Chapter Ninety-Seven: Going Out
Chapter Ninety-Seven: Going Out
The weather is cold, Lin Xilai is reluctant to get up in the warm and comfortable bed, anyway, her grandmother will not urge her to get up early, she thought about last night's dream, and felt that it was an ordinary dream, and there was no special meaning, but the children who laughed happily in the dream reminded her of one thing:
A few days ago, I went to the courtyard of the Sun family, passing by a welfare home, there were nursery staff leading a few teenage boys and girls out of the door to clean, from the open iron gate, you can see that there is a large group of smaller children in the yard gathered together and do not know what to do, these children look clean as a whole, but almost all of them are as thin as firewood, there are vegetables, obviously malnourished, the clothes on the body are thin and shabby, the shoes are generally torn, some children even have no socks to wear, the body is shivering with cold, the body is stiff, walking can not move, the foot is always falling. Lin Xi felt sour in her heart, she herself grew up in an orphanage, and the conditions of the orphanage in later generations were much better than now, all thanks to the help of the rich and powerful country and people from all walks of life, and she now has a space full of supplies, she should help these children and let them get a little warmth in the cold winter.
Of course, you can't make a big deal of it, according to the current social status quo and a certain situation, if it is found that she can provide so many clothes and food alone, people's focus will definitely not be her good intentions, but endless scrutiny and questioning, if it involves grandparents and even Shen Yihui, it will be bad, to help orphans, you must act without exposing yourself.
Lin Xi thought about it, Leng couldn't find a safe way, the location of the main orphanage is not remote, it is a residential contiguous, densely populated street, it is estimated that it is an orphanage converted from private property donated by a member of the society, there are people walking in the streets and alleys all the time during the day, and there are some two- and three-story houses nearby, even at night, if you want to hide in the corner of the alley to do something, you have to beware of people standing behind the windows upstairs to see, so you want to be an unsung hero to run outside the orphanage or by the wall to engage in "airdrops" It's basically not feasible to throw something into it.
Put on makeup and find someone to deliver to the orphanage? Then you have to find a place to get things out first, and isn't it strange that the shipper doesn't keep the goods? What if the delivery person is not honest and takes the goods away halfway?
Lin Xi was worried, and suddenly remembered that he had mailed a package from Guizhou Province, using a fake address, and sending it to Haishi, Guo Dafu received it and handed it to his grandparents, and couldn't help but pat his head: This is stupid, right? I don't know how to use the ready-made method.
Although it will be slower to send the parcel, the things will eventually be delivered to the children, but what is the full name of the orphanage? The specific address is......
Lin Xi sighed helplessly, how to send things without an address, and he had to go on a trip to find out the situation.
After getting up and going downstairs to wash up, and having breakfast with her grandmother, Lin Xi said that she wanted to go out for a walk, and Liao Shuyi agreed: "The weather is good today, it is estimated that the sun will come out, change into new clothes and go shopping, take the money to buy something, and celebrate the New Year, you should be happy." ”
Lin Xi said: "Grandma will go with you?" ”
Liao Shuyi shook her head: "Yesterday I walked a little in the countryside, and today my whole body is sore and painful. ”
Lin Xi felt guilty, she forgot about this stubble, her grandmother was tired from walking all day yesterday, and she couldn't get out of bed.
But he said, "Where is grandma old?" Not old at all! It's just that if you get sick, you will get younger and younger! ”
Liao Shuyi chuckled: "Okay, good!" Grandma is not old, grandma still wants to be a wife, I want to see my good baby and grandchildren, I must not be old! ”
Lin Xi was speechless, how could the topic jump so far at once? Grandma is too good at turning corners!
At nine o'clock, the mist in the sky lifted, the sun came out through the cracks in the clouds, and the golden sunlight reflected the crystal snowdrifts on the streets, which was particularly dazzling.
Liao Shuyi asked Lin Xi to wear new clothes to go shopping, firstly, it was the New Year, and secondly, Lin Xi was still a bride, so she had to wear new clothes, which should be placed in the previous era, and the new clothes and new jewelry purchased by the newlywed were enough for her to wear them for three months without repeating them every day!
And now she can only wear three or two new clothes for the New Year, Liao Shuyi feels that she is really wronged by her granddaughter.
Lin Xi picked out her own clothes Liao Shuyi was not satisfied, went upstairs directly to rummage through the box, took out a burden, and personally dressed Lin Xi, this year does not allow jewels and flowers, but red, green and green flowers and grass can be there, Liao Shuyi wants her granddaughter to have a newlywed atmosphere with joy, but not too high-profile and too ostentatious, revealing an elegant and noble temperament of the slim tweed jacket and small leather boots were rejected by her, replaced with a small cotton jacket with a red bottom and a small cotton jacket, tied a powder blue scarf, straight pants with black leather shoes...... Lin Xi stood in front of the mirror, his mouth opened in an O-shape, and he almost didn't recognize himself.
"Grandma, do you see me like this, is it dirty?" Lin Xi wanted to refuse this dress.
"It's not dirty, it's beautiful! It's very festive! ”
Liao Shuyi sorted out the scarf for her granddaughter and stretched the placket, and smiled Mimi to look left and right: "When you got married, Aqiu bought you a few sets of clothes on the street, and only took two sets away for you, at that time I also felt that this was a bit too flowery, yesterday we met a newlywed couple who went back to their parents' house on the road, and the little daughter-in-law wore the same flower cotton jacket and a red scarf, happy and bright, it was really comfortable to look at!" ”
Lin Xi: "......"
So grandma actually thought about dressing her up like this yesterday!
When I went out, I met the neighbor's aunt and sister-in-law, and greeted each other to celebrate the New Year, and the other party praised Lin Xi's new clothes for looking good, Lin Xi looked down at the flower cotton jacket, and felt more and more embarrassed.
When I walked to the entrance of the alley, I saw a black car slowly driving into the alley and passing by her, Lin Xi definitely didn't expect that the car was about to go to her house, the driver of the car and Yu Xiaoqin's nanny sitting in the car had seen Lin Xi, and they were ordered by Mrs. Guan to pick up Lin Xi according to the address provided by Wang Ying to go to the Guan family to "go to the banquet"!
The funny thing is that Lin Xi's clothing style today is very different from usual, which completely changed her entire image, and the two people in the car opened their eyes and didn't recognize her.
This saves you from getting entangled.
