Chapter 176: Bitterness in the Heart

Seeing that Dong Shi was still hesitant, the old dean sighed, she knew that the reason why Dong Shi was so hesitant was naturally because of herself and the children, although she felt very warm in her heart, but she couldn't delay Dong Shi's life because of this.

"Dong Shi, I know you want to lighten the burden for me, but you might as well think about it from another angle, if you go to college and have a career, wouldn't that be a better way to help me and the orphanage!"

The old dean glanced at Qin Xuan, and then continued: "In the past, you were blind, I don't want to say much, but now that your eyes are better, you can also fight for your life like a normal person, even if you go out to find a job now, I believe that your help to me and the orphanage is very weak, but if you go to college and have a chance, it may be a matter of your words to help us in the future." ”

Although the old dean is old, but the wisdom condensed over the years has already seen the world clearly, she clearly knows that people are soft-spoken, if they have no status and no real ability, even if they want to help others, but in the end they are powerless.

"Old Dean, I know what to do, don't worry, but I'll come here often before I get admitted to college!"

At this time, Dong Shi also made a decision, she didn't want to disobey the old dean's opinion, and she still remembered that Aunt Zhou's ardent hope, now that she has the opportunity, she also wants to work hard, and after making achievements in the future, she will repay the old dean and that Aunt Zhou.

"Hehe, of course it will do, if you don't come, I'll miss you!"

Seeing that Dong Shi finally decided, the old dean was also happy and said, if her child can be promising, what is she not happy about!

"Hehe, Xiao Xuan, it's noon now, if you don't dislike it, stay and have a meal together at noon, Dong Shi has already told me everything you helped her, thank you for taking care of her during this time!"

The old dean turned his head, looked at Qin Xuan, and said with a kind smile.

"Hehe, old dean, you don't have to be so polite to me, you are Dong Shi's relative, and I have long regarded you as my relative, here, I will treat it as my own home, how can you say that I dislike my own home!"

Qin Xuan immediately said with a smile, Qin Xuan is very respectful to the old dean, after all, she alone has taken in so many children, she is worthy of Qin Xuan's respect.

"Hehe, that's good, that's good, Dong Shi, you accompany Xiaoxuan to see everywhere first, and when the meal is ready, I'll call Liu'er to call you!"

Hearing Qin Xuan's words, the old dean nodded with satisfaction, although he had not been in contact with Qin Xuan for a long time, he also found that Qin Xuan had the ability, Dong was polite, and among the young people he had come into contact with, there were not many of them.

glanced at Dong Shi next to him, the old dean nodded with satisfaction, and then smiled and pulled Liu Er next to him and walked out.

"Qin Xuan, I'll go with you!"

Seeing the old dean and the two walking out, the room was quiet, Dong Shi raised his head slightly, looked at Qin Xuan, and said softly.

"Okay, I'm idle now anyway, so it's okay to take a look!"

After Qin Xuan finished speaking, he took the lead in walking out, looking at the emerald green willows outside the door, feeling the strong vitality above, Qin Xuan also felt very comfortable.

Although the life in this orphanage is a little poor, the environment is excellent, and the ground is also cleaned and tidy, not like the dirty outside.

"By the way, Dong Shi, you haven't told me why there are so few people here, I usually see a lot of children in the orphanage on TV, and there are many volunteers who take care of them, how can I find out why this place is so quiet?"

Qin Xuan suddenly thought of the question he asked Dong Shi before, but Dong Shi said that he would answer it later, but now that he remembered it, he wanted to ask clearly.

"This question, didn't it be said that there was going to be planning and rectification here, and the government people came to discuss with the old dean and took the children to the newly established orphanage, and the old dean was very nostalgic for this place, so he stayed!"

Dong Shi walked slowly, slowly admiring everything in the yard, and then continued:

After the old dean stayed, she saw that the huge courtyard was empty, and her heart was empty, and finally she went outside and took some of the stray children outside, these are the children.

The old director originally wanted to go to the government to send these children to the orphanage, but he was told that there was no room for the newly built orphanage, and the government would give the old director some money every month to adopt the children, and also told the old director that they would contact other orphanages, and as long as there were some spare places, the children would be taken over immediately.

But to this day there is no response, and in the end, the old dean did not go to the government again, but raised these children by himself.

The money given by the government every month is simply not enough, and sometimes the old dean has to go outside to pick up garbage, so that the children's lives can be better. ”

"I see, no wonder!"

Hearing Dong Shi's words, Qin Xuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and Qin Xuan also respected the old dean even more.

"Hehe, in fact, I feel that life is already very good now, you don't know that before the original line of children moved away, our life was more miserable!"

Dong Shi heard Qin Xuan's exclamation and said with a faint smile.

"Then the government doesn't care?"

Qin Xuan asked with some confusion.

"Of course we do, otherwise we wouldn't have rebuilt an orphanage, but our conditions here have been bad, so it is inevitable that some aspects will not be taken into account, but as long as we survive, everything will be fine!"

Dong Shi glanced at Qin Xuan, she didn't know what Qin Xuan's past was, but from Qin Xuan's life now, it was not difficult for her to guess that life was definitely better than her.

"Hehe, it's good that you can think like this, in fact, my life when I was a child was not very good!"

Qin Xuan said with a faint smile, a trace of bitterness crossed his face imperceptibly.

"Can you tell me about your previous life?"

Dong Shi suddenly stopped, looked at Qin Xuan and asked calmly.

"Hehe, you want to hear it, I'll tell you!"

The two walked quietly like this, one was talking, the other was listening, and when they finally arrived at the road, the two stopped.

"It turns out that your life when you were a child was like this, although it was very hard, but it was much more interesting than us!"

After hearing Qin Xuan's words, Dong Shi said with a faint smile.

"Hehe, I think so too!"

Qin Xuan nodded and smiled.

"Sister Dong, Brother Qin, it's time to eat!"

At this time, Liu Er shouted loudly to the two of them in the distance.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and after a response, they walked over to that side.

Seeing the dishes on the table, Qin Xuan couldn't help but whisper in Liu Er's ear, "Do you eat these cabbages and potatoes every day, and there is nothing else?"

"yes, but we'll have meat at the end of the month!"

Liu Er nodded lightly, then picked up her bowl and ate quietly.

Qin Xuan looked at the dozen or so children around him all holding their own rice bowls, eating very seriously one by one, Qin Xuan suddenly felt that something seemed to be blocked in his heart, and he seemed to be a little out of breath.

"Xiao Xuan, that's all for our meals here, if there's anything wrong with the greeting, don't you mind!"

At this time, the old dean looked at Qin Xuan and said with a gentle smile, she learned from Dong Shi that Qin Xuan's life was very good, so she was a little afraid that Qin Xuan would not be used to this.

Although she also wanted to make a few side dishes for Qin Xuan, after all, Qin Xuan cured her illness, but she searched around the kitchen, but she couldn't find any food except cabbage and potatoes.

"Hehe, old dean, it's okay, this meal is very good, I'm used to eating!"

Qin Xuan picked up the bowl on the table, sandwiched the dishes, and ate it very seriously.

Seeing Qin Xuan's appearance, the old dean nodded, she could see that Qin Xuan was not the slightest pretentious, and he was really eating his meal very seriously.

From Qin Xuan's behavior, she also guessed that although Qin Xuan's life is very good now, he must have lived a hard life before, otherwise he would not know how to cherish it.

Although Qin Xuan was seriously eating the rice in the bowl, his heart was extremely bitter, he didn't know if the children in these orphanages had been eating such meals all the time, but he had only seen these today.

And this is still in the case of greeting him, who can be said to be a guest, if it is normal, then what do they eat?

Looking at the dozen or so children in front of him, he took a small bite of the rice in the bowl very seriously, and even Qin Xuan saw the little girl named Bao'er, and picked up the rice grains that had fallen on the table and put them in the bowl again, all of which made Qin Xuan's heart even more bitter.

Although Qin Xuan is not very rich, and he can't help so many poor people in the world, but with the dozen or so orphans in front of him, Qin Xuan believes that he can still take care of them, and at this time, he also made a decision in his heart.

After eating, Qin Xuan came to the door of the old dean's room, and after knocking on the door, Qin Xuan pushed the door and entered.

"Xiao Xuan, did you come to me for something?"

Seeing Qin Xuan come in, the old dean who was sewing and mending the children's clothes said kindly.

"Old Dean, tell me the truth, do these children eat these meals every day?"

Qin Xuan looked at the old dean and asked with a serious expression.

Hearing Qin Xuan's words, the old dean put a shabby piece of clothing in his hand back into the basket, sighed, and then said:

"Yes, the children eat this every day, and I want them to eat something good, but the government only gives me so much money every month, and now I only hope that the government can contact other orphanages as soon as possible, after all, their life is much better than ours!"

Qin Xuan knew that the old dean was telling the truth, nodded slightly, and then handed a bank card to the old dean, and said:

"Old dean, this is a bank card, although the money is not much, but it is also a little bit of my heart, and every month in the future, I will put 10,000 yuan into it, you accept it first, I just hope that the children's lives are better!"

PS: I wish you all a happy life!
