?  Chapter 650 The Kind Zhou Manting (2 updates on the 11th)

A group of children surrounded Zhou Manting in the middle and kept talking. "《". From the excited expression on the children's faces, it can be seen that they really like her.

Mu Fei can also see that Zhou Manting also likes these children very much.

Although there were more than a dozen of these children, she could prepare to call out the names of these children, vote for their names, and ask them different questions.

Moreover, these children were really not clean. They touched Zhou Manting's clothes with their black hands. Her clothes and shorts were dirty, and she didn't care at all.

Seeing this scene, Mu Fei couldn't help but look up at Zhou Manting in his heart: I didn't expect this guy to be a caring person...

Zhou Manting was chatting with these children, and a fat, white and fat middle-aged woman in her thirties emerged from the dilapidated two-story building.

Although this woman has no appearance, she has kind eyebrows and a smiling face. When she sees her, she feels that this person is very kind and easy to approach.

However, her head seemed to be not very good, her eyelids were half drooping, and her eyes were a little dark.

When she came out, she saw Zhou Manting playing with the children, she grinned and greeted, "Tingting, you are back..."

Zhou Manting looked back and smiled, "Oh, Auntie Baobao..."

Then, Zhou Manting said to the children around her, "You go and play, I'll talk to Aunt Baobao..."

But these children couldn't bear to leave her.

"No, you're just back, just play with us..."

"Yes, Sister Tingting, you haven't played poker with us for a long time..."

"Also, you said you would play football with me...

These children surrounded her and refused to let her go.

"You little kids, Aunt Bao Bao and I are talking about serious business, very important things. I don't have time to play with you now..." Zhou Manting pointed at these children and said.

After hearing Zhou Manting's words, the children could only give way to Zhou Manting, but their little faces were written with helplessness.

"Oh... I really can't do anything to you..." Zhou Manting sighed lightly and pointed at Mu Fei, "If you want to play, find him. His name is Mu Fei, and he is my sister's friend..."

After Zhou Manting said that, she waved her hand to Mu Fei, pointed at the children, signaling him to recover and take care of the children, and then left.

Although those children loved Zhou Manting very much, they had completely different attitudes towards Mu Fei. They all looked at Mu Fei, then turned their heads and dispersed themselves, completely ignoring Mu Fei.

Mu Fei stood there alone, a gust of wind blew down two fallen leaves, looking desolate.

Damn, are you wrong? You are so kind to Zhou Manting and so cold to me...

I remember my buddy’s children are very good. Most children like me and love to play with me. But what’s wrong with these children? They are so personal, right? Isn’t they completely ignore me?

He was a little depressed, and he felt that his self-esteem was challenged.

'You little guys, you don't pay attention to me? If you can't handle you, then you'll be in vain...' Mu Fei thought to look at the children.

Then, he looked around and saw two children watching a book called "Fifty Introductory Magic", and were practicing with wooden sticks and sticks.

Seeing this, Mu Fei smiled and walked towards the two children.

...

"Aunt Baobao, you have lost a lot of weight..." Zhou Manting asked, looking at Aunt Baobao.

"Oh~~ It turns out that the dean and I were taking care of twelve children. But now there are twenty-seven children living here, and the dean and I are still busy, how can we not lose weight?" Aunt Baobao responded, then pointed to Mu Fei's direction, "Tingting, that's your boyfriend?"

"Where is there? Friends, just ordinary friends..."

Zhou Manting's pretty face turned red, thinking that she really was my boyfriend... It's so good.

Unfortunately, the famous grass has a master...

When I saw Zhou Manting blushing, how could Aunt Bao Bao not see that there was any problem?

She smiled meaningfully, "It's really not your boyfriend? Tingting, you're blushing..."

Zhou Manting was immediately embarrassed and angry, "Aunt Baobao, can you not be so gossipy? Now that little boy from Xiaoshitou has been brought to you and turned into a 'little gossip'. Be careful not to bring bad kids..."

As she said that, she quickly changed the topic, "Also, don't worry about my problem first. You guys quickly tell me about the matter in the yard. I heard from Xiao Shitou that the funds allocated from above are less?"

"Oh~~"

When the welfare home was mentioned, Aunt Bao Bao immediately looked sad and was in no mood to joke.

She sighed and said, "You know that the size of our welfare home is usually to take in at most sixteen children. So the above are also based on the relief funds allocated to the sixteen children..."

"But now, we have a total of twenty-seven children. It is difficult enough to use the expenses of these sixteen children to support twenty-seven children. But just two months ago, a document was posted, saying that the funds were short of funds, and the relief funds were reduced by 20%..."

"Now, our welfare home will make it even worse..."

The funds were reduced by 20%, which means that the relief funds originally used by sixteen children can only support twelve of them now.

The money for twelve children is given to twenty-seven children, and the financial shortage can be imagined.

"I really don't know what those officials are doing..." Zhou Manting muttered and asked Aunt Baobao, "What's the situation now?"

"How to say it~~ Thanks to the 2,000 yuan you sent every month, these children can at least have enough food now, but these children have never been exposed to meat stars in a month..."

"And, it's going to be settled now. If it's still the same next quarter, it's going to be troublesome. In autumn, these children have to buy thick clothes and burn coal in winter. I don't know where to get the money..." Aunt Baobao said, looking at the thin children around him, and the pity in his eyes was beyond words.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it for now..."

Speaking of this, Aunt Bao Bao waved her hand and pointed to the direction inside the two-story building. "The dean was so tired that he had a little cold. He was waiting for you inside, let's go in and talk..."

I was very happy to see these children Zhou Manting, but when I think of the situation in the welfare home, I couldn't feel happy at all.

After hearing Aunt Baobao's words, she nodded and the two walked into the room.

...

"Children, do you like magic?"

Mu Fei approached the two children who were following the books to make magic and asked with a smile.

The two children looked up at Mu Fei, ignored him, and then lowered their heads to learn from the book.

"Actually, I will do magic too. Do you want to take a look..." Mu Fei said again.

The two children still ignored him.

Mu Fei was not angry, and he didn't care about the two children. He took out a coin and started performing on his own.

"Look, this is one dollar, I hold it with my right hand, and then...

"Ba~"

While Mu Fei was speaking, he snapped his fingers and opened his right hand. The coins in his hand were gone, and his palms were empty, "Look, that dollar is gone..."

“Wow~~”

The two boys opened their eyes wide in surprise.

Seeing this scene, Mu Fei knew that his goal had been achieved.

"Do you want to know where the money went?" Mu Fei smiled and asked the two boys.

The two children didn't want to pay attention to Mu Fei, but they couldn't bear the curiosity in their hearts. After looking at each other, they nodded.

Mu Fei reached out to a boy's ear and snapped his fingers again. He opened his hand and the money was lying quietly in his hand.

"Wow, brother, you are so awesome..."

"So amazing? How did you do it..."

Now, the two boys were really shocked by Mu Fei, and their little faces were full of excitement.

"Do you want to learn? I will teach you..." Mu Fei replied with a smile.

With the yelling of these two magic-loving children, more and more children came over to watch Mu Fei's performance. With a little trick in Mu Fei, he successfully "invaded the enemy".

I have to say that Mu Fei is quite a childish person. With his contact with these children, he quickly became the center of these children.

Mu Fei was not idle when he was playing with them, and asked about the children from time to time.

But the living conditions of these children made him sigh, they were too hard.

This welfare home has no conditions to let them go to school like other children, and the dean does not allow them to go out too far. It can be said that the second-story building and this small courtyard are all their worlds.

Because I am afraid of electricity consumption, I can watch TV normally, let alone game consoles. Computers and snacks? Sorry, that is just something that exists in the "Legend".

There are two times they are most looking forward to, from 8:30 to 10:30 in the morning, the old dean gives them the time to class. From 6:00 to 8:00 in the evening, they can watch TV.

At other times, they can pass the time with used books donated by others and outdated toys that are broken and cannot be broken.

As for what they eat, they are even more "not sure about the taste of meat". Every day, they are all full of various vegetable leaves, which is environmentally friendly.

In short, the quality of life of children in this welfare home is just three words - not to starve to death.

Alas... I don't know what the officials of the "relevant departments" are doing when these children can't even eat...

Mu Fei sighed in his heart.

Just as Mu Fei was thinking, another little boy was shaking Mu Fei's arm, "Brother Mu Fei, do magic for us again..."

Mu Fei smiled at him, "You guys play for yourself first. I'm tired. Can you let me rest for a while? I'll play with you when I have the chance..."

After all, these children are not as familiar with Mu Fei as Zhou Manting.
