Chapter 43: A Day in the Orphanage
As soon as Chen Ming hung up the phone, another phone call came.
No remarks!
After connecting, it was actually the staff on the side of Wang Yuyun, who wanted to package and buy the copyright of all the songs he sang in the audition competition.
And the price given made Chen Ming excited!
Is it sold?
In fact, what Wang Jiyun wants is the exclusive right to sell the song, and he doesn't want other music platforms to get involved in Chen Ming's songs.
Thinking of this, Chen Ming decided to sign a contract with the other party.
But the song "Dream Chasing Pure Heart" can't be sold!
Even Chen Ming wanted to give this song to Feng Yiping for free, because this song was originally used to inspire people's hearts and encourage struggle, and it was a bit cheesy to talk about money.
After a brief negotiation, the two parties agreed on a time to sign the contract the next day.
The next morning, after signing the contract, Chen Ming had a huge amount of money in his hand.
It's a really big deal!!
At least Chen Ming has never seen so much money in his account in his life.
In his previous life on the earth, although Chen Ming was a small rich second generation, his family was strictly controlled, and he couldn't squander it like other rich second generations.
But now, he has an extra string of numbers in his card, a full 500,000.
"It's time to go back to the orphanage."
Chen Ming thought silently.
He's rich now!
It's time to give a helping hand to the orphanage.
It's true that the director didn't ask the children who left the orphanage to donate money or materials when they went back, but who wouldn't want to go back upright?!
The children in the orphanage are very sensitive inside.
Even if you grow up and leave the orphanage, the psychology of having a good face and fighting for breath will be particularly strong.
Chen Ming is no exception!
Thinking of this, Chen Ming went to the market to buy a large number of school supplies, toys and clothes, hired a truck, and loaded them all onto the car.
Immediately afterwards, I bought another leather bag and went to the bank to withdraw 300,000.
Everything was ready, Chen Ming got into the co-pilot of the truck and drove towards the Happy Orphanage.
On the other side,
Su Rou ran to Chen Ming's house, but found that Chen Ming was not at home.
Come with joy and return disappointed.
However, she did not call Chen Ming, but sent a text message and went home.
Chen Ming received Su Rou's text message and was slightly stunned.
This girl!
Why do you like to run to his broken house so much......
If anything, just call him.
replied to a text message casually, and Chen Ming ignored it anymore, because the gate of the Happy Orphanage was in front of him.
Suddenly, Chen Ming was a little nervous.
He came through time, and theoretically, the emotional affiliation to this orphanage should not be strong, but it is the opposite.
When Chen Ming saw those five words, his heart was inexplicably bitter and moved.
There are also a lot of memories that don't belong to me!
Stop and get out of the car and tell the driver to wait for him.
The door was broken, and it was pushed open with a push, and there was nothing of value in the orphanage, and the old dean was strapped for money, so the matter of repairing the door was shelved.
Chen Ming walked into the orphanage alone, the layout inside has basically not changed, more than ten years have passed, and it is still the same as Chen Ming remembers.
So many years
Many children who walked out of the Happy Orphanage came back and donated a lot of money.
But the dean used it all to buy nutrition, school supplies, toys, tuition, and all kinds of miscellaneous expenses for the children.
In the end, there was no money to rebuild the orphanage!
A few years ago, there was an elderly security guard at the gate of the orphanage, and now the security booth has been empty for a long time.
Looking around, Chen Ming saw the dean at a glance.
The dean is old and likes to sleep in the sun in the courtyard.
The child, who was still playing, looked at Chen Ming with a curious expression, as if he didn't understand the big brother's intention.
Chen Ming did not wake up the dean, but walked up to the child, squatted down and asked with a smile, "Do you know who I am?" ”
The children shook their heads, a little timid.
The eldest child was thoughtful, and looked at Chen Ming's ordinary face a little familiar.
Chen Ming looked over and rubbed the child's hair vigorously: "Han Bingbing, don't you know me?!" ”
The child who was called Han Bingbing looked shocked and finally remembered.
"Brother Chen?!"
"Brother Chen!!"
When Chen Ming was in high school, Han Bingbing was still in elementary school.
At that time, Chen Ming was silent and didn't talk much, but he was very good to the children who were younger than him in the orphanage, and he gave what he had to those younger children first, and he couldn't spoil them.
After so many years, Han Bingbing is already in high school!
In fact
Children like Chen Ming, who have completed high school, are a minority in the orphanage.
Many children quit after junior high school, and some of them are even not qualified to go to school, but Han Bingbing is studying very well and may be admitted to Kyoto University in the future, so the dean does not let him drop out.
"Stinky boy!"
Chen Ming scolded with a smile.
Han Bingbing shouted excitedly: "I'll call the dean." ”
Chen Ming stopped him: "Let the old man sleep more." ”
"Come out and help me move something."
"Good!"
Han Bingbing shouted a large group of boys, and the young girls also shrank together and watched curiously.
Coming to the gate, Chen Ming instructed the driver to open the cargo door.
Learning utensils, toys and clothes are not heavy, so children do not have a hard time carrying them.
After some tossing, half an hour passed.
The van drove away slowly.
Chen Ming stood in front of a group of children, with the posture of a child king, and said: "Han Bingbing, go and count how many children there are, I'll see if there is still a shortage." ”
"If it's missing, I'll buy it again."
Han Bingbing and a group of other boys shouted excitedly, there are not many children in the orphanage, and there are only fifty or sixty of them.
And Chen Ming bought two or three hundred pieces of each!
There can even be a lot left.
Rubbing Han Bingbing's head, the children were very sensible to share what they wanted, without arguing or grabbing, which made Chen Ming feel a lot more relieved.
The shouts of the children just now woke up the dean.
"What's wrong?"
"What are you shouting?"
The dean hurriedly got up, for fear that something would happen.
In a hurry, he almost stumbled and fell off the rocking chair, and Chen Ming hurriedly ran over to support the dean's body.
"Dean, it's okay, I bought something for the kids."
"Chen Ming?"
The dean helped his reading glasses, didn't think about it, and slapped Chen Ming directly on the back of the head: "If you go out for five or six years, don't you say that you will come back to see, is it out?" Can't afford this? ”
"Oops, Dean, it hurts!"
"No, how dare I."
Chen Ming rubbed the back of his head and pretended to be innocent.
The dean snorted coldly, looked at the other children, and was a little surprised: "You bought all this?" ”
"Why do you buy so much, I still have money in my pocket, so I don't have to spend so much money."
With Chen Ming's help, the dean straightened up.
Chen Ming commanded, and all the children nodded sensibly.
When he came to the office, Chen Ming said with a smile: "Dean, you haven't been back for so many years, do you miss me?!" ”
"Miss you fart!"
The dean complained, but the smile in his eyes couldn't be hidden.
After being the director of an orphanage for a lifetime, the greatest happiness is to see that every child who leaves the orphanage can achieve something and gain something.
Chen Ming became famous.
This made the dean Lao Huai happy.
"You children are going to be very strong, we don't ask you to be rich, I have time to come back and see more, I don't know how many years I can live with this body."
"Maybe one day I won't be there."
Chen Ming's nose was sore, and he put the leather bag in his hand next to the dean's office table, and obediently massaged the dean's shoulders without saying a word.
"Stay for dinner in the evening."
"Hey, good~"
Chen Ming agreed.
At night
Chen Ming's cooking skills are not good, but it does not prevent him from cooking his best home-cooked dish, scrambled eggs with tomatoes.
Fifty or sixty children sat outside, and through the starry night, the fragrant food reached everyone's nostrils.
The old dean also showed his skills and made several dishes.
There are a little more kids, so the dishes have to be made a little more!
At eight o'clock in the evening, Chen Ming and the dean were busy, in fact, the dean was busy throughout the whole process, and Chen Ming was helping to wash the vegetables and make soy sauce.
No way!
Poor cooking is like this......
Chen Ming made up his mind to learn how to cook in the future.
"It's time to eat!"
Chen Ming shouted.
A group of children took their bowls and lined up in front of Chen Ming.
After a happy meal, Chen Ming sat among the children and sang nursery rhymes to them, and the dean was also full of smiles.
Tomorrow is Monday.
Chen Ming simply sang a few songs and urged the children to go to sleep.
Going to school is a big deal!
If you oversleep tomorrow and be late, that's not good.
After settling the child, Chen Ming said softly: "Dean, I will often come back to see it in the future." ”
"You kid can do it if he has a heart."
"Then I'll go first."
"Be careful on the road!"
The dean watched Chen Ming disappear at the end of the street before walking back slowly.
Chen Ming glanced back, and then left a little reluctantly.
The dean did not go to sleep directly, but went to the office to take out the photo album, opened the photo album, and a childish face appeared in his mind.
Suddenly, his foot hit a bag.
When I looked down, it was a leather bag!
Open, a full 300,000.
"This kid."
The dean was not too shocked, but closed the zipper and continued to look through the photo album.
"Hey, old man, I always want to sleep."
With that, the dean got up and went back to his room.
Chen Ming walked on the streets at night, and on Sunday nights, there were many passers-by coming and going, mostly in groups.
After spending a day in the orphanage, Chen Ming thought a lot.
But what is very helpless is that he is not like other traversal texts, either he can cultivate immortals, or he has a system.
He doesn't have too special abilities!
So looking at the old and gray dean, Chen Ming was speechless, and he couldn't say uncomfortable.
Suddenly, Chen Ming's shoulder was patted.
Looking back, it was Su Rou.
"How do you know where I am?"
Chen Mington was shocked.
The text message he replied to was just a simple sentence that he had something to do and was busy outside.
Su Rou playfully stuck out her tongue: "Guessed." ”
Chen Ming laughed helplessly, it seemed that there were not many places he could go.
"Have you eaten?"
"Not yet."
"Please eat and watch a movie."
As soon as she heard the movie, Su Rou's eyes lit up: "Okay, good." ”
This trip was not in vain.
Chen Ming also thought that he had nothing to do when he went home, so it was better to relax and watch a movie. Starting tomorrow, I will start to study the basics of music seriously, and I will be so busy that I will not have time to rest at all.
The figures of the two were stretched longer and longer by the street lamp, and slowly walked away!
Today
For Chen Ming, life is very fulfilling, even more fulfilling than practicing songs every day.
