Chapter 398 Adoption, Go Fiasco
As soon as the van arrived at the gate of the orphanage, the dean Xie Yajing came out with the teacher to greet her.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Sun, hello, I am the director of the orphanage."

Seeing Zhou Guofu and Sun Yi with extraordinary temperament, Xie Yajing immediately went up to greet them and greeted them very politely.

She already knew that one of them was a professor and the other was a high school teacher, so when she called Sun Yi, she called her Teacher Sun directly.

Zhou Guofu and Sun Yi also hurriedly greeted: "President Xie, hello, this time I really trouble you."

Xie Yajing said: "No trouble, we are very grateful for you coming so far to support the work of our orphanage, Mr. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, let's go in, first go to my office, I will introduce our orphanage to you and the situation of the children."

Zhou Guofu and Sun Yi looked at each other, and then Sun Yi said, "Okay, then let's go in."

Zhou Guofu and Sun Yi followed Xie Yajing into the orphanage. Now is the time for the children to move freely. Their eyes quickly scanned the children playing in the open space. Take one of them and leave.

When they came to Xie Yajing's office, there were only the three of them in the office, and Xie Yajing didn't beat around the bush, and directly asked the doubts in her heart.

"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Sun, I already know about your situation, but I am very surprised. A family like yours can go to a better institution for adoption. Why did you come to our orphanage?"

During this period, there were a lot of orphans in the country, which led to a lot of orphanages, and there were naturally differences between orphanages.

After all, Daishan is only a county seat, and their orphanage is very ordinary. Compared with those orphanages in big cities, it must be far inferior.

Zhou Guofu didn't speak, but Sun Yi spoke.

"Dean Xie, to tell you the truth, we have actually been to many orphanages, but we have not found a suitable child."

Xie Yajing's expression changed slightly, and she asked cautiously: "Then what kind of conditions do you two need?"

Hearing Sun Yi's words, she had already figured out the reason to some extent. It must be that these two people have higher requirements for their children. Otherwise, they would not have gone to many orphanages and found no suitable children.

But on the contrary, she felt relieved a lot. Since the two visited many orphanages, it meant that they really wanted to adopt.

The biggest problem may be that they have relatively high requirements for adopted children.

But this is also normal. These two are high-quality talents, and it is only natural that they have requirements for adopted children.

Children in orphanages may not be able to choose adoptive families, but adoptive families are qualified to choose their children.

It's just that she still knows about her own children, so she doesn't have much confidence.

Sun Yi did not hesitate, and directly stated her conditions.

"Dean Xie, we do have some conditions, but don't worry, if we can find a suitable one, we are willing to donate to the orphanage as much as we can."

There is no free lunch in the world, and the husband and wife who are teachers and professors are very aware of this, so they promised benefits before putting forward conditions.

In most cases, welfare homes rely on donations from the society and support from the government. Families who adopt children will make donations, which are also public welfare.

But since Sun Yi mentioned it emphatically, it means that their donation must be extraordinary.

"I'll talk about this later, Mr. Sun, let me talk about your requirements first, so that I can screen them for you."

Sun Yi continued: "Our husband and wife want a child very much, but there are some conditions. First of all, the child we want cannot be disabled."

The disabled children were excluded at once, but Dean Xie was already mentally prepared and nodded calmly.

"no problem."

"Secondly, the children we want to adopt are preferably orphans without any relatives. You should also understand our concerns."

"understand."

"Also, we don't want to adopt children with unknown origins or problems. As for the others..."

Xie Yajing's self-cultivation is very good, even though Sun Yi said a lot of demands, she didn't show any impatient expression, she still listened very seriously.

She didn't speak until Sun Yi finished speaking.

"Mr. Sun, if you follow your requirements, there may be fewer children in our orphanage for you to choose from."

Sun Yi: "It's okay, this kind of thing also needs to pay attention to fate, maybe your courtyard just happens to have a child we are satisfied with."

Xie Yajing replied with a smile: "Yes, no matter which child you two choose, it will be very happy for him."

"In this way, I will first select the materials of eligible children and let you take a look at them first. After reading the materials, we will go to see the children. What do you think?"

Both Zhou Guofu and Sun Yi nodded in agreement.

"We have no opinion."

So Xie Yajing began to choose from a pile of materials, but soon she raised her head and asked: "By the way, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Sun, I forgot to ask, do you want to adopt a boy or a girl?"

Sun Yi replied without hesitation: "Boy."

On the contrary, Zhou Guofu glanced at his wife and said, "If there is one who meets the requirements, a girl is also fine."

Xie Yajing said: "I understand, just wait for a while, it will be fine soon."

It was said to be very fast, but it took more than ten minutes for her to integrate the appropriate personnel information, and then handed it to Zhou Guofu and Sun Yi.

"Two, there are thirteen documents in total here, six boys and seven girls, please look at their basic information first."

Because of the age, there are obviously more girls than boys in the orphanage, especially in such a small county.

Zhou Guofu and Sun Yi took the documents, leaned head to head, and looked at it seriously.

While they were watching, they discussed in a low voice. After watching for more than half an hour, the two of them finally read all the materials.

After reading it, the two of them already knew that the thirteen children were all under six years old, and the youngest was just over two years old.

"Dean Xie, can we see the children now?" Sun Yi asked softly.

Xie Yajing: "Of course, I will ask the teacher to call these children over now, and you can communicate slowly."

Afterwards, she took the two of them to the classroom, and asked the teacher to call the dozen or so children over.

After seeing the children, Zhou Guofu and Sun Yi began to communicate with the children, mainly Sun Yi was talking, while Zhou Guofu was watching from the side.

Zhou Guofu watched his wife communicate with the children with a smile on her face, and her face was also full of smiles. After running around for a while, he saw his wife's determination. She really wanted to adopt a child.

However, seeing these children scrambling to express themselves one by one, their faces full of anticipation and longing, he felt particularly uncomfortable in his heart.

In the past year, he has seen too many children and their disappointed eyes. Whenever this happens, he can't bear it.

So Zhou Guofu quietly walked out of the classroom and stood outside. Zhou Guofu looked at the children playing. He saw many children curiously looking at him and staring at him, which made him even more uncomfortable.

He could read the eyes of these children, it was longing, but he couldn't do anything.

But he has already made a decision, even if he doesn't find a suitable child later, he will distribute the things bought in the van to these children.

The reason why they hired a van to come here was because they bought too many things and it was inconvenient to take a car, and these things were all prepared for the orphanage.

After taking a few steps around the orphanage, he found that the conditions in this orphanage were really not that good, at least among the orphanages he had been to, the conditions in this orphanage were relatively poor.

When Zhou Guofu walked to a corner, he was surprised to find that there was a child sitting there alone.

Unlike other noisy kids, this kid was actually very quiet, sitting at the table, not knowing what he was doing.

The curious Zhou Guofu walked over quietly, only to find out after walking in that the child was actually playing chess, or Go, and he was using black and white pieces at the same time.

After approaching, Zhou Guofu could see clearly that the child was only about five or six years old. When he approached, he even looked up at him, but soon he was immersed in Go again.

This made Zhou Guofu even more curious. He has been to so many orphanages, but he has rarely seen children who can play Go.

I thought the kid was just pretending, but after a few minutes, his expression changed.

"This, this kid, he actually knows how to play Go, and..."

Zhou Guofu, who is proficient in Go, was also shocked because one person held black and white pieces at the same time, and he played them back and forth, because this child played very well.

He had gradually forgotten who was playing chess, but stared at the chessboard seriously, thinking about how he would move if it were him.

Zhou Chen got off with himself for a while, seeing that the middle-aged man behind him hadn't left yet, he couldn't help frowning.

He also saw this middle-aged man when he entered the orphanage.

A pair of strange couples arrive, and if you think about it carefully, you will know their purpose.

It's just that this man doesn't choose people, what is he doing behind him?
But before he could speak, Zhou Guofu behind him couldn't help but ask: "Little friend, playing chess alone is so boring, do you want uncle to play chess with you?"

"you?"

Zhou Chen glanced at him calmly. Although this man looked a bit refined, he didn't think that this man's Go level was higher than his own.

"Hey."

Zhou Guofu, who was being seduced, became anxious when he saw Zhou Chen's eyes. This kid looks down on me?

"My little friend, uncle eats more salt than you eat. Today uncle will teach you how to play Go."

Zhou Chen put away the black and white pieces expressionlessly, and then pushed the black pieces to the opposite side, the meaning was obvious.

Anyway, playing alone is also playing, since this person wants to play with you, then play with him, it is a rare pleasure in the orphanage.

There happened to be two stools here. Before, Dean Xie would sit and play with Zhou Chen, and Zhou Guofu sat down in front of Zhou Chen.

"I'm an elder, how can I play first, the black stone is for you, and the white stone is for me."

Zhou Guofu couldn't help but push Hei Zi in front of Zhou Chen, and Bai Zi in front of himself.

"it is good."

Zhou Chen didn't refuse either, and after answering, he picked up a sunspot and placed it on the chessboard.

Seeing the serious expression on Zhou Chen's little face, Zhou Guofu couldn't help laughing. He has been to many orphanages and seen many strange children, but this is the first time that Zhou Chen is as interesting as Zhou Chen. See you.

Although he can see that Zhou Chen can play Go, and he is still at a certain level, he is still very confident. He has been learning Go for more than 20 years. Isn't it easy to deal with a kid of a few years old?

The idea is beautiful, but the reality is skinny.

Ten minutes later, Zhou Guofu began to sweat on his forehead. You must know that it is already autumn, especially in the morning, when the weather is even cooler.

He was holding a sunspot in his hand, but he didn't drop it for a long time. He couldn't remember how many times he was so hesitant.

At this moment, he felt extremely embarrassed.

A dignified university professor was stumped by a child playing Go, especially when he said the phrase 'I eat more salt than you eat' just now, which made him even more ashamed and flustered.

Looking at the middle-aged man who had been driven into desperation, Zhou Chen didn't show any pride in victory, but an unconscious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

This person's Go level is much better than Dean Xie's, but compared with him, there is still a gap.

"Uncle, do you want to come down?"

Zhou Guofu blushed, and he put the chess piece back depressed. After thinking for so long, he knew that he was in a desperate situation, and even if he continued reluctantly, he would only lose even worse.

After adjusting his form, Zhou Guofu couldn't help but asked Zhou Chen curiously: "Little friend, who did you learn Go from?"

"Auntie Dean."

Zhou Guofu was shocked when he heard the words, that the kind-hearted director of the orphanage actually has such a good chess skill?

"Your dean is so powerful, you seem to like her very much?"

Zhou Chen: "Of course, the dean is the best person in the world to me."

Indeed, after coming to this world for a few months, only Dean Xie cared about him the most, so he already regarded the dean's aunt as his relative in his heart.

Zhou Guofu became very interested in Zhou Chen, and he had contact with many children, so he could clearly see that Zhou Chen was different.

From Zhou Chen playing chess here alone, it can be seen that he should be a relatively lonely person, but he has a very high IQ, otherwise it would be impossible to kill him so embarrassingly with Go.

He came to adopt a child, and Zhou Chen happened to be a child in the orphanage, so he became very interested in Zhou Chen, and even had an idea in his heart.

"What's your name?"

"What?"

Zhou Chen looked at this middle-aged man vigilantly. This man came for adoption, and he suddenly asked his name, which made him wonder if this man had thought wrongly about him.

Seeing the vigilance in Zhou Chen's eyes, Zhou Guofu chuckled, the little guy was quite wary.

"Then I'll tell you my name, and you tell me yours, how about that?"

"Ha ha."

Zhou Chen responded with a disdainful sneer, really treating me like a three-year-old kid.

He was not interested in talking to Zhou Guofu. If he was thinking about how to leave the orphanage when he first came here, he no longer had this thought.

Because the dean's aunt has already told him that she will send him to school next year, and as long as he can study well, she will continue to pay for it.

With the words of the dean's aunt, he no longer has the idea of ​​leaving for the time being, and naturally there is no need to get close to the adopter.
