Chapter 1636 The old man who is not at home
“Let’s stop the game of chess here.”
"Let the frog god teach you next."
Xiao Xiao looked at the monster who had been squatting quietly beside him before, "I will continue with you when I come back."
"咩咩~"
Ningxia nodded.
"Baa baa~ baa baa~ baa baa~"
Mr. Xiao Xiao, please be careful on the road.
"Thank you, I will."
Xiao Xiao smiled.
“Tweet~”
Lord Xiao Xiao!
The clear cry comes from far to near.
Xiao Xiao turned around and saw Li Zheng flying towards him quickly.
And on its paws... it was holding the mobile phone he had placed in the room.
Xiao Xiao's eyebrows arched, and he reached out to take the mobile phone that Lin gave him.
"Thank you, Lin."
"I was just going to get my phone."
Xiao Xiao reached out and gently touched Li's head.
“Tweet~”
Li raised his face, showing great joy and pride.
……
After saying goodbye to the monsters in the yard, Xiao Xiao turned around and closed the door of the yard.
He looked at the address on the paper.
There is indeed some distance.
However, not to mention that the old lady asked him to take a taxi, he originally planned to take a taxi.
If you take a taxi, it will take more than twenty minutes.
Xiao Xiao walked out of the alley and hailed a car.
……
The air conditioner in the car was turned on full blast.
But the smell of gasoline is a bit strong.
When he arrived at his destination, Xiao Xiao couldn't wait to get out of the car.
He rubbed his temples.
I just felt that there was still a bit of a disgusting smell of gasoline left in my nose.
He took a deep breath.
Although the hot air is not that comfortable.
Xiao Xiao missed the white plum blossoms in the yard.
I have become accustomed to the cold fragrance of white plums in the past few days, but when I go outside, I feel a little uncomfortable.
He couldn't help but shake his head and laugh at himself, as expected, "It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality."
……
Xiao Xiao recalled the address on the paper, then took steps forward.
This is an old neighborhood.
Not run-down.
The lush trees have intertwined branches and leaves.
The exterior walls of unit buildings are covered with lush ivy.
There are small yellow-green flowers blooming on it.
Looking around, there is plenty of greenery.
I just feel like the unbearable heat has subsided a bit.
arrive.
Xiao Xiao was not surprised to see the access control system.
Unfortunately, on the way here, he saw that the doors of many unit buildings were stuck with rocks and remained unlocked.
But the door of this unit building is tightly closed.
Xiao Xiao was about to press the doorbell, but found that his luck was indeed good.
He heard footsteps.
Someone came downstairs.
Xiao Xiao took a few steps to the side.
"Click~"
The iron door was opened, and a slightly stooped old lady with gray hair came out.
The old lady walked very slowly, showing a bit of caution.
Holding a bag of stuff in hand.
Xiao Xiao smelled the aroma of food.
Seeing Xiao Xiao outside the door, the old lady was stunned for a moment.
Immediately, the old man showed a kind smile to Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao also smiled at the old man.
He watched the old man's back slowly go away, and then disappeared around a corner.
He released his hand that had been holding the door and walked into the unit building.
“Dong dong~”
Xiao Xiao knocked on the door slightly.
“Dong dong~”
“Dong dong~”
“Dong dong dong~”
Xiao Xiao used more force on his hand.
But there was no sound from the door.
He withdrew his hand.
There was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
My grandma should have told Grandma Zhang the time of her departure.
Logically speaking, Grandma Zhang should be waiting at home for him to bring snacks.
But what happens now?
Did you leave suddenly because of something?
Xiao Xiao took out his mobile phone and pressed the number he saw on the paper before.
"Du~du~du, right?"
Xiao Xiao pressed down the phone. This is trouble.
No one is home.
No one answered the phone again.
While Xiao Xiao was thinking about what to do next, the door of the opposite room opened.
She is a thin old lady.
The young man he saw when he looked up surprised the old man.
"Are you looking for A Ming?"
The old man asked blurtly.
Amin?
Xiao Xiao showed that he was unfamiliar with this name.
"That's the old lady from this family."
The thin old man pointed at the person behind Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao suddenly realized.
He nodded, "Well, I'm looking for Grandma Zhang."
"Well, that's right, A Ming's surname is Zhang"
The thin old man whispered.
Then she looked at Xiao Xiao with some suspicion, "Who are you?"
"What do you want from A Ming?"
"Never seen you before."
"Are you a relative of Amin?"
"No."
Xiao Xiao shook his head, "I came from Xiao's Teahouse."
"Grandma Zhang called and said she wanted to eat snacks from Xiao's Teahouse."
Xiao Xiao lifted the snack box in his hand and said, "I brought it to her."
"Oh."
The thin old man nodded, "Xiao's Teahouse. I seem to have heard A Ming talk about it."
"But I'm just average about tea."
"Then the teahouse doesn't seem to be close to here?"
The thin old man looked at Xiao Xiao questioningly.
Xiao Xiao nodded, "Well, there is some distance."
"Really?"
The thin old man laughed and said, "That's why I have never been to this teahouse once."
“I didn’t expect A Ming to like the snacks in this teahouse so much.”
"Please make this trip."
The skinny old man's face softened a bit.
"Have you knocked on the door?"
the old man asked enthusiastically.
"Knocked."
Xiao Xiao smiled helplessly, "But no one answered the door."
"Grandma Zhang may have gone out."
"Out?"
The old man came over.
“Dong dong dong~”
The old man looks thin, but his hands are strong.
The knocking on the door was much louder than Xiao Xiao's before.
Xiao Xiao was stunned.
Then the smile on his face became more helpless, "Grandma Zhang probably went out for something."
"Did you tell her before you came?"
The thin old man shook his hand.
Her hands hurt a little.
"Yeah."
Xiao Xiao nodded, "Grandma Zhang should know that I'm coming over at this time."
"Then why did she get out?"
The thin old man was puzzled, "She is not someone who would do such a thing."
"Maybe something happened suddenly."
Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "It's okay, grandma, thank you."
"You go do your thing."
"I'm waiting here."
"Hey~"
The thin old man suddenly thought of something and his eyes lit up, "Did you call her?"
"Hit."
Xiao Xiao was defeated under the old man's expectant eyes.
"But no one picked up."
"Huh?"
The thin old man looked disappointed, "What is this guy doing? He doesn't even have a mobile phone."
"No one can find it-"
The thin old man's voice paused, and then the volume increased a little, "I know where she went!"
"I should have thought of it earlier."
The old man muttered.
Soon, she looked at Xiao Xiao, "I know where she went."
"Follow me."
"Thank you."
Xiao Xiao did not refuse.
This undoubtedly saved him a lot of time, and the thin old man seemed very excited about guiding him.
Then he shouldn't dampen the old man's enthusiasm.
