"Linglong."

White Narcissus was already waiting at the door, and when he saw her coming, he immediately went to meet her with a cloth bag.

Gong Linglong just bought two fritters at the state-run restaurant, ate one himself, handed her the fritters in his hand, and asked with a smile: "Mom, is the work going well this week?" ”

"The old cadres in the sanatorium are very easy to get along with, except for two old people whose brains are chaotic and not sober, everyone else can walk and move, my main job is to give them massage, cupping, chatting and talking with them, and the work is not tiring."

Bai Shuixian has only been in class for a week, and she has become familiar with the people in the sanatorium, and her massage techniques have been recognized by the old cadres, and now everyone takes turns to ask her to massage, and she does not need to do some other chores at all.

She didn't plan to say much about work, but asked: "Linglong, are you plowing the land in the spring this week?" Is it hard? ”

"It's already busy, this time with the help of the art troupe, we don't have a hard time."

"Huh? The people of the art troupe help you farm? White Narcissus was slightly surprised.

"They did it themselves."

Gong Linglong walked with her, and told her about the next art troupe on the way.

The mother and daughter hadn't seen each other for a week, and there were endless topics, talking and laughing all the way to the meat factory and buying some pork.

As for the chicken that Lu Jingchuan confessed to buying, Bai Shuixian didn't buy it, she plans to wait for her son-in-law to come back from a business trip next week, and then buy a chicken, open some nourishing Chinese medicinal materials, and stew it together to nourish her body.

After buying meat, Gong Linglong planned to go to the orphanage, and said to her: "Mom, this place is not far from the orphanage, I want to go over and take a trip." ”

"Let's go, I'll go with you."

Gong Linglong took a piece of cloth from the space and gave it to her mother, asked her to use it as a headscarf to wrap her head, and put on a hat and mask herself.

When the mother and daughter came, the dean was scrubbing their clothes, and the bamboo poles in the courtyard were full of old clothes.

"Little comrade."

Seeing Gong Linglong, the dean was very happy, and hurriedly stopped what he was doing to welcome her.

"Dean." Gong Linglong smiled at her and introduced her: "This is my mother, she said to come and see you." ”

Bai Shuixian just bought a few catties of fat meat in the meat factory, sent it to the dean, and spoke softly: "Dean, I just heard my daughter talk about this matter, there is no special preparation, you can take this bit of lard and fat, it is a little bit of heart I give to the children." ”

"Thank you, comrade."

This intention is very practical, it is what the orphanage needs most, the children here can't eat a bite of meat all year round, and they rarely put oil in cooking vegetables, and it is difficult to see oil flowers in a pot of vegetables.

Today the weather was warm, and all the older children went out except for the children under the age of four who were at home.

The children of the poor families have long been in charge, and the older children in the orphanage are the main workers, and they have all gone out today to find firewood and food, and the younger ones have been left at home to be taken care of by the director.

Their mother and daughter moved a bench and sat in the courtyard, chatting with the dean about the orphanage, and when they learned that the food supply above was cut off for a month, Gong Linglong changed her face on the spot: "No supply for a month? Who is this notifying? If you don't give food for a month, isn't this letting the children in the orphanage die? ”

"Hey, it says that more relief is needed elsewhere, and that life is a little better in our big cities, so let's figure out how to get through it this month and ensure a timely supply of food next month."

When the dean said this, he was also very helpless, and his face was full of gratitude: "Comrade Xiaogong, you have sent us so much food, we have been able to survive this month." ”

Knowing the current situation of the orphanage, Gong Linglong would not watch the children starving, but the matter of cutting off the supply of food, she felt a little strange and asked: "Dean, was it the leader of the civil affairs department who came to inform you, or the cadres of the street office you said last time?" ”

"The cadres in charge of the streets."

On the orphanage's side, the director was in contact with the cadre in charge of the street, and had never been to the civil affairs department, and there were so many children in her family who needed to be taken care of, she couldn't take the time to go to the civil affairs department to ask.

"What's the name of the other party?" Gong Linglong asked again.

"Xu Qingsheng."

Gong Linglong remembered the name, and the person also got up, "Mom, you sit here with the dean, I'll go find someone to inquire." ”

"Okay." Bai Shuixian also felt that the cut off of food supply was abnormal, and told her: "Linglong, pay attention to safety." ”

"Mom, I know."

After Gong Linglong finished speaking, she strode away, she had come here several times, she was more familiar with this area, and went straight to the nearby street office.

"Eldest sister, is Comrade Xu Qingsheng here?"

There are only three small offices in the sub-district office, and there is a middle-aged woman at the door who is the receptionist, and the other party is writing something with her head down, and when she hears that she is looking for Xu Qingsheng, she points outside, "Director Xu just went out and walked for less than half a minute." ”

"Did you go to the left or right?" Gong Linglong asked hurriedly.

"Right."

"Thank you." Gong Linglong thanked him and immediately pulled his legs to follow.

There are not many people walking on this road, and after running for one or two hundred meters, she saw a middle-aged man carrying a briefcase, the other party was of medium height, and he was standing on the side of the road looking at his watch at this time, she guessed that this person should be Xu Qingsheng.

Just as she was about to step forward and call out to him, a familiar voice stopped her steps, "Brother Xu, I've been waiting for a long time." ”

Gong Linglong recognized this voice, it was Xu Wei's fake cousin, she saw a dark corner next to her, and after carefully confirming the safety of the surroundings, she immediately hid in the corner to turn on the stealth function, and then strode close to them.

The person who spoke to Xu Qingsheng was Xu Wei's fake cousin, the two seemed to be very familiar, and they were very cautious when they spoke, and both of them tacitly looked around first.

After making sure that no one noticed them, Xu Qingsheng spoke first: "The quantity you want has not been prepared yet, only ninety percent has been prepared, and now it has been put in the warehouse." You take it over first, and I'll figure out the rest, but it will take some time. ”

"Give me the exact time."

Xu Qingsheng groaned and replied to him: "Three days." ”

"Okay, I won't deliver this batch of goods first, and when you get it together, I'll arrange someone to deliver it."

The other party handed him a cigarette as he spoke, lit a fire, and continued in a small voice: "I am just going to run errands in the past two days, and when the matter is completed and your food is enough, we will arrange it together at that time." ”

"Okay." Xu Qingsheng nodded.

The two of them spoke in a very small voice, but Gong Linglong stood very close, and he could hear the content of his speech clearly.

The so-called food supply cut is all these bastards behind their backs.

Thinking about what the dean said last time, she was now basically sure that not only the food supply in the orphanage was cut off, but the same situation had occurred in the Glory Home and other nursing homes, and all the food that should have been supplied to them was intercepted by these dregs who were inferior to the beasts for personal gain.

In order to find out Xu Wei's true identity and find out their other accomplices hiding in Seoul, Gong Linglong did not do anything to them, and after listening to what they said later, he hurried back to the orphanage.

After returning to the orphanage, he didn't tell the truth to his mother and the dean, and told a little lie: "When I went over, the cadre named Xu Qingsheng had just gone out to run errands, and I will go to him next time I have time to ask." ”
