459 Let's make friends
I don't know if it was because of excessive fright.
Someone in the town also visited Wang Mazi, but since the fish-selling guys in the town disappeared one after another, Wang Mazi seemed to be extremely frightened and never went out again.
"Where is Wang Mazi's family living?"
Su Yixian asked.
Maybe this Wang Mazi is the one who knows the current situation in Qingyun Town best. He just doesn’t know how much he knows. He has never seen Senior Brother Qingxuan and the others.
"It's not far from this. If the girl wants to see you, I'll just let Xiao Afu take you there later."
As the chef said that, he brought a half-year-old child from the kitchen. The child looked at Su Yixian timidly, looking very afraid of life.
Seeing the child's thin shoulders, Su Yixian twitched his mouth. Did such a young child come out to work?
The child named Afu looked very sallow, and he looked like he had long-term malnutrition.
The child was less than Su Yixian's shoulders, and he was about ten years old. He was so young that he went out to do odd jobs, and his family conditions should not be good.
Su Yixian felt a little uncomfortable, but there should be many such children. Children from poor families are already very sensible at a young age.
The chef didn't know what he said to Ah Fu, the child looked at Su Yixian with a little hesitation, and then nodded to the chef.
Later, Afu walked up to Su Yixian and said in a not-so-clear voice: "Please come with the girl and the little one."
After saying that, he nodded respectfully at Su Yixian and signaled her to follow him.
When she walked out of the kitchen, Xie Jinan saw that Su Yixian was about to go out, so she hurriedly followed her. On the way, Su Yixian chatted with Xie Jinan for a simple chat, and Xie Jinan insisted on following Su Yixian.
When they first came here, they did not notice anything strange. Only then did the two truly realize that the matter here was inseparable from the floods in Qingyun Town.
However, the specific situation will be known only after seeing this Wang Mazi.
The inn chef was unable to give more clues, so Su Yixian and Xie Jinan could only follow Ah Fu to find Wang Mazi who was said to have escaped from Qingyun Town.
"Afu, why do you say that Wang Mazi escaped? That's not what your chef said to me?"
When Su Yixian saw that little guy looked tenacious and tolerant, she couldn't help but want to tease him.
After hearing Su Yixian questioning him, Afu immediately turned nervous and blushed, "I didn't lie. When the girl saw Wang Mazi, she knew if the little girl said something wrong."
Afu, the child, was a honest man. He thought Su Yixian and the others did not believe him, so after saying this, he quickly stepped forward.
Seeing his nervous appearance, Su Yixian felt a little joked, so she walked up to A Fu and asked aloud, "A Fu, how old are you this year?"
Originally, Su Yixian thought that this child would not look more than ten years old at most because he was not tall.
However, Afu just glanced at her strangely and did not answer her. So Su Yixian had to ask again: "How old are you this year?"
After seeing Su Yixian's seriousness and no intention of ridicule, Ah Fu was slightly stunned and said, "I'm fifteen years old this year."
It's fifteen?
After hearing A Fu's words, Su Yixian was stunned on the spot. Is this A Fu actually fifteen years old?
But he looks less than ten years old?
He is actually fifteen years old?
Su Yixian was very surprised, but after a brief surprise, Su Yixian felt relieved because she noticed Ah Fu's clothes.
Although it looks barely clean, the coarse linen looks very old and you can see layers of patches in some places.
Xie Jinan was also shocked by Afu's age. He looked at himself, then looked at Afu again, and immediately turned a blind eye.
Su Yixian guessed that Xie Jinan must be a little ashamed. After all, how could this rich young man who was not touching the spring water experience this kind of suffering in the world?
After Ah Fu said this, he walked straight ahead. Su Yixian could see that when the child said this, he should have felt extremely inferior in his heart.
After all, for a fifteen-year-old boy, such a body size really makes it a bit difficult for him to speak of.
Su Yixian carefully glanced at the child in front of him. He must have suffered too much when he was a teenager, so his body stagnated so much. As long as he is well conditioned, there are still many opportunities to grow taller.
After all, he is only fifteen years old.
As long as nutrition keeps up, you can grow taller quickly.
"Afu, where is your home?"
Su Yixian asked, wanting to get closer to Afu, she had never suffered such hardship before. When she saw this, she naturally felt compassion.
"The little one has no home."
Afu turned his head to look at Su Yixian. He looked very serious and did not hide at all. It seemed that he had already become accustomed to such things when asked about them.
He was just an orphan picked up by the shopkeeper on the roadside. He had never thought about this issue since he was a child and would not think about it.
"Afu, I'm sorry, I don't know..."
Su Yixian looked at the little stubborn figure a little apologized. If she had known that his childhood was so unfortunate, she would not have asked such a question at all.
However, Su Yixian's guilty apology was something A Fu never expected. He was just an orphan, and no one had ever cared about his feelings, and he had long been accustomed to all this.
But when he saw Su Yixian's sincere apology, he was still deeply touched. After all, this girl and the young master must have an extraordinary identity.
And their seriousness does not discriminate. On the contrary, in their seriousness, Afu saw a kind of respect he had never experienced before, as if in her eyes, they were always equal.
Ah Fu suddenly realized what he was thinking and suddenly became a little panicked. He waved his hand and said, "Miss, you don't need to apologize. You have a small life, so there is no need to apologize at all."
Su Yixian felt even more uncomfortable when she saw Ah Fu say this.
But she didn't know what to do to help the child, so she took out a stack of silver notes and handed it to Afu and said, "Everyone of us is born the same, there is no distinction between high and low, so don't belittle yourself, accept the money and make friends."
Su Yixian said this very sincerely. She was afraid that Afu would not accept it, so she deliberately patted Afu on the shoulder with a very generous attitude, and when the other party did not react, she stuffed the silver note into Afu's hands.
