The two brothers and sisters of Yu Shuang walked overnight, and at noon, they finally arrived at the west gate of Yulin City.

The sun is scorching, the sky is clear, and it is really a good weather.

Yu Shuang stood at the gate of the city and looked up at the sky, wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and turned his eyes to the city again, only to see the three block letters "Yulin City" on the city head, he looked at these three big characters, sighed softly, and felt a sense of relief.

The location of Yulin City is in the Central Plains, the west city gate is full of people, business travelers are majority, and the cries of selling come and go, which is really more lively than Yancheng.

Yu Xueying was bouncing all the way and was very happy, and she didn't stop for a while, the first time she went out of the city, she was really curious about the things outside, and when she saw the goods on the stall, she had to go through it carefully, and she would go through the rouge gouache, and she would pick up the fruits and vegetables on the stall and take a look.

Yu Shuang looked at Yu Xueying's scurrying figure, couldn't help but smile bitterly, and shouted loudly: "Ying'er, we are going to the city, there are a lot of people, don't run around." ”

Yu Xueying smiled back, held a red candle as thick as his arm and waved it at him next to the stall, and echoed: "Brother, come here quickly, there are good things for you to see!"

Yu Shuang smiled bitterly, shook her head, and walked over slowly.

Yu Shuang took Yu Xueying's little hand in the crowd, glanced at her, and said, "Don't run around, there are so many people here, if you get lost, where will I go to find you." He sighed softly and continued, "Let's go to business first, go to Uncle Pan first." ”

Yu Xueying turned her head and stuck out her tongue at him with a smile, made a grimace, and smug a "hum", with the momentum of "come and hit me if you are not convinced", and then turned her head to look for something new.

Yu Shuang glared at her, naturally she was reluctant to beat this naughty and disobedient sister, and she couldn't bear to scold. I had to take her little hand and continue to walk towards the city.

Yu Xueying walked behind Yu Shuang, and suddenly dragged him vigorously.

Yu Shuang was startled, and her sister's coquettish voice came from her ears: "Brother, I want to eat that!"

He turned his head to look, only to see his sister suddenly point to a string of rock sugar gourds and stop, swallow saliva with bright eyes, turn her face sideways, her bright eyes did not blink, and she looked at him expectantly.

Yu Shuang glanced at her, and said angrily: "I just ate noodles, can you still eat them?"

Yu Xueying hurriedly nodded and grinned: "You can eat, you can eat." ”

At this time, the boss who sold rock sugar gourds next to him smiled and said: "Little brother, let's try a string, it's not sweet and doesn't cost money, in our Yulin City, with my craft, I recognize the first, but no one dares to recognize the second." ”

Yu Shuang glanced at the boss when she heard this, and saw that the boss was dressed plainly, with dark skin, and looking at herself with a smile on his face.

Yu Shuang smiled bitterly and turned her head to look at her sister, Yu Xueying's eyes were full of waves at the moment, with an aggrieved look, a stubborn old man, and a posture of "If you don't buy it for me, I'll cry to you".

Yu Xueying knew in her heart that this method, in her brother's place, was tried and tested, and there was no time that it was unsuccessful.

Sure enough, after Yu Shuang glanced at Yu Xueying, he stretched out his hand to his waist, Yu Xueying was overjoyed when she saw this, turned around and stood on tiptoe, tilted her head and pulled out a string of bright red rock sugar gourds, and then put one in her mouth, and suddenly her mouth was full of relish, with a smile on her pretty face and a satisfied expression.

"Brother, give it to you. Yu Xueying said and took out another one from the bamboo skewer, sent it to Yu Shuang's mouth, and said with a smile: "Don't lie to you, it's really delicious." ”

Yu Shuang paid the silver taels, smiled at the boss, turned his head to look at Yu Xueying, and said in a low voice: "I don't eat, you can eat." ”

Yu Xueying's eyebrows raised slightly, and she said coquettishly: "No, eat one, Ying'er didn't lie to you, it's really delicious." As he spoke, he forcibly stuffed the rock sugar gourd in his hand into his brother's mouth.

Yu Shuang chewed twice, a smile leaked from her face, looked at her sister and stuck out her tongue, reached out and touched her head.

The two took a few steps forward, and Yu Shuang suddenly stopped, as if he suddenly remembered something. He turned around and asked the boss again, "Big brother, do you know that there is a person named Pan Xincheng in the city?"

The boss smiled when he heard this: "Of course I know, I see that you two brothers and sisters look like they have just arrived here, right?"

The two brothers and sisters nodded, and Yu Xueying put a rock sugar gourd into her mouth and muttered, "Yes, it's the first time we've come here, can you please tell us where he is?"

The boss suddenly straightened his clothes, a trace of respect flashed over his chubby face, and his right index finger pointed to one place, and said: "Follow this road, until you reach the end, you can see the 'Pan Mansion' when you turn left, but he has been in a bad mood for the past two days, you strangers, I don't know if you can see it." ”

The two brothers and sisters were stunned when they heard this, and Yu Shuang asked, "Why?"

The boss hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "What are you looking for him?" I heard that in the past two days, I don't know who in the mansion has died, and he is mourning in the whole mansion. ”

"Funeral?" said Yu Shuang's brother and sister at the same time.

Yu Shuang pondered for a moment and continued to ask, "Uncle, why did you just say that we couldn't see him?

The boss laughed twice and said, "No, this one...... Go and you'll find out. After that, he no longer paid attention to the two of them, and shouted to the crowd on the road: "Those who come from the south, those who go north, the king of rock sugar gourds, don't be sweet and don't want money......

Yu Shuang was puzzled, knowing that she couldn't ask why, so she picked up her sister and followed the path he pointed out.

Yu Xueying walked on the road, spit out a kernel casually, and asked Yu Shuang, "Brother, do you say Uncle Pan is a good person or a bad person?"

Yu Shuang pondered for a moment, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know about this, my mother said in the letter that we should go to him, it shouldn't be a bad person." ”

Yu Xueying said again: "If it's not a bad guy, how can the uncle say that we can't meet?"

Yu Shuang glanced at her, touched her head, and said, "He said that someone in the Pan Mansion died, I'm afraid it's a little sad." It is a little inconvenient to bother him at this time. ”

Yu Xueying said: "Then what should we do?

Yu Shuang paused and said, "At the moment, we don't have much entanglement on our bodies, and there is no other way than to find him." ”

Yu Xueying responded, and the two continued to walk forward in the crowd.

They walked in the direction pointed by the boss for about half an hour before they saw a ** mansion.

Walking closer, Yu Shuang took a closer look, and the first thing he saw was the gate that was almost surrounded by white silk, and the plaque on the door of the house was written with the word "Pan Mansion", and the surrounding of the plaque was also wrapped in white silk. Even the two stone lions squatting on the ground at the door were dressed in linen filial piety clothes.

The door of Pan's Mansion opened to the north, and a beautiful girl who looked about the same age as Yu Xueying walked out of the gate. She was dressed in a goose yellow dress, holding a stack of books in her hand, walked to a corner not far from the door, and suddenly threw all the books in her hand on the ground.

After the girl discarded the book, she pointed to the book and said a few words angrily, a little far away, the Yu Shuang brothers and sisters couldn't really hear it, and only after a while, the girl walked leisurely to the house again.

Yu Xueying frowned slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Brother, what is she doing, why did you throw all the books on the ground?"

Yu Shuang's face also had a puzzled look, shook his head and said, "I don't know, let's go, let's go over and ask if this is it." ”

Yu Xueying nodded, followed Yu Shuang, and walked towards the girl.

Seeing that the girl had gone up the steps and was about to enter the mansion, Yu Shuang shouted at the bottom of the steps: "Miss, may I ask if this is the Pan Mansion?"

The girl stopped, turned her head, and glanced at him, but did not answer him.

Yu Shuang walked closer, and only then did she see the girl's face clearly, her pretty face was lean, her starry eyes and eyebrows, her face was delicate, her skin was like condensed fat, and she was a beautiful embryo.

Yu Shuang arched her hand and said with a smile: "Girl, I wonder if this is Pan Xincheng's mansion?"

The girl looked at him carefully, snorted coldly, raised her eyebrows, and said coldly: "Who are you? ”

Yu Shuang and Yu Xueying glanced at each other when they heard this, and nodded, knowing that they had found the right place.

Yu Shuang paused and said to the woman: "My brother and sister are from Yancheng, and my father is Yu Jianghe. ”

The girl sneered, glared at Yu Shuang, and said casually: "I don't know how many people from Swallow City, Wang Bacheng, and Crow City have come to Chengji, if I report to you one by one, my father must not be exhausted to death by you people, you go quickly, I will be angry when I see you." ”。

Yu Shuang was stunned, but he didn't expect this woman to be so rude, he didn't come back to his senses for a while.

Yu Xueying frowned, took a step forward, and sneered: "The people of Crow City in Turtle City know that they are not good people when they hear it, they all come to find your father, but it is conceivable that your father is definitely not a good person." ”

Yu Xueying turned around after speaking, but she ignored her with her arms around her chest. Yu Shuang pulled Yu Xueying and said in a low voice: "Ying'er, don't be rude." ”

When the girl heard this, her face turned red and her ears turned red, she stared at Yu Xueying fiercely, her sleeves were raised, and she wanted to have a seizure......

Yu Shuang calmed down, turned to the girl and said, "My sister is young and doesn't know how to be polite, I hope the girl doesn't care." Our brother and sister trekked through mountains and rivers to come to Yulin City to look for Uncle Pan, which was actually entrusted by the elders, and asked the young lady to make it convenient. Thank you very much for it!"

The girl's face flashed with anger, and she was about to speak, when suddenly a middle-aged man's loud voice came from the courtyard: "Xiaohan, what happened?"

The girl looked back at the mansion and responded, "Uncle Fang, there are two strangers here who are clamoring to find my father." ”

The voice in the courtyard sounded again: "It's over, the lord will participate in the 'hero ring' held by the city lord tomorrow, and he has no spare time to take care of these trivial matters." ”

The girl nodded to the courtyard, turned back to Frost and said, "Did you hear me?" I don't have time to quarrel with you, hurry up, or I'll call someone to chase you." With that, she glared at Yu Shuang and strode into the mansion.

Yu Shuang sighed deeply, watching the girl's figure disappear around the corner of the mansion gate, with a look of amazement on her face.

Yu Xueying's mouth flattened, glanced at the place where the woman had disappeared, and said indignantly: "Brother, do you see it? I really don't understand, how can my mother know the people here. ”

Yu Shuang stretched out her hand and patted her sister on the shoulder, and said lightly: "Did you hear it just now, the person inside said that Uncle Pan is going to participate in the 'Hero Ring' tomorrow, why don't we go and see it tomorrow, if Uncle Pan is really like his daughter, he is a fierce and unreasonable person, then we don't look for him." ”

Yu Xueying nodded, looked at Yu Shuang and said, "Brother is right, then where are we going now?"

Yu Shuang raised her eyes and looked at the sky, only to see that the sun had set in the west, and the gate of Pan's Mansion couldn't enter today no matter what, so she had to say: "Let's go find an inn first, and let's talk about it when we see Uncle Pan tomorrow." ”

Yu Xueying nodded in agreement, and the two left the gate of Pan's Mansion in a daze.
