Chapter 317: The Orphanage
The "courtyard" in Yang Zhao's mouth naturally refers to the orphanage where they grew up together, and the orphanage is in Jinling, which is not very far from where Zhuang Yan lives.
Before he crossed over, the predecessor would pass every one or two months, but since Zhuang Yan crossed over, he has never been there.
The reason why he didn't go over was because he was afraid that he would be a little embarrassed in the face of the teachers who brought him up before, and he was afraid that he wouldn't know what emotions to use to face it.
"I knew you weren't. Zhuang Yan didn't move here, and Yang Zhao sighed over there, "Zhuang Yan, we orphans can grow up so big, not by ourselves, but by the teachers in the hospital." I've always admired you in this regard, you were the one we went back to the most often, but now, how long has it been since you went back to see it?"
Yang Zhao is right, the most important thing to thank these orphans for being like this is the teachers in the orphanage. Their orphanage was nominally co-founded with the Civil Affairs Bureau of the city government, but in fact it was just named.
In China, such orphanages, also known as children's welfare homes, must be registered with the government. But even if you are registered, the government will not care about you, will not give you funds, and will not help development, at most it will give the orphanage the right to raise donations from the society.
Zhuang Yan is a group of people who grew up in the orphanage, so up to now, the orphanage is slightly better, because people like Zhuang Yan who have grown up to work will feed back and occasionally donate a little money.
But it's just a little less stressful, the first batch of people to enter the society has actually been seven or eight years, but this group of people basically dropped out of school halfway, their jobs are not very good, and their lives are not well cooked, how can there be any energy to give back.
Like Zhuang Yan, these group of university graduates have only graduated for two or three years at most, and they have just entered the society, and their economic strength is limited.
Although Yang Zhao didn't go back much before, he gave the most money every time he went back, and he would give two or three thousand every time.
But two or three thousand yuan, in fact, I can't even afford to pay for a child.
The students in the orphanage, the orphanage will generally pay for them to go to high school, and as for whether they will go to college next, it is up to them to decide.
For these orphans, the state has a policy of student loans, and the money given is quite a lot, which is basically enough for the entire expenses of an ordinary college student for four years.
Zhuang Yan took out a student loan at that time, and he borrowed a total of 40,000 yuan, but he paid it off before graduation, because there were also many scholarships at the university, and Zhuang Yan got a total of 18,000 yuan a year.
Returning to reality from his thoughts, Zhuang Yan said: "You're right, I haven't done a good job recently, so let's do it, I can't go back to Yanjing, you go to ask Dean Zhou and Teacher Li to come over on my behalf, and when you get to the hospital, I will call them." ”
Yang Zhao smiled, "That's right, in addition, I don't plan to go over empty-handed this time, I'm going to donate 50,000 yuan to the hospital, and the 50,000 yuan is half for the two of us, how about it?"
Zhuang Yan thought for a while and said, "Don't be half of a person, so let's do it, there should be money in the company's account now, just donate 100,000 yuan in the name of the company." You ask Lao Li their opinion, after all, they also have shares in the company. ”
"They have a opinion, and I'm in charge of it. Yang Zhao said.
The reason why Zhuang Yan wants to donate from the company is, of course, that he wants to give a little more, after all, he accounts for the majority of the company's shares, and he also accounts for a little more of the 100,000 yuan. Moreover, all the money in the company's account is now transferred from Zhuang Yan's own account. In fact, he also paid for the 100,000 alone.
Yang Zhao said that he would go to the orphanage in the afternoon, but Zhuang Yan didn't wait for him to go over, and called Dean Zhou first.
Dean Zhou is in his 60s this year, and he was in his early forties when he founded the orphanage. He is a teacher himself, he used to be a Chinese teacher in Jinling No. 1 Middle School, and then he suddenly wanted to come out and build an orphanage by himself for some reason.
At that time, his family was against it, he and his wife had been married for more than ten years, and they had a son and a daughter, one was ten years old and the other was seven years old. According to his wife, his two children can't take care of it, so you have to take care of the other children?
But Dean Zhou was very keen to do this at that time, and at that time he quit his job, and ran up and down every day just to get a qualification to start an orphanage.
When the qualifications came down, he spent money to find a place, and then went to the society to find a volunteer teacher.
But after looking for a few months, he didn't find a teacher who was willing to come over for free to be a teacher, so in desperation, he took out a part of the money as the teacher's salary, but this part of the money was still not much, and he finally found two teachers after looking for several months, one of which was Teacher Li mentioned by Zhuang Yan before.
Another teacher, Gu, was in his seventies when he arrived at the orphanage, and he had already become an ancient man when Zhuang Yan was in high school.
At that time, when the orphanage first opened, Dean Zhou himself and these two teachers added it, and the orphanage was opened, and the first batch of orphans were accepted, and Dean Zhou also brought his two children to school in the courtyard.
At that time, because of this, Dean Zhou's wife almost divorced him, but in the end she still did not leave, it may be a compromise, or it may be really understood, anyway, his wife has not said anything all these years.
The two children are even more understanding, and they have never complained about their father because of this since they were young, and maybe they have complained at some point, but at least they have never shown it.
Receiving Zhuang Yan's call, Dean Zhou was a little surprised, because he hadn't received a call from Zhuang Yan for ** months. Zhuang Yan's current situation, Dean Zhou also knows, he has also read several books written by Zhuang Yan, and he likes it very much.
Dean Zhou has never complained about Zhuang Yan not coming back, because Zhuang Yan in his impression is not the kind of person who is not grateful. If Zhuang Yan was really that kind of person, he would not be the most diligent child who came back from the courtyard.
When Zhuang Yan was still in college, the school gave him a scholarship of 5,000 yuan, and he could take 1,000 yuan back.
"Zhuang Yan, how can you have time to call back when you are so busy?" said Dean Zhou.
Zhuang Yan's face turned red all of a sudden, although he knew that Dean Zhou didn't mean to ridicule him, but it was a fact that he hadn't been back for a long time, so he naturally felt ashamed when he mentioned this. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
