"The baby is not crying."

The child retorted urgently, with a hint of embarrassment blush on his face.

"Yeah, are you still shy?"

The old lady joked about her grandson, and her expression was quite novel.

"This kid is not very shy."

She explained to Xiao Xiao.

"grandmother!"

The child shouted unhappily.

"Okay, grandma won't say it."

The old lady blinked at Xiao Xiao.

The smile in Xiao Xiao's eyes became a little deeper.

...

"Big brother, thank you."

Seeing that grandma really stopped talking, the child pursed his lips and smiled shyly at Xiao Xiao.

"You're welcome."

Xiao Xiao squatted down, his eyebrows and eyes softened, "Be careful next time."

"Um."

The child nodded obediently, "I will be very careful in the future."

The old lady reached out and patted the child's head gently, "The baby must do what he said."

"Uh-huh."

The child nodded like a chicken pecking at the rice.

The old lady hurriedly pressed the child's head and said helplessly: "Okay, why are you ordering so many times?"

"Wait carefully and you'll feel dizzy."

"hey-hey."

The child subconsciously covered his head and smiled a little silly.

The old lady shook her head in a funny way.

...

"You guys are together?"

The old lady glanced at the girl who was quite quiet and elegant standing aside.

"Um."

Xiao Xiao nodded, "Let's find someone."

"I said, you don't look like you live here."

The old lady smiled and said, "Then you guys go quickly."

"Don't waste your time."

Xiao Xiao shook his head, "No."

"And, the person we are looking for is not at home."

"Aren't you here?"

The old lady asked with concern, "Who are you looking for?"

Then he seemed to realize his rudeness. The old man smiled embarrassedly, "Look at me, have you asked too many questions?"

"No."

Xiao Xiao's mouth raised slightly, "Let's look for Hua Ziyun."

"Do you know him?"

"Hua Ziyun?"

The old man murmured, "Ah Yun?"

"That child from the Hua family?"

The old man's words made Yu Yanyan's eyes lit up, and the curve of Xiao Xiao's mouth rose a little more.

"If there is only one family here named Hua, then it should be him."

The surname Hua is not a common surname.

At least it was the first time that Xiao Xiao had encountered this surname when he grew up so old.

...

"Yes, it's him."

The old lady nodded affirmatively, "Because I always call him Ah Yun."

"At first I heard the full name, I really didn't react at once."

"Oh, no wonder."

The old man's sudden look made Xiao Xiao and Yu Yanyan a little strange.

The two of them did not hide their confusion either.

The old man smiled, "Did you just rang the doorbell and no one answered the door, and you thought there was no one at home?"

Xiao Xiao nodded.

Yu Yanyan was silent.

They hadn't had time to ring the doorbell just now.

Because she was in a state of tangle, she was unable to make a decision for a while.

...

"Actually, there are people in their family."

The old man didn't know what he thought of, and his expression was a little difficult to tell, but then he sighed, "A Yun's child seems to have suffered a serious illness."

"His mother didn't go to work, and she has been taking care of him at home."

"His father also spends a lot more time at home."

"But, strangely -"

The old man paused for a moment, and a confused look on his face, "Their family refused anyone's visit."

"I was also a neighbor for many years."

"I also watched Ah Yun grow up."

"He's sick, and I have some other neighbors who want to see him."

"But the Hua family blocked us all at the door."

"Not only that, Ayun's friends come to see him, but also from this community. They have been playing with Ayun since childhood and have been blocked from outside the door."

"The young man is unwilling to give up and has been here many times."

"Later, the Hua family didn't even open the door for them."

"It's not just A Yun's friend, but the others are not open too much."

“So a lot of people always think they are not at home.”

"Because my family lives downstairs, I know that there are actually people in their family."

"Just pretending to be out of home."

"I don't know what's going on... The Hua family seems to be isolated from the world, trying their best to avoid more contact with the outside world."

The old man shook his head and lowered his voice a little, "It's not that we want to think about bad situations."

"But the Hua family's behavior is too strange."

"The Hua family was not so inhumane before."

"We also care about Ah Yun out of kindness and want to see how the child is doing."

"Even if the doctor says he wants to rest, there is no reason why he can't even look at him, right?"

"After Ah Yun got sick, people around us never saw anyone else."

"That kid is like-"

The old man's voice became lower and lower, "It was like being locked up by his parents."
