Ye Shuang, who was sitting on the swing, remembered the first day of her arrival, she sat on the edge of the sand pool, watching everyone have fun, Dean Liu Ming wanted to pull her up to play with other children, she was lying on the ground and refused to move, it was at this time, a bald little boy came over, stretched out his hand to her, there were black dirty things between his fingers, he said: "Let's play together." ”

Ye Shuang stretched out his hand, and the little boy grabbed it, "My name is He Moxi, you can call me Brother Xixi." What's your name? ”

Ye Shuang pouted and replied, "Ye Shuang." ”

"Then I can call you Little Leaf." At that time, Ho Moxi was still a young and sharp children's voice.

Since then, the two have become friends, and both have the same experience, both were abandoned after birth, and they didn't even know what their relatives looked like. Later, Ye Shuang asked him: "Why are you still bald when you are six years old?" ”

"Dean Liu said that I don't like to wash my hair, and I almost got lice once, so he shaved me."

Ye Shuang thought of these past events and laughed to herself.

"I really want to go back to when I was a kid, back to when we weren't apart, then we could go to school together, play together, grow up together. If we hadn't separated, maybe not so much would have happened. ”

After sitting for a while, Ye Shuang took back the photo on the swing, got up and started to walk towards the road, and Jing Yuan followed again. She went to the nearby orphanage, called the Happiness Orphanage, where they had stayed together. She walked to the door of the orphanage, and the security guard in the security booth stopped her, "This girl, the orphanage is off work now, and it is not open to the public at night." ”

"Excuse me, is Dean Liu Ming still here?" Ye Shuang asked, Liu Ming was the old dean in the past, but she rarely came back to visit him since she was adopted.

"Liu Ming? I haven't heard of this person, anyway, the current dean is not him, I just came here to work as a security guard. The security guard replied casually while looking at his phone.

Inside, a slightly chubby middle-aged woman happened to walk out with a bag, and happened to hear Ye Shuang ask, so she said, "What are you looking for Dean Liu?" ”

Ye Shuang turned around and bowed, "Hello." I used to live here, and I used to be an orphan, and I was taken by Dean Liu, and I want to come back to see him. When Ye Shuang looked at the woman in front of her seriously, she said in surprise: "It's me!" Mr. Zhong! ”

The middle-aged woman squinted slightly and looked Ye Shuang up and down carefully, and said in surprise: "Is it Shuang'er?" ”

Ye Shuang nodded happily, Ye Shuang didn't have a surname before, only a single word 'frost', and later took the surname of his adoptive father and changed his name to Ye Shuang.

The middle-aged woman's name is Zhong Xue, who was once in charge of Ye Shuang's life and Jingyuan's daily life, Zhong Xue stretched out her hand to stroke Ye Shuang's hair, and smiled brightly, "Ouch! We've grown so big! It's really getting more and more iconic! ”

Ye Shuang hugged Zhong Xue violently, "I miss you so much, Teacher Zhong!" ”

Zhong Xue hugged her back, held her hand, and said, "Come, let's go inside and talk!" We haven't seen each other in a long time. ”

"Hmm!" Seeing that Ye Shuang met his old friend, Jing Yuan also followed, it stands to reason that this is also his old friend.

Ye Shuang looked at the still familiar compound, the familiar banyan tree, and the familiar canteen, and burst into tears. I still remember that in the past, many children liked to play under the big banyan tree, play eagles to catch chickens, jump rubber bands, hide and seek, and build houses for ants with stones.

Zhong Xue took her into the orphanage, "In the past two years, the government has allocated funds to renovate the orphanage." ”

"yes, I can see it, it's not the same as before." In the past, as soon as you entered the door, the large classroom on the first floor was changed into a small auditorium. The small auditorium on the second floor has been transformed into a multi-purpose media room that is close to the modern era. Zhong Xue led Ye Shuang into the teacher's office and asked Ye Shuang to sit on the chair, "You sit for a while, I'll make you a cup of tea." ”

"Teacher Zhong! No need, it's too much trouble for you! ”

"It's fine. Wait a minute! Zhong Xue took the teapot and went to the hot water cabinet to fill the water.

Ye Shuang looked around, and the previous four-heart slogan was still written on the wall of the office, 'Love, Patience, Sincerity, Perseverance'. She also saw a group photo of the children who came in the same year as her on the bulletin board, pointed to He Moxi, and said to herself: "Moxi, look! It's also a photo of us. ”

After listening to her, Jing Yuan also stepped forward to look at the yellowed old photo, and following Ye Shuang's fingers, he saw a small bald head, but he didn't expect that he used to be a bald boy! In the photo, he has his hands in his trouser pockets, his feet open, and he looks up at the camera with his head up. Although the photo is overmolded, the lower left corner of it is still a little melted. In the photo, standing in the middle is Dean Liu Ming, and she and He Moxi are standing on the left and right sides of the dean. In the past, the teachers in the hospital liked the two of them very much, saying that the two of them could be described as golden boys and girls, both of them were smart and outstanding, and they could learn anything quickly and decently.

At this time, Zhong Xue walked in with a teacup and put it in front of her desk, Ye Shuang hurriedly said, "Thank you, teacher!" ”

Zhong Xue showed a gentle smile, "Shuang'er, have you been doing well all these years?" ”

Ye Shuang smiled, "It's not bad." Mr. Zhong, what about you? ”

"Well, me. As always, I've always been a life teacher, and I'm used to it. You should have graduated from college, right? ”

"It's been years since I graduated! I'm working as an illustrator now. ”

"Yikes! Time is so fast, in the blink of an eye, you are all older children, and you have a job. Frost is a great illustrator, you've been great at drawing before. Zhong Xue remembered that there was a New Year's party in the past, which was the background board painting work hosted by Ye Shuang, and the background board she painted that year is still stored in the warehouse.

"It's just a hobby. The painting is not very exquisite. Mr. Zhong, is Dean Liu retired? ”

"Yes. Dean Liu retired three years ago. He was recently hospitalized, is old, and is not in good health. Zhong Xue sighed.

"What?! What is wrong with Dean Liu? In which hospital? Ye Shuang asked eagerly.

"It's pneumonia, in the Second People's House of the city."

"Then I'll find a day to visit him."

"Let's go check it out. He's eager to meet you, too. ”

Jing Yuan left the office early and went to the orphanage to look around. He passed by the classroom and saw that there were small benches neatly arranged inside, and then passed by the recovery room, which was dedicated to children with disabilities. Finally, I came to the compound outside the orphanage, looked up at the bright moon hanging in the sky, and a strong sense of loneliness followed. Because it was late at night, the children stayed in the accommodation building and went to bed, and Jing Yuan also floated to the accommodation building. He casually entered a dormitory, which was a boy's dormitory in a four-person room, and there was a small light on the bunk, and there was a small sobbing sound.
