Chapter 31 Stroll Around

After a while, I heard the sound of high-heeled shoes stepping on the floor in the corridor.

This old house is still a floor.

I followed the sound and looked around. In the middle of this hall is the wooden ladder to go upstairs. There are aisles on the left and right sides, and rows of houses on both sides of the aisle.

It is a typical building structure of the former Republic of China period.

As the footsteps got closer and closer, a woman finally appeared at the end of the escalator to the second floor.

She is wearing a gray business attire, a long-sleeved shirt and gray trousers, and she is about 35 years old.

Medium-length hair, slightly permed curly hair, wearing a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, looks ordinary.

This figure is obviously not as good as the figure of the woman in the long white dress I saw just now.

Seeing us standing at the door, she immediately showed a professional smile and walked towards us quickly.

"May I ask which media you are from!"

"Oh, we do self-media. We mainly report on some accomplished experts in the medical field."

"Oh, that's right! We only received the news this morning, and we didn't expect such a thing to happen."

Secretary Wang's expression darkened, she took a look at us, and she didn't seem to think that we were bad people, so she waved her hand and said:
"Come with me, two, let's go upstairs to the office to talk!"

"Okay, sorry to trouble you!" I smiled.

So Zhang Yi and I glanced at each other and followed.

Stepping on the wooden stairs, creaking upstairs.

Zhang Yi lost no time in chatting with Secretary Wang:
"Secretary Wang, your building is a bit old!"

"That's right, this is a house from the period of the Republic of China. It must have been around 90 or [-] years ago! The two outside buildings of ours have been repaired. The first floor is covered with floor tiles, and only the second floor is still made of wood. But the main building, our dean has been No movement is allowed. So keep the same as before."

"Oh, actually, it feels pretty good. It's very historic and has a sense of time. We young people should come to such places to visit and learn more."

Zhang Yi kept turning his head and looking at me winking at me while putting on a close-up.

It means to see how well he behaves!

I gave him a big roll of my eyes, indicating that he should not be too ostentatious, so as not to show his feet and be laughed at.

Of course Secretary Wang saw the handsome guy taking the initiative to get close, so he let go of his guard and started talking.

"The four floors below our main building are divided into different age groups for children who need to be taken care of.

The fifth floor is the administrative office and the dean's office.Then there are two buildings outside, one is the cafeteria, restaurant, entertainment room and so on, and the other is mainly arranged for some guest rooms and dormitories for the staff. "

She introduced Zhang Yi as she walked, as if the two of them became acquaintances immediately.

I followed behind foolishly, listening to what they were saying, looking here and there from time to time.

Of course, when I was looking around with my spiritual eyes open, I didn't like talking to people.

So it just so happens that Zhang Yi can help me hold back Secretary Wang, so that I can also handle my own affairs.

The three of us just walked and chatted like this, and took a rough stroll around the main building of the orphanage.

I suddenly felt that I was very smart, my brain turned fast, and I pretended to be a reporter from We Media. It seems that these places are quite friendly to reporters.

In addition, Zhang Yi still has the ability to coax girls.

Going up to the second floor, there is a row of corridors facing the outside on each floor. Standing on the corridors, you can see the scenery in the yard.

As the floors get higher and higher, more and more parts of the Jue tree are in our sight.

Throughout the corridors and corridors, one can smell the faint smell of yellow jujube in the air.

In fact, there is a big Jue tree outside my house, but it is not as big as this one, and its aroma seems to be suppressed a lot in the scorched environment.

It is far less than in this fresh mountain, where you can quietly feel the joy brought by this aroma.

We walked around and slowly went up to the fifth floor. Zhang Yi and Secretary Wang seemed to be in a heated relationship, talking and laughing.

Secretary Wang led us to the left side of the corridor.

I stood in the middle of the corridor and looked at the place where I was standing on the jujube tree in the yard just now. It seemed that the white figure appeared on the right side of the corridor.

I glanced to the right, and it was not good to go there alone to inquire.

While thinking about it, Secretary Wang called out: "Come in, this is my office!"

I had no choice but to answer, and then walked to an office on the left side of the corridor.

The doors of these offices are still old-fashioned green wooden doors, and the doors are also nailed with wooden block signs.

In view of Zhang Yi's current relationship with Secretary Wang, the two of us didn't seem to have any good personalities, so we walked into the secretary's office openly.

This office is about ten square meters, but it is indeed very classic, and all the furnishings are quite retro and warm.

Decorations from the Republic of China can be seen everywhere, such as a swinging wall clock on the wall, an old-fashioned desk calendar on the table, and woolen armrest gloves on the brown leather sofa.

There is a desk in the middle of the room, also dark brown, with a glass mirror pressed on the desk, and various photos are placed under it.

Beside the table was a small chest of drawers with some framed wooden pictures and an old radio.

"Secretary Wang, you are building a retro exhibition hall here!" I couldn't help saying a sentence of praise.

Because this room is really very tonal.

"Ha, affected by the environment here, our rooms here are almost all in this style, besides, every room here is decorated by our dean himself. We just need to use it!

Of course, these items, each one is really exquisite and perfect, and none of our staff can fault it. "

"Oh? It seems that the dean is really a particular person!" I asked with interest.

"That's not true. Our dean has been working here for 60 years, so he should be quite emotional!"

"60 years?" Zhang Yi and I couldn't help exclaiming!

"Yes, it should be here since birth..."

Secretary Wang glanced at us, as if she realized that the topic was a bit far away, then she stood up again, walked quickly to the side of the chest of drawers and took out two cups.

"Are you drinking tea or coffee!" She smiled kindly at us.

"It's okay, it's okay!" I immediately said haha.

Then I looked around again and found a row of photo walls on the right-hand wall on the wall.

I walked around to take a look or two with interest, and after just scanning casually, I found Zhou Shiqi's photo.

In the photo, he is wearing a white shirt and standing beside an elderly woman, who has white hair and looks noble and elegant...

"Isn't this Dean Zhou?" Seeing that I was staring at a photo, Zhang Yi also looked over.

"That's right..." The people on the photo wall are all orphans who left us, and of course they can be regarded as some famous people.

Secretary Wang smiled, and the meaning was obvious. This is a propaganda wall.

It shows that the children in the orphanage have been well taken care of, and they have even cultivated such outstanding talents for the society.

As soon as I understood, I went back to the sofa and sat down and said:
"Can Secretary Wang tell us about Dean Zhou? He grew up here, right?"
