However, they were all very obedient. They did not fight for it at all. They lined up in an orderly manner and thanked her obediently after taking one.
Although the steamed buns were white steamed buns that they rarely ate, they were all anticipating the charity hall, and could not focus on the delicious steamed buns at all.
Finally, when they finished eating the steamed buns, the door of the charity hall opened from the inside.
For a moment, hundreds of sparkling eyes stared at the door in unison.
The Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who pushed open the door and came out, was stared at by so many pairs of eyes. He coughed lightly and said loudly, “Alright, everyone can enter in an orderly manner. After entering, register according to the instructions and take your things. If anyone makes trouble, don’t blame this official for chasing you out! Benshan Hall only accepts children under the age of 15. Those older than 15 can leave on their own.”
All the children stood nervously, afraid that they would not be able to move in if they did not do a good job.
Following the order of the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, the child in the first place walked in nervously and expectantly.
Because they were too nervous, many children walked with the same hands and feet.
After entering, they first registered their names and ages with an older man. Most of these wandering children did not have their own household registration, so after registering their names and ages, they had to go to the Ministry of Revenue to register them.
However, because many children were too young or had been wandering for too long, they could not remember their previous names and family situation, so they had a lot of difficulties in registering.
A child looked at the Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and asked,
“Sir, how do I register without a surname?”
The Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Revenue did not really want to make a decision, so he asked the person with the highest status here, Jian Qingqing.
Jian Qingqing pondered for a moment and said, “If you don’t have a surname, your surname will now be Wei. Your surname is to let you always remember the kindness of His Majesty and Great Wei. In the future, you must not do anything that harms the interests of Great Wei.”
All the children nodded in understanding, but they were very happy that they finally had a surname. They thanked him excitedly, “Thank you, Princess
Ding’an!”
Looking at their unfamiliar salutations, Jian Qingqing smiled and let them get up, saying, “You’re welcome. You have to know that everything you have now is given by His Majesty. You must be grateful in the future. When you grow up, you have the ability to make your own contributions to Great Wei.” Everyone nodded in unison and said loudly, “We definitely will!”
After registering, they would have a family in the future. A kind woman brought people to deliver two sets of fitting clothes to them.
Everyone looked at the clothes in their hands in shock and asked in disbelief, “This… Is this for us?”
They did not expect this charity to be so good. Not only did it provide them with a place to live, but it also gave them clothes to wear!
Jian Qingqing smiled and nodded, “Yes, you should change your clothes. In the future, wear these two sets. These clothes are the same. After you wear them, everyone will know your identity.”
“All homeless children can come here to live and will be provided with three free meals a day. All of this only guarantees that you will be able to eat and live without worry before you turn 15. After you turn 15, you will have to go out to make a living. At that time, I hope that those who are doing well will return the favor to the charity hall. I wish everyone a happy life here.” When she said this, everyone was stunned for a long time..
