Chapter 111: Uninvited Guest
Ye Chen glanced at the children who were playing in the courtyard, then looked at the dean, and sighed again.
The dean has been working hard for the welfare cause since he joined the workforce.
Since becoming the director of the welfare home, the director has rarely rested, and he has always had to worry about the safety of the children at night.
Basically, the dean has devoted all his time to the Green Forest Welfare Institute in the past few decades.
"Dean, why don't you rest after a while, you're getting older, it's time for you to enjoy your old age in peace. Ye Chen said seemingly casually, but he was very sad in his heart.
"In a little while, I'll retire when the orphanage is renovated. ”
The dean said with a smile, and at the same time got up to pour Ye Chen a cup of hot water.
Ye Chen looked at the back of the dean's vicissitudes of life, and suddenly felt a sense of sadness.
This is not the first time that Ye Chen has said such a thing, and it will not be the first time that the dean has refused after a while.
"The welfare home is my home, and I am very happy to see these children go out into society and become useful people, and I am talking about retirement. ”
The dean smiled and sat down beside Ye Chen and brought over a cup of hot water.
"Haha, let's go see the kids. ”
"Okay, let's take you to see the newly built vegetable garden of the welfare home. ”
The dean smiled kindly, and Ye Chen was also smiling, ready to see the changes in the welfare home, but suddenly heard a quarrel outside.
"What's going on?"
Ye Chen frowned, and listened carefully, the sound of the quarrel was also the sound of Xiao Xi shouting.
"I don't know, let's go out and have a look. ”
Ye Chen and the dean walked side by side to the door of the welfare home, and saw a bunch of children surrounding a pile of beautifully packaged fruits, Ye Chen wanted to say something to the dean, but the air was filled with the smell of rotten fruits.
"Rotten?"
Ye Chen muttered, and at the same time walked quickly to the door, seeing that many of the fruits in the package were rotten, and the air was filled with a disgusting smell.
At the entrance of the welfare home, a large truck is parked, on which a steady stream of boxes of rotten fruit are being removed.
"Who's so bold. ”
Ye Chen rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go up and reason with others.
"Alas, it's them again. The dean sighed, and at the same time looked at the fruits in the courtyard and continued: "These people are from the donation department of the magic capital, and they said that they recently distributed fruits to our welfare home, but in fact, they are all waste. ”
"Think of us as a garbage dump?"
Ye Chen gritted his teeth and said, and at the same time looked at the word "care" on the clothes of the porters on the truck.
"Pretty much every time they came, they took pictures and left, and for the first time, a few children ate rotten fruit and went straight to the hospital that night. ”
After the dean finished speaking, he let out a long sigh.
"It's too much!"
Ye Chen looked at the fruit on the truck and said angrily.
"Alas, child, you are still too young, they all have people behind them, and the above is to donate to me, but in the end, not a penny actually reaches us. The dean's old lips were shriveled, and his eyes were full of tears.
"I'm going to clean them up!"
Ye Chen said, and at the same time repeatedly rolled up his sleeves and prepared to drive the truck away first, when he suddenly saw Xiao Xi next to the door.
Xiao Xi's face was full of tears, and it could be thought that he must have tried his best to prevent the truck from stopping here just now, but in the end, it must have been to no avail.
"Ye Chen, don't go. ”
Xiao Xi grabbed Ye Chen's arm tightly, and tears couldn't help flowing down again.
Ye Chen pursed his lips tightly, looked at Xiao Xi and then at the truck, and asked in a low voice:
"Where did these people come from?"
"It's all from the Southwest Branch of the Red Cross in the Demon Capital, these people are all innocent, but they are responsible for sending them over, and they don't want to do it......"
Xiao Xi said, crying in a low voice.
When Ye Chen heard Xiao Xi say this, he became even more angry in his heart.
These so-called branch people must have divided the money above, so they just found some porters to come over and make up the numbers.
And what really made Ye Chen angry was that they came over to deliver some bad fruits that they couldn't eat at all, and they also came to take pictures, just to complete the task of their superiors, and they didn't take the children in the welfare home into their eyes at all.
"I'm going to find out who came up with the bad idea. ”
Xiao Xi said in a low voice, while wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, picked up his mobile phone and walked to the room of the welfare home.
Ye Chen glanced at the fruits that were spoiled everywhere, and he had mixed feelings in his heart.
If these children are in the ordinary home, they will become the treasures of the parents' hands, but this is a welfare home, even if the director wants the children to grow up with peace of mind, but it still can't stop the destruction of society.
The most odious thing is that in the eyes of the citizens, these cross societies are really doing charity, and they can continue to cheat money with peace of mind.
"Don't eat the children, the dean will throw away these bad fruits again in a while, and go outside to buy apples for you to eat, okay?"
The dean said with a smile, and the children laughed happily when they heard the dean say this, not noticing the dean's moist eyes.
Hearing the dean say this, Ye Chen's heart became even more uncomfortable, and he was even more distressed when he saw that several children were still rummaging through some slightly edible fruits in the box.
"Dean......" Ye Chen said in a low voice, while taking out his wallet and handing it to the dean.
"Ye Chen, don't use it. ”
The dean choked up, tears silently sliding down his cheeks.
Ye Chen also understands very well in his heart that this is just a drop in the bucket, a charity of this size like the Green Forest Welfare Institute, there are nearly 20 in the magic capital alone, and how many children live like this?
Ye Chen didn't dare to imagine.
For these poor children, the only thing that can be done is to adapt as soon as possible.
"I found this unit, now in the past?"
Xiao Xi rubbed his red eyes, and angrily kicked away a rotten apple at his feet.
"You two young children, it's such a pleasure to meet you. ”
The dean hurriedly turned his back, obviously not wanting the children to see him crying, and said:
"Even if I use your money to buy fruit this time, there may not be any activities next time, and the welfare home will suffer again, what you need to do is to solve the problem at the root. ”
"Yes. ”
Ye Chen nodded, looked at Xiao Xi resolutely and said:
"We can't be with the kids all the time, so let's get over now. ”
Xiao Xi raised his head and happened to see Ye Chen's resolute eyes, and his little face couldn't help but blush.
