The afterglow of the setting sun passed through the shades of trees and scattered on the mottled red brick walls. The noisy orphanage became much quieter.
As for meals, both the children and the staff of the orphanage are preparing to have dinner together in the cafeteria.
But today, there are a group of people missing in the canteen.
Dean Lin led several employees, not even bothering to eat, and hurriedly searched for Li Jie's figure.
Although Li Jie is not the only deaf-mute in the Red Star Welfare Home, he is the most special one.
The orphan of the cotton mill fire case!
This level of status alone deserves the attention of the welfare institution.
After all, the fire case had just occurred, and the public and official attention was very high. If another disappearance case broke out at this time, they would definitely be criticized.
On Malanhua Street, Lin Changxia anxiously inquired about news from nearby merchants.
"Hello, have you ever seen a child this tall?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind her.
"Dean, dean!"
Feng Dazhuang ran to Lin Changxia panting and said with a happy face.
"Child, the child has been found!"
"found it?"
Lin Changxia grabbed the other person's arm and said emotionally.
"Are they okay?"
"Where is he now?"
Feng Dazhuang quickly replied: "It's in the courtyard. By the way, it was the comrades of the municipal party committee who sent the child back."
"What?"
Lin Changxia stared and said, "Municipal Party Committee?"
"what happened?"
Feng Dazhuang scratched his head: "I don't know the specific situation. It was Sister Yang who received them. Sister Yang only told me to let you go back as soon as possible."
"Walk!"
"Go back to the courtyard!"
After saying that, Lin Changxia immediately picked up her steps and rushed towards Hongxing Road, half running and half walking.
Not long after, Lin Changxia ran back to the orphanage with a flushed face. Her heart was full of doubts.
How come someone from the municipal party committee sent it back?
It doesn’t make sense!
When she came to the reception room, she saw Li Jie at a glance. At the same time, she also noticed the silence around Li Jie, as well as Uncle Dong and the others.
"Dean, you are finally back."
Seeing Lin Changxia coming back, the middle-aged woman in her early forties immediately came forward to greet her.
"Let me introduce you."
With that said, the two came to Uncle Dong.
"This is Comrade Ren Hui from the Municipal Party Committee, and this is Uncle Dong. Fu Weijun was sent here by them."
"Hello."
"Hello!"
After some introduction, Lin Changxia finally knew the whole story.
It has to be said that when she learned that Li Jie went to the municipal party committee to complain, she couldn't help but be shocked.
At first, she thought it was a complaint against the orphanage. Fortunately, Ren Hui spoke faster. Lin Changxia immediately felt relieved when she learned that it was a complaint against Shen Dongliang.
She had met Shen Dongliang before.
To be honest, she didn't like this person very much. The first impression Shen Dongliang gave her was that he was cold-blooded.
As the only relative of 'Fu Weijun' in Songhe City, the other party actually sent 'Fu Weijun' directly to the welfare home.
Not at all impersonal.
Even if 'Fu Weijun' is a deaf-mute, aren't deaf-mute people relatives?
'Fu Weijun' is only an eight-year-old child, and a child who has just experienced the death of his parents.
People with a little bit of sympathy wouldn't send their children to an orphanage right away, right?
Is it so difficult to leave a buffer period?
After a while, after listening to the mayor's secretary's story, Lin Changxia immediately expressed her attitude.
"Please rest assured, leader, if these two children are left in my hands, I will not let them be wronged!"
In these words, Lin Changxia did not add any trace of moisture.
She already sympathized with 'Fu Weijun', and she had investigated clearly what happened before.
The conflict in the corridor was started by Xiaopang. Although 'Fu Weijun' took action, it was normal for children to fight.
Just this kind of small conflict would happen several times a week in the courtyard.
On the side, Uncle Dong was watching the whole process. The instructions from the municipal party committee were enough, and there was no need for him to express that attitude.
Instead of thinking about how to express your stance, think about how to convince your family.
"Dean Lin is a model worker in our city. The municipal party committee must be relieved. However, this kid Fu Weijun is special."
"In the future, please ask the dean to pay more attention."
Lin Changxia smiled and nodded: "Yes, yes, I treat all the children in the courtyard the same, they are just like my own children."
Later, the two sides had another daily exchange. Seeing that it was getting dark, Ren Hui said goodbye.
"Dean Lin, it's getting late. Mayor Ding is still waiting for news from here. We have to go."
Hearing this, Lin Changxia stood up quickly.
"I'll see you off."
"no, I'm fine."
Ren Hui waved his hand, then turned to look at Uncle Dong.
Although he didn't say anything, the meaning was very clear, and it was clear that he was asking what Uncle Dong meant.
"Then let's go."
With that said, Uncle Dong also stood up from the chair, but he did not move immediately. Instead, he leaned over and touched Li Jie's head.
"Little guy, the uncle is gone."
"In a few days, the uncle will come to see you again."
Here, as soon as he finished speaking, the silence sitting aside immediately conveyed Uncle Dong's meaning in sign language.
After receiving the silent reminder, Li Jie replied in sign language.
【thank you. 】
Uncle Dong looked at Shen Mo with doubts on his face: "Xiao Mo, what did he say?"
"Uncle, my brother said, thank you!"
"Ha ha."
Uncle Dong laughed loudly: "You tell him, you're welcome, this is what an uncle should do."
After another tugging and a delay of about ten minutes, Uncle Dong and Ren Hui left the orphanage.
"Dazhuang, go make arrangements and prepare a bed for little Silence."
After giving instructions to Feng Dazhuang, Lin Changxia took Yang Hui and the two children to the cafeteria.
At this time, the sky was completely dark. People are like iron, and food is like steel. If they don't eat a meal, they will feel hungry. When they were still in the reception room, Lin Changxia heard the silent stomach beating.
On the way to the cafeteria, Lin Changxia said nothing and just walked silently.
She was thinking about how to settle the two children.
'Fu Weijun' is eight years old this year. He should be old enough to go to school, but because he is deaf and mute, ordinary schools are definitely not suitable for him.
However, there are currently no special education schools in Songhe City.
From now on, should 'Fu Weijun' be sent to school, or should he be placed in an orphanage to study on his own?
If it is the former, if a deaf-mute breaks into a normal school, he will most likely be bullied. Even if he is not bullied, he will inevitably get strange looks.
If it's the latter, it's okay for the welfare home to teach elementary school courses, but when it comes to middle and high school education, the welfare home won't have enough staff.
Because of this, Lin Changxia was very hesitant.
