Chapter 354: Charity
“...... Hey, I'm Chang Hong, I have a child under the age of age here, I suspect ...... Congenital heart disease, already in shock. About eight minutes to the hospital ......"
The man was on the phone, walking towards the outside of the restaurant, holding the child's mother running beside him, the child's father was dripping with sweat on his forehead, protecting him.
Out of the restaurant, several people quickly got into a car at the door of the restaurant,
The car sped away, and the words went away.
......
“...... Hey, what an old child, why is he sick, and the blue face is scary, and he is evil. ”
"I don't know what's wrong, I look like I'm fainting. ”
In the restaurant, watching the couple and the man drive away, a group of anxious customers talked to each other, dispersed one after another, and resumed eating.
The words were mixed, but they lost their previous excitement.
“...... Do you want to drink some?"
"I don't drink it, I don't drink it, I have to go to the hospital to pick up the car later. ”
The middle-aged men who were fighting for wine did not continue to drink, put the beer bottles aside, and ate their meals.
The waiter on the side paused, turned around, and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks on the table.
......
Seeing that the car was carrying the man and the couple, and the child was far away, Lian Ge retracted his gaze and looked at the old monk,
"Amitabha Buddha ......"
The old monk looked outside the restaurant, folded his hands, and chanted.
Turning his gaze, Lian Ge moved his steps and walked towards the table before.
On his side, the old monk paused, then followed closely and followed.
......
“...... You say that this child is like this, how anxious it is to be a parent. In those years, when our son was young, he had a high fever at night, and you didn't wear any shoes, so you ran outside with him in your arms......"
"And said that I, at that time, you were so anxious that tears were about to fall. ”
“...... Hey, such a young child, how much he suffers, you say. ”
Lian Ge and the old monk sat down at the table again, and the words of the old couple behind them sounded in the ears of Lian Ge and the old monk with the breeze blowing in from the door of the restaurant.
Lian Ge took the chopsticks, held the dishes, ate, listened, the old monk took the bowl of porridge, turned his head, looked at the table of diners in the restaurant, paused with a somewhat cloudy gaze, turned his head again, looked at the porridge in the bowl, used the chopsticks to remove the rice oil, and continued to eat.
......
“...... It's a total of 58 dollars...... Here, make your change, and you're welcome to come back next time. ”
After settling the bill, Lian Ge and the old monk stepped out of the restaurant, and the noisy words went far behind them, replaced by the sound of vehicles passing by.
......
Along the shade of the trees beside the street, Lian Ge moved forward, and the old monk held on to the branch, following closely by his side.
Shops, pedestrians passing by,
Lian Ge looked at the city and the people in the city, walking, and didn't say much.
The old monk didn't say anything, just looked at the pedestrians near and far away.
......
Walking through another street, and at the end of the street, Lian Ge paused,
"Zen Master Jikong, do you know where to go now?"
Looking into the distance, Lian Ge asked in a calm tone,
“...... The poor monk seems to know something. But let the Benefactor decide. ”
The old monk stopped, looked at the street, a car passing by, a person, after a silence, shook his head again.
When Lian Ge heard this, he glanced at the old monk, didn't say anything more, turned around, chose a random direction, skimmed another street, and walked forward.
......
“...... How many days will you be back this time?"
"Three days...... Nacheng, when I get home in a while, Dad will personally cook lychee meat for you...... Hey, I've bought all the meat and stuff. ”
“...... How is your mother's craftsmanship, and I make it delicious with your father? Isn't that right...... By the way, when it's time for you to leave, I'll take you to the station. ”
A middle-aged man in his forties and fifties was carrying a suitcase, with a smile on his face, talking to a young man with a backpack on his side, and walked past Lian Ge and the old monk.
The middle-aged man's body was a little rickety, but the young man's back was straight.
......
“...... Mom, I got the first place in the exam. ”
"My daughter is amazing, awesome!"
"Then I'm going to eat chicken thighs, roasted chicken thighs......"
"Okay, okay, mom will make you ......"
A little girl took her mother by the hand, bouncing and running, running past Lian Ge and the old monk,
The little girl smiled, and her mother smiled.
......
"Sell vegetables, fresh vegetables, vegetables picked from the field at noon......"
"Sell vegetables, sell ......"
Behind a vegetable stall on the side of the street, there was a basket on his back, and an old farmer sat on his back, the old farmer wore a straw hat, soaked in sweat, shouting, passing by Lian Ge and the old monk, and then going away behind him.
The old farmer's voice was hoarse, and sweat dripped down his chin from time to time.
......
The streets of the city swept past Lian Ge and the old monk one by one, and the people in the city also walked away one by one behind them.
The midday sun overhead gradually slanted towards the west, obscured by the towering buildings of the city.
......
“...... Mr. Chang, you're here. ”
Passing another street, with the breeze blowing through the street, the words sounded in Lian Ge's ears,
Lian Ge paused, turned his gaze and looked,
The old monk also stopped and followed Lian Ge's line of sight,
It was an old building, with glass doors open to the street.
On the metal plaque hanging by the door, the name of this place is written,
is the charity of the city.
Through the glass door, is the lobby reception of this charity.
At this moment, in the hall, the reception staff is smiling and greeting another person in the hall.
And the other person is the man in the restaurant before,
“...... It's the benefactor. ”
The old monk noticed the man and said,
Lian Ge turned his gaze, glanced at the old monk, drove his mana, waved his hand at him, and then looked at the charity again,
"Lord Lian, this ...... The poor monk seems to be much deafer. ”
The old monk felt the change and couldn't help but say,
When Lian Ge heard this, he didn't say anything, and when the old monk saw this, he didn't ask again, but just turned his head and looked at the hall of the charity.
......
“...... Mr. Chang, you came here this time, or ......"
The staff was talking to the man,
"Yes. Donate some more money. ”
The man nodded in response.
"Why is it in the middle of the month this time, usually, Mr. Chang comes at the beginning of the month. ”
The staff smiled and said, and did not continue to ask,
"Then Mr. Chang, shall we go to the reception room next to it?"
"No, it's in the hall. ”
“...... Also become. The staff nodded, "Then you sit down and rest for a while, I'll go get the papers, you wait." ”
As he spoke, the staff walked briskly towards the side reception room, while the man fell silent, standing still and not finding a place to sit down.
......
“...... Mr. Chang, sit down. ”
The staff took a cup of tea and walked out with a pile of documents.
The man nodded silently, and sat down on the couch next to the hall with the staff.
"Mr. Chang, what you donated this time is still the same as before, is it cash?"
The staff put the tea in front of the man, sorted out the documents in his hand, and asked,
When the man heard this, he first shook his head, then groped and took out a bank card from his trouser pocket.
"Donate all the money in this card. As he spoke, the man directly handed over the bank card,
Hearing this, the staff couldn't help but raise their heads and look at the man,
looked at the bank card, then at the man with a calm face, hesitated, hesitated,
didn't directly reach out and take it, but asked out loud,
"Then, Mr. Chang, is the project you want to donate the same as before?"
