Upon hearing this, Shima Rin couldn't help but blink slightly.
The nickname "Miss Baozi" sounds unfriendly, but Shima Rin is not very angry. After all, her hairstyle has been teased many times. Even Shima Rin's parents have made jokes about it. She is no longer surprised.
And Shima Rin also knew in her heart that these teasings were basically not malicious.
Although it doesn't sound very nice, it still sounds delicious. As a foodie, Shima Rin is actually quite satisfied with the nickname "Miss Baozi".
"Then...thank you, Mr. Hu Zi." After thinking for a while, Shirosaki Hana replied.
"Okay, this brief conversation needs to end. Hu Zilang can't wait to save the world again, and I have to help him." Hayatsu Takeo said with a full of middle school mentality.
"Goodbye, Mr. Hu Zi. I hope you and Hu Zilang have returned triumphantly." Bai Sakihua felt a little uncomfortable, but still spoke.
"Thank you. I will return safely with this blessing." Hayatsu Takeo said with a smile.
After saying that, Hayatsu Takeo hung up the phone. Listening to the "beep" sound coming from the phone, Shirosaki Hana couldn't help but blink, feeling a little lost.
"Xiaohua, what did you talk about with Mr. Hu Zi?" Looking at Baisakihua, Yushan Heren couldn't help but ask.
Shirasaki Hana blinked. In fact, the two of them didn't talk about much substantive content. After all, Hayatsu Takeo was in a hurry to draw comics, and Shirasaki Hana herself couldn't find any suitable topics.
"Teacher Hu Zi said that he and Hu Zilang are going to save the world, and when he returns triumphantly, he will bring me a gift." Baisaki Hana said.
"Is that so? Isn't that good?" Yushan Heren couldn't help but smile.
Shirosaki Hana nodded and handed the phone back to Shima Rin: "Thank you, Sister Rin, for giving me the opportunity to talk to Mr. Huzi."
When Shima Rin heard this, a hint of embarrassment flashed across her face. She had not originally thought of letting Shirasaki Hana go and talk to Hayatsu Takeo. It was Hayatsu Takeo himself who suggested it.
"Good morning... Mr. Hu is busy with his manuscript now, so we can't chat for too long. Next time if there is a chance, Mr. Hu will definitely be willing to chat more with you, Xiaohua." Shima Rin said.
Bai Sakihua couldn't help but blink when she heard this, but she finally shook her head and said, "I'm already very satisfied to be able to talk to Mr. Hu Zi.
There are still so many people looking forward to Mr. Hu's work, I should not take up too much of his time. "
Looking at the sensible Shirasaki Hana, Shima Rin couldn't help but blink. She didn't expect that the other party actually considered Hu Zilang's other fans. She couldn't help but feel that Shirasaki Hana was so sensible that she didn't seem like an elementary school student.
Yushan Kazuto looked at Doma Mei calmly, thinking that it would be great if Doma Mei could be half as sensible as Shirasaki Hana.
Noticing the look in Yushan Kazuto's eyes, Tsuchima Mai pursed her lips slightly. She understood the meaning of that look in Yushan Kazuto's eyes.
But if she was really that sensible, then Doma Mai would no longer be Doma Mai. It was okay to pretend occasionally, but if she kept pretending, Doma Mai felt that she might collapse.
"Brother Kazuto, when are we going to the welfare home?" Shirasaki Hana couldn't help but blink and said as she watched the replay of Hu Zilang on TV.
On TV, Hu Zilang is always saving the world and bringing smiles to others.
Shirosaki Hana doesn't think she can save the world, but if she can just bring a smile to other people's faces, she thinks she can still do it.
Chapter 2175: More Children
After looking at Shirasaki Hana, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but smile. Originally, Yushan Kazuto was thinking about waiting until this episode of Hu Zi Lang was over before taking the initiative to go out, but he didn't expect that Shirasaki Hana would propose it first.
He glanced at Shirosaki Hana, then at Doma Mai and Shima Rin. The two didn't seem to have any objections, so Yushan Kazuto smiled and said, "Then let's go out!"
……
After leaving home, Yushan Kazuto went to Odaiba first as usual.
The new semester is about to begin, and the children in the welfare home also need some new stationery and new clothes to welcome the new stage.
Of course, there was another reason to go to Odaiba, which was to take Shima Rin for a walk.
Not only did I buy gifts for the children in the orphanage, but I also took Shima Rin to visit Tokyo's famous landmarks, which really killed two birds with one stone.
After purchasing all the items, it was already 11 o'clock in the morning.
Looking at Shirasaki Hana and the others, Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but ask, "Should we go to the welfare home first, or find a place to have lunch first?"
"Let's go to the welfare home first." said Shirosaki Hana.
Doma Mai and Shima Rin also nodded. They also wanted to go to the welfare home first.
The key point is that they are not hungry now. If they set out later or stay in Odaiba for a while longer, they might get hungry.
"Then let's go to the welfare home first." Hearing this, Yushan Heren nodded and walked towards the parking lot.
……
"Senior Kazuto, who are you messaging?" Walking to the side of the vehicle, looking at Yushan Kazuto who was still holding the phone and chatting with someone unknown, Tsuchima couldn't help but pout slightly and said.
"I'll ask if Nozomi is at home. If she is, I'll pick her up and take her to the welfare home." Yushan Kazuto said.
"It turns out to be Nozomi-senpai!" Tsuchima blinked and said, "So Nozomi-senpai is at home?"
"He's at home, Yuzuru is at home too, we can just go there directly." Yushan Kazuto said with a smile.
Hearing this, Tsuchima couldn't help but pout slightly, but Shirasaki Hana was very happy: "I can see Sister Nozomi and Sister Yuzuru again!"
"There's also a grandma!" Yushan Kazuto said.
Shirosaki Hana nodded vigorously, but Doma Mai blinked, and couldn't help but recall the way Nishimiya Kei helped her peel oranges, and a look of happiness appeared on her face.
"Is grandma in good health recently?" asked Tsuchima.
"The last time I went for a checkup, I was recovering well, but I still need to pay attention to my diet," Yushan Heren said.
Hearing this, Tsuchiya nodded. As long as she needed to pay attention to her diet, it was actually very good.
Fortunately, Ye Mi took action personally, otherwise, even if the Xigong system could recover, it might have left some sequelae in such a cold environment.
"Okay, we're ready to go." After looking at the people who had already gotten in the car, Yushan Heren put away his phone and stepped on the accelerator.
……
"Shoko, Yuzuru, long time no see." When I arrived at the door of the Nishimiya family, Nishimiya Shoko and Nishimiya Yuzuru were already standing at the door waiting.
"Long time no see." Nishimiya Yuzuru replied softly.
After looking at Nishimiya Yuzuru, Hayama Kazuto couldn't help but smile.
Kazuto Hayama and Nishimiya Shoko had met at least a few weeks ago. After returning from Karuizawa, Kazuto Hayama came to give the Nishimiya family a gift. But as for Yuzuru Nishimiya, he hasn't been seen for a long time.
The last time Hayama Kazuto came to deliver souvenirs, Nishimiya Yuzuru was not at home. He asked Nishimiya Naoko where he was, but Nishimiya Naoko did not answer.
After looking Nishimiya Yuzuru up and down, Yushan Kazuto felt that he seemed a lot darker than before. He wondered where he had been during this time.
"Yuzuru, where have you been during this time? You look a lot darker." Yushan Kazuto asked with a smile.
"Let's go out and shoot." Nishimiya Yuzuru just whispered.
Hearing Nishimiya Yuzuru's evasive answer, Yushan Kazuto could only shrug his shoulders and say, "Okay, let's get in the car first. We have to try to get to the welfare home before dinner time."
If she had arrived at the welfare home at mealtime, Sachiko Yamashita might have thought she was there to get a free meal!
Although it would be nice to experience the quality of the food at the welfare home and see what the children usually eat, I didn't make a reservation in advance. If I go there directly, I guess the children won't be full.
Of course, there is a disadvantage to making an appointment in advance, which is that the welfare home may prepare a sumptuous lunch specially for the arrival of Yushan and others.
This would make it difficult for Yushan Heren to observe the food quality of the welfare home.
Neither option is suitable, and Yushan Kazuto feels that it would be better for him to get to the welfare home as soon as possible.
……
When driving to the welfare home, Shima Rin was a little scared by the appearance of Minami-Senju General Welfare Home.
Judging from the flowers on the outside, the Minami-Senju Welfare Home doesn’t look like a welfare home at all, but rather like a botanical garden.
Walking into the welfare home, the spring roses have already been bought by flower companies at high prices, and chrysanthemums are now planted on the land, and the flower buds can already be seen.
In about half a month, the chrysanthemums will be in full bloom, and the welfare home will be able to earn some income again.
The welfare home, which was originally in a worrying financial situation, is now operating well after reaching a cooperation with a flower company.
Among them, the management of Yamashita Sachiko was indispensable. Yuyama Kazuto admired Yamashita Sachiko very much.
Hayama
He Ren only gave her a channel, but he didn't expect that the other party could use this channel to develop the welfare home to this level.
If it weren't for the limited area of the welfare home and the shortage of staff, Yushan Heren even suspected that the other party might be able to establish a professional flower planting base.
When we walked to the main building of the welfare home, Miyako Hoshino was in the classroom, teaching students how to do handicrafts.
In terms of learning, Miyako Hoshino is not good at it, and she is not good at teaching others. But in terms of handicrafts, Miyako Hoshino's talent is unquestionable.
"Senior Kazuto, why do I feel like there are more children in the orphanage?"
After looking at the situation in the classroom, Tsuchima couldn't help but blink slightly and said.
"You're right." Yushan Heren couldn't help but say.
The last time I came here, there were only a dozen children in the orphanage. How come this time, there are already more than twenty children in the orphanage?
Yushan Kazuto couldn't help but look at Nishimiya Yuzuru, but Nishimiya Yuzuru had just returned home today, and she didn't know when there were so many people in the welfare home.
I looked at Nishimiya Naoko again, but she pointed to the side.
Looking in the direction of Nishimiya Naoko's finger, Matsuno Naku was approaching not far away.
Noticing the gazes of Yushan and the others, Matsuno Naku couldn't help but wave his hand and walked over with a smile.
Chapter 2176: If you are poor, you should take care of yourself; if you are rich, you should help the world
"Matsuno, why does it feel like there are a lot more children in the orphanage?" After the two sides greeted each other briefly and exchanged pleasantries, Yushan Kazuto asked.
"There's an orphanage nearby that has closed down, so the children were sent here." Upon hearing this, Matsuno Naku sighed and said.
Hearing this, Yushan Heren couldn't help but blink slightly. He knew Yamashita Sachiko's character well. If the children were sent directly to her door, Yamashita Sachiko would definitely not be able to refuse.
"So now, can the welfare home still make ends meet?" Yushan Heren blinked and asked.
"The current funds are still healthy," said Naoki Matsuno.
Yushan Heren shrugged his shoulders and said that the current funds were still healthy, which meant that the funds in the future might not be sufficient.
"Director Yamashita is contacting the authorities, hoping to obtain higher subsidies. If successful, the welfare home's cash flow will be fine." Matsuno Naku said.
"What if it doesn't succeed?" Yushan Heren shrugged and asked.
Hearing this, Matsuno Naku didn't know how to respond.
Although it is natural for the government to increase subsidies after the welfare home accepts a new child, sometimes the application for such subsidies is not very smooth.
"We can still hold on for now. When the chrysanthemums mature, we will be able to earn new income." Matsuno Naku could only say.
"Since we have admitted new children, do we need to increase the number of staff at the welfare home?" Yushan Heren asked again.
Nahisa Matsuno could only blink her eyes. If the welfare home recruited more staff, its funds would become even tighter.
The current situation is that only a few staff members in the welfare home can work a little harder.
Naku Matsuno hasn't had a rest for a long time, and Miyako Hoshino can only put her work with Hiromi Kato aside temporarily and devote most of her energy to the welfare home.
Looking at Matsuno Naku's appearance, Yushan Kazuto could only sigh. Fortunately, the renovation work of the welfare home had been completed, otherwise the welfare home's finances would have been even more stretched.
"Okay, it's not that I have any complaints. I just hope that you can consider your own abilities a little when accepting the child." Yushan Heren said with a long sigh.
Seeing the welfare home's finances gradually becoming healthy, but now becoming precarious again, Yushan Kazuto just felt it was a pity.
"You have to talk to Dean Yamashita about this." Matsuno Naku said angrily.
Hearing this, Yushan Kazuto could only roll his eyes. If he could convince Yamashita Sachiko, would he still need to talk to Matsuno Naku?
Kazuto Yuyama still admires Yamashita Sachiko's personality, but the fact that she doesn't often consider the consequences of doing things also gives Kazuto Yuyama a headache.
"Before, the Minami-Senju Children's Comprehensive Welfare Home was facing the risk of bankruptcy, but now it has begun to accept children from other bankrupt welfare homes." Yushan Kazuto said.
Naku Matsuno couldn't help but blink slightly. If this continued, the Minami-Senju Children's Welfare Home would probably be on the verge of bankruptcy again.
"Where is Dean Yamashita? He doesn't seem to be in the office." asked Yushan Kazuto.
The door of Sachiko Yamashita's office was closed. If the other person was in an orphanage, the office door would usually be ajar.
Matsuno Nahisa just spread her hands, and Yushan Kazuto understood what she meant. Yamashita Sachiko was probably going to deal with the subsidy issue.
In fact, in addition to the subsidy issue, there is another important thing that Sachiko Yamashita needs to do - that is to solve the problem of schooling for new children.
In the original welfare home, all children attended nearby public schools, which saved a lot of costs.
However, the educational level of that public school is relatively low and the students are of varying quality.
What’s more important is that because the orphanage is not far from the public school, many students would deliberately make fun of and mock them after knowing that they came from the orphanage.
