Xu Zhaozhao didn't think too much about it and listened to the life teacher's introduction.
The guests' positions were also quite novel, with Xiao Kai following Xu Zhaozhao.
There were clearly three groups of guests, but they were standing like there were only two groups.
"I am the children's life teacher. I have been working at the welfare home for seven years. Today, I will give you a comprehensive understanding of the lives of the children in the welfare home."
With that, the teacher started walking. "Now, please follow me into the yard, mothers and children."
The truckloads of goods have been mostly unloaded, making room for them to walk in.
The structure inside the welfare home is also very complicated, with locked doors and long corridors.
Unable to accommodate so many people, only the guest and one accompanying photographer were allowed into the inner courtyard.
After passing through several locked doors and walking through many long corridors, we finally arrived at the inner courtyard.
"This is the teaching building where we usually conduct teaching activities for the children."
The teacher reached out to the building in the very center, a three-story red brick building.
A clock has been installed on the protruding part of the roof; it's just past 11:30 now.
"At this time, the children are all preparing to eat lunch in the cafeteria next to the school building."
The teacher continued her explanation.
Everyone looked to the side and indeed saw the cafeteria, which was shorter than the teaching building. Through the unobstructed doorway, they could vaguely see the children inside.
At this moment, the dormitory teacher turned around to look at them.
"To allow our guests to immerse themselves in the life of the welfare home, please put on aprons and become the children's caregivers."
As he spoke, an assistant ran out from behind him and handed them six aprons, with the children even receiving smaller ones.
However, the production team clearly overlooked Jiang Ting's height—although his lean physique allowed him to fit into the clothes, it looked a bit cramped.
It was just an ordinary light brown apron with the words "Imperial Capital Welfare Home" embroidered on it.
[How come this apron is so small... Jiang Ting looks like a macho man wearing an apron in it.]
[The little apron looks perfectly natural on Yu Yu, hehehe (I admit I'm a bit of a pervert, I want to see Yu Yu in a maid outfit, sob sob)]
[No offense intended, but Kai Kai's little tummy is making his apron look so big, hahaha... (a thousand laughs omitted here)]
...
"What kind of trashy clothes are these... "
Xiao Jiejie tugged at her apron in dissatisfaction and muttered a complaint under her breath.
[If you don't like wearing princess clothes, you can go naked, I'm serious [winking]]
Hmm... how can this not be considered a limited edition haute couture? Even if we ordinary people have the money, we can't buy this apron.
[Xu Zhaozhao has something special about her: no makeup + apron + slim waist = I'm going to get fired!! [wink][wink]]
...
No one paid any attention to her complaints. After changing, she followed the dormitory supervisor into the cafeteria.
Outside, it didn't feel like much, but once inside the cafeteria, it was quite different from what everyone had imagined.
It wasn't as quiet and orderly as I had imagined.
Bang bang bang!
There were many random, disorganized tapping sounds on the table.
"Food, ahhh, give me food!"
"Squeak, squeak..."
If they hadn't been secured to the safety table and chair, who knows how chaotic the scene would have become.
The dormitory supervisor looked at their expressions and gave them a faint smile, but upon closer inspection, a hint of bitterness lingered in that smile.
"Most of the children in the welfare home were abandoned by their parents at birth, and many of them suffer from genetic diseases or chromosome deletions."
It's not that these children want to be like this; their brains and bodies are not under their control.
Beside these children were several other teachers wearing the same aprons as them.
“They need our help in their daily lives, and we would like to ask our guests to help the children finish their meals.”
As they spoke, the life skills teacher led them to the children and sat down next to them.
There were two tables; Xu Zhaozhao and her group were in charge of one table, and Qin Yueling and her group were in charge of the other.
Xu Zhaozhao observed that the other life teachers here were responsible for several tables by themselves, while they were responsible for one table by three people.
Soon, canteen staff distributed lunch to the children, consisting of two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes, which was a fairly balanced meal.
Xu Zhaozhao and her classmates were assigned a baby girl with albinism.
She sat in her car seat, her little face slightly rosy, her hair, eyebrows, and eyelashes all pure white.
Xiao Kai stared at her intently, without any malice, and murmured, "This baby looks like an angel."
Whether she understood or not, she grinned at Xiao Kai, revealing her newly grown, pointed teeth.
What Xiao Kai said really made me cry.
[We are both children with albinism, but I am very lucky that my parents didn't abandon me. I am happy and healthy. [Hands clasped together]]
[Such a beautiful baby, a real little angel, how could I bear to throw him away? I'm crying uncontrollably.]
...
Soon after, they distributed soft spoons for the baby to eat with, which can prevent the baby from getting hurt.
It was the first time in her life that Xu Zhaozhao was feeding a baby, and for some reason, she felt a little nervous.
She scooped up a spoonful of rice, blew on it to make sure it was at the right temperature, and then slowly fed it to the baby.
The baby cooperated by opening his mouth, but some rice was still squeezed out and landed on Xu Zhaozhao's hand.
Her movements were somewhat clumsy, and she tried several times without success.
It didn't hurt the baby, it just got her hands a little dirty.
Gu Yulin, who had been watching from the sidelines, spoke up: "Mom, let me feed her. Go wash your hands."
Xu Zhaozhao looked at Gu Yulin with some disbelief in her eyes.
He was still a child himself, yet he already knew how to feed other children?
But since the back of her hand really needed washing, she handed it to Gu Yulin, saying, "Try it."
The next second, Xu Zhaozhao froze.
Gu Yulin fed her spoonful by spoonful with great skill, although a little bit would spill, but less than Xu Zhaozhao.
"YuYu, when did you learn to feed children?"
Gu Yulin continued working with his hands and said calmly, "This is how my aunt fed me when I was little. I remember it."
I have nothing to say.
Xu Zhaozhao then got up to wash her hands.
The sink was at the entrance of the cafeteria. Xu Zhaozhao had just washed her hands when she turned around and almost bumped into someone.
Fortunately, she managed to stop the car in time.
Seeing Fu Chengze's face, she felt a surge of anger: "Why are you always haunting me?!"
Fu Chengze didn't mind Xu Zhaozhao's words and said, "Zhaozhao, do you still remember our promise?"
His words carried a hint of greasy gentleness, which gave Xu Zhaozhao goosebumps.
Before Xu Zhaozhao could answer, he continued, "We made a promise to visit the Imperial Capital Welfare Home once a year, which is today every year."
"I thought you weren't coming today, but I didn't expect..."
Agreement, agreement, it's an agreement again.
They used to make empty promises all the time, but now they're just putting on a show of genuine affection.
Xu Zhaozhao gave a sarcastic smile.
