Chapter 179 You have to trust the country
Driving on the way to the orphanage, Li Yi couldn't figure out why the orphanage suddenly had to be demolished.

Dean Xu's orphanage is not a state-run orphanage, but a private welfare home run by Dean Xu. If you look into the difference between the orphanage and the state-run orphanage, perhaps the orphanage of Dean Xu is better than the public welfare home. Welfare homes are better off.

But Li Yi couldn't tell the reason for the specific gap.After all, Li Yi has never been to other welfare homes in the imperial capital.

So when Director Xu called this time and suddenly said that the orphanage was going to be relocated, Li Yi's first reaction was that the orphanage must have encountered some difficulties.

Otherwise, why should the orphanage be demolished for no reason?
Therefore, Li Yi's face was sombre, and the speed of the car reached the maximum speed limit of the road and drove to the orphanage.

Within half an hour, Li Yi arrived at the orphanage.

After parking the car, Li Yi walked towards the orphanage with the fruit he bought.

The weather is nice today, the spring sun is warm.

The children in the orphanage were playing in the open space.Several nursing aunts who were familiar with Li Yi saw Li Yi at a glance, and the children also noticed Li Yi's arrival. They all remembered that this brother would bring a lot of fun and delicious food every time he came, and would play with them.So they all rushed towards Li Yi.

Li Yi handed the fruits to the auntie nurse, asked the auntie nurse to distribute the items to the children, and went straight to the dean's office.

In the slightly dilapidated corridor, there was no one there, only the sound of the spring breeze caressing slightly.

Not long after, Li Yi came to Dean Xu's door, raised his right index finger, bent, and tapped the door twice.

"Come in." A slightly old voice came from the soundproof wooden door.

Li Yi pushed the door open, and the first thing he saw was Dean Xu, who was sitting behind the desk with gray temples, but compared to the last meeting, Dean Xu was much weaker this time.

"Xiao Yi is here? Sit down quickly." Dean Xu greeted enthusiastically when he saw Li Yi when he looked up.

In the transparent glass, a stream of blue-yellow amber-shaped boiling water was injected, and the heat immediately rose, and a scent of tea slowly escaped. Li Yi lightly raised his nose, knowing that this tea is not expensive, but Not crude tea dregs.

"Haha, Xiao Yi, you are blessed. I have kept this tea for a long time, and you came just after brewing it." Dean Xu smiled while twisting the beard under his chin, and took a sip of the tea after speaking, with an expression on his face enjoy.

Li Yi picked it up and took a sip, savoring the sweetness and bitterness, but lacked some tea fragrance.However, Li Yi didn't care about the quality of the tea. He put down the teacup, raised his head, and asked Dean Xu: "Dean Xu, why is the orphanage moving? Did you encounter any difficulties?"

Hearing this, Dean Xu also put down the tea in his hand, shook his hand at Li Yi, and said with a smile: "I'm getting old, and I can't manage such a big orphanage. It just so happens that several public orphanages in the imperial capital have come to me. , I can accept the children here, so I agreed."

Li Yi stared at Dean Xu for a while, then asked, "Is the orphanage short of funds?"

Dean Xu was slightly startled, looked at Li Yi for a while, and then said with a smile: "There is no orphanage that does not lack funds."

The orphanage is a bottomless pit. If the minimum requirement is to provide enough food for the children, then the funding requirement is really not much.But if you want to let your children live a slightly better life, the money is like throwing it into a black hole, and how much can be digested. Hundreds of children’s medical care, education, food, clothing, housing and transportation , every month is not a small sum.

"I can donate to the orphanage!" Li Yi said anxiously.

"Xiao Yi!" Dean Xu shouted in a deep voice, interrupting Li Yi's words, staring at Li Yi tightly with both eyes.

Li Yi was cut off by Dean Xu, and looking into Dean Xu's eyes, Li Yi, who was already a master of Chinese martial arts, faced Dean Xu as if he was facing a calm lake. He didn't know its depth or size, but felt its vastness.

"You are still young, and you are not a child who left the orphanage. You have your own business and your own family. How much energy can you devote to the orphanage? Do you know the monthly expenses of these children? Do you still have money?" You are young, so you don’t need to take on these things. And there are so many orphanages in the imperial capital, can you help them all? An old man like me should do this kind of thing.

People, as long as you can do your own duty well, it will not be easy.It is the best consolation for an old man like me that you can come and see these children once in a while. "Dean Xu looked at Li Yi with cloudy eyes, and said calmly word by word, and there seemed to be light shining in those cloudy eyes.

Li Yi looked into Dean Xu's eyes and fell silent. He understood what Dean Xu said.

Looking at Li Yi's appearance, Dean Xu nodded, and then put that kind smile on his face again, and said: "I have visited all the public welfare homes in the imperial capital, and those welfare homes I also know the dean, they are all good people, and it won’t be too bad for the children to go to the public orphanage.”

"You have to trust the country," Dean Xu said.

"I believe, I have always believed." Li Yi nodded and said calmly.

"Come, drink tea. After drinking tea, go and see Little Bailing. She has been thinking about you these days. She even made you a New Year's gift." Dean Xu said with a smile.

new Year's gift?

Li Yi was taken aback, he suddenly felt a little guilty, he hadn't come to visit Bai Bailing since he returned to Beijing, he didn't expect that there was a child in the imperial capital who prepared a New Year gift for him.

After drinking the tea in one gulp, Li Yi seemed to have made a decision.

He looked at Dean Xu and said, "Dean Xu, can I adopt Bailing?"

Hearing Li Yi's words, Dean Xu was also taken aback for a moment, with a look of astonishment on his face, his kind smile gradually faded, and then he said in a deep voice, "Yes!"

Li Yi got Dean Xu's answer and was about to be happy, but was interrupted by Dean Xu's next words.

"But I don't recommend you to do this!" Dean Xu crossed his hands on the table, looked at Li Yi seriously and said, "Xiao Yi, I want to ask you something more personal, do you have a girlfriend now?" ?”

"No." Li Yi replied truthfully, his mood gradually sank, and he knew what Dean Xu was going to say next.

"Then have you ever thought that if you adopt Little Bailing, will your future girlfriend mind? Will your wife mind when you get married? Will your parents and family mind? After you have a child, little What about Bai Ling?"

"These are all problems you will face in the future, and any of them is extremely difficult. Maybe you don't care about it now, but you must consider it for your family, your future girlfriend, and wife. Otherwise, this is An irresponsible behavior. From the procedural point of view, you have the qualifications to adopt Little Bailing, but as an elder, I hope you will consider it carefully." Dean Xu said in a deep voice.

Li Yi lowered his head, and at some point in his right hand, a silver pen twirling at his fingertips appeared.

after awhile.

Slap, the pen was held in Li Yi's hand, Li Yi stood up and said to Dean Xu, "Thank you, Dean Xu, I understand. I want to take Bailing out for a day tomorrow, can I?"

Dean Xu looked at Li Yi's face, nodded and said, "Yes, I will issue a certificate for you. Come and pick up Xiao Bailing tomorrow morning."
