Chapter 245 I Can’t Speak
The woman finally nodded in agreement and put on the clothes that Juanjuan had altered, preparing to attend her friend's party.
"Hu Zi, please take this young lady to her destination! We have delayed her for so long, I am afraid she will be late." Si Ning looked at Hu Zi and said.
"Thank you very much." The woman left happily.
Juanjuan looked at the old man who came with her, and then looked at Shopkeeper Lu: "Uncle Lu, do you have any clothes that would suit this grandpa?"
Shopkeeper Lu took a look at the old man's figure and said, "Yes, I'll get it for him right away."
"No, thanks. I don't know how to thank you for helping me today. I don't have money to buy new clothes." The old man said with a red face.
"Old man, you don't have to pay. Your clothes are already dirty. Just consider this a gift from our lady to you." Shopkeeper Lu smiled and waved his hand.
"Then I can't accept it. You have already helped me a lot today." The old man waved his hands quickly.
"Grandpa, just take it! Maybe you can help us in the future." Si Jinchen walked up to him and said with a smile.
Si Ning gave Shopkeeper Lu a look, asking him to take a few more sets of clothes and stuff some silver and money in them.
It was obvious that the old woman's family was not well off. Since the two children wanted to help, she naturally would not hold them back.
Shopkeeper Lu went to get a few sets of clothes that the old man could wear, wrapped them up and handed them to him: "Old man, these clothes are the store's backlog."
"Even if it's not for you, it will be given to someone else. Just consider it as a favor to help us reduce our inventory."
A cloth bag was stuffed into the old man's dark hand. He wanted to return it, but found that the cloth bag was dirty from being squeezed by his dirty hands.
If I go back now, I'm afraid I'll get my hands dirty, and I feel a little overwhelmed.
"Old man, just accept it. We still have a lot of things to do, so we won't send you back." Si Ning was afraid that he would refuse again, so he directly ordered him to leave.
The old man was still in a daze when he walked out of the store. It was only when he looked down and saw the bag in his hand that he felt that all this was real.
He really met a good person today, otherwise, not only would he not be forgiven, but he would probably be thrown into the police station and detained for a few days.
Thinking of his family, he didn't dare to delay any longer. He took his bag and the things in his hands and hurried home.
Si Ning waited for Hu Zi to come back before taking the children from the orphanage to the flower garden.
Before they even reached the flower garden, Si Ning asked Hu Zi and the others to stop the car: "Hu Zi, you guys just wait here for us, I'll take them there."
"Madam, this..."
"It's only a few steps away, they won't be in trouble. Ask the brothers behind to buy some daily necessities for these children, including food and drinks."
Si Ning thought that although this place had been tidied up, no one had lived in this flower garden house for a long time, and some things were no longer usable.
"Okay, I'll ask someone to buy it now." Hu Zi nodded and quickly ordered a car behind to go buy the things.
"Let's go! I'll take you in." Si Ning looked at the children who were a little nervous.
"Okay!" They walked nervously and their hands and feet were a little timid.
"Brothers and sisters, don't be nervous. This is not a dangerous place." Si Jinchen looked at them with a smile.
"Little butterfly." Juanjuan looked up and saw the little butterfly from yesterday on the courtyard wall.
"Flutter, flutter. There are so many flowers here, and the nectar is so delicious!" The little butterfly happily circled in front of her.
"Hehe!" Juanjuan laughed happily and reached out to let it fall into her palm.
Before they even entered the yard, the seven children in the orphanage were so shocked that they were speechless.
But just as they were about to ask, they found that they could not speak.
This realization startled them, and they immediately forgot what they were about to ask. They turned to the people beside them and said, "You..."
Before they had finished speaking, they discovered they could speak again.
Si Ning and Si Jinchen were observing silently from the side and had noticed some differences, but neither of them said much.
When you push open the gate of the flower garden, you will see hundreds of flowers blooming all over the garden. The rich fragrance of the flowers makes everyone feel refreshed.
"Wow! There are so many beautiful flowers." Juanjuan pulled Si Jinchen into the yard.
Si Ning looked at the children beside him and said, "Come in. I have something to tell you later."
The children in the orphanage were also shocked by the scene before them. The flowers in the flower garden were really beautiful.
Si Ning waited until they all came in, then closed the gate to the flower garden: "Come with me."
Seven children followed her, carrying their own small bags, and came to a camellia in full bloom.
They saw Si Ning reach out and pick a camellia, and another camellia quickly grew in the place where the camellia had just been picked.
"Did you see it clearly?" Si Ning asked the seven children who had opened their mouths wide.
Several children felt that they were dazzled. They raised the back of their hands and rubbed their eyes vigorously to see if they were dazzled.
What they saw was the camellia picked by Si Ning, and there was still a camellia in full bloom at the place where it was picked.
They wanted to ask what was going on, but found themselves unable to speak again.
Si Ning looked at them and said, "All the flowers in this flower garden are like this. Once you pick them, they will grow back quickly."
"This is the secret I asked you to keep. I hope you can all abide by the agreement. Can you do it?"
"Yes!" The seven children tried to speak, and this time they were able to make a sound.
And they also discovered a strange thing, that is, whenever they wanted to ask or talk about things in the flower garden, they could not make any sound.
Although this kind of thing is very strange, they are not afraid. After all, they are also afraid that one day they will not be able to help but reveal it to others in their sleep.
Si Ning smiled at the seven children and said, "From now on, there will only be seven of you here. You will be responsible for picking flowers every day and sending them to the rouge workshop in the city."
"I'll have a carriage sent over tomorrow and teach you how to drive it. If anyone asks you about the flower garden, just say that the Second Master brought these flowers from overseas."
"Do you understand everything?"
"I understand." The seven children nodded vigorously.
Si Ning took them to where they would live and told them that they only needed to water the flowers and pick the fruits every day. After completing their work, the rest of the time was theirs.
You can go out to play or go anywhere, but you must lock the gate to the flower garden, and it is best to leave someone to guard it.
"There's also a telephone in this courtyard. If anything happens, just call the Governor's Mansion directly."
"Okay, ma'am." The seven children slowly relaxed.
