Xue Yun carefully selected a large bouquet of flowers, paid for it, and threw it back into the system space.
Away from the bustling and noisy city center.
Xue Yun followed the direction of the "Zhulin Welfare Home" in his memory and walked away.
After a while, the off-road vehicle was driving on the country road outside the city.
Outside the car window.
Rows of small houses are scattered in a well-proportioned pattern, and farmers can occasionally be seen busy in the green fields.
Plunge into the forest path.
Xue Yun deliberately slowed down the car, and the scenery in front of him did not change much from before. The memories of training here with Hu Kui couldn't help but come to mind.
Driving straight to the end of the path.
Not far away, you can already see the ancient courtyards.
Gate.
A pure black business car has been waiting for a long time.
Hu Kui, wearing a black suit, was leaning against the car door, still holding a cigarette in his mouth. The ground under his feet was covered with burnt cigarette butts.
"You kid, you're late." Hu Kui grinned.
Smile slightly.
The car slowly stopped, Xue Yun opened the door, shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's been a long time since I've been here. I was just enjoying the countryside scenery on the way."
Silently rolled his eyes.
Throwing away the cigarette butt in his hand, Hu Kui raised his eyebrows and said, "I just called Aunt Lin, and she will open the door for us right away."
nodded.
Xue Yun flipped his hand, and a large bouquet of fragrant flowers immediately appeared in his hand.
"For the old lady?" Hu Kui asked.
"Um."
He looked up and stared at the tall fenced gate in front of him.
Xue Yun couldn't help but sigh, "Apart from Teacher Beigong, Granny Ya can also be regarded as my mentor. I can't come to see her empty-handed."
"That makes sense!"
Grinning.
Hu Kui reached out and knocked on the window. The driver in the driver's seat quickly got out of the car and handed a black document bag into his hand.
"What is this?" Xue Yun asked in surprise.
"No big deal..."
He looked deeply at the orphanage in front of him.
Hu Kui pretended to be serious and said: "Didn't you tell me to come with the gift?"
His eyebrows were raised slightly.
Xue Yun immediately felt confused and had no idea what medicine was being sold in this gourd.
"This welfare home was built with the hard work of the old woman during her lifetime..."
Scanning the familiar scenery in front of me.
Hu Kui felt sad, shook his head and sighed: "In the past, I always wanted to do something for her, but unfortunately I didn't have the ability. Now that I have become the city lord, I can finally do my best."
A creak~~
Just as Xue Yun was guessing what was in the folder, the door of Zhulin Orphanage was suddenly slowly pushed open from the inside.
"I've kept you two waiting for a long time..."
What caught his eye was Aunt Lin, who had taken over the position of dean.
Two years passed in a flash.
Aunt Lin in front of her was still as gorgeous as before, and a long-lost joy flashed in her eyes as she looked at the two of them.
After a while.
But he had to suppress his emotions, and he pretended to be reserved and saluted the two of them: "Zhulin Welfare Home, welcome City Lord Hu and Mr. Xue to visit us."
The atmosphere suddenly condensed.
The two of them froze on the spot in embarrassment, and after looking at each other, they both showed bitter smiles.
To this day.
Their identities are completely different from before.
One is a dominating prince, and the other is a powerful man with global fame.
Lost the shelter and intimidation of Grandma Ya.
Zhulin Welfare Institute is just a small private charity organization, and being cautious has become the norm for its continued survival.
Facing powerful forces, a little carelessness can lead to disaster.
In Aunt Lin's eyes, they are no longer the two young and frivolous students, but important figures who can deal with all major forces.
She must abide by the proper etiquette and does not dare to neglect it.
"Aunt Lin, don't be like this..."
He shook his head helplessly.
He quickly took a step forward and reached out to lift up the other person's body, which he wanted to worship.
Xue Yun smiled bitterly and said: "You should just call us thorns as you did before. It's more palatable."
"that is."
He took the opportunity to hold a cigarette in his mouth.
Hu Kui echoed with a smile and said: "After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, I just want to be myself. The only one here is Hu Kui who fought and made trouble in the past. Where did this bullshit City Lord come from?"
The words just fell.
His slender arms quickly lifted up and snatched the cigarette from the corner of Hu Kui's mouth.
"This is what you said."
He raised the cigarette in his hand.
Aunt Lin frowned slightly and said in an easy-going manner: "You should all know the rules. Smoking is not allowed in the welfare home."
As soon as these words came out.
Both of them were slightly startled, and after looking at each other, they couldn't help but smile knowingly.
Time may change many things.
Age, status and even the status gap between people.
But the purest friendships in the past are established facts that no one can change.
that's all.
Two years later, under the leadership of Aunt Lin, the two entered the Zhulin Orphanage again.
The floor is paved with blue bricks and the courtyard is quiet.
The scenery in the orphanage is still pleasant.
The small bridges and flowing water along the road are combined with the rows of rockeries. The occasional sound of children reading aloud in unison makes people forget the hustle and bustle in the busy city for an instant.
"In the past two years, the welfare home has actually developed quite well..."
Walking at the front, Aunt Lin always smiled and introduced herself.
"Although everyone's life has become more difficult without the dean, fortunately, they don't have to worry about three meals a day, which in turn has tempered the children's hard-working spirit."
"only......"
He lowered his head and felt sad.
Aunt Lin in front of her smiled bitterly and said: "With the increasing number of children in the orphanage, food, clothing, housing, transportation, outdated facilities, and teachers and personnel have all become issues that urgently need improvement."
Follow behind.
Xue Yun and Hu Kui immediately frowned.
In the past, Grandma Ya had to bear all the expenses of the orphanage alone.
By helping to train the descendants of the powerful families in Longdu City, the old lady can often earn a lot of remuneration, which can be used to subsidize the daily expenses of the welfare home.
In addition, she is a highly respected senior citizen herself.
Successful people from all walks of life in the Great Xia Empire often came to visit, and occasionally provided large amounts of funds to the welfare home in the name of donations before leaving.
As the saying goes, tea cools down when people are gone.
Since Grandma Ya passed away, many people have gradually forgotten about this humble place.
However, the orphanages are accepting more and more orphans.
Over time.
Whether it is financial pressure or human effort, it seems that it is somewhat beyond the means.
