Chapter 890 Xiao Bing’s Questioning

Thirteen years, exactly thirteen years!

Xiao Bing has been away from home for so long, and his relatives are getting old one by one. Whether they are the lame man, the second aunt, the fifth aunt, the sixth aunt, or the younger aunt, they are all old.

Even the youngest aunt among them is close to forty years old. Although she looks young and looks like she is only thirty-four or five years old on the surface, Xiao Bing actually knows that she should be thirty-nine years old this year. .

As for the other aunts, except for the youngest aunt, the second aunt is over sixty years old, the fifth aunt is over fifty this year, and the sixth aunt is exactly fifty years old.

When they saw Xiao Bing one by one, they were all excited with tears in their eyes. Xiao Bing was the naughtiest and rebellious one in the orphanage, but he was also their favorite. After so many years, Xiao Bing left here. After so many years, they have always cared about it in their hearts, and Xiao Bing has never forgotten his roots. If Xiao Bing had not often sent money here over the years, I am afraid they would have been unable to survive.

So when they saw Xiao Bing, they were all so excited. The most sentimental one among them, Sixth Aunt, even cried. The two children next to her didn't know what was going on when they saw this scene, and they were frightened and cried.

The most dignified second aunt said: "Okay, okay, don't scare the children. Xiaobing, we are all too excited. We have always talked about you when you have not been at home these years. I didn't expect you." You came back suddenly today and gave us such a big surprise, your second aunt's heart almost couldn't bear it."

Xiao Bing looked at his second aunt and said, "Second aunt, you should pay more attention to your health and go to the hospital for regular check-ups. No matter how healthy you are, you can't be careless."

This second aunt is just in her early sixties this year, but she looks obviously a few years older. This is actually because as the director of this orphanage, she has endured more pressure than others and has too many things to worry about. Naturally, you age faster.

The second aunt smiled and said: "I just thought, as long as I, Zhang Jinlan, can see you all become adults, then I can rest in peace even if I die. But one generation after another, if you become talents, the children of the next generation will still be able to rest in peace. I haven’t grown up, so now I can’t rest in peace even if I die!”

Xiao Bing smiled and said: "Second aunt, then you should take good care of yourself and don't always talk about whether you will die or not. Okay, don't get too excited. It makes a grown man like me want to cry!"

At this time, the aunt suddenly asked from the side: "Xiao Bing, is this child your child?"

Xiao Bing smiled and said, "She is my daughter."

Each of these aunts frowned with joy. They looked around Xiao Mingyue again and again. The more they looked, the more they liked her. The aunt, whose temperament has not completely lost her liveliness even in middle age, even picked up Xiao Mingyue and kissed her several times. While kissing, he also said: "Come on, kiss my aunt too, she is so cute, she is so jealous of me."

Others gathered around and praised him non-stop. The aunt looked at Xiao Bing and said with a smile: "You have a good conscience. You brought the baby this time. He looks so good-looking. Why didn't the baby's mother come? Well, I’ll bring it here to have a look when I get the chance!”

Xiao Bing smiled and said: "Okay, I will definitely bring her here next time. By the way, the child's name is Xiao Mingyue. I hope she is as clean and pure as the bright moon at night."

The second aunt Zhang Jinlan sighed: "Good name, good name. Well, I will stay a few more days when I come back this time, and don't leave." "Well, okay, I will check out the hotel room in a moment." At this time, other children around saw that Xiao Bing was a friend of several 'grandmas', so they all became lively again, and even came over to drag Xiao Mingyue to play together.

Xiao Mingyue went to play with the children, and Xiao Bing went to the small living room with a few aunts to chat with peace of mind.

After sitting in, Xiao Bing casually chatted about his current status. When he heard that Xiao Bing opened a noodle shop and filmed a movie, his aunt said with some excitement: "No wonder, I seemed to have seen it on TV before. When it comes to you, it’s a promotional video for some movie, but the kids around were too noisy, so I thought it was just a coincidence that we looked alike, so I ignored it. I didn’t expect it was really you. A little soldier has become a big star!"

Xiao Bing said with a smile: "What is a big star but not a big star? I just went there to experience it. I don't like that industry, so I won't do it again in the future."

"Yeah, that's fine." Fifth Auntie was still relatively conservative and said, "The entertainment industry is dark, and there are bad people everywhere. It's a good thing to stay away from the entertainment industry, and don't wade into those muddy waters."

When the aunt heard what the fifth sister said, she objected a little: "It's great to be a star, it's so beautiful, and it's so honorable. And that's where Xiaobing's temperament lies. Even in the mud, he emerges from the mud. Don’t be dyed, what are you afraid of?”

The second aunt Zhang Jinlan said with a smile: "Don't worry about the child. The child is already so old. You can decide your own affairs, right?"

"Yes, what the second aunt said is true." Xiao Bing said with a smile, "I just came in and saw the children chasing and playing, and suddenly I thought of how time passed so fast when I was young."

"Yes, time flies so fast!" Sixth Aunt said with a smile, "You talk to the children first, and I will cook some more delicious meals, and let Xiao Bing have a couple of drinks in the evening."

The aunt smiled and said: "The lame man is probably going to be very happy. He has been waiting for Xiao Bing to come back and drink with him. I remember that Xiao Bing often stole his wine when he was young. Every time you say something about him, it's just me and the lame man who will defend him." Him. Sixth sister, wait for me. I will make a few more dishes today. You are too busy to do it alone, so I will accompany you to cook."

The aunt followed her out and now only the second aunt, the fifth aunt and Xiao Bing were left in the living room.

Because the eldest aunt died, the third aunt also passed away, and the fourth aunt was taken away by her children to enjoy the blessings. The eldest aunts in the entire orphanage were the second aunt and the fifth aunt.

Xiao Bing looked at the two elders and recalled how old they were back then. He felt a little uncomfortable and said, "Second aunt, fifth aunt, how are you doing now?"

"Very good, very good." The fifth aunt said with a smile, "I have always been in good health and can still take care of these children for many years. But your second aunt has aged a bit fast these days. You are back." The time is just right, spend time with your second aunt, and make her happy."

The second aunt's eyes showed a bit of sadness, she shook her head and sighed: "It's nothing. It's normal as you get older."

Xiao Bing thought about what he heard the taxi driver say in the taxi before. Maybe the second aunt's poor mental state was related to what the driver said, because the welfare home was at a critical moment. Think about the entire Zhang family. Three generations of people have been putting all their efforts into the orphanage. They have invested all their family wealth in these children. Even if they end up being destitute, they don't care. They really love these children. From the second aunt Zhang Jinlan's grandmother, Zhang Jinlan's father, and all the way to Zhang Jinlan, they have given everything, but soon someone else will take away the hard work of three generations of you. How can Zhang Jinlan not feel uncomfortable.

The second aunt said lonely: "It doesn't matter to me, at least I'm still alive, but your aunt and third aunt are already..."

Xiao Bing sighed: "I heard the cripple already said it. I really didn't expect this to happen. I should come back early."

"Well, it's not your fault. If it hadn't been for you these years, I'm afraid this orphanage would have been unable to support itself. Oh, by the way, there are a total of twenty children in the orphanage now. The younger one is only two years old, and the eldest one is only two years old. Some are already twelve years old, and those over eight years old have been sent to school. Fortunately, primary and junior high schools now offer nine-year compulsory education, with no tuition fees. In addition to their special circumstances, the state provides subsidies. We don’t need to pay anything, otherwise we wouldn’t be able to afford the school expenses alone.”

Xiao Bing said: "The aunts have already paid enough. When they get to school, there will naturally be national policies to help them, but the living expenses and the like will still have to be spent by the aunts."

"Well, it's nothing. Those children who have already entered junior high school also wanted to work-study to help us relieve some pressure, but we didn't let it go. The most important thing for them now is to study hard, and nothing else is important. They can't do it because Because of money, these children have delayed their studies. If they want to work-study, they have to go to college anyway, not to mention that they are still classified as child labor."

Xiao Bing smiled and said: "These children are all sensible. They have this idea at a young age. This proves that the aunts teach well."

The second aunt said: "In the past ten years or so since you left, we have sent away several batches of children. When the children grew up, they all left here. Some got married and started a business, and some were still working hard outside. There are some who are good at it, and some who are not good at it, and a few of them come back often every year. Alas, maybe I am getting older now, and there are people who come and go, and sometimes I always feel reluctant to leave each child. It’s inevitable to feel uncomfortable for a few days, and it might be a good thing if you let it go.”

The fifth aunt frowned and said: "Second sister, what are you talking about? We don't understand you yet? You are reluctant to leave here. Don't worry, none of us will give up!"

After the second aunt coughed a few times, she waved her hand and said, "When Xiaobing comes back today, don't talk about these unhappy things. We must have a good chat tonight."

Xiao Bing finally couldn't help the doubts in his heart and asked: "Second aunt, what exactly happened here?"

"It's nothing." The second aunt smiled, "Even if something happens, it has nothing to do with you. You don't have to worry about it. Now that you're back, just stay here and play happily for two days."

Xiao Bing said seriously: "Second aunt, fifth aunt, I, Xiao Bing, am a child who walked out of here. It was you who raised me up. Now is the time to repay me. Don't you treat me as your own?" people?"

"How could it be?" The second aunt coughed violently again in excitement. Xiao Bing hurried over to help the second aunt pat her back gently. She is now over sixty years old, and with years of hard work, her health will inevitably deteriorate. It will drop a lot. The second aunt waved her hand and said, "It's okay. I'm okay. This orphanage is okay too."

Xiao Bing asked: "Then someone wants to occupy the welfare home. What should I say about this?"
