Chapter 370: First Encounter with the Twelve Blood Generals (3)
Ah Si’s words somewhat moved Ah Yi, who weighed the pros and cons, then begrudgingly nodded in agreement.
"Miss, please see if you can help Mother Huang even if it’s just to prolong her life a bit!" Ah Yi looked earnestly at An Yiqing and spoke sincerely.
An Yiqing nodded and stepped towards the orphanage. The boys hurriedly followed behind her.
Along the way, An Yiqing learned about many things from these boys that weren’t recorded in any documents.
Huang Fen had adopted over thirty children. The oldest among them was Ah Yi, twenty-two years old, and the youngest was just three. Because there were so many children, Huang Fen had no choice but to name some nameless children by assigning them numbers according to their age, from Ah Yi, Ah Er, up to eighteen, nineteen. In this orphanage, there were a total of nineteen children who had become orphans before they had names.
Over the years, Huang Fen had dedicated herself to these children with all her heart. Her income was not much, just a modest salary. In her spare time, she would even take on part-time jobs. Even so, due to limited capabilities, Ah Yi and Ah Er, who had just finished high school at the time, had no choice but to drop out and enter society, something that Huang Fen greatly regretted.
Since Ah Yi and Ah Er started working, life improved slightly for everyone. But they still couldn’t escape the fate of their younger siblings having to drop out after finishing high school. There was no choice; college tuition was too expensive, and the cost of living for over thirty children was already a huge expense, which the orphanage simply couldn’t afford.
However, fortunately, though they were poor in money, Huang Fen was rich in spirit, and all the children she raised had proper values and a strong will. If it wasn’t for the fact that Huang Fen’s stomach cancer had reached a late stage and she couldn’t afford the expensive medical bills, Ah Si and the others would not have resorted to robbery.
