, he was not mistaken, it was really her! The girl surnamed Mei finally appeared!

Mei Shengxue is still the little girl who didn't have a head, exactly the same as a few years ago, she didn't grow taller, she didn't get fat, she was petite and exquisite, she was very inconspicuous in the crowd, if she hadn't walked into Lao Ji, Lu You might let her slip away under her nose.

Lu You wanted to follow up with Lao Ji to find out, but he didn't know if Mei Shengxue would recognize him.

Although he and Mei Shengxue have only met once in the broken temple, but if they have seen it, they have seen it, ordinary people may have forgotten it a long time ago, will a demon like Mei Shengxue forget?

Lu You was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks, and when he didn't know what to do, he saw Fang Fei and Xiaomei.

These two little girls each hold a candy man in their hands, and they stick out their little tongues and lick the candy man while walking, like two little horn dogs.

Seeing them, Lu You was stunned at first, and then understood that the place where Miss Shen went to school was near here, and these two little girls took advantage of Miss Shen's class, and they slipped out to play, and last time Fang Fei saw Mei Shengxue here.

Luyou's eyes lit up.

"Hurry up, you two came just in time, do the uncle a favor, go in and see what the girl surnamed Mei is doing."

"Mei's conscience is in it?" Fang Fei immediately came to her senses, but immediately remembered something, like a deflated leather bow, "Mei conscience knows me, I can't go in, this matter can only rely on the little sister, but the little sister is young, it is too dangerous to let her in." ”

"Dangerous size, you see that shop is full of people, and I don't dare to do anything to my little sister if I borrow their guts!" Lu You was angry, Fang Fei, this girl was deliberate.

"Well, Sister Fangfei, I can do it, let me in." The little sister is eager to try, the three of them are here to repay the kindness, she is the youngest, she can't block the knife for Miss Shen, it's okay to do some small things.

Fang Fei patted her and said, "Mei Liangxin is about the same height as her, she looks like she is seven or eight years old, you be careful, she is ruthless." ”

Lu You added: "Mei Yatou is wearing a bean green shirt, the shop owner's surname is Lao, in his early forties, thin and small, the tent is surnamed Cai, he is a thin old man, and there is a woman who can take care of things, in her twenties, all call her Miss Mei, and there are six other guys, all of whom wear green cloth shirts." ”

The little sister nodded, held the candy man, and trotted into the Lao Ji dry goods store.

At this time, the business was at its best, and the men were smiling all over their faces, and they were talking about something around a few people in silk robes, who seemed to be the stewards of a large family in charge of purchasing.

In the corner of the shop, there is a small counter two feet square, there is a chair behind the counter, and there is an apron on the back of the chair.

The little sister looked around, but she didn't see the woman, nor the little girl who was about the same age as her, and there was no boss and account room as the roaders said, but there were a lot of six guys.

There is a door at the east end of the shop, and a curtain hangs outside the door.

The little sister looked at the guys, who were haggling with the people who looked like they were in charge, and they were very busy.

Taking advantage of the fact that the guys were not paying attention, the little sister bent her waist and ran to the front of the curtain, and gently lifted the corner of the curtain to look inside.

Outside the curtain was actually a courtyard, and there was a huge long table in the courtyard, and there were more than a dozen large baskets on the table, and in the baskets were all kinds of dry goods.

The little sister was hesitating to go into the yard to take a look, her neck tightened, and then her feet were off the ground.

Someone grabbed her by the collar from behind and lifted her up.

"Ahhhh The little sister kicked her hands and feet and shouted.

The man scolded, "Where did the little rabbit come from, sneakily stealing things?" “

It turned out that he thought she was a thief.

It's not the first time that my little sister has been treated as a thief on the streets.

She cried out: "I'm not stealing, I'm coming to my dad, my dad just came here." ”

"Your father?" The man behind him obviously also saw that the little sister was neatly dressed and clean, and she was a serious child, so he put the little sister down and asked, "Your father is here?" ”

The little sister turned around, and there were still tears on her little face, and she saw who was holding her.

This is a tall and burly strong man, the figure is about the same as the road friend, he is wearing a silk robe, and the outside of the stewards are almost the same dress, but his shoes are very dirty, not only dirty, but also stained with the yellow mud that has been dried, Xi'an city is a stone road extending in all directions, these yellow mud is obviously not stepped on in the city, he should be from the city, and has walked a lot of roads.

The little sister sobbed: "I followed my father to buy peppercorns and star anise, I saw my father enter this shop, but after I bought the candy man, my father was not in the shop." ”

The man understood that the child's father should also be a big family's purchaser, and he took the child out to buy the goods, and he was separated from the child in a blink of an eye.

He pointed to the stewards who were bargaining with the guys, and said: "The people who come to buy are in the front shop, and the back yard is our warehouse, no one will go to the back, since your father is not in the shop, it is to go to another house, you can look elsewhere." ”

The little sister was still holding the candy man in her hand, she wiped her tears, and was about to go out, when she suddenly heard a voice from behind: "Whose little girl is this, why are you crying?" ”

The voice came from the courtyard, crisp and sweet, it was a woman.

The little sister cried loudly just now, thinking that she was heard by this woman.

The little sister turned her head and saw a woman walking over, the woman was old, wearing a jujube red armor, a white silk shirt, combing a single screw bun, and inserting a crepe silk flower the size of a wine cup.

Beside her, followed a seven or eight-year-old little girl, the little girl was wearing a bean green shirt, her face was immature, but her eyes were sharp, but she was looking up and down at the little girl in front of her who looked about the same age as her with the candy man.
