"Shencheng Orphanage …" Hong Dali's heart was heavy as he looked at the big door sign that was peeling off.
Speaking of which, the Shencheng Orphanage was established in the 1980s. It did not have a long history. However, because the location was relatively remote, not many people knew about it. There were even fewer people who came to donate. They could only rely on the government's meager funding to maintain their basic expenses.
Tang Muxin held Hong Dali's hand tightly as she looked at him. Her hands were trembling a little, and her palms were covered in cold sweat. It was obvious that the little girl was quite nervous.
Hong Dali was kind-hearted. This could be seen from how he saved that poor child. Therefore, Han Songyang and the rest did not think too much about him coming here. They only thought that Hong Dali wanted to do some good deeds.
However, Hong Dali's feelings were probably only understood by Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei.
Such a large group of people standing at the door had already attracted the attention of the old guard. The old guard poked his head out from the guardhouse and looked at Hong Dali's group of young masters and ladies from wealthy families. He asked in fear, "Why are you all here …"
Based on his experience, with so many people here, could it be that one of the children in the orphanage had gotten into trouble …
"Sir, it's nothing. We're just here to take a look and see if there's anything we can help with. We can donate some money." Hong Dali smiled and said, "Can you let us in?"
"You're here to donate?" Hearing this, the old guard's face instantly lit up. He said, "Aiya, there aren't many young people as kind as you now. Please come in, come in." As the old man spoke, he opened the door and let Hong Dali and the others in. "Speaking of which, today is really a good day. Just now, a good middle-aged man came here and said he wanted to donate some money, hehe."
Eh? Someone came to donate?
Hong Dali was a little surprised. He looked around and soon saw a brownish-red Jaguar. He smiled and said, "Did he drive that car here? It looks like this person is quite capable. "
This Jaguar was the 2015 XJL 3.0 SC four-wheel flagship business version. The market price was more than 1.4 million. Therefore, Hong Dali was not joking when he said this person was capable.
"That's right. He's chatting with the Dean now. Please come in." The guard brought them into the courtyard. The two of them looked around as they walked. This nursing home was only a three-story building, and the courtyard was only about 1,000 square meters. It was no exaggeration to say that the environment of a slightly better kindergarten was better than this orphanage.
At this time, there were about seven or eight children playing in the yard. The oldest of these children was about ten years old, and the youngest was only three or four years old. Some of them were squatting on the ground, making clay figurines, and some were playing with glass balls. The rapidly developing electronic society of the 21st century seemed to be completely isolated from this courtyard by the wall, leaving not a single trace of it.
Actually, the reason was very simple. He had no money.
Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei felt their hearts ache. Tang Muxin was born into a wealthy family and had lived a luxurious life since she was young. Her family had invested at least three million in her. She had learned everything from piano, dance, vocal music, English, and so on. Although Li Nianwei's family background was a little poor, it was still considered a well-off family. At least, she did not lack food and clothing.
But now, seeing the place where Hong Dali grew up …
"Little brother, come quickly. Big sister will buy you some delicious food, okay?" Tang Muxin's heart twitched. Looking at the children in the courtyard, her eyes were a little wet, and her nose felt a little sour. She really wanted to move two supermarkets into the courtyard now.
"Big sister, you're so beautiful." Seeing that Tang Muxin was beautiful and gentle, the group of children looked at them from afar. Although the oldest of them had a longing look in his eyes, he still shook his head. "Grandma said that we can't just accept things from strangers. Grandma also said that we should study hard and buy whatever we want when we earn money in the future! "
"Hehe, such good children." Li Nianwei smiled and shook her head. She did not force these children to accept their help. After all, with Hong Dali here, these children would definitely have a good life in the future.
Seeing that these children were so sensible at such a young age, Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei were even more certain that Hong Dali had always been pretending to be carefree. Actually, Hong Dali was really very smart. He definitely would not be blind.
Now that they had arrived, they were not in a hurry to help these children. According to Hong Dali's plan, the entire orphanage would be moved away in the future. Naturally, there was no need to rush now.
The group followed the guard upstairs. When they passed by a few rooms, Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei subconsciously glanced around. There were a few children doing their homework in the room. Their expressions were very serious. Obviously, they knew that they had no money, no power, no backing, and no relatives to help them. In the future, after they succeeded in their studies, finding a stable job might be their only way out.
Hence, they were very serious in their studies.
Tang Muxin and Li Nianwei looked at each other and saw the sympathy and relief in each other's eyes.
Now that Hong Dali was here, the future of these children would probably be settled.
"Such good children." Han Songyang sighed at the back. "I suddenly want to arrange a position for them in my family's company. It can be considered a part-time job. They can also make up for it."
"That's a good idea." Gu Feifei expressed her appreciation for Han Songyang's idea. "I'm seeing you in a different light now, haha."
The few of them laughed together.
Soon, they reached the director's office. Just as they reached the door, Hong Dali heard a low voice. "Director Wu, I wonder how the child I fostered here is now?"
An old female voice sounded. "You're talking about Dali, right? Sigh, this child was a good child. He had just entered university and had a bright future. Unfortunately, in order to save two children, he got into a car accident and died. Sigh … "
"Ah? Died?! "The male voice said in surprise," He died in a car accident? Sigh, what a pity. My brother and his wife have both passed away. He's my only flesh and blood left. He actually died too … His name is Dali? Hong Dali? "
Hearing this, just as everyone was about to enter the room, Hong Dali suddenly froze.
Because he heard what the middle-aged man said — he said his brother's flesh and blood? His name was Hong Dali? Wasn't that him?
The few of them saw Hong Dali's expression and knew that something was obviously going on. They instantly stopped. The guard did not notice and directly knocked on the door. "Director Wu, there are a few young people here to take a look and donate some money."
"Oh? There's such a thing? Why aren't you inviting them in? " The old female voice was obviously a little shocked. She hurriedly said, "What's going on today? Why are there so many good people here, hehe …"
Soon, the door opened, and an old face appeared.
It was a very kind face. Full of wrinkles, white hair, a hunched figure, and even her legs were bent due to her age. But all this could not hide the impression this old granny left in everyone's hearts.
Her smile was so kind and gentle. Everyone could even feel the sincerity of those poor and adorable orphans when they surrounded her and called her granny.
"Please come in, please come in." Once Granny Wu saw Hong Dali and the others, she was stunned for a while. Then, she hurriedly invited everyone in. "Aiya, this place is small and there's nothing much. Please don't mind."
"Hello, Granny Wu. My name is Hong Dali." Looking at Granny Wu who had raised him for more than 20 years, Hong Dali subconsciously wanted to jump into her arms. Unfortunately, he remembered his identity and resisted the urge.
"Dali?" Granny Wu held Hong Dali's arm with both hands and looked left and right. Finally, she shook her head. "Sigh, you're called Hong Dali too. We used to have someone called Hong Dali here. Ah, right, it's this gentleman. He was the one who sent Hong Dali here. Hehe, the two of you are really fated to meet here. "
At this moment, Hong Dali had a million questions in his mind. But when he looked at the gentleman, he resisted the urge.
That gentleman was quite good-looking. He must have been a handsome guy when he was young. It was just that there was a scar on his face that ruined his overall beauty. But it made him look more manly.
This person left a deep impression on everyone. Hong Dali stretched out his hand. "Hello, hello. My name is Hong Dali. How should I address you, Uncle?"
"Hehe, hello. Speaking of which, we are really fated." The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and shook Hong Dali's hand. "My surname is Liu. You can call me Uncle Liu."
"Hehe, hello, Uncle Liu." Hong Dali smiled and casually asked, "Uncle Liu, did you send a child here before? I heard that the child's name is Hong Dali too? "
"Yes." Uncle Liu nodded. Then, he sighed and said, "That's the child of my sworn brother. Sigh. That sworn brother of mine was considered young and promising. But he passed away in an accident. His wife had a difficult labor because of this. Both of them passed away on the same day, leaving behind only one child. Now, that child is gone too … "
"Fate makes fools of people …" Granny Wu softly sighed and secretly wiped her tears.
Hearing this, Hong Dali's heart skipped a beat. His tears almost flowed out. But he managed to hold them back. Then, he carefully asked, "Then, Uncle Liu, what's the name of your sworn brother? Can you tell me? Well, my name is Hong Dali. I want to pay my respects to him. It can be considered as accumulating some merit. "
"Well, there's nothing I can't say." Uncle Liu smiled and said, "His name is Hong Haoming. His wife's name is Lan Xiangqin."
