Chapter 3727 Get out of the house
For Zi Ling's mother, even if she hasn't come back for a long time, when the memories that have penetrated into her bones are presented one by one, it is no exaggeration to say that even if she closes her eyes, she can find her way to the dean's office.
——Xiaoling, you took your younger brothers and sisters out to run away again, and there was no more meal tonight!
——Stand outside the door until twelve o'clock in the evening!
——The skin is itchy again, right? I want to eat a feather duster, right! Turn around and stand up!
"It hasn't changed for so many years, so I've put a feather duster at the door..." Zi Ling's mother smiled and picked up the feather duster outside the dean's office and muttered: "Who are you scaring, old woman."
The door of the dean's office was not completely closed. Zi Ling's mother pushed it hard and the door opened.
But the dean is not in the office.
She blinked and walked into the office with a slight touch... There was actually a small house inside, which was the dean's room.
Since I was very young, Zi Ling's mother felt that the dean was a workaholic and always had endless energy to use.
She heard some movement at this time, which came from the small room inside.
He gently pushed open the inner door and saw the dean sitting beside the bed, bent over... A smell of Yunnan Baiyao came.
The dean began to tear open the waist patch, but it seemed that he couldn't find the right position, and he failed several times.
"Old woman, do you want to help?" Zi Ling's mother pushed open the door, leaned on the door frame and asked, tilting her head.
"Help? I'll be fine if you don't get angry." The dean's shoulders trembled slightly, but he didn't look back. "Didn't you ask you to go back? Why haven't you left yet?"
Zi Ling's mother rolled her eyes, walked over, picked up Yunnan Baiyao and squirted on the dean's waist, and began to rub it vigorously.
"Hiss... You damn girl, you want to kill someone!"
"How can I dissipate the silt if I don't have much force?" Zi Ling's mother said, "What are you teaching, Dean!"
The dean seemed to be so angry that he had nothing to say, so he simply said nothing. Zi Ling's mother tore open the new ointment and slapped it hard on the dean's back, "Is there anything else?"
The dean didn't say anything, just twisted his waist silently.
Zi Ling's mother said angrily: "Old woman, just be stubborn, don't look at how old she is. She dares to pull such a big stool when driving a tricycle in the rain. You think you are still young."
"You are here to quarrel!" The dean was furious, "Get out, it's not good here..."
The dean who turned around saw Ren Ziling's tears at this moment.
"…Forget it, I'm afraid of you." The dean sighed, "Stay as long as you like, remember to pay the accommodation fee. There is no money here to support idle people!"
Zi Ling's mother wiped the corners of her eyes. This time she was really angry and was aroused. "Damn old lady, can't you say something nice?"
"Yes, add more money!"
"..." Zi Ling's mother was angry and laughed again: "Is the finance of the welfare home tight? I remember my godfather gave a lot of money before... Also, there should be a lot of donations during this period, right?"
"That's the past." The dean frowned and said, "For so many years, labor, food, and education for children, what do you tell me if you don't need to spend money? The donors are not as much as you imagined! One more time will be fired in the welfare home next year!"
Zi Ling's mother was stunned, "Is it so difficult?"
The dean said angrily: "This place is too biased, and young people are unwilling to come. If you just use local villagers, you can do things with ease, but what's the use? They won't teach children at all! Children have not received good education since childhood. How can they come out of society to make a living in the future? If someone with ability comes to work, you have to pay more, right?"
Zi Ling's mother thought for a while and said, "Since it's all like this, wouldn't it be better to just let the place be demolished? Didn't Sister Liu say that the developer is willing to help rebuild a new welfare home? The conditions should be pretty good, right?"
"That's how Liu Susu told you?" The dean frowned.
Zi Ling's mother pondered: "Why, Sister Liu is hiding something?"
The dean shook his head and said, "The conditions promised by the developer are really good, but I was actually moved. The question is, before the new welfare home was built, where were we living? Where did dozens of children here live? They don't agree with their attitude of not relocating, and just giving money, everything will be fine."
"What's going on?" Zi Ling's mother said in surprise: "Are they planning to tear down the place before talking about it?"
"Anyway, if I didn't give a solution that satisfies me, I would not sign back for this word no matter what!"
The dean said in a deep voice: "I know why Liu Susu was so anxious to ask me to sign. Her son asked for his wife and asked for money to buy a house in the city. In fact, the others also received more or less the benefits promised by the developer."
Zi Ling's mother said in confusion: "I, Mr. Qi, handed over the welfare home to you... It was because I trust you and delivered it in full. I don't understand, how can Sister Liu and others get benefits from the developers?"
"You don't know that since your godfather gave me this place, in order to enable the welfare home to continue and to do things better for employees, I have given 30% of the ownership to Liu Susu and the others free of charge." The dean sighed.
"No wonder..." Zi Ling's mother suddenly realized and immediately became angry, "How can Sister Liu do this? She doesn't explain this kind of thing to me!"
"You were grown up because she watched you grow up, how could she not know your personality?" The dean said angrily: "If she told the truth, could you agree to her come back and persuade her this time?"
Zi Ling's mother was still angry, "How can I hide such a thing? As long as I talk to you about it, I will know everything!"
The dean said: "I think she will find you privately soon."
"No, I'll scold her!" Zi Ling's mother said angrily.
"Liu Susu also has her difficulties." The dean shook his head: "Her man had a stroke a few years ago. Although he was cured, he fell into the root of the disease and was partial to the bed and basically had no ability to work. As for her son, he finally got a wife and had to do it... It was just that the salary of the welfare home was not enough."
...
Not long after coming out of the dean's office, Zi Ling's mother saw Sister Liu in the corridor outside.
Sister Liu grabbed the corner of her clothes and looked here nervously, wanting to speak but stopping.
Zi Ling's mother sighed and walked over.
"Zi Ling...you know everything?"
"Sister Liu, let's talk?" Zi Ling's mother said softly, "We are here to solve the problem, right?"
...
Sitting down in an empty classroom.
Liu Susu said in surprise: "You...what did you say? Do you want to buy the property rights of the welfare home on this part of my head?"
"What's wrong, can't it work?" Zi Ling's mother nodded, "Don't worry, I will buy it from you based on the part you could get, and it won't cost you."
"I don't mean that!" Liu Susu quickly waved her hand and said, "Hey, I'll do this... I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I've never been ashamed of you in my life. Last time I went to see you, I just gritted my teeth... I have no shame to see the dean, nor do I have no shame to see you. I... I'll kneel down for you."
"Sister Liu, shouldn't we do these things?" Zi Ling's mother grabbed Liu Susu's hands and said, "Actually, this is where I grew up. In fact, if I want to demolish it, I wouldn't be willing to. Since the developer is not as good as you said, I'm not happy!"
Liu Susu cried, "If it weren't for the family... how could I bear to let it go? I'll be really shameless to see people if I stay here for most of my life."
"Stop talking about these." Zi Ling's mother shook her head and said, "Let's talk about the truth and the heart. You have made great contributions to the welfare home that has been opened until today... Come on, tell me, besides you, other people who have also obtained some property rights from the dean. What is the situation at home? If possible, I want to buy all the property rights of 30% in total first."
"How much do you want to pay for this?" Liu Susu hesitated.
Ren Ziling walked out of the Sunshine Welfare Home and was adopted by the big man from the port area, but Liu Susu knew that something seemed to have happened between them later, so she almost cut off the relationship.
"I always think of a solution." Zi Ling's mother smiled and said, "I have been working for so many years and have some savings... I will think of a solution. You can tell me what you know first."
"……Oh well."
Rumble.
Suddenly, a long thunder sounded, and the classroom suddenly turned black and white. Long shadows spread from the window of the classroom in an instant, covering Zi Ling's mother and Liu Susu.
“What’s the situation…”
Zi Ling's mother has had a different courage since she was a child. She saw that in the thunder, in the corridor outside the classroom, children with pale faces under the thunder were now sticking to the window outside the corridor, looking towards the classroom.
Rumble!
But the children outside the window suddenly disappeared.
Sister Liu seemed to be scared at this moment, but Zi Ling's mother rushed out of the classroom door. However, no figure was seen in front of and behind the corridor.
"Running quite fast?" Zi Ling's mother muttered, "What happened to those children just now?"
Liu Susu subconsciously said: "Maybe he woke up from lunch break and went to the bathroom to pass by... I didn't see their faces clearly, so I'll go and ask."
Zi Ling's mother shook her head and said, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal... Sister Liu, let's continue talking about the matter."
...
...
The houses in the welfare home are connected and then connected, and the whole opened part is in the shape of [L].
After walking out of the staff dormitory, Luoqiu and the maid came out to stroll easily to the other side of the complex building.
Entering the front of the first floor is an open space, with corridors on both sides extending over, probably with various activity rooms and other places.
"Master, this seems to be a photo of Miss Ren when she was a child."
The walls of the entrance lobby of the comprehensive building are covered with photos. The photos have been a little old and some even turn yellow... Luoqiu walked to the place where the maid discovered it.
In the photo, a girl of ten years old with a small braid is vaguely similar to Zi Ling's mother now.
Luoqiu reached out and touched it lightly on the photo.
In the world of thinking, it seems like time has passed through time and came to the moment when this photo took a photo.
It was sunny at that time, and a group of boys and girls who worked hard to sort out their simple but clean clothes were lined up quietly and nervously facing the first photo of their lives.
The camera was a second-hand product that the dean bought from somewhere... or even a third-hand product. Just press the button. The very popular [point-shoot machine] in that era was a very popular film, using a tube of film, [Kodak] brand...
"The summer of 2003, now thinking about it, twenty years have passed in a flash, and time has passed so quickly."
"Hello, Dean."
Luo Qiu slowly opened his eyes and woke up from his state of wandering in time.
