Chapter 3830 Downstairs
The old lady opened her mouth wide.

Apparently, the old lady needed some time to digest this fact.

……

"...Anyway..."

The old man pursed his lips and said, "Practicing musical instruments in the middle of the night is really disturbing."

He gave a reasonable reason that he had thought of long ago.

……

"indeed."

The old lady nodded.

Who is late at night?
No.

Are you still practicing your musical instrument in the early morning?
Too……

If I tell this to others, I’m afraid I’ll probably get a comment like “You’re sick!”

……

"So I just went to find out who was practicing the pipa last night..."

As soon as the old man said this, a look of realization suddenly appeared on the old lady's face.

"Oh~"

"Did you find it?"

The old lady asked casually.

……

"No."

The old man shook his head.

A look of disappointment appeared on his face.

"Neither of them."

……

"Hey?"

The old lady was a little surprised.

"neither?"

"That……"

"Is it downstairs?"

……

"Maybe……"

The old man wasn't sure either.

"I'll go downstairs and ask later."

He did not tell the old woman that the sound he heard was like it was being played right next to him.

Maybe he heard it wrong.

After all, he was too sensitive to the sound of the pipa...

……

"you……"

The old woman seemed to be hesitant to speak.

After the old man looked over, she smiled and said, "Okay."

"Let's go after breakfast."

She originally wanted to ask why spend so much energy on such a small matter?

But she found that the old man unexpectedly cared about this matter?

She didn’t quite understand…

But it doesn’t matter.

Since it's just a small matter...

that……

She didn't stop the old man.

Just go downstairs and ask, it’s not a big deal.

Just let the old man do what he likes.

……

Because he was worried about something, the old man ate breakfast absent-mindedly.

He responded to the old woman's words in a disjointed manner.

……

Looking at the old man's back, who finished his breakfast faster than usual and left in a hurry, the old woman shook her head slightly.

How old are you?
Still as irritable as a young man.

……

The old man came downstairs.

Without hesitation, he knocked on the door.

The reason why he was so anxious was that he really cared about this matter.

On the other hand, he was also worried that if he arrived late, others would have gone out to work.

……

The old man knocked on the door again and again.

My heart was slightly lifted.

At the same time, I kept repeating in my heart: Come open the door, come open the door, come open the door...

……

As time passed, the old man became more and more nervous.

Have you really gone out?
Just as he paused slightly in his knocking gesture because of this conjecture-
The door opened.

……

The old man smiled subconsciously.

The next second, he was slightly stunned.

Hey?
人-
"Mother."

A clear child's voice came from below.

"It was an old man knocking on the door."

……

The old man bowed his head.

He saw a small child that was only up to his knees.

……

The old man was about to smile at the child-
"mom!"

The child turned around and ran into the house, shouting loudly.

"The person knocking on the door is an old man I don't know!"

……

The old man paused with his lips curved up.

Then he gave a wry smile.

……

"An old man you don't know?"

The child's mother popped her head out of the kitchen.

I saw an old man standing at the door.

I found out that what the child said was both right and wrong.

The child may not know this old man.

But she knew him.

Well……

It is not accurate to say that I know it.

She had only seen the old man a few times in the neighborhood.

But I never had any contact with this old man.

and so……

Why did this old man suddenly come to my house?
……

The child's mother wiped her hands and walked out of the kitchen. She walked to the entrance.

The child who ran away followed his mother closely like a little tail.

After his mother stopped, he reached out and grabbed her clothes.

He poked his head out from behind his mother with a curious look on his face.

I looked up at the strange old man in front of me.

……

"Hello."

The child's mother gave the old man a polite smile.

"What can I do for you?"

……

"Hello."

The old man doesn't waste any more of other people's time.

Just get straight to the point.

"Have you heard the sound of the pipa at home these days?"

……

"The sound of the pipa?"

The child's mother was stunned.

What kind of weird question is this?

She tilted her head slightly.

Although she found it strange, she still thought about it carefully.

Then she shook her head apologetically.

"No."

"I don't hear the sound of the lute."

……

No……

The old man's expression dimmed a little.

……

The child's mother felt a little sorry when she saw this.

"Maybe it's because my child is practicing the piano..."

The child’s mother explained.

“So I can’t hear much other sound.”

……

what……

The old man couldn't help but look down at the little guy who had been looking up at him.

"He's practicing the piano..."

……

"Ah."

When talking about her child, a genuine smile immediately appeared on the mother's face.

"Maybe it's because I listened to a lot of piano music when I was pregnant..."

"This child has been sensitive to piano music since birth."

"When he's older we'll send him to learn piano."

“…He likes it too.”

"The teacher also said that this child is quite talented in piano..."

The child's mother tried her best to speak calmly, but her words were full of pride for her child.

……

The old man smiled.

"awesome."

He smiled at the child.

"Come on, little pianist."

……

"Ok!"

The child responded loudly without being afraid of strangers.

He also made bold statements.

“I’m going to be a great pianist!”

……

"This child..."

The child's mother gently poked the child's forehead with her finger.

There was smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

"it is good."

"That's what you said yourself."

"Mom is waiting for that day."

……

The old man suddenly looked away.

Memories of the past are stirring.

His emotions couldn't help but become complicated.

……

The child’s mother rubbed the child’s head and looked up at the old man in front of her.

"Excuse me."

"It didn't help you."

"You can ask other people."

……

"Ok."

The old man smiled and nodded.

"I am sorry to bother you."

"Thank you."

"Goodbye."

……

"Goodbye."

The mother of the child smiles.

"Goodbye, grandpa~"

The child screamed.

……

The old man couldn't help but laugh.

"Goodbye."

he said again.

……

After the door in front of him closed, he went to the house next door.

He raised his hand.

"Dongdong~Dongdong~Dongdong..."

……

very lucky.

The other two households on this floor opened their doors after he knocked persistently.

Regrettably……

Still no one heard the sound of the pipa.
