Director Yang nodded slightly, didn't ask much about her mother, and arranged today's work, "Yesterday's statistics haven't been checked yet, you deal with this matter first, and then go out with me to the orphanage in the city to investigate." ”

"Do a survey?" Gong Linglong raised his eyebrows.

"Some time ago, some corrupt elements were thinking about relief food, which led to the orphanage and other places running out of food, so we went to investigate the actual situation."

Gong Linglong saw that the leaders had begun to investigate the matter, and immediately seized the opportunity to report: "I went to an orphanage once before I came here to work, and those children were so pitiful, they didn't even have a mouthful of thick porridge to drink, and there were not a few grains of rice in a big pot of vegetable porridge. At that time, the dean told me that the food was often not available, they couldn't open the pot, and the gruel was all from the children who went out to beg. ”

"So serious?" The faces of several leaders changed.

Gong Linglong nodded again and again, and said with an angry face: "It's very serious, the dean told me that not only these two months are in arrears of food, but they are often in arrears, and the amount of food supplied each time is not enough, and there are always at least ten days of worry about food every month." ”

"I went to the orphanage that day and bought them a bag of grain and some vegetables, which the dean said would make it through the week."

"When I went back in the second week, the dean told me that the cadres of the street office above said that they could not supply food, and they let them think for themselves this month."

"The dean also told me that they are not the only ones who are like this, the Glory Home and the Nursing Home are the same, their food has all bottomed out, and if I hadn't sent some food, they would have to go out to beg collectively."

After she finished speaking, Secretary Yan slammed the bowl on the table, his face gloomy: "Director Xiao, Director Yang, Deputy Director Liang, the three of you took Xiaogong, Xiaoli and Xiaoqin out to visit and investigate today, you divide the area, investigate the matter in detail, and send the investigation results to my office before getting off work." ”

"Okay."

When something was done, everyone sped up their meals, and immediately went their separate ways after eating.

Gong Linglong and Director Yang were in a group, they were in charge of the orphanage and the Glory Home donated by Gong Linglong, and she rode a bicycle to carry Director Yang straight to the orphanage.

"Sister."

Xiao Jiu just came back from collecting firewood outside, and when he saw her, he smiled, and he was not cowardly and scared when he first met, and told her happily: "Sister, we have food, Uncle PLA has sent us a lot of food, we won't be hungry." ”

As long as they are not hungry, the children are very happy, Gong Linglong looked sad, and reached out to touch his head: "I won't be hungry anymore." ”

After speaking, he asked him: "Xiao Jiu, is the dean's grandmother here?" ”

"Yes, I'll call her."

Xiao Jiu secretly glanced at Director Yang, carried firewood on his back, and ran into the yard.

The dean came out quickly, and when he saw Gong Linglong, he smiled: "Xiao Gong, I heard that you have found a job to work?" ”

"Dean, how do you know?" Gong Linglong was slightly surprised.

"Your mother came the evening before yesterday, and she said that she had paid her salary, bought us a few catties of fatty meat, and weighed us three catties of meat to eat, but the children were very happy."

The dean had a sad face a few days ago, but now that the food problem has been solved, the stone that pressed on his heart has been put down, and his smile is very relaxed today, and when he saw that she had brought someone over, he hurriedly asked: "Xiaogong, who is this comrade?" ”

"Dean, this is Director Yang of the Civil Affairs Department, my boss, today I accompanied Director Yang to investigate and understand the situation in the orphanage."

As soon as he heard that it was the leader of the civil affairs department, the dean hurriedly stepped forward: "Director Yang, hello." ”

"Dean Fang, you've worked hard all these years."

Director Yang stepped forward to shake hands with her and apologized: "I'm sorry, it's our negligence in our work, which allows corrupt and bad elements to take advantage of loopholes and make children hungry." ”

The dean didn't understand the meaning, and looked sideways at Gong Linglong.

Gong Linglong saw that the children were hiding in the house and peeking, and said, "Dean, let's go into the house and talk, I'll talk to you later." ”

"Hey, okay." The dean hurriedly invited the two into the house.

There are two large shops in the house, simple but quite tidy, but the quilts on the beds are so worn out that they are not visible, and the clothes worn by the children are also patches and patches, all of them are yellow and thin, and they look malnourished.

Director Yang saw that these children were timidly hiding in the corner when they saw her, and he was very sad, so he sat down on the bench at random, and said: "Dean Fang, you also sit, I am here today to understand the situation, and I will ask you to tell me truthfully about some things I will ask later, and I will arrange to solve it as soon as possible." ”

Gong Linglong sat beside her, nodded to the dean without a trace, and also took out a notebook to record.

Director Yang is a conscientious and rigorous person, the investigation is particularly careful, one morning only visited the orphanage and the nearby Glory House two places, at noon the two of them casually ate some steamed buns and rolls, and rushed to the third home to visit.

When passing by the vicinity of Dongjiang Park, Director Yang remembered that Gong Linglong was going to send flower rolls to her mother, and said: "Xiao Gong, go to the south gate, you go to send flower rolls to your mother, and I will also go to visit the elders." ”

"Director Yang, your parents are also in the nursing home?" Gong Linglong asked.

"It's my father's old buddy, and I visit him during the holidays." Director Yang replied simply.

Outsiders are usually not allowed to enter the nursing home, but they have work permits and come to visit their elders and relatives, so they register their information at the door and enter.

"Mom."

Bai Shuixian was eating at the door of the dormitory with a bowl, and when she saw her daughter coming, she got up with a smile: "Linglong, why are you here?" Have you eaten? ”

"I'll give you a flower roll."

Gong Linglong came over with a small basket, and saw that she made two vegetarian dishes, a small portion of white tofu and a small portion of carrots, and said: "Mom, usually eat better, buy a meat dish to eat, don't save too much." ”

"Don't worry, I usually eat well, but today I was a little late, and the meat dishes in the canteen were gone, so I bought two vegetarian dishes to eat."

Bai Shuixian pulled her into the house, she lived in a single room, the area was small, only seven or eight square meters, there were beds and desks, etc., cleaned up very cleanly, pulled her to sit on the bed, and asked: "Linglong, are you here today for something?" ”

"There's nothing special, I'm really here to deliver flower rolls."

Gong Linglong handed her the small basket, and took a few hard-boiled eggs from the space, and talked to her while peeling the shells.

Seeing that she was passing by here at work, Bai Shuixian waited for her to finish speaking and urged her: "Linglong, go to work quickly, don't let the leader wait for you, we will talk about other things when we go home the day after tomorrow." ”

"Don't worry, I'll make an appointment with Director Yang, and we'll meet at the door in ten minutes."

Gong Linglong put the eggs in her bowl and whispered to her about the donated food and the changes in the space.
