Chapter 0302: Zheng Rui Arrives Home
Laughing and laughing along the way, but it was happy, Zhao Xuan is the communication link between Wang Xiaoting and Zheng Rui, after all, the two have not seen each other for several days, and the two have not spoken a few words before, so they still need to run in.
Wang Xiaoting herself has an approachable temperament, maybe she loves the house and Wu, Zheng Rui, a little self-acquaintance, did not resist Wang Xiaoting, so the two quickly got acquainted.
Seeing two beauties chatting, one big and one small, Zhao Xuan sat on the side, which was quite relaxed.
The hour's drive ended quickly, perhaps because of the big brother Zhao Xuan by her side, Zheng Rui didn't have much to worry about.
Or maybe she's nervous, but she's trying not to show it.
If Zhao Xuan is not a Langzi, but a person who likes to be quiet and likes to stay in one place and is unwilling to move his nest, to be honest, it is not impossible to have such a lovely sister as Zheng Rui.
But Zhao Xuan was born Langzi and likes to move around, and his current stay in Huaicheng is only temporary, if there are really more little guys like Zheng Rui around him, he is really afraid that he will not be able to take care of himself.
And Wang Xiaoting is an unmarried girl, she has just found a job now, this job is really important to her, it doesn't matter if she stays with an eleven or twelve-year-old child for ten days and half a month, if it is a long-term one, the impact is too great and inappropriate.
So there was really no way, Zhao Xuan and Wang Xiaoting finally decided to send Zheng Rui back to the orphanage.
After all, she has grown up here, and the environment is very adaptable, so there should be no problems.
At the end of the ride, the three got out of the car, and still needed to follow the map on their phones for two miles to reach their destination.
But it doesn't matter, it's time to take a walk.
When Zhao Xuan really saw the orphanage for the first time, he was taken aback.
Utterly dumbfounded.
Just because the appearance of the imaginary orphanage is completely inconsistent with reality, he does not see a complete building or a compound.
It's half of the ruins.
The house on the other side burned black, and although the traces of the burning on the wall seemed to be a long time ago, Zhao Xuan still seemed to be able to ask about the burning smell from the wall.
When Zhao Xuan and Wang Xiaoting walked into the gate of the orphanage, the iron gate was locked and there was no entrance.
In desperation, Zhao Xuan had no choice but to call the door.
The keeper of the door was an uncle, and when he saw someone calling for the door outside the door, the uncle walked out with a bunch of keys and squinted at Zhao Xuan and Wang Xiaoting.
"What's the matter with you two?"
Zhao Xuan said:
"Excuse me, is your Dean Wang here? I'm looking for you, Dean Wang. β
The old man glanced at Zhao Xuan and the others, and finally stopped his gaze on Zheng Rui's face, Zheng Rui seemed to be a little scared, and hurriedly hid behind Zhao Xuan, and the old man took his gaze back.
The old janitor said:
"What are you looking for Dean Wang to do?"
Zhao Xuan smiled and said:
"I'm looking for her something, let's help report it."
The janitor nodded:
"Okay, you guys wait."
Five minutes later, a gray-haired woman about fifty years old walked up with the janitor.
She was in good spirits, standing straight, her hair curly, and quite literate.
The old dean walked over, looked at Zhao Xuan and Wang Xiaoting through the door, and said suspiciously:
"You are ......"
Zheng Rui suddenly popped up:
"Grandmaβ"
The old dean immediately became excited, and hurriedly ordered the janitor to open the door.
"Ruirui!"
The door opened, and the old dean hugged Zheng Rui.
The old dean looked at Zheng Rui excitedly:
"Rui Rui has become pretty!"
Zheng Rui's rare blush:
"Grandma is talking nonsense."
The old man and the young man were excited for a long time, and the old dean remembered that Zhao Xuan and Wang Xiaoting were still standing aside.
"Ruirui, they are ......"
Zheng Rui said excitedly:
"Grandma, this is the big brother, this is the big sister."
Zhao Xuan and Wang Xiaoting were full of black lines.
Wang Xiaoting said busily:
"My name is Wang Xiaoting, and my name is Zhao Xuan."
Dean Wang stood up and stretched out his hand to Zhao Xuan:
"It's you who took in our little Ruirui, thank you so much."
Zhao Xuan shook hands with him and said lightly:
"You're welcome, that's what we're supposed to do."
Dean Wang saw that Zhao Xuan was extraordinary, and hurriedly invited Zhao Xuan to sit inside, and a group of four people entered the orphanage, Zhao Xuan saw the whole picture of the orphanage, a big courtyard, half of it was still complete, and the other side was broken walls, and there were traces of fire everywhere, which made people unbelievable.
Zhao Xuan looked at the half of the ruins and said to Dean Wang:
"Dean Wang, you ......"
Dean Wang followed Zhao Xuan's gaze, sighed softly and said:
"There was a fire here a year ago......"
As Dean Wang spoke, Zhao Xuan frowned, and Wang Xiaoting listened from the side, sighing from time to time.
Zheng Rui is still young, of course she doesn't understand these things, she just stands by Zhao Xuan's side, and she follows the same trend, it seems that there are so many people present, she still thinks that Zhao Xuan is the closest.
After listening to the story told by Dean Wang, Zhao Xuan said slowly:
"Isn't there no place for the children in the yard? There are more than 80 people, and the room was originally just enough, but now the average is four people per room. β
Dean Wang nodded and said:
"There's no way, now even my family lives with two children, and there are too few houses here for people to live in." Speaking of this, Dean Wang suddenly smiled and said, "Yes, let's not leave in this courtyard, go to my office and sit down, and I'll pour you a cup of tea." β
Five minutes later, the three of them sat in a small, dark room with a bed, two chairs, and a desk.
After sharing a room with Nangong Shishi, after seeing her bright and spacious office, it was difficult to accept this kind of small office.
Seeing Zhao Xuan's slightly frowning appearance, Dean Wang smiled and said:
"Think my office is small? Isn't it hard to accept? β
Zhao Xuan hurriedly shook his head and said:
"No, no."
Dean Wang smiled and said:
"It's okay, you don't have to be so restrained."
Zhao Xuan finally expressed the doubts in his heart:
"Dean Wang, the conditions of your orphanage are so bad, and there was a fire a few years ago, didn't the government give corresponding help? At the very least, I should help rebuild the house. β
Dean Wang smiled bitterly:
"You don't have any of this, let alone help build a house, and if this continues, the children in our orphanage will not even be able to eat."
Zhao Xuan was surprised:
"How?"
Dean Wang shook his head and said:
"Forget it, it's not a happy thing......"
The next topic was a little dull, Dean Wang was the head of the first academy, and he was over half a hundred years old, if she really wanted to make up her mind not to say anything, it was really not easy to know something from her.
But fortunately, with Zheng Rui by her side, the topics are still one after another, and it can be seen that Zheng Rui has a good relationship with Dean Wang.
"Hey, Xiaorui, you're worried about me when you run away this time, do you know that there are a lot of people who miss you, do you know that the police uncle is busy with you." Dean Wang began to educate Zheng Rui with great painstaking words.
When we first met, I may be excited, but there are still some things to say, children, we must educate, otherwise what should I do next time something happens?
Zheng Rui's eyes suddenly turned red:
"I miss you too, Grandma, but I'm afraid you hate me and don't like me anymore...... I'm so disobedient...... Woohoo......"
Seeing that Zheng Rui began to cry, Dean Wang hurriedly hugged her in his arms:
"Where there is, come back is a good child, come back is a good child." Sure enough, tears are the most powerful weapon, no, Dean Wang doesn't dare to say cruel words.
Wang Xiaoting looked at Dean Wang and said:
"Dean Wang, ...... at the police station" Zheng Rui has been away for almost half a month, and Dean Wang must have called the police a long time ago.
Dean Wang naturally knew what Wang Xiaoting was going to say, so she nodded and said:
"I'll call them when I get back."
Wang Xiaoting smiled and said:
"That's fine."
Zhao Xuan and Wang Xiaoting had eaten before they came, and it was around two o'clock in the afternoon at the moment, although it was noon, but it might be a beautiful day, and it was not very hot.
After staying in the office for a while, Dean Wang proposed to take Zhao Xuan and Wang Xiaoting for a walk here, and Zhao Xuan and Wang Xiaoting naturally readily agreed.
When Dean Wang really took Zhao Xuan and them to walk in the orphanage, Zhao Xuan realized that this orphanage was far more than the three-story building he saw when he first walked in.
On one side of the burned house, there is a dilapidated shed in the middle, and there is a small yard behind the shed, in which there are tall banyan trees, green shade, and under the trees are all kinds of fitness equipment, although it is slightly dilapidated, but it exudes an old fragrance.
"Dean Wang, before the fire, this place must be very beautiful."
"Of course, it's pretty." Dean Wang pointed to the rows of swings and said, "The children like to play here the most, and now is the time for reading and class, so they are still in the classroom." β
"Classroom?"
"Come, I'll show you."
There is a path on the side of the courtyard, and when Zhao Xuan and Wang Xiaoting walked into the bungalow, through the window, they saw children in groups of three or five, sitting in the classroom reading books.
The classroom was quite quiet, and the children were reading very seriously, which not only touched Wang Xiaoting, but also touched Zhao Xuan.
Originally, Zhao Xuan was afraid that after Zheng Rui came back, the children would bully her again, but now it seems that as long as she thinks of a little way, there shouldn't be any big problems.
Zhao Xuan turned around and said to Dean Wang:
"Dean, I want to ask about the problem that Rui Rui is often bullied here, what do you think?"
As soon as these words fell, Zheng Rui immediately threw herself into Zhao Xuan's arms, seemingly a little nervous and a little scared.
Zhao Xuan stretched out his hand and stroked Zheng Rui's little head to calm her down.
Dean Wang looked at Zheng Rui and said softly:
"Ruirui, why do they bully you usually? Tell your grandmother about it...... Grandma helps you out. β
Zheng Rui looked at Dean Wang with some fear, and said softly: "Grandma, they ignore me, I don't know why, ...... that day" She whispered the reason why she ran away from home, and her expression was very pitiful.
"Just because of a relatively large steamed bun?"
Zheng Rui nodded and said:
"They took it and left, I was hungry, so I ......"
When Dean Wang heard this, he closed his eyes slightly, and at this moment, her figure seemed a little desolate.
