On the football field, several children were playing football. Some of those children had sound limbs, while others were missing lower limbs or arms, but they were playing happily together.
"Dear Sister Emma, this is Mr. Shi Zhijian from Shinhwa Company."
Qiu Jiawen introduced Shi Zhijian to the person in charge of the Disabled Persons Aid Association.
Sister Emma's original name is "Zhang Fengqin", which is a very common name for Chinese women.
Ten years ago, Zhang Fengqin was just an ordinary country woman who smuggled herself to Hong Kong. Her husband died while she was smuggled into Hong Kong, and she was taken in by the Catholic Church alone.
At first, Zhang Fengqin was only worried about two things at the church. First, whether the pig she raised in her hometown had piglets; second, whether the church would distribute bread today.
In order to survive, Zhang Fengqin forgot about her pig, just to be able to distribute bread. Later, she changed her name to Emma and became a nun.
Zhang Fengqin, who changed her name to "Emma", first worked in a relief station led by the Catholic Church, during which she helped many poor people in distress. Later, she joined the Disabled Persons Relief Association and began to help more people in need.
Emma is an emotional person. When she encounters difficulties, she seeks more help from the people around her instead of blindly praying and praying.
Even when meeting some poor disabled children, she would cry instead of saying in a compassionate tone that this was God's punishment for her.
Therefore, Sister Emma is more like a mother to these disabled people than a nun.
And Emma also treats every defective child as her own.
Although Qiu Jiawen introduced Shi Zhijian in detail, Emma still looked at Shi Zhijian with a very wary look.
"What exactly is Mr. Shi's business?"
"It's mainly food. If Sister, you are willing, I can donate 30,000 yuan in supplies here."
"I'm a little surprised that Mr. Shi is so generous. To be honest, does Mr. Shi have any special requests?"
I have been working here for a long time, and Emma has never seen anyone.
Many people talk about benevolence and morality and say they want to help these disabled people, but they soon show their shameless faces and trick the disabled children here into working outside, depriving them of their wages and exploiting their hard-earned money.
What's more, it's pitiful enough for some beautiful girls to work in such a dirty place, but God still refuses to let them go.
Shi Zhijian didn't expect Sister Emma to be so vigilant. Fortunately, he was alert and asked Qiu Jiawen to help lead the way, otherwise he might not even be able to get in here.
Facing Sister Emma's question at this moment, Shi Zhijian did not answer, but looked at Qiu Jiawen.
Qiu Jiawen understood that a good person will do it to the end, so she told Shi Zhijian's purpose this time.
When she heard that Shi Zhijian wanted to find a young, beautiful girl with dance skills to dance at the charity night, Sister Emma's expression froze for a moment, then relaxed.
"Is this Mr. Shi? I have listened to Secretary Qiu's introduction and understand what you mean. I know best who Secretary Qiu is. She rarely takes the initiative to help others. You seem to be a very nice person."
With a "bang" sound, a football was suddenly kicked over and rolled to Sister Emma's feet.
"Sister Emma, ball! Our ball!"
The children shouted, waving their arms at her.
Sister Emma smiled, stopped talking, bent down to pick up the football, and kicked it away skillfully!
The football "bang" fell right into the middle of the children, and the children started playing happily again.
"Where did I just talk? Oh, by the way, Mr. Shi, it's not that I don't trust you. I just want to know one thing. Why do you want to do charity? What is charity in your eyes?"
Shi Zhijian was stunned for a moment and replied: "I do charity with both public and selfish motives. The public motive is to help more people in need. The selfish motive is to use charity to become famous and join the upper class society. I don't know if this answer is right for you.
satisfy?"
Sister Emma was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Shi Zhijian to be so honest.
"As for what charity is, I think it is better to teach people how to fish than to teach them how to fish. If you can't solve the basic problem, no matter how much money you donate, it will be useless. Many people with disabilities can fully integrate into society because they are strong and physically strong.
Use your own hands and wisdom to support yourself. So true charity is respect, not charity.”
"Real charity is respect, not charity?" Sister Emma was stunned for a moment.
Even Qiu Jiawen on the side was stunned by Shi Zhijian's shocking words.
The more contact she had with Shi Zhijian, the less she could understand him.
"Of course, if you are willing, Sister Emma, I have actually had an idea for a long time to recruit some disabled people to work in my factory."
What Shi Zhijian said was true. In his previous life, there was an instant noodle factory called Baixiang that recruited many disabled people as workers. This factory was also known as "the most caring factory."
Sister Emma was moved when she heard this. She is old now, and what she is most worried about is the future of these disabled children.
If they can support themselves with their hands, then she can let go of the biggest stone in her heart.
"Is it true, Mr. Shi? If that's the case, I must thank you on behalf of the children!"
"No, it's me who wants to thank you. You are a competent nun and a qualified mother!"
While everyone was talking, a child with a disabled arm quickly ran over and yelled: "Sister Emma! Something happened! Something big happened! There was a fight between the dance team and the choir!"
"Ah, what?" Sister Emma was shocked.
…
The rescue club's practice room.
A group of girls were fighting together, and some children nearby were trying to break up the fight.
"Stop fighting, everyone, stop fighting! The nun is coming soon! Everyone, please stop!"
There were two or three deaf-mute children nearby who were gesticulating to those who were fighting and trying to break up the fight.
"Stop! What are you doing?" Sister Emma came to the scene and yelled.
Only then did the two fighting groups let go.
Sister Emma glared at them, and the girls separated on both sides, hands behind their backs, heads lowered, waiting to be criticized.
"Who will tell me why you are fighting?" Sister Emma asked with a straight face.
A girl on the left said: "Our choir members want to use the practice room, but their dance team members are rushing to use it!"
At this time, a person on the right stood up and gestured with his hands: "We were here first! And today is Sunday, and there is no "occupied" sign on the door, so whoever comes first will use it first!"
"Who said it's first come, first served? It's obviously ours to use today, we applied for the right to use it!" the girl on the left said dissatisfied.
Sister Emma figured out that the girls were fighting over the practice room.
