Chapter 68 Burden
Lu Qi ignored her and asked Xiang Kashina: "How is Mofu doing lately?"
Hearing this, Kashina smiled and said: "Mov has changed a lot since last time. Now he is our little adult. Many times, those children would rather listen to him than to us. "
In this regard, she still admired Lu Qi a little. When Mofu came, he had been autistic for a long time. They tried for a long time but could not find a way to untie the child's knot.
Lu Qi solved the problem immediately.
Today, Mo Fu has become very cheerful.
"Yeah."
Lu Qi smiled. It seemed that this kid Mofu was working very hard to complete his mission.
"He really saved us a lot of trouble, thanks to him."
Kashina sighed with emotion, not to mention how difficult it is to take care of a group of children.
But after Mofu appeared, it was like the sheep suddenly had a sheep, and there would be no chaos.
With his leadership, the children are still very obedient.
Lux glanced at the children playing at the other end and said, "There seem to be a lot more children."
"Yes." Kashina nodded and sighed, "Recently, several children have been delivered every day, but for a while I couldn't find a family willing to adopt them, so now they are all staying in the Illuminator Church."
There were at least thirty children, all without their parents, which was indeed a heartbreaking thing to watch.
But if no one is willing to adopt, then no matter how much you feel distressed, it will be of no use.
Kashina's eyes fell on Mov among the children, and she smiled and said: "The children who are sent usually cry a lot. At this time, Mov will comfort and educate them. He can do a lot that we adults can't do." He will definitely be outstanding in the future."
"Envy him, he has been absorbed by me and will only be used by me in the future."
Lu Qi said a little sternly at this time.
Lux glanced at him: "I'm too lazy to talk about you!"
The three of them fell silent and looked at the group of playing children.
Lu Qi paid attention to Mov among them. He had a smile on his face that was similar to his age. Maybe this is what he should look like.
For some reason, Lu Qi inevitably felt a little worried when he thought of Kashina's words.
Moff is called Little Master here.
But for a seven-year-old child, is it really a good thing to grow up so early?
After staying in the Illuminator Church for a while, Lu Qi called Moff again before leaving.
"I'm leaving today. I'll see you again in a few days."
He reached out and rubbed Moff's head.
"Okay." Mofu smiled happily, and then asked, "How many days will it take?"
Lu Qi thought for a while: "Three days!"
"That's settled!"
Mofu immediately showed a serious expression, "You may not be able to lie."
"Don't worry, I said three days, it will be three days."
Lu Qi also made a serious promise.
After saying goodbye, he and Lux left the Illuminator Church.
The two of them walked on the street, and this time they carefully selected the ingredients for making ice cream. Since it was Miss Flower Crown Guard's money, Lu Qi naturally didn't feel bad.
And Lacus also said very arrogantly that as long as the taste is good, money is not an issue!
In this way, Lu Qi can spend money more confidently and boldly.
Carrying one bag after another, Lux finally remembered something: "Speaking of which, is it really okay?"
Before spending money, she seemed to have forgotten to test Lu Qi's ability.
Now that she has bought so many things, wouldn’t she be at a loss if she doesn’t cook them deliciously?
I was tempted by the delicious food for the first time, but now that I have calmed down, I feel a little unsure.
"Don't worry, I will never betray your trust."
Lu Qi just patted his chest and promised.
Finally Lux reluctantly believed it.
At this time, the children of the Church of the Illuminator, led by Moff, launched a new game.
"Then we'll play hide and seek! We can't leave the church, and we'll pick out two little ghosts by guessing!"
After deciding on the rules, the children immediately started guessing.
The two imps responsible for finding people were selected, and the other children immediately dispersed and ran in all directions of the church, preparing to choose an excellent hiding place.
And Mofu has a lot of experience in the game of hide and seek.
When he played before, he found a position where he would never be discovered.
He was holding a little brown-haired girl in his hand. Her name was Moses. She was two years younger than herself. Like herself, she was abandoned by her parents.
When he came to the church, he neither cried nor made a fuss, which made Mauv seem to see his original self.
"Quick, be careful, come up."
Moff came to the hiding place, which was a recess in the wall above a large flower pot. Only a child's size could hide in it.
After hiding with Moses, the two children stayed quiet, not even daring to raise their breaths.
At this time, they heard footsteps.
Mov held up a finger to signal Moses to be quiet.
Moses nodded his head immediately.
They thought it was a kid who came to see them, but it seemed to be an adult from the Church of the Illuminator.
"Alas, more and more children have been sent to us recently."
one of them said.
Another said: "I heard that there will be more delivered in the next few days."
"Can we take care of it? What happened this year? Why are there so many abandoned children?"
"Who knows? This is just one of the problems. The money Mr. Barrett allocated a while ago has almost been used up, but now there are so many mouths waiting for food."
"If it really doesn't work, I have to give up part of it."
"Indeed, our capabilities are also limited."
There was indescribable sadness in the two voices.
And Mofu could tell that the reason why they were frowning and sighing was precisely him and the children.
They are ready to give up some of it.
How did you give up?
He suddenly felt a little cold in his hands and feet, and a sentence flashed in his mind unconsciously.
"This is the world of adults. You are a burden and you drag them down."
Moses, who was next to him, reached out and tugged on Mofu's cloak, shrank back, and asked in a low voice: "Will we be thrown away again?"
Moff came back to his senses and quickly smiled: "No."
He knew that this place was different from the family he lived in before. The adults here were very kind and would never abandon them.
"I am really scared."
Moses lowered his head, and the bad memories were brought back again.
Moff stretched out his hand, held the little girl's trembling hand, and said firmly: "Don't be afraid, I will definitely find a way."
"Um."
Moses smiled innocently.
Look at this smile.
At this moment, Mofu, who was only seven years old, knew what a sense of responsibility was. He wanted to protect Moses and children like her.
I'm not a burden.
As long as we are not a burden, that will be fine.
Mofu kept thinking to himself, he knew what burden meant, so wouldn't it be good if he just got rid of these two words?
