After all the hassle, it was already past 4:30 in the afternoon. Dean Shen called another woman in her thirties over and asked her to talk to the cafeteria to add another meat dish.
"Dean, we also want to express our gratitude to the children. We came in such a hurry today that we didn't bring any gifts. Could you please buy something for the children?"
Ye Jiaying pushed Zheng Anyao, indicating that she could pay.
Zheng Anyao took out a stack of big unity notes from her small bag and handed it over.
"You guys have been so helpful today. No, no."
Dean Shen refused.
In fact, the orphanage relies mostly on donations from the outside world, and a small part is made by the orphanage itself by selling small items.
Or give money to children who have grown up and started their own families.
How much money can these young kids have?
They have already helped a lot today, we can't ask them to pay us anymore.
“Dean Shen, I’m Zheng Anyao from the Zheng family in Hongkou District. I’m here to buy some things for the children on behalf of the Zheng family.”
Zheng Anyao participated in charity donations with her grandmother and mother and moved out of the Zheng family.
The Zheng family is very famous in Hai City, and their orphanage has also received donations from the Zheng family. After hearing what Zheng Anyao said, the director hesitated.
"Please accept it." Zheng Anyao pushed the money forward.
The others also paid.
Zheng Nanzhou took out all the money his grandmother had given him.
Ye Jiaying and Gu Qinglin also took money.
Dean Shen had no choice but to accept all the offers.
Just at this time, Shen Fei came back, and Dean Shen asked her to take the money and register it.
All the money from the orphanage must be recorded.
There are account books for income and expenditure, and all the money, except for a small amount of expenses, is used for the children.
Dean Shen thanked everyone solemnly, sat for a while, and then took everyone to the cafeteria.
Before going to the cafeteria, Zheng Nanzhou used the shiny, protected phone in the dean's office to call home and told his family he would be back later.
Gu Qinglin also called his grandfather, and Grandpa Gu joked cheerfully that it was okay for him not to come back today.
Gu Qinglin was teased so much that his face turned red.
The orphanage has a small canteen.
The food inside may not be very delicious, but it is guaranteed to be green and healthy.
When everyone arrived at the cafeteria, the aroma of food could already be smelled.
The children also lined up obediently to get their meals, with the older ones leading the younger ones.
At first glance, almost all of them are girls.
They range in age from fifteen to two or three years old.
There are probably about several hundred people.
The older ones take care of the younger children, or the children with disabilities who cannot come to the cafeteria, in another smaller cafeteria.
Dean Shen usually eats with everyone. Today, Ye Jiaying and others came, and she specifically asked them to make more meat dishes, so she added sweet and sour pork ribs and stir-fried shredded pork with radish.
Meat now requires meat tickets and is hard to buy, so there is only a small plate of each item.
Ye Jiaying has good eyesight and hearing.
She could clearly hear several children swallowing.
The children in the orphanage were all very sensible. The older ones shook their heads and said no, giving the space to the younger ones.
Even so, each person could only get a small piece of ribs.
It makes people feel sad.
Dean Shen smiled and said that everyone’s meals had been prepared and placed in the small room at the back.
Everyone walked around the children who were getting their meals and went to the small room.
On the plate, each person had a portion of pork ribs, a portion of stir-fried pork with radish, a portion of shrimp and egg custard, a portion of stir-fried cabbage, and a portion of vinegar-fried bean sprouts.
Dean Shen felt a little embarrassed.
“The food is quite simple, I hope you don’t mind.”
Several people shook their heads.
Having two meat dishes and eggs is pretty good.
Nowadays, except for families like Zheng Anyao's, very few ordinary families can eat meat every day.
After dinner, it was already dark.
Everyone said goodbye to the dean and left.
Ye Jiaying wanted to cling to the future big boss, so she called Shen Wei to the side before leaving.
"Your name is Shen Wei, right? My name is Ye Jiaying. If you don't want to leave the orphanage, I'll tell you how to tell Dean Shen."
As one of the few healthy boys in the orphanage, Dean Shen still wants him to return to a normal family and live a good life.
In Dean Shen's heart, Shen Wei is a kind and grateful child. If he is not found a good family and let him leave here while he is still young, he will have no chance when he grows up.
Adoptive families generally choose children under the age of eight.
Being young, it is easier to develop feelings.
Shen Wei is about to surpass him.
Ye Jiaying secretly said a few words to Shen Wei. Shen Wei's eyes lit up after listening. He looked at Ye Jiaying seriously and nodded solemnly, indicating that he remembered it.
"Thank you, Sister Ye."
Shen Wei thanked Jiaying obediently.
"You're welcome. I'll come to see you next year."
Ye Jiaying smiled and agreed with him to visit him again next year.
Shen Wei also responded.
Ye Jiaying was in a good mood after achieving her goal.
As a big boss, we always have to keep in touch.
You haven't seen each other for several years or even more than ten years. Why would he take you with him when he becomes successful?
Ye Jiaying's wish came true, but Shen Peipei was not as lucky as her.
Today's car accident disrupted all her plans. She had been planning to visit the orphanage, give money to the director and then go back.
I have to rush to the next tour location tomorrow, so time is very tight.
As a result, she was almost hit when she left the theater, and encountered Shen Wei's incident when she came to the orphanage. She felt that she had to stay here today and sleep with the director's mother.
Have a good chat with the dean’s mother.
Shen Peipei told Ye Jiaying and others that she would leave Hai City tomorrow and head to the next tour location.
