Chapter 1746 The reason for tripping?

Especially since this kid seems so sure?
but……

Mother Xiao frowned slightly.

The kitchen is some distance away from the lobby.

Although there was some noise just now, it was not loud enough for people in the kitchen to hear it clearly.

……

Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "I heard some commotion in the teahouse."

Xiao's Teahouse is an ancient-style teahouse.

Pay attention to the quiet and peaceful atmosphere.

Since most of the tea drinkers here are regular customers, they will consciously lower their voices when talking or playing chess without being reminded, and will not make too much noise.

New customers are influenced by the atmosphere of the teahouse and the old customers, and will also be careful not to speak too loudly.

So once there is a noise, it must be because something has happened.

……

"You have a really good ear."

Mother Xiao sighed.

"Did something really happen?"

Father Xiao stopped what he was doing and looked at Mother Xiao, "What happened?"

Grandpa Xiao also looked at Mother Xiao.

"It's not a big deal."

Mother Xiao smiled and waved her hand.

"It was just an accident."

"A guest just fell down."

"Did a guest fall down?"

Father Xiao was a little surprised. After all, he had rarely encountered customers falling down in teahouses. "Is he okay?"

"It's nothing serious."

Mother Xiao shook her head slightly.

I felt somewhat relieved.

"Someone grabbed me."

"Strictly speaking, it fell halfway."

"oh oh."

Grandpa Xiao nodded, "It's good that he's okay."

Then he thought of something and frowned, "Is it an old guy?"

If so
That might cause some trouble.

An old man has old arms and legs, and a fall is not something he can take lightly like a young man.

What if the old guy gets hurt because of this fall?

……

"Yes, I am quite old."

Mother Xiao shook her head slightly, "But it's not very big either."

"Probably in his early fifties."

"I came here with Elder Gu."

"I came with that old guy."

Grandpa Xiao suddenly realized.

Mr. Gu is a frequent visitor to Xiao’s Teahouse.

He smiles all day long, like Maitreya Buddha.

Popularity is very good.

Occasionally, I would bring some new friends to Xiao’s Teahouse to have tea.

It actually helped Xiao's Teahouse develop a few regular customers.

For this reason, Gu Lao even joked that they had to pay him for "pimping".

"What? You don't believe what mom said?"

Seeing Xiao Xiao looked thoughtful, Xiao's mother smiled and said.

"No."

Xiao Xiao shook his head, "It's just that if no one is fine, the previous commotion seems to have lasted a little longer."

It vaguely sounded like there was some kind of dispute?
Mother Xiao's pupils dilated for a moment.

"What kind of hearing is this?"

Xiao's mother sighed and laughed, and then she had some guesses.

"Have you been to the lobby just now?"

"Or did you pass by the lobby door and hear the noise coming from inside?"

"No."

Xiao Xiao shook his head.

"I heard it here."

"Xiaoxiao has been helping us here just now."

Grandpa Xiao testified for Xiao Xiao, "He didn't leave."

"Is that so?"

Mother Xiao murmured softly.

Then she laughed and praised her son, "Xiaoxiao has really good hearing."

"All right."

"Let's not get off topic."

Mother Xiao pulled back her increasingly scattered thoughts and said, "I still have to go back to the front to greet the guests."

She tilted her head slightly and recounted the incident that had happened in the teahouse.

"Squeak~"

The sound of the chair legs rubbing against the ground instantly drowned out the slow sound of the ancient music.

All the guests in the teahouse were startled.

They all patted their chests and looked in the direction of the sound. An old man knelt on one knee on the ground.

Lean forward.

One of his hands grasped the back of the chair.

The chair was tilted.

That's why the rather "awakening" sound just now was made.

The old man's other arm was grabbed by a kind-hearted person.

This prevents the elderly from falling seriously.

The old man took a deep breath.

With the help of Mr. Gu and Xiao's mother who came rushing over after hearing the noise, he stood up with a trembling body.

"Thank you."

He thanked the old man who caught him in time.

Otherwise, he would probably fall badly.

It’s a bit scary just thinking about it.

he-
"I'm fine, why did you fall?"

Mr. Gu asked his good friend.

After looking my friend up and down carefully, I found that it was just as he said, there was nothing serious.

Mr. Gu also asked his own doubts.

"I-"

The friend was about to shake his head when suddenly an idea flashed in his mind and he remembered!
"Something tripped me!"

My friend's voice was a little too loud without me noticing.

But my friend didn't realize this.

He was excited about what he had just discovered.

"I just tripped!"

He looked down at his feet.

Then, his expression froze.

Nothing at all.

"how could be?"

The friend murmured quietly.

“I really tripped over something just now.”

"Could it be that your left foot tripped over your right foot?"

Mr. Gu proposed a possibility.

He also looked down at the ground for a long time, but didn't find anything that could trip his friend.

My friend couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Am I that stupid?"

"If I really tripped over my left foot, would I not know it?"

"So how do you feel about the thing that tripped you up?"

Mr. Gu felt that what his friend said was true.

You really tripped over yourself, how could you not know that?

".No."

My friend looked confused and said, "It was just a moment, how could I notice so much?"

Gu Lao shook his head, "There's nothing we can do about it."

"You don't even know what tripped you up, and no one knows."

"You're fine anyway-"

"correct!"

The friend looked expectantly at the kind-hearted person who had grabbed him at the critical moment.

"Did you see it?"

"Did I trip over something?"

This is a very handsome old man.

Buzz cut.

Very tall.

The waist is straight.

It's not the strict temperament of a soldier.

Instead, it is more inclined to a free and wild temperament.

But it is equally tough.

There was no cloudiness in the eyes of the old man with a crew cut that is seen in most old people.

Instead, he is as clear-headed as a young man.

"No."

The sound is as crisp and clear as its appearance.

"There's none?"

Although the answer was not too unexpected, my friend was still a little disappointed.

Gu Lao curled his lips, "You only talked about a moment."

"It's good enough that they can hold you back."

"You still expect others to see everything about your fall clearly?"

"Then you wouldn't have half-fallen like you did just now."

"Instead, he was stopped at the very beginning."

My friend opened his mouth, somewhat speechless.

He admitted that what Mr. Gu said made sense.

"All right."

Gu Lao patted his friend's shoulder and said, "Isn't it just that you almost fell?"

"You still have to find out the reason for the fall?"
