When Shen Mingzhu came out of the office and saw the students gathered outside the office door to watch the fun, she felt indescribable.

It was such a cold day, but most people were wearing thin clothes, and only a few students were wearing jackets.

They were all so cold that their noses were running, but they all looked at her happily.

The yearning for a prosperous big city is as beautiful as the bright flowers blooming from the barren land.

…

After leaving school, Shen Mingzhu drove to Chishui Town again and contacted the village director of Xujia Village through the town government. She briefly told him about Xu Shengli's indulgence in his son bullying Xu Dani.

She hoped that the village director could restrain Xu Shengli and his wife and stop causing trouble for Xu Dani.

Shen Mingzhu is now well-known in the surrounding area, and her words are effective. After returning to the village, the village director went to Xu Liang's house and severely criticized Xu Shengli and his wife who had just returned from the health center.

"...Even the town leaders know about it. Your Xu Liang stole something from a little girl. Do you have any shame? Ah? You've embarrassed yourself and everyone in the town knows about it. Will you go out and see people from now on?"

Xu Shengli and Liu Guilan are both typical bullies. When they heard that the incident had become so serious that even the town leaders were alarmed, they had to give up the idea of ​​settling the score with Xu Dani.

…

After returning to the city, Shen Mingzhu drove to the grain and oil station and bought 1,000 kilograms of noodles and 500 kilograms of vegetable oil. He then went to the chicken farm and ordered 500 kilograms of eggs.

After doing these things, she went to the staff quarters to find Feng Huiying.

"Sister Feng, please help me get four or five people to help me do something in the next two days."

"What's up?"

Shen Mingzhu gave Feng Huiying the tickets for purchasing rice, vegetable oil and eggs.

"Go to each residential building and compound and collect 500 old jackets for me. It doesn't matter whether they are new or old styles, as long as they are suitable for school children to wear. One old jacket can be exchanged for two kilograms of noodles, one kilogram of vegetable oil, and one kilogram of eggs."

These things together are worth about two dollars.

Nowadays, every family has a few worn-out jackets at the bottom of the closet. It’s a great deal to exchange them for grain, oil and eggs.

When Feng Huiying learned that Shen Mingzhu exchanged these old jackets in order to do charity work at school, she gave her a thumbs up with full admiration.

"Just because you have the noble character of not forgetting your roots, you deserve to be rich!"

Shen Mingzhu doesn't think she is such a noble person, she just does things like giving roses to others and the fragrance lingers on her hands.

Within the scope of her ability, she helps the weak and benefits others, while also gaining inner peace and happiness for herself.

It was already evening when I finished talking to Feng Huiying.

Shen Mingzhu drove directly back home.

As soon as the car stopped, a tall figure stood at the door.

Shen Mingzhu opened the car door and looked at the man in surprise, "You got off work so early today?"

Pei Yang is in charge of marketing and sales. He usually has a lot of social engagements and it’s always early when it gets dark.

Pei Yang took the bag from her hand and said, "I thought you were lost. You haven't been seen for the whole afternoon."

It only takes half an hour to drive from Fengcheng to Anping Town. Shen Mingzhu left home at 11 o'clock, so she should be back even if she drove a little later.

After experiencing the last kidnapping incident, Pei Yang was now a little nervous. Seeing that Shen Mingzhu had not returned to the factory at three o'clock in the afternoon, he became anxious.

The evening was cooler than the day.

Shen Mingzhu put her hands in the man's coat pockets and told Pei Yang what happened at school as she walked into the house.

"...It's so cold, and many students don't even wear socks. It's pitiful to see them."

Pei Yang held her hand with his big hand in his pocket and cast a deep gaze on her face.

Shen Mingzhu was puzzled. "Why are you looking at me? Have I become more beautiful?"

Shen Mingzhu snorted, "If I wasn't stupid, would I let you get away with it?"

Pei Yang was amused by her words, "That's right. I still remember when you went with me to get the marriage certificate, you were so dizzy as if you were sleepwalking. You did whatever I told you to do, like a soft bun, making people want to bully you."

She originally thought it was a dream, otherwise...

If she had known from the beginning that it was not a dream, she would still have gotten the marriage certificate.

After all, only by getting a marriage certificate can she escape from the Shen family's trap.

…

Feng Huiying was very efficient and collected 500 old jackets in just three days.

Shen Mingzhu did not delay and delivered 500 old jackets to the school that day.

In order to prevent omissions or greed, Shen Mingzhu brought Pei Qiuxia and Shen Hongmei and personally distributed each old cotton jacket to every student.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

The students who received the old cotton-padded jackets were smiling happily, while those who didn’t receive any were rubbing their hands in anticipation.

After the old cotton-padded jackets were distributed, led by the principal, all 433 students in the school expressed their gratitude to Shen Mingzhu in unison.

"Thank you, Aunt Mingzhu!"

The uniform voices of children echoed over the school for a long time.

At the enthusiastic invitation of the principal, Shen Mingzhu stood on the flagpole, looked at the innocent faces, and gave a speech with a smile: "Study hard and become a useful person to the society and the country in the future, okay?"

"good!!!"

There was thunderous applause.

Xu Dani stood in the crowd, her hands were almost swollen from clapping, but she was reluctant to stop.

The winter was harsh, but her heart felt as hot as if there was a raging fire burning in it.

One day in the future, she will stand on a high platform like Aunt Mingzhu today, overlooking the world.

For the remaining coats, Shen Mingzhu asked each class teacher to make a list of students in extreme poverty.

All students on the list can receive another old cotton-padded jacket.

At the same time, Shen Mingzhu sponsored twenty students to go to school every year in the name of the food factory.

There are three conditions for funding: one is that the student is a girl; two is that the student's family is particularly difficult; and three is that the total score of the two subjects is above 160 points.

The principal was very confused about the first funding condition.

"Boss Shen, there are several boys in the school who have good grades and whose families are in financial difficulty. How about having an equal ratio of boys to girls to show fairness?"

Shen Mingzhu rejected the principal's proposal. "Girls in rural areas are not treated well since birth. They are always at a disadvantage and are always the ones who are sacrificed."

"Boys often suffer because of their families and birth, while girls suffer simply because of their gender. I personally hate this feudal dregs thinking that people should suffer discrimination and injustice just because they are women."

"So, I hope to do my best to give these motivated girls a chance to change their lives."

After listening to her ideas, the principal expressed respect and understanding.

If among these favored girls, there could be another person like Shen Mingzhu, it would be a blessing for the entire Anping Town.

…

In the B-ultrasound room.

Jia Yuemei whispered to the doctor who was running the ultrasound probe over her belly, "Doctor Yuan, how is it? Is it a boy or a girl?" (End of this chapter)
