Rotten fruits

Jenny was also very confused about her feeling to Henry. She didn't know if she was just curious about this man, or she had a little bit of crush on him, as if she wanted to see him at all times.

She took out her mobile phone and clicked on the screen. She pressed Henry's phone number with her slender fingers, but she did not press the call button for a long time.

At this moment, a crisp cheer sounded beside her ears.

"Brother Henry, here comes Brother Henry."

"Brother Henry, I want to hug you."

"Wow, is this for me? Thank you Brother Henry."

The children's voices of joy came constantly.

A look of joy appeared on Jenny's pretty face. She turned her head and saw Henry picking up a child and throwing him up forcefully. The child had a happy smile.

"Miss Qin, you're here too." Henry waved to Jenny and greeted her.

Jenny's heart was beating wildly. The girl's reserved attitude made her just nod to Henry. "Well, I haven't seen you for a long time."

"Haha, I'm a little busy recently. I'll go to see the Dean first," Henry put the little fellow in his arms on the ground and ran to the house to chat with Dean Cui.

In Henry's eyes, Dean Cui was his parent. When he did things unscrupulously or when he killed countless people, he would take the time to call Dean Cui and report that he was safe.

If Sylvia was regarded as an angel that Henry met when he was the most helpless, then the welfare home was his safe haven. In Henry's heart, this place held a very important position.

Henry and Dean Cui chatted casually. He looked at Dean Cui's gray hair and his eyes were full of helplessness. Dean Cui had worked for the children for a lifetime. She neither had no children nor got married until now. She devoted her whole life to the welfare home.

"Dean, in fact, you can find someone to take over your work, and you can enjoy your life." Henry persuaded sincerely.

It was not the first time for Henry to make such a proposal. Every time, Dean Cui smiled and told him that she was living a peaceful life in her old age. The Spring Residential Home was her home. Watching the children grow up was her happiest thing. She could accept any upcoming things, but it was just that she worried about these children.

Henry couldn't say anything about such a kind old woman. He was glad that he had met such a good person as Dean Cui when he was a child.

After chatting with Dean Cui, Henry just walked to the big yard of the welfare home when he heard a noise from the children, as well as Jenny's angry comments.

"What's going on?" Henry frowned. He saw that the children were in the courtyard, rummaging through boxes of exquisitely packed fruits. From the packing boxes, they looked like high-grade goods, but most of the fruits in the boxes were rotten or wilted. Even when some boxes were opened, the bottom was full of water.

At the gate of the welfare home, there was a truck with a red cross sign.

It was from this car that those rotten fruits were moved out

"Hey, they're here again," Dean Cui stooped and walked to Henry. Her wrinkled face was full of helplessness. "These people are branches of the Red Cross. Our welfare institution has always been on the rescue list. But now, hey, you've seen these fruits. The package looks good, but in fact, the things inside can't be eaten at all. Every time they came here, they just took a photo and then left. Once I was not here, and the banana which had been rotten was eaten by a child. Fortunately, the kid was sent to the hospital in time, otherwise, hey.."

When she said this, Dean Cui couldn't bear to continue, and her eyes reddened. Looking at these lively and lovely children, Dean Cui really felt wrong for them.

"This is outrageous!" Henry clenched his fists. "Dean, we must make them give an explanation for this matter. As far as I know, the welfare center's monthly help amount should be a thousand yuan, right? They only come once a month?"

"Good boy, you are still young, and there are some things you don't understand." Dean Cui patted Henry on the shoulder. "The monthly help is about a thousand yuan, but it will be good if children can get three hundred yuan. In this world, ah..."

"It's gone too far!" Henry strode towards the truck.

He happened to run into Jenny, who was walking back. She had just finished arguing with the driver of the truck. Needless to say, it was also because of the fruits.

As soon as Jenny saw Henry's gloomy face, she knew what he was going to do. She grabbed Henry's arm and shook her head. "Forget it. He's only responsible for delivering goods. What's inside has nothing to do with him."

Henry frowned and looked at the truck driving away.

He asked, "Do you know which company they belong to?"

"It's said that it's the branch organization of the Red Cross Association, but we have to ask someone to inquire about the details. I'll ask someone to check it now," as she said this, Jenny took out her mobile phone and made a call.

Henry tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart. He would never let the matter go today. Even if the truck came to deliver fruits today and gave less to the children, he could bear it. But if he sent a pile of bad fruits, he couldn't bear it! They did not take the children's health seriously at all. How could this be a help? How could they have the face to say that they were doing charity?

"My children, don't eat these fruits anymore. I'll send you some more fresh fruit later, okay?" Jenny looked at the children carefully choosing the fruits that could still be eaten, and she felt a burst of heartache.

The other children of the same age, at their age, enjoyed the care of their parents, and they were the hearts of the whole family. But what about them?

Fruit, they could only eat these bad ones. At the bottom of the fruit box, the turbid water exuded a thick stench, but the children didn't care it at all.

Obviously, they had already been used to it.

"Jenny, you are a good girl. Don't spend any more money. You take care of these children for a while, but you can't take care of them for the rest of their life. How many welfare centers are there in the country? Can you care about all of them?" Dean Cui's eyes were red. The scene made her feel very uncomfortable.

But what could they do if they didn't feel well? This was the truth. All the children could do was adapt to it.

"L." Jenny opened her mouth and didn't know how to answer Dean Cui. She understood that Dean Cui was right. She could help them for a while, but she couldn't help them forever. There were so many welfare homes in the country, how much could she help them?

"Dean Cui is right. You can't help these children for a lifetime, so what we can do is to solve the problem from the root." Henry waved his mobile phone to Jenny and said. "Let's go. I've found this branch unit. You drive."

Jenny nodded. They said goodbye to Dean Cui and left the welfare home.
