Chapter 194: Hope Kindergarten
It's the weekend again, the weather is getting colder, although Xiangcheng is a marine climate, but it will be cold for two months every year, when it is cold, due to the humidity of Xiangcheng, it is easy to snow in winter.
It has been falling for two days in a row, the snow has not stopped, the snowflakes are drawing a graceful arc in the air, like a piece of white jade-like butterflies, gently floating or flying vertically, or spiraling down, floating down from the sky, falling on the branches, falling on people's faces, the whole earth is snow-white, many students out of the dormitory, enjoy the most conspicuous snow playground, garden strolling, frolicking, cheering for the beautiful snow scene of nature in this world.
All the preliminary work of Yunxiang's night tavern music restaurant has been completed, decoration, equipment replacement, kitchenware replacement, and waiter recruitment have also been completed, all of them are college students, all recruited according to the standards set by Yunxiang, and recruited six first, all of them are about 1.7 meters tall, with sweet looks and cheerful personalities, they are all college students, most of them are from the music major of the art department where Gao Fei is located, and they can also sing and dance, but they gave Yunxiang a surprise.
The beautiful girl's hot dance will also attract some young male customers to the restaurant.
Early in the morning, after eating a bowl of steaming beef noodles in a bowl of fragrant food, Yunxiang greeted the snowflakes and made a call to Wang Che of Shengshi Bank while enjoying the snow scene.
"Hello, Mr. Yun, is there anything I can serve you?" said an extremely respectful voice from the other side.
"I want to send some money to two people. β
"Don't be so troublesome, you can transfer money directly from a private message or bank card, it's very convenient. β
"I don't want them to know that I sent the money, so I have to hide my name, and it's better not to show the location of the bank where the money was sent. β
Wang Che secretly thought, doing good deeds without leaving a name, the realm of this rich boy is high, "This is easy to do, I can call anyone from any Shengshi Bank in the country and ask them to handle it, so that they will not find out." β
"That's the best, I'll send you the address and transfer the money to you. β
"Okay, I'll send you a screenshot of the remittance directly after I've remitted it, and it's not too late for you to transfer it to me when the time comes. β
"Okay, that's it. β
Yun Xiang sent him the address of Che Xiaoyu's house and the address of Qin Xiang's house, Wang Che was very efficient, and it was done in less than ten minutes, Yun Xiang received the transfer details he sent him, and after confirmation, he transferred the money to him through a private message.
After wandering around the snowy street for a while, Yunxiang decided to go to the night tavern music restaurant, when he saw a familiar figure walking by the side of the street.
It was Liu Jiaying, a white down jacket, as if she had melted into the snow, but she looked hurried and walked quickly, as if she was in a hurry.
Yun Xiang's heart moved, and he followed her unhurriedly, only to see her walk to the bus sign at the intersection, and a No. 58 bus happened to come to the stop sign, and she immediately got on the bus.
It turned out that she was going to catch the bus at this time, and it was such a cold day on the weekend, and it was snowing heavily, what was she going out for?
Yunxiang became curious about this warm-hearted girl, so she ran with the two buses, the direction of the bus was northwest of Wancheng District, about half an hour later, she got off at a bus stop in Liujiatai Town, Wancheng District, and then she walked for ten minutes, walked to a very remote place, stopped at the door of a special education kindergarten called Hope and walked in.
The kindergarten is not a building, it is a small courtyard.
Yun Xiang followed to enter, but was stopped by the doorman, "Who are you?" said an old man in a security uniform.
"Hello, uncle, I was passing by and wanted to go in and visit. β
"What is there to visit in this kindergarten, idlers are not allowed to enter!" he said as he looked at Yun Xiang vigilantly.
"What kind of kindergarten is this?"
"Don't you see the name?" he pointed to the sign at the entrance of the kindergarten, "Special education kindergartens, of course, are for special children, that is, those with intellectual disabilities, or mental and mental disorders!"
Liu Jiaying really did not give up her ideals.
"Can I go in and have a look?"
"No way!"
"Just now I seemed to see a girl walk in. β
"People are volunteers and temporary teachers, of course they can enter!" he looked at Yun Xiang suspiciously, "Didn't you take a fancy to that girl, do you have any bad intentions?!"
This old man is really cautious and suspicious, but he is also dedicated, Yun Xiang smiled, "I really came to visit, and I may invest in this kindergarten for free?"
The old man almost spurted out old blood, "Just you still invest, young man, although I am old, but my head is not dizzy and not dazzling, my brain is not broken, I still have an eye for people, you look at you, you are dressed so ordinary, you are not very old, you are sweating on your head, you don't see a car at first glance, you definitely don't have a car, you say you want to invest? I don't believe it!"
Observing quite carefully, Yun Xiang smiled slightly, didn't speak again, and secretly thought that it seemed that he couldn't get in, so he couldn't climb over the wall for a while.
Just as he was about to leave, someone suddenly said, "Young man, what you said is true?" Yun Xiang turned around and saw a middle-aged woman also coming to the door.
"Director Zhang. The doorman immediately shouted.
Director Zhang nodded, looked at Yunxiang again, and asked curiously: "Young man, you said that you can invest in the kindergarten for free?"
"Of course it's true. β
"Come in with me. β
When the doorman heard this, he quickly opened the iron door, and the two walked in, the small courtyard was already full of snow, and more than ten bungalows were distributed on the east and west sides of the courtyard, and the voices of children came from the room, including laughter, crying, and strange whining sounds from the mouth, as well as the sound of music, and some children were singing.
The kindergarten is small, but it is lively.
Compared with the star rehabilitation kindergarten on Xiaobao in Linghai City, the area of the star kindergarten is more than 100 times larger than this, or the building is built, there are more than 200 teachers alone, and the gap is simply too big.
I followed her to a bungalow in the far northwest, a small office, with a desk, a cupboard for materials, and a bed, which had no display but a pot of thorn balls.
"Let me introduce myself first, I am the principal of this kindergarten, my name is Zhang Wen. β
"My name is Yunxiang. β
"You may be seated. She smiled and said, "Drink water?"
"Thank you, I'm not thirsty. Yun Xiang sat down across from him, a chair that seemed to be made by hand.
There was a frolicking sound outside, and I saw Liu Jiaying walking out of a classroom with a few children, "Children, it's snowing today, let's build a snowman together, okay?"
"Okay......," the children replied in a very irregular manner.
"Then let me ask you first, what color is the snow?"
β¦β¦
"Her name is Liu Jiaying. The middle-aged woman saw Yun Xiang paying attention to the window and said.
Yun Xiang retracted his gaze, "Is she the teacher here?"
"Yes, it's just a temporary volunteer teacher, and I'm still in college, and I come here every Saturday and Sunday as a volunteer teacher, no salary, and sometimes I buy some toys and teaching aids for kindergarten and children, and I'm a very enthusiastic girl. β
"Oh...... Do you have many kindergarten teachers?"
She shook her head and said, "Including me and Liu Jiaying, there are a total of seven people, and they all have no salary." β
Yun Xiang was curious: "They are willing to come here without a salary?"
"Yes, because their children also go to kindergarten here, they can come here for free tuition and take care of their own children. β
"Is that all the case?"
She nodded, "Yes, even me." β
"Your child is sick too?"
"He's too, but he's twenty years old and now in college. Her eyes flashed with relief and joy.
Children with autism are destined to have an extremely tragic life, they will always live in their own world, they don't want to communicate with anyone, they can't even speak, a lot of intelligence is also very defective, no one intervenes to take care of them, they can't live a normal life at all, the mother of the autistic child in front of them can actually raise their children to adulthood, and go to college, which is undoubtedly very successful.
"It must have been a lot of hard work. β
"Yes, it takes a thousand times more effort than normal children to get today's results, so after the child went to college, it was my heart knot, but it made me feel the hardships and pain of the family with such a child, so my husband and I decided to build such a kindergarten, with my years of experience and learning, to do something within our power for these children and their families, however, the ideal is very full, the reality is very skinny, it takes a lot of money to open such a rehabilitation institution, first of all, there must be a place, and then you need a variety of teaching aids, daily necessities, etc., fortunately, the teacher has no salary, otherwise there will be a lot of expensesβ¦β¦ To be honest, it's a bit unsustainable now. β
Yun Xiang wondered: "It's so poor, don't those children have to pay tuition when they come here?" Yun Xiang thought of Qin Xiang's child Cui Xiaobao, the monthly tuition fee of the Star Rehabilitation Kindergarten in Linghai is three or four thousand, which is still a special quota for difficult households, of course, Xiaobao was later exempted from tuition, and remembering that this matter is also related to Liu Jiaying, who is building a snowman with children outside the window. Other children have to pay 10,000 or 20,000 yuan a month for tuition, and the average family has to sell iron to afford it.
She smiled bitterly: "People with a little money will choose rehabilitation centers with better conditions, and they will not come to our place, they all think that our teachers here are not good at teaching and the conditions are poor, and they would rather spend a lot of money to send their children to better institutions." Therefore, the children who come here are all children from families who can't afford to go to the kind of large-scale private rehabilitation kindergartens, and the families are generally very difficult, so I charge very little tuition, and even less than an ordinary public kindergarten charges, and those fees are used for the children's daily eating, drinking, and Lasa, but it is not enough at all, and I will pay out of my own pocket to make ends meet. β
