Chapter 375 The Orphanage in F County
Ling Tianyi carried Taotao, who was talking on the phone to get off the car. “Son, it’s time to hang up. What’s more, it’s impolite for you to keep talking on the phone when you see your grandparents.”
Taotao was sensible. He said good-bye to Xiaoxiao, and then he hung up.
“Where is my rolling pin?” Taotao found that the weapon in his hands disappeared.
“It’s in the car. Why do you want such a poor rolling pin? There are a lot of interesting toys in your grandparents’ house.” Ling Tianyi didn’t know that the rolling pin was used to fight against him at all.
“No, that’s my weapon. My weapon should be with me.” Taotao seemed to have a firm attitude.
“OK. I’ll get it for you!” Ling Tianyi also spoiled the children. He could compromise as long as it was not a matter of principle.
Ling Tianyi took the rolling pin from the car and gave it to Taotao. Taotao was very satisfied. It seemed that if he held the rolling pin in his hands, he could feel the security.
Inside the room, Ling Desheng and He Meishu heard the noise outside. Two people came out together. They just saw that Ling Tianyi hold Taotao. And there was a rolling pin in Taotao’s hands.
“My baby. Taotao, come here. Let grandmother embrace you!” He Meishu rushed over first. She pulled Taotao out of Ling Tianyi’s arms. Then she held up her grandson, who was not thin, with her eyes full of love.
Taotao did not resist. Anyway, they ate the seafood together last time, he felt that his grandparents were good. They had been around him at that time. Although he had not established a good relationship with them, generally speaking, the familiarity and affinity with them were increased.
“Taotao, greet your grandfather and grandmother quickly!” Ling Tianyi reminded Taotao.
“Hello, grandfather and grandmother!” Taotao was polite.
“Hello, you are so obedient!” He Meishu said.
“Hello, Taotao!” Ling Desheng answered.
The two elders were both excited. They held Taotao into the room directly. The two people were both eager to talk with Taotao. Ling Tianyi was left behind.
“Is the son out of favor when they have a grandson?” Ling Tianyi spread out his hands and joked with the butler who was standing aside
The butler knew that Ling Tianyi was joking. It was rare for him to see Ling Tianyi making jokes. Maybe because of the junior Little Sir, the mood of Little Sir was good. After he married the Little Madam, the mood of Little Sir would become even better.
“Taotao, don’t you like big toy planes. I bought you two big toy planes!” Ling Desheng started to take credit for his achievements immediately. “Don’t play with this rolling pin anymore.”
“Grandfather, this rolling pin is not a toy to play with,” Taotao said.
“You want to use the rolling pin to make the wheaten food?” He Meishu asked with a smile. Her eyes were full of love.
“No, I’m too young. I can’t cook yet,” Taotao said, and he still held the rolling pin.
“Oh? It isn’t a toy or a cooking tool. Then what is it used for? How about telling grandmother about it?” He Meishu asked with a childish tone.
“This is a secret! I can’t tell you!” Taotao looked at Ling Tianyi. He could not let daddy know about it, or it would be bad.
He Meishu didn’t know how to answer it, while Ling Desheng was smart and cunning. He saw Taotao’s thoughts at a glance.
“Tianyi, you go to the garden and help me to see what’s wrong with my lotus. They just blossomed strangely.” Ling Desheng wanted to find an excuse to drive Ling Tianyi away so that Taotao could speak the secret out.
“OK! I’ll go! I will go for a walk for a while.” Ling Tianyi smiled bitterly. “I really have to stand aside when you two have a grandson.”
As Ling Tianyi left, Ling Desheng smiled mysteriously. “Taotao, your daddy has gone. Grandfather and grandmother are both good people. Can you tell us your secret about the rolling pin?”
“This is used to fight against daddy!” Taotao said. In fact, he liked his grandfather, who unexpectedly saw through his thought. His grandfather was very smart.
“Why do you want to fight against your daddy? Does daddy treat you bad?” He Meishu asked.
“Most of the time, daddy is good to me, but daddy’s temper seems a little moody. Do no harm, but stay alert for evil. I’m too young to fight against my daddy, so I take this to protect myself.” Taotao waved the rolling pin again.
In Taotao’s mind, Ling Tianyi behaved so rudely when he wet Ling Tianyi’s trousers at his younger age last time. Although Ling Tianyi didn’t beat him up, Ling Tianyi still left a bad impression on him. And because of the matter that he played with the mobile phone, Ling Tianyi was strict with him again. Although he knew that his dad was kind, he still thought that he should protect himself from his daddy.
Ling Desheng thought that Taotao was so funny. A four years old child just mentioned, ‘Do no harm, but stay alert for evil.’
“My cute grandson, I bought you a machine carbine. That weapon is better!” He Meishu said with a smile.
“No. If it is a toy machine carbine, my daddy won’t be scared; if it is a real one, I’ll kill my daddy. I don’t want my daddy to die. He loves me most of the time,” Taotao said.
What Taotao said made Ling Desheng and He Meishu very satisfied. Although Taotao had been living with his mommy for so many years, Xia Xiaoluo did not secretly stir up the relationship between Taotao and his father.
“Why the weapon must be the rolling pin?” Ling Desheng asked.
“My godmother said that!” Taotao said, and then he told them about what Dou Ya said again.
“Good! Well done! If your daddy bullies your mommy, you must protect your mommy!” Ling Desheng said. Since they decided to accept Xia Xiaoluo, so in order to please their grandson, they must support their grandson to protect his mommy.
“Grandfather, where is the toy plane you bought for me?” Taotao asked suddenly. It was deniable that he really liked the toy planes.
“OK! I’ll take you to see it!” Ling Desheng held Taotao in his arms. “Let’s go to take the big toy planes.”
“Wait for me!” He Meishu followed them hurriedly.
“Wow. This is the bomber. This is the helicopter.” Taotao touched the planes. “This is a remote-controlled one!”
“Do you like them?” Ling Desheng asked, his eyes were full of love.
“I like them. As long as they are planes, I like them all. But, I like the fighter plane most!” Taotao said happily.
Ling Desheng and He Meishu looked at each other. He Meishu said hurriedly. “I’ll buy you a toy fighter plane.”
“Grandmother, which kind of fighter plane do you like?” Taotao asked.
He Meishu didn’t know how to answer. “Fighter planes are used for fighting. I like them!”
Taotao began to laugh, “Grandma, there are many types of fighter planes, such as F-22, F-35, T-50, J-20, J-31. They’re all very wonderful!”
“You little fellow, you know a lot about it!” Ling Desheng thumbed up to Taotao.
“Of course!” Taotao was very proud. He picked up the toy helicopter and the remote controller board. “Grandpa, I want to play outside, OK ?”
“Of course you can!” Ling Desheng couldn’t refuse any request of Taotao. “Let’s go to the garden outside. The garden of our villa is very big!”
“Taotao, don’t you like the jigsaw puzzle, and the toy sub-machine guns which grandma bought for you?” He Meishu shouted. Taotao’s favorite gift was chosen by Ling Desheng, so she was a little jealous.
“Grandmother, I want to play with this remote helicopter!” Taotao said. He did not understand his grandma’s thoughts.
Ling Desheng took Taotao to play. He Meishu called the department store at once. “Manager Zhang, send all kinds of the models and the remote-controlled toy fighter planes to my house at once.”
Taotao played happily with his grandparents because they loved him very much.
At the same time, Ouyang Feng and his family arrived in F County. F County, in fact, was under the jurisdiction of A City. It was not too remote, but the level of economic development was slightly worse than A City.
There was only one orphanage in F County, so it was very easy to find. The location was in the suburb of F County; after all, the non-profit institutions like orphanages could not occupy the territory in the main urban area.
“Sir Ouyang, it’s here. This is the place Lin Fei and I lived in when we were young.” Xiao Lan felt a little sad in her heart when she saw the orphanage.
On the way, Xiao Lan told them many things happened during Lin Fei and her childhood as well.
There was no doubt that Ouyang Feng was the VIP guest of the orphanage. The president of the orphanage has already been ready to welcome him.
The president was a woman in her fifties who looked kind. She has been introducing the development all the time, the present situation, the difficulties of the orphanage, and so on, to Ouyang Feng.
Xiao Lan knew the president of the orphanage. In fact, the president was also an orphan here. She was just a few years older than Xiao Lan. After she grew up, she went to college. And then she went back to work in the orphanage, and now she became the president.
“Sister Guo, do you still remember me?” Xiao Lan asked the president when Ouyang Feng was drinking tea.
“You are…” President Guo looked at Xiao Lan for a while. “It was a long time, I…”
Xiao Lan smiled. “I’m Xiao Lan! Do you forget me? You took good care of us before!”
“Oh, right! Xiao Lan, I remember now.” President Guo patted her own head and embraced Xiao Lan hurriedly.
“Xiao Lan, are you OK these years?” President Guo asked her sincerely.
“Very well. Although there are ups and downs, generally speaking, it is good. Now my son is married. I will have my grandchild after a few days,” Xiao Lan said with a smile. She did not want to mention those unhappy things. At least, nowadays, she was living a happy life.
“That’s good! I remember that you and Lin Fei were best friends at that time. But you were just often bullied by some elder children. By the way, what about Lin Fei? I haven’t seen you since you went to college and worked in A City together,” President Guo asked with a smile.
“Lin Fei?” Ouyang Feng stood up at once. He knew the purpose of this trip was to inquire about the affairs of Lin Fei, who was actually his daughter Ouyang Mingfei.
“Sir Ouyang, you…” President Guo asked.
“It’s nothing. You can talk freely. I want to listen to your chatting. Talk about something about Ming Fei!” Ouyang Feng sat down again.
“Lin Fei died of dystocia.” Xiao Lan shook her head with regrets. And then she held Xia Xiaoluo. “But Lin Fei’s daughter has grown up. Doesn’t she look like Lin Fei?”
“Yes! She looks like Lin Fei!” President Guo held Xia Xiaoluo’s hands.
