Chapter Twelve, Go to Sandao City
The car set out to the city, and Kun County is 2 and a half hours away from Sandao City. Sandao City is adjacent to Longcheng, so its economic development is not slow. In recent years, it has gradually become a relatively large city. Therefore, many surrounding counties and districts have gradually been under the jurisdiction of Sandao City in recent years, and Kun County is one of them.
Along the way, Zhang Yaling's parents kept asking about what happened in college in the past few months. Zhang Yaling also told his parents most of the matter briefly. In order not to make his parents worry, Zhang Yaling also reported to his parents about the good aspects. He was not afraid of his parents criticizing him, but did not want his parents to know that he was not doing well outside or was afraid that his parents would worry.
As for a series of things such as being teased by classmates and being beaten by Wang He, Zhang Yaling naturally kept silent. Zhang Yaling also didn't tell her parents about the 1,400 yuan. Since the family's conditions have improved a little now, there is no need to worry about the money for school, so Zhang Yaling wants to keep the 1,400 yuan secretly for himself. Zhang Yaling has not had much pocket money since he was a child. Not only does the family conditions not allow, Zhang Yaling has nothing to buy. Zhang Yaling is all about studying, and his clothes are all about wearing whatever his parents buy and playing things. Even Zhang Yaling's physical conditions do not allow him to do too many activities.
But now it’s different. Zhang Yaling will soon have the same body as a normal person. Although it’s 20 years late, it’s not too late. So this 1,400 yuan is also useful to Zhang Yaling. For example, buying some clothes for himself or making himself eat better. Zhang Yaling still feels beautiful that he might have a girlfriend. It’s said that this girlfriend is quite expensive, and he can’t have any reserves. The more Zhang Yaling thinks, the more he thinks, the farther he thinks, the more beautiful he thinks, the more he thinks, the more beautiful he thinks. No wonder, even a little hope is enough to make this person ecstatic and begin to imagine his days of being out of the darkness.
According to the prior agreement, the car did not go directly to the Sandao People's Hospital, but to the Sandao Evening Newspaper, where the reporter arranged for some scholarship fund people to meet Zhang Yaling. These are all procedures that must be followed, and people can't pay without even seeing each other without greetings. Zhang Yaling's family also understands these.
After a while, the car arrived at the door of the newspaper, and there were already several people waiting there at the door. Zhang Yaling's family quickly got out of the car, and Zhang's father first met. Among the people standing at the door, one of the Zhang Yaling's family knew, and the female reporter who came to interview last time. This matter was thanks to the female reporter who could complete it so successfully.
Zhang Yaling's father suddenly went up and grabbed the female reporter's hand and shook it, and kept saying words of thanks.
"Oh, thank you so much this time. You are our benefactor. You are willing to be a cow or a horse in the future." Zhang Yaling's father is more realistic and can't think of any fancy words, so he can only express his feelings in the simplest words.
"Oh, Mr. Zhang, you are so polite. This is what we should do. This is the editor and owner of our station, and this is the webmaster of our station's rescue station."
The female reporter was very smart and quickly introduced the people around her. These were her leaders, and she couldn't let them all be aside. Zhang Yaling's father was also very obedient. When he heard the female reporter introduce these big names, he quickly went up to shake hands and thanked him. The leaders also nodded symbolically and signaled a little.
"Mr. Zhang, and Mrs. Zhang, let's go in and talk. There are still some people waiting inside." The female reporter quickly led Zhang Yaling's family to the building. First, the weather was cold and we couldn't stay outside forever. There were representatives of funding groups waiting to see Zhang Yaling on the second floor, so we didn't dare to delay too long outside.
The group entered the building and found a dozen waiting inside. When they saw them coming in, they also greeted them.
"President Li, President Chen is the college student Zhang Yaling and his family." The female reporter first introduced Zhang Yaling and his family to the two presidents here.
"Mr. Zhang is the president of the foundation that sponsors you, you have to thank them."
Zhang Yaling's father took a step forward and knelt down at the two presidents, which shocked the surroundings. The two presidents quickly helped him up.
"Mr. Zhang, this is what we should do. Don't do this, get up quickly."
"Yes, yes, what do you mean? This is not an outsider."
Zhang Yaling's father stood up with tears in his eyes. This was not something Zhang Yaling's father pretended to be. As the saying goes, when he sees a benefactor, he will cry. He is grateful to these benefactors who are equivalent to giving Zhang Yaling a second life.
"Let's sit inside and have a chat." The two presidents led Zhang Yaling's family to the pre-prepared living room.
This living room is a place to receive important guests on weekdays, and today the newspaper also packed it up. All parties took their seats and everyone introduced it one by one. Mr. Li and Mr. Chen are the presidents of the "Love Learning Fund" that sponsored Zhang Yaling's family. They also learned about Zhang Yaling's affairs through the newspaper. After consideration, they decided to fund Zhang Yaling's 30,000 yuan in tuition and living expenses in school.
In addition to the two presidents and officers, and the newspaper leaders who had previously welcomed Zhang Yaling's family, there were reporters from several other newspapers and TV stations sitting in the living room, with a total of more than 10 people.
After briefly introducing the people present, the following were some scene processes. First, the newspaper leaders made a speech, introducing some measures and achievements that the newspaper had taken over the years in relief and the results they received. The newspaper leaders' speech was also a matter of Lao Wang's self-selling and boasting, because the reporters from other newspapers came to visit and report, so some things had to be said. After the newspaper leaders finished speaking, the two presidents made a speech, and the speech was similar, and they also introduced the development and purpose of their foundation. There are so many reporters here, so this kind of advertising is in vain.
Zhang Yaling's family had never seen such a large formation before, so they sat there listening in a row, and didn't quite understand what they meant.
When the leaders brag about themselves, they focused on Zhang Yaling's family, to be precise, on Zhang Yaling. Even though Zhang Yaling dressed up specifically today, she still looked very rustic and not quite flattering. Especially in such occasions, Zhang Yaling seemed nervous, so her expression was not very natural.
"Are you Zhang Yaling? Hello, we have heard of your deeds a long time ago." President Li first stretched out his hand to Zhang Yaling, and Zhang Yaling quickly held it.
"Yes... I... I am Zhang Yaling...that...that's especially thankful... I can't finish my studies without you...I can't finish my studies." Zhang Yaling was nervous and stuttered a little nervous, and said a little incoherently.
"Hahaha, don't be nervous if you're okay. It's the same as at home. How are you doing in school?" the president asked very kindly.
"Very...is good...something is good...something is good, and the teacher is very caring." Zhang Yaling could only briefly talk about it. The reporters who did the following kept taking photos and recording, and the flash had to flash for a while, which made Zhang Yaling feel like she was returning to the New Year's Day party stage.
"That's good. You should study hard. It's not easy for your parents. If you have people like us to help you, don't worry," President Chen said with a smile beside him.
Zhang Yaling did not stutter in this sentence "I will study hard and live up to everyone's expectations."
Several people chatted with Zhang Yaling for a few more words, and encouraged them to bless you and encourage them. Zhang Yaling's family also expressed their gratitude.
Later, the two presidents and newspaper leaders handed the check board to Zhang Yaling's family and held a fund handover ceremony. Even if the funding was completed, the 30,000 yuan funded from the bank was withdrawn.
After talking for a while, several presidents and officials got up and prepared to leave, and the others got up to see the guests. After the president left, the newspaper leaders and other reporters also left one after another, leaving only the previous female reporter and Zhang Yaling's family.
Today's funding is one aspect, and the main purpose is Zhang Ya's leg. This is what their family cares about, especially Zhang Ya's, who seems a little impatient.
"You wait a while, I'll contact the hospital and wait for the company to send a car to pick it up for us." As he said that, he took the phone out.
"Son, you have to work hard. Such good people will help you. We will repay them when we come back. Did you hear that?" Dad Zhang taught Zhang Yaling very seriously.
"Well, I understand." Zhang Yaling knew those who are good to him, such as Zhang Yi and Ran Yu. If he had the chance, he would definitely repay these people well.
"The hospital has been contacted, let's go there immediately." The female reporter walked back quickly and told Zhang Yaling and his family.
"Hey, so nice, thank you." Zhang Yaling's father responded quickly. "Here's here, come here."
