Chapter 273 The choice between life and death
In Anshi, Star Orphanage, the 28-year-old young female director Lu Xuehui, who just took office not long ago, fell into deep thought while watching the news pushed on the computer.

When Lu Xuehui was young, she was abandoned in the Star Orphanage in Anshi, where she grew up from 0-8 years old.

Later, she was adopted by her parents and followed them to Haishi.

Although the family background of the adoptive parents is average, they love her very much, and they try their best to provide her with the best life at that stage within their ability, and also support her to go to graduate school.

After graduating from a master's degree, she could find a good job with a high salary, but after seeing that the Star Orphanage in An City was recruiting a director, she still chose to come here to be the director.

Lu Xuehui didn't know the former director of the Star Orphanage, but it didn't prevent him from being exposed as having a bad temper, abusing children, buying and selling items donated by others in the orphanage, and finally being fired, which is why he was recruited a while ago.

Lu Xuehui is grateful for the Xingxing Orphanage that raised her until she was 8 years old. The grandmother who was the director was very gentle and cared for the growth of their children and helped them find suitable adoptive families.

Unfortunately, when she was 10 years old, the dean's grandma passed away. Over the years, the Star Orphanage has had several deans, but none of them were very good, and they were not very good to the children in the yard.

Lu Xuehui's adoptive parents supported her coming here to be the dean, and she still remembered the tenderness and care of the dean's grandmother. She said: The children in the orphanage are also children, and they are also little angels who came to the world. Try to live the life that normal kids should live.

Lu Xuehui came here to inherit the will of the dean's grandma.

Although Lu Xuehui has no plans to get married and have children for the time being, she loves children.

It's just that after coming to the Xingxing Orphanage, what I saw was devastated.

Things donated by well-meaning people are sold off, the children don’t have enough to eat and wear, their education can’t keep up, and the place they live in is very old and has never been renovated. Willing to adopt.

And the worst of these problems are children who are sick.

In particular, eight children were abandoned here because of congenital heart disease. The youngest was only a few months old, and the oldest was 11 years old. They had no money to treat them, and even the cheapest medicine was Sometimes you can eat it, sometimes you can't.

Being able to survive until now depends on their luck and fate.

Lu Xuehui has found out that in these years, there are far more than 8 children with congenital heart disease, and those who can't survive, and those who have a bad life are all gone.

They were buried on the back hill behind the orphanage, forming small hills.

No one knew how Lu Xuehui felt when she was standing on the back mountain, looking at those simple little buns that didn't even have names.

The heart disease of 8 children must be treated.

But the problem we are currently facing is that the hospital has no money, not to mention paying for the treatment of 8 children at the same time, even 1 child cannot be treated.

In the past two months, Lu Xuehui has been using various methods to call on well-wishers to donate, but in the end it is still a drop in the bucket. The funds raised so far are only enough for one or two children's early treatment, and it may not be able to continue in the later period.

But if you can only save one or two children, do you have to give up the other 6 or 7 children? 7 children, that is, 6, 7 fresh lives.

Lu Xuehui, who was already at a loss, saw a 4-year-old child having a heart attack in the middle of the night last night. When it was finally determined that she might die if she didn't get proper treatment, Lu Xuehui became more anxious and didn't fall asleep the whole night.

She was trying hard to find a solution, her eyes were red and her phone was ringing, but she didn't get much.

Until now, she just went to wash her face and came back to sit in front of the computer again, when she suddenly saw a push message that popped up.

"Official medicine, call for volunteers, new medicine, any heart disease, free of charge..." Lu Xuehui murmured.

Lu Xuehui was hesitating whether to sign up the eight children as volunteers.

This is the only chance, but the risk is also great. In case of any accident, then...

Just when Lu Xuehui was hesitating, she suddenly heard movement from the door.

I saw a few children poking their heads and looking in cautiously. They walked in slowly after realizing that Lu Xuehui had already seen them.

The 7 children are all children suffering from heart disease in the hospital. The youngest is only a few months old and is held in the arms of the eldest, 11-year-old Nan Nan.

"What are you doing here?" Lu Xuehui asked, reaching out to take the baby who was several months old in Nan Nan's arms.

The little baby is very good, anyone can hug it, after Lu Xuehui hugged her, he even spat bubbles at her and grinned.

Several children looked at each other, looked at each other several times, and finally, under Lu Xuehui's curiosity, Nan Nan stepped forward and spoke.

"Sister Dean, we have all heard that there is not much money in the hospital, and there is no way to treat us all at the same time," Nan Nan continued, and several children held hands together.

"Sister Dean, let Xiao BuDian and Niu Niu be treated, we don't need to take medicine, and we won't be cured."

"Yes, for Xiaobudian and Niuniu."

"Niu Niu is in pain, she is very afraid of pain, so treat Niu Niu."

"I'm not afraid of pain, I can bear it, if it hurts, I will pass it."

"..."

Several children talked about the reasons why they could die.

Little one, at this time Lu Xuehui was holding the little baby in her arms, who had just been abandoned at the gate of the orphanage a while ago.

And Niuniu is the little girl who had a heart attack last night.

Lu Xuehui didn't know where these children heard these words, and after a lot of discussion, she made up her mind to come to her to say these things, but hearing these words, Lu Xuehui's heart ached .

Lu Xuehui looked at these immature faces, and couldn't help asking: "Then do you know what will happen if you don't treat the disease?"

There was a moment of silence in the office, and the 6-year-old Niu Niu looked up at her, and said in a tender voice, "I know, I heard that I will die, and I will never be able to open my eyes, eat, or wake up. Buried in the back mountain, turned into a small earthen bag, I know it, I know it all."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter even if it becomes a small dirt bag, I heard that it won't hurt."

"That's right, sister dean, can you bury me next to Lingling? I want to be with Lingling, so that we can play together forever." Lingling was a good friend of Niu Niu who also died of a heart attack half a year ago.

"I want to be buried next to Lulu. Lulu is the least courageous. It's dark at night in the back mountain. I want to protect her." 8-year-old Feifei clenched her fist slightly and said.

"Sister dean, can I go with Feifei?" 9-year-old Xiaoyun asked, holding the 6-year-old Feifei beside her.

But Lu Xuehui's tears could no longer hold back and fell down.

You silly kids, you know what you're talking about.

They are giving up their lives themselves, how old are you, how can you say that you can give up your lives so easily.

They are all children obviously, and the oldest Nan Nan is only 11 years old, why does God make them bear this.

In this way, they gave the hope of life to other children who needed it more, left the possibility of death to themselves, and arranged a burial place for themselves.

Looking at their immature faces, pure and clean eyes, and that sentence, how could Lu Xuehui's heart not be touched.

It was also at this time that Lu Xuehui, who was hesitant at first, finally made up her mind.

She wiped away her tears, faced the children, and said firmly: "I won't die, you all won't die, the dean's sister has already figured out a way, I will definitely, I will do my best to save you, save everyone."

"So, don't give up! Don't give up lightly!"

 I'm about to cry myself...
