Xu Yinxin said: Of course you wont know.
She spoke clearly and asked: "Uncle, why didn't you look for Xiaojin at that time? He had been waiting for his family to pick him up, and he was sent to our welfare home when he couldn't wait."
"Yes, yes!" Xu Dong and Xu Xi also said, "When he first came to the orphanage, he was very pitiful."
They meant that he was silent, sitting alone, looking very pitiful.
Ning Qixue thought that his nephew had suffered a lot in the traffickers' den and was seriously injured. His eyes were red. He looked at his nephew and was helpless:
"I, we didn't mean to look for you. After you disappeared, we searched for you seriously for more than a month. But then your aunt's parents were hospitalized in a car accident. We went to City S. Before we could go back, a natural disaster struck. Thats it
Ning Qixue couldn't speak anymore. He lowered his head in shame and said, "Come to my uncle anytime if you have anything to do." He hurried back to the temporary bunk.
Xu Yin gently touched Ning Jin with her elbow: "Actually, it's not difficult to reject people, right?"
Ning Jin turned to look at her, her eyebrows relaxed: "Yeah."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and went to Professor Liu's place to see if there was any work scheduled for today.
Xu Dong and Xu Xi looked at each other: "The strange feeling is here again!"
Xiao Hu raised the rolled-up roster and patted Xu Dong's head gently: "What's so strange? They are childhood sweethearts and childhood sweethearts, and they have many common topics. Isn't it normal for them to have a good relationship?"
Xu Dong pulled Xu Xi over and said, "We are also childhood sweethearts. Why are we not as weird as them?"
Thats because you are stupid! Xu Xi rolled his eyes at him.
Xu Dong: "...Why am I the only one stupid? You are the one who is weird, okay?"
After the heavy rain, no abnormalities can be seen in the soil and vegetation on the surface for the time being. However, during the safety period, Professor Liu still asked everyone to wear protective clothing to work in the experimental fields.
The slightly injured citizens who moved from City S are still waiting for the bus to take them to Central City.
However, I heard that the central city is almost out of habitation, and the government plans to gradually restore power plants, water plants, natural gas supply stations and other livelihood enterprises on the ground, and restore the supply of water and electricity to some residences to ensure daily life.
When Xu Yin heard the news, she felt moved and asked Professor Liu during a break:
"Professor, can we apply to move back to the welfare home? The dean's mother is not in good health. She was assigned a Datongpu in Central City, which is not conducive to rest. Let her move to our suite. She is not willing. If she can move Just go back to the orphanage."
Professor Liu sincerely likes these children, especially Xu Yin. Not only is she very strong, but she is also very smart, especially in crop cultivation. Several children are still in junior high school. He really wants to accept her as a closed disciple. If he can help, he will definitely help:
Dont worry, the driver will be here soon. Ill ask him to send a message to Lao Hong and ask him to find out the specific operating requirements.
With Professor Liu's coordination, Cien Welfare Home was successfully included in the first batch of lists to restore power, water and gas.
Xu Dong and Xu Xi were so happy when they heard the news:
Can we go back to the orphanage? Really?
Deans mother, Nannan, Beibei and the others can all come back to live here? Ouch! Thats great!
Over there, the dean was also very excited when he received the notice, stroking his chest to prevent himself from fainting.
After six years, I can finally go home!
A nest of gold and silver is not as good as a straw nest at home. It was only after six years of wandering outside like a rootless duckweed that I fully understood the meaning of this proverb.
Although the other children are not as excited as the director, after all, the older children need to study and learn skills, and are more suitable to live in the central city; the younger ones were only two or three years old when they left, and their impression of the orphanage has changed over the past few years. It has long been blurred.
But everyone is happy to be able to live on the ground.
During the preparation period, Xu Yins four children took time to go back to the orphanage to clean and tidy up the house. They repaired what needed to be repaired and reinforced what needed to be strengthened.
But there was one thing. Ning Jin told Xu Dong and Xu Xi'er: "Do you still remember our original oath? The bunker is a secret between the four of us. We will not tell the fifth person, including the dean, at any time." "I know, I know." Xu Dong thought he was verbose, "Brother Ning, you are a boy, why are you acting like a girl?"
"What's wrong with the girl?" Xu Xi put her hands on her hips and glared at him, "Has the girl offended you?"
Can't afford to offend!
Xu Dong picked up Ning Jin and ran away: "Let's go pick up some dry firewood to re-fence the vegetable field."
Six years later, the children have grown up and it is no longer possible to live in Datongbu or in a room for men and women as before. After Xu Yin and Xu Xi discussed it, they decided to use the stairs as a boundary and the rooms to the east of the stairs for girls to live in; To the west of the stairs is the boys' dormitory.
She and Xu Xi live in one room, and Ning Jin and Xu Dong live in the same room. They are divided into two small single rooms at the stairwell on the first floor. It is very convenient to enter and exit the stairwell.
It is up to other children to decide which room they want to live in.
If there are not enough beds, make beds on the floor.
In hot weather, even if you turn on the air conditioner, you wont feel cold even if you lay on the floor.
The bunker is most likely to be discovered by the lighting system, because it needs to be exposed to the surface to collect light sources.
Fortunately, after she came to work on the ground, she secretly sowed a lot of high-temperature-resistant vegetation seeds, the most common ones being coconut trees, palms, and plantains.
Among them, plantains grow the fastest. The higher the temperature during the day, the better they grow. It doesnt take long for them to sprout broad leaves and create a large area of dense shade. Nearby low-rise residences are almost surrounded by plantains.
There are a few lush palm trees and plantains popping up in the orphanage, which are not eye-catching at all.
The lighting system is hidden under these banana leaves, and there are some prickly flowers and plants around it. Who would get in there?
Therefore, the dean and the children returned to the orphanage for many years, but they did not discover that there was a huge castle with multiple functions hidden underground.
Its just that the temperature during the day is too high, and its too hot even when I go out with an ice pack on my back, so I have to continue to practice a routine that reverses black and white.
Professor Liu obtained a batch of sunshade cloth for them and cut it into curtains to block the light, making the room feel like night.
At night, when the temperature drops, I can work in full swing under the illumination of solar street lights.
At first glance, life is no different from the life in the underground city. There are also few opportunities to bask in the sun unbridled, but the children are happy every day because they are safe and free
When sleeping, you dont have to worry about the sudden fight between the couple in the corridor or the house next door, or the quarrel between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law;
When you are working, if you want to sing a song, no one will object to you making a lot of noise. On the contrary, children, you sing and I sing, and occasionally there will be a big chorus.
As for the issue of schooling, the base has been working hard to solve it. Soon, the ground schools will be restored one by one.
Before they recovered, Ning Jin and Xu Yin acted as little teachers. They made a blackboard and hung it in the activity room, and urged the children to study when they had time.
After the infectious disease in N City is under control, the residents who moved here will go home.
When the Xiang Nuan family left in the bus, they passed by the welfare home and saw the children who were going to work in the planting camp after sunset. Seeing their chattering and happy faces, there was a little envy in their eyes.
Xiang's mother, who was sitting next to her, said: "Are these the children from Ci'en Welfare Home? They haven't found their parents and relatives yet? How pitiful!"
Xiang's mother said casually, then turned to scold her son in the back row: "Why have you been so restless recently? Your dad doesn't go to the assigned work. He lies in the room all day doing nothing. He's not happy to go home. Thats it.
Xiangyang said "hmm" weakly, his mind was in a mess.
He doesnt know why he cant get excited. He always feels that life after rebirth shouldnt be like this.
His original plan was to start a vigorous career, instead of running around with his family just to survive like he is now...
