Chapter 79 I'll Treat You to Dinner
Coming out of the orphanage, Dai Qing looked at Cheng Hao and said, "I didn't realize you're quite popular with the kids."
"They are all orphans, and what they lack most is love and care. In fact, it was Pingzi who first discovered them. Later, we came to visit them from time to time and gave them gifts, so we became familiar with them."
Cheng Hao looked back at the orphanage and explained softly.
"Although life is much better now than before, we all rely on our wages to make ends meet. We don't have a lot of money, so the help we can provide is limited."
That’s true. The conditions in the city in the 1990s were barely acceptable, but it was still difficult to spend the extra money.
In many rural areas, there is still a lack of adequate food and shelter.
However, since she had promised Dean Li, Dai Qing did not delay. When they returned home, it was already six o'clock in the evening.
"Thank you for accompanying me today. I'll treat you to a meal. What do you like to eat?"
Cheng Hao was stunned, and looked at her quietly for a moment, his eyes deep, "I also have selfish motives in bringing you to the orphanage... You helped Director Li solve the problem of bedding for the children, I should thank you, I should treat you to a meal."
Although the little charlatan is a bit weird, he is indeed kind-hearted and admirable.
After arguing for a few sentences, both of them couldn't help laughing, and finally walked into a noodle shop together.
They live in the Central Plains and eat both rice and noodles, but the locals still like to eat one kind of noodle dish, that is stewed noodles, the soul of which is the soup stock.
There are three flavors of meeting, beef, mutton, and three fresh.
Dai Qing and Cheng Hao both chose three fresh dishes, plus a plate of cold bean curd and a plate of black fungus. Just like last time, all were vegetarian.
After dinner, the two of them strolled on the sidewalk. Cheng Hao looked at the indifferent little charlatan and somehow, he felt a little sorry for her.
Although he is at a lively and active age, his temperament is always indifferent.
Even those beautiful eyes were always cold and lacked the pure happiness that one should have at this age.
Think about it, she has been dependent on her grandfather since she was a child, and now she is alone, supporting a family by herself, which makes her feel lonely.
"What are your plans for custom quilts?"
"Let's go to Textile World tomorrow. We're producing in large quantities, so I think we can negotiate a wholesale price."
Textile World has a complete range of fabrics and is the most suitable place, especially in terms of price. Large quantities can get discounts and all can be negotiated.
"I'll go with you." Cheng Hao nodded. Donating was the key, so it was his duty to help.
"Aren't you going to work?" Although the security department is not busy, it is still necessary to report to work on time. Is it really okay for him to slack off so blatantly?
"I am the section chief after all. Besides, the Textile World is just behind the factory door. It won't take too much time."
The main reason was that there were a lot of people there, and a little girl like her holding money would easily attract attention, which was not very safe.
Dai Qing thought about it and didn't refuse. The two agreed to meet at the back door of the factory tomorrow morning and then parted ways.
The next morning, Dai Qing got up and put on the jeans with big pockets, a small backpack across her body, and placed her money separately to avoid being noticed by thieves.
After breakfast, I took the bus and got off at Textile World two stops later.
She had walked a few steps into the market street when someone grabbed her arm, which scared her.
"Little Master, I finally meet you again."
Dai Qing looked at her excited expression, and it took her a while to remember the older sister she met when she first came to Textile World to buy a quilt cover.
