Red Star Welfare Home.
"Comrade Dean, I'll leave Mianmian to you."
Yun Yongcheng found the director of the Red Star Welfare Home and personally handed Yun Mian over to the director.
"Mianmian, your uncle is not by your side, you have to listen to the dean's mother."
Before leaving, Yun Yongcheng gave Yun Mian some gentle instructions while stuffing the things he had just bought at the supply and marketing cooperative and a bag of eggs cooked by Mei Cuiping into Yun Mian's hands.
"It's hot, and boiled eggs won't keep long. Mianmian, eat the eggs first, and then have the White Rabbit candy and pastries that your uncle bought for you. In a few days, when your uncle is free, I'll come to the orphanage to see you."
"Comrade Yun Yongcheng, go ahead and do your work. Leave the child to us. You can rest assured."
The dean helped Yunmian get some things and held one of Yunmian's little hands.
"Mianmian, uncle is leaving, say goodbye to him."
They had agreed that it would be a brief separation, but the moment Yun Yongcheng turned and left, Yun Mian's eyes turned red and tears rolled out like pearls.
"Uncle, wuwuwu..."
Yun Yongcheng had not taken ten steps when Yun Mian broke free from the dean's hand, sobbing and calling for Yun Yongcheng while running after Yun Yongcheng with her short legs.
Hearing the sound of his uncle sobbing behind him, Yun Yongcheng felt a sharp pain in his heart. Turning around, he saw a pink little ball rushing into his arms. He instinctively opened his arms and hugged the pink ball in his arms.
"Mianmian, didn't we agree on this before? Why are you crying?"
Seeing the little girl crying with tears in her eyes and her wet eyes revealing helplessness and fear, Yun Yongcheng's heart ached again. He reached out to help the little girl wipe away her tears, but was afraid that his rough hands would hurt the little girl's delicate skin, so his big hand froze in mid-air.
Yun Mian sniffed a few times and tried hard to hold back her tears.
In her previous life, her father said goodbye to her in the same way before the plane crash. At that time, her father said to her in a gentle voice: Mianmian, you stay at home and be good. Dad will fly back to be with you after he finishes his work. But after Dad left, he never came back.
Just now, when she saw her father turning and leaving, she suddenly remembered the scenes from her previous life and her heart suddenly panicked.
"Uncle, I will listen to the Dean's mother and wait for you here. This time, you must come to pick me up."
Yun Yongcheng thought this sounded a bit strange, but then he thought the little girl was just scared, so he didn't delve into it any further.
"Uncle will definitely come to pick you up."
After getting her father's assurance, Yunmian let go of her little hands that were pulling at her father's clothes. Then Yunmian and the director's mother stood at the door of the welfare home and watched her father drive away in the ox cart reluctantly. Only when her father and the ox cart disappeared did Yunmian retract her gaze.
The dean saw that there were still traces of tears on her rosy cheeks, so he squatted down slightly and smiled at her.
"Mianmian."
Yunmian raised her eyes, they were moist, clear and transparent, with a few crystal clear tears hanging on her long curly eyelashes. She was as cute as she could be, and as pitiful as she could be. The director's heart suddenly softened like a ball of cotton, and her tone of voice became softer.
"There are brothers and sisters in the welfare home. I'll take you to where you sleep and put your things away first, and then I'll take you to see them, okay?"
