After about an hour's drive, Chen Liangshan finally saw the sign on the side of the road, and the last 200 meters away from the Northern Suburb Orphanage.

The two children were tired of playing in the back seat, so they leaned on the seat and chatted together.

"Xiao Yue, do you have to go so far every day to go to school?"

"Well, it's so far away, but it's not all about walking! You can go directly to the school gate by taking the bus!"

Chen Liangshan heard the chat between the two children, but he knew that just about 10 minutes ago, he had already passed the last bus terminal.

Judging from the current speed of 50km/h, it can drive about 8 kilometers in 10 minutes. So Liu Xiaoyue now needs to walk for one and a half hours to get to the bus station just by going to school every day.

Such hard work is unbearable for an adult, not to mention the 10-year-old child in front of him.

What did you do? No matter how much Liu Xiaoyue made a mistake, she should never bear the suffering she is now.

When he thought that this situation was caused by his own hands, Chen Liangshan's hand holding the steering wheel began to tremble slightly.

Soon, Chen Liangshan parked his car outside the fence gate of the orphanage. After Liu Xiaoyue thanked Chen Liangshan politely, she quickly got out of the car and ran in.

Chen Liangshan suddenly wanted to know what kind of life Liu Xiaoyue lived now. He wanted to know if the child had a good relationship with his partners in the orphanage, whether he ate well every day, whether he lived well, and whether he had enough money to spend.

So he opened the car door and walked down, and came to the rusty fence door and looked inside.

It can be seen that this is definitely a very poor orphanage. In this desolate and barren land, a small yard was built with only bricks, with several simple brick and tile houses inside. The kitchen at the end was still the oldest wood-fired stove, and the surrounding walls had already been smoked into dirty black by the smoke.

There are about a dozen children in the yard who are helping with their work. The youngest of these children are just starting to stagger, and the oldest should be as old as a teenager.

But no matter how old you are, every child here is helping with work. The younger ones go to clean the yard, and the older ones go to the kitchen to add firewood and boil water.

Looking at this group of busy children, Chen Liangshan finally understood why Liu Xiaoyue had to finish her homework at school every day before she could come back, because every child here had to work and contributed his own strength to this not-so-home family. He had no time to do his homework.

Although I don’t know if this is unfortunate, Chen Liangshan found that the faces of these worn-out children had already lost the immatureness and beauty that should be at this age. Their words and deeds seemed to be like adults. Even the hostility that the oldest boy exuded when he spoke was made Chen Liangshan feel palpitations.

"Liu Xiaoyue, you slow turtle! Is it because I come back so late every day just to not want to work?"

"Tell you Liu Xiaoyue, there is no free meal in the world! If you come back so late, get out and don't come back!"

"Hurry up and help build the stove (making a fire)! I'll be sluggish all day long! I don't have money, strength, and strength! I don't know what the old man raises you for!"

Liu Xiaoyue was scolded by the older child and seemed very scared. She quickly walked into one of the dormitories, threw her schoolbag and ran out, kneeled next to the wood stove in the kitchen, and skillfully fanned it with a paper shell.

Just when Chen Liangshan was blaming the director of the orphanage for being irresponsible, he found that an older woman in her 50s walked out of the public toilet at the end of the yard.

The grandma had a strawberry-sized wrinkle on her lower lips, which looked like it was unwashed mud from a distance.

However, the rogue lady had a pair of thick arms, and could directly carry the black pot with a diameter of about 1 meter and walk step by step from the toilet at the end to the kitchen. The big black pot was filled with water, and some scattered vegetable leaves were floating above it. (Note)

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"

The rogue lady walked into the kitchen with a pot, put it on the stove with a "bang", and then shouted at the top of her voice: "Hurry it all! Clean up the yard! Don't eat tonight if anyone can't finish his work!"

This voice is like an imperial edict to the children. Every child begins to tense up, fearing that he will be slow to work and will have no food to eat at night.

Looking at the pale and thin children in the orphanage, Chen Liangshan felt uncomfortable, so he pushed open the fence door and walked in.

The rogue lady glanced at Chen Liangshan, lowered her head and continued to cook, and asked casually: "Who are you?"

"I am……"

Chen Liangshan suddenly stopped halfway through his words. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, not knowing how to introduce himself. However, Nannan got off the car at some point and replied loudly behind her: "Hello grandma! I am Liu Xiaoyue's classmate!"

"Xiao Yue's classmate?"

When the rogue heard this, he turned his head and looked at Nannan. He found that the other party was wearing the same school uniform as Liu Xiaoyue, and then smiled at Liu Xiaoyue, who was kneeling under the stove and fanning the fire, saying, "Oh! Xiaoyue, I thought it was your relative who came to pick you up!"

But after the brute lady finished speaking, she immediately smiled jokingly again and said to herself: "Hi! What can you do if you are a relative? The girl's family is a money-losing product. Who would like to adopt you?"

Just as the other party said these words, Liu Xiaoyue kept lowering her head and silent.

Seeing this, Chen Liangshan also said to the other party: "Sister, I want to talk to you."

"What are you talking about!"

The erotic woman wiped the sweat from her face and complained: "I'm so busy with these ungrateful wolves all day long. How can I have so much free time to chat with you! I really don't have the ability to see you!"

Chen Liangshan smiled and said, "Yes, it's really tiring to take care of these children. Then I'll wait here and sit down and chat with you when you have time."

After saying that, Chen Liangshan led Nannan to the door, but heard the whisper suddenly shouting from behind: "Wait a minute!"

Chen Liangshan turned around and found that the other party was still busy on the stove, but he thrust his mouth at Nannan and said, "I've come here, let your little Ni'er have dinner together, but there is too little food, so I won't be enough for you! Hey! Xiaoyue, go and add a pair of chopsticks!"

...

After dinner, the children began to get busy again. The older children each carried a bucket to the public toilet to fetch water. After returning, they sat in a row to wash dishes and chopsticks. The younger children stood on the stools and wiped the table with difficulty.

The rogue woman came to the dormitory next to the kitchen, put down a bowl on the table, which contained a warm steamed bun and said, "Here! I saved you from the children."

"Oh, no trouble..."

"Eat quickly!" The lady of Fengzi pushed the bowl against Chen Liangshan again, and said in an unquestionable tone: "I have something to say after I finish eating. I will take your girl back early. It's still a long way from the city!"

"Okay, thank you!" Chen Liangshan smiled and ate the steamed buns, then asked, "Sister, why is that child Liu Xiaoyue here?"

The rogue lady lit a cigarette and started smoking, responding, "What's wrong with this? It's better to be here than to freeze to death and starve to death outside!"

"No, no, you misunderstood me." Chen Liangshan hurriedly explained: "I mean, where is Liu Xiaoyue's family?"

Li Zi Po: "She is only one father, she is dead, but I heard that there is another relative from afar. As for the life or death of that relative, I don't know. Anyway, he sent Xiaoyue here."

Chen Liangshan: "He? Who are you talking about him?"

"Who else can it be!" The rogue sighed and said, "Since Xiaoyue's father died, this child has no relatives. Later, a man named Liu Qiang adopted her."

Chen Liangshan said to himself: "Liu Qiang? Who is he?"

The sage lady said, "Liu Qiang is a subordinate of Liu Xiaoyue's father. It is said that she is the deputy general manager of her father's company. She was very kind to her after adopting Xiaoyue at first, but after only raising her for less than a month, she threw Xiaoyue away from me."

As the woman talked, she had a sad look in her eyes and said, "But I know that Liu Qiang is a bad guy! She also followed Xiao Yue's father's butt to catch some oil and water, but then she started to make a fuss! She started doing bad things!"

After the sage lady finished speaking, she changed her mind and said again.

——"Don't think that I, an old woman, have no ability, but you young people's colorful intestines can clearly see in my eyes."

——"I can see at a glance that Liu Qiang's kid is not in good faith. It must be about Xiaoyue's father's property, otherwise he would never have been so kind to adopt Xiaoyue, the girl!"

——"But then again, Xiao Yue is still very pitiful. She has lost her father at a young age. Now she is running here every few days when she is in debt. Every time she comes, she scares Xiao Yue very much. Those guys... are like vampires, and they can't even drive them away!"

Chen Liangshan frowned and said, "What kind of debt do you want? What kind of debt do you want?"

"What else can it be?" The savage lady crushed the cigarette butt and said, "I heard that Xiaoyue's father built an auditorium for the school and did not pay for it. As a result, the person is dead now. The people who work and ask for debts are directly chased by the child!"

Hearing this, Chen Liangshan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "These beasts don't even let go of children!"

The rogue woman echoed: "Who said no! Anyway, when Xiaoyue's father died, she saved some money in the bank, but it was not enough to repay the debts outside. I want to tell me! The richer the boss likes to make trouble, and the more he goes, the more he likes to owe debts. The little money he finally earns in his pocket was taken out to make money. I don't think about how good it would be to be chased by someone all day long to ask for debts?"

Chen Liangshan smiled wryly and said, "This is what you don't understand, sister. Those people like to enjoy the feeling of others begging them to pay back their own money all day long."

The rogue sighed and said, "Hey! What's the use of saying these now? You have also seen that the children in this orphanage are either orphans since childhood or disabled children. I am not well educated and cannot take care of these children well. I really don't know what they will become after they leave here in the future... Alas!"

Chen Liangshan said: "Then you have never thought about finding a teacher for these children? Wouldn't it be good to let them study here?"

"Geese, goose, goose, goose, goose..."

The rogue woman's voice was almost dead when she smiled, "You young man really stand and speak without a headache. The money in this orphanage depends on the funding of the upper house. Occasionally, she can have some social donations. It's hard enough to support these kids! She still wants to find a teacher for them? Isn't it good to have that money to add clothes to the children?"

Just as the two of them were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of the iron fence in the yard being pushed open. Then several dazzling headlights illuminated the yard in an instant, and only a rough man's voice sounded.

"Yo! My Princess Xiao Yue actually learned to wash dishes? Hahaha!"

Chen Liangshan felt something was wrong and immediately followed the rogue woman out. Two off-road vehicles drove directly into the yard. A strong man like an iron tower sat on a small stool. He reached out and hugged Liu Xiaoyue on his lap, took out a lollipop and stuffed it into the other person's mouth. His face was full of a playful smile like a gangster and said, "Haha! Does the little princess eat candy?"

The strong man spoke with a loud voice, as if he was a quarrel, and there were several fierce men following him, his eyes as big as copper bells, which scared the other children in the yard to hide far away and dared not come over.

Liu Xiaoyue curled up her thin body and closed her eyes and mouth tightly. It was obvious that she was very scared. Even her two little hands stiffly pinched her fists, stretched her arms and didn't dare to move.

But the strong man seemed to deliberately scare Liu Xiaoyue like that, and said in a rough voice: "Little princess? Your father asked us to build an auditorium and a house for you. I haven't given us a penny yet. What should you do about this?"

As expected, all the debtors were chasing this. Chen Liangshan was about to step forward, but he saw the whipped woman rushing over with a shovel at some point and cursed: "I fuck your grandma! Let her go!"

However, before the brute mother could run two steps, a man took the shovel from behind. Of course, the man who took the shovel was not so brave to fight with the old man. He just ran around the yard and smiled with a smile: "Oh! Grandma, why are you doing it! Yoh! I'll catch up immediately! Work harder!"

The slut chased after him, but he was so tired that he could only barely hold his knee that was painful and panting, saying, "Fuck...Fuck...Your grandma..."

The man held up the shovel and said with a smile: "Grandma, you can't do it? You can't run after just one run, haha..."

However, just as the man turned around, he felt a fist suddenly hit in front of him. With a muffled sound of "bang", his head was as if he was hit by a shot put. A very salty smell came from his nose, mixed with a hot stream gushing out.

About a second later, the pain of the shattered nose bones spread throughout the body. The man fell to the ground in pain, but reached out to touch the nose that was tilted to the side, and wailed like crying: "Nose! Nose! This guy broke my nose!"

The strong man holding Liu Xiaoyue was shocked. He never expected that the unpretentious man in front of him would be able to kill him in a fight and put him on his brother with one punch.

But what surprised him even more was that Liu Jianren clearly told him that there was only an old woman in the orphanage, but where did this man come from?

However, after collecting the money, you have to do things. The strong man had to bite the bullet and order the few remaining brothers around him: "Go! Kill me..."

But before he could say the word "kill him" he saw Chen Liangshan without saying anything extra nonsense. He bent down and picked up the shovel on the ground, and walked towards him with fierce eyes.

The shovel was dragged on the ground with a "crack" sound, which made the strong man feel numb. He had seen the strength of the man in front of him. If he was really brought by a shovel wheel like this, at least half of his head would be cut off.

"Oh my god!"

The brothers around him went up to fight. When they saw Chen Liangshan's posture, they were already scared to the point of swelling. They ignored the brothers who were knocked to the ground and ran towards the car at the door.

Seeing this, the strong man dared not to confront the other party head-on, so he left Liu Xiaoyue and ran outward. But after only a few steps, a shovel suddenly came across in front of him.

Chen Liangshan grabbed the other party's collar and dragged the other party to the man whose nose was broken, and sternly said: "Take him away!"

"Okay, okay!" The strong man said a little more at this time, and directly raised his brother from the ground and walked out.

However, before the two of them could reach the door, they suddenly saw another man rushing in. The man was wearing a straight suit and a white scarf around his neck, dressed like Xu Wenqiang in the 1930s.

"Ha! Where did you come from the ruffian? How dare you bully my Xiaoyue!"

The scarf man stepped forward and fisted at the two of them, shouting loudly while beating: "You scoundrels! If you dare to bully Xiaoyue again! Believe it or not, I will beat you to death!"

The scarf man yelled loudly and his movements were very exaggerated, but he was weak in fist and kicking, and he felt like he was acting when he was fighting. The strong man on the other side kept pointing to the yard and whispering: "No...No...No...Some people..."

"Ahh? Do you dare to bring people here? Let me tell you! No matter how many people you bring, don't think of bullying my Xiaoyue!"

Chen Liangshan looked at the man's exaggerated acting skills and felt embarrassed that he had goose bumps all over his body. However, Nannan also came over at this time, pinched her hand, and whispered: "Dad, these people are all in the same group. They are acting. Don't be deceived!"

Even the kids could see, not to mention Chen Liangshan, so he threw away the shovel in his hand, touched Nannan's head, and whispered: "Don't worry, baby, there are acting in the adult world."
