Chapter 203

On Sunday, the last day he volunteered, Lin Shu came a little earlier than usual. He didn't come on a bus arranged by the school, but Ran Feng drove the car and followed the delivery truck of the furniture store to the welfare home.

Because it was so early, most of the children in the hospital had not yet gotten up. When Li Yusheng ran out wearing a vest, what he saw was two workers moving a colorful children's bookshelf into the courtyard.

After moving the bookshelves, Lin Shu sent away two workers, and moved in a bunch of bits and pieces with Ran Feng. Li Yusheng followed him and watched for a while, and after Lin Shu put down his things, he touched them again, and found that there were books, DVDs, and some bits and pieces of stationery and toys.

In fact, not to mention the bookshelves, what Lin Shu will bring is still not much different from what he brought on the first day. The price of everything combined is still not very high.

But Li Yusheng couldn't say against his will that Lin Shu brought ...... It's something that is worthless.

He felt that these things were very valuable. Perhaps the actual value is several times higher than the original.

The boy was always unfazed, and although he smiled most of the time, the polite smile did not prove that he was happy.

When they first met, they made a rather bad impression on each other. But the wonderful thing is that the two did not end up being incompatible with each other...... Li Yusheng felt that it was Lin Shu's credit, not his.

Li Yusheng couldn't help but think, what did the other party think of him? Hypocrites? Poor man? But either way...... Probably not a positive image, right?

He felt a little sad.

In the interval, he walked up and asked Lin Shu, "You are volunteering, today is the last day, right?" ”

Lin Shu replied, "Yes." School is about to start. ”

Li Yusheng said: "Then you won't come here again in the future, right?" ”

His tone sounded a little reluctant, Lin Shu noticed this and looked at him a little surprised. After a while, he replied, "I don't know anything like that. There are no guarantees. ”

What does this mean, maybe it will come again?

Li Yusheng couldn't tell the meaning of this answer, he wanted to ask, but he felt embarrassed to continue to ask, and finally he could only ponder in his heart.

After that, Li Anan and Ju Mingfeng appeared one after another. Lin Shu gave her the new hearing aids he bought. Li Anan was surprised at first, and then a little excited and embarrassed. At the instigation of Ye Qingdie, she used a new hearing aid, and then said that "I feel much clearer".

Among the children of similar age, Li Yusheng and Li Anan are the only two left, one is deaf and the other is lame, which can be said to be sympathetic. So at that moment, Li Yusheng really felt that he should do something from the bottom of his heart.

He shouted at Lin Shu: "Lin Shu! ”

Lin Shu looked up at him.

He said very seriously: "I'm really sorry. ”

Lin Shu didn't know why he started to apologize again, and said, "You have apologized several times. ”

Of course Li Yusheng knows, but for him, every time he apologizes before, he has a different mood.

He said seriously: "I think I have a misunderstanding of you. You're different...... I shouldn't look at you with prejudice because of other people's attitudes. ”

Lin Shu listened, but suddenly said: "I don't think I'm any different from others, and I don't understand what happened in the past, which would make you feel that those who come to volunteer will have bad intentions." ”

Li Yusheng froze in place and didn't speak for a while. Prejudice builds up over time, but it's hard to say what it is. Li Yusheng doesn't like to explain the bits and pieces of this to others, because others will not understand the sensitivity and stinging in his heart, and whoever he says it to may be ridiculed and disregarded.

But he didn't want Lin Shu to feel that he was a snob and despicable person in the end.

So after a while, he said, "Before, the child who came to volunteer before you was about the same age as you, and he took a few chocolates...... Let Xiaobai learn to bark and pretend to be a puppy, who will pretend to be like a ...... Just give them chocolate. ”

Lin Shu was stunned.

Li Yusheng continued: "I won't talk about self-esteem or anything, because we don't have self-esteem in the first place. Since I was a child, I have relied on donations for food and clothing, so where do I have any self-esteem? As he spoke, tears fell, and he stretched out his sleeve to wipe it, and continued, "The teacher said, "Don't eat the food that comes from you. But the one who doesn't eat the food that comes to me dies quickly, and I don't know what dignity is, but I don't want to die. It's hard to feel hungry...... Starving to death only makes it more sad, right? ”

He sat on the ground with his knees folded, buried his head in his lap, and continued: "But even if we don't have much self-esteem, we ...... It can't be worth just one chocolate, right? I sometimes think a lot...... If you have to pretend to be a puppy, I want you to get not one or two worthless chocolates. ”

Lin Shu listened, but slowly understood Li Yusheng's thoughts.

He suddenly asked, "The ...... Xiaobai, are they pretending to be puppies? ”

Li Yusheng said: "Pretend." Everyone dressed up, Tian Tian dressed up the most, and a girl saw Coke and gave her three chocolates. He said this, his voice and eyes were a little cold, "So you see, if your friend really wants to see my feet, I'm willing to show them." My feet were naturally deformed, ugly, and I didn't like to see them myself. If you don't feel disgusting, I don't really care about showing people. I don't think three chocolates can buy me to do this kind of thing...... But a meal with a large piece of meat is definitely enough. That day, I thought, your meal of meat is more than thirty-six people, so even if I am allowed to walk up the street with my feet exposed and pretend to be a puppy for others...... I think it's worth it. ”

Lin Shu was really touched at that moment.

The young man shredded his dignity and showed it to Lin Shu. His dignity is very worthless, worthless. That's not his problem, it's the circumstances in which he lives that doomed him to have so much. He set a lot of things strictly, and defended himself and his friends with this behavior...... It seems that this is the only way to gain a foothold in this world that is completely unfair to them.

Lin Shu suddenly asked, "What do they think, Xiaobai?" Do they feel uncomfortable too? ”

Li Yusheng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No...... They didn't notice anything, and they had a lot of fun with them. ”

Lin Shu listened and said, "Li Yusheng, I'll tell you a story too, okay?" ”

Li Yusheng was stunned for a moment before replying, "...... Well. ”

Lin Shu opened his mouth and said: "When I was in elementary school, there was a classmate in my class, who was a tall and chubby girl, and she was very greedy and liked to eat. Although he has a good personality, he is always teased and bullied by boys. She was a very thin and short, slightly dark boy at the table, but he was the only boy who had a good relationship with the girl and wouldn't tease her. ”

"Girls really like to eat and bring all kinds of delicious food to school every day. Her table mates would sometimes rub snacks from her, and the girls would share them with him. Later, a little game developed between the two of them, that is, the girl made some messy demands, and she felt that she could not do it, and if the same table did it, she would lose to the same table as the same food. ”

"The bet isn't really worth much, sometimes it's a handful of potato chips, sometimes it's half an orange. The boy's family is not poor, and there is no shortage of food, this is a game he plays with others. ”

When Lin Shu said this, Li Yusheng didn't understand what he wanted to say - he thought that Lin Shu might be trying to say that pretending to be a puppy or something was just a game, but it was completely different from what Lin Shu said.

Li Yusheng continued to listen quietly.

Lin Shu said: "The requirements made by girls are actually just some requirements that are not a big deal, such as the golden rooster being independent for a few minutes, reading tongue twisters and the like...... But then the boy's mother found out about it, and she didn't know how she heard it, so she ended up at school anyway, and scolded the girl, saying that the girl played her at the same table as a monkey. Later, the teacher moved the seats of the two of them, and the girl never played with him again. ”

Li Yusheng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't say it for a while.

Lin Shu said: "Na, I don't know what the people who let your younger brothers and sisters pretend to be puppies think, and I can't be sure if they did it on purpose." But I don't think they meant to bully your siblings. Before I came here, I also spent a little bit of time trying to figure out how to get along with everyone. I think you just don't know how to play with your little brothers and sisters, so you just chose a game that doesn't fit so well. ”

Li Yusheng was silent for a long time before he said: "But that kind of game makes people feel very angry!" I don't like them doing that. ”

Actually, this sentence is the truth, right?

Lin Shu replied, "Then you can go and tell them this directly next time." It's the first time for everyone to do it, and they may not be doing it very well. If you don't say anything, how will they know what's wrong? ”

After a long time, Li Yusheng spoke: "I'll say it next time." ”

Lin Shu laughed.

As he said before, many children may not like to do the volunteer work at this time. Some are just to avoid homework, some are just curious. Whether you like to do it or not is something that you can only know after you have done it.

But how well you did in the end, whether you can spend this time happily, and whether you can learn anything important from each other are the results of the joint efforts of both parties.

The school hopes that the students can see the hardships of the world from this group of children and learn to help others, and the welfare institute hopes that such activities can bring help to the children, and feel the small warmth and joy that they can get from their congenital unfortunate life, which is not a transaction, but an exchange.
