Go back to your idol's childhood and accompany you to read all the unknown

As the children listened to the older brother's gentle narration, the inferiority and loneliness that had just swept over them disappeared in an instant, and they began to raise their hands again, chattering about the little joys in their lives.

"Brother! The aunt in the kitchen made me a delicious fried egg that day. Is that also my parents' love for me?"

"Brother! I made a good friend, the girl with the bow, and she gave me candy. Is this my parents loving me?"

"Also, I saw a very beautiful cloud the other day. It looked like a puppy. Was it my parents talking to me?"

Gu Min listened patiently, smiled gently, and replied to each child tirelessly. One child raised his hand and asked, "Do my brother's parents love him too?"

Gu Min was stunned for a moment, and his mind flashed through the traces of the house, the wooden horse, the small bed, and the gently smiling portrait placed on the cabinet. He smiled and replied, "Love, love very much..."

Mu Qingnian stood aside, and the worry that had just emerged was suppressed peacefully. At this time, the sun was at its brightest, shining through the window, falling on the smiling children, and also on his gentle profile, casting a shadow behind him...

He had struggled desperately in that shadow, but in front of these children who were ignorant of the world, he hid his bloody wounds and wove a dreamlike beauty for them, allowing them to experience the kindness of the world...

Volunteering in a welfare home is simple in theory, but it is still a bit tiring in practice. I get up in the morning to prepare breakfast for the children, then clean up their dormitories, give them lessons, take them to do exercises, prepare lunch, coax them to take a nap in the afternoon, and do some physical training...

Mu Qingnian felt as if she had returned to the years when she was a teacher. Every day when she opened her eyes, she was surrounded by children, and the shouts of "Brother Gu" and "Sister Mu" were endless. However, despite this, the two did not complain at all. Even when the dean, Aunt Zhou, discussed with them to do less work or take a holiday, the two directly refused...

Gu Min and Mu Qingnian were both exhausted when they returned home every day. There were two days when Mu Qingnian was also very tired, so Gu Min had to carry her back. When they got home, she was already sleeping soundly on his back...

This meaningful summer vacation, with the two of them busy, gradually came to an end...

In a blink of an eye, today is the last day for the two in the welfare home. When they arrived at the welfare home early as usual, they unexpectedly found that the children had already gotten up early today, dressed neatly, and stood in a row. Behind them were all the staff of the welfare home. Behind them, there was a small stage decorated with various colorful flowers and connected to a huge banner that read "Farewell Ceremony for Brother Gu and Sister Mu!"

The words on the banner looked crooked, of different sizes, and even had pinyin substituted, but Mu Qingnian and Gu Min could tell at a glance that they were written and decorated by the children themselves, and they felt an indescribable warmth in their hearts...

Before the two could react, they were surrounded by the director Aunt Zhou and a group of children and sat in the first row in front of the stage. Then, a sweet and lovely little girl and a little boy with a lively expression stood on the stage together.

Gu Min recognized that the boy was the crybaby who asked him questions about his parents on the first day and burst into tears. Ever since he coaxed him into tears on the first day, the child has been clinging to him, always calling him "brother all the time" and crying when things happened. However, under his guidance, he has become much stronger. Today, the little boy was dressed neatly, smiling with a row of white teeth, and reciting a script aloud.

"Today is the last day that Brother Gu and Sister Mu are here. We have specially prepared a few small performances. First of all, the first performance is the song "Thank You" performed by Mu Xiaoxue."

Gu Min and Mu Qingnian laughed and clapped their hands. The innocent singing voices on the stage slowly sounded with a brisk accompaniment. Because this song was once sung by Gu Min with all the children, the melody soon led to a chorus. Even Mu Qingnian whispered to Gu Min quietly. Because of him, the climax of this farewell ceremony came a little too early...

When the song ended, there was warm applause from the audience. The little girl named Mu Xiaoxue bowed deeply to everyone and ran off the stage.

Then, another child walked onto the stage. He held a painting in his hand, which showed Gu Min and Mu Qingnian playing with their children. The child gave the painting to them and said, "We all drew this together. I give it to Brother Gu and Sister Mu. Thank you for your company during this period." Mu Qingnian took it with both hands, hugged the child gently, and said thank you, but his eyes had already begun to turn red...

Then, the children all showed their specialties, whether singing, dancing, or reciting. No matter how big or small the performance was, it was presented on this small stage. This was a very simple performance. However, no matter how many performances Gu Min and Mu Qingnian had seen in the next few decades that were much more beautiful and grand than this one, the children's childish but sincere smiles at them in the sunshine that day were still deeply engraved in their memories and would never be erased...

Happy times always pass quickly. No matter how reluctant everyone was, this small farewell ceremony eventually came to an end...

Director Zhou took the microphone and spoke on stage: "Xiao Min, Qingnian, I really appreciate the efforts of both of you young people during this period. I have watched you grow up. Since you were ten and eight years old, you have had a long-term relationship with our welfare home. Aunt Zhou would like to thank you for being such kind children. Your arrival has brought so much warmth and happiness to the children. Thank you!"

Aunt Zhou bowed deeply. She was running the welfare home by herself and had seen too many people’s indifference and hypocrisy. How many people said they were doing charity but were just doing it on the surface? As for these two children, although they didn’t do much, they really cared about these children…

She was truly grateful.

Gu Min and Mu Qingnian quickly stood up, went on stage to help the man, and said hurriedly, "Aunt Zhou, this is what we should do. There is nothing to thank you for. Please don't be polite."

Perhaps infected by such a sincere atmosphere, the children sitting in the audience began to cry one after another... Although they are still young, they know clearly who is good to them. The company of Brother Gu and Sister Mu for more than a month is their happiest time...

"Brother Gu, Sister Mu, we can't bear to part with you!"

In an instant, the audience burst into tears, and the people on the stage also had tears in their eyes...
