What happened that day came very suddenly for us. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It was April 12, 1992, and I remember that it seemed to be a Wednesday, and Hua Xiaoyue and I were both in school classes, but in the second class in the morning, I was called out of the classroom by my homeroom teacher, Mr. Wang.

Teacher Wang told me, "You don't have to go to class today, you can go back to the classroom now, pack your schoolbag, and then go back to the welfare home immediately with Hua Xiaoyue, a student from Class 4." ”

I felt incomprehensible, although I saw that Mr. Wang's expression was a little serious, I still had the courage to ask her:

"Why don't we have classes today?"

Teacher Wang said: "I don't know very well, just now the welfare institute called our school, saying that there is an urgent matter, and asked you to go back immediately." ”

I waited in the teacher's office for about two minutes in confusion before I saw Hua Xiaoyue come in.

When Teacher Wang saw her coming, he said to us, "Don't think about it now, let's go back together, and pay attention to safety on the road." ”

Hua Xiaoyue didn't ask much, glanced at me, and turned away silently. I hesitated and followed out of the office.

This time, the two of us didn't pretend not to know each other as before, and when we went down the stairs, I asked Hua Xiaoyue:

"Did your teacher Hong tell you anything? Why don't we have classes today? What happened?"

Hua Xiaoyue didn't answer, just lowered her head and walked quickly.

I touched a cold nail, felt a little unhappy, and said: "Actually, if you don't say it, I also guessed that I must have accidentally broken the window glass in the music room of the welfare home yesterday, and you told Mr. Jiang, right?"

"Don't think of people so badly, who sued you?"

"Then why are you going back with me?"

She glanced back at me and hesitated for a moment before saying, "The teacher didn't tell me, how do I know?" With that, he turned around and continued walking.

"Hmph, you were the only one who saw me break that window glass yesterday, who are you suing?"

"Whatever you think, I'm not the kind of person you say I am. ”

"Even if it wasn't your own complaint, it must have been you who told someone else about it, and then someone else sued me, so the welfare institute asked us to go back together to confront each other!"

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to you. ”

"Hmph, dare not admit it! If this is the case, sooner or later I will find out which sinister villain sued me!"

She didn't say a word, just quickened her pace.

I followed her ass and stared at her back with hatred. If it weren't for school, I would have wanted to go up and punch her!

Just as I was wondering who had sued me, she suddenly stopped and looked back at me.

My heart suddenly felt that although she was a girl, she was taller than me, and I couldn't help but feel a little afraid when I saw her suddenly stop and look at me coldly.

If a boy beats a girl, not only will he be criticized by the teacher, but he will also be said that the boy bullies the girl, but if the boy fights with the girl, the boy suffers a loss, it is a shame!

I was looking at her warily, but she whispered to me:

"I guess there will be an adult coming to our orphanage?"

"What are you going to do?" because my mind was full of things about breaking the window glass in the music room of our welfare home, so I was a little confused by her words.

"Maybe there's an adult who wants to adopt one of us, right?"

I was taken aback, and then it dawned on me: "Why didn't you say it earlier!

"Why did I say it earlier? Our teacher didn't tell me what it was, I guessed it myself. ”

I sighed, and thought to myself, "Maybe that's really the case! If the glass of a window is broken, even if the teachers at the welfare home knew about it, they wouldn't have called the school to tell us to go back and confront us." ”

The thought that one of the two of us might be adopted today makes me nervous and excited.

I don't know if the other children in the children's welfare home have the same heart as me, hoping that one day I will be adopted by a kind couple and taken out of the orphanage.

The reason for this desire is not only that every child longs for a real home in their hearts, but also because the environment of the children's welfare home is not suitable for every child's growth.

Because most of the children in the children's welfare home are either mentally handicapped or have some kind of physical disability, as a healthy and mentally normal child, of course I do not want to live in the same compound with them forever. It's not that I'm an indifferent person, and that just because I'm sympathetic doesn't mean that I like and have patience to be with them. It's like a normal person who doesn't want to live in a mental hospital.

I remember that every time before the arrival of an adult who was willing to adopt us, the aunt who took care of our lives would whisper to us, "You must behave well and be polite later." If you behave well, you may have a real home, with Mom and Dad. ”

When my aunt said these words to us, although we were mostly silent and had some inexplicable uneasiness in our hearts, we were actually secretly hoping that we would be the lucky one to be looked at.

So whenever a stranger, accompanied by a staff member, comes to us and asks us questions, we try our best to behave ourselves. Unless we don't have an eye for the other person, or see that the other person's family is in a difficult situation, and we don't want to be adopted by them, we will deliberately behave badly.

After leaving school, we were still a little apart as before, but we were not far apart. She was in front and I was behind, and we were only five meters apart.

Along the way, I was very uneasy. Although the teacher told me not to think too much, I kept thinking nonsense.

"Who will be the one who wants to adopt the children of our orphanage this time?"

"Does the family want boys, or girls?"

"I probably won't be taken seriously, as I used to, although I tried to be polite every time an adult asked me a question, but after a few days, when the adults came to the home again, it was always other children who were adopted. ”

After every failure in the "competition", although I don't care on the surface, I actually have an indescribable sense of loss in my heart, and every time I fail, I will feel an inferiority complex in my heart.

Looking at Hua Xiaoyue's back, I had a bad premonition: maybe I would fail again, she was taken by others, and I continued to live in a welfare home like a child who would never be wanted. Just like Hua Zhou.

Hua Zhou was also a boy, and he was already fourteen years old at the time, which was past the best age for adoption.

Those adults want to adopt young, good-looking, healthy, and mentally normal children.

After thinking about it all the way, I finally returned to the welfare home.

I originally thought that this time there would only be one couple to choose the children, and the main contender would be Hua Xiaoyue, but when I arrived at the welfare home, I realized that there were two couples this time.

And the ones they selected, in addition to me and Hua Xiaoyue, there are also Hua Zhou, Hua Xiaofen, and Hua Furong.

Hua Xiaofen and Hua Furong are both studying in our primary school, Hua Xiaofen is in the fifth grade, Hua Furong is in the fourth grade, and only Hua Zhou is a junior high school student. There is also Hua Zhengyue, who is studying in middle school, did not appear, probably because she is already in the third grade of high school and is too old, so there is no need to meet.

As before, before meeting with the adults, my aunt secretly told us some things that needed attention.

Although I bowed my head and agreed, I obviously lacked confidence, and my voice was as small as a mosquito's cry, which made my aunt very unhappy.

But this time the result was beyond our expectations, the five of us were called to the office one by one, accompanied by two staff members of the welfare home, and after some simple questions and answers with the two couples face-to-face, Hua Xiaoyue and I were called to the office again when it was almost time for lunch.

One of the staff told us that I had been adopted by the older couple, while Hua Xiaoyue had been adopted by another couple who looked a little more well-dressed. Just now, they have signed a foster care agreement with the welfare institute, agreeing to take us to their family for foster care for half a year, and then determine whether to formally adopt them according to the situation after half a year.

After talking, the couple who agreed to adopt me, now my parents, immediately took me back to my bedroom, helped me pack all my personal belongings, and led me out of Hwaseong Welfare Home.

We went straight to the long-distance bus station, ate noodles at a small restaurant at the station, and left Hwaseong that afternoon, and after nearly five hours of bumpy ride, we arrived at the county seat where I now live.

In this way, without my mental preparation, I was adopted and separated from Hua Xiaoyue from then on.
