The location of the orphanage was a bit remote, and it took Mu Hongying a long time to drive there.

She looked at the surrounding environment with some confusion. It was hard to imagine that there was an orphanage here!

Logically speaking, this kind of welfare institution should have local support!

Bai Li saw Mu Hongying's confusion, and she explained: "This orphanage was built with the money of the director himself!"

"Because there are always abandoned children all the way around here, so the dean always takes these poor children home."

"I raised him up, and then I harvested more and more, and it became what it is now!"

"Although you may not have heard of the dean's name, the villages around here know his deeds."

“Many people came to the back and even dropped their children directly at the dean’s doorstep.”

Bai Li said with a sigh.

"So that's it..."

Mu Hongying looked at the dilapidated door and frowned.

Unexpectedly, this dean is actually a very kind person!

"This villa is the dean's own property. She was originally very rich!"

"It's just that I'm getting older, and the company run by the dean accidentally went bankrupt a few years ago, so my life has become more and more difficult since then!"

Bai Li said with a sigh.

She recalled her earlier conversation with the dean.

"Grandma, are these things really going to be sold? Isn't this your treasure?"

At that time, the company was going bankrupt and the orphanage was running low on funds. Grandma took out some of her treasured gold and silver jewelry and prepared to pawn them to alleviate the urgent need.

Bai Li was the oldest child in the orphanage at that time, and she was also the only one who knew the truth. The other children were still immersed in the happiness of the past.

"Grandma, actually it doesn't matter if the food is reduced! We..."

"Silly boy, it's time for you to grow up! Don't say such things."

She still remembers what the dean said.

She said: "These are just a few pieces of glass, not really a treasure!"

"You are grandma's biggest treasure!"

......

"Bai Li! Bai Li!"

Mu Hongying shook Bai Li's little head and shouted.

"Why are you in a daze again?"

"It's okay! I remembered something."

"Let's go in and have a look!"

Bai Li calmed down and pulled Mu Hongying into a familiar house.

"I am back!"

She shouted loudly using her usual voice.

But no one in the yard answered.

Bai Li was a little confused for a moment. She looked at the time. Grandma should be basking in the sun in the yard at this time!

She turned her head and looked at Mu Hongying, smiled and said, "Maybe I was busy and didn't hear you!"

She was about to take Mu Hongying to the yard.

But then a little girl about 16 years old suddenly ran over in a hurry. She looked at Bai Li with a silly smile on her lips.

"Bai...Bai Li! Bai Li!"

She was smiling, but her behavior seemed a little silly.

"I'm back! Where are the others! Why aren't they here?"

"There's also the dean!"

Bai Li smiled and touched the little girl's head, and then spoke softly.

"At...in the back!"

"Dean, you're sleeping..."

The little girl said with a smile.

"Take me there!" Bai Li said, rubbing her head.

The little girl stood still, groping for something in her pocket.

Bai Li didn't rush her, he just looked at her quietly.

After a long time, she took out two pieces of candy from her pocket, handed one to Bai Li, and the other to Mu Hongying.

"Eat candy," she said with a smile.

"it is good!"

Bai Li took the candy from her hand. It was a very ordinary wedding candy. This kind of candy is always given out when there are happy events and wedding banquets around.

The little girl was reluctant to eat it and always kept it.

Bai Li opened the candy packaging and put it in his mouth.

The little girl looked at Bai Li eagerly, then asked with a smile: "Is it delicious?"

"delicious!"

Bai Li responded with a smile, his beautiful eyes narrowed into a straight line, and he did not hesitate to praise him.

The little girl immediately laughed and was even happier than eating it herself.

Then she turned to look at Mu Hongying.

Mu Hongying also followed Bai Li's example and ate the candy, then smiled and praised it.

"Okay! Take us to see the others!"

Bai Li said with a smile.

"Ok!"

The little girl led the way, with Bai Li and Mu Hongying following behind.

"She had meningitis as a child, so she was mentally retarded."

"Probably only has the IQ of a child of a few years old."

"But there are some things she remembers better than anyone else!"

Bai Li turned his profile picture to Mu Hongying and explained: "She was very kind to me when I was a child and always took care of me! Although I am older than her, I am really not good enough in some aspects!"

Bai Li rambled on about some things from his childhood. Mu Hongying listened attentively, her eyes falling gently on Bai Li's face.

The wind blew up the fallen leaves in the yard, and the ancient trees that seemed to stand tall when I was a child now looked obviously a little old.

Fallen leaves are falling, but the people under the tree have changed. Only the old tree has always been here.

There were chirping children standing in the backyard, and they were constantly playing and playing.

Sitting on the rocking chair next to the yard was an elderly woman, her face covered with wrinkles.

But his mental aura is still good, just like Bai Li's impression!

"Grandma! I'm back!"

Bai left his mouth and shouted.

The old man came to Bai Li's side in almost a moment. She looked at Bai Li with a smile and said, "You have grown up! You have become so beautiful!"

"Who is this......"

"This is my girlfriend! Looks good!"

Bai Li looked at the old man in front of him, and heat suddenly surged in his eyes.

But she still restrained her impulse and continued to chat with her with a smile.

"Good-looking, good-looking! What a beautiful girl!"

"We have grown up in vain..."

She rambled about the past, and Bai Li listened with a smile.

Then he kept handing out the things in his hands, and the children in the yard kept screaming in surprise.

Apparently, since the bad conditions, they have rarely had access to these foods!

Once again, a burst of joyful sounds came from the courtyard, while Bai Li sat aside and chatted with the old dean about the changes over the years.

The old dean is still the same as before, her behavior is still elegant and decent, and you can vaguely see her past style through some traces through the years.

Bai Li had a smile on her face, but where the dean couldn't see her, she held Mu Hongying's hand tightly and trembled slightly.

The sun was setting, and the golden light shone in the yard, making the shadows long and thin.

But there was a blank next to the dean.
