Xiaonian's family of three were a little nervous, especially when facing the camera. Fortunately, one of the visitors was Tan Jin'er, whom they were familiar with. With Tan Jin'er's comfort, they gradually let go of their nervousness and started chatting with them.
When talking about Xiaonian's parents, Xiaonian's grandfather made an excuse and asked Xiaonian to play in the yard, but he couldn't leave the yard.
After watching Xiaonian leave, they chatted about Xiaonian's parents.
I didn't let Xiaonian hear it because I didn't want the child to be sad when he heard the news about his parents.
Tan Jin'er felt deeply about it, and didn't her Xi'er feel the same way?
When Xi'er was younger, she didn't dare mention her parents in front of Xi'er.
Xiaonian's parents died not long after she was born, and she has been dependent on her grandparents since she was a child. This child has a hard life.
Tan Jin'er chatted with them for a long time. It was completely dark outside the house. Xiaonian's house was located in a very remote location deep in Huangjia Village. At night, the surrounding area was very quiet, with only a few sparse street lights dimly lit.
After the interview, Tan Jiner and others left.
The two old men sent them out and kept them at the entrance of the alley. Tan Jin'er repeatedly urged them to go back and there was no need to send them more.
The three of them watched them leave. Even at the last moment, Xiaonian's grandparents did not ask whether the application could be successful.
It's not that they don't want to know, they definitely hope that the application will be successful, but they know that this requires a process and takes time, and Tan Jin'er can't give them an accurate answer, so don't embarrass others.
Whether it succeeds or not, it's up to fate, Xiaonian's grandfather said, and took his wife back home. Xiaonian followed behind and closed the courtyard door sensibly.
At almost the same time the next day, Tan Jin'er came to visit again and told Xiaonian's grandparents the good news, that is, Xiaonian's application had been approved.
Because it was the first recipient of funding after the foundation was established, the review and approval process was very fast, and the entire process was completed in one day.
Xiaonian’s grandparents were very surprised. They didn’t expect the results to come out so quickly. After confirming again and again, they kept thanking Tan Jiner.
Tan Jin'er smiled and said that she didn't dare to take it. She was just a staff member and she was not the one who paid.
Tan Jin'er made it clear to them: "From now on, Xiaonian's tuition and tuition and miscellaneous fees will be paid by the fund until she is admitted to college and graduates."
The two old men expressed their gratitude profusely. After seeing off Tan Jin'er, they looked at each other in silence, with mixed feelings in their hearts and tears streaming down their faces.
The biggest concern in their hearts has finally been settled. They are already in their 70s and 80s, and they still have a few years to live. They are not afraid of death, but they are afraid that they will not grow up even if they die.
What should they do if they die and leave Xiaonian alone in this world?
The young years are their biggest concern.
They work hard not to change their poor lives.
It doesn't matter how miserable their lives are.
They work hard just to save money for Xiaonian's future. If one day they really die, at least Xiaonian will still have money to study and can continue to study.
They didn't make much money, so they lived frugally and saved only a little bit over the years.
Now, the Little Red Horse Charity Fund will support Xiaonian to study in college. A big stone has fallen in their hearts, which has relieved their burden.
From now on, they only need to work hard to save living expenses for Xiaonian.
"Xiao Nian, you must study hard in the future and repay Boss Zhang."
When I was young, I was ignorant. I understood a little, but not much.
She nodded solemnly.
In order to thank Boss Zhang, they came to Little Red Horse Academy in the evening of the next day, saying that they wanted to find Boss Zhang and asked Lao Li to pass on a message.
And they stood in the yard, looking quite cramped.
They come to this place often and pick up Xiaonian every day, but today they are here to give gifts, which they are not used to.
Zhang Tan had just finished dinner when he heard that Xiaonian's grandparents were looking for him downstairs. He quickly came down with Lao Li, followed by the curious Xiaobai and Xi'er.
Seeing Zhang Tan appear, Xiaonian's grandparents once again expressed their gratitude and handed a plastic bag to Zhang Tan.
Only then did Zhang Tan realize what was going on. He took the plastic bag and was told that it was a thank you gift given to him.
Inside was a carton of cigarettes, which cost a few thousand dollars, so they had to grit their teeth to buy them.
At the same time, Xiaonian brought a big lunch box with pork dumplings made by them, which were still hot.
Zhang Tan accepted the dumplings and returned the cigarette.
No matter what Xiaonian's grandparents said, he refused to accept it. Not only did he not accept it, he also took them to the tobacco and alcohol store where they bought it, returned the cigarettes, and got the money back.
The two elderly people were persuaded by Zhang Tan to return home, while Xiaonian stayed at Little Red Horse Academy.
When Zhang Tan came back, he found that Xiaonian was also at home, along with Xiaobai, Xiaobai and Xi'er.
Four children were sitting at the dining table, eating dumplings.
Seeing Zhang Tan coming back, Xiaobai quickly called him over, then pushed the dumplings in front of him over for old man Zhang to eat.
Their little bellies were bulging. They had just eaten dinner and could no longer eat the dumplings. However, they learned that Xiaonian had specially sent it to them to thank them, so in order to prevent Xiaonian from being disappointed and misunderstood, Xiaobai and Xier agreed.
I want to eat.
They were just being polite at first, but who knew Robin Xiaobai was here. This melon boy enthusiastically invited Xiaonian home and said he wanted to eat together.
This was very painful for Xiaobai and Xi'er. They continued to eat while holding on to their stomachs, pretending that it tasted delicious and had to finish it all in one go!!!
Of course, the little aunt would not let go of Gua Wa Zi, so she called Xiao Xiaobai to eat together, regardless of Xiao Xiaobai saying that she was full, and if she didn't eat, she would not be giving face!
Xiao Xiaobai laughed bitterly, with a frown on her face, and her little aunt warned her that she would not leave the table tonight unless she finished the bowl in front of her.
The three of them were all competing with dumplings. When Zhang Tan came back, Xiaobai immediately gave him his bowl.
Xi'er and Xiaoxiaobai immediately followed suit and gave him their own dumplings to eat.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhang Tan was speechless. These three people were too down-to-earth, and they were all thinking the same thing.
"Can't you eat any more?"
Xiaobai quickly said: "You can eat it as much as you want, it's delicious! We like to eat it!"
After saying that, she glanced at Xiaonian, who happened to be looking over, and she quickly showed a big smile.
Xi'er and Xiao Xiaobai are not as confident as Xiao Bai. They are already withered and weak.
Xiao Xiaobai whispered: "I'm so envious of Liuliu~"
Speaking of durians, Zhang Tan suggested that they invite the durians to eat, or they could give the dumplings to the children downstairs for everyone to have a taste.
"This is made by Xiaonian and her grandparents. Of course, everyone should try the good stuff together," Zhang Tan said.
Xiaobai was so excited that she almost slapped the table. Oh, she didn't expect to say that???
"I'll serve it to the children right away."
She immediately got off the table and went downstairs with her dumplings.
Seeing this, Xi'er and Xiaoxiaobai also carried their own dumplings and went to find helpers.
Xiaonian went downstairs with them.
With the strength of many people, it took less than ten minutes for the three bowls of dumplings to be swept away, and even the soup and water were drunk.
Guang Liuliu ate five large dumplings by herself, and this was assuming she had dinner.
Liuliu ate so happily that she called Xiaonian over, praised her, and asked if her family specializes in making dumplings, otherwise why would they be so delicious?
This weird way of complimenting people is really special.
However, it may not be a compliment, but it may be that you really think it is delicious and want to eat it again.
Xiaobai and the other three took the empty bowls home, washed them, and then cleaned the big lunch box for Xiaonian's dumplings, and filled it with various fruits and snacks, including grapes, cherries, and beef jerky.
The bear biscuits were kept until they couldn't be stuffed any more. They put them in a handbag, carried them by Xiao Xiaobai, and returned them to Xiao Nian downstairs.
