Chapter 35
Lu Zhengyang realized.
He walked up to the man and said directly: "If you want, you can go in and have a seat. The canteen of our orphanage is pretty good."
The man was obviously stunned for a moment, he turned his head and looked at Lu Zhengyang in surprise.
Lu Zhengyang smiled very politely, and said: "The children will eat in the cafeteria. Raising children is a process that takes time to get used to. Eyes and personality are very important."
The man's appearance is undoubtedly very young, but the eyes are very easy to give away the real part.His eyes don't look like a young man in his twenties, at least in his thirties, with considerable experience.
What is the purpose of such an obviously very rich man standing at the door during lunch time, looking eagerly in the direction of the cafeteria?
Eighty-nine out of ten people want to adopt a child.
In terms of child adoption, Chinese people are not as open as foreigners.Although in the past ten years, the adoption of orphans by Chinese people has increased, but in general, Chinese people still prefer to have a child with their own blood.On the other hand, for foreigners, it costs far less to adopt a child in China than domestic adoption agencies. Families who really adopt a child are still happy to have a baby in China.
Since he was already in the orphanage, it must be Uncle Security who let him in.Rather than listening to the introduction of the staff of the orphanage, most adopters prefer to get to know the children in the orphanage by themselves and adopt a child who is close to their eyes.
Few of the children living in orphanages are as upright as Lu Zhengyang, and they are unwilling to spend time with strangers. Most of them yearn for family warmth and hope to be adopted.The orphanage under the management of Dean Lu is notoriously not afraid of investigations. During normal working hours, foreign adopters can observe no matter what.
Of course, during lunch time, the orphanage can also afford to have lunch by the way.
However, if the other party refuses, Lu Zhengyang will ignore him.
After all, he was a staff member of the orphanage by the way.
"Lu Zhengyang, I know you."
Unexpectedly, the other party spoke, but it was not the acceptance or rejection that Lu Zhengyang thought, but such a meaningful sentence.
Lu Zhengyang blinked. Could it be that he is the star of their orphanage...orphan?The best example of self-improvement, even the people who come here to adopt children know it?
"Zeyi, he values you very much."
Zeyi?
A question mark appeared on Lu Zhengyang's head.
The name seems familiar.
Uh, wait, Zeyi, Lu Zeyi, isn't that the dean's name?
Lu Zhengyang didn't notice that while he was talking to the man, the big cat squatted quietly at his feet, staring sharply and coldly at the strange man with a pair of blue eyes.After the man mentioned Zeyi's name, he glanced at the big cat at Lu Zhengyang's feet, his eyes were calm and indifferent.
"Oh...you are the dean's friend?"
"Friend?" The man smiled wryly, and said in a low voice, "Don't tell him about me."
After finishing speaking, the man turned around and walked out of the gate without looking back.When he walked to the main entrance of the orphanage, he didn't ask Wang Baoan in the security room to open the door for him. Instead, he put his hand on it and jumped directly over the electronic retractable door.
It was such an unconventional way that Wang Baoan in the security room turned a blind eye and ate his lunch from the cafeteria calmly.
Could it be... getting used to it?
As expected of the former friend of the old man.
Lu Zhengyang has reason to suspect that these two people used to have a good relationship, but now they have broken up.
Forget it, he'd better not get involved in the old man's friendship.
"Yangyang."
At this moment, there was another familiar call that made him a little helpless.
It was Aunt Zhang, who was in charge of the kitchen, and Lu Zhengyang maximized her goodwill when he was still in the orphanage. No matter how many children were sent away by the orphanage, and no matter how old Lu Zhengyang was this year, he was always the best-behaved and prettiest cub in Aunt Zhang's eyes.
"What are you doing standing there stupidly?" Aunt Zhang said in a familiar tone with reproach, "The food is getting cold. I left a steamed fish for your cat, come quickly."
Lu Zhengyang's eyes lit up, and he responded loudly: "Come here."
Lu Zhengyang, who walked towards the cafeteria with Big Cat, didn't notice that the man who had just left from the main entrance came back from the corner of the front yard.
He looked deeply at Lu Zhengyang's back.
The big cat, who was walking beside Lu Zhengyang on elegant catwalks, paused. It looked back with cold blue eyes.
Human eyes and cat eyes meet for a moment.
The man took the initiative to look away, turned and left.
The big cat walked lightly, and when it walked at Lu Zhengyang's feet, its long tail brushed against Lu Zhengyang's trousers intentionally or unintentionally.
Very possessive.
Aunt Zhang, who was in charge of the back kitchen, had a preference for Lu Zhengyang, which obviously extended directly to the big cat. She specially steamed a three-jin big carp for the big cat.
Lu Zhengyang thanked him with a smile, and then said: "Aunt Zhang, my cat's name is Lu Xi, don't meow all the time."
Although Maomao is not a rare name, three out of ten doctors in the pet hospital can call it Maomao, and the remaining seven are called Mimi, but the narrow-minded Lu Zhengyang still tries to privatize the name "Maomao".
For this, Aunt Zhang gave Lu Zhengyang a merciless ridicule.
"Yes, this cat's name is Lu Xi, but your master doesn't call it. The cat comes and goes all day long. Compared with Lu Xi, it must recognize the name of cat more."
Others call the big cat Lu Xi, but the question is, does it know that is calling it?
Lu Zhengyang was speechless, and had to admit that Aunt Zhang's words were very reasonable.
Aunt Zhang didn't let go of Lu Zhengyang's intentions, and continued: "No matter what name you name the cat, it must be either Maomao or Mimi. It's like when you named the little chicken and looked through the dictionary. Seriously, when it’s time to call chickens, Custodian just remembers to call them dicks.”
Lu Zhengyang: "... Aunt Zhang, you have worked hard, let's eat quickly."
The big cat gnawed at the fish, but nodded silently in his heart.
It seems that Aunt Zhang knows Lu Zhengyang very well.
He was the one who gave himself a name at the beginning, but when he finally called it, he was always just a cat.
Alas, I got used to it.
A cat is a cat.
The people in the orphanage obviously knew that Lu Zhengyang didn't like to play with the children. They would tell the children in the orphanage that this brother was the kind brother who sent money to help them from time to time, and even bought delicious mooncakes for everyone today. But they will also ask them not to disturb this brother and that beautiful big cat.
Lu Zhengyang led the big cat around, he seldom reminisces about the past, but now with the big cat, he subconsciously took the big cat to find places he once liked, and wanted to share with the big cat.
The big cat is a family member he recognizes, so the treatment is naturally different.
When Lu Zhengyang strolled into the backyard, he suddenly raised his eyebrows.
There is an extra tree in the backyard, right where the Saran poplar was.
The Shalan Yang tree was also unlucky, it was pulled out as a model, and cut down directly.In the huge backyard, there are only a few elms, sweet apricots and mountain cherries planted against the wall, none of which can climb.
But at this moment, there is a tall tree more than five meters high in the center of the courtyard. Between the oval leaves, clusters of red and purple fruits hang down, some of which look like big cherries.
This is a crabapple tree that has already bear fruit. The tree is obviously not young. Its trunk is straight and thick, and a grown man can barely hug it.
Lu Zhengyang raised his hand and picked a purple-red crabapple fruit. Compared with the crabapple fruits on the market, the hanging silk crabapple fruit in front of him was as small as a cherry.
Lu Zhengyang "clicked, clicked" bit a small circle of flesh, then dug a small hole with his feet, buried the core of the fruit, and then flattened the soil.
"Sweet and sour, the taste is good." Lu Zhengyang turned his head to look at Dean Lu who came here at some point, and commented very pertinently.
"Pick more if you like it." Dean Lu helped the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. There was a smile on the corner of his lips, but the lenses were reflective in the bright afternoon light, making it difficult to see clearly. Dean Lu's eyes, "Whether you can eat it next year is up to you."
"Hey?" Lu Zhengyang tilted his head to look at Dean Lu, raised his hand and patted the crabapple tree, and said, "This tree is not growing well. If you are afraid of insects biting the fruit, you should get some medicine next year."
"It's not about these problems." Dean Lu chuckled and said, "This tree is not resistant to cold, it won't survive this winter."
"Not cold-resistant?" Lu Zhengyang's impression of crabapple fruit was so-so. When he was thinking about the family orchard, he didn't think about it at all, and he didn't think about it at all. of.As for its habits, Lu Zhengyang has not studied it.
"Then why do you buy the Chuisi crabapple?" Lu Zhengyang recalled the crabapple species he had seen elsewhere in Jiangling City, "Buy the Xifu crabapple, it must be cold-resistant."
"There is a person I know who was worried about this tree before he died, so he sent people all the way to bring it here." Dean Lu spread his hands and said, "What can I do?" His voice gradually turned cold, "He Since it is sent here, we should have the psychological preparation that this tree will not accept the water and soil and die in a foreign land, Jiangling's winter is so cold, I can't build a greenhouse for this tree."
Lu Zhengyang raised his eyebrows. He always felt that Dean Lu's words were intriguing. It seemed that he was not just talking about the issue of fruit trees going through the winter, but it was not in Lu Zhengyang's character to continue asking questions.He patted the trunk and said, "Mind if I climb a tree?"
Dean Lu glanced at Lu Zhengyang: "Have you climbed less?"
Since I was young, I have been thinking about it, and I can't control it. Let him not climb trees... Let's cut down the trees first.
Caressing the rough bark with his palm, Lu Zhengyang blinked suddenly, and said: "Hey, just kidding, how old am I, how can I still climb trees like a child."
The tip of the big cat's tail shook.
Insincere words, lies.
Lu Zhengyang clapped his hands, and when he walked past the big cat, he leaned over, hugged the big cat in his arms, weighed it, and said, "The old room?"
Although Lu Zhengyang's former dormitory was occupied by other children, the orphanage has prepared a room for him to rest.
Dean Lu nodded slightly, and said, "It's already been cleaned up for you, go."
Lu Zhengyang walked past Dean Lu with the big cat in his arms.
Dean Lu didn't move.
He quietly looked at the crabapple tree with many fruits hanging in the yard.
After a while, he suddenly snorted and turned to leave.
People are always changing, and no one can stay the same for a lifetime.
This is the tree he used to like.
But now, he doesn't like it.
