Chapter 209 Little Mute

The reason why Shen Siyuan encountered a little trouble was that he was being held by the legs by a little kid who looked like Doudou and would not let go.

She seemed not to understand what Shen Siyuan said. She just tilted her head and smiled at him foolishly.

The course of this incident was somewhat strange.

The place where Shen Siyuan made an appointment with Zhong Xiaonan to meet was a cafe on the seaside, across a road from a beach.

The weather is very good today, so there is a group of children playing on the beach. The children are of different ages, and it looks like a teacher leading students, or like an offline activity.

Then he was targeted by a baby.

Judging from his appearance, he should be about the same age as Doudou, and equally chubby, but a little dirty, with chapped little face, like a wild child.

She was wearing a round-neck ruffled, small floral bubble short-sleeved shirt that had turned a little pale from being washed, and the collar was covered in saliva stains, making it look a little dirty.

He was wearing a pair of black cropped trousers. There was originally a circle of lace around the trouser legs, but because he had worn them for too long, the edges had frayed and not much was left.

It seemed that the little girl's family conditions were not very good, and what made Shen Siyuan feel strange was that there were no adults around.

There were a few old people and young girls, but they looked more like nannies or kindergarten teachers, taking care of these children.

Normally, for such young children, parents would usually follow them even if the school organizes activities.

There are also some older kids here, obviously they are all elementary school or junior high school students.

They also helped to look after the children, but even so, there were too many little kids running around on the beach, making it difficult to keep an eye on them for a while.

The little baby that Shen Siyuan mentioned was the more obedient one among them. She sat on the beach, looking at Shen Siyuan from afar across the road, grinning the whole time, looking like a little Maitreya Buddha, her saliva dripping onto her collar without her realizing it.

Her smile was very contagious, with the corners of her mouth raised and her eyebrows curved, as if the whole world was cheering with her.

When Shen Siyuan and Zhong Xiaonan were talking, she stared at them...

When Shen Siyuan picked up the coffee, she was still staring at him...

……

She was like a little frog, squatting there, looking at Shen Siyuan across the street.

Not to mention that Shen Siyuan, who had a keen sense of perception, had already noticed it, even Zhong Xiaonan had noticed it.

"Do you know her?" Zhong Xiaonan asked curiously.

Shen Siyuan shook his head. How could he possibly know such a little kid?

"do not know."

Shen Siyuan stood up and walked across the street.

So after chatting with Zhong Xiaonan, Shen Siyuan walked over with some curiosity.

Seeing Shen Siyuan coming, the "little frog" immediately stood up, opened his arms, stumbled towards Shen Siyuan, and then hugged Shen Siyuan's legs.

The dirty little face rubbed against his trouser legs.

He kept making silly laughing sounds like “ha…ha…”

Seeing this, Zhong Xiaonan, who followed over, said with amusement: "Mr. Shen, you are really popular with children."

"Is that so?" Shen Siyuan was also confused.

It seems to make some sense, both Doudou and Duoduo seem to be closer to him.

So he lowered his head and asked the little guy who was hugging his thigh and sitting on his shoe: "What's your name? How old are you this year?"

The little baby didn't answer either, but just looked up at him, still smiling foolishly with curved eyebrows, and making sounds like ha~ha~ from his mouth.

Zhong Xiaonan on the side frowned slightly, seeming to notice something was wrong.

"She won't..."

Shen Siyuan knew what she wanted to say. He glanced at her, bent down and wanted to pick her up, but the little thing grabbed his trouser leg and refused to let go.

Shen Siyuan didn't dare to use too much force for fear of hurting her.

"Me~me~" When the little guy saw Shen Siyuan approaching, another sound immediately came out of his little mouth.

"You can't speak?"

Normally, a child of this age should be able to speak.

For example, Doudou speaks like pouring beans, clear and fast.

This little baby could only utter a few simple syllables, and it was obvious that there was something wrong with him.

"Little dumb~Little dumb~"

At this time, a little boy about thirteen or fourteen years old ran over to the beach, shouting.

But the little baby who was holding Shen Siyuan's thigh did not react at all. He still grinned, squinted his eyes, and smiled foolishly at Shen Siyuan.

Looking at her smile, Shen Siyuan seemed to be infected and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose.

She bent her knees and lifted her feet up, and the baby rose up with her feet. She was not afraid, and her two short legs swung back and forth, as if she was using his legs as a seesaw.

At this moment, the little boy ran over, hugged the baby from behind, and pulled her off Shen Siyuan's legs.

"Uncle, I'm sorry, Xiao Ya... Tang Tang made your clothes dirty."

The little boy saw the obvious stain on Shen Siyuan's trouser leg, so he apologized a little uncomfortably.

The little baby was still grinning and smiling foolishly, looking at Shen Siyuan and then at the little brother beside him.

"It's okay. Is her name Tang Tang?" Shen Siyuan asked curiously.

The little boy nodded and said, "Yes, it was Grandma Zhang who gave her this name. She said her smile was as sweet as candy, but Tang Tang can't speak."

"Can't speak? Can't hear?"

Shen Siyuan remembered that when the little boy called Tang Tang just now, she seemed to have no reaction at all.

Generally, mute people are born deaf, and because they cannot hear any sounds, they cannot learn to speak.

Sure enough, the little boy nodded and said, "Tang Tang can't speak either, but she is very well behaved."

After saying that, he looked down at the little baby who was still laughing foolishly, and scratched his head in confusion: "I don't know what happened today. She never runs around normally..."

"Are you in school, or..." Shen Siyuan looked at the group of children on the beach and asked curiously.

At this time, a middle-aged aunt seemed to have noticed something was happening here and was walking towards this side.

"We are the children of Grandma Zhang from Sun Village," said the little boy.

"Sun Village?" Shen Siyuan was a little confused. What place was this?

"Grandma Zhang adopted us. Today is Saturday. Grandma Zhang said we can't stay at home all the time, so she asked other grandmas and aunts to take us out to play..."

Shen Siyuan understood vaguely after hearing this. It should be a private institution similar to an orphanage.

At this time, the middle-aged aunt in simple clothes came over.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

When she understood what had happened, she quickly apologized to Shen Siyuan and seemed very polite.

Shen Siyuan also learned from her that the so-called Sun Village was actually a small farmyard. Grandma Zhang's real name was Zhang Xiufang. Zhang Xiufang was a retired teacher. At the beginning, she just wanted to provide a home for the underage children of prisoners and children from extremely poor families, so that they could have food, drink and education.

Let these children not harm society and be able to support themselves in the future.

Later, gradually, we also accepted some children from welfare homes.

For example, Tang Tang was deaf and dumb and needed someone to take care of her. Grandma Zhang felt sorry for her and took her home.

Shen Siyuan looked down at Tang Tang.

Tang Tang was also looking up at him. Her eyes were extremely beautiful and as clear as the starry sky, which made Shen Siyuan lose his mind for a moment.
