Chapter 1548 Looking for someone
"Yes."

"Isn't it Xiao Hua's kid?"

"I remember he was wearing this outfit today."

……

The old people were talking about it.

The old lady returned the phone to Xiao Xiao, "Young man, what do you want to do with that child?"

"You don't know that kid, do you?"

Otherwise, he wouldn't come looking for someone with a photo.

However, the old lady couldn't understand what could happen if two young people were looking for a child?

"He got into trouble?"

A look of realization appeared on the old lady's face.

This conjecture is not difficult to come to.

Someone has come to my door, what else could it be except causing trouble?
"No wonder I saw that kid running back in a hurry earlier."

The other old man also showed a look of realization on his face, "I called him, but he didn't answer me."

"What trouble did that kid get into?"

An old man asked.

……

"no."

Xiao Xiao shook his head, "He accidentally bumped into my friend before."

"My friend later discovered that something was missing."

"I wonder if that will happen to him."

"It's just a possibility."

Xiao Xiao explained, "That thing is very important to my friend, so I spent so much effort to find this little boy."

"I just wanted to ask him."

"It would be best if he has the stuff."

"If not, it also eliminates a possibility."

……

"oh oh."

"That's right."

The old people nodded one after another, "That's good."

"Although the child is a little withdrawn, he is not a bad child."

"He wouldn't take anything from someone on purpose."

The old lady who was initially questioned by Xiao Xiao took off her glasses and her eyes narrowed slightly.

"Ah."

Xiao Xiao nodded, "We are just taking precautions."

"Old man, where is this child's home?"

Meng Jixi saw the opportunity to interrupt, "Is it here?"

"Here, that's the family."

Before the old lady could answer, another old man stretched out his pipe and pointed in a direction.

"Xiao Hua lives there with his grandparents."

"His grandfather has a bad temper, but his grandmother has a good temper."

"Where are his parents?"

Meng Jixi asked subconsciously.

"His father is dead."

The old people were talking a lot. It was rare for young people to come over here, and they asked about what they knew. The old people were eager to talk. "I got a serious illness and spent almost all the money in the family."

"But the person was not saved in the end."

"His mother said he was going out to work."

"There was some news coming back in the first two years."

"There was no news after that."

"I don't know if something happened or..."

"I definitely don't want to come back."

"The mother of the child is still so young."

"Look at the Tong family, two old people and one child, it's a bottomless pit."

"The Tong family's situation is too much of a burden for a young girl."

"Alas, it's just a pity for Xiao Hua. Just when he could remember a little, his father left, and then his mother also left and never came back."

"No wonder the child has a gloomy temperament."

……

After thanking the enthusiastic old people, Xiao Xiao and Meng Jixi walked towards the Tong family.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Meng Jixi went forward and knocked on the door.

The elderly people not far away were watching their actions, unable to hide their curiosity.

……

No sound came from the door.

But according to the elders, the Tong family is all at home today.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Meng Jixi increased the strength in his hands. He was not in a hurry, and just kept tapping at a steady speed.

Five minutes later, "Who is it?"

The old man's questioning voice came from inside the door.

Meng Jixi didn't say anything.

A few seconds later, "Crunch~"

The door was opened, and an old lady poked her head out. Seeing two strange young people standing in front of the door, she couldn't help but look puzzled, "Who are you?"

"Hello, grandma."

Xiao Xiao smiled.

Meng Jixi stepped back.

Let's leave the matter of dealing with the elderly to Master Xiao.

He just needs to wait to be "caught".

"Let's look for Tong Hua."

This was also the name of the little boy that the old man had just told them.

Tong Hua, fairy tale.

As can be seen from the name, the child’s parents are looking forward to this child with love.

It’s just that things in this world are so unpredictable, which makes people sigh.

"Xiao Hua?"

The old lady was stunned.

It was the first time someone came to the house to look for the child.

Not the child's friend or classmate, but -
There was a certain scrutiny in the old lady's eyes.

Two young men who clearly looked like they wouldn't have any connection with children.

"who are you?"

"What do you want from Xiao Hua?"

Just as Xiao Xiao was about to answer, a powerful voice came from inside the room, "Old lady, who is it?"

Then there was a sound of footsteps, and an old man with gray hair, ruddy complexion and strong body walked out.

"Old man."

The old lady turned and called out.

"They are two young men."

"He said he was here to look for Xiao Hua."

"Looking for Xiao Hua?"

Like the old lady before him, the old man was also stunned.

He looked at Xiao Xiao and Meng Jixi with a tense expression. After discovering that both of them looked well-educated, the old man breathed a sigh of relief.

He almost thought that the little bastard had gotten into some trouble outside and was picked on by the bad guys.

I felt much relieved, but my doubts were not alleviated at all.

What do two young people like these want from that kid?

The old man asked in a deep voice.

The question about the export was exactly the same as the one the old lady asked before.

"who are you?"

"What do you want from Xiao Hua?"

"Old man, can we go inside and talk?"

Xiao Xiao suggested.

He could feel the gazes of the elderly people nearby.

"come in."

The old lady opened the door a little further.

The old man couldn't help but glare at the old lady slightly.

This old woman didn't even know who the other party was, and she just let him in? !
The old lady had her own reasons, "It's so ugly to block the door."

"It's just a waste of time for people to watch the fun."

"Besides, I do have some vision."

"These two kids are not bad people."

The old man curled his lips.

How can it be so easy to distinguish between good people and bad people?
However, he actually felt that these two children were not bad people.

Therefore, although he showed some disapproval on his face, he did not make any move to stop her. Instead, he slightly turned his body to the side, as a sign of his approval of the old lady's behavior.

"Thank you."

Xiao Xiao walked into the yard.

Meng Jixi turned around and closed the door behind him, blocking out any prying eyes from outside.

"Young man, can you tell me what you want from Xiao Hua now?"

The old lady was not vague and asked directly.

Xiao Xiao repeated what he had told the enthusiastic old man before.

Meng Jixi's expression remained unchanged, but he was feeling emotional in his heart. It was a good thing that Master Xiao came up with such an excuse.

Was it something you made up on the spot? Or did you think of it on the way here?

Maybe you had already thought about it on the way here?

Otherwise, how could one speak so fluently and without any stumbling?
