Jiangchuan didn't expect that the dwarf, who usually lived frugally and was reluctant to spend money, actually spent all his money here. This surprised him a little, and he couldn't help but look at Sakurai Tong.
He had asked once before. Sakurai Tong earned a lot of money, so he shouldn't have been so poor that he could only eat instant noodles and had no money to take the tram. But the dwarf got angry at him at that time, and Jiangchuan was too lazy to make himself uncomfortable.
Now that he understood the reason, Jiang Chuan smiled slightly in response to the dwarf's pleading gaze. He didn't intend to lie to anyone, but simply said matter-of-factly, "Sakurai-san has been eating on time every day recently, and all three meals a day are nutritiously balanced meals."
Fortunately, the hateful guy could talk. Ying Jing Tong immediately breathed a sigh of relief. She was afraid that Jiang Chuanhai would dig up her past and say that she ate instant noodles every day. Every time Ying Jing Tong came back, she told her mother-in-law that she ate a lot of food and did not have enough for three meals a day, for fear that her mother-in-law would worry.
Futianquan got confirmation from a third person. She smiled and said politely, "That puts my mind at ease. Tong is a stubborn child. Although I told her that I wouldn't have to worry about this place after leaving the orphanage, she still can't let go of my illness and the other children."
It seemed like a reproach, but there was no tone of blame at all, more like concern. As for Sakurai Tong, Jiangchuan took a look, but after Fukuda Izumi said so much, he didn't dare to say anything. He could only lower his head with a red face, not daring to look at him and Miyanaga Fuma.
Although the dwarf is a bit of a jerk, it must be said that he knows how to be grateful, which is his best quality. This alone makes him a friend worth making close friends with.
If he could change his temper, Sakurai Tong would have done well in school. What a pity.
"I'll go cook." Sakurai Tong couldn't stand her mother-in-law talking about her in front of Jiangchuan Hai and Miyanaga Fengjian. She sat on the chair with her butt tilted left and right. She stood up and said with a red face, "Jiangchuan-san and Miyanaga-san, please stay for dinner."
There are four children in the welfare home, and Fukuda Izumi should usually be taking care of them. But when Sakurai Tong came back, he shared the cooking work.
Just as the two were hesitating, Jiangchuan heard Futianquan also say, "It's been a long time since it's been so lively. There's no need to feel restrained here."
Futianquan said so, Jiangchuan nodded and said, "That's troublesome."
Miyanaga Fuma also nodded. Her eyes lit up when she knew she had food to eat.
Sakurai Tong went to the kitchen, and they were the only ones left in the living room. The four children from the welfare home were a little afraid of him and Gong Yongfengjian at first, but after a brief contact, they probably found that they were not bad people, and they became a little bolder.
The obvious change was that the little girl who had been talking to them before came over to him, took out a piece of candy from her small pocket, handed it to him, and said with a sweet smile, "Big brother, do you want some?"
If you reject a child's feelings, he or she will feel disappointed, so even if you don't like him or her, you have to accept it and express your desire to get along well with him or her.
Jiang Chuan took it and touched the little girl's head. He asked, "What's your name?"
"Naraku."
The little girl answered timidly, and at the same time Jiangchuan saw a hint of joy in Naraku's eyes, and his eyebrows slightly curved, unable to hide his little happiness.
When Miyanaga Fengjian saw Jiangchuan Hai having candy, she pursed her lips and asked cheerfully, "Can I have some too?"
Naraku glanced at Miyanaga Kazema with her small eyes, blinked, then nodded, and took out another piece of candy from her shirt pocket, but this was the last one in her hand, and she hesitated a little.
Since Gong Yongfeng got it indirectly, she should be treated the same as Jiang Chuan-san.
She said, "Thank you."
Jiangchuan accepted the child's kindness because he wanted to get closer to him, otherwise he would not have accepted the candy in his hand. He was surprised that Miyanaga Fengjian would take the initiative to extend his hand. Is he a child?
Jiangchuan returned the candy in his hand to Naraku and touched him on the head again to express his affection. The other three children saw his actions and believed that he was a kind big brother, so they also came over and surrounded him.
Miyanaga Kazama carelessly peeled off the candy wrapper and put it in his mouth, smiling happily as he exclaimed, "It's delicious."
…
While Sakurai Tong was making lunch, Jiangchuan and Miyanaga Fuma were chatting with Fukuda Izumi and the four children. It was also through chatting that he learned about Fukuda Izumi's physical condition. She had menopausal syndrome, a disease caused by years of hard work. In addition, her organs were slowly degenerating with age, and she needed long-term medication to maintain her health.
The welfare home doesn't have much money, that's what Jiang Chuan saw, and there are four small children who need to be taken care of, which makes the situation even worse.
Originally, Izumi Fukuda planned to hand over the four children to other welfare institutions when she could no longer bear it, and sell the house to provide part of the tuition and living expenses for Naraku, Reiko, Yusue, and Yang Lai for high school and college. But at this time, Sakurai Tong, who had already left, suddenly came back with the money she earned from working. While subsidizing the welfare home, she also bought her the medicine she needed.
Futian Quan kept praising Sakurai Tong and occasionally talked about some things from their childhood. Jiangchuan also got to know the little dwarf better - this guy was a cute, sensible and considerate child when he was a child. However, while others were growing up, the little dwarf did not grow much and his temper was getting worse and worse.
There is also a strong desire for revenge and to protect one's shortcomings.
There was a resident in the residential area who had an Akita dog. When the owner was taking the dog for a walk, he passed by the door of the welfare home and saw four little ones playing in the yard. The Akita dog, relying on the owner's power, barked a few times at the inside, which immediately scared the youngest girl, Lingzi, to tears.
At that time, Sakurai Tong came out and saw it. Without saying a word or hesitation, he rushed over and started fighting with the Akita dog. No one could pull it out or stop it. He didn't stop until the Akita dog was covered in blood and lay on the ground sobbing and begging for mercy.
Afterwards, the dog owner was afraid of getting into trouble, so he left with his dog in shame. Since then, the Akita dog never dared to pass by the door of the welfare home again. When it saw Sakurai Tong, it would lower its head and tail, and tremble all over and dare not move.
Moreover, this incident happened not too long ago. It was when Sakurai Tong was preparing for the national exam, as was the usual behavior of the dwarf.
While Sakurai Tong was busy in the kitchen, she heard the conversation between the annoying guy in the living room and her mother-in-law. Her expression changed several times. It was rare that her mother-in-law was happy today, so she didn't bother with Jiang Chuanhai.
only……
When she came out of the kitchen, she still stared at Jiang Chuanhai fiercely and reminded him in a bad tone, "It's time to eat!!"
