The journey was uneventful, and Shu Yu and his party arrived at their destination this time, the abandoned baby home.

The house of the abandoned baby home is not big, only this yard in the wilderness, it looks quite new, it should have just been built, and before approaching the yard, I heard the noise inside, all of which were the sound of children's frolic.

Shu Yu also smiled when she heard the frolicking voices of these children, the reason why she wanted to come to this abandoned baby home was to do her part to let these poor children get more warmth.

Xia Zhu stepped forward and patted the door, the door was opened by an old woman, the old woman knew Xia Zhu, and she was also a maid in the Shizifu, Xia Zhu rarely came to the abandoned baby home, the old woman was inevitably strange, and asked:

"Girl, why are you here?"

Xia Zhu gave way, pointed to Shu Yu and Nangong Mo behind him and said:

"These two are the guests of our Shizi Mansion, Miss Shu Yu and Young Master Nangong, it is this Miss Shu Yu who wants to come to the abandoned baby home to see if she can help her.

When the old woman heard that she was a guest of the Shizi Mansion, she hurriedly bowed, bowed down and invited Shu Yu and Nangong Mo to enter the door, Shu Yu nodded to the old woman, and followed into the abandoned baby home.

The abandoned baby home is not big, just a yard and a few rooms, a group of children are playing in the yard, and the adults in the yard are not only this old woman but also his wife, who is about the same age as the old woman.

When the old man saw that the old woman had brought a group of people in, he thought that he was coming to adopt the abandoned baby, so he hurriedly came over to entertain him, bowed to Shu Yu and the others and said:

"The girl is here to adopt an abandoned baby, which one do you want, you just say, the old man will arrange it for you."

The old woman saw that her wife had misunderstood, so she hurriedly stopped her and said:

"Old man, misunderstanding! The person who came was a guest of the Shizi Mansion, and he came to take a look, not an adopted child. ”

When the old man heard that it was the Shizifu, he quickly bowed down and gave a salute again, and apologized in his mouth:

"The old man is rude, the girl please."

Shu Yu smiled and said:

"Ah uncle, excuse me, I'm just coming over to see if there's a place to help, I don't know how many children there are in our abandoned nursery now."

The old woman followed behind Shu Yu, heard Shu Yu ask, and replied:

"There are about a dozen children of three or four years old, and there are also one or two dozen of those who have just been born, and there are seven or eight who suffer from physical diseases."

Shu Yu felt strange why there were only three or four years old and newborn babies, and asked puzzledly:

"And what about the one- and two-year-old babies?"

The old woman replied:

"Back to the girl, one- and two-year-old babies are easy to feed, and they are not sensible, they have all been adopted, these three or four-year-old babies and babies with physical diseases have no one to want, so they can only stay here."

Shu Yu nodded thoughtfully, and saw that there were no other adults in the courtyard except for a few children playing by themselves, so he asked curiously:

"Auntie, is it just the two of you here? Why don't you see other nurseries. ”

"The abandoned baby home has nothing else to do except take care of the baby, and it is enough for me and my wife."

"Auntie has worked hard, so many children are only taken care of by the two of you."

Shu Yu really feels sorry for the old woman, the two old people have to take care of a group of children, and the hardships are only known to the two old people.

The old woman replied with a smile:

"It's not hard, it's also the kindness of the son, knowing that the old man and the old man have no children under their knees, they like these babies very much, and they built this abandoned baby home for our husband and wife to take care of these babies, which can be regarded as satisfying the wishes of the old body!"

Shu Yu asked:

"It's just the two of you, are you busy?"

"I can't be busy, but with the help of these older children, I can barely cope with it, and every month Song Bo will bring someone to pick up some babies, and it will be easier at that time."

Shu Yu heard that several children would be picked up every month, and felt strange, and asked suspiciously:

"Uncle Song brought someone over to pick up the child? Didn't ordinary people come and take it away? ”

"The old body doesn't know, every time the child is taken away, it is Song Bo who brings people over, and every time several people take it away, the rest is left in the abandoned baby home, Song Bo also confessed, without his permission, no one is allowed to take the child away. Unless they pick the rest. ”

The old man also explained:

"Every month almost at this time, Song Bo will bring someone over, count the days, these two days Song Bo should bring someone to choose the child, just now I saw the girl, I thought that Song Bo sent to adopt the child, so I asked.

Shu Yu nodded, there is no doubt about him, since it is the child that Song Bo brought someone to adopt, there should be nothing wrong, and then asked:

"So that's the case, who is responsible for the education of these children left in the abandoned baby home."

Shu Yu saw that those children were already three or four years old, and if they reached the age of kindergarten in modern times, they would also begin to learn some simple words.

The old woman was confused, and didn't understand what Shu Yu meant by education, so she asked suspiciously:

"The old body doesn't know where the girl's education is directing, these babies are still young, and the etiquette cannot be taught, and they can only be taught when they are two or three years older."

Shu Yu knew that the old woman had misunderstood, and explained:

"I mean, whoever teaches them to read and hyphenate is not teaching them doctrine or anything."

The old woman suddenly realized what Shu Yu wanted to express, and replied:

"This world has not explained, the old body and the old man are illiterate, I don't know where to teach, besides, the yard is full of girls, no need to read and write, and when they grow up, they can be sent to the house to be a maid."

When Shu Yu heard the old woman's words, she decided the second half of these children's lives, and suddenly became anxious and said:

"How can we do it, although they are abandoned babies, but they also have the freedom to choose their lives, how can we deprive them of their rights, we should let them receive education, and they will choose their own lives in the future."

The old woman was stunned by what Shu Yu said, and asked:

"I don't know what the old girl means."

Shu Yu remembered that it was not in modern times, this was the Song Kingdom, the deep-rooted traditional ideology, and the feudal system had not changed, so he said casually:

"Forget it, you don't understand this now, I will come to see these children every month in the future, and I will also invite a gentleman to come and teach them to read and write in the future, if I can, I will go back and discuss with Song Jing, and try not to send them away."

"Also, you are here to help check the gates, only if you really want to adopt a child and your family is okay, you will send it out, if those who have bad intentions, you can't give any of them."

The old woman bowed to Shu Yufu and replied:

"The old body understands. The old body will pay attention. ”

Shu Yu seemed to have a thousand words to explain, and continued:

"Auntie, after a while, I will send two more people over to help, and you will be easier at that time, I only have one request, be kind to these poor children, don't let them suffer."

The old woman was moved in her heart, no one had ever been so concerned and concerned about these children, Shu Yu was the first, the old woman bowed to Shu Yu and said:

"Thank you for those children!"
