Chapter 358: Visitation
Shi Sheng's backpack was heavier, but fortunately, there was an elevator in the corridor, so she didn't have to carry it herself.
The road in the morning is still relatively busy, are some people who go to work, everyone's face has a busy look, the beginning of a new day, the work is heavy, in the big city, Shi Sheng deeply felt his insignificance in this world, Fengcheng is a big city, fast-paced and fast-paced life, which brings a lot of pressure to everyone.
Only those children who are still in school, under the protection of their parents' wings, have not seen the difficulties of life and the reality of society, and the smile on their faces without worries, maybe only they deserve it.
Looking at the people whose parents went to send their children to school, Shi Sheng's heart couldn't help but feel a wave of envy. What does it feel like to be pampered? Shi Sheng didn't know, and he never dared to look forward to it.
An unknown person like her is already very lucky to survive.
Looking at so many things in his hand, Shi Sheng decided that he might as well take a taxi.
Waiting on the side of the road, looking at the vehicles coming and going, she found that there were very few empty cars in the morning, and finally waited for more than ten minutes before a free taxi came slowly and leisurely from the other side of the road, Shi Sheng hurriedly raised his hand and stopped the taxi.
"Master, where do I put these things?" After the taxi stopped, he opened the window, Shi Sheng looked at the taxi, raised his hand and pointed to the things he was holding in his hand.
"Put it in the trunk, I've opened it for you." The taxi looked at the large bag of clothes she was holding and was silent for a moment, then spoke.
Shi Sheng carried the clothes by himself and struggled to put them all in the back of the trunk.
"Girl, where are you going?" After Shi Sheng got into the car, the taxi driver looked at Shi Sheng in the rearview mirror and asked.
"Go to the orphanage." Shi Sheng forgot which road the orphanage was, but Fengcheng was such an orphanage, or outside the suburbs of Fengcheng, and it was impossible for the driver not to know.
The traffic on the road is relatively congested, and when Shi Sheng passed through the inner ring of the city, he was stuck in traffic for more than half an hour before reaching the outer ring.
"Girl, it's here."
It was almost time to eat at noon, and the taxi driver arrived at his destination with Shi Sheng.
Because there was a relatively rough road in front of it, the car basically couldn't drive in, so when the rough car came out, Shi Sheng was put at the intersection.
After settling the account for the taxi driver, Shi Sheng walked to the door of the orphanage with his bag.
Although the road was very uneven, looking at the familiar road ahead, Shi Sheng's heart swelled with a familiar feeling.
I don't know how many times I walked on this road when I was a child, looking at everything familiar on the side of the road, it was a familiar wall, and the smell of dirt...... Although I haven't been back for so long, after so many years, many things still haven't changed.
I don't know why, Shi Sheng always has a nostalgic feeling in his heart.
There are many creepers on the brick wall, climbing from the top of the wall to the corner of the wall, although it is almost winter, but the leaves are still that deep green, I remember when I was a child, this place was full of rows of creepers.
Shi Sheng looked up and saw that the gate of the orphanage was in front of him.
It's finally almost there...... Shi Sheng took a deep breath, lifted the big bag in his hand vigorously, and then quickened the pace of his feet.
When I arrived at the gate of the orphanage, there were several children running around in the courtyard, and it seemed that it was not yet time to eat.
A few sharp-eyed children saw Shi Sheng who had just walked in from the door at a glance.
"Sister Asheng is back! Sister Ah Sheng is back...... ”
The children who were playing outside hurriedly ran to Shi Sheng's side and greeted Shi Sheng, and a few children ran to the dean's office and called the dean out.
"Sister Asheng, why didn't you come back to see us like this?" A little girl tugged on Shi Sheng's sleeve, blinked and asked Shi Sheng with big eyes, looking at her sincere appearance, Shi Sheng's heart became even more guilty, in previous years, he would often come back to see them, but there were too many things that happened recently, so Shi Sheng forgot about coming back.
"Haven't I already returned? Look, the new clothes I brought you are like Christmas presents. Shi Sheng shook the new clothes he was carrying in his hand and said to them with a smile.
Every time Shi Sheng came back, he would bring back something, so the children were very much looking forward to Shi Sheng's arrival, looking at the innocent smiling faces of the children, Shi Sheng instantly felt that those messy things had disappeared.
"What were you guys just playing?" Shi Sheng squatted down with a smile, looked at the children beside him and asked.
"We're playing with the flower rope, Sister Asheng, do you want to play with us?" The children lifted the red rope that hung from their hands, and then shook it in front of Shi Sheng.
"It's okay, you guys play first, I'll talk to the dean about something, good."
Shi Sheng just wanted to promise the children, but suddenly saw the dean come out of the room, she gently rubbed the head of the little girl in front of her, and then stood up from the ground.
"The kids...... Hurry up and wash your hands and get ready for dinner for a while. The dean clapped his hands in the courtyard, and then beckoned the children to eat, and as soon as the children heard the news of the meal, they all dispersed in a hurry, leaving Shi Sheng in place, and she walked towards the dean.
"Ah Sheng, why did you come back?"
When the dean saw Shi Sheng, a look of surprise crossed his eyes, but he only flickered by, patted Shi Sheng's shoulder gently, and pretended to be a little angry.
"I'm sorry, Dean, I wasn't busy with work, so I didn't have time to come back. Okay, okay, aren't I coming back? You see, this is what I brought back to the kids. ”
Shi Sheng knew that the dean would definitely blame himself, so he hurriedly raised the big bag he was holding in his hand in front of the dean, and then looked at the dean and replied.
The dean glanced at the bag, and knew at a glance that Shi Sheng had brought something back:
"I said it, you don't have to bring things back, we don't lack things here, there are many well-wishers from all walks of life, and the children are doing well."
The dean looked at Shi Sheng and comforted, she knew that Shi Sheng was alone with Xixi, a child, which was equivalent to a single mother, and her life was not very easy, and she always brought so many things to the orphanage every time.
"It's okay Dean, I haven't been back for so long, I should bring something."
Shi Sheng took a deep breath, this is a place where he was raised, if he didn't have this, he would be nothing, so no matter how many things he sent, it was not much.
After greeting the dean, Shi Sheng noticed that the dean seemed to be constantly looking behind him, as if he was looking forward to someone's arrival.
Looking at the expression on the dean's face, Shi Sheng only felt a little strange: "Dean, what are you looking for?" Shi Sheng turned his head and glanced behind him, there was no one, and asked a little inexplicably.
"I didn't ...... It's nothing. The dean shook his head, "Let's go into the room." Then he pulled Shi Sheng and walked in the direction of his office.
When he walked to the door of the office, the dean suddenly came to Shi Sheng's front again, looked at Shi Sheng and asked:
"I finally came back once, why didn't you bring Xiao Gu with you?"
Hearing the question asked by the dean, Shi Sheng was stunned, and she knew that the dean must have wanted to say something to herself just now.
"Ah...... He's been very busy lately, and he doesn't have time to come, so I didn't call him. ”
Shi Sheng paused for a moment, and then replied prevaricatingly, she couldn't tell the dean that she had no contact with Gu Yueqing, after all, in the early years, it was always Gu Yueqing who came back with Shi Sheng every time, and the dean thought that the two of them were together and not separated.
"Busy? Alas, yes, you have all grown up, and you are no longer the children you used to be, you all have families, and you should fight hard. The dean sighed, as if she was lamenting the years, she didn't doubt what Shi Sheng said just now.
"Ah...... Good, good. Shi Sheng nodded, and finally diverted the topic, which made Shi Sheng breathe a sigh of relief.
Shi Sheng stayed in the orphanage for a long time, had a meal at noon, and after chatting with the director about life in the afternoon, he was ready to go home.
"You're leaving now, huh?"
The dean stood at the door and looked at Shi Sheng, who was packing up his things, and said.
"Well, Hei Hei will be home from school in a while, and I promised him to take him to the amusement park tonight." Shi Sheng nodded, she promised Xixi that she would never break her promise.
"Okay, you didn't bring Xi Xi this time, then don't forget to bring him over next time, I haven't seen him for a long time, by the way, and Xiao Gu's stinky boy, I want to see how he is."
The dean reluctantly told Shi Sheng these words, Shi Sheng is the girl she has seen since she was a child, the relationship between the two is like a mother-daughter relationship born at the same time, Shi Sheng treats her as his own relatives, the dean is very kind to everyone, Shi Sheng feels that he should do these things by himself.
"Well, okay, I see, I'll bring Xixi over next time I come." Shi Sheng nodded seriously, but ignored what the dean said just now that she wanted to bring Gu Yueqing with her, she couldn't agree to the dean, after all, she might not be able to do it.
