Chapter 135 Returning to the Orphanage
If you can't get a woman, you have to tease her. This feeling is very wonderful.
Teasing is about technique. Yang Ding can only use some words to be flirtatious at the moment. For example, he doesn't dare to really touch a woman like Mulan, but he doesn't care about a casual woman like Bai Weiwei.
Thinking of Mulan's shy look just now, Yang Ding was so excited that he drove around the county town and came to the entrance of the orphanage.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been here to see it. Well, let’s go in and experience it.
The shops in front of the orphanage have been built and are all open for business. This street is already in a popular area. The cigarette shop, grocery store, and small restaurant at the door are doing very well.
The door to the orphanage is closed, and outsiders cannot enter without an acquaintance leading the way.
Nowadays, social security is not very good. The orphanages are full of children, and the staff and volunteers combined do not have one-tenth of the number of orphans. How can we manage it, so it is a good thing to be stricter.
Yang Ding originally thought that he could swipe his face card and get in based on his appearance. Who knew that the security guard had already been replaced, "Comrade, call Dean Ning for me, and tell me that Yang Ding is here."
The old director of the orphanage has retired. No one would be willing to come to a place with no business like this, so the post of director was handed over to Ning Yuanhong two months ago.
Being the director is naturally stressful. An orphanage, a public institution belonging to the civil affairs system, may seem to have a good life on the surface, but in fact it depends on whether the unit leader pays attention to it.
If the leaders of the civil affairs system are kind-hearted, not only will the staff in the orphanage be well paid, but the annual funding will also be more than enough, enough for everyone to live a good life.
It would be a disaster if the leader didn't care.
Not only is the income of the home low, but also the annual special funds are small. If the home wants to spend more money on home construction and orphans, it has to find a way on its own.
The Fengtai County Orphanage has always been run at a loss. Sometimes the orphans' clothes are purchased by the staff. We all live near a poor county, but we all have a common belief and hope that these orphans can grow up healthily. Become a useful talent to society.
Recently, the shops in front of the orphanage have been rented out, and the rent is very reasonable. For ten shops, the monthly rent exceeds 30,000 yuan.
Ning Yuanhong's pressure has also been reduced a lot, thanks to Yang Ding's credit. He was the one who said Gu Shun did this. Yang Ding was supposed to handle a few of them, but now the orphanage has benefited.
Before Ning Yuanhong could reach the door, Laoyuan smiled at Yang Ding.
Yang Ding also shouted outside the door, "Dean Ning, hey, I'm here to see you again,"
Ning Yuanhong personally took Yang Ding into the door, feeling extremely grateful.
"Yang Ding, great job. I knew you were a lucky star in our home. Not only did you complete the expansion of the orphanage, but you also rented the shop facing the street at zero rent. Now you are subletting it out for tens of thousands of yuan a month. Hey, It really solves an urgent need in the courtyard. Although you are my student, I have to thank you on behalf of the staff and children in the courtyard,"
Yang Ding walked on the small playground in the courtyard and looked at the expanded house and green belt. He felt very happy. At this time, there were more than twenty children under ten years old playing near the green belt. Yang Ding thought of When I was a child.
It was very small at that time, with only a small courtyard and a two-story house. There were no recreational facilities in the orphanage. The best toys were rolling hoops, fanning foreign paintings, kicking shuttlecocks, and jumping rubber ropes...
Yang Ding smiled unconsciously as if he saw his own shadow.
"Dean Ning, the orphanage is like a mother. I am the son here. Why are you thanking me? It's all what I should do. As long as I have that kind of strength, I will try my best to do more things,"
Yang Ding's heart was very passionate at this time. In fact, he could not be where he is today without the many years of nurturing in the orphanage. If it weren't for the existence of this orphanage, and if it weren't for the teachers and staff who were as responsible as Ning Yuanhong, he might have Become a beggar, maybe become a thief, maybe become a staff member here...
Ning Yuanhong couldn't follow what Yang Ding said. After all, Yang Ding was no longer what he used to be. Once a person turns from a wage earner to a boss, there are only a few people who can maintain the purest mentality.
Ning Yuanhong opened the office door and motioned for Yang Ding to go in first.
"Yang Ding, you are now the deputy mayor. You haven't been to the courtyard since the last time I said goodbye. I know you must be very busy. I have been concerned about your news. You can sit down wherever you want. You are not in the office. of luxury,”
This office is surrounded by walls. Apart from an unassuming desk, there are only a few stools and an old wooden coffee table. There are not a single calligraphy or painting on the wall. This is the simplest thing Yang Ding has ever seen. 's office.
Just now Yang Ding walked in and saw the name of the office. Ning Yuanhong was already the dean, and this was the dean's office.
Ning Yuanhong has a strong sense of responsibility for the orphans and the orphanage. Yang Ding is very clear that she will invest more here in the future than the previous leaders. Yang Ding said, "Dean Ning, you have become a leader of the orphanage." You are now the leader, congratulations, the orphans here are blessed,"
Ning Yuanhong didn't dare to take credit, "I don't have that much ability on my own. To do this kind of thing, we need help from all walks of life, and you are one of them. The hospital's funds are not so tight recently, but the staff of the hospital Wages and benefits are still not increasing, and the sublease fees of the shops at the door have been invested in the daily expenses of the orphans. Therefore, our home is still recruiting volunteers. We hope that people with good intentions and time can contribute money and efforts. "
Yang Ding thought about it. Many movies he watched mentioned that there were volunteers. Some volunteers were rich people who carried out charity activities here to kill time and "atone" for things they had done before. Some volunteers were poor because the hospital management Meals for the day.
I don’t know if there are such volunteers in Fengtai County.
Yang Ding asked, "Dean Ning, how are the number of volunteers and how do you arrange them?"
Ning Yuanhong was a little helpless. Recruiting volunteers was originally a welfare benefit for orphans in the hospital. She asked for support from all walks of life, but she did not expect that a new situation arose. Not only did she have to take care of orphans, but she also had to take care of volunteers.
Ning Yuanhong said, "The quality of volunteers is also mixed. Some volunteers come from good families and just come to amuse the children. They don't even eat. They come in the morning and leave at noon. Some come to sit in the afternoon after lunch. However, there are some volunteers who have completely become professionals and never leave once they come. They expect us to take care of three meals in the courtyard. Two of them even offered to stay in the courtyard. Fortunately, there are a few empty rooms in the courtyard. , just think of it as helping them, hey,"
Yang Ding casually flipped through the newspaper on the coffee table. Under the newspaper was a piece of A4 white paper with a few lines written in elegant fonts.
"A pair of colorful butterflies under the pear tree"
"Small bridge and winding water"
"White clothes are like snow and the flute is playing softly in the evening"
"When will I return after leaving a song?"
"The world of mortals is like a dream that turns a thousand times"
"My tears are in your eyes"
"Whose comfort flies with dreams"
"I only have your beauty in my eyes"
After Yang Ding finished reciting silently, he felt very artistic and asked, "Dean Ning, who wrote this? It couldn't be you, right?"
Ning Yuanhong picked it up and looked at it, smiling slightly, how could it be written by her? She is so old, she doesn't understand these young people's things, "Of course it wasn't written by me, it was written by a volunteer, yesterday at noon I ate a lunch box in my office and wrote something casually without looking at it carefully. It seemed that this girl had something on her mind, but she received a call at the last minute and she left before she finished writing."
Only women can be so sentimental. Yang Ding found a pen and said, "Dean Ning, let me continue writing."
Yang Ding continued the last line and wrote: There are three thousand weak waters in the world, I only ask you for this cup.
"Dean Ning, she hasn't finished writing. I'll finish it for her. If she comes here when she's free, give it to her to read." Yang Ding was also interested for a moment. He was usually busy with work. In fact, Yang Ding still liked these things. It was something poetic and picturesque. Although he didn't know many verses, he happened to have some impression of the poem on the paper.
Ning Yuanhong thought to herself, that woman is quite beautiful, and Yang Ding is handsome and a potential stock, why not make do with it.
However, Ning Yuanhong did not say it directly. Some things require strategy.
"Yang Ding, let me take you to the activity room to take a look. This woman usually comes here at noon and on weekends to teach children how to color ceramic dolls."
Entering the activity room, Yang Ding saw nearly a hundred white ceramic dolls, large and small, which are very popular recently.
Let some children and women buy it, and then color it for free. There are many colors to choose from. After coloring, the merchant will help spray paint, and finally it can be shaped.
Most ceramic dolls are money boxes, but they are fragile and can break if dropped.
The painted ceramic dolls were placed on the windowsill. They looked very beautiful and came in all kinds. However, Yang Ding found that there was one of the largest naughty bears. Only the head was covered, and the body and feet were still white. .
Ning Yuanhong took down the largest ceramic that Yang Ding saw, "Yang Ding, this is the color that the woman applied, but it's not finished yet. She will continue to apply it on the weekend. How about it? The skill is very delicate, right?"
Yang Ding took a closer look and found that it was really great. There were almost no flaws in the hat, eyes, ears, and face. The most important thing about this kind of thing is the details. You have to use a variety of pens of different thicknesses to fill them in. Most people don't have this patience. , and in the end it will be perfunctory.
"It's really good. If she finishes painting this ceramic doll, can I take it home and display it?"
Ning Yuanhong thought about it and realized that the woman would not take it away after she fell in love with her, so she could decide who to give the ceramic doll to.
"Of course, but don't you want to give it a try? Go on,"
Chapter completed!
