Chapter 97 Still rising?
Gao Hongfei looked at him for a moment and said, "You speak first."
"Well, after this orphanage is built, can Little Shitou also live in it?"
Gao Hongfei was stunned. "Are you talking about him?" He pointed at the child in Yue Chai's arms and asked.
Yue Chai nodded and said quickly and clearly, "This child has no parents and no relatives to take care of him. He meets the adoption requirements of the Salesian Home."
Xiao Shitou is four years old this year, younger than Chaochao.
He was a posthumous child. His father was a hunter. He fled to Shangliu Village with his parents when he was a child. Later, his father died, and he depended on his mother for life.
But his family had no land, so he didn’t get married until he was in his twenties.
Later, his wife became pregnant, but he met with disaster while hunting in the mountains and did not return alive. Only his mother and his pregnant wife were left at home.
When Xiao Shitou was born, the family became increasingly poor without a strong laborer. Xiao Shitou's mother couldn't stand it anymore, so one night, she packed up her bags, took all her money and ran away.
No one knows where she ran off to. Her parents' home is in the faraway mountains. Her marriage to Shitou's father was almost like selling her to their family, so it is very likely that she will not return to her parents' home.
But she has not been heard from since.
Only Shitou and his grandmother were left at home. The old lady had experienced several major setbacks, including the death of her husband, the death of her son, and the escape of her daughter-in-law. Her spirit was no longer as good as before. In addition, her health was not very good during her early years of escaping. She just tried her best to hold on, but finally passed away in the first half of this year.
Now, Xiao Shitou is the only one left at home.
Fortunately, when Shitou's father was still alive, he helped Yue Chai, so Yue Chai took good care of Shitou.
But no matter how much he took care of the child, it was impossible for him to take him home. He had a family to support, and the most he could do was give Shitou something to eat.
During the past six months, this child has been eating at hundreds of homes.
Like Chaochao, he was a child who was not well fed and clothed, and still had to work despite his small body.
Even because Shitou's father died before he was born, and later his grandmother also died, a small number of people in the village regarded this child as someone with a bad fate and kept their distance from him.
The only thing better than Chao Chao is that no one will beat or scold him at will.
But his life was also difficult, especially since he lived alone in a house at the foot of the mountain, far away from other people in the village. He was often too scared to sleep at night.
In other words, their family really has no assets, otherwise the gangsters would have robbed their house clean.
But even if no one went to steal anything, Yue Chai knew that someone had secretly taken notice of Xiao Shitou and wanted to sell him for money.
Fortunately, Chaochao's incident broke out and Shangliu Village became the focus of everyone's attention. In addition, with Lord Liang in charge of the village, no villain dared to do evil here, let alone harm Xiao Shitou.
Even many villagers in Shangliu Village began to believe that good will be rewarded after experiencing what happened with Chaochao. They have been much nicer to Xiao Shitou these days and even share some of the delicious food they cook with him.
The little guy has finally grown a little bit of weight.
But this is not a long-term solution after all. The best way is to find a suitable place for him to stay, such as the Chaoyang Charity Home in front of him.
After Yue Chai finished telling Xiao Shitou's life story, he looked at Gao Hongfei eagerly.
The latter and Liang Wei looked at each other. His Majesty had set strict standards for the admission conditions of Chaoyang Charity Home.
They want to do good deeds and put them into practice. They are afraid that some people will take advantage of the orphanage.
If the people who should be helped are not helped, and instead those with ulterior motives benefit, then this good deed is meaningless.
The situation of the child in front of him should be true. With Yue Chai's courage, he would not be so bold as to deceive him and Lord Liang.
Gao Hongfei's eyes fell on Xiao Shitou again. The latter seemed to be very afraid of them and tightly grasped Yue Chai's sleeve. This expression was exactly the same as when Chao Chao first saw Jian Yunsang in Tianmu.
Gao Hongfei was stunned, discussed it with Liang Wei, and finally nodded.
Yue Chai exhaled slowly, and looked at Xiao Shitou with eyes full of relief.
The Chaoyang Charity Home is different from the charity homes in other places. It was established in the name of Chao Chao and is particularly valued by the current emperor. Almost all the people in Daqi are supervising it, and no one dares to embezzle or do anything petty.
Besides, this charity home was located in Shangliu Village. From what he heard from County Magistrate Gao, he knew that the helpers to be hired would also be familiar people - the families of Lin Lan and Daya.
These people have helped Chao Chao and their character is impeccable. Asking them to work in the orphanage will allow them to earn some salary and improve their family's lives, and it will also make people feel more at ease.
Yue Chai thought that Xiao Shitou would definitely not suffer any harm in such an orphanage.
He is in a familiar environment, has enough food and clothes, and will definitely grow up safely.
At worst, he, as the village chief, would come over from time to time and would definitely not let him be bullied.
Little Shitou was still confused and didn't quite understand, so Yue Chai squatted down and patiently explained to him.
Little Stone looked at him from time to time, then looked at Gao Hongfei and the other man, then looked up at the sky, and finally nodded as if he understood.
At the moment he nodded, Chao Chao in the sky was suddenly stunned again and his eyes widened in surprise.
Jian Yunsang raised his eyes and glanced at her, a little surprised, "What's wrong?"
Chao Chao exhaled, glanced at her grandmother and uncle who were chatting, and whispered, "The energy has increased by another sixty."
Jian Yunsang was stunned.
sixty??
so much?
He Nanzhou had already found an opportunity to tell Jian Yunsang about the five-point increase in energy value.
How long has it been, only about ten minutes, and the price has gone up again?
And the amount has increased by as much as sixty, which is thirty more than the last time when he helped Gong Xingwen escape from Aunt Cui's PUA.
She hesitated for a moment and asked, "Or is it the sizzling sound, as if it comes from far away?"
Chao Chao nodded, "Yeah."
Jian Yunsang narrowed his eyes, thinking that the energy surge might be caused by the same thing.
When she saw Yu Zimo coming to play with Chaochao, she pushed Chaochao to let her go over. After sitting quietly on the sofa for a while, she went out to find He Nanzhou who was on the phone handling business matters.
The latter had just hung up the phone and was about to come in, but when he saw Jian Yunsang's serious expression, he stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"
Jian Yunsang told the story in a low voice, and He Nanzhou couldn't help but frown.
"Where does this energy value come from?"
The price kept rising, making them feel more and more uncertain.
Jian Yunsang, "I, I suddenly have a pretty outrageous idea, do you want to listen to it?"
