Chapter 118: The Orphanage

Shi Bin is a person who likes to go off the rails with a sword, and he has such a crooked tendon. Once upon a time, in order to study psychology, he went to the psychological counseling room to pretend to be a depressed patient. As a result, because of too many words, he showed his feet and was coaxed out by the teacher. Although the teacher saw that he still really wanted to learn and pointed out a few good books to get started, he told him not to enter that door again.

Now that he is a father, he wants to be a maverick even more, saying that he is different from ordinary fathers. So for the first few days, I was with her and the child in Jia Ling's delivery room almost every day.

Jia Ling gave birth to a child and was in confinement, although she was tired but full of energy, she couldn't do without the child in three sentences all day long. This made Shi Bin feel a sense of warmth, thinking of his mother, who was full of gray hair and wrinkles because of her worries, all of which were imprinted on her by her love for her son.

"Xiaoling, you just finished giving birth, your body is too weak, rest more. The child was handed over to Xiaoqin to bring. At this time, Jia Ling is very fragile, she can only come along, she must be happy, Shi Bin tried to say.

As a first-time mother, she doesn't care about these, and her focus is to tease her children. This kind of feeling Shi Bin will not have, he also feels happy, but he is not like Jia Ling, which makes him further feel the greatness of maternal love.

However, Shi Bin can't stay in the delivery room all the time to be her King Kong guard by Jia Ling's side, he also has a bunch of things to do, although he is reluctant to leave his wife who has just given birth and the child who has just been born, but he still has to leave, although he is very reluctant.

With difficulty, he returned to the study where he had to stay for at least four hours every day, looking at the official document in front of him, but he felt that what he saw was the beautiful Jia Ling and the lovely Lang Lang. It seems that this is hysteria, Shi Bin muttered to himself. After resting for a while, he opened the official document again, but unfortunately he still didn't have the heart to read it carefully, and looked at Jia Ling's boudoir with his eyes.

How good is that? Shi Bin couldn't help but get anxious, how could he think about his wife and children while doing it? There are still a bunch of official duties to deal with, and the more serious problem is that psychological suggestion is very scary, and the more you try to forget it, the more you can't forget the result.

Of course, it is not a big deal to slack off for a few days, but this kind of non-compliance makes Shi Bin very unhappy. What he likes is to either have a good time or be tired, so that he can't take care of either of the two ends, which makes him feel frustrated.

In fact, this is just a matter of concern, and Shi Bin understands it very well. But he didn't expect that he would be so messy, and he couldn't work normally for three days in a row. And the brothers didn't look at him like a big brother these days, but like a child who didn't know what to do, and there was a bit of ridicule in his eyes.

However, at this time, Shi Bin didn't have the heart to quarrel with them, and his mind was full of Jia Ling and children. Fortunately, he is still a simple person, and from the fourth day onwards, he simply did not enter the study, and changed to the way of work in his previous life - "shopping office".

To put it bluntly, it is to take out the official documents to be processed and go to the house while walking, so that it is easier to keep a clear head when the cold wind blows, and what he needs most at this time is to be clear-headed.

Although walking on the street is still very messy, at least the eyes of the people are no longer so dull, and they are still a little lively, and a few dog barks from time to time also make people feel a little angry. What pleased him the most was not the tea stall owner boasting about how much money he had made today, nor the peasant women gossiping together, but a noisy dispute.

Looking up, there was a woman who was as fat as a pig and was obviously from the city, and a woman who was as thin as a monkey and was obviously from the countryside was doing business.

"Three handfuls of cabbage on a copper plate, okay?" The city woman asked.

As if seeing a hungry wolf who eats people and does not spit out bones, the village woman immediately shouted: "Your heart is too dark, my family has not been able to grow these fine vegetables with great difficulty, and I am reluctant to eat them. ”

The peasant woman's attitude must have been expected a long time ago, and the city woman turned around and walked away, but her steps were noticeably lighter, and the peasant woman did not open her mouth to keep her, but only greeted the people who came and went.

After a few turns, the city woman returned to the peasant woman's vegetable stall. The city woman was obviously tired, and the peasant woman's stall only sold a handful of vegetables, perhaps because she felt that it was too worthless for these two copper plates to be bucketed for so long, and finally made a deal at the price of two copper plates to buy four handfuls of cabbage.

This kind of dispute is petty, of course, but what arises around it is rare.

In such a troubled era, few families can afford to eat fine vegetables, most of them dig wild vegetables in the fields, but this city woman who can only be regarded as middle-class dares to buy fine vegetables to eat, which shows that her family has some strength and dares to enjoy it. And the peasant woman dared to grow fine vegetables, which also shows that she is not afraid that no one will buy the vegetables she grows, and she will not end up in vain. So this situation makes Shi Bin feel very accomplished, he can't care about other places, but at least his Xiangtan can not starve all over the wilderness.

Although he was actually just shopping, even if he didn't read the official document in his hand, he still thought that he was not having fun, but he still observed the situation in the city to some extent, and how much he could accumulate for specific things in the future, so that he could come up with an effective solution to the problem as soon as possible.

After walking for about a quarter of an hour, his new father saw something he didn't want to see: some children picking up rotten leaves from other neighbors' houses. He knew that these things were inevitable, and it would be a great blessing for them not to starve to death, where could they still want to eat well? Today's world is not the era of the only child, everything is the child first.

Before the emotion was over, I saw two children not far away fighting for a few rotten vegetable leaves, and a timid child in the distance didn't even have the courage to step forward and fight.

With a wave of his hand, Xu Feng, the head of the guard, came forward and asked, "What is this?。。。。。。。 ”

Knowing that his adult was a hunter and basically didn't understand life in the slums in the city, he had to explain with a wry smile: "Adult, it's normal for children to fight, don't care." We were fighting a lot about it. ”

Don't care? And more? Shi Bin only remembered the fight because of toys and quarrels, and the first time he saw a fight because of a rotten vegetable leaf.

Xu Feng estimated that Shi Bin still didn't understand, so he directly told him that this was because the wild vegetables were bitter and astringent, and the fine vegetables were sweet and sweet, and everyone wanted to eat more. Adults don't have time to fight, so it's up to the little kid to do it.

This time, Shi Bin understood it completely, and was about to turn his back and leave, when he suddenly saw the expectant look in the eyes of the child in the distance, he seemed to want to fight but didn't dare to do it. This kind of performance made him even more curious, if he wanted to eat and grab it, why bother watching and waiting for someone to give alms? What's more, it's not a valuable thing, and it won't be okay if you rob it.

So he pointed to the child who had been a spectator again, expressing his doubts.

Xu Feng saw that Shi Bin noticed the child, he immediately became excited, and said: "My lord, it's an orphan, it's useless to rob it, no one makes it for him to eat, and he will be bullied by the rest of the children, so it's the most appropriate to watch from the sidelines." ”

"Orphan", the word reminded him of the negative words pitiful, thin, weak, and powerless, and this one in front of him fully expressed it, maybe not that they didn't want to fight, but they couldn't fight, and no one supported them. Children are always the most pitiful, especially such helpless orphans.

Sitting on the road pier on the side, Shi Bin thought about Lang Lang at home and the little orphan in front of him. The sky that was still cloudless just now seemed to be gloomy at this time, and Shi Bin lost his interest in shopping for office, knowing that it was not a way to bring the little orphan back to the county government like this, and he had to set up a rule to protect it.

Shi Bin, who returned to the mansion, had no desire to see Jia Ling and the child again, and now his mind was full of the figure of the emaciated, cowardly, and silent orphan.

He wanted to set aside a fund to build an orphanage and save innocent children. But this must be just a beautiful dream, now adults can't support it, how to save children? Moreover, the money in his hands was either public money or earned with the help of the brothers, and it was not something that could be spent on his private account at will, and he was immediately deflated at the thought of this.

But now he is also much more cunning, and he is ready to try to retreat. It can be regarded as his hard work for these children, as for whether he succeeds or not, he can only do his best and obey the destiny of God.

Among his brothers, Zhao Gang is the most irrational and kind-hearted, and Wang San is the most rational and hard-hearted, so he decided to find Zhao Gang's support, as for Wang San, he will hide it, and the rest will take a look; Both wives are very kind, Jia Ling may have slightly opposed him building an orphanage before, thinking that he is not strong enough, but now that he has become a mother, he will definitely support it.

So he entered Jia Ling's delivery room again, but this time he changed his crying face, and even he admired his face-changing skills.

In recent days, Shi Bin's face has been full of red light, but today it is like a mourning exam, which makes Jia Ling, a new mother, puzzled, so she asked: "Husband, we should be happy to have a child, why are you crying with a sad face?" Do you want to make me angry? ”

Shi Bin deliberately "squeezed out" a smile and said fakely: "Of course not, I'm very happy, very happy." ”

originally thought that this was a shrewd and intelligent Jia Ling, but he forgot that women are the most mentally retarded when they have mood swings, and now that he is a mother, he is the time when his intelligence is the lowest, so he only saw that Shi Bin was pretending, and he clearly had something to hide from her, but he ignored it anymore.

Seeing that Jia Ling, a small fish, didn't bite the hook tightly this time, Shi Bin didn't pull the fishing rod immediately, but shook it, saying that it was indeed just some trivial things, not serious, just a little troublesome. and apologized, saying that he shouldn't let Jia Ling, who had just become a mother, see this.

With these words, Jia Ling became sensitive again, and was convinced of her own judgment, saying that Shi Bin didn't love her too much, and he still hid something from her. Seeing that the fish had already bitten the hook, Shi Bin of course put away the rod and said: "I always thought about you and the children in the study in the afternoon, but I couldn't work normally and went out for a walk, but I was so depressed when I saw some things。。。。。 ”

People's curiosity is that the closer they get to the answer, the stronger it becomes, and now Jia Ling is about to hear the answer, but Shi Bin pauses again, just shaking his head vigorously, which makes Jia Ling a little irritable. I couldn't help but slap him hard, urging him to hurry up and tell the reason.

Since it was Jia Ling who took the initiative to ask, naturally Shi Bin took the initiative and immediately said: "It's an orphan, I see that he is pitiful and wants to help him, but I don't want to help him, so 。。。。。。。 ”

As Shi Bin expected, as soon as Jia Ling heard this, she immediately said that she must build an orphanage. It is said that it is to accumulate virtue for his children, so that there will be someone to help and support him wherever he comes. Although he doesn't know what to do, he knows that "many friends and many paths", and it seems that building this orphanage will not only untie his own knots, but also leave some firm supporters for his children.

As soon as the husband and wife communicated like this, they immediately reached a consensus and said that they must get this thing done.

Everything went according to plan, and it was another morning meeting, and Shi Bin came to repeat his old tricks, pretending to be drooping and gloomy.

Zhao Gang, who had no scheming, was the first to ask why, but in order to play the play more seriously, Shi Bin still pushed it twice and said that he would not care about these details first. Because Shi Bin has always been weak and sluggish, everyone present is very uncomfortable, and finally expressed their hope to know what makes Shi Bin so depressed.

When the time came, he told the reason and his thoughts. Zhao Gang was the first to express support; Except for Wang San and Liu Xiancheng, they did not express their position, and the rest only hesitated for a while before supporting it; Seeing that the matter had been decided, Wang San and Liu Xiancheng didn't want to be evildoers, so they finally agreed.

However, Wang San still put forward a condition: it cannot be embezzled in the collective private funds. Although it was a little regrettable, knowing that it was already Wang San's bottom line to let him allocate from public funds, Shi Bin didn't say anything more and only nodded in agreement.

Just about to end the meeting, he heard Yi Jun say: "My lord, why should we be so troublesome, now there are refugees everywhere, and there are mostly village women among these refugees." It's not a good thing to let them eat white rice, so let's let those village women take care of these orphans, and let these people have a meal every day. ”

Before Shi Bin could express his position, Li Chao said again: "What Brother Yi Jun said is reasonable, in fact, those children can also do things, mobilize them to help with things such as herding cattle and chopping wood, and those village women are responsible for taking care of them and don't lose them." Let's take it one step at a time, and let's say there's a lot of things for them to do, but we haven't found out. ”

According to what the two of them said, Shi Bin knew that things could be so simple, just make a booklet, make a registration, and exchange labor for food.
