Chapter 470: Departure to Pengcheng
In fact, Song Shiwei had already started arranging the work at hand. There were many things to do in the hotel, and she had to handle them one by one to avoid any trouble.
Knowing that her mother was anxious, she quickly booked a train ticket to Pengcheng for the next day as soon as the summer vacation started.
When Shen Xiu'e returned home after a busy day at the company, she had just picked up Xiaowu, Xiaoliu, Xiaoqi and Xiaoba.
"Weiwei, can you take your parents there by yourself? How about I give Tingyue a call to see if he has time? Let him go with us! Otherwise, I'll always be a little worried!"
Song Shiwei packed her luggage and waved with a smile.
"Mom, don't worry. What era is this? There aren't that many bad people. There's nothing to worry about!"
But Shen Xiu'e was still worried.
"How about letting your dad go with you?"
Song Shiwei laughed a little.
"Mom, no, really no, my dad still has to help you pick up Little Five, Little Six, Little Seven, and Little Eight! You can't handle four kids by yourself!"
Now, Xiaocao also goes to work at Song Shiwei Hotel. It is impossible for her to let her be a nanny for her family for the rest of her life!
Besides, Zhou Cheng and Xiao Cao are in a relationship, and she definitely hopes that they can live happily.
Xiaocao has always been a child with low self-esteem. If she always works as a nanny in their family, she will feel even more inferior.
It would be better to let her go out to work and let her discover the value of her life.
In fact, Song Shiwei is quite optimistic about her. This child is sensible, obedient and hardworking.
At the beginning, she asked her to go to the housekeeping department of Xingfu Hotel to gain some experience. Who knew that this girl really lived up to her expectations. In the past two years, she was promoted from an employee to a supervisor, and now to the housekeeping manager.
Now, the entire housekeeping department is under her management.
She had actually watched the child grow in confidence step by step.
Now she is wearing a professional suit and high heels. Who can associate her with the little grass from the past?
Even when her sister Xiaoyun came last time, she was surprised to see the changes in her sister.
Of course, she felt relieved when Song Shiwei handed over the housekeeping department to her.
Just then, Xinxin came in from outside the door.
She just heard the conversation between the two outside.
So, as soon as I came in, I smiled and said, "Mom, are you and grandma and grandpa going to Pengcheng? Take me with you! Anyway, it's summer vacation now, and I don't have homework, so I want to go out with you!"
When Shen Xiu'e heard this, she couldn't help but shake her head.
"Oh, no, no, what are you going to do? You're already causing trouble for your mom. It's not safe outside. Grandma was already worried about your mom taking your grandparents out by herself, and now with you, I'm even more worried!"
Xinxin was afraid that her mother would not let her go, so she just hugged Shen Xiu'e's arm and acted coquettishly.
"Grandma, I'm that old now, I'm sixteen, not a child anymore. Look at my sister Xiao Cui, she was only a teenager back then, she already followed my mom to do business, and later she followed Brother Gousheng to travel around the country! Grandma, I'm not a flower in a greenhouse. Besides, I've graduated from high school, and if I'm admitted to a university, I'll go out to study. I'm going to apply for Haishi Medical University, and by then, can you and my mom still go with me?"
Shen Xiu'e was just about to say, "You are going to college, is that the same as going on a long journey?"
Then Song Shi smiled and said, "Mom, let her go with you. Isn't there an old saying? Reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles! Xinxin has never been out before, so let her go out for a walk!"
Xinxin nodded quickly.
"Yes, grandma, look at my aunt. She went to teach in the mountainous area right after she graduated from college! I really admire my aunt!"
Hearing her mention Song Shimiao, Shen Xiu'e couldn't help but glance at Song Shiwei and sighed deeply.
"Ah, speaking of this child, it really makes me feel sorry for her. A little girl ran so far. I heard that the place she went to is full of mountains. If she wants to go out to buy something, she has to climb over several mountains. The children there have never left the mountains in their entire lives. Supplies are in short supply, and even ordinary daily life cannot be guaranteed! Even in this day and age, there are still people who can't eat and starve to death."
"No wonder your mother is worried about me. If it were me, I'd be so anxious! This kid hasn't even come back for the New Year in these years. I don't know what life is like over there!"
Xinxin pursed her lips when she heard this.
"Mom, grandma, and my aunt are so great!"
She felt moved just by listening to it.
She had also heard about the situation in mountainous areas. She heard that there was a severe shortage of teachers there. In some places, not to mention teachers, there weren't even schools.
When children grow up, they have to help with housework and pay for school. Who would be willing to pay for their children to go to school? Wouldn't it be nice to help with some housework?
Thinking about the news she heard, she admired Song Shimiao so much.
Song Shiwei also thinks that her sister is very capable.
This time, she can really go and take a look. If possible, she can find a way to donate a Hope Primary School to them.
It can help more children afford to read and read good books.
Get out of the mountains and give back to society.
He turned his head to look at Xinxin beside him.
I couldn't help but laugh.
"Mom, I've made up my mind. Let Xinxin go with you. Let her go out for a walk and have a look!"
Look at the rapid economic development in the south, look at the rapid changes in the motherland, look at the difficulties faced by children in mountainous areas, and think about how hard it is to live your life today.
These children, having been with me, have never lacked food or nice clothes to wear.
They have what other children have, and they also have what other children don’t have.
No matter how rich your life is, you must never forget your original intention.
Although Song Shiwei knew that these children had positive values, they had never experienced the sufferings of the world.
This time, I can take the opportunity to let Xinxin go with me before she goes to college, so that she can broaden her horizons and experience the difficulties of children in mountainous areas.
Seeing her say this, what else did Shen Xiu'e have to say?
I couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, okay, I can't argue with you two. You two are just like mother and daughter. You both have your own way of talking!"
When Xinxin saw that she agreed, she immediately cheered with joy.
"Yeah!! That's great!! Thank you grandma!!"
After saying that, he held her head and gave her a kiss on the face.
Dear Shen Xiu'e laughed but did not forget to give instructions.
"Be sure to be safe this time and listen to your mom! Help mom take good care of your grandparents. Your grandparents are old and the journey is long. I'm afraid they can't handle it! Since you want to study medicine in the future, I'll leave the responsibility of taking care of your grandparents on the road to you!"
Xinxin imitated her father and saluted Shen Xiu'e.
"Report to the commander, and ensure the mission is completed!"
This not only made Shen Xiu'e laugh, but even Song Shiwei was amused.
Early the next morning, Gousheng picked up Zhao Huili and Song Zhiyong to pick her up here.
Zhao Huili was so happy to see Xinxin going there too.
"Okay, okay, our family is on holiday too, come with us and go out for a walk!"
