Chapter 336 Proposal(2)_1
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuan laughed and said, "That’s a good idea indeed. I heard that Little Sister Wei’er once established a nursing home in Qingyun Town. Why don’t you help me plan for one too? I’m considering setting up one in Lin’an Prefecture to help those poor homeless people!"
Listening to him say this, Cai Wei was delighted and immediately agreed, saying, "It’s commendable that Big Brother Huo has such a compassionate heart. I thank you on behalf of those homeless elderly, young, sick and disabled."
The beggars around them who overheard their conversation were overjoyed. They were all homeless individuals who did not know when their next meal would come. They spent their days enduring hunger and cold, being despised and ridiculed, suffering unbearable misery. If a nursing home could provide them with shelter, they could live without worrying about food and clothing, no longer leading a life of being in exile and wandering. They could enjoy their old age in the nursing home and even have a coffin when they pass away.
Such a blessing was beyond their imaginations. However, they heard from a beggar who came from the north that there was a girl who had set up a nursing home in a small town where he came from. The people in the nursing home had enough food every day, warm clothes to wear, even provided with charcoal in winter, and they got to eat meat every few days...
They were all extremely eager for this, hoping that a kind person would also establish a nursing home in their area to give them shelter and ensure they could spend their remaining days peacefully.
It seemed the Heavens heard their prayers and truly sent a benevolent person into their midst. Moreover, they heard with their own ears that this benevolent person was planning to set up a nursing home for them. For a time, the beggars were so excited that they shouted in joy and knelt down in gratitude.
"Benefactor, please receive our bow!"
"Benefactor, if you can establish a nursing home for us beggars in Lin’an Prefecture, we will certainly set up a plaque in your name, burn incense for you daily, praying for you to live a long and prosperous life..."
Huo Yuan was startled by their gratitude, but quickly regained his composure and said aloud, "The nursing home project is still under planning. Once there is any news, I will inform you all immediately. Also please inform the beggars you know. Those who meet the conditions for entering the nursing home can live there unconditionally once it is established."
