Chapter 17: Encounter Xue Wei
Zhou Ying noticed the strange eyes of her old classmates, and hurriedly confessed: "Weiwei, don't misunderstand. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoI'm not pulling you to sponsor it. However, I would like to make it clear that our unit is under the direct leadership of the Civil Affairs Bureau, and all expenses are based on the generosity of all sectors of society and the support of the state. Therefore, all donations can be directly used for those who are poor and unfortunate. ”
Liu Wei immediately smiled: "Ah Ying, don't be careful." I have complete trust in you. ”
Zhou Ying thought for a moment, and then suggested: "Or, when we finish eating at my mother's house, I'll take you to our welfare home to have a look?" ”
"You're going to take me on a tour of your unit?"
"It's not. I want to take you to the orphanage below, where there are a lot of abandoned children. ”
When Liu Wei heard this, her heart was immediately surging, and she readily agreed to Zhou Ying's request.
In the afternoon of the same day, Liu Wei said goodbye to Zhou Ying's mother's house and carried Zhou Ying straight to the orphanage-
Zhou Ying sat in the passenger seat, pointed out the path to Liu Wei, and introduced: "The children there are generally abandoned by their parents, and they all have some disabilities, which is a scar that cannot be hidden in their young hearts. Although they are not very old, they have a precocious maturity that does not correspond to their age. If you want them to take off their guard, then you must throw away the so-called sympathetic gaze, look at them with the eyes of normal children, and do not ask them about their former parents and family, and do not ask them how their current life is. Because all of this is undoubtedly a reminder of the fact that they are orphans, and you may be kind, but for the children, this is not what they want to remember..."
"That's it!" Liu Wei immediately interrupted, "I have seen orphans and know how to face them. Don't be verbose. ”
"Oh, it turns out that you have already done charity in Qi'an."
Liu Wei shook her head with guilt on her face and denied: "No." It was only by chance that I met and interacted with an orphan with polio. Unfortunately, I was in the climbing stage of entrepreneurship at the time, and I didn't do anything for him because of financial constraints. Alas, it was only now that I suddenly realized that although my career was successful, many things had also passed. ”
Zhou Ying's heart moved, thinking of her condition, and her eyes couldn't help but moisten.
Liu Wei's BMW car quickly stopped in front of the gate marked 'Qingtong Orphanage'. Accompanied by Zhou Ying, she stepped out of the car and walked into the courtyard gate.
"Dean Zhou is here? Come in! ”
When the leader walked in with the outsiders, he hurriedly stepped forward to compliment.
Liu Wei carefully looked at the situation in the courtyard and found that the environment here was quiet. In the newly built building, the yard is relatively clean.
Zhou Ying pointed to the brand-new building with her hand and introduced to Liu Wei: "This building was built with donations from all walks of life. Now these children can finally live in a more comfortable environment. ”
Liu Wei nodded, and accompanied by Zhou Ying, walked into the new building.
Zhou Ying accompanied her to visit the rooms, and introduced: "There are dormitories for orphans in this building, as well as activity rooms and classrooms for orphans. At present, there are 56 orphans in the hospital, the oldest of whom is almost 20 years old, and the youngest is only 5 months old. Most of these children were cruelly abandoned by their parents because of physical problems. Some children have cleft lip, some have cerebral palsy, some have cleft palate, some have paralysis...
The first orphan Liu Wei came into contact with was a male orphan with a cleft palate who was less than a year old, and he was nursing and wearing clothes at that time. Liu Wei couldn't help but tease him, but he smiled innocently at her. After the nursing aunt changed his clothes, she put him in a small cart and took him out of the dormitory.
Liu Wei looked at the child's back, and couldn't help but feel sour, it was not a taste.
Zhou Ying pushed her, who was already stunned: "Weiwei, it's time for class." Shall I take you to see the classroom where the children learn knowledge? ”
Liu Wei nodded suddenly: "Okay." ”
After Liu Wei and the others thoroughly experienced the entire orphanage, they immediately signed a donation agreement with Zhou Ying.
In the new building, after a circle from bottom to top, she was a little tired, and when she signed the donation agreement, she rested in the reception room accompanied by Zhou Ying.
When she had just chatted with Zhou Ying, a staff member suddenly came to find Zhou Ying.
Zhou Ying had no choice but to smile apologetically at her: "Weiwei, you drink some water first, and I'll be back immediately." ”
Liu Wei understood the responsibility of the old classmate as the head of the first college, so she smiled understandingly: "You go." I'll just stay by myself. ”
Before leaving, Zhou Ying found that Liu Wei's desk was empty, so she said apologetically: "I'll send someone to bring water over immediately." ”
When Zhou Ying left, Liu Wei recalled what she had seen and heard in the orphanage and her generosity, and couldn't help but feel a little comforted when she thought that she could help those poor children do something when she only had half of her life left.
She couldn't help but think that she was like a candle that was about to burn out, and at the last moment, it would also emit the last ray of light, which corresponded to Li Shangyin's poem - the spring silkworm is dead to the end, and the candle turns to ashes and tears begin to dry.
"Sister, please drink water."
Just as she was in her reverie, there was suddenly another girl beside her, who was carrying a kettle and pouring hot water into an empty cup in front of her.
It was only then that she noticed the girl who came in suddenly, and her eyes lit up.
I saw that the girl looked about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a slender body, big eyes, skin like snow, and a dark cloud of hair on the back of her head. Look at her temperament again, her graceful demeanor and extremely beautiful appearance. However, her face was slightly sad, her eyebrows frowned slightly, although she took care of Liu Wei to drink water, she was a little absent-minded, and her bright big eyes flashed with tears.
Liu Wei suddenly fell in love with this girl, and couldn't help but be surprised, she didn't expect that there was such a beautiful girl here, but I don't know what she was thinking?
"Thank you. Is Little Sister a staff member here? ”
Liu Wei stretched out her hand to take the water cup handed over by the girl, thanked her and asked questions.
The girl replied softly, "I grew up here, but I'm not a staff member, just a volunteer." ”
"You grew up here..." Liu Wei was surprised: "Are you also an orphan?" ”
As soon as Liu Wei said this, she suddenly thought of Zhou Ying's advice, and her pretty face suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment.
The big-eyed girl looked calm: "Yes." Shortly after I was born, I was abandoned by my biological parents. ”
Liu Wei felt incredible, and couldn't help holding the girl's little hand, looking her up and down from time to time.
She had just visited a lot of orphans, and she had the impression that all of the children who had not been adopted were physically or mentally disabled. But she couldn't see anything wrong with the girl in front of her. When she was a baby, she could be abandoned by her parents, but when she grew up to be beautiful, wouldn't anyone want to adopt her? If I had met her in advance, even if I had a son, I would have adopted this beauty. Are childless couples blind?
The girl saw Liu Wei's puzzlement, so she immediately smiled gloomily: "You can't see my problem." In fact, like those younger siblings, I was abandoned by my biological parents because of my physical defects. Therefore, they will not be adopted, and can only grow up in an orphanage. ”
Liu Wei's eyes widened suddenly: "Girl, what's wrong with you?" ”
The girl put her hand on her already towering chest: "My problem is here. ”
"What's going on there?"
"I was born with a malformed heart."
"Oh, does that have an impact on your life?"
"Absolutely. I'm actually a person who can die at any time. Who would dare to adopt me? ”
Liu Wei was still incredulous: "But I feel that you are as healthy as a normal girl." ”
The girl smiled wryly: "You can't look at the appearance. I might be one of those girls, right? ”
Liu Wei looked at this beautiful girl carefully, and finally felt that her face was a little pale, and there was a black line in the circles under her eyes, so she had to believe it.
When she saw that the girl was very comfortable with her life and death, she asked reassuringly, "Then how long does the doctor say you can live?" ”
"I'm going to die at any moment."
"Ahhh That's what the doctor said? ”
"The doctor was talking more seriously before. Back when I was very young, I asserted that my heart only had ten years to live. But I've lived to be 20 years old this year, and I've already exceeded their expectations. So, my heart stops beating. ”
Liu Wei looked at the girl's sad expression, and suddenly thought that she would not be able to do it soon, and suddenly felt sympathy, and couldn't help asking: "I see that your little sister has something on her mind, is it because her life will not live long?" ”
She thought of what the old revolutionary had taught her, and she wanted to do the girl's work.
Unexpectedly, the girl shook her head gently: "I have already taken my life and death lightly, and the sadness just now is that I can't continue to work on my dreams in my lifetime." ”
"Your dreams... What are your dreams? ”
"My dream is to continue reading and learn more about the world."
"Oh, you've read?"
"Well, I've graduated from high school now, but unfortunately I can't go to college."
Liu Wei quickly explained: "Many children like you are eager to go to college now. However, the threshold for going to university is very high, and excellent academic performance is required. ”
"Eldest sister, my college entrance examination score is the first in Qingtong's new high school students."
Liu Wei was suddenly dumbfounded: "Ah... You have also taken the college entrance examination, and you are also the top student in the city's college entrance examination? ”
The girl nodded tearfully: "My college entrance examination results have just been released for less than half a month. It's a pity that no colleges and universities have admitted me... It's all because I'm a dying person... And... The welfare institute can't come up with that much money for me... I had to volunteer here for the rest of my life... It's a reward... The grace of nurturing..."
Liu Wei's heart was sour, and tears couldn't help but burst out of her eyes-
However, she thought of Zhou Ying's advice again, she could not face these orphans with sympathy and pity, even though this girl had become a special orphan.
She quickly wiped away her tears and pretended to smile: "Little sister, don't be sad." In fact, it's okay to go to university, it's better to participate in social practice and do your part. ”
"However, my wish is to learn more... Since you've been here once... You must see the world clearly. ”
The girl's words suddenly reminded Liu Wei of the most popular song "Seeing Flowers in the Fog"
Those lyrics flashed in her mind, and her heart seemed to resonate with this girl - looking at flowers in the fog, looking at the moon in the water, can you tell the unpredictable world? Take away the clouds, the flowers bloom, can you grasp this swaying and colorful season? Trouble is ruthless, smile and smile, is that affection? Wen Cun is not necessarily considerate, do you know which sentence is true, which sentence is false, which sentence is love condensation? Lend me a pair of discerning eyes, so that I can see this distraction clearly...
Liu Wei couldn't help but pull the girl to sit down beside her, and combed her black waterfall-like hair with her slender fingers, and smiled kindly: "Girl, what's your name?" ”
"Xuewei!"
Liu Wei said curiously: "Your name is Xue Wei?" ”
"Well, you can call me Vivi."
Liu Wei suddenly burst into tears, but she didn't expect that the fate of the girl next to her was not only the same as herself, she would usher in death at any time, but also had the same name. How could this not make her feel sorry for this girl?
