Jiang Suisui thought to herself that before returning to the mountains, she had to go to Jiangcheng no matter what.
Go to the orphanage to see the director, Mother Chen, and her brothers and sisters who have not been with her for long but who take care of her.
She must also go and see the policewoman, Sister Zhou Yue, who lent a helping hand when she first arrived, and Uncle Kuang Yecheng, her father's friend.
Jiang Yan looked quietly at the little girl in front of him. She stretched out her white and tender little fingers, counting them one by one, muttering to herself. She looked cute and naive, and her seriousness was adorable no matter how you looked at her.
Well, it really is mine! It's so rare just by looking at it.
***
The day we set off for Jiangcheng was a weekend.
Jiang Yan stood in the courtyard, watching his daughter excitedly introducing the carefully prepared gifts to Old Master Jiang and the two elders of the Gu family one by one, muttering that this one was for the orphanage director, Aunt Chen, and that one was for Sister Zhou Yue, chirping like a cheerful little bird.
Following behind him were Gu Yanhe and Gu Shi, both of them had their mouths grinning from ear to ear, their eyes full of doting.
Jiang Yan felt it was an eyesore and a headache!
Since we had a daughter, our family’s schedule has become increasingly packed.
Xu Chen held his phone tightly in his hand, walked around the crowd with a flattering look on his face, and kept taking pictures of the family.
After a long time, a Cullinan and a Maybach, stuffed full of gifts, slowly started and sped towards Jiangcheng.
It was past noon, the scorching sun was shining brightly, and two cars were parked steadily at the gate of the Sunflower Orphanage in Jiangcheng.
Assistant Xu had already greeted Mother Chen in advance.
Hearing the sound of the car, Mother Chen walked quickly to the gate with a group of children, with a loving face.
Jiang Suisui looked up and saw the dilapidated orphanage with peeling walls and windows swaying in the wind. At this moment, there was no trace of its former appearance.
Jiang Yan had originally asked Xu Chen to arrange it.
A new venue was arranged for the orphanage, but Mother Chen found it difficult to leave the place where she had devoted half her life.
Jiang Yan asked Xu Chen to arrange for someone to completely renovate the orphanage, and then let Mother Chen move back with her children.
The walls of the orphanage today are as white as snow, smooth and flat, and have a soft sheen in the sunlight.
The brand new windows are bright and transparent, the window frames are painted shiny black, and the red tiles on the roof are neatly arranged.
In the yard, everything looks brand new except for the big ginkgo tree that is still lush and leafy, like a guardian of time.
The yard ground, which used to be covered with weeds on the mud, is now a whole piece of tender green grass, like a soft velvet carpet covering the earth. The colorful flowers sway gently in the breeze, emitting bursts of sweet fragrance, as if warmly welcoming the long-lost friends.
Jiang Suisui couldn't wait to jump out of the car and ran towards Mother Chen: "Mother Chen, I miss you so much!"
Mother Chen stroked her head gently with tears in her eyes, her voice trembling slightly: "Good child, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
Jiang Yan also walked forward steadily. He nodded slightly at Mother Chen, his eyes filled with respect and gratitude for her.
Several people from the Gu family also gathered around, their faces filled with smiles as gentle as the spring breeze.
Fang Shuyun took a few quick steps and directly took Mother Chen's hand. Her eyes were sincere and honest, and she kept saying words of thanks. Her voice was soft and melodious, as pleasant as the gurgling of running water.
Jiang Suisui and Gu Shi turned and walked to the car, took out the gifts they had prepared long ago, and began to distribute them to the children.
The children looked at the exquisite gifts from afar, their eyes sparkling with excitement and desire, and they couldn't help cheering.
But they did not rush forward immediately, but stood still and behaved properly.
All the children with normal vision looked at Mother Chen with a hint of expectation and inquiry in their eyes.
They wanted to go up and say hello to Sui Sui immediately, but Mother Chen had reminded them that Sui Sui came with her family and they should be polite.
Although the blind children saw darkness in front of their eyes, their faces were filled with well-behaved smiles. They stood together quietly, as if they could feel the warm atmosphere around them.
Until Mother Chen nodded gently with loving eyes.
Those children who could see immediately took action. They walked to their invisible friends, stretched out their tender but strong hands, supported them, and walked slowly towards the car step by step.
Jiang Suisui looked at everyone coming over and the brightest smile appeared on her face.
After Gu Shi helped hand it to her from the car, Jiang Suisui gently handed the gifts she had chosen to each child, and did not forget to give them each a hug.
Jiang Suisui silently expressed her gratitude in her heart.
Thank you for taking care of me before, and thank you for sharing with me the food that you were reluctant to eat yourself!
